Draining water from fuel filter
The fuel filter in the diesel engine
operates the critical function of sepa-
rating water from the fuels and accu-
mulating the water in its bottom.
When enough water is accumulated
inside the fuel filter, the warning light
( ) illuminates with the ignition
switch in the ON position.
In this case, we recommend you to
have the system checked by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
When the accumulated water is not
drained at a proper timing, water
may permeate in the fuel filter,
damaging the major vehicle com-
ponents, such as the fuel system.
Fuel filter cartridge replace-
ment
We recommend the fuel filter car-
tridge be replaced by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer according to the
Maintenance Schedule at the begin-
ning of this chapter.
Filter replacement
The air cleaner filter can be cleaned
for inspection using compressed air.
Do not attempt to wash or to rinse it,
as water will damage the filter.
If soiled, the air cleaner filter must be
replaced.
