2: Fuel filter & Fuel tank air filter are considered to be maintenance free\
. However, regular inspection is still recommended, because the maintenance schedule depend\
s on the fuel
quality. When there are critical safety problems, such as fuel flow blocking, overflowing, power
loss, and hard starting, immediately replace the fuel filter regardless of maintenance sche\
d-
ule, and consult an authorized EQUUS dealer for further information.

Engine oil and filter
The engine oil and filter should be
changed at the interval, as specified
in the maintenance schedule. After
driving in severe conditions, you
should more frequently change oil
and filters.
Drive belts
Inspect all belts for any cut, crack,
excessive wear-out, or oil saturation.
If necessary, replace it.
Fuel filter
A clogged filter may limit the acceler-
ating function, damage the emission
system and cause other problems,
such as hard starting. When an
excessive amount of foreign sub-
stances accumulate in the fuel tank,
you should more frequently replace
the filter. After installing a new filter,
run the engine for several minutes,
and check for any leakage from the
connections. Fuel filters should be
installed by an authorized EQUUS
dealer.
Fuel lines, fuel hoses and con-
nections
Check the fuel lines, fuel hoses and
connections for any leakage and
damage. Immediately have an
authorized EQUUS dealer replace
any damaged or leaking parts.
Vapor hose and fuel filler cap
Check the fuel lines, fuel hoses and
connections for any leakage and
damage. Immediately have an
authorized EQUUS dealer replace
any damaged or leaking parts.
Air cleaner filter
An authorized HYUNDAI air cleaner
filter is recommended.
Spark plugs
Make sure to install new spark plugs
of the correct heat range.
Cooling system
Check the cooling system compo-
nents, such as radiator, coolant
reservoir, hoses and connections, for
any leakage and damage. If neces-
sary, replace any damaged parts.
Coolant
The coolant should be changed at
the interval, as specified in the main-
tenance schedule.
Automatic transmission fluid
You do not need to check the auto-
matic transmission fluid, when driv-
ing under normal conditions.
However, after driving in severe con-
ditions, the fluid should be changed
by an authorized EQUUS dealer in
accordance with the maintenance
schedule, as specified in the begin-
ning of this chapter.
Information
The original color of the automatic
transmission fluid is red. However, as
you drive the vehicle, the color will
become darker. This is normal, and
you do not need to change the fluid
due to the changed color.

Maintenance07
The emission control system of your
vehicle is covered by a written limited
warranty. Please refer to the Owner’s
Handbook & Warranty Information
booklet for more warranty information.
Your vehicle is equipped with an
emission control system to meet all
applicable emission regulations.
Below are the three emission control
systems.
(1) Crankcase emission control sys-tem
(2) Evaporative emission control sys- tem
(3) Exhaust emission control system
In order to assure the proper opera-
tion of the emission control systems,
it is recommended that you have
your car inspected and maintained
by an authorized EQUUS dealer in
accordance with the maintenance
schedule in this manual.
Caution for the Inspection and
Maintenance Test (With Electronic
Stability Control (ESC) system)
To prevent a misfiring during a dynamometer test, press the
Electronic Stability Control (ESC)
system OFF.
After a dynamometer test, turn ON the ESC system back.1. Crankcase emission control system
The positive crankcase ventilation
system is to prevent the gas emis-
sion from the crankcase and to
reduce the air pollution. This system
supplies filtered-out, fresh air to the
crankcase through the air intake
hose. Inside the crankcase, the fil-
tered-out air mixes with gases, which
then pass through the PCV valve into
the induction system.
2. Evaporative emission control(including ORVR: Onboard
Refueling Vapor Recovery)
system
The Evaporative Emission Control
System is designed to prevent fuel
vapor emission into the atmosphere.
(The ORVR system is designed to
keep the fuel vapors in a canister
while being refueled at the gas sta-
tion, preventing the fuel vapor emis-
sion into the atmosphere.)
Canister
Fuel vapors generated inside the fuel
tank are absorbed and stored in the
onboard canister. When the engine is
running, the fuel vapors are
absorbed in the canister, and are
drawn into the engine intake mani-
fold through the purge control sole-
noid valve.
