Convenient features of your vehicle
Replace the filter according tothe Maintenance Schedule.
If the vehicle is being driven in
severe conditions such as dusty
or rough roads, more frequentair conditioner filter inspections
and changes are required.
When the air flow rate suddenly decreases, we recommend that
the system be checked by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
Checking the amount of air
conditioner refrigerant andcompressor lubricant
When the amount of refrigerant is
low, the performance of the air con-
ditioning is reduced. Overfilling also
has a negative impact on the air con-ditioning system.
Therefore, we recommend that the
system be inspected by an author-
ized HYUNDAI dealer.
It is important when servicing the air conditioning system that thecorrect type and amount of oil and
refrigerant is used. Otherwise,
damage to the compressor and
abnormal system operation may
occur.

Maintenance work
Performing maintenance work
on a vehicle can be danger-
ous. You can be seriously
injured while performing
some maintenance proce-
dures. If you lack sufficient
knowledge and experience or
the proper tools and equip-
ment to do the work, we rec-ommend that the system be
serviced by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
Working under the hood with
the engine running is danger-
ous. It becomes even more
dangerous when you wear
jewelry or loose clothing.These can become entangled
in moving parts and result in
injury.(Continued)
WARNING Continued)
Therefore, if you must run the
engine while working under
the hood, make certain that
you remove all jewelry (espe-
cially rings, bracelets, watch-
es, and necklaces) and all
neckties, scarves, and similar
loose clothing before gettingnear the engine or coolingfans.
Do not put heavy objects or
apply excessive force on top
of the engine cover (ifequipped) or fuel related
parts.
When you inspect the fuel system (fuel lines and fuel
injection devices), we recom-
mend that you contact an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
Do not drive long time with
the engine cover (if equipped)
removed.
When checking the engine
room, do not go near fire.
Fuel, washer fluid, etc. are
flammable oils that may cause
fire.
Before touching the battery,
ignition cables and electrical
wiring, you should disconnect
the battery "-" terminal. You
may get an electric shock
from the electric current. (Continued)

Maintenance
The following lists are vehicle checks and inspections that should be per-
formed at the frequencies indicated
to help ensure safe, dependable
operation of your vehicle. If you have
any question, we recommend that
you consult an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer.
These Owner Maintenance Checks
are generally not covered by war-
ranties and you may be charged for
labor, parts and lubricants used.Owner maintenance schedule
When you stop for fuel:
Check the engine oil level.
Check coolant level in coolantreservoir.
Check the windshield washer fluid level.
Look for low or under-inflated tires.
While operating your vehicle:
Note any changes in the sound of the exhaust or any smell of
exhaust fumes in the vehicle.
Check for vibrations in the steering wheel. Notice any increased steer-
ing effort or looseness in the steer-
ing wheel, or change in its straight-ahead position.
Notice if your vehicle constantly turns slightly or “pulls” to one side
when traveling on smooth, levelroad.
When stopping, listen and check for unusual sounds, pulling to one
side, increased brake pedal travel
or “hard-to-push” brake pedal.
If any slipping or changes in the operation of your transmission
occurs, check the transmission
fluid level.
Check manual transmission opera- tion, including clutch operation.
Check parking brake.
Check for fluid leaks under your vehicle (water dripping from the air
conditioning system during or after
use is normal).
OOWW NNEERR MM AAIINN TTEENN AANN CCEE
Be careful when checking your
engine coolant level when the
engine is hot. Scalding hot
coolant and steam may blow
out under pressure. This could
cause burns or other serious
injury.

OEU074010 Radiator hose
Be very careful not to touch the
radiator hose when checking or
adding the engine oil as it may
be hot enough to burn you.
WARNING
Do not drive the vehicle, when
the engine oil reservoir is
empty. If not, it may damage
the engine.
Do not overfill with engine oil.
Engine damage may result.
Do not spill engine oil, when
adding or changing engine
oil. If you drop the engine oil
on the engine room, wipe it off
immediately.
(Continued)
(Continued)
When you wipe the oil level
gauge, you should wipe it with
a clean cloth. When mixed
with debris, it can cause
engine damage.
CAUTION
Diesel engine
Overfilling the engine oil may
cause severe dieseling due to
churning effect. It may lead to
engine damage accompaniedwith abrupt engine speed incre-
ment, combustion noise andwhite smoke emission.
CAUTION

7-28
Maintenance
Checking the power steering
fluid level
With the vehicle on level ground,
check the fluid level in the power
steering reservoir periodically. The
fluid should be between MAX and
MIN marks on the side of the reser-
voir at the normal temperature.
Before adding power steering fluid, thoroughly clean the area around the
reservoir cap to prevent power steer-ing fluid contamination.
If the level is low, add fluid to the
MAX level.Check that the fluid level is in the
"HOT" range on the reservoir. If
the fluid is cold, check that it is in
the "COLD" range.
In the event the power steering sys- tem requires frequent additions of
fluid, we recommend that the system
be inspected by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
NOTICE
Do not allow brake fluid to con-
tact the vehicle's body paint, as
paint damage will result. Brake
fluid, which has been exposed
to open air for an extended time
should never be used as its
quality cannot be guaranteed. It
should be disposed of properly.
Don't put in the wrong kind of
fluid. A few drops of mineral-
based oil, such as engine oil, in
your brake system can damage
brake system parts.
CAUTION

MaintenanceUse only the specified power steer-ing fluid. (Refer to "Recommendedlubricants or capacities" in section 9.)
Checking the power steering hose
Check the connections for oil leaks,
damage and twists in the power
steering hose before driving.
Checking the washer fluid
level
Check the fluid level in the washer
fluid reservoir and add fluid if neces-
sary.
Plain water may be used if washer
fluid is not available. However, use
washer solvent with antifreeze char-
acteristics in cold climates to preventfreezing.
(Continued)
Too little fluid can result in
increased steering effort
and/or noise from the powersteering system.
The use of the non-specified
fluid could reduce the effec-
tiveness of the power steering
system and cause damage toit.
