Maintenance  
EXPLANATION OF SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE ITEMS  
Engine oil and filter  
Fuel filter (For Europe)  
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.  
This petrol powered vehicle is equipped  
with a lifetime fuel filter that is  
integrated with the fuel tank. Regular  
maintenance or replacement is not  
needed; however, the quality of fuel  
used may impact the frequency of  
maintenance needed. If there are any  
fuel related problems like fuel flow  
restriction, surging, loss of power,  
hard starting problem etc, fuel filter  
inspection or replacement may be  
needed. We recommend the fuel filter  
be inspected or replaced by a HYUNDAI  
authorised repairer.  
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.  
Fuel lines, fuel hoses and  
connections  
CAUTION  
When you are inspecting the belt, place  
the ignition switch to the lock/off or  
ACC position.  
Check the fuel lines, fuel hoses and  
connections for leakage and damage.  
We recommend that the fuel lines, fuel  
hoses and connections be replaced by a  
HYUNDAI authorised repairer.  
Fuel filter (Except Europe)  
A clogged filter can limit the speed  
at which the vehicle may be driven,  
damage the emission system and cause  
multiple issues such as hard starting.  
If an excessive amount of foreign  
matter accumulates in the fuel tank, the  
filter may require replacement more  
frequently.  
Vapour hose and fuel filler cap  
The vapour hose and fuel filler cap  
should be inspected at those intervals  
specified in the maintenance schedule.  
Make sure that a new vapour hose or  
fuel filler cap is correctly replaced.  
After installing a new filter, run the  
engine for several minutes, and  
check for leaks at the connections.  
We recommend that the fuel filter be  
replaced by a HYUNDAI authorised  
repairer.

Vacuum crankcase ventilation  
hoses (if equipped)  
Cooling system  
Check the cooling system parts, such  
as radiator, coolant reservoir, hoses and  
connections for leakage and damage.  
Replace any damaged parts.  
Inspect 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.  
Engine coolant  
The coolant should be changed at the  
intervals specified in the maintenance  
schedule.  
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.  
Manual transmission fluid/iMT  
system actuator fluid  
(if equipped)  
Inspect the Manual transmission fluid/  
iMT system actuator fluid according to  
the maintenance schedule.  
Automatic transmission fluid  
(if equipped)  
Automatic transmission fluid should  
not be checked under normal usage  
conditions.  
We recommend that the automatic  
transmission fluid is changed by a  
HYUNDAI authorised repairer according  
to the maintenance schedule.  
Air cleaner filter  
We recommend that the air cleaner filter  
be replaced by a HYUNDAI authorised  
repairer.  
Spark plugs  
(for petrol engine)  
Make sure to install new spark plugs of  
the correct heat range.
