Maintenance
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.
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
periodically for proper tension and
adjusted as necessary.
CAUTION
When you are inspecting the belt, place
the ignition switch to the lock/off or
ACC position.
Fuel filter (Except Europe)
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.
We recommend that the fuel filter be
replaced by a HYUNDAI authorised
repairer.
Fuel filter (For Europe)
This petrol powered vehicle is equipped
with a lifetime fuel filter that is
integrated with the fuel tank. Regular
maintenance or replacement is not
needed; however, the quality of fuel
used may impact the frequency of
maintenance needed. If there are any
fuel related problems like fuel flow
restriction, surging, loss of power,
hard starting problem etc, fuel filter
inspection or replacement may be
needed. We recommend the fuel filter
be inspected or replaced by a HYUNDAI
authorised repairer.
Fuel lines, fuel hoses and
connections
Check the fuel lines, fuel hoses and
connections for leakage and damage.
We recommend that the fuel lines, fuel
hoses and connections be replaced by a
HYUNDAI authorised repairer.
Vapour hose and fuel filler cap
The vapour hose and fuel filler cap
should be inspected at those intervals
specified in the maintenance schedule.
Make sure that a new vapour hose or
fuel filler cap is correctly replaced.
EXPLANATION OF SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE ITEMS

9-88
Maintenance
The emission control system of your
vehicle is covered by a written limited
warranty. Please see the warranty
information contained in the Service
Passport in your vehicle.
Your vehicle is equipped with an
emission control system to meet all
emission regulations.
There are three emission control systems
which are as follows.
(1) Crankcase emission control system
(2) Evaporative emission control system
(3) Exhaust emission control system
In order to ensure the proper function
of the emission control systems, it is
recommended that you have your car
inspected and maintained by a HYUNDAI
authorised repairer in accordance
with the maintenance schedule in this
manual.
NOTICE
For the Inspection and Maintenance
Test (with Electronic Stability Control
(ESC) system)

[ 7RSUHYHQWWKHYHKLFOHIURPPLVILULQJ
during dynamometer testing, turn
the Electronic Stability Control
(ESC) system off by pressing the ESC
switch.

[ $IWHUG\QDPRPHWHUWHVWLQJLV
completed, turn the ESC system back
on by pressing the ESC switch again.
1. Crankcase emission control
system
The positive crankcase ventilation
system is employed to prevent air
pollution caused by blow-by gases
being emitted from the crankcase. This
system supplies fresh filtered air to the
crankcase through the air intake hose.
Inside the crankcase, the fresh air mixes
with blow-by gases, which then pass
through the PCV valve into the induction
system.
2. Evaporative emission control
system
The Evaporative Emission Control
System is designed to prevent fuel
vapours from escaping into the
atmosphere.
Canister
Fuel vapours generated inside the fuel
tank are absorbed and stored in the
onboard canister. When the engine is
running, the fuel vapours absorbed in
the canister are drawn into the surge
tank through the purge control solenoid
valve.
Purge Control Solenoid Valve
(PCSV)
The purge control solenoid valve
is controlled by the Engine Control
Module (ECM); when the engine coolant
temperature is low during idling, the
PCSV closes so that evaporated fuel
is not taken into the engine. After
the engine warms up during ordinary
driving, the PCSV opens to introduce
evaporated fuel to the engine.

level. If you run out of petrol, it could
cause the engine to misfire and result
in excessive loading of the catalytic
converter.
Failure to observe these precautions
could result in damage to the catalytic
converter and to your vehicle.
Additionally, such actions could void
your warranties.
Petrol Particulate Filter (GPF)
(if equipped)
The Petrol Particulate Filter (GPF) system
removes the soot in the exhaust gas.
The GPF system automatically burns
(or oxidizes) the accumulated soot in
accordance with driving situations,
unlike a disposable air filter.
In other words, the accumulated soot is
automatically purged out by the engine
control system and by the high exhaust-
gas temperature at normal/ high driving
speeds.
However, when the vehicle is continually
driven at repeated short distances or
driven at low speed for a long time,
the accumulated soot may not be
automatically removed because of low
exhaust gas temperature. In this case,
the accumulated soot may reach a
certain amount regardless of the soot
oxidization process, then the GPF lamp
will illuminate.
The Petrol Particulate Filter (GPF) Lamp
stops illuminating, when the driving
speed exceeds 80 km/h (50 mph) with
the engine at 1,500- 4,000 rpm and the
gear in the 3rd position or above for
approximately 30 minutes.When the GPF lamp starts to blink or
the waning message “Check exhaust
system” pops up even though the
vehicle was driven as mentioned above,
we recommend that you have the
GPF system checked by a HYUNDAI
authorised repairer.
With the GPF lamp blinking for an
extended period of time, it may damage
the GPF system and lower the fuel
economy.
WARNING
Petrol Fuel
(if equipped with GPF)
We recommend you to use only the
regulated petrol fuels, when your
vehicle is equipped with the GPF
system.
When you use other petrol fuels which
contain unspecified additives, they
may damage the GPF system and cause
exhaust emission problems.
