OCM051001R
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.

BEFORE STARTING THE ENGINE
C020A01CM-DAT Before you start the engine, you should always:
1. Look around the vehicle to be sure
there are no flat tyres, puddles of oil, water or other indications of possible trouble.
2. After entering the car, check to be sure the hand brake is engaged.
3. Check that all windows, and lights are clean.
4. Check that the interior and exterior
mirrors are clean and in position.
5. Check your seat, seatback and head- rest to be sure they are in their properpositions.
6. Lock all the doors.
7. Fasten your seat belt and be sure
that all other occupants have fas- tened theirs.
8. Turn off all lights and accessories
that are not needed.
9. When you turn the ignition switch to "ON", check that all appropriate warn-ing lights are operating and that youhave sufficient fuel.
10. Check the operation of warning lights
and all bulbs when key is in the "ON"position.
C020A01HP-DAT
o In a collision crash, an unbelted
person is significantly more likelyto die than a person wearing aseatbelt.
RISK OF ROLLOVER
WARNING:
o Utility vehicle has a significantly higher collision rate than othertype of vehicles.
o Utility vehicle have higher ground clearance and a narrower trackto make them capable of perform-ing in a wide variety of off-road applications. Specific design characteristics give them a highercentre of gravity than ordinary cars. An advantage of the higher ground clearance is a better viewof the road allowing you to antici- pate problem. They are not de- signed for cornering at the samespeeds as conventional 2-wheel drive vehicles any more than low- slung sports cars are designed toperform satisfactorily under off- road conditions. If at all possible, avoid sharp turns or abrupt ma-neuvers. As with other vehicles of this type, failure to operate this vehicle correctly may result inloss of control or vehicle rollover.

C160H01A-DAT Use Approved Anti-Freeze in Window Washer System To keep the water in the window washer system from freezing, add an approvedanti-freeze solution in accordance with instructions on the container. Window washer anti-freeze is available fromHyundai dealers and most auto parts outlets. Do not use engine coolant or other types of anti-freeze as these maydamage the paint finish.
C160G01A-DAT To Keep Locks from Freezing To keep the locks from freezing, squirt an approved de-icer fluid or glycerineinto the key opening. If a lock is cov- ered with ice, squirt it with an approved de-icing fluid to remove the ice. If thelock is frozen internally, you may be able to thaw it out by using a heated key. Handle the heated key with care toavoid injury. NOTE: The proper temperature for using the immobiliser key is from -40°C to 80°C. If you heat the immobiliser key over 80°C to open a frozen lock, itmay cause damage to the transpon- der in its head.
C160E01A-AAT Change to "Winter Weight" Oil if Necessary In some climates it is recommended that a lower viscosity "winter weight" oilbe used during cold weather. See Sec- tion 9 for recommendations. If you aren't sure what weight oil you should use,consult your Hyundai dealer. C160F01A-AAT Check Spark Plugs and Ignition System Inspect your spark plugs as described in Section 6 and replace them if neces- sary. Also check all ignition wiring and components to be sure they are notcracked, worn or damaged in any way.

E040E01S-DAT Cleaning the Windows You may use any household window cleaner on the windows. However, when cleaning the inside of the rear windowbe careful not to damage the rear win- dow defroster wiring. When cleaning rear windows wipe along the defrosterbars rather than across.
E040D01A-AAT Cleaning the Seat Belts To clean the seat belts, use a cloth or sponge with mild soap or detergent andwarm water. Do not use strong deter- gents, dye, bleach or abrasive materi- als on the seat belts as this may weakenthe fabric. While cleaning the belts, inspect them for excessive wear, cuts, fraying orother signs of damage and replace them if necessary.
E040C01A-AAT Cleaning the Carpets Use a foam-type carpet cleaner. Clean- ers of this type are available in aerosol cans in liquid form or powder. Read theinstructions and follow them exactly. Using a vacuum cleaner with the appro- priate attachment, remove as much dirtfrom the carpets as possible. Apply the foam following the manufacturer's di- rections, then rub in overlapping circles.Do not add water. These cleaners work best when the carpet is kept as dry as possible.
During tanning operations, sufficientoils are incorporated through process-ing that none need be applied during the life of the leather. Oil applied to the finished surface will in no way help theleather and may do more harm than good. Varnishes and furniture polishes should never be used under any condi-tions.
E050A01A-AAT If you have any questions about the care of your car, consult your Hyundai dealer.

5VEHICLE MAINTENANCE REQUIREMENTS
4REGULAR SERVICING
F030A03A-DAT An odometer reading or time interval determines when service is necessary. For most people, the odometer reading will indicate when service is needed. If, however, you drive very little, your vehicle should be serviced at least every 12 months. Under severe driving conditions, more frequent maintenance is required.

POWER STEERING FLUID LEVELCHECKING ELECTRIC COOLING FANS
G220A01A-AAT
WARNING:
The cooling fan is controlled by engine coolant temperature and maysometimes operate even when the engine is not running. Use extreme caution when working near theblades of the cooling fan, so that you are not injured by a rotating fan blade. As the coolant temperaturedecreases the fan will automatically shut off. This is a normal condition.
G220B01A-AAT
Checking Engine Cooling Fan
The engine coolant fan should come
on automatically if the engine coolant temperature is high. G220C01A-AAT Checking Condenser Cooling Fan The condenser cooling fan should come on automatically whenever the air con- ditioning is in operation. G230A03A-GAT The power steering fluid level should
be checked regularly. To check the power steering fluid level, be sure theignition is "OFF", then check to make certain that the power steering fluid level is between the "MAX" and "MIN"level markings on the fluid reservoir.
OCM055027L NOTE: Grinding noise from the power steer-
ing pump may be heard immedi- ately after the engine is started in extremely cold conditions (below - 20°C). If the noise stops during warmup, there is no abnormal function in the system. It is due to a power steering fluid characteristic in ex-tremely cold conditions. Recommended Fluid
Use PSF-3 type fluidNOTE: Do not start the engine when the
power steering oil reservoir is empty.
