8. Maintenance 

Maintenance8-4
You should exercise the utmost care 
to prevent damage to your vehicle and 
injury to yourself whenever performing 
any maintenance or inspection 
procedures.
We recommend you have your 
vehicle maintained and repaired by 
an authorized HYUNDAI dealer. An 
authorized HYUNDAI dealer meets 
HYUNDAI’s high service quality 
standards and receives technical support 
from HYUNDAI in order to provide you 
with a high level of service satisfaction.
Owner’s Responsibility
Maintenance service and record 
retention are the owner’s responsibility.
You should retain documents that show 
proper maintenance has been performed 
on your vehicle in accordance with 
the scheduled maintenance service 
charts shown on the following pages. 
You need this information to establish 
your compliance with the servicing 
and maintenance requirements of your 
vehicle warranties.
Detailed warranty information is 
provided in your Owner’s Handbook & 
Warranty Information booklet.
Repairs and adjustments required as a 
result of improper maintenance or a lack 
of required maintenance are not covered.
Owner Maintenance Precautions
Inadequate, incomplete or insufficient 
servicing may result in operational 
problems with your vehicle that could 
lead to vehicle damage, an accident, or 
personal injury. This chapter provides 
instructions only for the maintenance 
items that are easy to perform. Several 
procedures can be done only by an 
authorized HYUNDAI dealer with special 
tools.
Your vehicle should not be modified 
in any way. Such modifications may 
adversely affect the performance, safety 
or durability of your vehicle and may, in 
addition, violate conditions of the limited 
warranties covering the vehicle.
Certain modifications may also be in 
violation of regulations established by 
the U.S. Department of Transportation 
and other federal or state agencies.
NOTICE
Improper owner maintenance during 
the warranty period may affect 
warranty coverage. For details, read 
the separate Owner’s Handbook & 
Warranty Information booklet provided 
with the vehicle. If you’re unsure about 
any service or maintenance procedure, 
have it done by an authorized HYUNDAI 
dealer.
