VEHICLE MAINTENANCE REQUIREMENTS 5-5
6ZF060D1-A
o Fuel lines, fuel hoses and connec-
tions
Check the fuel lines, fuel hoses and connections for leakage and damage. Replace any damagedor leaking parts immediately. 6ZF060E1-A o Timing beltInspect all parts related to the timing belt for damage and deformation. Replace any dam-aged parts immediately. 6ZF060G1-A
o Vapour hose and fuel filler cap The vapor hose and fuel filler cap should be inspected at those intervals specified in the main-tenance schedule. Make sure that a new vapourhose or fuel filler cap is correctly replaced. 6ZF060F1-A
o Vacuum, crankcase
ventilation hoses
Inspect the surface of hoses for evidence of heat and/or mechanical damage. Hard and brittle rub-ber, cracking, tears, cuts, abrasions, and exces-sive swelling indicate deterioration. Particularattention should be paid to examining those hosesurfaces nearest to high heat sources, such asthe exhaust manifold.Inspect the hose routing to assure that the hoses do not come in contact with any heat source,sharp edges or moving component which mightcause heat damage or mechanical wear. Inspectall hose connections, such as clamps and cou-plings, to make sure they are secure, and that noleaks are present. Hoses should be replacedimmediately if there is any evidence of deteriora-tion or damage. 6ZF060H1-A
o Air cleaner filterA Genuine Hyundai air cleaner filter is recom- mended when the filter is replaced. 6ZF060J1-A
o Spark plugs Make sure to install new spark plugs of the correct heat range.
6ZF060A1-A EXPLANATION OF SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE ITEMS 6ZF060M1-A
o Engine oil and filterThe 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. 6ZF060B2-A
o Drive belts Inspect all drive belts for evidence of cuts, cracks, excessive wear or oil saturation and replace ifnecessary. Drive belts should be checked peri-odically for proper tension and adjusted as nec-essary. 6ZF060C1-A
o Fuel filterA clogged filter can limit the speed at which the vehicle may be driven, damage the emissionsystem and cause hard starting. If an excessiveamount of foreign matter accumulates in the fueltank, the filter may require replacement morefrequently.After installing a new filter, run the engine forseveral minutes, and check for leaks at theconnections.

SG020B1-E DAILY OPERATING CHECKSThe following items should be checked on a daily basis or whenever the vehicle is refuelled, which-ever occurs sooner.
o Engine oil level.
o Engine coolant level.
o Power steering fluid level.
o Brake fluid level.
o Windscreen washer fluid level.
o Battery condition.
o Tyre condition and pressures.
o Operation and cleanliness of all lighting equip-
ment.
o Windscreen wiper and washer operation.
o Horn operation.
o Warning lamp operation.
o Adjustment and cleanliness of mirrors.
o Seat and seat belt adjustment and operation.
o Fluid leakage. The vehicle must not be driven if the daily oper- ating checks indicate that any item of equipmentrelated to the safety or roadworthiness of thevehicle is not functioning correctly. SG030A1-E ENGINE OILThe correct engine oil level is of paramount importance. An excessively high or low oil levelmay result in irreparable damage being sus-tained by the engine. The engine oil level must bechecked on a daily basis or whenever the vehicleis refuelled, whichever occurs sooner.In addition, it is imperative that only an approvedgrade and specification of oil is used to avoid thepossibility of serious engine damage and prema-ture wear. The use of "budget price" oil is a falseeconomy that must be avoided if the maximumreliability and useful life is to be obtained from thevehicle.
SG030B02GK-E Recommended Oil A multi grade oil having a specification which meets A.P.I. specification of SH, SG or above isrecommended. The oil viscosity should be se-lected according to the operating environment ofthe engine by means of the table shown below.The engine oil recommendations are complete inthemselves and the use of additives is neitherrequired nor recommended. The use of engineoil additives may result in invalidation of thevehicle warranty.

OWNER MAINTENANCE 6-5
See the lubrication chart on the page 9-3. NOTE:
o The use of a 5W-20 multi grade oil is not
recommended for sustained high speeduse.
o When replacing or adding the oil, below SAE 10W-30 is recommended.Using a high viscosity oil of SAE 15W-40and over makes malfunction of CVVT en-gine when the engine is cool. SG030D1-E ENGINE OIL REPLENISHMENT If the indicated oil level is at or below the lower mark of the dipstick, oil should be added until thelevel is at or below the upper mark.To add oil to the engine, remove the filler cap byrotating in an counterclockwise direction andpour engine oil into the engine. Before checkingthe level again, allow several minutes for the oilto drain into the sump. Replace the oil filler caprotating it in a clockwise direction until tight.The quantity of oil required to raise the level from theminimum to maximum level is approximately 1 litre.
SG030C1-E Engine Oil Level The engine oil level should be checked with the engine at normal operating temperature and thevehicle parked upon level ground.Prior to checking the level, the vehicle should beallowed to stand for several minutes after theengine has been switched off to allow the oil todrain back to the sump.Withdraw the dipstick and wipe it with a clean rag.Replace the dipstick fully and withdraw againwhen the oil level may be read from the stick.Normal oil level is indicated when the oil ispresent between the two marks on the stick. It isnot necessary to add oil if the level is above thelower mark and in any case, oil must not beadded to the degree that the level exceeds theupper mark. Replace the dipstick fully after check-ing the level.
