from jerry cans or by means of a funnel that the fuel being used is unleaded.The use of leaded fuel in this vehicle will result in irreversible pollution of the catalyst ele- ment. Such pollution will prevent correct op- eration of the catalyst and give rise to in- creased operating temperatures leading to the catalyst element melting and restricting the exhaust flow along with an increase in exhaust emission levels. CAUTION: The vehicle warranty will not extend to damage arising from the use of incorrect fuels. Use Diesel Diesel fuel of 52 to 54 cetane is the correct rating to use 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 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 through fuel failure, thecircuits must be completely purged to permit restarting.

B010A02O-EAT FUEL RECOMMENDATIONSTHIS VEHICLE MUST ONLY BE OPERATED WITH UNLEADED FUEL.SERIOUS DAMAGE WILL RESULT FROM THE USE OF LEADED FUEL.
UNLEADED FUEL ONLY
Unleaded fuel with a Research Octane Num-ber (RON) of 91 or higher must be used in this vehicle. To prevent accidental charging of the fueltank with leaded fuel, a small diameter filler 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 when refuelling the vehicle tank SB010E1-A GASOLINES FOR CLEANER AIRTo help contribute to cleaner air, Hyundai recommends that you use gasolines treated with detergent additives, which help to pre- vent deposit formation in the engine. These gasolines will help the engines run cleaner and the Emission Control System performance.
CAUTION:Do not let any gasoline or water enter thetank. If this happens, the tank should be completely drained and the fuel lines should all be cleaned out. This will stop the fuel pump from becoming contami- nated. Overseas Operation: When the vehicle is to be operated overseas, the vehicle operator should establish that a suitable fuel for satisfactory operation of the vehicle is available.

B880B03A-GAT Keys All of the locks fitted to the vehicle are oper- ated by the same key. However, since it is possible to lock the doors without the use of the key, care should be exercised to ensure that the key does not become locked inside the vehicle by mistake. NOTE: If you make your own duplicate key, youwill not be able to cancel the system or start the engine.
B020A02FC-EAT RUNNING IN (Gasoline Engine)The longevity and performance of the vehicle are greatly affected by the care exercised during the first 1,000 miles of motoring. Be- cause of modern manufacturing techniques, rigid guidelines regarding maximum road speeds have become unnecessary. However, certain precautions should be observed in order to obtain the best possible performance 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 maximum engine speed should be restricted to 3,000 rpm and gradually increased thereafter.
3) Avoid prolonged constant speed operation. The internal components will become run in
more quickly if the operation speed is varied
during the running-in period.
4) Never allow the engine to labour. Use the gearbox freely and avoid large throttle open-ings when the engine speed is below 1,500 rpm.
5) Avoid rapid acceleration and maximum throttle openings.
6) Avoid harsh braking during the first 100 miles of urban motoring or 1,000 miles ofmotorway driving to allow the friction fac- ings of the brake pads and shoes to bed against the discs and drums properly.
7) No trailer towing should be undertaken during the running in period.

However, certain precautions should be observed in order to obtain the best possible performance 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 maximum engine speed should be restricted to 3,000 rpm and gradually increased thereafter. And while driving, keep under three quar- ters of maximum vehicle speed.
3) Avoid prolonged constant speed operation. The internal components of the engine will
become run in more quickly if the operation speed is varied during the running in period.
4) Never allow the engine to labour. Use the gearbox freely and avoid large throttle open-ings when the engine speed is below 1,500 rpm.
