Owner maintenance schedule
When you stop for fuel:
Check the coolant level in the engine
coolant reservoir or the water-cooled
intercooler coolant reservoir.
Check the windshield washer fluid
level.
Check for low or under-inflated tires.
WARNING
Be careful when checking your coolant
level when the engine is hot. This may
result in coolant being blown out of the
opening and cause serious burns and
other injuries.
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 if there is any increased
steering effort or looseness in the
steering wheel, or change in its
straight-ahead position.
Notice if your vehicle constantly turns
slightly or “pulls” to one side when
traveling on smooth, level road.
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 the automatic transmission P
(Park) function.
Check the parking brake.
Check for fluid leaks under your
vehicle (water dripping from the air
conditioning system during or after
use is normal).
At least monthly:
Check coolant level in the engine
coolant reservoir.
Check the operation of all exterior
lights, including the stoplights, turn
signals and hazard warning flashers.
Check the inflation pressures of all
tires including the spare for tires that
are worn, show uneven wear, or are
damaged.
Check for loose wheel lug nuts.
At least twice a year: (i.e., every
Spring and Autumn)
Check radiator, heater and air
conditioning hoses for leaks or
damage.
Check windshield washer spray and
wiper operation. Clean wiper blades
with a clean cloth dampened with
washer fluid.
Check headlamp alignment.
Check muffler, exhaust pipes, shields
and clamps.
Check the seat belts for wear and
function.
At least once a year:
Clean body and door drain holes.
Lubricate door hinges and hood
hinges.
Lubricate door and hood locks and
latches.
Lubricate door rubber weather strips.
Check the air conditioning system.
Inspect and lubricate automatic
transmission linkage and controls.
Clean the battery and terminals.
Check the brake fluid level.

Recommended coolant
When adding coolant, use only
deionized water, distilled water or soft
water for your vehicle and never mix
hard water in the coolant filled at the
factory.
An incorrect coolant mixture can
result in severe malfunction or engine
damage.
The engine in your vehicle has
aluminum engine parts and must be
protected by an phosphate-based
ethylene glycol coolant to prevent
corrosion and freezing.
Do not use alcohol or methanol
coolant or mix them with the specified
coolant.
Do not use a solution that contains
more than 60% antifreeze or less than
35% antifreeze, which would reduce
the effectiveness of the solution.
For mixing percentage, refer to the
following table:
Ambient
Temperature
Mixture Percentage
(volume)
Antifreeze Water
5°F (-15°C) 35 65
-13°F (-25°C) 40 60
-31°F (-35°C) 50 50
-49°F (-45°C) 60 40
Information
Changing coolant
We recommend that coolant be changed
by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer
according to the Maintenance Schedule
at the beginning of this chapter.
WARNING
Do not use engine coolant or antifreeze
in the washer fluid reservoir.
Engine coolant can severely obscure
visibility when sprayed on the
windshield and may cause loss of
vehicle control resulting in an accident.
Engine coolant may also cause damage
to paint and body trim.
NOTICE
To prevent damage to engine parts, put
a thick towel around the engine coolant
cap and/or inverter coolant cap before
refilling the coolant to prevent the
coolant from overflowing into engine
parts, such as the alternator.

PARKING BRAKEWASHER FLUID
Checking the washer fluid level
OOS090012K
Check the fluid level in the washer fluid
reservoir and add fluid if necessary. Plain
water may be used if washer fluid is not
available. However, use washer solvent
with antifreeze characteristics in cold
climates to prevent freezing.
WARNING
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 windshield and
may cause loss of vehicle control
resulting in an accident or damage to
paint and body trim.
Do not allow sparks or flame to
contact the washer fluid or the
washer fluid reservoir. Washer fluid
may contain alcohol and can be
flammable.
Do not drink washer fluid and avoid
contact with skin. Washer fluid is
harmful to humans and animals.
Keep washer fluid away from
children and animals.
Checking the Parking Brake
OOS057010
Check the stroke of the parking brake
by counting the number of “clicks”
heard while 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, have the
parking brake adjusted by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
Stroke : 5~7 clicks at a force of 44 lbs
(20 kg, 196 N)

Blade inspection
Contamination of either the windshield
or the wiper blades with foreign matter
can reduce the effectiveness of the
windshield wipers.
Common sources of contamination are
insects, tree sap, and hot wax treatments
used by some commercial car washes. If
the blades are not wiping properly, clean
both the window and the blades with a
good cleaner or mild detergent, and rinse
thoroughly with clean water.
NOTICE
To prevent damage to the wiper blades,
arms or other components, do not:
Use gasoline, kerosene, paint
thinner, or other solvents on or near
them.
Attempt to move the wipers
manually.
Use non-specified wiper blades.
Information
Information
Blade replacement
When the wipers no longer clean
adequately, the blades may be worn or
cracked, and require replacement.
NOTICE
To prevent damage to the wiper arms
or other components, do not attempt to
move the wipers manually.
NOTICE
The use of a non-specified wiper blade
could result in wiper malfunction and
failure.
NOTICE
In order to prevent damage to the
hood and the wiper arms, the wiper
arms should only be lifted when in
the top wiping position.
Always return the wiper arms to the
windshield before driving.
