Engine Oil and Filter
The engine oil and filter should be
changed at the intervals specified in
the maintenance schedule. If the
vehicle is being driven in severe con-
ditions, more frequent oil and filter
changes are required.
Drive Belts
Inspect all drive belts for evidence of
cuts, cracks, excessive wear or oil
saturation and replace if necessary.
Drive belts should be checked peri-
odically for proper tension and
adjusted as necessary.
Fuel Filter
A clogged-up fuel filter may limit the
vehicle driving speed, damage the
emission system, and cause the
hard starting. When a considerable
amount of foreign substances are
accumulated in the fuel tank, the fuel
filter should be replaced.
Upon installing a new fuel filter, oper-
ate the engine for several minutes,
and check the connections for any
leakages. Fuel filters should be
installed by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer.
Fuel Lines, Fuel Hoses and
Connections
Check the fuel lines, fuel hoses and
connections for leakage and dam-
age. Have an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer replace any damaged or leak-
ing parts immediately.
Vapor Hose and Fuel Filler
Cap
The vapor hose and fuel filler cap
should be inspected at those inter-
vals specified in the maintenance
schedule. Make sure a new vapor
hose or fuel filler cap is correctly
replaced.
Vacuum Crankcase Ventilation
Hoses
Inspect the surface of hoses for evi-
dence of heat and/or mechanical
damage. Hard and brittle rubber,
cracking, tears, cuts, abrasions, and
excessive swelling indicate deterio-
ration. Particular attention should be
paid to examine those hose surfaces
nearest to high heat sources, such
as the exhaust manifold.
Inspect the hose routing to ensure
that the hoses do not come in con-
tact with any heat source, sharp
edges or moving component which
might cause heat damage or
mechanical wear. Inspect all hose
connections, such as clamps and
couplings, to make sure they are
secure, and that no leaks are pres-
ent. Hoses should be replaced
immediately if there is any evidence
of deterioration or damage.

7-14
Maintenance
Air Cleaner Filter
A genuine HYUNDAI air cleaner filter
is recommended when the filter is
replaced.
Spark Plugs
Make sure to install new spark plugs
of the correct heat range.
When assembling parts, be sure to
wipe out foreign substances inside
and outside of the boot bottom of the
ignition coil and the insulator of the
spark plug with a soft cloth to prevent
contamination of the spark plug insu-
lator.
Cooling System
Check cooling system components,
such as radiator, coolant reservoir,
hoses and connections for leakage
and damage. Replace any damaged
parts.
Engine Coolant
The coolant should be changed at
the intervals specified in the mainte-
nance schedule.
Automatic Transmission Fluid
Automatic transmission fluid should
not be checked under normal usage
conditions. But in severe conditions,
the fluid should be changed at an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer in
accordance to the scheduled mainte-
nance at the beginning of this chap-
ter.
Information
Automatic transmission fluid color is
red when new.
As the vehicle is driven, the automatic
transmission fluid will begin to look
darker. This is a normal condition and
you should not judge the need to
replace the fluid based upon the
changed color.The use of a non-specified fluid
could result in transmission mal-
function and failure. Use only the
specified automatic transmission
fluid (refer to "Recommended
Lubricants and Capacities" in
chapter 8).

Maintenance
Brake Hoses and Lines
Visually check for proper installation,
chafing, cracks, deterioration and
any leakage. Replace any deteriorat-
ed or damaged parts immediately.
Brake Fluid
Check the brake fluid level in the
brake fluid reservoir. The level should
be between the MIN and the MAX
marks on the side of the reservoir.
Use only hydraulic brake fluid con-
forming to DOT 3 or DOT 4 specifi-
cation.
Parking Brake
Inspect the parking brake system.
Brake Discs, Pads, Calipers
and Rotors
Check the pads for excessive wear,
discs for run out and wear, and
calipers for fluid leakage.
Exhaust Pipe and Muffler
Visually inspect the exhaust pipes,
muffler and hangers for cracks, dete-
rioration, or damage. Start the
engine and listen carefully for any
exhaust gas leakage. Tighten con-
nections or replace parts as neces-
sary.
Suspension Mounting Bolts
Check the suspension connections
for looseness or damage. Retighten
to the specified torque.
Steering Gear Box, Linkage &
Boots/Lower Arm Ball Joint
With the vehicle stopped and the
engine off, check for excessive free-
play in the steering wheel. Check the
linkage for bends or damage. Check
the dust boots and ball joints for
deterioration, cracks, or damage.
Replace any damaged parts.
Drive Shafts and Boots
Check the drive shafts, boots and
clamps for cracks, deterioration, or
damage. Replace any damaged
parts and, if necessary, repack the
grease.
Air Conditioning Refrigerant
Check the air conditioning lines and
connections for leakage and dam-
age.

Maintenance
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 regu-
larly. Also, check and refill the oil
level within the recommended main-
tenance schedule to prevent deterio-
ration of oil performance.
Check the engine oil following the
below procedure.
1. Follow all of the oil manufacturer'sprecautions.
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 warm the engine up until the coolant tem-
perature reaches a constant nor-
mal temperature. 4. Turn the engine off, remove the oil
filler cap and pull the dipstick out.
Wait for 15 minutes for the oil to
return to the oil pan.
5. Wipe the dipstick clean and re- insert it fully.
6. Pull the dipstick out again and check the level. 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 8).

Maintenance
To prevent damage to your engine:
Do not spill engine oil whenadding or changing engine oil.
Wipe off spilled oil immediately.
The engine oil consumption may increase while you break in a
new vehicle and it will be stabi-
lized after driving 4,000 miles
(6,000 km).
The engine oil consumption can be affected by driving habits, cli-
mate conditions, traffic condi-
tions, oil quality, etc. Therefore, it
is recommended that you
inspect the engine oil level regu-
larly and refill it if necessary.
Checking the Engine Oil and
Filter
Have engine oil and filter changed
by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer
according to the Maintenance
Schedule at the beginning of this
chapter.
If the maintenance schedule to
replace engine oil is exceeded, the
engine oil performance may deteri-
orate, and the engine condition
may be affected. Therefore,
replace the engine oil according to
the maintenance schedule.
To keep the engine in optimal con-
dition, use the recommended
engine oil and filter. If the recom-
mended engine oil and filter are
not used, replace it according to
the maintenance schedule under
severe usage conditions.
The purpose of the maintenance
schedule for engine oil replace-
ment is to prevent oil deterioration
and it is irrelevant to oil consump-
tion. Check and refill engine oil reg-
ularly.
NOTICE
The engine oil is very hot imme-
diately after the vehicle has
been driven and can cause
burns during replacement.
Replace the engine oil after the
engine oil has cooled down.
CAUTION
