B010A03O-EAT PETROL ENGINES THIS VEHICLE MUST ONLY BE OP- ERATED WITH UNLEADED FUEL.SERIOUS DAMAGE WILL RESULT FROM THE USE OF LEADED FUEL. Unleaded fuel with a Research Octane Number (RON) of 91 or higher must be used in this vehicle.To prevent accidental charging of the fuel tank with leaded fuel, a small diameter filler neck along with arestrictor flap are fitted to ensure that only unleaded fuel pump nozzles may enter the filler neck. However, care must be exercised whenrefuelling the vehicle tank from jerrycans or by means of a funnel that the fuel being used is unleaded. The use of leaded fuel in this vehicle willresult in irreversible pollution of the catalyst element. Such pollution will prevent correct operation of the cata-lyst and give rise to increased operat- ing temperatures leading to the cata- lyst element melting and restricting theexhaust flow along with an increase in exhaust emission levels.

FUEL RECOMMENDATIONS
!
CAUTION:
The vehicle warranty will not extend to damage arising from the use ofincorrect fuels. DIESEL ENGINES 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 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 throughfuel failure, the circuits must be com- pletely purged to permit restarting.
CAUTION:
Do not let any petrol or water enter the tank. This would make it neces-sary to drain it out and to bleed the lines to avoid siezing the injection pump and damaging the engine.

3RUNNING IN
B020A02FC-EAT Petrol Engine The longevity and performance of the vehicle are greatly affected by the careexercised during the first 1,000 miles of motoring. Because of modern manu- facturing techniques, rigid guidelinesregarding maximum road speeds have become unnecessary. However, cer- tain precautions should be observed inorder 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 willbecome run in more quickly if the operation speed is varied during therunning-in period.
4) Never allow the engine to labour. Use
the gearbox freely and avoid largethrottle open-ings when the engine speed is below 1,500 rpm. 5) Avoid rapid acceleration and maxi-
mum throttle openings.
6) Avoid harsh braking during the first 100 miles of urban motoring or 1,000 miles of motorway driving to allowthe friction facings of the brake pads and shoes to bed against the discs and drums properly.
7) No trailer towing should be under- taken during the running in period.
ZB010C1-E "Alternative fuels" Fuels which contain methanol or etha- nol must not be used. 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.
ZB010F2-A Fuels for Cleaner Air To help contribute to cleaner air, Hyundai recommends that you use fuels treatedwith detergent additives, which help to prevent deposit formation in the engine. These fuels will help the engines runcleaner and the Emission Control Sys- tem performance.

B020B02FC-EAT Diesel 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 600 miles the maxi- mum engine speed should be re- stricted to 3,000 rpm and graduallyincreased thereafter. And whilst driv- ing, keep under three quarters of maximum vehicle speed.
3) Avoid prolonged constant speed op- eration. The internal components ofthe engine will become run in morequickly if the operation speed is var- ied during the running in period.
4) Never allow the engine to labour. Use the gearbox freely and avoid largethrottle open-ings when the engine speed is below 1,500 rpm. 5) Avoid rapid acceleration and maxi-
mum throttle openings.
6) Avoid harsh braking during the first 100 miles of urban motoring or 1,000miles of motorway driving to allowthe friction facings of the brake pads and shoes to bed against the discs and drums properly.

6SB035A1-FE The immobiliser system is an anti-theft device, designed to prevent and deterautomobile theft. All of the locks fitted to the vehicle are operated 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 keydoes not become locked inside the vehicle by mistake. NOTE: If you make your own duplicate key, you will not be able to cancel the system or start the engine. AX10020A
