RECOMMENDED LUBRICANTS AND CAPACITIES
To help achieve proper engine and powertrain performance and durability, use
only lubricants of the proper quality. The correct lubricants also help promote
engine efficiency that results in improved fuel economy.
These lubricants and fluids are recommended for use in your vehicle.

2 : Engine oils labelled Energy Conserving Oil are now available. Along with other additional benefits, they con-
tribute to fuel economy by reducing the amount of fuel necessary to overcome engine friction. Often, these
improvements are difficult to measure in everyday driving, but in a year’s time, they can offer significant cost
and energy savings.

Engine Coolant Temperature
Gauge
OJS048104L
This gauge indicates the temperature
of the engine coolant when the igni-
tion switch is in the ON position.
NOTICE
If the gauge pointer moves beyond
the normal range area toward the
“130” position, it indicates over-
heating that may damage the
engine.
Do not continue driving with an
overheated engine. If your vehicle
overheats, refer to “If the Engine
Overheats” in chapter 7.
WARNING
Never remove the radiator cap or
reservoir cap when the engine is
hot. The engine coolant is under
pressure and could cause severe
burns. Wait until the engine is cool
before adding coolant to the reser-
voir.
Fuel Gauge
OAC3049005R
This gauge indicates the approximate
amount of fuel remaining in the fuel
tank.
i Information
‡ 7he fuel tank capacity is given in
chapter 2.
‡ 7he fuel gauge is supplemented by a
low fuel warning light, which will
illuminate when the fuel tank is
nearly empty.
‡ 2n inclines or curves, the fuel gauge
pointer may fluctuate or the low fuel
warning light may come on earlier
than usual due to the movement of
fuel in the tank.

Low engine oil (if equipped)
This warning message is displayed
when the engine oil level should be
checked.
If this warning message is displayed,
check the engine oil level as soon as
possible and add engine oil as
required.
Slowly pour the recommended oil lit-
tle by little into a funnel. (Oil refill
capacity : approximately 0.15 ~ 0.26
gal. (0.6 ~ 1.0 l)
Use only the specified engine oil.
(Refer to "Recommended lubricants
and capacities" in chapter 8.)
Do not overfill the engine oil. Make
sure the oil level is not above F (Full)
mark on the dipstick.
NOTICE
If the message is displayed contin-
uously after adding the engine oil
and travelling approximately
50~100 km after the engine warms
up, we recommend that the system
be checked by a HYUNDAI autho-
rised repairer.
Engine has overheated
(if equipped)
This warning message is displayed
when the engine coolant temperature
is above 120°C (248°F). This means
that the engine is overheated and
may be damaged.
If your vehicle is overheated, refer
to “Overheating” in chapter 7.
Check headlight (if equipped)
This warning message is displayed if
the headlamps are not operating
properly.
In addition, if a specific lamp(turn sig-
nal lamp etc.) is not operating proper-
ly, the warning message according to
a specific lamp (turn signal lamp etc.)
is displayed. A corresponding bulb
may need to be replaced.
Make sure to replace the burned out
bulb with a new one of the same watt-
age rating.
Check brake light (if equipped)
This warning message is displayed if
the stop lamps are not operating
properly. A lamp may need to be
replaced.
Make sure to replace the burned out
bulb with a new one of the same watt-
age rating.

Whilst driving
Hydroplaning
If the road is wet enough and you are
going fast enough, your vehicle may
have little or no contact with the road
surface and actually ride on the water.
The best advice is SLOW DOWN
when the road is wet.
The risk of hydroplaning increases
as the depth of tyre tread decreas-
es, refer to “Tyre replacement” in
chapter 8.
Driving in flooded areas
Avoid driving through flooded areas
unless you are sure the water is no
higher than the bottom of the wheel
hub. Drive through any water slowly.
Allow adequate stopping distance
because brake performance may be
reduced.
After driving through water, dry the
brakes by gently applying them sev-
eral times whilst the vehicle is moving
slowly.

Tyres

Under-inflation may overheat or dam-
age the tyres.
Do not install worn-out or damaged
tyres, which may reduce traction or
fail the braking operation.
i Information
1ever over-inflate your tyres above the
maximum inflation pressure, as speci-
fied on your tyres.
Fuel, engine coolant and engine
oil
Driving at higher speeds on the high-
way consumes more fuel and is less
efficient than driving at a slower, more

To prevent locks from freezing
To prevent the locks from being fro-
zen, 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

Use approved window washer anti-
freeze solution in system
To prevent the window washer from
being frozen, add authorized window
washer anti-freeze solution, as speci-
fied on the window washer container.
Window washer anti-freeze solution
is available from a HYUNDAI autho-
rised 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 posi-
tion.
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

Transmission) or in first 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 driv-
ing 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 condi-
tions, 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

coveralls, blanket, etc.
Do not place objects or materials

If your temperature gauge indicates
overheating, you experience a loss of
power, or hear loud pinging or knock-
ing, the engine may be overheating. If
this happens, you should:
1. Pull off the road and stop as soon
as it is safe to do so.
2. Place the shift lever in N (Neutral,
for Automated manual transmis-
sion vehicle) or neutral (for Manual
transmission vehicle) and set the
parking brake. If the air condition-
ing is ON, turn it OFF.
3. If engine coolant is running out
under the vehicle or steam is com-
ing out from the bonnet, stop the
engine. Do not open the bonnet
until the coolant has stopped run-
ning or the steaming has stopped.
If there is no visible loss of engine
coolant and no steam, leave the
engine running and check to be
sure the engine cooling fan is oper-
ating. If the fan is not running, turn
the engine off.

6. If you cannot find the cause of the
overheating, wait until the engine
temperature has returned to nor-
mal. Then, if coolant has been lost,
carefully add coolant to the reser-
voir to bring the fluid level in the
reservoir up to the halfway mark.
7. Proceed with caution, keeping
alert for further signs of overheat-
ing. If overheating happens again,
we recommend that you call a
HYUNDAI authorised repairer for
assistance.
