WARNING- Cell phone
fires
Do not use cellular phones
while refueling. Electric current
and/or electronic interference
from cellular phones can poten-
tially ignite fuel vapors causing
a fire.
WARNING- Smoking
DO NOT use matches or a
lighter and DO NOT SMOKE or
leave a lit cigarette in your vehi-
cle while at a gas station espe-
cially during refueling.
Automotive fuel is highly flam-
mable and can, when ignited,
result in fire.
WARNING- Refueling & Vehicle fires
When refueling, always shut the
engine off. Sparks produced by
electrical components related
to the engine can ignite fuel
vapors causing a fire. Once
refueling is complete, check to
make sure the filler cap and
filler door are securely closed,
before starting the engine.
WARNING- Portable fuel container
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 with the
vehicle should be maintained
until the filling is complete. Use
only approved portable plastic
fuel containers designed to
carry and store gasoline.WARNING
In case of using EV drive mode
for a certain time without run-
ning Engine, EMM(Engine
Maintenance Mode) will auto-
matically activate by the system
to protect fuel system and the
engine.
Therefore, even though if it is
possible to use EV drive mode
with enough battery power, the
engine may run by the system
to protect fuel system and the
engine.
If you leave the fuel without
refueling or using for over 6
months, the remained fuel in the
fuel system may be deteriorat-
ed. From this, corrosion or
blocking problem may occur.
It is recommended using mini-
mum 40% of remained fuel at
least every 6 months by select-
ing Hybrid (CS) mode and refu-
el the vehicle with new fuel.
