6MAINTENANCE PRECAU- TIONS
!
G020D01TG-GAT Improper or incomplete service may result in problems. This section gives instructions only for the maintenance items that are easy to perform.Several procedures should be done by an authorized Hyundai dealer. NOTE: Improper owner maintenance dur- ing the warranty period may affect warranty coverage. WARNING:
o Performing maintenance work on a vehicle can be dangerous. Youcan be seriously injured while performing some maintenance procedures. If you lack sufficientknowledge and experience or the proper tools and equipment to do the work, have it done by an autho-rized Hyundai dealer.
o Working under the hood with the
engine running is dangerous. It becomes even more dangerous when you wear jewelry or looseclothing. These can become en- tangled in moving parts and result in injury. Therefore, if you mustrun the engine while working un- der the hood, make certain that you remove all jewelry (especiallyrings, bracelets, watches, and necklaces) and all neckties, scarves, and similar loose cloth-ing before getting near the engine or cooling fans.
CHECKING THE ENGINE OIL
G030A03O-GAT Recommended Oil Gasoline Engine
Engine oil is essential to the perfor- mance and service of the engine. It is suggested that you check the oil level at least once a week in normal use andmore often if you are on a trip or driving in severe conditions. The engine oil quality should meet thefollowing classification. API Service SM* or above, ILSAC GF-4 or above
* If the API service SM engine oil is not available in your country, you are able to use API service SL. G030B01JM
5W-20*, 5W-30

G030B04FC-GAT Recommended Oil Diesel Engine Engine oil is essential to the perfor- mance and service of the engine. It issuggested that you check the oil level every 500km or before starting a long trip and more often if you are driving insevere conditions. The engine oil quality should meet the following classification: API class: CH-4 or ABOVE ACEA class: B4
NOTE:
o SAE 5W-20* (5W-30), ILSAC GF-4
engine oil is preferred regardless of regional option and enginevariation.
o If SAE 5W-20*, ILSAC GF-4 engine
oil is not available, SAE 5W-30 orsecondary recommended engine oil for corresponding temperature range can be used.
* : In Middle East, do not use the engine oil of viscosity grade SAE 5W-20.
NOTE: SAE 0W-30 oil is for extra cold zone and to be restricted by driving con- dition and dealing area. (Especially,not recommended for sustained high loaded and high speed opera- tion.)

G350A01A-GAT ENGINE OIL CONSUMPTION Function of Engine Oil Engine oil has the primary function of lubricating and cooling the inside of theengine. Engine oil consumption It is normal that an engine should consume some engine oil while nor-
mal driving. The cause of oil consump- tion in a normal engine are as follows;
o Engine oil is used to lubricate pis- tons, piston rings and cylinders. A thin film of oil is left on the cylinder wall when a piston moves down- wards in the cylinder. High negativepressure generated during engine operation sucks some of the oil into the combustion chamber.This oil with some oil of the cylinder wall is burned by the high tempera- ture combustion gases during thecombustion process.
NOTE:
o It is recommended that the engine
oil and filter should be changed by an authorized Hyundai dealer.
o Always dispose of used engine oil in an environmentally acceptablemanner. It is suggested that it beplaced in a sealed container and taken to a service station for maybe reclaimation. Do not pour the oilon the ground or put it into the household trash.
!WARNING:
Used motor oil may cause irritation or cancer of the skin if left in contact with the skin for prolonged periodsof time. Wash your hands thoroughly with soap and warm water as soon as possible after handling used 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 counterclockwise.
2. Add oil, then check the level again.
Do not overfill.
3. Replace the cap by turning it clock- wise.
The distance between the "F" and "L" marks is equal to about 1 liter(Gasoline Engine)/1.5 liter(Diesel Engine) of oil.
WARNING:
Be very careful not to touch the radia-tor hose when adding the engine oilas it may be hot enough to burn you. CAUTION:
Slowly pour the recommended oilby using a funnel. Do not overfill soas not to damage engine.

G140B01A-AAT Checking the Air Conditioning Operation
1. Start the engine and let it run at afast idle for several minutes with the air conditioning set at the maximum cold setting.
2. If the air coming out of the in-dash vents is not cold, have the air condi-tioning system inspected by yourHyundai dealer.
G140C01A-AAT Lubrication To lubricate the compressor and the seals in the system, the air conditioning should be run for at least 10 minuteseach week. This is particularly important during cool weather when the air condi- tioning system is not otherwise in use.
! CAUTION:
Running the air conditioning sys- tem for extended periods of time with a low refrigerant level may damage the compressor.
AIR CONDITIONING CARE
G140A01A-AAT Keeping the Condenser Clean The air conditioning condenser (and engine radiator) should be checkedperiodically for accumulation of dirt, dead insects, leaves, etc. These can interfere with maximum cooling effi-ciency. When removing such accumu- lations, brush or hose them away care- fully to avoid bending the cooling fans.CHECKING THE CLUTCH FLUID
G130A01A-AAT (If Installed) To Check the Clutch Fluid The clutch fluid level in the master cylinder should be checked when per- forming other under hood services. Thesystem should be checked for leakage at the same time. Check to make certain that the clutchfluid level is between the "MAX" and "MIN" level markings on the fluid reser- voir. Fill as required. Fluid loss indi-cates a leak in the clutch system which should be inspected and repaired im- mediately. Consult your Hyundai dealer.

!WARNING:
o Driving on worn-out tires is dan- gerous! Worn-out tires can cause
loss of braking effectiveness, steering control and traction. When replacing tires, never mixradial and bias-ply tires on the same car. If you replace radial tires with bias-ply tires, they mustbe installed in sets of four.
o Using tires and wheels of other
than the recommended sizes maycause unusual handling charac- teristics that may cause death, serious injury or property dam-age.
o Tires degrade over time, even when
they are not being used. Regard- less of the remaining tread, it isrecommended that tires tread, It isrecommended that tires generallybe replaced after 6 years of normalservice. Heat caused by hot cli-mates or frequent high loadingconditions can accelerate the ag-ing process. Failure to follow this Warning canresult in sudden tire failure, whichcould lead to a loss of control andan accident involving serious in-jury or death.
o The ABS works by comparing the speed of the wheels. Tire size can affect wheel speed. When replac- ing tires, all 4 tires must use thesame size originally supplied with the vehicle. Using tires of a differ- ent size can cause the ABS (Anti-lock Brake System) and ESP (Elec- tronic Stability Program) (If In- stalled) to work irregularly.
