OWNER MAINTENANCE

WARNING
Performing maintenance work on a
vehicle can be dangerous. If you lack
sufficient knowledge and experience
or the proper tools and equipment
to do the work, have it done by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer. ALWAYS
follow these precautions for performing
maintenance work:
• Park your vehicle on level ground.
Shift the vehicle to P (Park), apply the
parking brake, and place the ignition
switch in the OFF position.
• Block the tires (front and back) to
prevent the vehicle from moving.
Remove loose clothing or jewelry
that can become entangled in
moving parts.
• If you must run the engine during
maintenance, do so in an outdoor
area or in an area with plenty of
ventilation.
• Keep flames, sparks, or smoking
materials away from the battery and
fuel-related parts.
WARNING
Touching metal parts
Do not touch metal parts (including
strut bars) while the engine is operating
or hot. Doing so could result in serious
personal injury. Turn the engine off and
wait until the metal parts cool down
to perform maintenance work on the
vehicle.
The following lists are vehicle checks and
inspections that should be performed
by the owner or an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer at the frequencies indicated to
help ensure safe, dependable operation
of your vehicle.
Any adverse conditions should be
brought to the attention of your dealer as
soon as possible.
These Owner Maintenance vehicle
checks are generally not covered by
warranties and you may be charged for
labor, parts and lubricants used.
