VEHICLE MAINTENANCE REQUIREMENTS
5-5
F060A01A-AAT
EXPLANATION OF SCHEDULED MAIN-
TENANCE ITEMS
F060M01A-AAT
o Engine oil and filter
The 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-AAT
o 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.
F060C01A-AAT
o Fuel filter
A 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.
F060D01A-AAT
o Fuel lines, fuel hoses and connec-
tions
Check the fuel lines, fuel hoses and connec-
tions for leakage and damage. Replace any
damaged or leaking parts immediately.
F060E01A-AAT
o Timing belt
Inspect all parts related to the timing belt for
damage and deformation. Replace any dam-
aged parts immediately.
F060G01A-AAT
o Vapour hose and fuel filler cap
The vapor 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 re-
placed.
F060F01A-AAT
o Vacuum, crankcase
ventilation hoses
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 sourc-
es, 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.
F060H01A-AAT
o Air cleaner filter
A Genuine Hyundai air cleaner filter is recom-
mended when filter is replaced.
F060J01A-AAT
o Spark plugs
Make sure to install new spark plugs of the
correct heat range.
F060N01X-GAT
o Valve clearances
Incorrect valve clearance will not only result in
unsteady engine operation, but will also cause
excessive noise and reduced engine perfor-
mance. Inspect valve clearance and adjust as
required while the engine is hot.
Valve-to-rocker arm clearance
Intake valves ..... 0.008 in. (0.2 mm)
Exhaust valves .... 0.010 in. (0.25 mm)
