*7 : This maintenance schedule depends on fuel quality. It is applicable only when using a qualified fuel <"EN590 or equivalent">.

If the diesel fuel specifications don't meet the EN590, it must be replaced more frequently. HYUNDAI recommends "every

7,500km inspection, every 15,000km replacement". If there are some important safety matters like fuel flow restriction, surg-

ing, loss of power, hard starting problem etc., replace the fuel filter immediately regardless of maintenance schedule. We rec-

ommend that you consult an authorized HYUNDAI dealer for details.

*8 : When adding coolant, use only deionized water or soft water for your vehicle and never mix hard water in the coolant filled at

the factory. An improper coolant mixture can result in serious malfunction or engine damage. For your convenience, it can be

replaced prior to it's interval when you do maintenance of other items.
