B010A02O-EAT FUEL RECOMMENDATIONS Petrol Engines THIS VEHICLE MUST ONLY BE OP- ERATED WITH UNLEADED FUEL.SERIOUS DAMAGE WILL RESULTFROM THE USE OF LEADED FUEL. The use of leaded fuel in this vehicle willresult in irreversible pollution of thecatalyst element. Such pollution willprevent correct operation of the cata-lyst and give rise to increased operating temperatures leading to the catalyst element melting and restricting the ex-haust flow along with an increase inexhaust emission levels.
Unleaded fuel with a Research OctaneNumber (RON) of 91 or higher must beused in this vehicle.To prevent accidental filling of the fueltank with leaded fuel, a small diameterfiller neck along with a restrictor flap are fitted to ensure that only unleaded fuel pump nozzles may enter the filler neck.However, care must be exercised whenfilling the vehicle tank from jerry cans orby means of a funnel that the fuel beingused is unleaded.

!
CAUTION:
The vehicle warranty will not extend to damage arising from the use of incorrect fuels. Diesel Engines Diesel fuel of 52 to 54 cetane is used in Hyundai vehicle. If two types of diesel fuel are available, use summer or winter fuel properly according to the followingtemperature conditions.
o Above 23°F (-5°C) ... Summer type diesel fuel.
o Below 23°F (-5°C) ... Winter type
diesel fuel.
! Watch the fuel level in the tank very carefully : If the engine stops due to fuelfailure, the circuits must be completelypurged to permit restarting.
CAUTION:
Do not let any petrol or water enter the tank. This would make it neces- sary to drain it out and bleed thelines to avoid jamming the injectionpump and damaging the engine. Overseas Operation: When the vehicle is to be operated overseas, the vehicle operator shouldestablish that a suitable fuel for satis-factory operation of the vehicle is avail-able. SB010E1-A PETROLS FOR CLEANER AIR To help contribute to cleaner air, Hyundai recommends that you use fuels treated with detergent additives, which help to prevent deposit formation in the engine.These fuels will help the engines runcleaner and the Emission Control Sys-tem performance.

FEATURES OF YOUR HYUNDAI 1- 3
B020A01FC-EAT RUNNING IN (Petrol Engine) The longevity and performance of the vehicle are greatly affected by the careexercised during the first 1,000 miles ofmotoring. Because of modern manu-facturing techniques, rigid guidelines regarding maximum road speeds have become unnecessary. However, cer-tain precautions should be observed inorder to obtain the best possible perfor-mance and useful life from the vehicle.
1) Do not race the engine without a load
(i.e revving the engine in neutral).
2) During the first 500 miles the maxi- mum engine speed should be re- stricted to 3,000 rpm and graduallyincreased thereafter.
3) Avoid prolonged constant speed op-
eration. The internal components ofthe engine will become more quicklyrun in if the operation speed is variedduring the running in period.
4) Never allow the engine to labour. Use the gearbox freely and avoid largethrottle open-ings when the enginespeed is below 1,500 rpm.
5) Avoid rapid acceleration and maxi- mum throttle openings. 6) Avoid harsh braking during the first
100 miles of urban motoring or 1,000miles of motorway driving to allowthe friction facings of the brake padsand shoes to bed against the discs and drums properly.
7) Avoid trailer towing during the run- ning in period.

However, cer-tain precautions should be observed in order to obtain the best possible perfor- mance and useful life from the vehicle. 1) Do not race the engine without a load
(i.e revving the engine in neutral).
2) During the first 600 miles the maxi- mum engine speed should be re-stricted to 3,000 rpm and gradually increased thereafter. And while driv- ing, keep under three quarters ofmaximum vehicle speed.
3) Avoid prolonged constant speed op- eration. The internal components ofthe engine will become more quickly run in if the operation speed is varied during the running in period.
4) Never allow the engine to labour. Use
the gearbox freely and avoid largethrottle openings when the enginespeed is below 1,500 rpm.
