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.

B260H02A-GAT Parking Brake/Low Brake Fluid Level Warning Light
WARNING:
If you suspect brake trouble, have your brakes checked by a Hyundai dealer as soon as possible. Driving your car with a problem in either thebrake electrical system or brake hy- draulic system is dangerous, and could result in a serious injury or death.
Warning Light Operation The parking brake/low brake fluid level warning light should come on when theparking brake is applied and the ignition switch is turned to "ON" or "START". After the engine is started, the lightshould go out when the parking brake is released. If the parking brake is not applied, the warning light should comeon when the ignition switch is turned to "ON" or "START", then go out when the engine starts. If the light comes on atany other time, you should slow the vehicle and bring it to a complete stop in a safe location off the roadway. The brake fluid level warning light indi-cates that the brake fluid level in thebrake master cylinder is low and hy- draulic brake fluid conforming to DOT 3 or DOT 4 specifications should be added.After adding fluid, if no other trouble is found, the car should be immediately and carefully driven to a Hyundai dealerfor inspection. If further trouble is expe- rienced, the vehicle should not be driven at all but taken to a dealer by aprofessional towing service or some other safe method. Your Hyundai is equipped with dual-diagonal braking systems. This means you still have braking on two wheels even if one of the dual systems shouldfail. With only one of the dual systems working, more than normal pedal travel and greater pedal pressure are requiredto stop the car. Also, the car will not stop in as short a distance with only half of the brake system working. If thebrakes fail while you are driving, shift to a lower gear for additional engine brak- ing and stop the car as soon as it is safeto do so.

!WARNING:
o The following specification is the maximum weight that can be loaded onto the roof rack. Distrib-ute the load as evenly as possible across the crossbars (if installed) and roof rack and secure the loadfirmly. o The vehicle centre of gravity will
be higher when items are loadedonto the roof rack. Avoid sudden starts, braking, sharp turns, abrupt manoeuvres or high speeds thatmay result in loss of vehicle con- trol or rollover causing an acci- dent.
CAUTION:
o The crossbars (if installed) should be placed in the proper load carry-ing positions prior to placing itemsonto the roof rack.
o If the vehicle is equipped with a
sunroof, be sure not to positioncargo onto the roof rack in such a way that it could interfere with sunroof operation.
o When carrying cargo on the roof rack, take the necessary precau-tions to make sure the cargo doesnot damage the roof of the vehicle.
