MAINTENANCE ITEMS
F060D01A-AAT
o Fuel Lines, Fuel Hoses and
Connections
Check the fuel lines, fuel hoses and connec-
tions for leakage and damage. Have a trained
techincian, replace any damaged or leaking
parts immediately.
F060C01A-AATo Fuel Filter
A clogged filter can limit the speed at which the
vehicle may be driven, damage the emission
system and cause hard starting. If an excessive
amount of foreign matter accumulates in the fuel
tank, the filter may require replacement more
frequently.
After installing a new filter, run the engine for
several minutes, and check for leaks at the
connections.
Fuel filters should be installed by trained techni-
cians.
F060M01A-AAT

4CHECKING THE ENGINE OIL
G030A01A-AAT
Engine oil is essential to the performance and
service of the engine. It is suggested that you
check the oil level at least once a week in
normal use and more often if you are on a trip or
driving in severe conditions.
G030B01A-AATRecommended Oil
SH, SG or SG/CD (API) multi-grade and fuel
efficient oil is recommended.
G030A02AG030C02A-AAT
To Check the Oil Level
Before checking the oil, warm up the engine to
the normal operating temperature and be sure it
is parked on level ground. Turn the engine off.
Wait five minutes, then remove the dipstick,
wipe it off, fully reinsert the dipstick and with-
draw it again. Then note the highest level the oil
has reached on the dipstick. It should be be-
tween the upper ("F") and lower ("L") range.
G030D01A-AAT
Adding Oil
If the oil level is close to or below the "L" mark,
add oil until it reaches the "F" mark. To add oil:
1. Remove the oil filler cap by turning it counter-
clockwise.
2. Add oil, then check the level again. Do not
overfill.
3. Replace the cap by turning it clockwise.
The distance between the "F" and "L" marks is
equal to about 1 quart of oil.

WARNING:Be very careful when draining the engine oil
as it may be hot enough to burn you!
4. When the oil has stopped draining, replace
the drain plug using a new washer and re-
tighten by turning it clockwise.
Oil pan drain plug tightening torque:
3.5 ~ 4.5 kgf.m
5. Remove the oil filter by turning it counter-
clockwise with a oil filter wrench of the proper
size. A certain amount of oil will come out
when you remove the filter. So be sure to
have your drain pan in place underneath it.
6. Install a new oil filter in accordance with the
instructions on the carton or on the filter
itself. Do not over-tighten (Tightening torque
: 1.2 ~ 1.6 kgf.m).
Be sure that the mounting surface on the
engine is clean and that the old gasket is
removed completely. Lubricate the new gas-
ket on the filter before installation with clean
engine oil.7. Refill the crankcase with the recommended
engine oil. Refer to the specification in chap-
ter 9 for engine oil capacity.
8. Start the engine and check to be sure no oil
is leaking from the drain plug or oil filter.
9. Shut off the engine and recheck the oil
level.NOTE:Always dispose of used engine oil in an
environmentally acceptable manner. It is sug-
gested that it be placed in a sealed container
and taken to a service station for reclama-
tion. Do not pour the oil on the ground or put
it in with the household trash.
The engine oil and filter should be changed at
those intervals specified in the maintenance
schedule in Section 5. If the car is being driven
in severe conditions, more frequent oil and filter
changes are required.
The procedure for changing the oil and filter is
as follows:
1. Park the car on level ground and set the
parking brake. Start the engine and let it
warm up until the needle on the temperature
gauge moves above the lowest mark. Turn
the engine off and place the gear selector
lever in "P" (automatic) or reverse gear
(manual transaxle).
2. Open the hood and remove the engine oil
filler cap.
!PROPOSITION 65 WARNING:Used engine oil may cause irritation or can-
cer of the skin if left in contact with the skin
for prolonged periods of time. Used engine
oil contains chemicals that have caused can-
cer in laboratory animals. Always protect
your skin by washing your hands thoroughly
with soap and warm water as soon as pos-
sible after handling used oil.

6CHECKING AND CHANGING
THE ENGINE COOLANT
!
G050A01A-AAT G050B01A-AAT
Recommended Engine Coolant
Use a high quality ethylene-glycol coolant in a
50/50 mix with water. The engine coolant should
be compatible with aluminum engine parts. Ad-
ditional corrosion inhibitors or additives should
not be used. The cooling system must be main-
tained with the correct concentration and type of
engine coolant to prevent freezing and corro-
sion.
Never allow the concentration of antifreeze to
exceed the 60% level or go below the 35% level
or damage to the coolant system may result. For
proper concentration when adding or replacing
the coolant, refer to the following table.WARNING:Do not remove the radiator cap when the
engine is hot. When the engine is hot, the
engine coolant is under pressure and may
erupt through the opening if the cap is re-
moved. You could be seriously burned if you
do not observe this precaution. Do not re-
move the radiator cap until the radiator is
cool to the touch.

To Check the Coolant Level
The coolant level can be seen on the side of the
plastic coolant reservoir. The level of the coolant
should be between the "L" and "F" lines on the
reservoir when the engine is cool. If the level is
below the "L" mark, add engine coolant to bring
it up between "L" and "F". If the level is low,
inspect for coolant leaks and recheck the fluid
level frequently. If the level drops again, visit
your Hyundai dealer for an inspection and diag-
nosis of the reason.
