Additional Notes
- The Hyundai Atos / Amica MX (EU) 1.0i cooling system holds 6 liters, while both 1.1i configurations hold 4.5 liters, a reduction of 1.5 liters between the earlier and later engine variants.
- The 1.0i (1997-2002) carries a single change interval of 45,000 km or 24 months under normal use conditions, with no separate check interval specified alongside it.
- Both 1.1i variants (2003-2005 and 2005-2008) share a structured two-step service schedule under normal use: a coolant check at 15,000 km or 12 months, followed by a full change at 24 months.
- The 24-month change interval appears across all three configurations, though the 1.0i pairs it with a 45,000 km distance trigger, whereas the 1.1i variants tie the change solely to the 24-month mark without a corresponding distance figure.
- A cooling system capacity of 4.5 liters, as seen in the 1.1i variants, is consistent with a small-displacement engine in a subcompact vehicle, where a compact cooling circuit requires a relatively modest fluid volume.
- The 6-liter capacity of the 1.0i cooling system is notably higher than the 4.5-liter figure of the 1.1i, which may reflect differences in the engine block design, radiator sizing, or ancillary cooling passages between the two engine generations.
