2019 Hyundai Ioniq Plug-in Hybrid Owner's Manual - RHD (UK, Australia)

F2
Modification to the original vehicle specification may invalidate the manufacturers warranty and may adverse-
ly affect the safety and durability of the vehicle.
Components which are subject to modification or are added to the original vehicle specification without the
express approval of the manufacturer and result in consequential loss or damage are not covered by the vehi-
cle manufacturers warranty.
Particular attention is drawn to the fitment of replacement road wheels having a different specification to those
installed in production. The electric power assisted steering system is specifically programmed to operate only
with the road wheels fitted during production. The installation of alternative specification road wheels may result
in the replacement road wheels fouling the vehicle body resulting in tyre damage and compromised safety. The
installation of after market wheels on vehicles equipped with TPMS may result in wheel balancing difficulties
or malfunction of the TPMS system.
We recommend that you contact a HYUNDAI authorised repairer before non original specification road wheels
are installed.
This vehicle is fitted with electronically controlled fuel injection or other \
micro processor controlled equipment.
It is possible for incorrectly installed two way radio equipment including mobile telephones to adversely affect
these systems.
Before radio equipment of this kind is installed, we recommend that you contact your HYUNDAI authorised
repairer for recommendation regarding the suitability of the particular radio equipment concerned and the rec-
ommended method of installation and equipment location. Incorrectly installed or unsuitable equipment which
gives rise to incorrect functioning of or damage to electronic vehicle components will not fall within the scope
of the vehicle manufacturers warranty.

Introduction
Petrol engine
Unleaded
For the optimal vehicle performance,
we recommend you use unleaded
petrol which has an octane rating of
RON (Research Octane Number) 95 /
AKI (Anti Knock Index) 91 or higher.
You may use unleaded petrol with an
octane rating of RON 91-94 / AKI 87-
90 but it may result in slight perform-
ance reduction of the vehicle. (Do not
use methanol blended fuels)
Your new vehicle is designed to
obtain maximum performance with
UNLEADED FUEL, as well as min-
imise exhaust emissions and spark
plug fouling.NEVER USE LEADED FUEL. The
use of leaded fuel is detrimental to
the catalytic converter and will
damage the engine control sys-
tem’s oxygen sensor and affect
emission control.
Never add any fuel system clean-
ing agents to the fuel tank other
than what has been specified (We
recommend that you consult a
HYUNDAI authorised repairer for
details.)

vent fuel spillage in the event
of an accident.

Introduction
Petrol containing alcohol andmethanol
Gasohol, a mixture of petrol and
ethanol (also known as grain alco-
hol), and petrol or gasohol containing
methanol (also known as wood alco-
hol) are being marketed along with or
instead of leaded or unleaded petrol.
Do not use gasohol containing more
than 10% ethanol, and do not use
petrol or gasohol containing any
methanol. Either of these fuels may
cause drivability problems and dam-
age to the fuel system, engine control
system and emission control system.
Discontinue using gasohol of any
kind if drivability problems occur.
Vehicle damage or driveability prob-
lems may not be covered by the
manufacturer’s warranty if they result
from the use of:
1. Gasohol containing more than 10% ethanol.
2. Petrol or gasohol containing methanol.
3. Leaded fuel or leaded gasohol. Never use gasohol which contains
methanol. Discontinue use of any
gasohol product which impairs
drivability.
Other fuels
Using fuel additives such as:
- Silicone fuel additive
- MMT (Magnanese, Mn) fuel additive
- Ferrocene (iron-based) fuel additive
- Other metallic-based fuel additives
may result in cylinder misfire, poor
acceleration, engine stalling, dam-
age to the catalyst, or abnormal cor-
rosion, and may cause damage to
the engine resulting in a reduction in
the overall life of the powertrain.
Damage to the fuel system or per-
formance problem caused by the
use of these fuels may not be cov-
ered by your New Vehicle Limited
Warranty.

Introduction
Use of MTBE
HYUNDAI recommends avoiding
fuels containing MTBE (Methyl
Tertiary Butyl Ether) over 15.0% vol.
(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.
Your New Vehicle Limited
Warranty may not cover damage
to the fuel system and any per-
formance problems that are
caused by the use of fuels con-
taining methanol or fuels contain-
ing MTBE (Methyl Tertiary Butyl
Ether) over 15.0% vol. (Oxygen
Content 2.7% weight.)
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) 95 / AKI (Anti Knock Index)
91 or higher.
For customers who do not use good
quality petrols, and have problems
starting or the engine does not run
smoothly, one bottle of additive added
to the fuel tank is recommended
according to the maintenance sched-
ule which is provided in your Service
Booklet.
Additives are available from your
HYUNDAI authorised repairer along
with information on how to use them.
Do not mix other additives.
Operation in foreign countries
If you are going to drive your vehicle
in another country, be sure to:
Observe all regulations regardingregistration and insurance.
Determine that acceptable fuel is available.
NOTICE

This vehicle should not be modi-fied. Modification of your vehicle
could affect its performance, safety
or durability and may even violate
governmental safety and emis-
sions regulations.
In addition, damage or perform-
ance problems resulting from any
modification may not be covered
under warranty.
If you use unauthorised electronic devices, it may cause the vehicle to
operate abnormally, wire damage,
battery discharge and fire. For your
safety, do not use unauthorised
electronic devices. By following a few simple precautions
for the first 600 miles (1,000 km) you
may add to the performance, econo-
my and life of your vehicle.
Do not race the engine.
Whilst driving, keep your engine
speed (rpm, or revolutions per
minute) between 2,000 rpm and
4,000 rpm.
Do not maintain a single speed for long periods of time, either fast or
slow. Varying engine speed is need-
ed to properly break-in the engine.
Avoid hard stops, except in emer- gencies, to allow the brakes to seat
properly. HYUNDAI promotes an environmen-
tally sound treatment for end of life
vehicles and offers to take back your
HYUNDAI end of life vehicles in
accordance with the European Union
(EU) End of Life Vehicles Directive.
You can get detailed information
from your national HYUNDAI home-
page.
