Driving your vehicle
Check spark plugs and ignition system
Inspect the spark plugs, as specified
in the chapter 9. If necessary, replace
them. Also check all ignition wirings and
components for any cracks, wear-out,
and damage.
To prevent locks from freezing
To prevent the locks from being frozen,
spray approved de-icing fluid or glycerin
into key holes. When a lock opening is
already covered with ice, spray approved
de-icing fluid over the ice to remove it.
When an internal part of a lock freezes,
try to thaw it with a heated key. Carefully
use the heated key to avoid an injury.
Use approved window washer anti-
freeze solution in system
To prevent the window washer from
being frozen, add authorised window
washer anti-freeze solution, as specified
on the window washer container.
Window washer anti-freeze solution is
available from a HYUNDAI authorised
repairer, and most vehicle accessory
outlets. Do not use engine coolant or
other types of anti-freeze solution to
prevent any damage to the vehicle paint.
Do not let your parking brake freeze
Under some conditions your parking
brake can freeze in the engaged
position.
This is most likely to happen when
there is an accumulation of snow or
ice around or near the rear brakes or if
the brakes are wet. When there is the
risk that your parking brake may freeze,
temporarily apply it with the shift lever
in N (for Automatic Transmission/Dual
clutch transmission) or in the 1st gear or
reverse gear (for Manual transmission).
Also, block the rear wheels in advance,
so the vehicle may not roll. Then, release
the parking brake.Do not let ice and snow accumulate
underneath
Under some conditions, snow and ice
can build up under the fenders and
interfere with the steering. When driving
in such conditions during the severe
winter, you should check underneath
the vehicle on a regular basis, to ensure
that the front wheels and the steering
components is unblocked.
Carry emergency equipment
In accordance with weather conditions,
you should carry appropriate emergency
equipment, whilst driving. Some of the
items you may want to carry include tyre
chains, tow straps or chains, flashlight,
emergency flares, sand, shovel, jumper
cables, window scraper, gloves, ground
cloth, coveralls, blanket, etc.
Do not place objects or materials in the
engine compartment
Putting objects or materials in the
engine compartment may cause an
engine failure or combustion, because
they may block the engine cooling.
Such damage will not be covered by the
manufacturer’s warranty.

Vacuum crankcase ventilation
hoses (if equipped)
Inspect the surface of hoses for
evidence of heat and/or mechanical
damage. Hard and brittle rubber,
cracking, tears, cuts, abrasions, and
excessive swelling indicate deterioration.
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 assure that
the hoses do not come in contact 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 present.
Hoses should be replaced immediately if
there is any evidence of deterioration or
damage.
Air cleaner filter
We recommend that the air cleaner filter
be replaced by a HYUNDAI authorised
repairer.
Spark plugs
(for petrol engine)
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
insulator.
WARNING
Do not disconnect and inspect spark
plugs when the engine is hot. You may
burn yourself.
Cooling system
Check the cooling system parts, 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 maintenance
schedule.
Manual transmission fluid/iMT
system actuator fluid
(if equipped)
Inspect the Manual transmission fluid/
iMT system actuator fluid according to
the maintenance schedule.
Automatic transmission fluid
(if equipped)
Automatic transmission fluid should
not be checked under normal usage
conditions.
We recommend that the automatic
transmission fluid is changed by a
HYUNDAI authorised repairer according
to the maintenance schedule.
