7CHECKING THE ENGINE OIL
If you notice anything that does not
operate correctly or appear to be func- tioning correctly, inspect it carefully and seek assistance from your Hyundai dealer if service is needed.
Adequate care of your vehicle at regu-
lar intervals serves to preserve thevalue and appearance as long aspossible.
Some maintenance items can be car-
ried out by the owner (Consumer Information), while other should be done only by an authorized dealer(Periodic Inspection and Mainte- nance). This section describes only those items which can be carried outby the owner. In the event a malfunc- tion or other problem is discovered, have it corrected by an authorizedHYUNDAI dealer. This section con- tains information on inspection main- tenance procedures that you can doyourself, if you so desire. Follow the instructions and cautions for each of the various procedures. When checking or servicing the in-side of the engine compartment, besure the engine is stopped and has had a chance to cool down. If it is necessary to do work in the enginecompartment with the engine running, be especially careful that your cloth- ing, hair, etc., becomes not caught bythe fan, V-belts, or other moving parts.

Select engine oil of the proper SAE viscosity number according to the at-mospheric temperature.Recommended viscosity is given inthe following illustration. The engine oil quality should meet the following API classification: 2.6 N/A : CF-4 or ABOVE 2.5 4D56 TCI : CF-4 or ABOVE 2.5 CRDi TCI : CF-4 or ABOVE The engine oil quality should meet the following ACEA classification: 2.6 N/A : B2 or B3 2.5 4D56 TCI : B2 or B3 2.5 CRDi TCI : B4 or ABOVE NOTE: For diesel-powered vehicle SAE 0W-30 oil should be used only inareas where extremely cold tem- peratures of 10°C (50°F) or below are experienced.For diesel-powered vehicle, if theatmospheric temperatures are 0°C
G030A02O-GAT
Recommended Oil Gasoline Engine Engine oil is essential to the perfor-
mance and service of the engine. It is suggested that you check the oil level at least once a week in normal useand more often if you are on a trip or driving in severe conditions. G030B01JMThe engine oil quality should meet
the following classification.
API SJ, SL or ABOVE, ILSAC GF-3 or ABOVE NOTE:
o For good fuel economy, SAE 5W-20 (5W-30), ILSAC GF-3 en- gine oil is preferred regardlessof regional option and engine variation.
o If SAE 5W-20, ILSAC GF-3 en- gine oil is not available, second- ary recommended engine oil forcorresponding temperature range can be used.
(32°F) or below, SAE 30 oil must not be used. This oil should beused only in areas where the at- mospheric temperatures are 0°C(32°F) or above.

To Check the Oil Level
If the oil level is below the specified limit, remove the cap located on the cylinder head cover and add enoughoil to raise the level to within the specified range. Be sure to use the specified engine oil and do not mixvarious types of oil. Also, avoid mix- ing different makes of oil together if possible. After adding oil, close thecap securely.
It is important to check the oil level at
regular intervals or before starting a long trip.
This check must be made with the
engine warm but not running. Park the vehicle on a level surface, stopthe engine, and then wait a few mo- ments to allow the engine oil in circu- lation to return to the oil pan to ensureaccurate measurement. Remove the dipstick and wipe it with a clean cloth. Reinsert the dipstick and read the oillevel, which should always be within the range indicated in the figure. WARNING:
Be careful not to touch the hot exhaust manifold.
CAUTION:
Slowly pour the recommended oilusing by a funnel. Do not overfillnot to damage engine. NOTE: Check the oil level on the dipstick once again after adding the oil.

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.
