VEHICLE MAINTENANCE REQUIREMENTS

G080E01P-GAT
o Vacuum and Crankcase
Ventilation Hoses
Inspect the surface of hoses for evi- dence of heat and/or mechanical dam- age. Hard and brittle rubber, cracking, tears, cuts, abrasions, and excessiveswelling indicate deterioration. Particu- lar attention should be paid to examin- ing those hose surfaces nearest tohigh heat sources, such as the ex- haust manifold. Inspect the hose routing to assure that the hoses do not come in contact with any heat source, sharp edges or mov- ing component which might cause heatdamage or mechanical wear. Inspect all hose connections, such as clamps and couplings, to make sure they aresecure, and that no leaks are present. Hoses should be replaced immedi- ately if there is any evidence of dete-rioration or damage. G080F01P-GAT
o Fuel Hose, Vapor Hose and
Fuel Filler Cap
The fuel hose, vapor hose and fuelfiller cap should be inspected at those intervals specified in the maintenance schedule. Make sure that a new fuelhose, vapor hose or fuel filler cap is correctly replaced. Consult your Hyundai dealer if you have any ques-tions. G080G01P-GAT
o Air Cleaner Filter
A genuine Hyundai part is recom- mended for replacement of the air cleaner filter. G080H01P-GAT
o Spark Plugs (Gasoline) Make sure to install new spark plugs of the correct heat range. G080I01P-GAT
o Drive Belts Inspect all drive belts (water pump and alternator) for evidence of cuts, cracks, excessive wear or oiliness, and re- place if necessary. Drive belts shouldbe checked periodically for proper ten- sion and adjusted as necessary. G080J01P-GAT
o Engine Coolant The coolant should be changed at those intervals specified in the Vehicle Maintenance Requirements Section. G080K01P-GAT
o Timing Belt Inspect all parts related with the timing belt for damage and deformation. Re-place any damaged parts.

EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM
3CATALYTIC CONVERTER
H040A01P-GAT Canister While the engine is inoperative, fuel vapors generated inside the fuel tank are absorbed and stored in the canis-ter. When the engine is running, the fuel vapors absorbed in the canister are drawn into the induction systemthrough the purge control solenoid valve. H090A01P-GAT Purge Control Solenoid Valve The purge control solenoid valve is controlled by the ECU; when the en-gine coolant temperature is low, and during idling, it closes, so that evapo- rated fuel is not taken into the surgetank. After engine warm-up, during ordinary driving, it opens so as to introduce evaporated fuel to the surgetank. H050A01P-GAT
3. Exhaust Emission Control
System
The Exhaust Emission Control Sys-
tem is a highly effective system which controls exhaust emission while main-taining good vehicle performance. H060A01P-GAT All Hyundai vehicles are equipped with a monolith type three-way cata- lytic converter to reduce the carbonmonoxide, hydrocarbons and nitrogen oxides contained in the exhaust gas.

10CHECKING THE ENGINE COOLANT
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. o The engine oil consumption is
strongly effected by the viscosity and quality of oil, engine rpm and driving condition etc. The engine oil is more consumed under severedriving conditions such as high speeds and frequent acceleration and deceleration than normal driv-ing condition. I080A02P-GAT
!WARNING:
Do not remove the radiator cap
when the engine is hot. When the engine is hot, the engine coolant is under pressure and may erupt through the opening if the cap isremoved. You could be seriously burned if you do not observe this precaution. Do not remove theradiator cap until the radiator is cool to the touch.

A translucent coolant reservoir tank is
in the engine compartment.
The coolant level in this tank should
be kept between the "L" and "F" marks when measured while the engine iswarm and idling.
The cooling system is a closed sys-
tem and normally the loss of coolant should be very slight. A noticeable drop in the coolant level could indi-cate leakage. If this occurs, have the system
checked at an authorized HYUNDAIdealer as soon as possible. If the level should drop below the "L"
level on the reservoir tank, add cool- ant.
Also, if the reservoir tank is com-
pletely empty, remove the radiatorcap and add coolant until the level reaches the filler neck.
!WARNING:
Do not open the reservoir tank lid
or radiator cap while the engine is hot. The coolant system is under pressure and any hot coolant es-caping could cause severe burns. G050B01A-AAT Recommended Engine Coolant Use a high quality ethylene-glycol coolant in a 50/50 mix with water. The engine coolant should be compatible with aluminum engine parts. Addi-tional corrosion inhibitors or additives should not be used. The cooling sys- tem must be maintained with the cor-rect concentration and type of engine coolant to prevent freezing and corro- sion. Never allow the concentration ofantifreeze to exceed the 60% level or go below the 35% level, or damage to the cooling system may result. Forproper concentration when adding or replacing the engine coolant, refer to the following table.

Antifreezesolution G050C01A-GAT To Check the Coolant Level The coolant level can be seen on the side of the plastic coolant reservoir. The level of the coolant should be between the "L" and "F" lines on thereservoir when the engine is cold. If the level is below the "L" mark, add engine coolant to bring it up between"L" and "F". If the level is low, inspect for coolant leaks and recheck the fluid level frequently. If the level dropsagain, visit your Hyundai dealer for an inspection and diagnosis of the rea- son.
