12IF YOUR VEHICLE MUST BE TOWED
D080A01O-GAT If your vehicle has to be towed, it should be done by your Hyundai authorised repairer or a commercial tow truck ser- vice. This will help assure that yourvehicle is not damaged in towing. Also, professionals are generally aware of local laws governing towing. In anycase, rather than risk damage to your car, it is suggested that you show this information to the tow truck operator.Be sure that a safety chain system is used and that all local laws are ob- served.It is recommended that your vehicle be towed with a wheel lift and dollies or flatbed equipment with all the wheelsoff the ground.
! CAUTION:
o Your vehicle can be damaged if towed incorrectly!
o Be sure the transaxle is in neutral.
o When the engine will not start, be sure the steering is unlocked by placing the key in the "ACC" posi- tion. HFC005

If the valve cap is lost from any of the valves, a replacement should be ob-tained and fitted at the first available opportunity. The valve cap prevents the ingress of dirt which may cause thevalve to stick and therefore leak and is part of the valve sealing function. Ensure that the spare wheel, jack and wheel nut wrench as well tools are correctly located in the boot of thevehicle to prevent damage and noise.
D080B01O-GAT Towing the Vehicle Your vehicle can be towed by wheel lift type truck (1), (2) or flatbed equipment (3).

EMERGENCY TOWING
D080D04A-EAT For emergency towing when no com- mercial tow vehicle is available, attach a tow cable, chain or strap to one of thetowing hooks under the front/rear of your vehicle. Do not attempt to tow your vehicle in this manner on any unpavedsurface. This could result in serious damage to your vehicle. Nor should towing be attempted if thewheels, drive train, axles, steering or brakes are damaged. Before towing, be sure the transaxle is in neutral and thekey is in "ACC" (with the engine off) or in the "ON" position (with the engine running). A driver must be in the towedvehicle to steer it and operate the brakes. D080D04FC

SERVICE HISTORY
It is important that all scheduled main-
tenance services are recorded in the warranty and service passport to en- sure that proof of maintenance is avail-able when warranty service is required.
SF020C2-E
Specified Scheduled Procedures
The Specified scheduled procedures
are listed in the maintenance chartsbeginning at page 5-3. The operations specified must be performed at the time or mileage intervals shown irre-spective of whether the mileage inter- val has been reached before the speci- fied time interval.
Certain lubricants and components
degrade with both time and mileage(e.g. engine oil and brake fluid) andtherefore it is not permissable to base the maintenance schedule upon mile- age alone. It is strongly recommendedthat the maintenance operations are
SF020A1-E To ensure the continued reliability and safety of the vehicle, certain routine maintenance operations are requiredat specific mileage or time intervals.It is the responsibility of the vehicleowner to ensure that the maintenanceschedules shown in both this Owners Manual and the Warranty and Service Passport are adhered to.The new vehicle warranty may beinvalidated if the routine maintenanceoperations are not performed in line with the recommendations outlined and the safety and durability of the vehicleadversely affected.It is recommended that all mainte-nance operations with the exception ofthe daily operating checks are en- trusted to a Hyundai authorised re- pairer to ensure that the latest repairand maintenance procedures and specialised servicing tools are em- ployed.In addition, the use of genuine Hyundaireplacement parts will ensure that thevehicle safety and performance will not be compromised.
performed by the factory-trained or distributor-trained technicians at yourHyundai authorised repairer because of the need for specialised knowledge and tooling and to ensure that nopossibility of invalidating the manufac- turers warranty exists.
The maintenance schedules relate to
vehicles operated under normal condi-tions, vehicles which are operated under adverse conditions will requiremore frequent maintenance which is described at page 5-6. NOTE:
Service schedules may change de-
pending on individual country needs. Please ask your localHyundai authorised repairer for a copy of the service schedule that relates to that country.
MAINTENANCE AND SERVICING REQUIREMENTS
NOTE:The inspection and testing of cer-
tain electronic fuel injection/engine management and automatic trans- mission control systems requirespecialised electronic equipment specifically designed for Hyundai vehicles. The use of general pur-pose electrical test equipment may result in damage to the control unit microprocessors.

!
6ZF060M1-A
o 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. 6ZF060B1-A
o Drive Belts
Inspect all drive belts for evidence of cuts, cracks, excessive wear or oil contamination and replace if neces- sary. Drive belts should be checkedperiodically for proper tension and ad- justed as necessary. 6ZF060C1-A
o Fuel Filter A clogged filter can limit the speed at which the vehicle may be driven, dam- age the emission system and cause hard starting. If an excessive amountof foreign matter accumulates in the fuel tank, the filter may require re- placement more frequently.After installing a new filter, run theengine for several minutes, and checkfor leaks at the connections.
WARNING (Diesel only):
Never work on injection system with engine running or within 30 sec- onds after shutting off engine. Highpressure pump, rail, injectors and high pressure pipes are subject to high pressure even after the enginestopped. The fuel jet produced by fuel leaks may cause serious injury, if it contacts the body. People usingpacemakers should ensure that they keep a distance of 30cm from the ECU or wiring harness within theengine room whilst engine is run- ning, since the high currents in the Common Rail system produce con-siderable magnetic fields.
6ZF060D2-A
o Fuel lines, Fuel Hoses and
Connections
Check the fuel lines, fuel hoses and connections for leakage and damage. Replace any damaged or leaking parts immediately.

6ZF060H1-A
o Air Cleaner Filter
A Genuine Hyundai air cleaner filter is
recommended when filter is replaced.
6ZF060J1-A
o Spark Plugs
Make sure to install new spark plugs
of the correct heat range.
6ZF070B1-A
o Cooling System
Check the cooling system part, such
as radiator, coolant reservoir, hoses and connections for leakage and dam- age. Replace any damaged parts.
6ZF060E1-A
o Timing Belt Replace timimg belt and inspect all associated parts related for damage and deformation. Replace any dam- aged parts immediately. 6ZF060G1-A
o Vapour Hose and Fuel Filler Cap The vapour hose and fuel filler cap should be inspected at those intervals specified in the maintenance sched-ule. Make sure that a new vapour hose or fuel filler cap is correctly replaced.
6ZF060F1-A
o Vacuum, Crankcase
Ventilation Hoses
Inspect the surface of hoses for evi-
dence of heat and/or mechanical dam-age. Hard and brittle rubber, cracking, tears, cuts, abrasions, and excessiveswelling indicate deterioration. Partic- ular attention should be paid to exam- ining those hose surfaces nearest tohigh heat sources, such as the ex- haust manifold.
Inspect the hose routing to assure that
the hoses do not come in contact withany heat source, sharp edges or mov- ing component which might cause heatdamage or mechanical wear. Inspect all hose connections, such as clamps and couplings, to make sure they aresecure, and that no leaks are present. Hoses should be replaced immedi- ately if there is any evidence of dete-rioration or damage. F060N02E-AAT
o Valve Clearance
Inspect excessive valve noise and/or
engine vibration and adjust if neces-sary. A qualified technician should perform the operation.
