2FUEL RECOMMENDATIONS
UNLEADED
FUEL ONLY
B010A04A
!
B010A02A-AAT
Use Unleaded Gasoline
Unleaded gasoline with a Pump Octane
Rating of 87 (Research Octane Number 91)
or higher must be used in your Hyundai.
If leaded gasoline 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 ex-
pense.
To avoid accidental use of leaded fuel, the larger
nozzle used with leaded gasoline at service
stations cannot be inserted into the fuel tank
opening of your Hyundai.
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 driveability problems, the use of 100% un-
leaded gasoline is recommended. Fuels with
unspecified quantities of alcohol, or alcohols
other than ethanol, should not be used.
B010C01A-AAT
Use of MTBE
Hyundai recommends that fuels containing
MTBE (Methyl Tertiary Butyl Ether) over 15.0%
vol. (Oxygen Content 2.7% weight) should not
be used in your Hyundai.
Fuel containing MTBE over 15.0% vol. (Oxygen
Content 2.7% weight) may reduce vehicle per-
formance and produce vapor lock or hard start-
ing.
B010D01A-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
components of the fuel system.CAUTION:o Do not "TOP-OFF" after the first nozzle
shut off when refueling.
o The fuel cap must be tightened at least
3 clicks, otherwise " " light may ill-
uminate.
CAUTION:Your Hyundai's New Vehicle Limited Warran-
ty may not cover damage to the fuel system
and any performance problems that are caused
by the use of fuels containing methanol or
fuels containing MTBE (Methyl Tertiary Butyl
Ether) over 15.0% vol. (Oxygen Content 2.7%
weight.)

To fasten your seat belt, pull it out of the
retractor and insert the metal tab into the
buckle. There will be an audible "click" when
the tab locks into the buckle.
The seat belt automatically adjusts to the
proper length only after the lap belt is adjusted
manually so that it fits snugly around your hips.
If you lean forward in a slow, easy motion, the
belt will extend and let you move around. If
there is a sudden stop or impact, however, the
belt will lock into position. It will also lock if you
try to lean forward too quickly.
