fuels containing MTBE (Methyl
Te r t i a r y B u t y l E t h e r ) o v e r 1 5 . 0 % v o l .
(Oxygen Content 2.7% weight) in
your vehicle.
Fuel containing MTBE over 15.0%
vol. (Oxygen Content 2.7% weight)
may reduce vehicle performance and
produce vapour lock or hard starting.
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 damage
components of the fuel system,
engine control system and emission
control system.
Fuel Additives
HYUNDAI recommends that you use
unleaded petrol which has an
Octane Rating of RON (Research
Octane Number) 91 or higher.
For customers who do not use good
quality petrols including fuel addi-
tives regularly, and have problems
starting or the engine does not run
smoothly, add one bottle of additives
to the fuel tank at every 15,000km.
Additives are available from your
authorised HYUNDAI dealer along
with information on how to use them.
Do not mix other additives.Yo u r N e w Ve h i c l e L i m i t e d
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 or fuels con-
taining MTBE (Methyl Tertiary
Butyl Ether) over 15.0% vol.
(Oxygen Content 2.7% weight.)

Safety precautions
Adjusting the seats so that you are sit-
ting in a safe, comfortable position
plays an important role in driver and
passenger safety, together with seat
belts and air bags, in an accident.
Air bags
Yo u c a n t a k e s t e p s t o r e d u c e t h e r i s k
of being injured by an inflating air
bag. Sitting too close to an air bag
greatly increases the risk of injury in
the event the air bag inflates. Move
your seat as far back as possible
from front air bags, whilst still main-
taining control of the vehicle.
Do not sit on a cushion. A pas-
senger may slide under the lap
portion of the seat belt during an
accident or a sudden stop.
Serious or fatal internal injuries
could result because the seat
belt cannot operate properly.
WA R N I N G
To r e d u c e t h e r i s k o f s e r i o u s
injury or death from an inflating
air bag, take the following pre-
cautions:
•Adjust the driver’s seat as far
to the rear as possible whilst
maintaining the ability to
maintain full control of the
vehicle.
•Adjust the front passenger
seat as far to the rear as pos-
sible.
•Hold the steering wheel by the
rim with hands at the 9 o’clock
and 3 o’clock positions to
minimise the risk of injuries to
your hands and arms.
•NEVER place anything or any-
one between the air bag.
•Do not allow the front passen-
ger to place their feet or legs
on the instrument panel, to
minimise the risk of leg
injuries.

Manual adjustment
Forward and rearward adjustment
To m o v e t h e s e a t f o r w a r d o r r e a r w a r d :
1. Pull up the seat slide adjustment
lever and hold it.
2. Slide the seat to the position you
desire.
3. Release the lever and make sure
the seat is locked in place. Move
forward and rearward without using
the lever. If the seat moves, it is not
locked properly.
2
To p r e v e n t i n j u r y :
•Do not adjust your seat whilst
wearing your seat belt.
Moving the seat cushion for-
ward may cause strong pres-
sure on your abdomen.
•Do not allow your hands or
fingers to get caught in the
seat mechanisms whilst the
seat is moving.
CAUTION(Continued)
•Do not allow anything to inter-
fere with the normal position
and proper locking of the seat-
back.
•Do not place a cigarette lighter
on the floor or seat. When you
operate the seat, gas may exit
out of the lighter causing a fire.
•Use extreme caution when
picking up small objects
trapped under the seats or
between the seat and the cen-
tre console. Your hands might
be cut or injured by the sharp
edges of the seat mechanism.
•If there are occupants in the
rear seats, be careful whilst
adjusting the front seat posi-
tion.

Seatback angle
To r e c l i n e t h e s e a t b a c k :
1. Lean forward slightly and lift up the
seatback lever.
2. Carefully lean back on the seat
and adjust the seatback to the
position you desire.
3. Release the lever and make sure
the seatback is locked in place.
(The lever MUST return to its orig-
inal position for the seatback to
lock.)
Reclining seatback
Sitting in a reclined position when
the vehicle is in motion can be dan-
gerous. Even when buckled up, the
protections of your restraint system
(seat belts and/or air bags) is greatly
reduced by reclining your seatback.
Seat belts must be snug against your
hips and chest to work properly.
When the seatback is reclined, the
shoulder belt cannot do its job
because it will not be snug against
your chest. Instead, it will be in front
of you. During an accident, you could
be thrown into the seat belt, causing
neck or other injuries.
The more the seatback is reclined,
the greater chance the passenger’s
hips will slide under the lap belt or
the passenger’s neck will strike the
shoulder belt.
Safety system of your vehicle
OAD035003/HNEVER ride with a reclined
seatback when the vehicle is
moving.
Riding with a reclined seatback
increases your chance of seri-
ous or fatal injuries in the event
of a collision or sudden stop.
The driver and passengers
should ALWAYS sit well back in
their seats, properly restrained,
and with the seatbacks upright.
