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- 28 nated after blinking for approximately 6 seconds, or if it illuminates while the ve- hicle is being driven, please have an au- thorized Hyundai dealer inspect the pre- tensioner seat belts and SRS airbag sys- tem as soon as possible.
WARNING:
o Pre-tensioners are designed to operate only one time. After activation, pre-tensioner seat belts must be replaced. All seat belts, of any type, should always be replaced after they have been worn during a collision.
o The pre-tensioner seat belt assembly
mechanisms become hot during activa- tion. Do not touch the pre-tensioner seat belt assemblies for several minutes after they have been activated.
o Do not attempt to inspect or replace the pre-tensioner seat belts yourself. This must be done by an authorized Hyundai dealer.
o Do not strike the pre-tensioner seat belt assemblies.
o Do not attempt to service or repair the pre- tensioner seat belt system in any manner.
o Improper handling of the pre-tensioner seat belt assemblies, and failure to heed the warnings to not strike, modify, insp- ect, replace, service or repair the pre- tensioner seat belt assemblies may lead to improper operation or inadvertent acti- vation and serious injury.
The seat belt pre-tensioner system consistsmainly of the following components. Their locations are shown in the illustration.

WARNING: To obtain maximum benefit from a pre- tensioner seat belt:
1. The seat belt must be worn correctly.
2. The seat belt must be adjusted to the correct position. NOTE:
o Both the driver's and front passenger's
pre-tensioner seat belts will be activatedin certain frontal collisions. The pre- tensioner seat belts can be activated alone or, where the frontal collision is severe enough, together with the airbags.
o When the pre-tensioner seat belts are ac- tivated, a loud noise may be heard and fine dust, which may appear to be smoke, may be visible in the passenger compartment. These are normal operating conditions and are not hazardous.
o Although it is harmless, the fine dust may cause skin irritation and should not be breathed for prolonged periods. Wash your hands and face thoroughly after an acci- dent in which the pre-tensioner seat belts were activated.
CAUTION:
o Because the sensor that activates the SRS airbag is connected with pre-tensionerseat belt, the SRS airbag warning light on the instrument panel will blink for ap- proximately 6 seconds after the ignition key has been turned to the "ON" position, and then it should turn off.
o If pre-tensioner seat belt is not working
properly, this warning light will illuminate even if there is no malfunction of the SRS airbag. If the SRS airbag warning light does not illuminate when the ignition key is turned to "ON" or if it remains illumi-

The airbag modules are located both in the center of the steering wheel and in the front passenger's panel above the glove box. When the SRSCM detects a considerable impact to the front of the vehicle, it will automatically deploy the airbags.
B240B03L
o Do not tamper with or disconnect SRS
wiring, or other components of the SRS system. Doing so could result in injury, due to accidental firing of the airbags or by rendering the SRS inoperative.
o Do not install a child restraint system in the front passenger seat position. A child restraint system must never be placed in the front seat. The infant or child could be severely injured or killed by an airbag deployment in case of an accident. Do not allow children to ride in the front passen- ger seat. If older children (teenagers and older) must ride in the front seat, make sure they are always properly belted and that the seat is moved back as far as possible.
o For maximum safety protection in all types of crashes, all occupants including the driver should always wear their seat belts whether or not an airbag is also provided at their seating position to minimize the risk of severe injury or death in the event of a crash. Do not sit or lean unnecessarily close to the airbag while the vehicle is in motion. B240B02A-AAT SRS Components and Functions
B240B01L
The SRS consists of the following components:
- Driver's Airbag Module
- Passenger's Airbag Module
- Knee Bolster
- SRS Service Reminder Indicator (SRI)
- SRS Control Module (SRSCM)
The SRSCM continually monitors all elements while the ignition is "ON" to determine if a frontal or near-frontal impact is severe enough to re- quire airbag deployment. The SRS service reminder indicator (SRI) on the instrument panel will blink for about 6 seconds after the ignition key is turned to the "ON" position or after the engine is started, after which the SRI should go out.

may damage these parts. If the liquid from the air freshener does leak onto these areas, wash them with water immediately. WARNING:
o When the SRS is activated, there may be a
loud noise and fine dust will be releasedthrough the vehicle. These conditions are normal and are not hazardous. However, the fine dust generated during airbag de- ployment may cause skin irritation. Wash your hands and face thoroughly with luke- warm water and a mild soap after an acci- dent in which the airbags were deployed.
o The SRS can function only when the igni- tion key is in the "ON" position. If the SRS SRI does not come on, or continuously remains on after flashing for about 6 sec- onds when the ignition key is turned to the "ON" position, or after the engine is started, comes on while driving, the SRS
Passenger's Airbag
Upon deployment, tear seams molded directly into the pad covers will separate under pressure from the expansion of the airbags. Further open- ing of the covers then allows full inflation of the airbags. A fully inflated airbag in combination with a prop- erly worn seat belt slows the driver's or the passenger's forward motion, thus reducing the risk of head or chest injury. After complete inflation, the airbag immediately starts deflating, enabling the driver to maintain forward visibility.
B240B01HP
CAUTION: When installing a container of liquid air fresh- ener inside the vehicle, do not place it near the instrument cluster nor on the instrument panel surface. If there is any leakage from the air freshener onto these areas (Instrument cluster, instrument panel or air ventilator), it B240C01HP-GAT SRS CareThe SRS is virtually maintenance-free and so there are no parts you can safely service by yourself. The entire SRS system must be in- spected by an authorized Hyundai dealer in 10 years after the date that the vehicle was manu- factured.
