Maintenance
9-12
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 conditions,
more frequent oil and filter changes are
required.
HSG (Hybrid Starter & Generator) Belt
The HSG belt should be changed at the
intervals specified in the maintenance schedule.
Fuel Lines, Fuel Hoses and Connections
Check the fuel lines, fuel hoses and
connections for leakage and damage.
We recommend an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer replace any damaged or leaking
parts immediately.
Fuel Filter
A clogged filter can limit the speed
at which the vehicle may be driven,
damage the emission system and cause
multiple issues such as hard starting. If
an excessive amount of foreign matter
accumulates in the fuel tank, the
filter may require replacement more
frequently. After installing a new filter,
run the engine for several minutes,
and check for leaks at the connections.
Fuel filters should be installed by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
Vapor Hose and Fuel Filler Cap
The vapor hose and fuel filler cap should
be inspected at those intervals specified
in the maintenance schedule. Make sure
a new vapor hose or fuel filler cap is
correctly replaced.
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 the 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 insulator.
Cooling System
Check cooling system components, such
as radiator, coolant reservoir, hoses and
connections for leakage and damage.
Replace any damaged parts.
Engine Coolant/Inverter Coolant
The coolant should be changed at the
intervals specified in the maintenance schedule.
Automatic Transmission Fluid
Automatic transmission fluid should
not be checked under normal usage conditions.
We recommend that the automatic
transmission fluid is changed by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer according to
the maintenance schedule.
Engine Clutch Actuator Fluid
The engine clutch actuator fluid level
should be inspected or replaced to the
intervals specified in the maintenance schedule.
EXPLANATION OF SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE ITEMS

9-13
Brake Hoses and lines
Visually check for proper installation,
chafing, cracks, deterioration and any
leakage. Replace any deteriorated 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 conforming to DOT
4 specification.
Parking Brake
Inspect the parking brake system.
Brake Discs, Pads, Calipers and
Rotors
Check the pads, the disc, and the rotor
for any excessive wear-out. Inspect
calipers for any fluid leakage
For more information on checking the
pads or lining wear limit, refer to the
HYUNDAI web site.
(http://service.hyundai-motor.com)
Exhaust Pipe and Muffler
Visually inspect the exhaust pipes,
muffler and hangers for cracks,
deterioration, or damage. Start
the engine and listen carefully for
any exhaust gas leakage. Tighten
connections or replace parts as
necessary.
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 hybrid
system 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 damage.
Propeller Shaft
Check the propeller shaft, boots, clamps,
rubber couplings and center-bearing
rubber for cracks, deterioration, or
damage. Replace any damaged parts
and if necessary, repack the grease.

Maintenance
9-14
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 and the wheels blocked.
3. Turn the engine on and warm the engine up until the coolant
temperature reaches a constant
normal 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.
OTMH090002
6. Pull the dipstick out again and check the level. The level should be between
F (Full) and L (Low).
OTMPH091012N
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” section in chapter 2).
NOTICE
To prevent damage to your engine:
[ Do not spill engine oil when adding
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 stabilized after
driving 6,000 km (4,000 miles).

[ The engine oil consumption can be
affected by driving habits, climate
conditions, traffic conditions,
oil quality, etc. Therefore, it is
recommended that you inspect the
engine oil level regularly and refill it
if necessary.
