(for Petrol Engine)
Make sure to install new spark plugs
of the correct heat range.
Valve clearance
(for Petrol Engine)
Inspect excessive valve noise and/or
engine vibration and adjust if neces-
sary. We recommend that the system
be serviced by an authorised HYUNDAI
dealer.
Cooling system
Check the cooling system parts,
such as radiator, coolant reservoir,
hoses and connections for leakage
and damage. Replace any damaged
parts.
Engine coolant
The coolant should be changed at
the intervals specified in the mainte-
nance schedule.

(if equipped)
Automatic transmission fluid should
not be checked under normal usage
conditions.
We recommend that the automatic
transmission fluid is changed by an
authorised HYUNDAI dealer accord-
ing to the maintenance schedule.
Information
Automatic transmission fluid colour is
red when new.
As the vehicle is driven, the automatic
transmission fluid will begin to look
darker.
This is a normal condition. It does not
need to be replaced based on the colour
change.
The use of a non-specified fluid
could result in transmission mal-
function and failure.
Use only specified automatic
transmission fluid.
(Refer to “Recommended lubri-
cants and capacities” in chapter 8.)

The high-pressure cooling system
has a reservoir filled with year-round
antifreeze coolant. The reservoir is
filled at the factory.
Check the antifreeze protection and
coolant concentration level at least
once a year, at the beginning of the
winter season, and before travelling
to a colder climate.
When the engine overheats from
low engine coolant, suddenly
adding engine coolant may cause
cracks in the engine. To prevent
damage, add engine coolant
slowly in small quantities.
Do not drive with no engine
coolant. It may cause water pump
failure and engine seizure, etc.Checking the engine coolant
level
Check the condition and connections
of all cooling system hoses and
heater hoses. Replace any swollen
or deteriorated hoses.The coolant level should be filled
between MAX and MIN (or F (Full)
and L (Low)) marks on the side of the
coolant reservoir when the engine is
cool.
If the coolant level is low, add enough
distilled (deionised) water. Bring the
level to MAX, (or F (Full)) but do not
overfill.
If frequent additions are required, we
recommend that the system be
inspected by an authorised HYUNDAI
dealer.NOTICE

Maintenance
The electric motor for the cooling fan
is controlled by engine coolant tem-
perature, refrigerant pressure and
vehicle speed. As the engine coolant
temperature decreases, the electric
motor will automatically shut off. This
is a normal condition. If your vehicle
is equipped with GDI, the electric
motor for the cooling fan may begin
to operate at any time and continue
to operate until you disconnect the
negative battery cable.The electric motor for
the cooling fan may
continue to operate
or start up when the
engine is not running
and can cause serious injury.
Keep hands, clothing and tools
away from the rotating fan blades
of the cooling fan.
WARNING
Never remove the
radiator cap or the
drain plug whilst the
engine and radiator
are hot. Hot coolant
and steam may blow out under
pressure, causing serious injury.
(Continued)
WARNING
OPD076015
(Continued)
Turn the engine off and wait until
the engine cools down. Use
extreme care when removing the
radiator cap. Wrap a thick towel
around it, and turn it anticlock-
wise slowly to the first stop. Step
back whilst the pressure is
released from the cooling sys-
tem. When you are sure all the
pressure has been released,
press down on the cap, using a
thick towel, and continue turning
anticlockwise to remove it.

Recommended engine coolant
When adding coolant, use only dis-
tilled (deionised) water for your
vehicle and never mix hard water in
the coolant filled at the factory. An
incorrect coolant mixture can result
in serious malfunction or engine
damage.
The engine in your vehicle has alu-
minium engine parts and must be
protected by an ethylene-glycol
with phosphate based coolant to
prevent corrosion and freezing.
DO NOT USE alcohol or methanol
coolant or mix them with the spec-
ified coolant.
Do not use a solution that contains
more than 60% antifreeze or less
than 35% antifreeze, which would
reduce the effectiveness of the solu-
tion.For mixture percentage, refer to the
following table.
Information
If in doubt about the mix ratio, a 50%
water and 50% antifreeze mix is the
easiest to mix together as it will be the
same quantity of each. It is suitable to
use for most temperature ranges of
-35°C (-31°F) and higher.
Changing the engine coolant
We recommend that the coolant is
changed by an authorised HYUNDAI
dealer according to the Maintenance
Schedule at the beginning of this
chapter.
To prevent damage to engine parts,
put a thick towel around the radia-
tor cap before refilling the coolant
to prevent the coolant from over-
flowing into engine parts, such as
the alternator.

Do not use engine coolant or
antifreeze in the washer fluid
reservoir.
Engine coolant can severely
obscure visibility when sprayed
on the windscreen and may
cause loss of vehicle control
resulting in an accident.
Engine coolant may also cause
damage to paint and body trim.

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 characteristics in cold cli-
mates to prevent freezing.
Checking the parking brake
Check the stroke of the parking
brake by counting the number of
“clicks’’ heard whilst fully applying it
from the released position. Also, the
parking brake alone should securely
hold the vehicle on a fairly steep
grade. If the stroke is more or less
than specified, we recommend that
the system be serviced by an autho-
rised HYUNDAI dealer.
Stroke : 5~6 “clicks’’ at a force of
20 kg (44 lbs, 196 N).OPD077017L

To prevent serious injury or
death, take the following safety
precautions when using washer
fluid:
Do not use engine coolant or
antifreeze in the washer fluid
reservoir. Engine coolant can
severely obscure visibility
when sprayed on the wind-
screen and may cause loss of
vehicle control resulting in an
accident or damage to paint
and body trim.
Do not allow sparks or flames
to contact the washer fluid or
the washer fluid reservoir.
Washer fluid may contain
alcohol and can be flamma-
ble.
Do not drink washer fluid and
avoid contact with skin.
Washer fluid is poisonous to
humans and animals.
Keep washer fluid away from
children and animals.

Maintenance
Canister
Fuel vapours generated inside the
fuel tank are absorbed and stored in
the onboard canister. When the
engine is running, the fuel vapours
absorbed in the canister are drawn
into the surge tank through the purge
control solenoid valve.
Purge Control Solenoid Valve
(PCSV)
The purge control solenoid valve is
controlled by the Engine Control
Module (ECM); when the engine
coolant temperature is low during
idling, the PCSV closes so that evap-
orated fuel is not taken into the
engine. After the engine warms-up
during ordinary driving, the PCSV
opens to introduce evaporated fuel to
the engine.
3. Exhaust emission control
system
The Exhaust Emission Control System
is a highly effective system which con-
trols exhaust emissions whilst main-
taining good vehicle performance.
Engine exhaust gas precautions
(carbon monoxide)
Carbon monoxide can be present
with other exhaust fumes. Therefore,
if you smell exhaust fumes of any
kind inside your vehicle, have it
inspected and repaired immediately.
If you ever suspect exhaust fumes
are coming into your vehicle, drive it
only with all the windows fully open.
Have your vehicle checked and
repaired immediately. Do not operate the engine in con-
fined or closed areas (such as
garages) any more than what is
necessary to move the vehicle in or
out of the area.
When the vehicle is stopped in an
open area for more than a short
time with the engine running,
adjust the ventilation system (as
needed) to draw outside air into the
vehicle.
Never sit in a parked or stopped
vehicle for any extended time with
the engine running.
When the engine stalls or fails to
start, excessive attempts to restart
the engine may cause damage to
the emission control system.
Engine exhaust gases contain
carbon monoxide (CO). Though
colourless and odourless, it is
dangerous and could be lethal if
inhaled. Follow the instructions
following to avoid CO poisoning.

Refer to “Fuel Requirements” in the Introduction chapter.
Always be sure to clean the area around any filler plug, drain plug, or dipstick before checking or draining
any lubricant. This is especially important in dusty or sandy areas and when the vehicle is used on unpaved
roads. Cleaning the plug and dipstick areas will prevent dirt and grit from entering the engine and other
mechanisms that could be damaged.
CAUTION
Recommended SAE viscosity number
Engine oil viscosity (thickness) has an effect on fuel economy and cold weather operating (engine start and engine
oil flowability). Lower viscosity engine oils can provide better fuel economy and cold weather performance, however,
higher viscosity engine oils are required for satisfactory lubrication in hot weather. Using oils of any viscosity other
than those recommended could result in engine damage.
