EXPLANATION OF SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE ITEMS

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
sources, 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.

F060D01TB-AAT

o Fuel Lines, Fuel Hoses and

Connections

Check the fuel lines, fuel hoses and connec-
tions for leakage and damage. Replace any
damaged or leaking parts immediately.

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.

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. Fuel filters should be installed by
trained technicians.

F060G01A-AAT

o Vapor 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
vapor hose or fuel filler cap is correctly re-
placed.

F060H01A-AAT

o Air Cleaner Filter

A Genuine Hyundai air cleaner filter is recom-
mended when the filter is replaced.

F060J01A-AAT

o Spark Plugs

Make sure to install new spark plugs of the
correct heat range.

F060N02E-AAT

o Valve Clearance

Inspect excessive valve noise and/or engine
vibration and adjust if necessary. A qualified
technician should perform the operation.
