another country, be sure to:
o Observe all regulations regarding reg-
istration and insurance.
o Determine that acceptable fuel is avail-
able.B010E01A-AATGasolines for Cleaner AirTo help contribute to cleaner air, Hyundai

run cleaner and enhance performance of
the Emission Control System.
B020A01S-AATDuring the First 1,200 Miles (2,000
