 WARNING
Performing maintenance work on a 
vehicle can be dangerous. If you lack 
sufficient knowledge and experience or 
the proper tools and equipment to do 
the work, we recommend that having it 
done by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer. 
ALWAYS follow these precautions for 
performing maintenance work:
•	Park your vehicle on level ground. 
Shift the vehicle to P (Park), apply 
the parking brake, and press the 
Engine Start/Stop button to the OFF 
position.
•	 Block the tires (front and back) to 
prevent the vehicle from moving.
Remove loose clothing or jewelry 
that can become entangled in 
moving parts.
•	 If you must run the engine during 
maintenance, do so out doors or in 
an area with plenty of ventilation.
•	 Keep flames, sparks, or smoking 
materials away from the battery and 
fuel-related parts.
 WARNING
Touching metal parts
Do not touch metal parts (including 
strut bars) while the engine is operating 
or hot. Doing so could result in serious 
personal injury. Turn the engine off and 
wait until the metal parts cool down 
to perform maintenance work on the 
vehicle. The following lists are vehicle checks and 
inspections that should be performed 
by the owner or an authorized HYUNDAI 
dealer at the frequencies indicated to 
help ensure safe, dependable operation 
of your vehicle.
Any adverse conditions should be 
brought to the attention of your dealer as 
soon as possible.
These Owner Maintenance vehicle 
checks are generally not covered by 
warranties and you may be charged for 
labor, parts and lubricants used.
