ENGINE OIL REPLENISHMENT
If the indicated oil level is at or below the lower mark of the dipstick, oilshould be added until the level is at or below the upper mark. To add oil to the engine, remove the filler cap by rotating in an counter- clockwise direction and pour engine oil into the engine. Before checkingthe level again, allow several minutes for the oil to drain into the sump. Replace the oil filler cap rotating it ina clockwise direction until tight.The quantity of oil required to raisethe level from the minimum to maxi- mum level is approximately 1 litre. 1.6L/2.0L
G350A01A-GAT ENGINE OIL CONSUMPTION Function of engine oil Engine oil has the primary function of lubricating and cooling the inside of the engine. Engine oil consumption It is normal that an engine should consume some engine oil while nor- mal driving. The cause of oil con- sumption in a normal engine are asfollows;
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 downwards in the cylinder. High negative pressure generated dur-ing engine operation sucks some of the oil into the combustion cham- ber.This oil with some oil of the cylin-der wall is burned by the high tem-perature combustion gases during the combustion process.
2.7L
!WARNING:
Be very careful not to touch the
radiator hose when checking the engine oil as it may be hot enough to burn you.

3. Prepare a suitable receptacle to
collect the displaced oil and re- move the drain plug from the sump.
WARNING:
The oil being drained from the
engine will be hot. Care should beexercised to prevent scalding. 6. Install a new oil filter having
smeared the sealing ring with cleanoil and rotating clockwise until the filter contacts the mounting and then a further one half turn. Do notover-tighten. Tightening torque: 1.2 ~ 1.6 kgf.m
7. Remove the engine oil level dip- stick.
8. Pour the specified quantity of the recom-mended oil into the engine and replace the filler cap. Start theengine and ensure that no oil leaks exist. Turn off the engine and after a couple minutes, recheck the oillevel.
4. When the oil has drained from the
sump, replace the drain plug usinga new gasket ensuring that the plug is not over tightened. Tightening torque: 4.5 ~ 4.0 kgf.m (1.6/2.0L) 4.5 ~ 3.5 kgf.m (2.7L)
5. Remove the oil filter by rotating counterclock-wise, using a propri-etary oil filter removal tool if neces- sary. Note that the oil filter will contain approximately 0.5 litres ofoil and this should be collected in a suitable receptacle. WARNING:
Prolonged and repeated contact with used engine oils may result inserious skin disorders including dermatitis and cancer. Avoid con- tact with skin as far as possibleand always wash thoroughly after any contact. Keep used oils out of reach of children. It is illegal topollute drains, water courses and soil. Use only authorized waste collection facilities including civic amenity sites and garages for the disposal of used oil and oil filters.If in doubt, contact the local au- thority for disposal instructions.

HGK5066 4. When preparing to remove the old
spark plug, guide the socket down over the spark plug, being careful not to damage the ceramic insula-tor.
5. To remove the old spark plug, turn
the wrench handle in a counter-clockwise direction.
6. To install the new spark plug, guide the socket down over the spark plug, being careful not to damage the ceramic insulator.
G060C02GK-GAT Changing the Spark Plugs You will find it easier to change spark plugs if the engine is cold. Alwayschange one spark plug at a time. This helps avoid getting the wires mixed up.
1. Remove the engine rocker cover.
(1.6L/2.0L Engine)
NOTE: It is recommended that the spark plugs for 2.7L Engine should be changed by an authorized Hyundaidealer. 2. Using a clean cloth, remove any
dirt that has accumulated aroundthe base of the spark plug so it cannot fall into the cylinder when the spark plug is removed.
3. To remove the spark plug cable, pull straight up on the insulatedconnector, not the cable. Pullingon the cable may damage the car- bon core conductor.
HGK5062 WARNING:
It is recommended that the engine
be cool or cold when changing the spark plugs. If the engine is hot,you could burn yourself on the insulated connector, the spark plug or the engine itself.

G100B01L
CAUTION:
The transaxle lubricant level should only be checked when the engine is cold to prelude the possibility ofpersonal injury by contact with hot components.
!
1. To check the transaxle lubricant level, the vehicle should be placed on level ground and the level plug removed with a suitable spanner.
2. If the level is correct, lubricant should begin to drip from the plugorifice. In this case the plug shouldbe replaced.If the level is incorrect, lubricantshould be added until it begins to drip from the plug orifice at which time the plug should be replaced. To Check the Transaxle Oil Level
Park the car on level ground with the
engine off.
1. Using a wrench of the correct size, loosen the oil filler bolt turning it counterclockwise and remove it with your fingers.
2. Use your finger to feel inside the
hole. The oil level should be at itsbottom edge. If it is not, check for leaks before adding oil. To refill the transaxle or bring the oil level up,add oil slowly until it reaches the proper level. Do not overfill.
3. Replace the bolt and washer, screw it in with your fingers and thentighten securely with the wrench.
AUTOMATIC TRANSAXLE LUBRICANT
G110A01GK-EAT Transaxle lubricant should be changed at those intervals specified in the ve- hicle maintenance schedule in Sec-tion 5. NOTE: Automatic transaxle fluid is red color. As driving distance in- creases, the fluid color turns dark-ish red gradually. It is a normal condition and you should not judge the need to replace basedupon the changing color.You must replace the automatictransaxle fluid in accordance withintervals specified in the vehicle maintenances schedule in section 5.

CHECKING THE CLUTCH FLUID
SG130A1-C
(Not all models)To Check the Clutch Fluid
The clutch fluid level in the master cylinder should be checked when performing other under bonnet checks. The system should be checked forleakage at the same time.Ensure that the clutch fluid level isalways between the "MAX" and "MIN" level markings on the fluid reservoir. Fill as required. Fluid loss indicates aleak in the clutch system which should be inspected and repaired immedi- ately.
HGK5012
SG120D1-E Brake Fluid Level The fluid level in the brake fluid reser- voir should be checked periodically. The level should be between the "MIN" and "MAX" marks on the side of thereservoir. If the level is at or below the "MIN" mark, fluid should be added having carefully cleaned the area sur-rounding the reservoir cap to ensure that dirt is not allowed to enter the system. It should be borne in mindthat the brake fluid level will decrease slightly as the friction linings of the pads and shoes become worn andthat this is a normal condition.
WARNING:
Brake fluid is hygroscopic and should never be stored in an un- sealed container. The presence ofwater in the braking system will cause vapour locks and increase the possibility of brake fade alongwith promoting corrosion within the braking system. The brake fluid must be changed at the specifiedtime or mileage interval to ensure continued safe operation of the system. Brake fluid will cause rapidand serious damage to paintwork. If accidental spillage occurs, the affected area must be rinsed withwater immediately. Do not allow brake fluid to come into contact with the eyes or to be ingestedand ensure that fluid is safely stored away form the reach of chil- dren.
