WARNING:
o Always double check to be sure that
the hood is firmly latched before driv-
ing away. If it is not latched, the hood
could fly open while the vehicle is
being driven, causing a total loss of
visibility, which might result in an
accident.
o The support rod must be inserted
completely into the hole provided in
the hood whenever you inspect the
engine compartment. This will pre-
vent the hood from falling and possi-
bly injuring you.
o Do not move the vehicle with the
hood in the raised position, as vision
is obstructed and the hood could fall
or be damaged.

WARNING:
If you must re-enter the vehicle,
you should once again eliminate
potentially dangerous static elec-
tricity discharge by touching a
metal part of the vehicle, away
from the fuel filler neck, nozzle or
other gasoline source.
- When using a portable fuel con-
tainer be sure to place the con-
tainer on the ground prior to refu-
eling. Static electricity discharge
from the container can ignite fuel
vapors causing a fire. Once refu-
eling has begun, contact with the
vehicle should be maintained until
the filling is complete. Use only
portable fuel containers designed
to carry and store gasoline.
- Do not use cellular phones around
a gas station or while refueling any
vehicle. Electric current and/or
electronic interference from cellu-
lar phones can potentially ignite
fuel vapors causing a fire. If you
must use your cellular phone use
it in a place away from the gas
station.
!
WARNING:
o Gasoline vapors are dangerous.
Before refueling, always stop the
engine and never smoke or allow
sparks and open flames near the
filler area.
o Never operate your vehicle without a
filler cap properly installed, flam-
mable vapors and gasoline could
leak out in dangerous situations such
as a collision or rollover. If the filler
cap must be replaced, only use genu-
ine Hyundai replacement parts.
o After refueling, make sure the fuel
cap is installed securely to prevent
fuel spillage in the event of an acci-
dent.
o Tighten the cap until it clicks, other-
wise the "
"light will illuminate.
o If you open the fuel filler cap during
high ambient temperatures, a slight
"pressure sound" may be heard.
This is normal and not a cause for
concern. Whenever you open the fuel
filler cap, turn it slowly.
o Do not "top off" after the nozzle au-
tomatically shuts off when refueling.
o Automotive fuels are flammable/ex-
plosive materials. When refueling,
please note the following guidelines
carefully. Failure to follow these
guidelines may result in severe per-
sonal injury, severe burns or death
by fire or explosion.
- Before refueling always note the
location of the Emergency Gaso-
line Shut-Off, if available, at the
gas station facility.
- Before touching the fuel nozzle or
fuel filler cap, you should eliminate
potentially dangerous static elec-
tricity discharge by touching an-
other metal part of the front of the
vehicle, a safe distance away from
the fuel filler neck, nozzle, or other
gas source.
- Do not get back into a vehicle once
you have begun refueling. Do not
touch, rub or slide against any item
or fabric (polyester, satin, nylon,
etc.) capable of producing static
electricity. Static electricity dis-
charge can ignite fuel vapors re-
sulting in explosion.

!
WARNING:
- When refueling always shut the
engine off. Sparks produced by
electrical components related to
the engine can ignite fuel vapors
causing a fire. Always insure that
the engine is OFF before and dur-
ing refueling. Once refueling is
complete, check to make sure the
fuel filler cap and door are se-
curely closed, before starting the
engine.
- Do not light any fire around a gas
station. DO NOT use matches or a
lighter and DO NOT SMOKE or
leave a lit cigarette in your vehicle
while at a gas station especially
during refueling. Automotive fuel
is highly flammable and can, when
ignited, result in explosion by
flames.
- If a fire breaks out during refueling,
leave the vicinity of the vehicle,
and immediately contact the man-
ager of the gas station or contact
the police and local fire depart-
ment. Follow any safety instruc-
tions they provide.

CRUISE CONTROL SYSTEME090000AMC(If Installed)The cruise control system allows you to
program the vehicle to maintain a con-
stant speed without resting your foot on
the accelerator pedal.

tem off (CRUISE indicator light OFF)
when the cruise control is not in use,

when traveling on open highways in
good weather.
o Do not use the cruise control when it
may not be safe to keep the car at a
constant speed, for instance, driving
in heavy or varying traffic, or on
slippery (rainy, icy or snow-covered)
or winding roads or over 6% up-hill
or down-hill roads.

using the cruise control system,
which may increase the vehicle
speed.

CAUTION:
During cruise-speed driving of a manual
transaxle vehicle, do not shift into neu-
tral without depressing the clutch pedal,
since the engine will be overrevved. If
this happens, depress the clutch pedal
or release the cruise control ON/OFF
switch.NOTE:During normal cruise control operation,
when the -/SET switch is activated or
reactivated after applying the brakes,
the cruise control will energize after ap-
proximately 3 seconds. This delay is
normal.
