Maintenance
•Do not put heavy objects or apply
excessive force on top of the
engine cover (if equipped) or fuel
related parts.
•When you inspect the fuel system
(fuel lines and fuel injection
devices), we recommend that you
contact an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer.
•Do not drive long time with
the engine cover (if equipped)
removed.
•When checking the engine room,
do not go near fire. Fuel, washer
fluid, etc. are flammable oils that
may cause fire.
•Before touching the battery, igni
tion cables and electrical wiring,
you should disconnect the battery
"" terminal. You may get an elec
tric shock from the electric current.

NOTICE
Maintenance work
•Performing maintenance work
on avehicle can be dangerous.
You can be seriously injured
while performing some mainte
nance procedures. If you lack
sufficient knowledge and experi
ence or the proper tools and
equipment to do the work, we
recommend that the system be
serviced by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
•Working under the hood with the
engine running is dangerous. It
becomes even more dangerous
when you wear jewelry or loose
clothing. These can become
entangled in moving parts and
result in injury.
(Continued)
WARNING (Continued)
Therefore, if you must run the
engine while working under the
hood, make certain that you
remove all jewelry (especially
rings, bracelets, watches, and
necklaces) and all neckties,
scarves, and similar loose cloth
ing before getting near the engine
or cooling fans.
Do not leave gloves, rags or any
other combustible material in the
engine compartment. Doing so
may cause a heatinduced fire.

Maintenance
Diesel Engine
Never work on injection system
with engine running or within 30
seconds after shutting off engine.
Highpressure pump, rail, injectors
and highpressure pipes are sub
ject to high pressure even after
the engine stopped. The fuel jet
produced by fuel leaks may cause
serious injury, if it touches the
body. People using pacemakers
should not move more than 30cm
closer to the ECU or wiring har
ness within the engine room while
engine is running, since the high
currents in the electronic engine
control system produce consider
able magnetic fields.
WARNING (Continued)
•When you remove the interior trim
cover with a flat head () driver, be
careful not to damage the cover.
•Be careful when you replace and
clean bulbs to avoid burns or elec
trical shock.

OWNER MAINTENANCE
The following lists are vehicle checks
and inspections that should be per
formed at the frequencies indicated
to help ensure safe, dependable
operation of your vehicle.
Any adverse conditions should be
brought to the attention of your deal
er as soon as possible.
These Owner Maintenance Checks
are generally not covered by war
ranties and you may be charged for
labor, parts and lubricants used. Owner maintenance schedule
When you stop for fuel:
• Check the engine oil level.
• Check the coolant level in coolantreservoir.
• Check the windshield washer fluid level.
• Look for low or underinflated tires.
• Check the radiator and condenser. Check if the front of the radiator
and condenser are clean and not
blocked with leaves, dirt or insectsetc.
If any of the above par ts areextremely dirty or you are not sure
of their condition, we recommend
that you contact an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
While operating your vehicle:
• Note any changes in the sound of the exhaust or any smell of
exhaust fumes in the vehicle.
• Check for vibrations in the steering wheel. Notice any increased steer
ing effort or looseness in the steer
ing wheel, or change in its straight
ahead position.
• Notice if your vehicle constantly turns slightly or "pulls" to one side
when traveling on smooth, levelroad.
• When stopping, listen and check for unusual sounds, pulling to one
side, increased brake pedal travel
or "hardtopush" brake pedal.
• If any slipping or changes in the operation of your transaxle occurs,
check the transaxle fluid level.
• Check automatic transaxle P (Park) function.
• Check the parking brake.
• Check for fluid leaks under your vehicle (water dripping from the air
conditioning system during or after
use is normal).
Be careful when checking your
engine coolant level when the
engine is hot. Scalding hot coolant
and steam may blow out under
pressure. This could cause burns
or other serious injury.

EXPlANATION OF SChEdulEd MAINTENANCE ITEMS
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.
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
adjusted as necessary.
When you are inspecting the belt,
place the ignition switch in the
LOCK/OFF or ACC position.
Fuel filter
A clogged filter can limit the speed at
which the vehicle may be driven,
damage the emission system and
cause multiple issues such as 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.
We recommend that the fuel filter be
replaced by an authoized HYUNDAI
dealer.
Fuel lines, fuel hoses and con
nections
Check the fuel lines, fuel hoses and
connections for leakage and dam
age. We recommend that the fuel
lines, fuel hoses and connections be
replaced by an authoized HYUNDAI
dealer.
NOTICE
Diesel Engine
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
ject to high pressure even after
the engine stopped. The fuel jet
produced by fuel leaks may cause
serious injury, if it touch the body.
People using pacemakers should
not move than 30cm closer to the
ECU or wiring harness within the
engine room while engine is run
ning, since the high currents in the
Common Rail system produce
considerable magnetic fields.

Maintenance
Vapor hose and fuel filler cap
The vapor hose and fuel filler cap
should be inspected at those inter
vals specified in the maintenance
schedule. Make sure that a new
vapor hose or fuel filler cap is cor
rectly replaced.
Vacuum crankcase ventilation
hoses (if equipped)
Inspect the surface of hoses for evi
dence of heat and/or mechanical
damage. Hard and brittle rubber,
cracking, tears, cuts, abrasions, and
excessive swelling indicate deterio
ration. Particular attention should be
paid to examine those hose surfaces
nearest to high heat sources, such
as the exhaust manifold.
Inspect the hose routing to assure
that the hoses do not come in con
tact with any heat source, sharpedges or moving component which
might cause heat damage or
mechanical wear. Inspect all hose
connections, such as clamps and
couplings, to make sure they are
secure, and that no leaks are pres
ent. Hoses should be replaced
immediately if there is any evidence
of deterioration or damage.
Air cleaner filter
We recommend that the air cleaner
filter be replaced by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
Spark plugs
(For gasoline engine)
Make sure to install new spark plugs
of the correct heat range.
Do not disconnect and inspect
spark plugs when the engine is
hot. You may burn yourself.
