Diesel engine
Diesel fuel
Diesel engine must be operated only
on commercially available diesel fuel
that complies with EN 590 or compa-
rable standard. (EN stands for
"European Norm"). Do not use
marine diesel fuel, heating oils, or
non-approved fuel additives, as this
will increase wear and cause dam-
age to the engine and fuel system.
The use of non-approved fuels and /
or fuel additives will result in a limita-
tion of your warranty rights.
Diesel fuel of above cetane 51 is
used in your vehicle. If two types of
diesel fuel are available, use summer
or winter fuel properly according to
the following temperature conditions.
Above -5°C (23°F) ... Summer typediesel fuel.
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.
Biodiesel
Commercially supplied Diesel blends
of no more than 7% biodiesel, com-
monly known as "B7 Diesel" may be
used in your vehicle if Biodiesel meets
EN 14214 or equivalent specifications.
(EN stands for "European Norm"). The
use of biofuels exceeding 7% made
from rapeseed methyl ester (RME),
fatty acid methyl ester (FAME), veg-
etable oil methyl ester (VME) etc. or
mixing diesel exceeding 7% with
biodiesel will cause increased wear or
damage to the engine and fuel sys-
tem. Repair or replacement of worn or
damaged components due to the use
of non approved fuels will not be cov-
ered by the manufactures warranty.

Introduction
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 jam-
ming the injection pump and
damaging the engine.
CAUTION
It is recommended to use the
regulated automotive diesel
fuel for diesel vehicle equipped
with the DPF system.
If you use diesel fuel including
high sulfur (more than 50 ppm
sulfur) and unspecified addi-
tives, it can cause the DPF sys-
tem to be damaged and white
smoke can be emitted.
CAUTION
Never use any fuel, whether
diesel, B7 biodiesel or other-
wise, that fails to meet the lat-
est petroleum industry speci-
fication.
Never use any fuel additives
or treatments that are not rec-
ommended or approved by
the vehicle manufacturer.
CAUTION

Driving your vehicle
Check battery and cables
The winter temperature increases
the battery consumption. Inspect
the battery and cables, as speci-
fied in the chapter 7. The battery
charging level can be checked by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer or in a
service station.
Change to "winter weight" oil if
necessary
In some regions during winter, it is
recommended to use the "winter
weight" oil with lower viscosity. For
further information, refer to the chap-
ter 8. When you are not sure about a
type of winter weight oil, consult an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer. Check spark plugs and ignition
system
Inspect the spark plugs, as speci-
fied in the chapter 7.
If necessary,
replace them. Also check all ignition
wirings and components for any
cracks, wear-out, and damage.
To prevent locks from freezing
To prevent the locks from being
frozen, spray approved de-icing fluid
or glycerin into key holes. When a
lock opening is already covered with
ice, spray approved de-icing fluid
over the ice to remove it. When an
internal part of a lock freezes, try to
thaw it with a heated key. Carefully
use the heated key to avoid an injury. Use approved window washer
anti-freeze solution in system
To prevent the window washer from
being frozen, add authorized window
washer anti-freeze solution, as spec-
ified on the window washer contain-
er. Window washer anti-freeze solu-
tion is available from an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer, and so are the
most vehicle accessory outlets. Do
not use engine coolant or other types
of anti-freeze solution to prevent any
damage to the vehicle paint.

Checking the engine oil level
1. Follow all of the oil manufacturer’s
precautions.
2. Be sure the vehicle is on level ground.
3. Start the engine and allow it to reach normal operating temperature.
4. Turn the engine off and wait for a few minutes (about 5 minutes) for
the oil to return to the oil pan.
5. Pull the dipstick out, wipe it clean, and re-insert it fully. 6. Pull the dipstick out again and
check the level. The level should
be between F (Full) and L (Low). 7. If it is near or at L, add enough oil
to bring the level to F.
Use only the specified engine oil.
(Refer to “Recommended lubricants
and capacities” in chapter 8.)

Radiator hose
Be very careful not to touch the
radiator hose when checking or
adding engine oil as it may be
hot enough to burn you.

Checking the brake/clutch
fluid level
Check the fluid level in the reservoir
periodically. The fluid level should be
between MAX and MIN marks on the
side of the reservoir.
Before removing the reservoir cap
and adding brake/clutch fluid, clean
the area around the reservoir cap
thoroughly to prevent brake/clutch
fluid contamination.
If the level is low, add fluid to the MAX
level. The level will fall with accumulat-
ed mileage. This is a normal condition
associated with the wear of the brake
linings. If the fluid level is excessively low,
we recommend that the system be
checked by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer.
Information
Use only the specified brake/clutch
fluid. (Refer to “Recommended lubri-
cants and capacities” in chapter 8.)
Information
Before removing the brake/clutch filler
cap, read the warning on the cap.
Information
Clean filler cap before removing. Use
only DOT3 or DOT4 brake/clutch fluid
from a sealed container.
Do not allow brake/clutch fluid
to contact the vehicle's body
paint, as paint damage will
result.
Brake/clutch fluid, which has been exposed to open air for an
extended time should never be
used as its quality cannot be
guaranteed. It should be dis-
posed of properly.
Don't put in the wrong kind of fluid. A few drops of mineral-
based oil, such as engine oil, in
your brake/ clutch system can
damage brake/ clutch system
parts.

OPD076016
If the brake/clutch system
requires frequent additions of
fluid this could indicate a leak in
the brake/clutch system. We
recommend that the vehicle be
inspected by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
WARNING
Do not allow brake/clutch fluid
to come in contact with your
eyes. If brake/clutch fluid comes
in contact with your eyes, flush
your eyes with clean water for at
least 15 minutes and get imme-
diate medical attention.

Interior care
Interior general precautions
Prevent chemicals such as perfume,
cosmetic oil, sun cream, hand cleaner
and air freshener from contacting the
interior parts because they may
cause damage or discoloration. If they
do contact the interior parts, wipe them
off immediately.
See the instructions that follow for
the proper way to clean vinyl.
Never allow water or other liquids to
come in contact with electrical/elec-
tronic components inside the vehi-
cle as this may damage them.
When cleaning leather products
(steering wheel, seats etc.), use
neutral detergents or low alcohol
content solutions. If you use high
alcohol content solutions or acid/
alkaline detergents, the color of
the leather may fade or the sur-
face may get stripped off.
Cleaning the upholstery andinterior trim
Vinyl
Remove dust and loose dirt from
vinyl with a whisk broom or vacuum
cleaner. Clean vinyl surfaces with a
vinyl cleaner.
Fabric
Remove dust and loose dirt from fabric
with a whisk broom or vacuum cleaner.
Clean with a mild soap solution recom-
mended for upholstery or carpets.
Remove fresh spots immediately with
a fabric spot cleaner. If fresh spots do
not receive immediate attention, the
fabric can be stained and its color can
be affected. Also, its fire-resistant prop-
erties can be reduced if the material is
not properly maintained.
Using anything but recommended
cleaners and procedures may affect
the fabric’s appearance and fire-
resistant properties.
Cleaning the lap/shoulder beltwebbing
Clean the belt webbing with any mild
soap solution recommended for clean-
ing upholstery or carpet. Follow the
instructions provided with the soap. Do
not bleach or re-dye the webbing
because this may weaken it.
Cleaning the interior windowglass
If the interior glass surfaces of the
vehicle become fogged (that is, cov-
ered with an oily, greasy or waxy film),
they should be cleaned with glass
cleaner. Follow the directions on the
glass cleaner container.
Do not scrape or scratch the inside
of the rear window. This may result
in damage to the rear window
defroster grid.
