2FUEL RECOMMENDATIONS
B010A02MC-GAT Use Unleaded Gasoline If leaded gasoline is used, it will cause the catalytic converter to become inef-fective and the emission control sys- tem to malfunction. This can also result in increased maintenance expense. Toavoid accidental use of leaded fuel, the large nozzle used with leaded gasoline at service stations can not be insertedinto fuel tank opening of Hyundai ve- hicle. NOTE:
o For some countries, Hyundai ve-
hicles are designed to use leaded gasoline. When you are going touse leaded gasoline, ask to Hyundai dealer whether leaded gasoline in your vehicle is avail-able or not.
o Octane Rating of leaded gasoline
is same with unleaded one.
For Europe
– For the optimal vehicle
performance, we recommend you to use unleaded gasoline with an octane rating of RON (Research Octane Num-ber) 95 /AKI (Anti Knock Index) 91 or higher. You may use unleaded gasoline with anoctane rating of RON 91~94/AKI 87~90 but it may result in slight performance reduction of the vehicle. Except Europe – Unleaded gasoline
with a Pump Octane Rating of 87 (Re- search Octane Number 91) or higher must be used in Hyundai vehicle. B010A01MC
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, heatingoils, or non-approved fuel additives, as this will increase wear and cause dam- age to the engine and fuel system. Theuse of non-approved fuels and / or fuel additives will result in a limitation of your warranty rights.Diesel fuel of above cetane 52 is used in Hyundai vehicle. If two types of diesel fuel are available, use summer orwinter fuel properly according 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 gasoline or water enter the tank. This would make it necessary to drain it out and to bleed the lines to avoid jamming the injection pump and damagingthe 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% paraffinoil.
! 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 EN 14214 or equivalent specifications. (ENstands for "European Norm"). The use of biofuels made from rapeseed methyl ester (RME), fatty acid methyl ester(FAME), vegetable oil methyl ester (VME) etc. or mixing diesel with biodiesel will cause increased wear ordamage to the engine and fuel system. Repair or replacement of worn or dam- aged components due to the use of nonapproved fuels will not be covered by the manufactures warranty. A020202AUN Biodiesel (for New Zealand) 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 EN 14214 or equivalent specifications. (ENstands for "European Norm"). The use of biofuels exceeding 5%, made from rapeseed methyl ester (RME), vegetableoil methyl ester (VME) etc. or mixing diesel exceeding 5% with biodiesel will cause increased wear or damage to theengine and fuel system. Repair or re- placement of worn or damaged compo- nents due to the use of non approvedfuels will not be covered by the manu- factures warranty.

!CAUTION:
If the oil pressure warning light stays on while the engine is running, seri- ous engine damage may result. Theoil pressure warning light comes on whenever there is insufficient oil pres- sure. In normal operation, it shouldcome on when the ignition switch is turned on, then go out when the en- gine is started. If the oil pressurewarning light stays on while the en- gine is running, there may be a seri- ous malfunction.If this happens, stop the car as soon
as it is safe to do so, turn off the
engine and check the oil level. If the oil level is low, fill the engine oil to the proper level and start the engine again. If the light stays on with theengine running, turn the engine off immediately. In any instance where the oil light stays on when the engineis running, the engine should be checked by an authorized Hyundai dealer before the car is driven again. WARNING:
If you suspect brake trouble, have your brakes checked by a Hyundai dealer as soon as possible. Drivingyour car with a problem in either the brake electrical system or brake hy- draulic system is dangerous, andcould result in a serious injury or death.

WARNING: ENGINE EXHAUST CAN BE DANGEROUS!
Engine exhaust fumes can be extremely dangerous. If, at any time, you smell exhaust fumes inside the vehicle, open the windows immediately. o Do not inhale exhaust fumes. Exhaust fumes contain carbon monoxide, a colorless, odorless gas that can cause unconsciousness and death by asphyxiation. o Be sure the exhaust system does not leak. The exhaust system should be checked whenever the vehicle is raised to change the oil or for any other purpose. If you hear a change in the sound of the exhaust or if you drive over something that strikes the underneath sideof the car, have the exhaust system checked as soon as possible by your Hyundai dealer. o Do not run the engine in an enclosed area. Letting the engine idle in your garage, even with the garage door open, is a hazardous practice. Never run the engine in your garage any longer than it takes to start the engine and back the car out. o Avoid idling the engine for prolonged periods with people inside the car. If it is necessary to idle the engine for a prolonged period with people inside the car, be sure to do so only in an open area with the air intake set at "Fresh" and fan operating at one of the higher speeds so fresh air is drawn into the interior. If you must drive with the trunk lid/tail gate open because you are carrying objects that make this necessary: 1. Close all windows. 2. Open side vents. 3. Set the air intake control at "Fresh", the air flow control at "Floor" or "Face" and the fan at one of the higher speeds.
To assure proper operation of the ventilation system, be sure the ventilation air intakes located just in front of the windshield are kept clear of snow, ice, leaves or other obstructions.
