I : Inspect and if necessary, adjust, correct, clean or replace.
R : Replace or change.
*
1: Inspect drive belt tensioner, idler and alternator pulley and if necessary correct or replace.
*2: Check the engine oil level for leaks every 500 km or before starting a long trip.
*3 : The engine oil level should be checked regularly and maintained properly. Operating with an insufficient amount of oil can dam-
age the engine, and such damage is not covered by warranty.
*
4: This maintenance schedule depends on fuel quality. It is applicable only when using a qualified fuel <"EN590 or equivalent">.
If the diesel fuel specifications don't meet the EN590, it must be replaced more frequently. HYUNDAI recommends "every
7,500km inspection, every 15,000km replacement". If there are some important safety matters like fuel flow restriction, surg-
ing, loss of power, hard starting problem etc., replace the fuel filter immediately regardless of maintenance schedule. We rec-
ommend that you consult an authorised HYUNDAI dealer for details.

and re-insert it fully.6. Pull the dipstick out again and
check the level. The level should
be between F (Full) and L (Low).7. If it is near or at L, add enough oil

Checking the engine oil and filter
We recommend that the engine oil
and filter be replaced by an authorised
HYUNDAI dealer.
Used engine oil may cause irri-
tation or cancer of the skin if
left in contact with the skin for
prolonged periods of time. Used
engine oil contains chemicals
that have caused cancer in lab-
oratory animals. Always protect
your skin by washing your
hands thoroughly with soap
and warm water as soon as pos-
sible after handling used oil.

Checking the brake/clutch
fluid level
Check the fluid level in the reservoir
periodically. The fluid level should be
between MAX and MIN marks on the
side of the reservoir.
Before removing the reservoir cap
and adding brake/clutch fluid, clean
the area around the reservoir cap
thoroughly to prevent brake/clutch
fluid contamination.
If the level is low, add fluid to the MAX
level. The level will fall with accumulat-
ed kilometres. This is a normal condi-
tion associated with the wear of the
brake linings.If the fluid level is excessively low,
we recommend that the system be
checked by an authorised HYUNDAI
dealer.
Information
Use only the specified brake/clutch
fluid. Refer to Recommended lubri-
cants and capacities in chapter 8.
Information
Before removing the brake/clutch filler
cap, read the warning on the cap (if
equipped).
Information
Clean the filler cap before removing.
Use only DOT3 or DOT4 brake/clutch
fluid from a sealed container. Do not allow brake/clutch fluid
to contact the vehicle's body
paint, as paint damage will
result.
Brake/clutch fluid, which has
been exposed to open air for an
extended time should never be
used as its quality cannot be
guaranteed. It should be dis-
posed of properly.
Don't put in the wrong kind of
fluid. A few drops of mineral-
based oil, such as engine oil, in
your brake/clutch system can
damage system parts.
NOTICE

i
OPD077016R
If the brake/clutch system
requires frequent additions of
fluid this could indicate a leak in
the brake/clutch system. We
recommend that the vehicle be
inspected by an authorised
HYUNDAI dealer.
WARNING
Do not allow brake/clutch fluid
to come in contact with your
eyes. If brake/clutch fluid comes
in contact with your eyes, flush
your eyes with clean water for at
least 15 minutes and get imme-
diate medical attention.
