fuel tank, the filter may require

replacement more frequently.

Drive belts

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 an authorized HYUNDAI

dealer.

Inspect all drive belts for evidence of

cuts, cracks, excessive wear or oil

saturation and replace if necessary.

Drive belts should be checked peri-

odically for proper tension and

adjusted as necessary.

People

using

pacemakers

should not move than 30cm

closer to the ECU or wiring har-

ness within the engine room

while engine is running, since

the high currents in the

Common Rail system produce

considerable magnetic fields.

Fuel lines, fuel hoses and con-

nections

CAUTION

When you are inspecting the

belt, place the ignition switch in

the LOCK/OFF or ACC position.

Check the fuel lines, fuel hoses and

connections for leakage and dam-

age. We recommend that the fuel

vals specified in the maintenance

schedule. Make sure that a new

vapor hose or fuel filler cap is cor-

rectly replaced.

We recommend that the air cleaner

filter be replaced by an authoized

HYUNDAI dealer.

Inspect the surface of hoses for evi-

dence of heat and/or mechanical

damage. Hard and brittle rubber,

cracking, tears, cuts, abrasions, and

excessive swelling indicate deterio-

ration. Particular attention should be

as the exhaust manifold.

Inspect the hose routing to assure

that the hoses do not come in con-

tact 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 pres-

ent. Hoses should be replaced

immediately if there is any evidence

of deterioration or damage.

WARNING

Do not disconnect and inspect

spark plugs when the engine is

hot.You may burn yourself.

Valve clearance

(for gasoline engine)

Inspect excessive valve noise and/or

engine vibration and adjust if neces-

sary. We recommend that the system

be serviced by an authorized

HYUNDAI dealer.

be checked under normal usage

conditions.

We recommend that the automatic

transaxle fluid changed by an author-

ized HYUNDAI dealer according to

the maintenance schedule.

The use of a non-specified fluid

Visually check for proper installation,

chafing, cracks, deterioration and

any leakage. Replace any deteriorat-

ed or damaged parts immediately.

Check the pads for excessive wear, Check the power steering pump and

discs for run out and wear, and hoses for leakage and damage.

calipers for fluid leakage.

Replace any damaged or leaking

parts immediately. Inspect the power

steering belt (or drive belt) for evi-

dence of cuts, cracks, excessive

wear, oiliness and proper tension.

Replace or adjust it if necessary.

For more information on checking

the pads or lining wear limit, refer to

the HYUNDAI web site.

Brake fluid

Check brake fluid level in the brake

fluid reservoir. The level should be

between “MIN” and “MAX” marks on

the side of the reservoir. Use only

hydraulic brake fluid conforming to

DOT 3 or DOT 4 specification.
