The engine oil and filter should be changed at
those intervals specified in the maintenance
schedule in Section 5. If the car is being driven
in severe conditions, more frequent oil and filter
changes are required.
If the oil level is close to or below the "LOW"
mark, add oil until it reaches the "FULL" mark.

The procedure for changing the oil and filter is
as follows:
5.
Remove the oil filter. You should be able to
unscrew the filter with your hands. (If your
hands are slippery, try to use a cloth be-
tween your hands and the filter to give
yourself a better grip.) A certain amount of oil
will come out when you remove the filter, so
be sure to have your drain pan in place
underneath it.
Replace the cap by turning it clockwise.
1. Park the car on level ground and set the
parking brake. Start the engine and let it
warm up until the needle on the coolant
temperature gauge moves above the lowest
mark. Turn the engine off and place the gear
selector lever in "P" (automatic) or reverse
gear (manual transaxle). Set the parking
brake.
The distance between the "FULL" and "LOW"
marks is equal to about 1 quart of oil.

Automotive readers have rated 2004 Hyundai Elantra Owners Manual 2.0 out of 3.0 based on 2 product reviews. I bought this used and the battery isn't completely dead but it won't start and my key won't work in the trunk to get to the spare tire, because I also have a flat.
good review
