B010A01O-GAT FUEL RECOMMENDATIONS Use Unleaded Gasoline Unleaded gasoline with a Pump Octane Rating of 87 (Research Octane Number 91) or higher must be used in Hyundai vehicle. If leaded gaso- line is used, it will cause the catalytic converter to become ineffective and the emission control system to malfunction. This can also result in increased maintenance expense. To avoid accidental use of leaded fuel, the large nozzle used with leaded gasoline at service stations can not be inserted into fuel tank opening of Hyundai vehicle. NOTE:
o For some countries, Hyundai vehicles are
designed to use leaded gasoline. Whenyou are going to use leaded gasoline, ask to Hyundai dealer whether leaded gaso- line in your vehicle is available or not.
o Octane rating of leaded gasoline is same
with unleaded one. 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 devel- ops drive ability problems, the use of 100% unleaded gasoline is recommended. Fuels with unspecified quantities of alcohol, or alcohols other than ethanol, should not be used. B010D01S-AAT Do not Use Methanol Fuels containing methanol (wood alcohol) should
not be used in your Hyundai. This type of fuel can reduce vehicle performance and damage com- ponents of the fuel system. CAUTION: Your Hyundai's New Vehicle Limited War- ranty may not cover damage to the fuel sys- tem and performance problems that are caused by the use of methanol or fuels con- taining methanol.
B010A01HP
B010E01A-AAT Gasolines for Cleaner AirTo help contribute to cleaner air, Hyundai recom- mends that you use gasolines treated with deter- gent additives, which help prevent deposit for- mation in the engine. These gasolines will help the engine run cleaner and enhance performance of the Emission Control System.
Use Diesel 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 following temperature conditions.
o Above -5°C (23°F) ... Summer type diesel
fuel.
o Below -5°C (23°F) ... Winter type diesel fuel. Watch the fuel level in the tank very carefully : If the engine stops through fuel failure, the circuits must be completely purged to permit restarting. CAUTION:
o Do not let any gasoline or water enter the
tank. This would make it necessary todrain it out and to bleed the lines to avoid jamming the injection pump and damag- ing the engine.
o In winter, in order to cut down incidents due to freezing, paraffin oil may be added to the fuel if the temperature drops to below -10°C. Never use more than 20% paraffin oil.

1- 2 B030A01A-AAT KEYS
B030B01HP
B030B01A-AAT Record Your Key Number
B030A01HP
A code number is stamped on the number plate that came with the keys to your Hyundai. This key number plate should not be left with the keys but kept in a safe place, not in the vehicle. The key number should also be recorded in a place where it can be found in an emergency. If you need additional keys, or if you should lose your keys, your authorized Hyundai dealer can make new keys if you can supply the key num- ber.
For greater convenience, the same key operates all the locks in your Hyundai. However, because the doors can be locked without a key, carrying a spare key is recommended in case you acci- dentally lock one key inside the car.
B010F01A-AAT Operation in Foreign Countries If you are going to drive your Hyundai in another country, be sure to:
o Observe all regulations regarding registra-
tion and insurance.
o Determine that acceptable fuel is available. B020A01S-GAT BREAKING IN YOUR NEW HYUNDAI During the First 2,000 Km (1,200 Miles) No formal "break-in" procedure is required with your new Hyundai. However, you can contribute to the economical operation and durability of your Hyundai by observing the following recommen- dations during the first 2,000 km (1,200 miles).
o Don't drive faster than 88 km/h (55 mph).
o While driving, keep your engine speed (rpm, or revolutions per minute) between 2,000 rpmand 4,000 rpm.
o Use moderate acceleration. Don't start, de-
press the accelerator pedal fully.
o For the first 300 km (200 miles), try to avoid
hard stops.
o Don't lug the engine (in other words, don't
drive so slowly in too high a gear that the engine "bucks":shift to a lower gear).
o Whether going fast or slow, vary your speed from time to time.
o Don't let the engine idle longer than 3 minutes for a catalytic converter equipped engine.
o Don't tow a trailer during the first 2,000 km (1,200 miles) of operation.

EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEMS 7-1
7. EMISSION
CONTROL SYSTEMS
H010A01A-GAT EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEMS (If installed) Your Hyundai is equipped with an emission control system to meet all requirements of the Emission prohibition rules of your province. There are three emission control systems which are as follows. (1) Crankcase emission control system (For a Gasoline Engine)
(2) Evaporative emission control system (For a Gasoline Engine)
(3) Exhaust emission control system In order to assure the proper function of the emission control systems, it is recommended that you have your car inspected and main- tained by an authorized Hyundai dealer in ac- cordance with the maintenance schedule in this manual. H010C02Y-GAT 2. Evaporative Emission Control
System; For a Gasoline Engine
The Evaporative Emission Control System is
designed to prevent fuel vapors from escaping into the atmosphere. Canister While the engine is inoperative, fuel vapors
generated inside the fuel tank are absorbed and stored in the canister. When the engine is
running, the fuel vapors absorbed in the canis- ter are drawn into the induction system through the purge control solenoid valve. Purge Control Solenoid Valve The purge control solenoid valve is controlled
by the ECM; when the engine coolant tempera- ture is low, and during idling, it closes, so that evaporated fuel is not taken into the surge tank.
After engine warm-up, during ordinary driving, it opens so as to introduce evaporated fuel to the surge tank. H020A01A-AAT CATALYTIC CONVERTER ; For a Gasoline Engine
H020A01HP
Catalytic Converter
All Hyundai vehicles are equipped with a mono- lith type three-way catalytic converter to re- duce the carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons and nitrogen oxides contained in the exhaust gas. Exhaust gases passing through the catalytic converter may cause it to operate at a very high temperature. The introduction of large amounts of unburned gasoline into the exhaust may cause the catalytic converter to overheat and create a fire hazard. This risk may be reduced by observing the following:
H010B01A-AAT
1. Crankcase Emission Control System
; For a Gasoline Engine
The Positive Crankcase Ventilation System is employed to prevent air pollution caused by blow-by gases being emitted from the crank- case. This system supplies fresh filtered air to the crankcase through the air intake hose. Inside the crankcase, which the fresh air mixes with blow-by gases, which then pass through the PCV valve into the induction system.7

3. Exhaust Emission Control SystemThe Exhaust Emission Control System is a highly effective system which controls exhaust emissions while maintaining good vehicle performace.

7-2EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEMS
WARNING:
o Use unleaded fuel only.
o Maintain the engine in good operating condition. Extremely high catalytic con-verter temperatures can result from im- proper operation of the electrical, igni- tion or multiport electronic fuel injection.
o If your engine stalls, pings, knocks, or is hard to start, have your Hyundai dealerinspect and repair the problem as soon as possible.
o Avoid driving with a very low fuel level. Running out of gasoline may cause theengine to misfire and result in damage to the catalytic converter.
o Avoid idling the engine for periods long- er than 10 minutes.
o The vehicle should not be pushed or pulled to get started. This may cause the catalytic converter to overheat and cre- ate a fire hazard.
o Do not touch the catalytic converter or any other part of the exhaust systemwhile the catalytic converter is hot. Shut off the engine, wait for at least one hour before touching the catalytic converter or any other part of the exhaust system.
o Remember that your Hyundai dealer is your best source of assistance.
o Do not stop your Hyundai over any com- bustible material such as grass, paper,leaves or rags. These materials might contact the hot catalytic converter and a fire might result. H020C01HP-GAT EGR SYSTEM ; For a Diesel Engine (If installed) This system helps control oxides of nitrogen by recirculating a part of the exhaust gas into the engine, there by reducing cylinder combustion temperature.This system can be reduced Nox of Emission used by EGR.
H020D01S-GAT CATALYTIC CONVERTER ; For a Diesel Engine (If installed) All Hyundai vehicles are equipped with oxida- tion type catalytic converter to reduce the car- bon monoxide, hydrocarbons and particulate contained in the exhaust gas.

B260J01S-EAT Charging System Warning Light
The charging system warning light should come
on when the ignition is turned on, then go out when the engine is running. If the light stays onwhilst the engine is running, there is a malfunc-tion in the electrical charging system. If the lightcomes on whilst you are driving, stop, turn offthe engine and check under the bonnet. First,make certain the generator drive belt is inplace. If it is, check the tension of the belt. And then, have the system checked by your
Hyundai dealer.
CAUTION: If the drive belt (generator belt) is loose,
broken, or missing whilst the vehicle is driv- ing, there may be a serious malfunction,engine could overheat because this belt alsodrives the water pump.
B260Q01HP-EAT
Cruise Indicator Light (Not all models)
The cruise indicator light in the instrument clus- ter is illuminated only when the vehicle cruisingspeed has been set using the control switch onthe steering wheel. The indicator light does not illuminate when the main cruise control switch is activated.Information on the use of cruise control may befound on page 1-60.
The brake fluid level warning light indicates that
the brake fluid level in the brake master cylinderis low and hydraulic brake fluid conforming toDOT 3 or DOT 4 specifications should beadded. After adding fluid, if no other trouble isfound, the car should be immediately and care-fully driven to a Hyundai dealer for inspection.If further trouble is experienced, the vehicleshould not be driven at all but taken to a dealerby a professional towing service or some othersafe method.
Your Hyundai is equipped with dual-diagonal
braking systems. This means you still havebraking on two wheels even if one of the dualsystems should fail. With only one of the dualsystems working, more than normal pedal traveland greater pedal pressure are required to stopthe car. Also, the car will not stop in as short adistance with only half of the brake systemworking. If the brakes fail whilst you are driving,shift to a lower gear for additional engine brak-ing and stop the car as soon as it is safe to doso.

; For a Petrol Engine The catalytic converter is part of the exhaust emission control system. Its purpose is to re-move certain engine emission products fromthe engine's exhaust. It looks something like amuffler and is located underneath the car in theexhaust system. YH040B1-E
About the Catalytic Converter ; For a Petrol Engine
Exhaust gases passing through the catalytic converter cause it to operate at very high tem-peratures. As a result, the introduction of largeamounts of unburned petrol may cause it tooverheat and create a fire hazard. This can beavoided by observing the following:
o Use only unleaded fuel.
o Maintain your engine in good condition. Ex- tremely high converter temperatures can re- sult from improper operation of the electri-cal, ignition or M.P.I. system.
o If your engine stalls, pings, knocks, or is hard to start, take your car to your Hyundaidealer as soon as possible and have thedifficulty corrected.
o Avoid driving with a very low fuel level.
