Extracting air in the fuel filter
(1.6L Diesel engine)
If you drove until you have no fuel left or
if you replaced the fuel filter, be sure to
extract air in the fuel system as it makes
you difficult to start the engine.
The fuel filter for diesel engine plays an
important role of separating water from
fuel and accumulating the water in its
bottom.
If water accumulates in the fuel filter, the
warning light comes on when the ignition
switch is in the ON position.
1. Disconnect the fuel outlet connector
(1) from the fuel filter.
If the light is turned on, take your car to
the authorised HYUNDAI dealer and
have drain the water and checked the
system.
2. Pump up and down until the fuel flows
out of the fuel outlet nipple.
