1- 2 FEATURES OF YOUR HYUNDAI
B010A03O-EAT FUEL RECOMMENDATIONS Petrol Engines THIS VEHICLE MUST ONLY BE OP- ERATED WITH UNLEADED FUEL. SERIOUS DAMAGE WILL RESULTFROM THE USE OF LEADED FUEL. The use of leaded fuel in this vehicle will result in irreversible pollution of the catalyst element. Such pollution willprevent correct operation of the cata- lyst and give rise to increased operating temperatures leading to the catalystelement melting and restricting the ex- haust flow along with an increase in exhaust emission levels.
Unleaded fuel with a Research Octane Number (RON) of 91 or higher must be used in this vehicle.To prevent accidental filling of the fuel tank with leaded fuel, a small diameter filler neck along with a restrictor flap arefitted to ensure that only unleaded fuel pump nozzles may enter the filler neck. However, care must be exercised whenfilling the vehicle tank from jerry cans or by means of a funnel that the fuel being used is unleaded. HTB187

CAUTION:
The vehicle warranty will not extend to damage arising from the use of incorrect fuels. Diesel Engines Diesel fuel of 52 to 54 cetane is used in Hyundai vehicle. If two types of diesel fuel are available, use summer or winterfuel 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 due to fuel failure, the circuits must be completelypurged to permit restarting.
CAUTION:
Do not let any petrol or water enterthe tank. If this happens, the tankshould be completely drained and the fuel lines should all be cleaned out. This will stop the fuel pumpfrom becoming contaminated.
Overseas Operation: When the vehicle is to be operated overseas, the vehicle operator should establish that a suitable fuel for satis-factory operation of the vehicle is avail- able. SB010E1-E FUELS FOR CLEANER AIR To help contribute to cleaner air, Hyundai recommends that you use fuels treated with detergent additives, which help to prevent deposit formation in the engine.These fuels will help the engines run cleaner and the Emission Control Sys- tem performance.

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.
B010A01O-GAT FUEL RECOMMENDATIONS Use Unleaded Gasoline
NOTE:
o For some countries, Hyundai
vehicles are designed to use leaded gasoline. When you aregoing to use leaded gasoline, ask to Hyundai dealer whether leaded gasoline in your vehicleis available or not.
o Octane Rating of leaded gaso-
line is same with unleaded one.
Use Diesel Diesel fuel of 52 to 54 cetane is used in Hyundai vehicle. If two types of dieselfuel are available, use summer or win- ter fuel properly according to the fol- lowing 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 com- pletely purged to permit restarting.
Unleaded gasoline with a Pump Oc- tane Rating of 87 (Research Octane Number 91) or higher must be used inHyundai vehicle. If leaded gasoline is used, it will cause the catalytic con- verter to become ineffective and theemission control system to malfunc- tion. This can also result in increased maintenance expense. To avoid acci-dental use of leaded fuel, the large nozzle used with leaded gasoline at service stations can not be insertedinto fuel tank opening of Hyundai ve- hicle. HTB187
CAUTION:
o Do not let any gasoline or water enter the tank. This would make it necessary to drain it out and tobleed 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, paraf-fin oil may be added to the fuel ifthe temperature drops to below - 10°C. Never use more than 20% paraffin oil.
