automatic transmission fluid HYUNDAI PALISADE 2023 Owners Manual

Vehicle Information, Consumer Information and Reporting Safety Defects2-12
To help achieve proper engine and powertrain performance and durability, use only
lubricants of the proper quality. The correct lubricants also help promote engine
efficiency that results in improved fuel economy.
These lubricants and fluids are recommended for use in your vehicle.

chapter 1.
*1 : Refer to the recommended SAE viscosity numbers on the next page.
*2 : Engine oils labeled Energy Conserving Oil are now available. Along with other additional
benefits, they contribute to fuel economy by reducing the amount of fuel necessary
to overcome engine friction. Often, these improvements are difficult to measure in
everyday driving, but in a year’s time, they can offer significant cost and energy savings.
*3 : Requires grade engine oil. If a
lower grade engine oil (mineral oil including Semi-synthetic) is used, then the engine oil
and engine oil filter must be replaced as indicated for severe maintenance conditions.
*4 : To maintain the best braking performance and ABS/ESC performance, we recommend
that you use genuine brake fluid that conform to specifications.
*5 : If the rear differential is submerged, have you visit an authorized retailer of HYUNDAI
genuine products to replace the differential oil.

M: Distance

[Use a towing cable or chain less than
16 ft. (5 m) long. Attach a white or red
cloth (about 12 in. (30 cm) wide) in the
middle of the cable or chain for easy
visibility.

[ Drive carefully so the towing cable or
chain remains tight during towing.

[ Before towing, check the automatic
transmission for fluid leaks under your
vehicle. If the automatic transmission
fluid is leaking, flatbed equipment or a
towing dolly must be used.
NOTICE
Accelerate or decelerate the vehicle
in a slow and gradual manner while
maintaining tension on the tow rope
or chain to start or drive the vehicle,
otherwise tow hooks and the vehicle
may be damaged.
NOTICE
To avoid damage to your vehicle and
vehicle components when towing:

[Always pull straight ahead when
using the towing hooks. Do not pull
from the side or at a vertical angle.

[ Do not use the towing hooks to pull
a vehicle out of mud, sand or other
conditions from which the vehicle
cannot be driven out under its own
power.

[ Limit the vehicle speed to 10 mph
(15 km/h) and drive less than 1
mile (1.5 km) when towing to avoid
serious damage to the automatic
transmission.

Maintenance9-6
Owner Maintenance Schedule
When you stop for fuel:

[ Check the coolant level in the engine
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: (for example,
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 headlight 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.

Engine Oil and Filter
The engine oil and filter should be
changed at the intervals specified in the
maintenance schedule. If the vehicle
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
periodically for proper tension and
adjusted as necessary.
Information
When you are inspecting the belt, turn the
engine off.
Fuel Lines, Fuel Hoses and
Connections
Check the fuel lines, fuel hoses and
connections for leakage and damage.
Have an authorized HYUNDAI dealer
replace any damaged or leaking parts
immediately.
Vapor Hose and Fuel Filler Cap
The vapor hose and fuel filler cap should
be inspected at those intervals specified
in the maintenance schedule. Make sure
a new vapor hose or fuel filler cap is
correctly replaced.
Air Cleaner Filter
Have the air cleaner filter replaced by an
authorized HYUNDA dealer.
Spark Plugs
Make sure to install new spark plugs of
the correct heat range.
When assembling parts, be sure to
wipe out foreign substances inside
and outside of the boot bottom of the
ignition coil and the insulator of the
spark plug with a soft cloth to prevent
contamination of the spark plug
insulator.
Cooling System
Check cooling system components, 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 maintenance
schedule.
Automatic Transmission Fluid
The automatic transmission fluid level
does not need to be checked under
normal usage conditions.
Have the automatic transmission fluid
changed by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer according to the maintenance
schedule.
Information
Automatic transmission fluid color 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 color
change.
EXPLANATION OF SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE ITEMS

Maintenance9-14
NOTICE
The use of a non-specified fluid could
result in transmission malfunction and
failure.
Use only specified automatic
transmission fluid. (Refer to
“Recommended Lubricants and
Capacities” section in chapter 2.)
Brake Hoses and Lines
Visually check for proper installation,
chafing, cracks, deterioration and any
leakage. Replace any deteriorated or
damaged parts immediately.
Brake Fluid
Check the brake fluid level in the brake
fluid reservoir. The level should be
between the MIN and the MAX marks
on the side of the reservoir. Use only
hydraulic brake fluid conforming to DOT
4 specification.
Brake Discs, Pads, Calipers and
Rotors
Check the pads, the discs and the rotors
for any excessive wear-out. Inspect
calipers for any fluid leakage.
Exhaust Pipe and Muffler
Visually inspect the exhaust pipes,
muffler and hangers for cracks,
deterioration, or damage. Start
the engine and listen carefully for
any exhaust gas leakage. Tighten
connections or replace parts as
necessary.
Propeller Shaft
Check the propeller shaft, boots, clamps,
rubber couplings and center-bearing
rubber for cracks, deterioration, or
damage. Replace any damaged parts
and if necessary, repack the grease.
Suspension Mounting Bolts
Check the suspension connections for
looseness or damage. Retighten to the
specified torque.
Steering Gear Box, Linkage &
Boots/Lower Arm Ball Joint
With the vehicle stopped and the engine
off, check for excessive free-play in the
steering wheel. Check the linkage for
bends or damage. Check the dust boots
and ball joints for deterioration, cracks,
or damage.
Replace any damaged parts.
Drive Shafts and Boots
Check the drive shafts, boots and clamps
for cracks, deterioration, or damage.
Replace any damaged parts and, if
necessary, repack the grease.
Air Conditioning Refrigerant
Check the air conditioning lines and
connections for leakage and damage.
