Engine oil and filter
The engine oil and filter should be
changed at the intervals specified in
the maintenance schedule. If the car
is being driven in severe conditions,
more frequent oil and filter changes
are required.
Drive belts
Inspect all drive belts for evidence of
cuts, cracks, excessive wear or oil
saturation and replace if necessary.
Drive belts should be checked peri-
odically for proper tension and
adjusted as necessary.
Fuel filter (cartridge)
A clogged-up fuel filter may limit the
vehicle driving speed, damage the
emission system, and cause the
hard starting. When a considerable
amount of foreign substances are
accumulated in the fuel tank, the fuel
filter should be replaced.
Upon installing a new fuel filter, oper-
ate the diesel engine for several min-
utes, and check the connections for
any leakages. We recommend you to
have the fuel filter replaced by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
Fuel lines, fuel hoses and con-
nections
Check the fuel lines, fuel hoses and
connections for leakage and dam-
age. We recommend that the fuel
lines, fuel hoses and connections be
replaced by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer.
Vapor hose and fuel filler cap
The vapor hose and fuel filler cap
should be inspected at those inter-
vals specified in the maintenance
schedule. Make sure that a new
vapor hose or fuel filler cap is cor-
rectly replaced.
Vacuum crankcase ventilation
hoses (if equipped)
Inspect the surface of hoses for evi-
dence of heat and/or mechanical
damage. Hard and brittle rubber,
cracking, tears, cuts, abrasions, and
excessive swelling indicate deterio-
ration. Particular attention should be
paid to examine those hose surfaces
nearest to high heat sources, such
as the exhaust manifold.
Inspect the hose routing to assure
that the hoses do not come in con-
tact with any heat source, sharp
edges or moving component which
might cause heat damage or
mechanical wear. Inspect all hose
connections, such as clamps and
couplings, to make sure they are
secure, and that no leaks are pres-
ent. Hoses should be replaced
immediately if there is any evidence
of deterioration or damage.
When you are inspecting the belt,
place the ignition switch to the
LOCK/OFF or ACC position.

Checking the engine oil level
1. Follow all of the oil manufacturer’s
precautions.
2. Be sure the vehicle is on level ground.
3. Start the engine and allow it to reach normal operating temperature.
4. Turn the engine off and wait for a few minutes (about 5 minutes) for
the oil to return to the oil pan.
5. Pull the dipstick out, wipe it clean, and re-insert it fully. 6. Pull the dipstick out again and
check the level. The level should
be between F (Full) and L (Low). 7. If it is near or at L, add enough oil
to bring the level to F.
Use only the specified engine oil.
(Refer to “Recommended lubricants
and capacities” in chapter 8.)

Radiator hose
Be very careful not to touch the
radiator hose when checking or
adding engine oil as it may be
hot enough to burn you.
WARNING

7-36
Maintenance
To prevent damage to your engine:
Do not overfill with engine oil. Add oil in small quantities and
recheck level to ensure engine
is not overfilled.
Do not spill engine oil when adding or changing engine oil.
Use a funnel to help prevent oil
from being spilled on engine
components. Wipe off spilled oil
immediately.
Checking the engine oil and filter
We recommend that the engine oil
and filter be replaced by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
NOTICE
Used engine oil may cause irri-
tation or cancer of the skin if
left in contact with the skin for
prolonged periods of time. Used
engine oil contains chemicals
that have caused cancer in lab-
oratory animals. Always protect
your skin by washing your
hands thoroughly with soap
and warm water as soon as pos-
sible after handling used oil.

Checking the brake/clutch
fluid level
Check the fluid level in the reservoir
periodically. The fluid level should be
between MAX and MIN marks on the
side of the reservoir.
Before removing the reservoir cap
and adding brake/clutch fluid, clean
the area around the reservoir cap
thoroughly to prevent brake/clutch
fluid contamination.
If the level is low, add fluid to the MAX
level. The level will fall with accumulat-
ed mileage. This is a normal condition
associated with the wear of the brake
linings. If the fluid level is excessively low,
we recommend that the system be
checked by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer.
Information
Use only the specified brake/clutch
fluid. (Refer to “Recommended lubri-
cants and capacities” in chapter 8.)
Information
Before removing the brake/clutch filler
cap, read the warning on the cap.
Information
Clean filler cap before removing. Use
only DOT3 or DOT4 brake/clutch fluid
from a sealed container.
Do not allow brake/clutch fluid
to contact the vehicle's body
paint, as paint damage will
result.
Brake/clutch 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 dis-
posed 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/ clutch system can
damage brake/ clutch system
parts.

Maintenance
OPD076016
If the brake/clutch system
requires frequent additions of
fluid this could indicate a leak in
the brake/clutch system. We
recommend that the vehicle be
inspected by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
WARNING
Do not allow brake/clutch fluid
to come in contact with your
eyes. If brake/clutch fluid comes
in contact with your eyes, flush
your eyes with clean water for at
least 15 minutes and get imme-
diate medical attention.

Draining water from fuel filter
The fuel filter in the diesel engine
operates the critical function of sepa-
rating water from the fuels and accu-
mulating the water in its bottom.
When enough water is accumulated
inside the fuel filter, the warning light
( ) illuminates with the ignition
switch in the ON position.
In this case, we recommend you to
have the system checked by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
When the accumulated water is not
drained at a proper timing, water
may permeate in the fuel filter,
damaging the major vehicle com-
ponents, such as the fuel system.
Fuel filter cartridge replace-
ment
We recommend the fuel filter car-
tridge be replaced by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer according to the
Maintenance Schedule at the begin-
ning of this chapter.
Filter replacement
The air cleaner filter can be cleaned
for inspection using compressed air.
Do not attempt to wash or to rinse it,
as water will damage the filter.
If soiled, the air cleaner filter must be
replaced.NOTICE

Maintenance
Battery recharging
By battery charger
Your vehicle has a maintenance-free,
calcium-based battery.
If the battery becomes dischargedin a short time (because, for exam-
ple, the headlights or interior lights
were left on while the vehicle was
not in use), recharge it by slow
charging (trickle) for 10 hours.
If the battery gradually discharges because of high electric load while
the vehicle is being used, recharge
it at 20-30A for two hours. Always follow these instructions
when recharging your vehicle’s
battery to avoid the risk of SERI-
OUS INJURY or DEATH from
explosions or acid burns:
Before performing mainte-
nance or recharging the bat-
tery, turn off all accessories
and place the Engine Start/
Stop button to the OFF posi-
tion.
Keep all flames, sparks, or
smoking materials away from
the battery.
Always work outdoors or in an
area with plenty of ventilation.
Wear eye protection when
checking the battery during
charging.
The battery must be removed
from the vehicle and placed in
a well ventilated area.
(Continued)
WARNING (Continued)
Watch the battery during
charging, and stop or reduce
the charging rate if the battery
cells begin boiling violently.
The negative battery cable
must be removed first and
installed last when the battery
is disconnected. Disconnect
the battery charger in the fol-
lowing order:
(1) Turn off the battery chargermain switch.
(2) Unhook the negative
clamp from the negative
battery terminal.
(3) Unhook the positive clamp from the positive battery
terminal.
Always use a genuine HYUNDAI
approved battery when you
replace the battery.
