Introduction
Gasoline containing MMT
Some gasoline contains harmful man-
ganese-based fuel additives such as
MMT (Methylcyclopentadienyl
Manganese Tricarbonyl).
HYUNDAI does not recommend the
use of gasoline containing MMT.
This type of fuel can reduce vehicle
performance and affect your emis-sion control system. The malfunction indicator lamp on
the cluster may come on.
Do not use methanol
Fuels containing methanol (wood
alcohol) should not be used in your
vehicle. This type of fuel can reduce
vehicle performance and damagecomponents of the fuel system.
Fuel Additives
HYUNDAI recommends that you usegood quality gasolines treated with
detergent additives such as TOP TIER
Detergent Gasoline, which help pre-
vent deposit formation in the engine.These gasolines will help the engine
run cleaner and enhance performance
of the Emission Control System. For
more information on TOP TIER
Detergent Gasoline, please go to the
website (www
.toptiergas.com).
For customers who do not use TOP
Tier Detergent Gasoline regularly, and
have problems starting or the engine
does not run smoothly, additives that
you can buy separately may be added
to the gasoline. If TOP TIER Detergent
Gasoline is not available, one bottle of
additive added to the fuel tank at every
7,500 miles or every engine oil change
is recommended. Additives are avail-
able from your authorized HYUNDAI
dealer along with information on how
to use them. Do not mix other addi-
tives.
Your New Vehicle Limited
Warranty may not cover dam-
age to the fuel system and any
performance problems that are
caused by the use of fuels con-taining methanol.

Climate control air filter
The climate control air filter installed
behind the glove box filters the dust or other pollutants that come into the
vehicle from the outside through the heating and air conditioning system.
If dust or other pollutants accumulate
in the filter over a period of time, the
air flow from the air vents may
decrease, resulting in moisture accu-
mulation on the inside of the wind-
shield even when the outside (fresh)
air position is selected. If this hap-
pens, have the climate control air fil-
ter replaced by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
✽✽NOTICE
 Replace the filter according to the Maintenance Schedule.
If the car is being driven in severe
conditions such as dusty or rough
roads, more frequent climate con-
trol filter inspections and changes
are required.
 When the air flow rate suddenly decreases, the system should be
checked at an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.Checking the amount of air
conditioner refrigerant and compressor lubricant
When the amount of refrigerant is
low, the performance of the air con-
ditioning is reduced. Overfilling also
has a negative impact on the air con-ditioning system.
Therefore, if abnormal operation
occurs, have the system inspected
by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.

Because the refriger-
ant is at very high
pressure, the air con-ditioning system
should only be serv-
iced by trained and certified
technicians. It is important thatthe correct type and amount of
oil and refrigerant is used, oth-
erwise damage to the vehicle
and personal injury may occur.

✽✽NOTICE
 If you install an aftermarket HID headlamp, your vehicle's audio
and electronic device may mal-
function.
 Prevent chemicals such as per- fume, cosmetic oil, sun cream,
hand cleaner, and air freshener
from contacting the interior parts
because they may cause damage
or discoloration. Antenna
Roof antenna
Your vehicle uses a roof antenna to
receive both AM and FM broadcast
signals. This antenna is removable.
To remove the antenna, turn it coun-
terclockwise. To install the antenna,
turn it clockwise.

•Before entering a place with a
low height clearance or a car
wash, remove the antenna by
rotating it counterclockwise. If
not, the antenna may be dam-
aged.
When reinstalling your anten-
na, it is important that it is fullytightened and adjusted to theupright position to ensure
proper reception. But it could
be removed when parking the
vehicle or when loading cargo
on the roof rack.
When cargo is loaded on the
roof rack, do not place the
cargo near the antenna pole
to ensure proper reception.

Maintenance
FFUU SSEE SS
A vehicle’s electrical system is pro-
tected from electrical overload dam-
age by fuses.
This vehicle has 2 (or 3) fuse panels,
one located in the driver’s side panel
bolster, the other in the engine com-
partment near the battery.
If any of your vehicle’s lights, acces-
sories, or controls do not work, check
the appropriate circuit fuse. If a fuse
has blown, the element inside the
fuse will be melted or broken.
If the electrical system does not
work, first check the driver’s side
fuse panel. Before replacing a blown
fuse, disconnect the negative battery
cable. Always replace a blown fuse
with one of the same rating.
If the replacement fuse blows, this
indicates an electrical problem. Avoid
using the system involved and imme-
diately consult an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.✽✽
NOTICE
Three kinds of fuses are used: blade
type for lower amperage rating, car-
tridge type, and fusible link for
higher amperage ratings.
NEVER replace a fuse with any-
thing but another fuse of thesame rating.
A higher capacity fuse could
cause damage and possibly a
fire.
Do not install a wire or alu-
minum foil instead of the
proper fuse - even as a tem-
porary repair. It may cause
extensive wiring damage and
possibly a fire.
