Maintenance
Information
• It is normal for engine oil to be consumed during driving. The engine oil level should
be checked on regular basis.
• The engine oil change interval for normal operating conditions is based on the use
of the recommended engine specification in chapter 2. If the recommended engine
oil specification is not used, then replace the engine oil according to the maintenance
schedule under severe operating conditions.
• The vehicle may be equipped with the Oil Life Management System that predicts
engine oil life based on the driver's driving history and alerts the driver to change
engine oil.
- If the deterioration of the engine oil increases depending on the driver's driving
style, the remaining oil life alert will appear on the instrument cluster before the
normal engine oil replacement interval. Have the engine oil and filter changed by
an authorized HYUNDAI dealer. Oil Life Management System works when the
recommended engine oil is used.
- If the recommended engine oil is not used, replace the engine oil according to the
maintenance schedule under severe usage conditions. Also, check the engine oil level
regularly as this system assumes that the engine oil is being filled normally.
- Always reset the remaining engine oil life whenever the engine oil is changed.
Otherwise, the indication of remaining Oil life in the Oil Life Management System
may not be accurate. To reset the Oil Change Reminder, select 'RESET' from
the instrument cluster or infotainment system screen. Then, select 'Yes' when the
message "Has the engine oil been changed? Press [Yes] to reset the oil life." appears
on the screen.
- If there is no alert until the maximum maintenance interval, have the vehicle
checked by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
