2004 Hyundai Terracan Owners Manual

OWNER MAINTENANCE
To replace the oil and filter, proceed as follows:
Tightening torque:
Petrol Engine - 1.2 ~ 1.6  kgf.m
Diesel Engine - 2.3 ~ 2.5 kgf.m
SG050A1-E
ENGINE  COOLANT  CHECKING  AND
1.
Ensure that the engine is at normal operat-
ing  temperature  and park  the  vehicle  on
level ground with the parking brake securely
applied and the engine turned off.
Open the  bonnet and  remove the  oil filler
cap.
REPLACING
WARNING:
Do not  remove the  radiator cap  when the
engine is hot, since the system is pressur-
ized and  coolant may be  ejected from  the
radiator resulting in scalding.
7.  Pour  the specified  quantity of  the  recom-
mended oil into the engine and replace the
filler cap. Start the  engine and ensure that
no oil leaks  exist. Turn off  the engine and
after a couple minutes, recheck the oil level.
2.
3.
Prepare a suitable receptacle to collect the
displaced oil and remove the drain plug from
the sump.
WARNING:
SG050B1-E
Prolonged and repeated contact with used
engine oils may result in serious skin disor-
ders including dermatitis and cancer. Avoid
contact  with skin  as  far  as possible  and
always wash thoroughly after any  contact.
Keep used oils out of reach of children. It is
illegal to pollute drains, water courses and
soil. Use  only authorized waste  collection
facilities including  civic amenity sites and
garages for the disposal of used oil and oil
filters. If in doubt, contact the local authority
for disposal instructions.
Coolant recommendations
CAUTION:
Only ethylene glycol based coolant with a cor-
rosion inhibitor suited to aluminium alloy engine
components  should  be  used  in  the  cooling
system. No further additives or inhibitors should
be used. The coolant specific gravity should be
checked  as  prescribed  in  the   maintenance
schedule to ensure  adequate frost and corro-
sion protection. In addition, the engine coolant
must be replaced at the specified interval since
the corrosion inhibitor properties deteriorate with
time.
It is important to note that whilst an increase in
the  concentration of  anti freeze  gives  an in-
crease in the level of frost protection, a solution
which is in excess of 65% anti freeze will result
in reduced  frost  protection and  engine over-
heating. Therefore the recommended concen-
tration  of  50%  should  not  be exceeded  for
general use.
The oil being drained from the engine will be
hot.  Care should  be exercised  to  prevent
scalding.
4.
5.
When the  oil has  drained from  the sump,
replace the drain plug using a  new washer
ensuring that the plug is not over tightened.
Tightening torque is: 3.5 ~ 4.5 kgf.m
Remove  the oil  filter  by  rotating counter-
clockwise, using  a  proprietary oil  filter re-
moval  tool if  necessary. Note  that  the oil
filter will contain approximately 0.5  litres of
oil and this should be collected in a suitable
receptacle.
6.
Install a  new oil  filter having  smeared the
sealing ring with clean oil and rotating clock-
wise until  the  filter contacts  the mounting
and then a further one half turn. Do not over-
tighten.
The use  of methanol based  anti freeze  com-
pounds may result  in engine overheating and
will invalidate the vehicle warranty.
