NOTICE
• It is permissible to add 20 kPa (3 psi) to the standard tire pressure specification if
colder temperatures are expected soon. Tires typically lose 7 kPa (1 psi) for every
7°C (12°F) temperature drop. If extreme temperature variations are expected,
recheck your tire pressures as necessary to keep them properly inflated.
• As air pressure generally decreases, as you drive up to a high-altitude area above
sea level. Thus, if you plan to drive a high-altitude area, check the tire pressures in
advance. If necessary, inflate them to a proper level (Air inflation per altitude: +10
kPa/1 km (+2.4 psi/1 mile)).
CAUTION
When replacing tires, ALWAYS use the same size, type, brand, construction and
tread pattern supplied with the vehicle. If not, replaced tires can damage the related
parts or make them work irregularly.

EXPLANATION OF SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE ITEMS
Cooling system
Check the cooling system parts, such
as radiator, coolant reservoir, hoses and
connections for leakage and damage.
Replace any damaged parts.
Coolant
The coolant should be changed at the
intervals specified in the maintenance schedule.
Reduction gear fluid
The reduction gear fluid should be
inspected according to the intervals
specified in the maintenance schedule.
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 “MIN” and “MAX” marks on the
side of the reservoir. Use only hydraulic
brake fluid conforming to DOT 3 or DOT 4
specification.
Brake pads, calipers and rotors
Check the pads for excessive wear, discs
for run out and wear, and calipers for
fluid leakage.
For more information on checking the
pads or lining wear limit, refer to the
HYUNDAI web site.

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, 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/
compressor
Check the air conditioning lines and
connections for leakage and damage.
