ate the diesel engine for several min-

utes, and check the connections for

any leakages. Fuel filters should be

installed by an authorized HYUNDAI

dealer.

The engine oil and filter should be

changed at the intervals specified in

the maintenance schedule. If the car

is being driven in severe conditions,

more frequent oil and filter changes

are required.

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

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 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.

Fuel Lines, Fuel Hoses and

Connections

Drive Belts

Check the fuel lines, fuel hoses and

connections for leakage and dam-

age. Have an authorized HYUNDAI

dealer replace any damaged or leak-

ing parts immediately.

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.

Vapor Hose and Fuel Filler

Cap

Fuel Filter

A clogged-up fuel filter may limit the

vehicle driving speed, damage the

emission system, and cause the

hard starting. When a considerable

amount of foreign substances are

accumulated in the fuel tank, the fuel

filter should be replaced.

The vapor hose and fuel filler cap

should be inspected at those inter-

vals specified in the maintenance

schedule. Make sure a new vapor

hose or fuel filler cap is correctly

replaced.

BRAKE FLUID

Checking the Brake Fluid

Level

If the level is low, add the specified

brake fluid to the MAX level.The level

will fall with accumulated mileage.

This is a normal condition associated

with the wear of the brake linings. If

the fluid level is excessively low, have

the brake system checked by an

authorized HYUNDAI dealer.

NOTICE

• Do not allow brake fluid to con-

tact the vehicle’s body paint, as

paint damage will result.

• Brake fluid, which has been

exposed to open air for an

extended time should NEVER be

used as its quality cannot be

guaranteed. It should be dis-

posed of properly.

WARNING

• Do not use the wrong kind of

brake fluid. A few drops of min-

eral based oil, such as engine

oil, in your brake system can

damage brake system parts.

If the brake system requires fre-

quent additions of fluid this

could indicate a leak in the

brake system. Have the vehicle

inspected by an authorized

HYUNDAI dealer.

Maintenance

TIRES AND WHEELS

Tire Care

• Replace tires that are worn,

show uneven wear, or are dam-

aged. Worn tires can cause

loss of braking effectiveness,

steering) control, or traction.

• ALWAYS replace tires with the

same size as each tire that

was originally supplied with

this vehicle. Using tires and

wheels other than the recom-

mended sizes could cause

unusual handling characteris-

tics, poor vehicle control, or

negatively affect your vehi-

cle's Anti-Lock Brake System

(ABS) resulting in a serious

accident.

WARNING

For proper maintenance, safety, and

maximum fuel economy, you must

always maintain recommended tire

inflation pressures and stay within

the load limits and weight distribution

recommended for your vehicle.

Tire failure may cause loss of

vehicle control resulting in an

accident. To reduce risk of

SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH,

take the following precautions:

• Inspect your tires monthly for

proper inflation as well as

wear and damage.

• The recommended cold tire

pressure for your vehicle can

be found in this manual and on

the tire label located on the dri-

ver's side center pillar. Always

use a tire pressure gauge to

measure tire pressure. Tires

with too much or too little

pressure wear unevenly caus-

ing poor handling.

OTLE085006

• Check the pressure of the

spare every time you check

the pressure of the other tires

on your vehicle.

All specifications (sizes and pres-

sures) can be found on a label

attached to the driver's side center

pillar.

7-36

Recommended Cold Tire

Inflation Pressures

WARNING

CAUTION

All tire pressures (including the

spare) should be checked when the

tires are cold. "Cold tires" means the

vehicle has not been driven for at

least three hours or driven for less

than one mile (1.6 km).

Warm tires normally exceed recom-

mended cold tire pressures by 4 to 6

psi (28 to 41 kPa). Do not release air

from warm tires to adjust the pres-

sure or the tires will be under-inflat-

ed. For recommended inflation pres-

sure, refer to "Tire and Wheels" in

chapter 8.

Recommended pressures must

be maintained for the best ride,

vehicle handling, and minimum

tire wear.

Over-inflation or under-inflation

can reduce tire life, adversely

affect vehicle handling, and

lead to sudden tire failure that

could result in loss of vehicle

control resulting in an accident.

Severe under-inflation can lead

to severe heat build-up, causing

blowouts, tread separation and

other tire failures that can result

in the loss of vehicle control

resulting in an accident. This

risk is much higher on hot days

and when driving for long peri-

ods at high speeds.

• Under-inflation results in

excessive wear, poor handling

and reduced fuel economy.

Wheel deformation is also

possible. Keep your tire pres-

sures at the proper levels. If a

tire frequently needs refilling,

have it checked by an author-

ized HYUNDAI dealer.

• Over-inflation produces

a

harsh ride, excessive wear at

the center of the tire tread,

and a greater possibility of

damage from road hazards.

7

7-37

Maintenance

If you overfill the tire, release air by

pushing on the metal stem in the

center of the tire valve. Recheck the

tire pressure with the tire gauge. Be

sure to put the valve caps back on

the valve stems. Without the valve

cap, dirt or moisture could get into

the valve core and cause air leakage.

If a valve cap is missing, install a new

one as soon as possible.

Check Tire Inflation Pressure

Check your tires, including the spare

tire, once a month or more.

Tire Rotation

To equalize tread wear, HYUNDAI

recommends that the tires be rotated

according to the maintenance sched-

ule or sooner if irregular wear devel-

ops.

During rotation, check the tires for

correct balance.

When rotating tires, check for uneven

wear and damage. Abnormal wear is

usually caused by incorrect tire pres-

sure, improper wheel alignment, out-

of-balance wheels, severe braking or

severe cornering. Look for bumps or

bulges in the tread or side of the tire.

Replace the tire if you find any of

these conditions. Replace the tire if

fabric or cord is visible. After rotation,

be sure to bring the front and rear tire

pressures to specification and check

lug nut tightness (proper torque is

79~94 lbf·ft [11~13 kgf·m]).

How to check

Use a good quality tire pressure

gauge to check tire pressure. You

can not tell if your tires are properly

inflated simply by looking at them.

Radial tires may look properly inflat-

ed when they are under-inflated.

Remove the valve cap from the tire

valve stem. Press the tire gauge firm-

ly onto the valve to get a pressure

measurement. If the cold tire inflation

pressure matches the recommended

pressure on the tire label located on

the driver's side center pillar or in this

manual. No further adjustment is

necessary. If the pressure is low, add

air until you reach the recommended

pressure. Make sure to put the valve

caps back on the valve stems.

Without the valve cap, dirt or mois-

ture could get into the valve core and

cause air leakage. If a valve cap is

missing, install a new one as soon as

possible.

Tire Replacement

• When replacing tires (or

wheels), it is recommended to

replace the two front or two

rear tires (or wheels) as a pair.

Replacing just one tire can

seriously affect your vehicle's

handling.

• Tires degrade over time, even

when they are not being used.

Regardless of the remaining

tread, HYUNDAI recommends

that tires be replaced after six

(6) years of normal service.

• Heat caused by hot climates or

frequent high loading condi-

tions can accelerate the aging

process. Failure to follow this

warning may cause sudden

tire failure, which could lead to

a loss of vehicle control result-

ing in an accident.

WARNING

Tire Traction

Tire traction can be reduced if you

drive on worn tires, tires that are

improperly inflated or on slippery

road surfaces. Tires should be

replaced when the tread depth is at

least 2/32 inch (1.6 mm). To reduce

the possibility of losing control, slow

down whenever there is rain, snow or

ice on the road.

All Season Tires

The portion of a tire that comes into

contact with the road.

HYUNDAI specifies all season tires

on some models to provide good

performance for use all year round,

including snowy and icy road condi-

tions. All season tires are identified

by ALL SEASON and/or M+S (Mud

and Snow) on the tire sidewall. Snow

tires have better snow traction than

all season tires and may be more

appropriate in some areas.

Treadwear Indicators

Narrow bands, sometimes called

"wear bars", that show across the

tread of a tire when only 1/16 inch of

tread remains.

Vehicle Normal Load on the Tire

Load on an individual tire that is

determined by distributing to each

axle its share of the curb weight,

accessory weight, and normal occu-

UTQGS

Uniform Tire Quality Grading

Standards is a tire information sys-

tem that provides consumers with

ratings for a tire’s traction, tempera-

ture and treadwear. Ratings are

determined by tire manufacturers

using government testing proce-

dures. The ratings are molded into

the sidewall of the tire.

Summer Tires

HYUNDAI specifies summer tires on

some models to provide superior

performance on dry roads. Summer

tire performance is substantially

reduced in snow and ice. Summer

tires do not have the tire traction rat-

ing M+S (Mud and Snow) on the tire

side wall. If you plan to operate your

vehicle in snowy or icy conditions,

HYUNDAI recommends the use of

snow tires or all season tires on all

four wheels.

Longer wearing tires can be more

susceptible to irregular tread wear. It

is very important to follow the tire

rotation interval in this chapter to

achieve the tread life potential of

these tires. Cuts and punctures in

radial-ply tires are repairable only in

the tread area, because of sidewall

flexing. Consult your tire dealer for

radial-ply tire repairs.

Maintenance

Low Aspect Ratio Tires

Low aspect ratio tires, the aspect

ratio is lower than 50, are provided

for sporty looks.

Because low aspect ratio tires are

optimized for handling and braking,

their sidewall is a little stiffer than a

standard tire. Also low aspect ratio

tires tend to be wider and conse-

quently have a greater contact patch

with the road surface. In some

instances they may generate more

road noise compared with standard

tires.

CAUTION

Because the sidewall of a low

aspect ratio tire is shorter than

a standard tire, the rim of the

wheel and the tire itself is more

easily susceptible to damage.

Use caution when driving and

follow the guidelines below to

help minimize damage to the

wheel and tire:

- When driving on a rough road

or off road, drive cautiously

because tires and wheels may

be damaged. And after driving,

inspect tires and wheels.

• It is not easy to recognize tire

damage with your own eyes.

But if there is the slightest

hint of tire damage, have the

tire checked or replaced

because the tire damage may

cause air leakage from the

tire.

• If the tire is damaged by driv-

ing on a rough road, off road,

pothole, manhole, or curb

stone, it will not be covered by

the warranty.

- When passing over a pothole,

speed bump, manhole, or curb

stone, drive slowly so that the

tires and wheels are not dam-

aged.

- If the tire is subjected to a

severe impact, have the tire

and wheel inspected by an

authorized HYUNDAI dealer.

- Inspect the tire condition and

pressure every 1,800 miles

(3,000km).

• A higher capacity fuse could

cause damage and possibly

cause a fire.

• Do not install a wire or alu-

minum foil instead of the

proper fuse - even as a tem-

porary repair. It may cause

extensive wiring damage and

possibly a fire.

■ Multi fuse

If the electrical system does not

work, first check the driver’s side

fuse panel. Before replacing a blown

fuse, turn the engine and all switches

off, and then disconnect the negative

battery cable. Always replace a

blown fuse with one of the same rat-

ing.

LIGHT BULBS

Consult an authorized HYUNDAI

dealer to replace most vehicle light

bulbs. It is difficult to replace vehicle

light bulbs because other parts of the

vehicle must be removed before you

can get to the bulb. This is especially

true for removing the headlamp

assembly to get to the bulb(s).

i

Information - Desiccant

(if equipped)

WARNING

• Prior to replacing a lamp,

depress the brake pedal,

move the shift lever into P

(Park) apply the parking

brake, place the igntion

switch to the LOCK/OFF posi-

tion, and take the key with you

when leaving the vehicle to

avoid sudden movement of

the vehicle and to prevent

possible electric shock.

This vehicle is equipped with desic-

cant to reduce fogging inside the head-

lamp due to moisture.

The desiccant is consumable and its

performance may change based on the

used period or environment.

If fogging inside the headlamp due to

moisture continues for a long time,

have your vehicle checked by an

authorized HYUNDAI dealer.

Removing/installing the headlamp

assembly can result in damage to

the vehicle.

i

Information

• Be aware the bulbs may be

hot and may burn your fin-

gers.

The headlamp and tail lamp lenses

could appear frosty if the vehicle is

washed after driving or the vehicle is

driven at night in wet weather. This

condition is caused by temperature

difference between the lamp inside

and outside and, it does not indicate a

problem with your vehicle. When

moisture condenses in the lamp, it will

be removed after driving with the

headlamp on. The removable level

may differ depending on lamp size,

lamp position and environmental con-

dition. However, if moisture is not

removed, we recommend that your

vehicle is inspected by an authorized

HYUNDAI dealer.

Exterior general caution

Protecting your vehicle’s finish

Washing

WARNING

To help protect your vehicle’s finish

from rust and deterioration, wash it

thoroughly and frequently at least

once a month with lukewarm or cold

water.

If you use your vehicle for off-road

driving, you should wash it after each

off-road trip. Pay special attention to

the removal of any accumulation of

salt, dirt, mud, and other foreign

materials. Make sure the drain holes

in the lower edges of the doors and

rocker panels are kept clear and

clean.

After washing the vehicle, test

the brakes while driving slowly

to see if they have been affected

by water before getting on the

road. If braking performance is

impaired, dry the brakes by

applying them lightly while main-

taining a slow forward speed.

It is very important to follow the label

directions when using any chemical

cleaner or polish. Read all warning

and caution statements that appear

on the label.

NOTICE

• Do not use strong soap, chemi-

cal detergents or hot water, and

do not wash the vehicle in direct

sunlight or when the body of the

vehicle is warm.

• Be careful when washing the

side windows of your vehicle.

Insects, tar, tree sap, bird droppings,

industrial pollution and similar

deposits can damage your vehicle’s

finish if not removed immediately.

7

Especially, with high-pressure

water, water may leak through

the windows and wet the interi-

or.

• To prevent damage to the plastic

parts, do not clean with chemi-

cal solvents or strong deter-

gents.

Even prompt washing with plain

water may not completely remove all

these deposits. A mild soap, safe for

use on painted surfaces, should be

used.

After washing, rinse the vehicle thor-

oughly with lukewarm or cold water.

Do not allow soap to dry on the fin-

ish.

7-75

Maintenance

High-pressure washing

NOTICE

• When using high-pressure wash-

ers, make sure to maintain suffi-

cient distance from the vehicle.

Insufficient clearance or excessive

pressure can lead to component

damage or water penetration.

• Do not spray the camera, sensors

or its surrounding area directly with

a high pressure washer. Shock

applied from high pressure water

may cause the device to not oper-

ate normally.

• Do not bring the nozzle tip close to

boots (rubber or plastic covers)or

connectors as they may be dam-

aged if they come into contact with

high pressure water.

• Do not use any high-pressure noz-

zles, which induce either one-direct

water stream or water swirling.

Matte paint finish vehicle

(if equipped)

Automatic car wash which uses

rotating brushes should not be

used as this can damage the sur-

face of your vehicle. A steam

cleaner which washes the vehicle

surface at high temperature may

result the oil to adhere and leave

stains that is difficult to remove.

Use a soft cloth (e.g. microfiber

towel or sponge) when washing

your vehicle and dry with a

microfiber towel. When you hand

wash your vehicle, you should not

use a cleaner that finishes with

wax. If the vehicle surface is too

dirty (sand, dirt, dust, contami-

nant, etc.), clean the surface with

water before washing the car.

OTL078049

NOTICE

• Water washing in the engine

Waxing

Repairing your vehicle’s finish

NOTICE

A good coat of wax provides a barri-

er between your paint and environ-

mental contamination.

Keeping a good coat of wax on your

vehicle will help protect it.

Deep scratches or stone chips in the

painted surface must be repaired

promptly. Exposed metal will quickly

rust and may develop into a major

repair expense.

• Wiping dust or dirt off the body

with a dry cloth will scratch the

finish.

• Do not use steel wool, abrasive

cleaners, or strong detergents

containing highly alkaline or

caustic agents on chrome-plat-

ed or anodized aluminum parts.

This may result in damage to the

protective coating and cause

discoloration or paint deteriora-

tion.

Wax the vehicle when water will no

longer bead on the paint.

NOTICE

Always wash and dry the vehicle

before waxing. Use a good quality

liquid or paste wax, and follow the

manufacturer's instructions. Wax all

metal trim to protect it and to main-

tain its luster.

If your vehicle is damaged and

requires any metal repair or

replacement, be sure the body

shop applies anti-corrosion mate-

rials to the parts repaired or

replaced.

Removing oil, tar, and similar materi-

als with a spot remover will usually

strip the wax from the finish. Be sure

to re-wax these areas even if the rest

of the vehicle does not yet need wax-

ing.

NOTICE

Matte paint finish vehicle

(if equipped)

Matte paint finish vehicle

(if equipped)

Do not use any polish protector

such as a detergent, an abrasive

and a polish. In case wax is

applied, remove the wax immedi-

ately using a silicon remover and

if any tar or tar contaminant is on

the surface use a tar remover to

clean. However, be careful not to

apply too much pressure on the

painted area.

In case of matte paint finish vehi-

cles, it is impossible to modify

only the damaged area and repair

of the whole part is necessary. If

the vehicle is damaged and paint-

ing is required, we recommend

that you have your vehicle main-

tained and repaired by an author-

ized HYUNDAI dealer. Take

extreme care, as it is difficult to

restore the quality after the repair.

7

7-77

Maintenance

Thoroughly flush the vehicle under-

body and wheel openings with luke-

warm or cold water once a month,

after off-road driving and at the end

of each winter. Pay special attention

to these areas because it is difficult

to see all the mud and dirt. It will do

more harm than good to wet down

the road grime without removing it.

The lower edges of doors, rocker

panels, and frame members have

drain holes that should not be

allowed to clog with dirt; trapped

water in these areas can cause rust-

ing.

Bright-metal maintenance

Aluminum wheel maintenance

The aluminum wheels are coated

with a clear protective finish.

• To remove road tar and insects,

use a tar remover, not a scraper or

other sharp object.

• To protect the surfaces of bright-

metal parts from corrosion, apply a

coating of wax or chrome preser-

vative and rub to a high luster.

• During winter weather or in coastal

areas, cover the bright metal parts

with a heavier coating of wax or

preservative. If necessary, coat the

parts with non-corrosive petroleum

jelly or other protective compound.

NOTICE

• Do not use abrasive cleaner, pol-

ishing compound, solvent, or

wire brushes on aluminum

wheels.

• Clean the wheel when it has

cooled.

• Use only a mild soap or neutral

detergent, and rinse thoroughly

with water. Also, clean the

wheels after driving on salted

roads.

Underbody maintenance

WARNING

Corrosive materials used for ice and

snow removal and dust control may

collect on the underbody. If these

materials are not removed, acceler-

ated rusting can occur on underbody

parts such as the fuel lines, frame,

floor pan and exhaust system, even

though they have been treated with

rust protection.

• Do not wash the wheels with

high-speed car wash brushes.

• Do not use any cleaners con-

taining acid or alkaline deter-

gents.

After washing the vehicle, test

the brakes while driving slowly

to see if they have been affected

by water. If braking performance

is impaired, dry the brakes by

applying them lightly while

maintaining a slow forward

pollution.

tact with the car surfaces by moisture

that is slow to evaporate.

Mud is particularly corrosive

because it is slow to dry and holds

moisture in contact with the vehicle.

Although the mud appears to be dry,

it can still retain the moisture and

promote corrosion.

High temperatures can also acceler-

ate corrosion of parts that are not

properly ventilated so the moisture

can be dispersed. For all these rea-

sons, it is particularly important to

keep your vehicle clean and free of

mud or accumulations of other mate-

rials. This applies not only to the vis-

ible surfaces but particularly to the

underside of the vehicle.

Common causes of corrosion

The most common causes of corro-

sion on your vehicle are:

• Road salt, dirt and moisture that is

allowed to accumulate underneath

the vehicle.

• Removal of paint or protective

coatings by stones, gravel, abra-

sion or minor scrapes and dents

which leave unprotected metal

exposed to corrosion.

7

7-79

Maintenance

To help prevent corrosion

• When cleaning lower door panels,

rocker panels and frame members,

be sure that drain holes are kept

open so that moisture can escape

and not be trapped inside to accel-

erate corrosion.

Interior Care

Interior general precautions

Keep your car clean

The best way to prevent corrosion is

to keep your vehicle clean and free

of corrosive materials. Attention to

the underside of the vehicle is partic-

ularly important.

Prevent caustic solutions such as

perfume and cosmetic oil, from con-

tacting the interior parts because

they may cause damage or discol-

oration. If they do contact the interior

parts, wipe them off immediately.

See the instructions for the proper

way to clean vinyl.

Keep your garage dry

Don't park your vehicle in a damp,

poorly ventilated garage. This cre-

ates a favorable environment for cor-

rosion. This is particularly true if you

wash your vehicle in the garage or

drive it into the garage when it is still

wet or covered with snow, ice or

mud. Even a heated garage can con-

tribute to corrosion unless it is well

ventilated so moisture is dispersed.

• If you live in a high-corrosion area

— where road salts are used, near

the ocean, areas with industrial

pollution, acid rain, etc.—, you

should take extra care to prevent

corrosion. In winter, hose off the

underside of your vehicle at least

once a month and be sure to clean

the underside thoroughly when

winter is over.

NOTICE

• Never allow water or other liq-

uids to come in contact with

electrical/electronic

compo-

nents inside the vehicle as this

may damage them.

• When cleaning leather products

(steering wheel, seats etc.), use

neutral detergents or low alco-

hol content solutions. If you use

high alcohol content solutions

or acid/alkaline detergents, the

color of the leather may fade or

the surface may get stripped off.

• When cleaning underneath the

vehicle, pay particular attention to

the components under the fenders

and other areas that are hidden

from view. Do a thorough job; just

dampening the accumulated mud

rather than washing it away will

accelerate corrosion rather than

prevent it. Water under high pres-

sure and steam are particularly

effective in removing accumulated

mud and corrosive materials.

Keep paint and trim in good condition

Scratches or chips in the finish

should be covered with "touch-up"

paint as soon as possible to reduce

the possibility of corrosion. If bare

metal is showing through, the atten-

tion of a qualified body and paint

shop is recommended.

Bird droppings are highly corrosive

and may damage painted surfaces in

just a few hours. Always remove bird

droppings as soon as possible.
