CAUTION
Always be sure to clean the area around any filler plug, drain plug, or dipstick before
checking or draining any lubricant. This is especially important in dusty or sandy
areas and when the vehicle is used on unpaved roads. Cleaning the plug and dipstick
areas will prevent dirt and grit from entering the engine and other mechanisms that
could be damaged.
Engine oil viscosity (thickness) has an effect on fuel economy and cold weather
operating (engine start and engine oil flowability). Lower viscosity engine oils can
provide better fuel economy and cold weather performance, however, higher viscosity
engine oils are required for satisfactory lubrication in hot weather. Using oils of any
viscosity other than those recommended could result in engine damage.
When choosing an oil, consider the range of temperature your vehicle will be operated
in before the next oil change.
Proceed to select the recommended oil viscosity from the chart.

For better fuel economy, it is recommended to use the engine oil of a viscosity grade
SAE 0W30 API SN PLUS / SP or ILSAC GF-6.
An engine oil displaying this American Petroleum Institute (API)
Certification Mark conforms to the International Lubricant
Specification Advisory Committee (ILSAC). It is recommended to
only use engine oils that uphold this API Certification Mark.

Charging System Warning
Light
This warning light illuminates:
• When there is a malfunction with either the alt
ernator or electrical
charging system
If there is a malfunction with either the
alternator
or electrical charging system:
1. Drive carefully to the nearest safe loca
tion and stop your vehicle.
2. Turn the engine off and check the alternator drive belt for looseness or
breakage.
If the belt is adjusted properly, there may
be a problem in the electrical charging
system.
In this case, have the vehicle inspected
by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer as
soon as possible.
Engine Oil Level Warning
Light
The engine oil level warning light
illuminates when the engine oil level
should be checked.
If the warning light comes on, check the
engine oil level as soon as possible and
add engine oil as required.
Slowly pour the recommended oil little
by little into a funnel. (Oil refill capacity :
approximately 0.6 ~ 1.0 ℓ)
Use only the specified engine oil. (Refer
to “Recommended lubricants and
capacities” in chapter 2.)
Do not overfill the engine oil. Make sure
the oil level is not above F (Full) mark on
the dipstick.
Information
• If you travel approximately 30 ~ 60
miles (50 km ~100 km) after the engine
warms up, after adding the engine oil,
the warning light will go off.
• Cycle the ignition from OFF to ON 3
times within 10 seconds, the warning
light will go off immediately. However,
when you turn off the warning light
without adding the engine oil, the light
will come on again after traveling
approximately 30 ~ 60 miles (50 ~ 100
km) after the engine warms up.
NOTICE
If the light comes on continuously after
adding the engine oil and travelling
approximately 30 ~ 60 miles (50~100
km) after the engine warms up, have
the system checked by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
Even if this light doesn’t come on after
the engine has started, the engine oil
level should be periodically checked
and topped up if required.

ENGINE OIL
Checking the Engine Oil Level
Engine oil is used for lubricating,
cooling, and operating various hydraulic
components in the engine. Engine oil
consumption while driving is normal,
and it is necessary to check and refill the
engine oil regularly. Also, check and refill
the oil level within the recommended
maintenance schedule to prevent
deterioration of oil performance.
Check the engine oil following the below
procedure.
1. Follow all of the oil manufacturer’s precautions.
2. Be sure the vehicle is on the level ground in P (Park) with the parking
brake set. If possible, block the
wheels.
3. Turn the engine on and allow the engine to reach normal operating
temperature.
4. Turn the engine off and wait about fifteen minutes for the oil to return to
the oil pan.
5. Pull the dipstick out, wipe it clean, and re-insert it fully.

6. Pull the dipstick out again and check the level. The level should be between
F and L.
7. If the oil level is below L, add enough oil to bring the level to F.
Use only the specified engine oil. (refer
to “Recommended Lubricants and
Capacities” in chapter 2).
