B010B01A-AAT What About Gasohol? Gasohol (a mixture of 90% unleaded gasoline and 10% ethanol or grain alcohol) may be used in your Hyundai. However, if your engine developsdriveability problems, the use of 100% unleaded gasoline is recommended. Fuels with unspecified quantities ofalcohol, or alcohols other than ethanol, should not be used. B010D01S-AAT Do not Use Methanol Fuels containing methanol (wood al- cohol) should not be used in yourHyundai. This type of fuel can reduce vehicle performance and damage com- ponents of the fuel system. B010E01A-AAT Gasolines for Cleaner Air To help contribute to cleaner air, Hyundai recommends that you use gasolines treated with detergent addi- tives, which help prevent deposit for-mation in the engine. These gasolines will help the engine run cleaner and enhance performance of the EmissionControl System.
B010A02A-GAT FUEL RECOMMENDATIONS Use Unleaded Gasoline Unleaded gasoline with a Pump Oc- tane Rating of 87 (Research Octane Number 91) or higher must be used in Hyundai vehicle. If leaded gasoline isused, it will cause the catalytic con- verter to become ineffective and the emission control system to malfunc-tion. This can also result in increased main- tenance expense. To avoid accidentaluse of leaded fuel, the large nozzle used with leaded gasoline at service stations can not be inserted into fueltank opening of Hyundai vehicle.
NOTE:
o For some countries, Hyundai ve-
hicles are designed to use leaded gasoline. When you are going to use leaded gasoline, ask to Hyundai dealer whether leadedgasoline in your vehicle is avail- able or not.
o Octane Rating of leaded gaso- line is same with unleaded one.
B010A02L-1
! CAUTION:
Your Hyundai's New Vehicle Lim- ited Warranty may not cover dam- age to the fuel system and perfor-mance problems that are caused by the use of methanol or fuels con- taining methanol.

B020A01S-GAT BREAKING IN YOUR NEW HYUNDAI During the First 2,000 Km (1,200 Miles) No formal "break-in" procedure is re- quired with your new Hyundai. How- ever, you can contribute to the eco- nomical operation and durability of yourHyundai by observing the following recommendations during the first 2,000 km (1,200 miles). B030A01Y-AAT KEYS For greater convenience, your Hyundai has two master keys and a sub key. The master keys will open all locks on your vehicle. The sub key will onlyfunction in the ignition and the door locks. Leaving your sub key with a parkingattendant will ensure that your vehicle's trunk, trunk lid release, glove box com- partment and rear trunk access maynot be unlocked in your absence. NOTE: Before leaving your sub key with a parking attendant, make sure thatthe lock levers of the rear seat back
