VEHICLE MAINTENANCE REQUIREMENTS

SF020A1-E
MAINTENANCE AND SERVICING
REQUIREMENTS
To ensure the continued reliability and
safety of the vehicle, certain routine
maintenance operations 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 performed in line
with the recommendations outlined
and the safety and durability of the
vehicle adversely affected.
It is recommended that all mainte-
nance operations with the exception
of the daily operating checks are en-
trusted 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 cer-
tain electronic fuel injection/engine
management and automatic trans-
mission control systems require
specialised electronic equipment
specifically designed for Hyundai
vehicles. The use of general pur-
pose electrical test equipment may
result in damage to the control unit
microprocessors.
SF020C1-E
Specified Scheduled Procedures
The Specified scheduled procedures
are listed in the maintenance charts
beginning at page 5-3. The opera-
tions specified must be performed at
the time or mileage intervals shown
irrespective 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
2
performed by the factory-trained or
distributor-trained technicians at your
Hyundai dealer because of the need
for specialized knowledge and tooling
and to ensure that no possibility of
invalidating the manufacturers war-
ranty exists.
The maintenance schedules relate to
vehicles operated under normal con-
ditions, vehicles which are operated
under adverse conditions will require
more frequent maintenance which is
described at page 5-6.

SERVICE HISTORY
It is important that all scheduled main-
tenance services are recorded in the
warranty and service passport to en-
sure that proof of maintenance is avail-
able when warranty service is required.
