Introduction
Use of MTBEHyundai recommends that fuels contain-
ing MTBE (Methyl Tertiary Butyl Ether)
over 15.0% vol. (Oxygen Content 2.7%
weight) should not be used in your
Hyundai.
Fuel containing MTBE over 15.0% vol.
(Oxygen Content 2.7% weight) may
reduce vehicle performance and produce
vapor lock or hard starting.Do Not Use MethanolFuels containing methanol (wood alco-
hol) should not be used in your Hyundai.
This type of fuel can reduce vehicle per-
formance and damage components of
the fuel system.
Gasolines for Cleaner AirTo help contribute to cleaner air, Hyundai
recommends that you use gasolines
treated with detergent additives, which
help prevent deposit formation in the
engine. These gasolines will help the
engine run cleaner and enhance per-
formance of the Emission Control
System.Operation in Foreign CountriesIf you are going to drive your Hyundai in
another country, be sure to:
Observe all regulations regarding reg-
istration and insurance.
Determine that acceptable fuel is avail-
able.
During the First 1,200 Miles (2,000
Km)No formal "break-in" procedure is
required with your new Hyundai.
However, you can contribute to the eco-
nomical operation and durability of your
Hyundai by observing the following rec-
ommendations during the first 1,200
miles (2,000 km).
Don't drive faster than 55 MPH (88
km/h).
While driving, keep your engine speed
(rpm, or revolutions per minute)
between 2,000 rpm and 4,000 rpm.
Use moderate acceleration. Don't start
quickly or depress the accelerator
pedal fully.
For the first 200 miles (300 km), try to
avoid hard stops.
Whether going fast or slow, vary your
speed from time to time.
Don't let the engine idle longer than 3
minutes at one time.
Don't tow a trailer during the first 1,200
miles (2,000 km) of operation.
CAUTION
Your Hyundai's New Vehicle Limited
Warranty may not cover damage to
the fuel system and any perform-
ance problems that are caused by
the use of fuels containing
methanol or fuels containing MTBE
(Methyl Tertiary Butyl Ether) over
15.0% vol. (Oxygen Content 2.7%
weight.)

WARNING
If your vehicle is facing downward
on a steep grade (15 percent or
more), the door may not stay open
and could slam shut, possibly injur-
ing someone. To make sure the
door does not slam shut, turn on
the power sliding door feature.
Then when the door closes, it will
close under the control of the
power door system.
WARNING
If children accidentally open the
sliding doors while the vehicle is in
motion, they could fall out and be
severely injured or killed. To prevent
children from opening the sliding
doors from the inside, the child
safety locks should be used when-
ever children are in the vehicle.
WARNING
When the rear passenger operates
the power sliding door, make sure
there are no people or objects
around the door, and have all occu-
pants get in or out of the vehicle
after the door is opened completely
and door motion has stopped.
WARNING
Rear passengers should get in or
out of the vehicle only after the
door is completely opened.
Sudden closing could cause a
serious injury.
Close the door by pulling the
door handle after the door is com-
pletely opened. Do not pull the
door handle while rear passen-
gers are getting in or out. The
door could suddenly close by
itself and cause a serious injury.
It takes about 5 seconds for the
power sliding door to close and
latch completely.
Sudden starting or accelerating
the vehicle before the door closes
and latches completely could
cause it to open the door and
result in a serious injury or dam-
age to cargo. Do not start the
vehicle before the door closes
and latches completely.
Features of your vehicle102 3Power steeringPower steering uses energy from the
engine to assist you in steering the vehi-
cle. If the engine is off or if the power
steering system becomes inoperative,
the vehicle may still be steered, but it will
require increased steering effort.
Should you notice any change in the
effort required to steer during normal
vehicle operation, have the power steer-
ing checked by an Authorized Hyundai
Dealer.
✽ ✽
NOTICEIf the vehicle is parked for extended
periods outside in cold weather (below
14°F/-10°C), the power steering may
require increased effort when the engine
is first started. This is caused by
increased fluid viscosity due to the cold
weather and does not indicate a mal-
function.
When this happens, increase the engine
RPM by depressing accelerator until the
RPM reaches 1,500 rpm then release or
let the engine idle for two or three min-
utes to warm up the fluid.
STEERING WHEEL
CAUTION
Never hold the steering wheel
against a stop (extreme right or
left turn) for more than 5 seconds
with the engine running. Holding
the steering wheel for more than
5 seconds in either position may
cause damage to the power steer-
ing pump.
If the power steering drive belt
breaks or if the power steering
pump malfunctions, the steering
effort will greatly increase.
