The air conditioner filter is located in front of the
evaporator unit behind the glove box.
It operates to decrease pollutants from entering
the car and to filter the air.
To replace the air conditioner filter, refer to the
page 6-15.

mode will be automatically selected and the air
will be discharged through the windshield de-
frost nozzle, side defroster nozzle and side
ventilator. To assist in defrosting the air condi-
tioning will operate if ambient temperature is
higher than 38.3°F (3.5°C) and automatically
turns off if the ambient temperature drops below
38.3°F (3.5°C).

B740D01Y-AATOperation Tipso If the interior of the car is hot when you first
get in, open the windows for a few minutes
to expel the hot air.
o When you are using the air conditioning
system, keep all windows closed to keep hot
air out.
o When moving slowly, as in heavy traffic, shift
to a lower gear. This increases engine speed,
which in turn increases the speed of the air
conditioning compressor.
o On steep grades, turn the air conditioning off
to avoid the possibility of the engine over-
heating.
o During winter months or in periods when the
air conditioning is not used regularly, run the
air conditioning once every month for a few
minutes. This will help circulate the lubri-
cants and keep your system in peak oper-
ating condition.
!
CAUTION:
o Replace the filter every 12,000 miles
(20,000 km) or once a year.
If the car is being driven in severe condi-
tions such as dusty, rough roads, more
frequent air conditioner filter inspec-
tions and changes are required.
o When the air flow rate is decreased, it
must be checked at an authorized
Hyundai dealer.
o If your vehicle is not equipped with this
filter, it can be installed by your dealer.
Check with your dealer for details.

EXPLANATION OF SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE ITEMS
F060J01A-AATo Spark plugsMake sure to install new spark plugs of the
correct heat range.F060H01A-AATo Air cleaner filterA Genuine Hyundai air cleaner filter is recom-
mended when the filter is replaced.F060G01A-AATo Vapor Hose and Fuel Filler CapThe vapor hose and fuel filler cap should be
inspected at those intervals specified in the
maintenance schedule. Make sure that a new
vapor hose or fuel filler cap is correctly re-
placed.
F060F01A-AATo Vacuum, Crankcase
Ventilation HosesInspect the surface of hoses for evidence of
heat and/or mechanical damage. Hard and
brittle rubber, cracking, tears, cuts, abrasions,
and excessive swelling indicate deterioration.
Particular attention should be paid to examine
those hose surfaces nearest to high heat
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 moving component
which might cause heat damage or mechanical
wear. Inspect all hose connections, such as
clamps and couplings, to make sure they are
secure, and that no leaks are present. Hoses
should be replaced immediately if there is any
evidence of deterioration or damage.F060D01A-AATo Fuel Lines, Fuel Hoses and Connec-
tionsCheck the fuel lines, fuel hoses and connec-
tions for leakage and damage. Have a trained
technician replace any damaged or leaking
parts immediately.
F060C01A-AATo Fuel FilterA clogged filter can limit the speed at which the
vehicle may be driven, damage the emission
system and cause hard starting. If an exces-
sive amount of foreign matter accumulates in
the fuel tank, the filter may require replacement
more frequently.
After installing a new filter, run the engine for
several minutes, and check for leaks at the
connections. Fuel filters should be installed by
trained technicians.F060A01A-AAT
F060M01A-AATo Engine Oil and FilterThe engine oil and filter should be changed at the
intervals specified in the maintenance sched-
ule. If the car is being driven in severe condi-
tions, more frequent oil and filter changes are
required.
F060B01A-AATo Drive BeltsInspect all drive belts for evidence of cuts,
cracks, excessive wear or oil and replace if
necessary. Drive belts should be checked
periodically for proper tension and adjusted as
necessary.

CHANGING THE AIR CLEANER
FILTER
!
NOTE:
o Spark plugs should be tightened firmly.
Overtightening can damage the threads
in the aluminum cylinder head. Also,
leaving them too loose can cause the
spark plug to get very hot and posibly
result in damage to the engine.
o It is recommended that spark plugs be
changed by an authorized Hyundai
dealer.
WARNING:
It is recommended that the engine be cool
or cold when changing the spark plugs. If
the engine is hot, you could burn yourself
on the insulated connector, the spark plug
or the engine itself.
G070A02Y-AATThe replacement of air cleaner filter is per-
formed in the following manner.
1. Unsnap the clips around the cover.
2. When this is done, the cover can be lifted off,
the old filter removed and the new filter put in
its place.
Genuine Hyundai replacement parts are rec-
ommended.
CAUTION:
Operating your vehicle without a proper air
cleaner filter in place can result in excessive
engine wear. When removing the air cleaner
filter, be careful that dust or dirt does not
enter the air intake. These may result in
damage to the air cleaner filter.
