o Air Cleaner Filter
A Genuine Hyundai air cleaner filter is
recommended when the filter is re- placed. F060J01A-AAT
o Spark Plugs
(For Gasoline Engine)
Make sure to install new spark plugs of the correct heat range.
F060E01A-AAT
o Timing belt Inspect all parts related to the timing belt for damage and deformation. Re- place any damaged parts immediately. F060G01A-AAT
o Vapor Hose and Fuel Filler Cap The vapor hose and fuel filler cap should be inspected at those intervals specified in the maintenance sched-ule. Make sure that a new vapor hose or fuel filler cap is correctly replaced. F060F0HP-AAT
o 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. Particu- lar attention should be paid to examine those hose surfaces nearest to highheat sources, such as the exhaust manifold.
Inspect the hose routing to assure that
the hoses do not come in contact with any heat source, sharp edges or mov-ing component which might cause heat damage or mechanical wear. Inspect all hose connections, such as clampsand couplings, to make sure they are secure, and that no leaks are present. Hoses should be replaced immedi-ately if there is any evidence of dete- rioration or damage.
F070C01A-AAT
o Coolant
The coolant should be changed atthe intervals specified in the mainte- nance schedule. F070B01A-GAT
o Cooling System
Check the cooling system part, such
as radiator, coolant reservoir, hosesand connections for leakage and dam-age. Replace any damaged parts.

10CHECKING AND CHANGING THE ENGINE COOLANT
!
G050A01A-AAT
WARNING:
Do not remove the radiator cap when the engine is hot. When the engine is hot, the engine coolant is underpressure and may erupt through the opening if the cap is removed. You could be seriously burned if you donot observe this precaution. Do not remove the radiator cap until the radiator is cool to touch.
G350A01A-GAT ENGINE OIL CONSUMPTION Function of Engine Oil Engine oil has the primary function of lubricating and cooling the inside of the engine. Engine oil consumption
It is normal that an engine should
consume some engine oil while nor- mal driving. The cause of oil con-sumption in a normal engine are as follows;
o Engine oil is used to lubricate pis-
tons, piston rings and cylinders. A thin film of oil is left on thecylinder wall when a piston movesdownwards in the cylinder. High negative pressure generated dur- ing engine operation sucks someof the oil into the combustion cham- ber. This oil with some oil of the cylin- der wall is burned by the high tem- perature combustion gases duringthe combustion process.
o The engine oil consumption is strongly effected by the viscosityand quality of oil, engine rpm and driving condition etc. The engine oil is more consumed under severedriving conditions such as high speeds and frequent acceleration and deceleration than normal driv-ing condition.
!
! CAUTION:
Slowly pour the recommended oil using by a funnel. Do not overfillnot to damage engine.
WARNING:
Be very careful not to touch the radiator hose when adding the en- gine oil as it may be hot enough toburn you.

To Check the Coolant Level
The coolant level can be seen on the
side of the plastic coolant reservoir. The level of the coolant should be between the "LOW" and "FULL" lines on the reservoir when the engine iscool. If the level is below the "LOW" mark, add engine coolant to bring it up between "LOW" and "FULL". If thelevel is low, inspect for coolant leaks and recheck the fluid level frequently. If the level drops again, visit yourHyundai dealer for an inspection and diagnosis of the reason. G050D02HP-GAT
To Change the Engine Coolant
The engine coolant should be changed at those intervals specified in the ve- hicle maintenance schedule in Sec- tion 5.
CAUTION:
Engine coolant can damage the fin-ish of your car. If you spill enginecoolant on the car, wash it off thor- oughly with clean water.
1. Park the car on level ground, set the parking brake and remove the radia- tor cap when cool.
G050B01A-DAT
Recommended Engine Coolant
Use a high quality ethylene-glycol cool-ant in a 50/50 mix with water. Theengine coolant should be compatible with aluminum engine parts. Addi- tional corrosion inhibitors or additivesshould not be used. The cooling sys- tem must be maintained with the cor- rect concentration and type of enginecoolant to prevent freezing and corro- sion. Never allow the concentration of antifreeze to exceed the 60% level orgo below the 35% level, otherwise damage to the cooling system may result. For proper concentration whenadding or replacing the engine cool- ant, refer to the following table. HHP5005
G050D02HP
Gasoline Engine only

NOTE: Gasoline Engine Only Before adding the coolant to the radiator, unscrew the bolts on theengine cover, remove the engine cover and unscrew the flange bolt for fitting water outlet to escapethe excess pressure. And if the coolant overflows from the hole while adding the coolant, screwthe bolt and continue to add the coolant.
G050D01HP 2. Turn the radiator cap counterclock-
wise without pressing down on it, until it stops. This relieves any pres- sure remaining in the cooling sys- tem. And remove the radiator capby pushing down and turning coun- terclockwise.
3. Be sure your drain receptacle is in place. Open the drain cock on theradiator. Allow all the engine cool- ant to drain from the cooling sys-tem, then securely close the drain cock. HHP5006

4. Check Section 9 for the capacity of
the cooling system in your car. Then, following the manufacturer’s directions on the engine coolant container, add the appropriate quan-tity of coolant to the radiator.
5. Fill the radiator with clean deminer-
alized or distilled water. Continueto add clean demineralized or dis- tilled water in small quantities until the fluid level stays up in the radia-tor neck.
