The 2014 Hyundai Santa Fe comes with green phosphate-enhanced antifreeze with OAT technology specifically made for Asian vehicles. This antifreeze should be mixed with water to create a 50/50 ratio if it's not already diluted. You can locate the coolant reservoir under the hood in the engine bay. It's important to check the coolant levels when the car has cooled down. Never open the coolant cap when the engine is hot or has been recently running to avoid splashing and burns from hot coolant. A low antifreeze level may result in higher engine temperatures, warning lights, and front leaks of the vehicle. If there is a need to replace or repair the thermostat, water pump, or radiator hoses, the antifreeze levels could be affected.
The suggested coolant for the 2014 Hyundai Santa Fe is a type that includes phosphate organic acid technology known as green extended life for use in Asian vehicles.
