Petrol containing alcohol andmethanol
Gasohol, a mixture of petrol and ethanol
(also known as grain alcohol), and petrolor gasohol containing methanol (also
known as wood alcohol) are being mar-
keted along with or instead of leaded orunleaded petrol. Do not use gasohol containing more than 10% ethanol, and do not use petrol or
gasohol containing any methanol. Either
of these fuels may cause drivability prob-lems and damage to the fuel system.
Discontinue using gasohol of any kind if
drivability problems occur.
Vehicle damage or driveability problems
may not be covered by the manufactur-
er’s warranty if they result from the useof:
1. Gasohol containing more than 10% ethanol.
2. Petrol or gasohol containing methanol.
3. Leaded fuel or leaded gasohol. A020104AEN-UK
Use of MTBE
HYUNDAI recommends that fuels con-
taining MTBE (Methyl Tertiary Butyl
Ether) over 15.0% vol. (Oxygen Content
2.7% weight) should not be used in your
vehicle.
Fuel containing MTBE over 15.0% vol.
(Oxygen Content 2.7% weight) may
reduce vehicle performance and produce
vapour lock or hard starting.
WARNING
Do not "top off" after the nozzle automatically shuts off when refuelling.
Always check that the fuel cap is installed securely to prevent fuel
spillage in the event of an acci-dent.
CAUTION
Never use gasohol which contains
methanol. Discontinue use of any
gasohol product which impairs dri- vability.
CAUTION
The New Vehicle Warranty does notcover damage to the fuel system or
any performance problems caused by the use of fuels containingmethanol or fuels containing MTBE(Methyl Tertiary Butyl Ether) over
15.0% vol. (Oxygen Content 2.7%weight).

D100100AUN Opening the fuel filler lid
The fuel filler lid must be opened from
inside the vehicle by pushing the fuel
filler lid opener button located on the dri-
ver’s door.
✽✽NOTICE
If the fuel filler lid will not open because
ice has formed around it, tap lightly or
push on the lid to break the ice and
release the lid. Do not pry on the lid. If
necessary, spray around the lid with an
approved de-icer fluid (do not use radi-
ator anti-freeze) or move the vehicle to awarm place and allow the ice to melt.
1. Stop the engine.
2. To open the fuel filler lid, push the fuel filler lid opener button.
3. Pull the fuel filler lid (1) out to fully open.
4. To remove the cap, turn the fuel tank cap (2) counterclockwise.
5. Refuel as needed. D100101ATQ

D100200AEN Closing the fuel filler lid
1. To install the cap, turn it clockwise until
it “clicks”. This indicates that the cap is securely tightened.
2. Close the fuel filler lid and push it light- ly and make sure that it is securelyclosed.
D100300AEN-UK(Continued)
Do not get back into a vehicle once you have begun refuelling
since you can generate static
electricity by touching, rubbing
or sliding against any item or fab-
ric (polyester, satin, nylon, etc.)
capable of producing static elec-
tricity. Static electricity discharge
can ignite fuel vapours resulting
in rapid burning. If you must re-
enter the vehicle, you should
once again eliminate potentially
dangerous static electricity dis-
charge by touching a metal part
of the vehicle, away from the fuel
filler neck, nozzle or other petrol
source.
When using an approved portable fuel container, be sure toplace the container on the
ground prior to refuelling. Static
electricity discharge from the
container can ignite fuel vapours
causing a fire. Once refuelling
has begun, contact with the vehi-
cle should be maintained until
the filling is complete.
(Continued)WARNING - Refuelling
dangers
Automotive fuels are flammable
materials. When refuelling, please
note the following guidelines care-
fully. Failure to follow these guide-
lines may result in severe personal
injury, severe burns or death by fire
or explosion.
Read and follow all warning at the fuel station facility.
Before refuelling note the loca- tion of the Emergency Fuel Shut-
Off, if available, at the fuel station
facility.
Before touching the fuel nozzle, you should eliminate potentially
dangerous static electricity dis-
charge by touching another metal
part of the vehicle, a safe dis-
tance away from the fuel filler
neck, nozzle, or other gas source.
(Continued)
WARNING - Refuelling
If pressurised fuel sprays out, it can cover your clothes or skin
and thus subject you to the risk
of fire and burns. Always remove
the fuel cap carefully and slowly.
If the cap is venting fuel or if you
hear a hissing sound, wait until
the condition stops before com-
pletely removing the cap.
Do not "top off" after the nozzle automatically shuts off whenrefuelling.
Always check that the fuel cap is installed securely to prevent fuel
spillage in the event of an acci-dent.

Emergency fuel filer lid release If the fuel filler lid does not open using
the remote fuel filler lid release, you can
open it manually. Unsnap and remove the
panel in the cargo area. Pull the handle
outward slightly.
CAUTION
Make sure to refuel with unleadedfuel only.
If the fuel filler cap requires replacement, use only a genuineHYUNDAI cap or the equivalent
specified for your vehicle. An incorrect fuel filler cap can resultin a serious malfunction of the fuel system or emission control
system.
Do not spill fuel on the exterior surfaces of the vehicle. Any typeof fuel spilled on painted surfaces
may damage the paint.
After refuelling, make sure the fuel cap is installed securely toprevent fuel spillage in the eventof an accident.
CAUTION
Do not pull the handle excessively, otherwise the luggage area trim or
release handle may be damaged.
OTQ047024G
(Continued)
Use only approved portable plas-
tic fuel containers designed to
carry and store fuel.
Do not use mobile phones whilst refuelling. Electric current and/or
electronic interference from
mobile phones can potentially
ignite fuel vapours causing a fire.
When refuelling, always shut the engine off. Sparks produced byelectrical components related tothe engine can ignite fuel
vapours causing a fire. Once
refuelling is complete, check tomake sure the filler cap and filler
door are securely closed, before
starting the engine.
DO NOT use matches or a lighter and DO NOT SMOKE or leave a lit
cigarette in your vehicle whilst at
a fuel station especially during
refuelling. Automotive fuel is
highly flammable and can, when
ignited, result in fire.
If a fire breaks out during refu- elling, leave the vicinity of the
vehicle, and immediately contact
the manager of the fuel stationand then contact the local fire
department. Follow any safety
instructions they provide.

nate when the fuel tank is near empty.
On inclines or curves, the fuel gauge
pointer may fluctuate or the low fuel
warning light may come on earlier than
usual due to the movement of fuel in thetank.

Vapour hose and fuel filler cap
The vapour hose and fuel filler cap
should be inspected at those intervals
specified in the maintenance schedule.
Make sure that a new vapour hose or fuelfiller cap is correctly replaced.
G050700AUN
Vacuum crankcase ventilation hoses (if equipped)
Inspect the surface of hoses for evidence
of heat and/or mechanical damage. Hard
and brittle rubber, cracking, tears, cuts,
abrasions, and excessive swelling indi-
cate deterioration. Particular attention
should be paid to examine those hose
surfaces nearest to high heat sources,
such as the exhaust manifold. Inspect the hose routing to assure that the hoses do not come in contact with
any heat source, sharp edges or movingcomponent which might cause heat dam-
age or mechanical wear. Inspect all hose
connections, such as clamps and cou-
plings, to make sure they are secure, and
that no leaks are present. Hoses should
be replaced immediately if there is any
evidence of deterioration or damage. G050800AEN
Air cleaner filter
A Genuine HYUNDAI air cleaner filter is recommended when the filter isreplaced.
G050900AUN-UK
Spark plugs (for petrol engine)
Make sure to install new spark plugs of
the correct heat range. G051000AEN-UK
Valve clearance (if equipped)
Inspect excessive valve noise and/or
engine vibration and adjust if necessary.
A HYUNDAI authorised repairer should
perform the operation.
G051100AUN Cooling system
Check cooling system components, such
as radiator, coolant reservoir, hoses and
connections for leakage and damage.
Replace any damaged parts.
G051200AUN Coolant The coolant should be changed at the
intervals specified in the maintenance
schedule.
G051300AUN
Manual transmission fluid (if equipped)
Inspect the manual transmission fluid
according to the maintenance schedule.

range of the dipstick, after the engine
and transmission are at normal operating
temperature. Check the automatic trans-
mission fluid level with the engine run-
ning and the transmission in neutral, with
the parking brake properly applied.
✽✽
NOTICE
If your vehicle is not equipped with the automatic transmission level gauge,have the automatic transmission fluidinspected by a HYUNDAI authorised
repairer according to the maintenanceschedule.
