FEATURES OF YOUR HYUNDAI 1- 3
ZB010C1-E "Alternative fuels" Fuels which contain methanol or etha- nol must not be used.
ZB010F2-A Fuels for Cleaner Air To help contribute to cleaner air, Hyundai recommends that you usefuels treated with detergent additives, which help to prevent deposit forma- tion in the engine. These fuels will helpthe engines run cleaner and increase the Emission Control System perfor- mance. YB020A1-E BEFORE ENTERING THE VEHICLE
o Ensure that all windows, mirrors and
lamps are clean.
o Check condition of all tyres.
o Ensure that no fluid leaks are evi- dent.
o Ensure that the area around the ve- hicle is clear before driving off.
ZB010D1-E Operation in Foreign Countries Drivers of vehicles which are to be operated in foreign countries must sat-isfy themselves that:
o The vehicle meets all local regula-
tions with respect to insurance, speci- fications etc..
o The correct types and grades of fuel are available for satisfactory opera-tion of the vehicle. YB020B1-E AFTER ENTERING THE VEHICLE
o Ensure that all occupants fasten and
correctly adjust seat belts.
o Ensure that seat and head restraint positions are adjusted for optimum safety, control and comfort.
o Adjust interior and exterior rear view mirrors.
o Verify correct operation of lamps,
horn and other electrical equipment.
o Ensure that warning lamps illumi- nate when ignition is turned on.
NOTE: Fluid levels such as engine oil, en- gine coolant, brake and windscreen washer fluid should be checked dailyor at each refuelling, whichever oc- curs sooner. B020A01FC-EAT RUNNING IN YOUR NEW HYUNDAI (Petrol Engine) The longevity and performance of the vehicle are greatly affected by the care exercised during the first 1,000 miles ofmotoring. Because of modern manu- facturing techniques, rigid guidelines regarding maximum road speeds havebecome unnecessary. However, cer- tain precautions should be observed in order to obtain the best possible perfor-mance 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 maxi-
mum engine speed should be re- stricted to 3,000 rpm and gradually increased thereafter.
3) Avoid prolonged constant speed op- eration. The internal components ofthe engine will become more quickly run in if the operation speed is variedduring the running-in period.
4) Never allow the engine to labour. Use
the gearbox freely and avoid largethrottle openings when the engine speed is below 1,500 rpm.

NOTE: SAE 5W-20 (5W-30), ILSAC GF-3 en- gine oil is preferred regardless of regional option and engine varia-tion. If SAE 5W-20, ILSAC GF-3 en- gine oil is not available, secondary recommended engine oil for corre-sponding temperature range can be used.
G030B01TB-EAT Recommended Oil
1. Petrol engine The engine oil quality should meet the following classification. API SJ, SL or ABOVE, ILSAC GF-3 or ABOVE The oil viscosity should be selected according to the operating environment of the engine by means of the table shown above. The engine oil recom-mendations are complete in themselves and the use of additives is neither required nor recommended. The use ofengine oil additives may result in invali- dation of the vehicle warranty.
G030A01FC-EAT ENGINE OIL The correct engine oil level is of para- mount importance. An excessively highor low oil level may result in irreparable damage being sustained by the engine. The engine oil level must be checkedon a daily basis, whenever the vehicle is refuelled or before starting a long trip, whichever occurs sooner.In addition, it is imperative that only an approved grade and specification of oil is used to avoid the possibility of seri-ous engine damage and premature wear. The use of "budget price" oil is a false economy that must be avoided if themaximum reliability and useful life is to be obtained from the vehicle.

SG100A3-E MANUAL TRANSAXLE LUBRICANT
CAUTION:
Engine coolant anti freeze must not be used in the windscreen washersystem since damage to the paintwork may result. Undiluted windscreen washer addi-tive must not be allowed to come into contact with the paintwork. If spillage occurs, flush the affectedarea immediately with water. Do not operate the windscreen washer for more than 15 seconds continuouslyor when the reservoir is empty since damage to the washer pump will result.

The manual transaxle lubricant must be checked and or changed at the inter- vals specified in the maintenance sched- ule. Only those lubricants specifiedshould be used in order to prevent gear shifting difficulties or transaxle dam- age. WARNING:
The transaxle lubricant level should only be checked when the engine is cold to preclude the possibility ofpersonal injury by contact with hot components. NOTE: It is recommended that the manual transaxle lubricant should be checked by Hyundai authorised re- pairer. Recommended Oil Use only the approved transaxle lubri- cant. The recommended lubricants arecomplete in themselves and the use of additives is neither required nor recom- mended. The use of additives mayinvalidate the vehicle warranty.
The level of windscreen washer fluid available should be checked on a daily basis. The level of fluid will be visiblethrough the side of the reservoir. When the fluid is to be replenished, only a proprietary screen wash additive shouldbe used and in the concentration rec- ommended by the manufacturer. The windscreen washer reservoir has a totalcapacity of 3 litres.
