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.

Seat belt use and children
Infant and small children
Most countries have Child Restraint
System laws which require children to
travel in approved Child Restraint
System devices, including booster
seats. The age at which seat belts can
be used instead of Child Restraint
System differs among countries, so
you should be aware of the specific
requirements in your country, and
where you are travelling. Infant and
Child Restraint System must be prop-
erly placed and installed in a rear seat.
For more information refer to the “Child
Restraint Systems” in this chapter.Small children are best protected
from injury in an accident when prop-
erly restrained in the rear seat by a
Child Restraint System that meets the
requirements of the Safety Standards
of your country. Before buying any
Child Restraint System, make sure
that it has a label certifying that it
meets Safety Standard of your coun-
try. The Child Restraint System must
be appropriate for your child's height
and weight. Check the label on the
Child Restraint System for this informa-
tion. Refer to “Child Restraint Systems”
in this chapter.
ALWAYS properly restrain infants
and small children in a Child
Restraint System appropriate for
the child’s height and weight.
To reduce the risk of serious
injury or death to a child and
other passengers, NEVER hold a
child in your lap or arms when
the vehicle is moving. The violent
forces created during an acci-
dent will tear the child from your
arms and throw the child against
the interior of the vehicle.
WARNING

Safety system of your vehicle
Our recommendation:
Children always in the rear
Children under age 13 should always
ride in the rear seats and must
always be properly restrained to min-
imise the risk of injury in an accident,
sudden stop or sudden manoeuvre.
According to accident statistics, chil-
dren are safer when properly restrained
in the rear seats than in the front
seat. Children too large for a Child
Restraint System must use the seat
belts provided.Most countries have regulations which
require children to travel in approved
Child Restraint Systems.
The laws governing the age or
height/weight restrictions at which seat
belts can be used instead of Child
Restraint System differs among coun-
tries, so you should be aware of the
specific requirements in your country,
and where you are travelling.
Child Restraint Systems must be
properly installed in the vehicle seat.
Always use a commercially available
Child Restraint System that meets the
requirements of your country.
Child Restraint System (CRS)
Infants and younger children must be
restrained in an appropriate rearward-
facing or forward-facing CRS that has
first been properly secured to the seat
of the vehicle. Read and comply with
the instructions for installation and use
provided by the manufacturer of the
Child Restraint System.

Selecting a Child Restraint
System (CRS)
When selecting a Child Restraint
System for your child, always:
Make sure the Child RestraintSystem has a label certifying that it
meets applicable Safety Standards
of your country.
A Child Restraint System may only
be installed if it was approved in
accordance with the requirements of
ECE-R44 or ECE-R129.
Select a Child Restraint System based on your child’s height and
weight. The required label or the
instructions for use typically pro-
vide this information.
Select a Child Restraint System that fits the vehicle seating position
where it will be used.
Read and comply with the warn- ings and instructions for installation
and use provided with the Child
Restraint System.
Child Restraint System types
There are three main types of Child
Restraint Systems: rearward-facing,
forward-facing and booster Child
Restraint Systems.
They are classified according to the
child’s age, height and weight.
Always follow the Child Restraint
System manufacturer’s instruc-
tions for installation and use.
Always properly restrain your
child in the Child Restraint
System.
Do not use an infant carrier or
a child safety seat that “hooks”
over a seatback, it may not pro-
vide adequate protection in an
accident.
After an accident, we recom-
mend a HYUNDAI authorised
repairer to check the Child
Restraint System, seat belts,
ISOFIX anchorages and top-
tether anchorages.

Safety system of your vehicle
Rearward-facing Child Restraint
System
A rearward-facing Child Restraint
System provides restraint with the
seating surface against the back of
the child. The harness system holds
the child in place, and in an accident,
acts to keep the child positioned in the
Child Restraint Systems and reduce
the stress to the fragile neck and spinal
cord.All children under the age of one year
must always ride in a rearward-facing
Child Restraint System. There are dif-
ferent types of rearward-facing Child
Restraint Systems: infant-only Child
Restraint Systems can only be used
rearward-facing. Convertible and 3-in-
1 Child Restraint Systems typically
have higher height and weight limits
for the rearward-facing position, allow-
ing you to keep your child rearward-
facing for a longer period of time.
Keep using Child Restraint Systems
in the rearward-facing position as long
as children fit within the height and
weight limits allowed by the Child
Restraint System's manufacturer.
Forward-facing Child Restraint
System
A forward-facing Child Restraint System
provides restraint for the child’s body
with a harness. Keep children in a for-
ward-facing Child Restraint System
with a harness until they reach the
top height or weight limit allowed by
your Child Restraint System’s manu-
facturer.
Once your child outgrows the forward-
facing Child Restraint System, your
child is ready for a booster seat.

Convenient features of your vehicle
Headlamp delay function (if equipped)
If you place the ignition switch to the
ACC or OFF position with the head-
lamps ON, the headlamps (and/or
position lamps) remain on for about 5
minutes. However, with the engine off
if the driver’s door is opened and
closed, the headlamps (and/or posi-
tion lamps) are turned off after 15
seconds.
The headlamps (and/or position
lamps) can be turned off by pressing
the lock button on the remote key or
smart key twice or turning the light
switch to the OFF or AUTO position.
However, if you turn the light switch
to the AUTO position when it is dark
outside, the headlamps will not be
turned off.
You can activate or deactivate the
Headlamp Delay function from the
User Settings Mode on the LCD dis-
play. For more information, refer to
"LCD Display" in this chapter. If the driver gets out of the vehicle
through other doors (except dri-
ver's door), the battery saver func-
tion does not operate and the
headlamp delay function does not
turn off automatically. Therefore, It
causes the battery to be dis-
charged. In this case, make sure to
turn off the lamp before getting out
of the vehicle.
Daytime running light (DRL)
The Daytime Running Lights (DRL)
can make it easier for others to see
the front of your vehicle during the
day, especially after dawn and before
sunset.
The DRL system will turn the dedi-
cated lamp OFF when:
1. The headlamps are in the ON
position.
2. The engine is turned off.

Manual type
To adjust the headlamp beam level
according to the number of the pas-
sengers and loading weight in the
luggage area, turn the beam levelling
switch.
The higher the number on the switch
position, the lower the headlamp
beam level. Always keep the head-
light beam at the proper levelling
position, or headlamps may dazzle
other road users.
