Unleaded petrol with a Pump Octane Rating of 87 (Research Octane Num-ber 91) or higher must be used in your Hyundai. If leaded petrol is used, it will cause the catalytic converter to become ineffec- tive and the emission control system tomalfunction. This can also result in increased maintenance expense. To avoid accidental use of leaded fuel,the larger nozzle used with leaded petrol at service stations cannot be inserted into the fuel tank opening of your Hyundai.
B010A02CM-DAT Use Unleaded Petrol
FUEL RECOMMENDATIONS
UNLEADED FUEL ONLY
!
Use Diesel Diesel fuel Diesel engine must be operated only on commercially available diesel fuel that complies with EN 590 or comparablestandard. (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 fuel system. The use of non-approved fuelsand / or fuel additives will result in a limitation of your warranty rights. Diesel fuel of 52 to 54 cetane is thecorrect rating to use in your Hyundai. If two types of diesel fuel are available, use summer or winter fuel properlyaccording to the following temperature conditions.
o Above -5°C (23°F) ... Summer type
diesel 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. CAUTION:
o Do not let any petrol or water enter the tank. This would make it nec- essary to drain it out and to bleed the lines to avoid jamming theinjection pump and damaging the engine.
o In winter, in order to cut down
incidents due to freezing, paraffinoil may be added to the fuel if the temperature drops to below -10°C.Never use more than 20% paraffin oil.
Biodiesel Commercially supplied biodiesel blends of no more than 5% biodiesel, com- monly known as "B5 biodiesel" may be used in your vehicle if it meets EN14214 or equivalent specifications. (EN stands for "European Norm"). The use of biofuels made from rapeseed methylester (RME), fatty acid methyl ester (FAME), vegetable oil methyl ester (VME) etc. or mixing diesel withbiodiesel will cause increased wear or damage to the engine and fuel system.

Charging System Warn- ing Light
The charging system warning light should come on when the ignition isturned on, then go out when the engine is running. If the light stays on while the engine is running, there is a malfunctionin the electrical charging system. If the light comes on while you are driving, stop, turn off the engine and checkunder the bonnet. First, make certain the alternator drive belt is in place. If it is, check the tension of the belt.If the belt is satisfactory, have the system checked by your Hyundai dealer. B260L01A-AAT

Light
B260B01B-GAT Tail Gate Open Warning Light
This light remains on unless the tail gate is completely closed and latched.
! CAUTION:
If the drive belt (alternator belt) is loosen, broken, or mission while the vehicle is driving, there may be aserious malfunction, engine could overheat because this belt also drives the water pump. B260Z01CM-GAT
Door/Tail Gate Open Dis- play (If installed)
This light illuminates when door is not completely closed. And the door/tail gate open display willilluminate the corresponding position light which door is not completely closed. The indicator light does not illuminatewhen the all doors are completely closed.
The low fuel level warning light comes on when the fuel tank is approaching empty. When it comes on, you shouldadd fuel as soon as possible. Driving with the fuel level warning light on or with the fuel level below "E" can causethe engine to misfire and damage the catalytic converter.

3WHAT TO DO IN AN EMERGENCY
2
!
IF THE ENGINE WILL NOT START
1. If your car has an automatic transaxle, be sure the gear selector lever is in "N" or "P" and the emergency brake is set.
D010B01A-AAT If Engine Doesn't Turn Over or Turns Over Slowly
D010A01A-AAT
D010D01CM-AAT If Engine Stalls While Driving
1. Reduce your speed gradually, keep-
ing a straight line. Move cautiously off the road to a safe place.
2. Turn on your emergency flashers.
3. Try to start the engine again. If your
vehicle will not start, contact a Hyundai dealer or seek other quali- fied assistance.
If the engine stalls at a crossroad or crossing
o If the engine stalls at a crossroad or crossing, set the shift lever in the N(Neutral) position and then push the vehicle to a safe place.
o If your vehicle has a manual transaxle not equipped with the ignition lockswitch, the vehicle can move for- ward by shifting to the 2 (second) or3 (third) gear and then turning the starter without depressing the clutch pedal.
D010C02A-DAT If Engine Turns Over Normally but Does Not Start
1. Check fuel level.
2. With the key in the "OFF" position,
check all connectors at ignition coils and spark plugs(For Petrol Engine) or check all connectors at glow plug and glow plug relay(For Diesel En-gine). Reconnect any that may be disconnected or loose.
3. Check the fuel line in the engine
room.
4. If engine still refuses to start, call a
Hyundai dealer or seek other quali- fied assistance.
WARNING:
If the engine will not start, do notpush or pull the car to start it. Thiscould result in a collision or cause other damage. In addition, push or pull starting may cause the catalyticconverter to be overloaded and cre- ate a fire hazard.
OCM0550162. Check the battery connections to be
sure they are clean and tight.
3. Turn on the interior light. If the light dims or goes out when you operate the starter, the battery is discharged.
4. Check the starter connections to be sure they are securely tightened.
5. Do not push or pull the vehicle to start it. See instructions for "Jump Starting" on the following pages.

3EGR SYSTEMCATALYTIC CONVERTER
H020A01A-DAT ; For a Petrol Engine The catalytic converter is part of the exhaust emission control system. Its purpose is to remove certain engineemission products from the engine's exhaust. It looks something like a muffler and is located underneath thecar in the exhaust system.
H010D01A-AAT
3. Exhaust Emission Control
System
The exhaust emission control systemis a highly effective system which controls exhaust emission while main- taining good vehicle performance. H010E01Y-GAT This system helps reduce nitrogen
oxides by recirculating a part of the exhaust gas into the engine, therebyreducing cylinder combustion tempera- ture, which results in lower output of oxides of nitrogen.

o Avoid idling the engine for periodslonger than 3 minutes.
o Your Hyundai should not be either pushed or pulled to get it started. This can cause the catalytic con-verter to overload.
o Take care not to park, idle or drive your Hyundai over or near flam- mable objects, such as grass, pa- per, leaves or rags. These materialscould come in contact with the cata- lytic converter and could cause a fire.
o Do not touch the catalytic converter or any other part of the exhaustsystem while the engine is runningas it is very hot and could result in burns.
o Remember that your Hyundai dealer is your best source of assistance.
H020B01CM-DAT About the Catalytic Converter Exhaust gases passing through the catalytic converter cause it to operate at very high temperatures. As a result, the introduction of large amounts ofunburned petrol may cause it to over- heat and create a fire hazard. This can be avoided by observing the following:
o Use unleaded fuel only.
o Maintain your engine in good condi-
tion. Extremely high converter tem- peratures can result from improper operation of the electrical, ignitionor fuel injection systems.
o If your engine stalls, pings, knocks, or is hard to start, take your car to your Hyundai dealer as soon as possible and have the difficulty cor-rected.
o Avoid driving with a very low fuel
level. If you run out of petrol, itcould cause the engine to misfire and result in excessive loading of the catalytic converter. H020D01S-GAT
; For a Diesel Engine
Hyundai vehicles are equipped with
oxidation type catalytic converter to reduce the carbon monoxide, hydro- carbons and particulate contained inthe exhaust gas.
