✽ ✽
NOTICE
Damage to the fuel system or per-
formance problem caused by the use
of these fuels may not be covered by
your New Vehicle Limited
Warranty.
Gasoline containing MMT
Some gasoline contains harmful
manganese-based fuel additives
such as
MMT (Methylcyclopentadienyl
Manganese Tricarbonyl
).
Genesis Branded Vehicle does not
recommend the use of gasoline con-
taining 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.
Fuel Additives
Genesis Branded Vehicle recom-
mends that you use good 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, deter-
gent-based fuel additives that you
can purchase separately may be
added to the gasoline. If TOP TIER
Detergent Gasoline is not available,
one bottle of additive added to the
fuel tank according to the mainte-
nance schedule is recommended
(refer to the Maintenance Schedule
in chapter 7).
Additives are available from your
authorized retailer of Genesis
Branded products along with infor-
mation on how to use them. Do not
mix other additives.

Seat warmers and air ventila-
tion seats
Seat warmers (if equipped)
Seat warmers are provided to warm
the seats during cold weather.
Safety system of your vehicle
The seat warmers can cause a
serious burn, even at low tem-
peratures and especially if used
for long periods of time.
Passengers must be able to feel
if the seat is becoming too warm
so they can turn it off, if needed.
People who cannot detect tem-
perature change or pain to the
skin should use extreme cau-
tion, especially the following
types of passengers:
Infants, children, elderly or
disabled persons, or hospital
outpatients.
People with sensitive skin or
who burn easily.
(Continued)
(Continued)
Fatigued individuals.
Intoxicated individuals.
People taking medication that
can cause drowsiness or
sleepiness.
WARNING
NEVER place anything on the
seat that insulates against heat
when the seat warmer is in oper-
ation, such as a blanket or seat
cushion. This may cause the
seat warmer to overheat, caus-
ing a burn or damage to the seat.
WARNING
To prevent damage to the seat
warmers and seats:
Never use a solvent such as
paint thinner, benzene, alco-
hol or gasoline to clean the
seats.
Do not place heavy or sharp
objects on seats equipped
with seat warmers.
Do not change the seat cover.
It may damage the seat
warmer.

NOTICE
• Make sure to refuel your
vehicle according to the "Fuel
Requirements" suggested in the
Introduction chapter.
• Do not spill fuel on the exterior
surfaces of the vehicle. Any type of
fuel spilled on painted surfaces
may damage the paint.
(Continued)
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
gasoline spillage.
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. 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 com-
pletely removing the cap.
(Continued)
(Continued)
Always check that the fuel cap
is installed securely to pre-
vent fuel spillage in the event
of an accident.
(Continued)
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 vehicle should
be maintained until the filling
is complete.
Use only approved portable
plastic fuel containers designed
to carry and store gasoline.
When refueling, always move
the shift lever to the P (Park)
position, set the parking
brake, and press the Engine
Start/Stop button to the OFF
position. Sparks produced by
electrical components related
to the engine can ignite fuel
vapors causing a fire.
