VEHICLE MAINTENANCE REQUIREMENTS

MAINTENANCE AND SERVICING
REQUIREMENTS
To ensure the continued reliability and safety of
the vehicle, certain routine maintenance opera-
tions are required at specific mileage or time
intervals.
It is the responsibility of the vehicle owner to
ensure that the maintenance schedules shown
in both this Owners Manual and the Warranty
and Service Passport are adhered to.
The new vehicle warranty may be invalidated if
the routine maintenance operations are not per-
formed in line with the recommendations outlined
and the safety and durability of the vehicle ad-
versely affected.
It is recommended that all maintenance opera-
tions with the exception of the daily operating
checks are entrusted to a Hyundai dealer to
ensure that the latest repair and maintenance
procedures and specialized servicing tools are
employed. In addition, the use of genuine Hyundai
replacement parts will ensure that the vehicle
safety and performance will not be compro-
mised.

NOTE:
The inspection and testing of certain elec-
tronic fuel injection/engine management and
automatic transmission control systems re-
quire specialised electronic equipment spe-
cifically designed for Hyundai vehicles. The
use of general purpose electrical test equip-
ment may result in damage to the control unit
microprocessors.

Specified Scheduled Procedures
The Specified scheduled procedures are listed
in the maintenance charts beginning at page 5-
2. The operations specified must be performed
at the time or mileage intervals shown irrespec-
tive of whether the mileage interval has been
reached before the specified time interval.
Certain lubricants and components degrade
with both time and mileage (e.g. engine oil and
brake fluid) and therefore it is not permissable
to base the maintenance schedule upon mile-
age alone. It is strongly recommended that the
maintenance operations are performed by the
factory-trained or distributor-trained technicians
at your Hyundai dealer because of the need for
specialized knowledge and tooling and to en-
sure that no possibility of invalidating the man-
ufacturers warranty exists.
The maintenance schedules relate to vehicles
operated under normal conditions, vehicles
which are operated under adverse conditions
will require more frequent maintenance which is
described at page 5-4.
SF030B1-E
SERVICE HISTORY
It is important that all scheduled maintenance
services are recorded in the warranty and ser-
vice passport to ensure that proof of mainte-
nance is available when warranty service is
required.
