ENGINE OIL REPLENISHMENT
If the indicated oil level is at or below the
lower mark of the dipstick, oil should 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 counterclock-
wise direction and pour engine oil into
the engine. Before checking the level
again, allow several minutes for the oil
to drain into the sump. Replace the oil
filler cap rotating it in a clockwise direc-
tion until tight.
The quantity of oil required to raise the
level from the minimum to maximum
level is approximately 1.2 litre.ZG030E1-E
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 con-
sume some engine oil while normal
driving. The cause of oil consumption in
a normal engine are as follows;
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 down-
wards in the cylinder. High negative
pressure generated during engine
operation sucks some of the oil into
the combustion chamber.
This oil with some oil of the cylinder
wall is burned by the high tempera-
ture combustion gases during the
combustion process.
o The engine oil consumption is strongly
effected by the viscosity and quality
of oil, engine rpm and driving condi-
tion etc.

Diesel engine
Only ethylene glycol based coolant with
a corrosion inhibitor suited to aluminium
alloy engine components should be
used in the cooling system. No further
additives or inhibitors should be used.
The coolant specific gravity should be
checked as prescribed in the mainte-
nance schedule to ensure adequate
frost and corrosion protection. In addi-
tion, the engine coolant must be re-
placed at the specified interval since
the corrosion inhibitor properties dete-
riorate with time. It is important to note that whilst an
increase in the concentration of anti
freeze gives an increase in the level of
frost protection, a solution which is in
excess of 65% anti freeze will result in
reduced frost protection and engine
overheating. Therefore the recom-
mended concentration of 50% should
not be exceeded for general use.
The use of methanol based anti freeze
compounds may result in engine over-
heating and will invalidate the vehicle
warranty.
NOTE:
It is imperative that vehicles fitted
with an air conditioning system have
a coolant concentration of the rec-
ommended strength at all times. The
use of the air conditioning system
when the cooling system is filled
with water only will result in the
heater matrix freezing and subse-
quently bursting.
SG050C1-E
Engine Coolant Level
The engine coolant level may be ob-
served through the side of the plastic
coolant reservoir (expansion tank) when
the engine is cold. If the level is below
the "LOW" mark, add coolant of the
correct concentration until the level is
between the "LOW" and "Full" marks. If
the level falls below the "LOW" mark on
a regular basis despite being topped up,
consult a Hyundai dealer.
SG050D1-E
To Change the engine Coolant
The engine coolant should be changed
at those intervals specified in the ve-
hicle maintenance schedule in Section
5.
NOTE:
Care should be taken to ensure that
coolant is not allowed to spill onto
the paintwork since the finish may
become damaged. If coolant spill-
age occurs, the affected area should
be rinsed thoroughly with water.

1. Park the vehicle on level ground and
ensure that the parking brake is firmly
applied, and the engine allowed to
cool.
Do not attempt this operation whilst
the engine is hot since burning or
scalding may result.
2. Prepare a suitable receptacle to col-
lect the displaced coolant and posi-
tion this under the radiator drain tap.
3. With the heater temperature control
set to the "HOT" position, remove
the radiator cap and open the radiator
drain tap. 5. Prepare a suitable quantity of new
engine coolant (refer to section 9)
and pour this into the radiator.
6. Start the engine with the radiator cap
still removed and continue to add
coolant as the level decreases as air
is expelled from the system. When
the level remains constant, replace
the radiator cap and replenish the
coolant reservoir.
7. When the engine is hot, check to ensure that no coolant leaks are
present.
4. When the engine coolant has drained completely, close the drain tap en-
suring that this is not over tightened. WARNING:
The cooling fan is controlled by en-
gine coolant temperature and may
sometimes operate even when the
engine is not running. Use extreme
caution when working near the
blades of the cooling fan so that you
are not injured by a rotating fan
blade. As the engine coolant tem-
perature decreases, the fan will auto-
matically shut off. This is a normal
condition.

With the engine idling and the footbrake
applied, the transaxle selector should
be moved from the "P" or "N" position
through to the "L" position and back to
the "N" or "P" position.
Open the bonnet and remove the
transaxle dipstick, remembering that
care must be exercised to prevent in-
jury occurring through contact with hot
or rotating parts of the engine.

Fluid level should be within
"HOT" range
HTB164 Wipe the dipstick, replace it fully and
promptly remove it again. The fluid
level should be between the upper and
lower marks. Fluid need only be added
if the level is at or below the lower mark
and must never be increased above the
higher mark. If additional fluid is re-
quired, this should be poured into the
transmission through the dipstick tube
with the aid of a suitable funnel. WARNING:
The cooling fan is controlled by en-
gine coolant temperature and may
sometimes operate even when the
engine is not running. Use extreme

WARNING (Diesel only):
Never work on injection system with
engine running or within 30 seconds
after shutting off engine. High pres-
sure pump, rail, injectors and high
pressure pipes are subject 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 running, since the high

o If battery electrolyte is spilled onto
skin or into eyes, the effected area
must be flushed with copious
amounts of water and medical assis-
tance sought.
o If battery electrolyte is ingested, copious amounts of water or milk
followed by an ant-acid (raw egg or
milk of magnesia) must be drunk.
Vomiting should not be induced and
medical assistance must be sought.
o Batteries must only be charged in well venti-lated areas from which
naked lights or sources of sparks are
excluded.
o Ensure that children, pets or other unauthorized persons are kept away
from batteries.
o Do not allow anything to bridge the positive (+) and negative (-) termi-
nals of the battery.
o Never invert the battery.
The battery fitted during production is of
the "Maintenance Free" type.

BATTERY MAINTENANCE
WARNING:
Motor vehicle batteries contain
sulphuric acid which is corrosive
and poisonous. Hydrogen gas is
emitted from the battery which is
explosive when combined with oxy-
gen. The following precautions must
be strictly observed to avoid per-
sonal injury or damage to the ve-
hicle.

blades of the cooling fan so that you
are not injured by a rotating fan
blade. As the engine coolant tem-
perature decreases, the fan will auto-
matically shut off. This is a normal

The engine cooling fan should operate
before the temperature gauge reaches
the upper portion of the scale and the
condenser fan should operate when-
ever the air conditioning is in use.
