CC losing the hood1. Before closing the hood, check the
following:
• All filler caps in engine compart- ment must be correctly installed.
• Gloves, rags or any other com- bustible material must be removed
from the engine compartment.
2. Return the support rod to its clip to prevent it from rattling.
3. Lower the hood halfway (lifted approximately 30cm from the
closed position) and push down to
securely lock in place. Then dou-
ble check to be sure the hood is
secure.
•
Before closing the hood, ensure
that all obstructions are
removed from the hood opening.
Closing the hood with an
obstruction present in the hood
opening may result in property
damage or severe personal
injury.
•
Do not leave gloves, rags or any
other combustible material in the
engine compartment. Doing so
may cause a heat-induced fire.
•
Do not move the vehicle with the
hood raised. The view will be
blocked and the hood could fall
or be damaged.
WARNING
Always double check to be surethat the hood is firmly latched
before driving away. Check there
is no hood open warning light or
message displayed on the instru-
ment cluster. Driving with the hood
opened may cause a total loss of
visibility, which might result in an
accident.

it clockwise until it “clicks” once.
This indicates that the cap is
securely tightened.
2. Close the fuel filler door (1) and push it lightly and make sure that it
is securely closed. Petrol is highly flammable and
explosive. Failure to follow these
guidelines may result in SERIOUS
INJURY or DEATH: •
Read and follow all warnings
posted at the gas station.
•
Before refueling, note the loca-
tion of the Emergency Petrol
Shut-Off, if available, at the gas
station.
(Continued)
(Continued)•
Before touching the fuel nozzle,
you should eliminate the poten-
tial build-up of static electricity
by touching a metal part of the
vehicle, a safe distance away
from the fuel filler neck, nozzle,
or other gas source, with your
bare hand.
•
Do not use cellular phones while
refueling. Electric current and/or
electronic interference from cel-
lular phones can potentially
ignite fuel vapors and cause a
fire.
•
Do not get back into a vehicle
once you have begun refueling.
You can generate a build-up of
static electricity by touching, rub-
bing or sliding against any item or
fabric capable of producing static
electricity. Static electricity dis-
charge can ignite fuel vapors
causing a fire.
(Continued)
(Continued)If you must re-enter the vehicle,
you should once again eliminate
potentially dangerous static elec-
tricity discharge by touching a
metal part of the vehicle, away
from the fuel filler neck, nozzle or
other petrol source, with your
bare hand.•
When using an approved
portable fuel container, be sure
to place the container on the
ground prior to refueling. Static
electricity discharge from the
container can ignite fuel vapors
causing a fire. Once refueling
has begun, contact between
your bare hand and the vehicleshould be maintained until the
filling is complete.
•
Use only approved portable plastic
fuel containers designed to carry
and store petrol.

IInformation
Make sure to refuel your vehicle
according to the "Fuel Requirements"
suggested in the foreword chapter.
Do not spill fuel on the exterior sur- faces of the vehicle. Any type of fuel
spilled on painted surfaces may
damage the paint.If the fuel filler cap requires replace-
ment, use only a genuine HYUNDAI
cap or the equivalent specified for
your vehicle. An incorrect fuel filler cap
can result in a serious malfunction of
the fuel system or emission control
system.NOTICEi
(Continued)•
When refueling, always move
the shift lever to the P (Park)
position (for Continuously
Variable Transaxle vehicle) or
first gear or R (Reverse) position
(for Manual Transaxle vehicle),
set the parking brake, and place
the ignition switch to the
LOCK/OFF position. Sparks
produced by electrical compo-
nents related to the engine can
ignite fuel vapors causing a fire.
•
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.
•
Do not over-fill or top-off your
vehicle tank, which can cause
petrol spillage.
(Continued)
(Continued)•
If a fire breaks out during refuel-
ing, leave the vicinity of the vehi-
cle, and immediately contact the
manager of the gas station and
then contact the local fire
department. Follow any safety
instructions they provide.
•
If pressurized fuel sprays out, it
can cover your clothes or skin
and thus subject you to the risk
of fire and burns. Always
remove the fuel cap carefully
and slowly. If the cap is venting
fuel or if you hear a hissing
sound, wait until the condition
stops before completely remov-
ing the cap.
•
Always check that the fuel cap is
installed securely to prevent fuel
spillage in the event of an acci-
dent.

)'#10*30-30.2+3%.,/3(21+2"1,/2*3!-$&3EElectric power steering (EPS)The system assists you with 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.
Also, the steering effort becomes
heavier as the vehicle’s speed
increases and becomes lighter as
the vehicle’s speed decreases for
better control of the steering wheel.
Should you notice any change in the
effort required to steer during normal
vehicle operation, we recommend
that the system be checked by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
If the Electric Power Steering
System does not operate normally,
the warning light ( ) will illuminate
on the instrument cluster. The steer-
ing wheel may become difficult to
control or operate. Take your vehicle
to an authorized HYUNDAI dealer
and have the system checked as
soon as possible.
Information
The following symptoms may occur
during normal vehicle operation:
The steering effort may be high
immediately after placing the igni-
tion switch in the ON position.
This happens as the system per-
forms the EPS system diagnostics.
When the diagnostics is completed,
the steering wheel will return to its
normal condition.
A click noise may be heard from the EPS relay after the ignition switch is
placed to the ON or LOCK/OFF
position.
Motor noise may be heard when the vehicle is at stop or at a low driving
speed.
When you operate the steering wheel in low temperature, abnormal
noise may occur. If temperature
rises, the noise will disappear. This
is a normal condition.i

horn will operate only when this area
is pressed.Do not strike the horn severely to
operate it, or hit it with your fist. Do
not press on the horn with a sharp-
pointed object.NOTICE
