B010A02CM-GAT Use Unleaded Gasoline For Europe
– For the optimal vehicle
performance, we recommend you to use unleaded gasoline with an octane rating of RON (Research Octane Num- ber) 95 /AKI (Anti Knock Index) 91 orhigher. You may use unleaded gasoline with an octane rating of RON 91~94/AKI 87~90but it may result in slight performance reduction of the vehicle. Except Europe – Unleaded gasoline
with a Pump Octane Rating of 87 (Re- search Octane Number 91) or highermust be used in Hyundai vehicle. If leaded gasoline is used, it will cause the catalytic converter to become inef- fective and the emission control sys- tem to malfunction.This can also result in increased main- tenance expense. To avoid accidental use of leaded fuel, the large nozzleused with leaded gasoline at service stations can not be inserted into fuel tank opening of Hyundai vehicle. NOTE:
o For some countries, Hyundai ve-
hicles are designed to use leaded gasoline. When you are going touse leaded gasoline, ask to Hyundai dealer whether leaded gasoline in your vehicle is avail-able or not.
o Octane rating of leaded gasoline
is same with unleaded one.
Use Diesel Diesel fuel Diesel engine must be operated only on commercially available diesel fuel thatcomplies with EN 590 or comparable standard. (EN stands for "European Norm"). Do not use marine diesel fuel,heating oils, or non-approved fuel addi- tives, as this will increase wear and cause damage to the engine and fuelsystem. The use of non-approved fuels and / or fuel additives will result in a limitation of your warranty rights.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. CAUTION:
Do not let any gasoline or water enterthe tank. This would make it neces- sary to drain it out and to bleed thelines to avoid jamming the injection pump and damaging the engine.
!
FUEL RECOMMENDATIONS
o Above -5°C (23°F) ... Summer typediesel 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.

3BEFORE DRIVING YOUR VEHICLE SAFETY CHECKS
!
B010A01P-GAT Be sure you know your vehicle and its equipment and how to use it safely. B010B01P-GAT Before entering the vehicle
o Check that windows, mirrors and
lights are clean.
o Check if any tire is low or flat.
o Look for fluid leaks.
o Check that area is clear if you're about to back up.
B010C03P-GAT After entering the vehicle
o Lock all doors.
o The driver and passengers are wear- ing properly adjusted seat belts.
o The head restraints are properly adjusted, if so equipped.
o Adjust inside and outside mirrors.
o Check warning lights for correct
operation, with the ignition key in the position "ON".
o Check all gauges, for normal opera- tion. WARNING: (Diesel only)
To ensure that sufficient vacuum exists within the brake system dur-ing cold weather start-up condi- tions, it is necessary to run the engine at idle after starting the en-gine. NOTE: Fluid levels, such as engine oil, engine coolant, brake fluid, and windshield washer fluid, should be checked daily and/or weekly, orwhenever you refuel. Further details are described in the "CONSUMER INFORMATION" sec-tion.
Biodiesel Commercially supplied biodiesel blends of no more than 5% biodiesel, com- monly known as "B5 biodiesel" may beused in your vehicle if it meets EN 14214 or equivalent specifications. (EN stands for "European Norm"). The useof biofuels made from rapeseed methyl ester (RME), fatty acid methyl ester (FAME), vegetable oil methyl ester(VME) etc. or mixing diesel with biodiesel will cause increased wear or damage to the engine and fuel system.Repair or replacement of worn or dam- aged components due to the use of non approved fuels will not be covered bythe manufactures warranty.
CAUTION:
o Never use any fuel, whether diesel or B5 biodiesel that fails to meetthe latest petroleum industry speci-fication.
o Never use any fuel additives or
treatments that are not recom-mended or approved by the ve- hicle manufacturer.
