D030A01TB-EAT If the temperature gauge indicates overheating:
1. Pull off the road and stop as soon as
it is safe to do so.
2. Place the gear selector lever in "P"
(automatic), or neutral (manual transaxle) and set the parking brake. If the air conditioning is on, turn it off.
3. If coolant is running out under the car or steam is coming out from thebonnet, stop the engine. Do not open the bonnet until the coolanthas stopped running or the steam- ing has stopped. If there is no visible loss of coolant and no steam, leavethe engine running and check to be sure the engine cooling fan is oper- ating.If the fan is not running, turn the engine off.
4. Check to see if the water pump drive belt is missing. If it is not missing,check to see that it is tight. If the drive belt seems to be satisfactory,check for coolant leaking from the radiator, hoses or under the car. (If the air conditioning had been in use,it is normal for cold water to be draining from it). WARNING:
Whilst the engine is running, keep hands and clothing away from mov-ing parts such as the fan and drive belts to prevent injury.
WARNING (Diesel only):
Never work on injection system with engine running or within 30 sec- onds after shutting off engine. High pressure pump, rail, injectors andhigh pressure pipes are subject to high pressure even after the engine stopped. The fuel jet produced byfuel leaks may cause serious in- jury, if it touch the body. People using pacemakers should not movethan 12 in.(30 cm) closer to the ECU or wiring harness within the engine room whilst engine is running, sincethe high currents in the Common Rail system produce considerable magnetic fields. 5. If the water pump drive belt is broken
or coolant is leaking out, stop theengine immediately and call the near- est Hyundai dealer for assistance.
!WARNING:
Do not remove the radiator cap when the engine is hot since steam and boiling water may be ejected fromthe radiator resulting in burns or scalding.
6. If the cause of the overheating can- not be found, wait until the engine temperature has returned to nor- mal. Then, if coolant has been lost, carefully remove the radiator capand add water to bring the fluid level in the reservoir up to the base of the radiator fill opening. Fill the coolantexpansion tank to the halfway mark.
7. Proceed with caution until it is es-
tablished that the engine is operat-ing normally. If the engine over- heats repeatedly, the advice of a Hyundai dealer should be sought.

5VEHICLE MAINTENANCE REQUIREMENTS
2MAINTENANCE AND SER- VICING REQUIREMENTS
SF020A1-E To ensure the continued reliability and safety of the vehicle, certain routine maintenance operations are requiredat specific mileage or time intervals.It is the responsibility of the vehicleowner to ensure that the maintenanceschedules shown in both this Owners Manual and the Warranty and Service Passport are adhered to.The new vehicle warranty may beinvalidated if the routine maintenanceoperations are not performed in line with the recommendations outlined and the safety and durability of thevehicle adversely affected.It is recommended that all mainte-nance operations with the exceptionof the daily operating checks are en- trusted to a Hyundai dealer to ensure that the latest repair and maintenanceprocedures and specialized servicing tools are employed. In addition, the use of genuine Hyundai replacementparts will ensure that the vehicle safety and performance will not be compro- mised. NOTE:
The inspection and testing of cer-
tain electronic fuel injection/engine management and automatic trans- mission control systems requirespecialised electronic equipment specifically designed for Hyundai vehicles. The use of general pur-pose electrical test equipment may result in damage to the control unit microprocessors.
SF020C2-E
Specified Scheduled Procedures
The Specified scheduled procedures
are listed in the maintenance chartsbeginning at page 5-3. The opera- tions specified must be performed at the time or mileage intervals shownirrespective of whether the mileage interval has been reached before the specified time interval. Certain lubricants and components
degrade with both time and mileage(e.g. engine oil and brake fluid) and therefore it is not permissable to base the maintenance schedule upon mile-age alone. It is strongly recommended that the maintenance operations are performed by the factory-trained or distributor-trained technicians at yourHyundai dealer because of the need for specialized knowledge and tooling and to ensure that no possibility ofinvalidating the manufacturers war- ranty exists.
The maintenance schedules relate to
vehicles operated under normal con-ditions, vehicles which are operated under adverse conditions will requiremore frequent maintenance which is described at page 5-6. NOTE:
Service schedules may change de-
pending on individual country needs. Please ask your local Hyundai dealer for a copy of the service schedule that relates to thatcountry.
SF030B1-E
SERVICE HISTORY
It is important that all scheduled main-
tenance services are recorded in thewarranty and service passport to en-sure that proof of maintenance is avail- able when warranty service is required.

!
6ZF060M1-A
o Engine oil and filter
The engine oil and filter should be changed at the intervals specified in the maintenance schedule. If the car is being driven in severe conditions,more frequent oil and filter changes are required. 6ZF060B1-A
o Drive belts
Inspect all drive belts for evidence of cuts, cracks, excessive wear or oil saturation and replace if necessary. Drive belts should be checked peri-odically for proper tension and ad- justed as necessary. 6ZF060C1-A
o Fuel filter
A clogged filter can limit the speed at
which the vehicle may be driven, dam-age the emission system and cause hard starting. If an excessive amountof foreign matter accumulates in the fuel tank, the filter may require re- placement more frequently. After installing a new filter, run the
engine for several minutes, and checkfor leaks at the connections.
F060D01TB-EAT
o Fuel lines, fuel hoses and con-
nections
Check the fuel lines, fuel hoses and
connections for leakage and damage.Replace any damaged or leaking partsimmediately. WARNING (Diesel only):
Never work on injection system with engine running or within 30 seconds after shutting off engine.High pressure pump, rail, injectors and high pressure pipes are sub- jected to high pressure even afterthe engine has been switched off. The fuel jet produced by fuel leaks may cause serious injury, if it con-tacts with the body. People using pacemakers should not move closer than 12 in.(30 cm) to the ECUor wiring harness within the engine room with the engine running, since the high currents in the CommonRail system produce considerable magnetic fields.

o Fluid leakage. The vehicle must not be driven if the daily operating checks indicate thatany item of equipment related to the safety or roadworthiness of the vehicle is not functioning correctly. G030A01FC-EAT The correct engine oil level is of para- mount importance. An excessively high or low oil level may result in irreparable damage being sustained by the engine.The engine oil level must be checked on a daily basis, whenever the vehicle is refuelled or before starting a long trip,whichever occurs sooner. In addition, it is imperative that only an approved grade and specification of oilis used to avoid the possibility of seri- ous engine damage and premature wear. The use of "budget price" oil is a falseeconomy that must be avoided if the maximum reliability and useful life is to be obtained from the vehicle.
G030B02O-EAT Recommended Oil
1. Petrol Engine The engine oil quality should meet the following classification. API SJ, SL or ABOVE, ILSAC GF-3 or ABOVE The oil viscosity should be selected according to the operating environment of the engine by means of the tableshown above. The engine oil recom- mendations are complete in themselves and the use of additives is neitherrequired nor recommended. The use of engine oil additives may result in invali- dation of the vehicle warranty.

SG030C1-E Engine Oil Level Diesel engine The engine oil level should be checked with the engine at normal operatingtemperature and the vehicle parked upon level ground. Prior to checking the level, the vehicleshould be allowed to stand for several minutes after the engine has been switched off to allow the oil to drainback to the sump. Withdraw the dipstick and wipe it with a clean rag. Replace the dipstick fullyand withdraw again when the oil level may be read from the stick. Normal oil level is indicated when the oil is presentbetween the two marks on the stick. It is not necessary to add oil if the level is above the lower mark and in any case,oil must not be added to the degree that the level exceeds the upper mark. Re- place the dipstick fully after checkingthe level.
