When refueling, always shutthe engine off. Sparks pro-
duced by electrical compo-
nents related to the engine
can ignite fuel vapors causing
a fire. Once refueling is com-
plete, check to make sure the
filler cap and filler door are
securely closed, before start-
ing the engine.
DO NOT use matches or a lighter and DO NOT SMOKE or
leave a lit cigarette in your
vehicle while at a gas station
especially during refueling.
Automotive fuel is highly
flammable and can, when
ignited, result in fire.
If a fire breaks out during refu- eling, leave the vicinity of the
vehicle, and immediately con-
tact the manager of the gas
station and then contact the
local fire department or 911.
Follow any safety instructions
they provide.CAUTION
Make sure to refuel your vehi- cle according to the “Fuelrequirements” suggested insection 1.
If the fuel filler cap requires replacement, use only a gen-uine HYUNDAI cap or theequivalent specified for yourvehicle. An incorrect fuel fillercap can result in a seriousmalfunction of the fuel systemor emission control system.
Do not spill fuel on the exteri- or surfaces of the vehicle. Anytype of fuel spilled on paintedsurfaces may damage thepaint.
After refueling, make sure the fuel cap is installed securelyto prevent fuel spillage in theevent of an accident.
CAUTION
Do not pull the handle exces-sively, otherwise the luggagearea trim or release handle maybe damaged.

located on the overhead console.
The sunroof can only be opened,
closed, or tilted when the ignition
switch is in the ON position.
✽ ✽
NOTICE
• In cold and wet climates, the sun-
roof may not work properly due to
freezing conditions.
• After washing the car or after there is rain, be sure to wipe off
any water that is on the sunroof
before operating it.
✽ ✽ NOTICE
The sunroof cannot slide when it is
in the tilt position nor can it be tilted
while in an open or slide position.
Sunroof open warning

If the driver removes the ignition key
(smart key: turns off the engine) and
opens the driver-side door when the
sunroof is not fully closed, the warning
chime will sound for a few seconds

❈ For more detailed information,
contact an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer.Power steering
Power steering uses energy from the
engine to assist you in steering the
vehicle. If the engine is off or if the
power steering system becomes
inoperative, the vehicle may still be
steered, but it will require increased
steering effort.
Should you notice any change in the
effort required to steer during normal
vehicle operation, have the power
steering checked by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
✽ ✽
NOTICE
If the power steering drive belt
breaks or if the power steering
pump malfunctions, the steering
effort will greatly increase.
✽ ✽NOTICE
If the vehicle is parked for extended
periods outside in cold weather
(below -14°F/10°C), the power steer-
ing may require increased effort
when the engine is first started. This
is caused by increased fluid viscosity
due to the cold weather and does not
indicate a malfunction.
When this happens, increase the
engine RPM by depressing accelera-
tor until the RPM reaches 1,500 rpm
then release or let the engine idle for
two or three minutes to warm up the
fluid.
CAUTION
Never hold the steering wheel
against a stop (extreme right orleft turn) for more than 5 sec-onds with the engine running.Holding the steering wheel formore than 5 seconds in eitherposition may cause damage tothe power steering pump.CAUTION
If the sunroof is not reset whenthe vehicle battery is discon-nected or discharged, or relatedfuse is blown, the sunroof mayoperate improperly.

When the door is open, or if the
engine is not started within 1 minute,
the tachometer pointer may move
slightly in ON position with the
engine OFF. This movement is nor-
mal and will not affect the accuracy
of the tachometer once the engine is
running.
Engine temperature gauge
This gauge shows the temperature
of the engine coolant when the igni-
tion switch is ON.
Do not continue driving with an over-
heated engine. If your vehicle over-
heats, refer to “If the engine over-
heats” in section 6.
CAUTION
Do not operate the engine with-in the tachometer's RED ZONE.
This may cause severe enginedamage.
CAUTION
If the gauge pointer movesbeyond the normal range areatoward the “H” position, it indi-cates overheating that maydamage the engine.

Fuel gauge
The fuel gauge indicates the approx-
imate amount of fuel remaining in the
fuel tank.
The fuel tank capacity is
given in section 8.
The fuel gauge is
supplemented by a low fuel warning
light, which will illuminate when the
fuel tank is near empty. On inclines or curves, the fuel gauge
pointer may fluctuate or the low fuel
warning light may come on earlier
than usual due to the movement of
fuel in the tank.

Running out of fuel can expose
vehicle occupants to danger.
You must stop and obtain addi-
tional fuel as soon as possible
after the warning light comes
on or when the gauge indicator
comes close to the E level.
CAUTION
Avoid driving with a very low fuel level. If you run out of fuel, itcould cause the engine to mis-fire and result in excessive load-ing of the catalytic converter.

Tripmeter
TRIP A : Tripmeter A
TRIP B : Tripmeter B
This mode indicates the distance of
individual trips selected since the
last tripmeter reset.
The meter's working range is from
0.0 to 999.9 miles (0.0 to 999.9 km).
Pressing the RESET button for more
than 1 second, when the tripmeter
(TRIP A or TRIP B) is being dis-
played, clears the tripmeter to zero
(0.0).Distance to empty
This mode indicates the estimated
distance to empty based on the cur-
rent fuel in the fuel tank and the
amount of fuel delivered to the
engine. When the remaining distance
is below 30 miles (50 km), “---” will be
displayed and the distance to empty
indicator will blink.
The meter’s working range is from 30
to 999 miles (50 to 999 km).
Average fuel consumption (if equipped)
This mode calculates the average fuel
consumption from the total fuel used
and the distance since the last aver-
age consumption reset. The total fuel
used is calculated from the fuel con-
sumption input. For an accurate cal-
culation, drive more than 0.03 miles
(50 m).
Pressing the RESET button for more
than 1 second, when the average fuel
consumption is being displayed,
clears the average fuel consumption
to zero (----).
If the vehicle speed exceeds 1.6 MPH
(1 km/h) after refueled more than 1.6
gallons (6 l
), the average fuel con-
sumption will be cleared to zero (---).
