WARNING

- Maintenance procedures

• Performing vehicle maintenance may be hazardous to your health.

Some types of work may result in serious injury. If the vehicle owner does not have the necessary knowledge and experience, or the appropriate tools and equipment, the work must be performed by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
• Working under the hood with the engine running can be dangerous. The risk increases if you are wearing jewelry or loose clothing. They can get caught in moving parts and cause injury. Therefore, if you must work under the hood with the engine running, be sure to remove all jewelry (especially rings, bracelets, watches and necklaces), as well as neckties, scarves and similar items of clothing, before approaching the running engine or cooling fans.
