RECOMMENDED LUBRICANTS AND CAPACITIES
To help achieve proper engine and powertrain performance and durability, use only
lubricants of the proper quality. The correct lubricants also help promote engine
efficiency that results in improved fuel economy.
These lubricants and fluids are recommended for use in your vehicle.

*2 : Requires grade engine oil. If a lower grade
engine oil (mineral oil including Semi-synthetic) is used, then the engine oil and engine
oil filter must be replaced as indicated severe maintenance condition.
*3 : To maintain the best braking performance and ABS/ESC performance, have you use
genuine brake fluid that conform to specifications. (Standard : SAE J1704 DOT-4 LV,

7. If the oil level is below L, add enough oil to bring the level to F.
Use only the specified engine oil. (refer
to “Recommended Lubricants and
Capacities” in chapter 2).
NOTICE
To prevent damage to your engine:

[ Do not spill engine oil when adding
or changing engine oil. Use a funnel
to help prevent oil from being spilled
on engine components. Wipe off
spilled oil immediately.

[ The engine oil consumption may
increase while you break in a new
vehicle and it will be stabilized after
driving 4,000 miles.

[ The engine oil consumption can be
affected by driving habits, climate
conditions, traffic conditions,
oil quality, etc. Therefore, it is
recommended that you inspect the
engine oil level regularly and refill it
if necessary.

Checking the Brake/Clutch Fluid
Level
OCN7080006
Check the fluid level in the reservoir
periodically. The fluid level should be
between MAX and MIN marks on the side
of the reservoir.
Before removing the reservoir cap and
adding brake fluid, clean the area around
the reservoir cap thoroughly to prevent
brake fluid contamination.
If the level is low, add fluid to the MAX
level. The level will fall with accumulated
mileage. This is a normal condition
associated with the wear of the brake
linings.
If the fluid level is excessively low, have
the system be checked by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
Information
Use only the specified brake/clutch fluid.
Refer to “Recommended lubricants and
capacities” in chapter 2.
Information
Before removing the brake/clutch filler
cap, read the warning on the cap.
Information
Clean the filler cap before removing. Use
only DOT4 brake/clutch fluid from a
sealed container.
WARNING
Do not let brake fluid enter into your
eyes. If brake fluid gets in your eyes,
flush your eyes with clean water for
at least 15 minutes and get immediate
medical attention.
NOTICE

[ Do not allow brake/clutch fluid to
contact the vehicle’s body paint, as it
will result in paint damage.

[ NEVER use brake fluid which has
been exposed to open air for an
extended time, as its quality cannot
be guaranteed. It should be disposed
of properly.

[ Don’t put in the wrong type of fluid.
A few drops of mineralbased oil, such
as engine oil in your brake system
can damage system parts.

[ To maintain the best braking
performance and ABS/ESC
performance, have you use genuine
brake/clutch fluid that conform to
specifications.
