FUEL REQUIREMENTS
Gasoline engine
Unleaded
For Europe
For the optimal vehicle performance, we recommend you to use unleaded gasoline with an octane rating of RON (Research Octane Number) 95 /AKI (Anti Knock Index) 91 or higher.
You may use unleaded gasoline with an octane rating of RON 91~94/AKI 87~90 but it may result in slight performance reduction of the vehicle.
Except Europe
Your new vehicle is designed to use only unleaded fuel having an Octane Rating of RON (Research Octane Number) 91 / AKI (Anti-Knock Index) 87 or higher.
Your new vehicle is designed to obtain maximum performance with UNLEADED FUEL, as well as minimize exhaust emissions and spark plug fouling.
CAUTION
NEVER USE LEADED FUEL. The use of leaded fuel is detrimental to the catalytic converter and will damage the engine control system’s oxygen sensor and affect emission control.
Never add any fuel system cleaning agents to the fuel tank other than what has been specified. (Consult an authorized HYUNDAI dealer for details.)
WARNING
•Do not "top off" after the nozzle automatically shuts off when refueling.
•Always check that the fuel cap is installed securely to prevent fuel spillage in the event of an accident.
Introduction
Leaded (if equipped)
For some countries, your vehicle is designed to use leaded gasoline. When you are going to use leaded gasoline, ask an authorized HYUNDAI dealer whether leaded gasoline in your vehicle is available or not.
Octane Rating of leaded gasoline is same with unleaded one.

JC ENG 1.QXP 9/7/2010 11:28 AM Page 4
Introduction
Gasoline containing alcohol and methanol
Gasohol, a mixture of gasoline and ethanol (also known as grain alcohol), and gasoline or gasohol containing methanol (also known as wood alcohol) are being marketed along with or instead of leaded or unleaded gasoline.
Do not use gasohol containing more than 10% ethanol, and do not use gasoline or gasohol containing any methanol. Either of these fuels may cause drivability problems and damage to the fuel system.
Discontinue using gasohol of any kind if drivability problems occur.
Vehicle damage or driveability problems may not be covered by the manufacturer’s warranty if they result from the use of:
1.Gasohol containing more than 10% ethanol.
2.Gasoline or gasohol containing methanol.
3.Leaded fuel or leaded gasohol.
CAUTION
Never use gasohol which contains methanol. Discontinue use of any gasohol product which impairs drivability.
Use of MTBE
Fuels containing MTBE (Methyl Tertiary Butyl Ether) over 15.0% vol. (Oxygen Content 2.7% weight) should not be used in your vehicle.
Fuel containing MTBE over 15.0% vol. (Oxygen Content 2.7% weight) may reduce vehicle performance and produce vapor 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.
CAUTION
Your New Vehicle Limited Warranty may not cover damage to the fuel system and any performance problems that are caused by the use of fuels containing methanol or fuels containing MTBE (Methyl Tertiary Butyl Ether) over 15.0% vol. (Oxygen Content 2.7% weight.)
Gasolines for cleaner air
To help contribute to cleaner air, we recommend that you use gasolines treated with detergent additives, which help prevent deposit formation in the engine. These gasolines will help the engine run cleaner and enhance performance of the Emission Control System.
Operation in foreign countries
If you are going to drive your vehicle in another country, be sure to:
•Observe all regulations regarding registration and insurance.
•Determine that acceptable fuel is available.

JC ENG 1.QXP 9/7/2010 11:28 AM Page 5
Diesel engine
Diesel fuel
Diesel engine must be operated only on commercially available diesel fuel that complies with EN 590 or comparable standard. (EN stands for "European Norm"). Do not use marine diesel fuel, heating oils, or non-approved fuel additives, as this will increase wear and cause damage to the engine and fuel system. The use of non-approved fuels and / or fuel additives will result in a limitation of your warranty rights.
Diesel fuel of above cetane 51 is used in your vehicle. If two types of diesel fuel are available, use summer or winter fuel properly according to the following temperature conditions.
•Above -5°C (23°F) ... Summer type diesel fuel.
•Below -5°C (23°F) ... Winter type diesel fuel.
Watch the fuel level in the tank very carefully : If the engine stops through fuel failure, the circuits must be completely purged to permit restarting.
CAUTION
•Do not let any gasoline or water enter the tank. This would make it necessary to drain it out and to bleed the lines to avoid jamming the injection pump and damaging the engine.
•In winter, in order to cut down incidents due to freezing, paraffin oil may be added to the fuel if the temperature drops to below -10°C (14°F). Never use more than 20% paraffin oil.
CAUTION - Diesel Fuel (if equipped with DPF)
It is recommended to use the regulated automotive diesel fuel for diesel vehicle equipped with the DPF system.
If you use diesel fuel including high sulfur (more than 50 ppm sulfur) and unspecified additives, it can cause the DPF system to be damaged and white smoke can be emitted.
Introduction
Biodiesel
Commercially supplied Diesel blends of no more than 7% biodiesel, commonly known as "B7 Diesel" may be used in your vehicle if Biodiesel meets EN 14214 or equivalent specifications. (EN stands for "European Norm"). The use of biofuels exceeding 7% made from rapeseed methyl ester (RME), fatty acid methyl ester (FAME), vegetable oil methyl ester (VME) etc. or mixing diesel exceeding 7% with biodiesel will cause increased wear or damage to the engine and fuel system. Repair or replacement of worn or damaged components due to the use of non approved fuels will not be covered by the manufactures warranty.
CAUTION
•Never use any fuel, whether diesel, B7 biodiesel or otherwise, that fails to meet the latest petroleum industry specification.
•Never use any fuel additives or treatments that are not recommended or approved by the vehicle manufacturer.

Introduction
VEHICLE BREAK-IN PROCESS
No special break-in period is needed. By following a few simple precautions for the first 1,000 km (600 miles) you may add to the performance, economy and life of your vehicle:
•Do not race the engine.
•While 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 needed to properly break-in the engine.
•Avoid hard stops, except in emergencies, to allow the brakes to seat properly.
•Don't let the engine idle longer than 3 minutes at one time.
•Don't tow a trailer during the first 2,000 km (1,200 miles) of operation.

Safety features of your vehicle
WARNING - Loose objects
Loose objects in the driver’s foot area could interfere with the operation of the foot pedals, possibly causing an accident. Do not place anything under the front seats.
WARNING - Uprighting seat
When you return the seatback to its upright position, hold the seatback and return it slowly and be sure there are no other occupants around the seat. If the seatback is returned without being held and controlled, the back of the seat could move forward or backward resulting in accidental injury to a person struck by the seatback.
WARNING - Driver responsibility for passengers
Riding in a vehicle with seatback reclined could lead to serious or fatal injury in an accident. If a seat is reclined during an accident, the occupant’s hips may slide under the lap portion of the seat belt applying great force to the unprotected abdomen. The protection of your retraint system (seat belt and air bags) is greatly reduced by reclining your seat. Serious or fatal internal injuries could result. The driver must advise the passenger to keep the seatback in an upright position whenever the vehicle is in motion.
WARNING - Driver’s seat
•Never attempt to adjust seat while the vehicle is moving. This could result in loss of control, and an accident causing death, serious injury, or property damage.
•Do not allow anything to interfere with the normal position of the seatback. Storing items against a seatback or in any other way interfering with proper locking of a seatback could result in serious or fatal injury in a sudden stop or collision.
•Always drive and ride with your seatback upright and the lap portion of the seat belt snug and low across the hips. This is the best position to protect you in case of an accident.
•In order to avoid unnecessary and perhaps severe air bag injuries, always sit as far back as possible from the steering wheel while maintaining comfortable control of the vehicle. We recommend that your chest be at least 250 mm (10 inches) away from the steering wheel.

Safety features of your vehicle
WARNING - Rear seatbacks
•The rear seatback must be securely latched. If not, passengers and objects could be thrown forward resulting in serious injury or death in the event of a sudden stop or collision.
•Luggage and other cargo should be laid flat in the cargo area. If objects are large, heavy, or must be piled, they must be secured. Under no circumstances should cargo be piled higher than the seatbacks. Failure to follow these warnings could result in serious injury or death in the event of a sudden stop, collision or rollover.
•No passenger should ride in the cargo area or sit or lie on folded seatbacks while the vehicle is moving. All passengers must be properly seated in seats and restrained properly while riding.
(Continued)
(Continued)
•When resetting the seatback to the upright position, make sure it is securely latched by pushing it forward and backwards.
•To avoid the possibility of burns, do not remove the carpet in the cargo area. Emission control devices beneath this floor generate high temperatures.
WARNING
After adjusting the seat, always check that it is securely locked into place by attempting to move the seat forward or backward without using the lock release lever. Sudden or unexpected movement of the driver's seat could cause you to lose control of the vehicle resulting in an accident.
OJC030002
Front seat adjustment
Forward and backward
To move the seat forward or backward:
1.Pull the seat slide adjustment lever up 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.
Adjust the seat before driving, and make sure the seat is locked securely by trying to move forward and backward without using the lever. If the seat moves, it is not locked properly.

Headrest
The driver's and front passenger's seats are equipped with a headrest for the occupant's safety and comfort.
The headrest not only provides comfort for the driver and front passenger, but also helps to protect the head and neck in the event of a collision.
WARNING
•For maximum effectiveness in case of an accident, the headrest should be adjusted so the middle of the headrest is at the same height of the center of gravity of an occupant's head. Generally, the center of gravity of most people's head is similar with the height of the top of their eyes. Also, adjust the headrest as close to your head as possible. For this reason, the use of a cushion that holds the body away from the seatback is not recommended.
•Do not operate the vehicle with the headrests removed as severe injury to the occupants may occur in the event of an accident. Headrests may provide protection against neck injuries when properly adjusted.
•Do not adjust the headrest position of the driver’s seat while the vehicle is in motion.

Active headrest (if equipped)
The active headrest is designed to move forward and upward during a rear impact. This helps to prevent the driver's and front passenger’s heads from moving backward and thus helps prevent neck injuries.
WARNING
A gap between the seat and the headrest release button may appear when seating on the seat or when you push or pull the seat. Be careful not to get your finger, etc. caught in the gap.

Seat warmer (if equipped)
The seat warmer is provided to warm the front seats during cold weather. With the ignition switch in the ON position, push either of the switches to warm the driver's seat or the front passenger's seat.
The seat warmer defaults to the OFF position whenever the ignition switch is turned on.
During mild weather or under conditions where the operation of the seat warmer is not needed, keep the switches in the "OFF" position.
NOTICE
•With the seat warmer switch in the ON position, the heating system in the seat turns off or on automatically depending on the seat temperature.
•If the seat warmer doesn't work when the ambient temperature is below 21 °C (70 °F), have the system checked by an authorized dealer.
CAUTION
•When cleaning the seats, do not use an organic solvent such as thinner, benzene, alcohol and gasoline. Doing so may damage the surface of the heater or seats.
•To prevent overheating the seat warmer, do not place blankets, cushions or seat covers on the seats while the seat warmer is in operation.
•Do not place heavy or sharp objects on seats equipped with seat warmers. Damage to the seat warming components could occur.

1.Pull up the seatback recline lever.
2.Hold the lever and adjust the seatback of the seat to the position you desire.
3.Release the lever and make sure the seatback is locked in place. (The lever MUST return to its original position for the seatback to lock.)
Folding the rear seat
The rear seatbacks may be folded to facilitate carrying long items or to increase the luggage capacity of the vehicle.
WARNING
The purpose of the fold-down rear seatbacks is to allow you to carry longer objects than could not otherwise be accommodated.
Never allow passengers to sit on top of the folded down seatback while the car is moving as this is not a proper seating position and no seat belts are available for use. This could result in serious injury or death in case of an accident or sudden stop. Objects carried on the folded down seatback should not extend higher than the top of the front seats. This could allow cargo to slide forward and cause injury or damage during sudden stops.
OJC030035
To fold the rear seat
1.Insert the rear seat belt buckle in the pocket between the rear seatback and cushion, and insert the rear seat belt in the guide to prevent the seat belt from being damaged.
2.Set the front seatback to the upright position and if necessary, slide the front seat forward and the rear seat rearward.
3.Lower the rear headrests to lowest position.

4.Pull the lock release lever and fold the rear seatback forward and down firmly.
5.To use the rear seat, lift the seatback by pulling the lock release lever and push the seatback backward firmly until it clicks into place. Make sure the seatback is locked in place.
6.Return the rear seat belt to the proper position.
WARNING
When you return the rear seatback to its upright position after being folded down:
Be careful not to damage the seat belt webbing or buckle. Do not allow the seat belt webbing or buckle to get caught or pinched in the rear seat. Ensure that the seatback is completely locked into its upright position by pushing on the top of the seatback. Otherwise, in an accident or sudden stop, the seat could fold down and allow cargo to enter the passenger compartment, which could result in serious injury or death.
CAUTION - Damaging rear seat belt buckles
When you fold the rear seatback or put luggage on the rear seat cushion, insert the buckle in the pocket between the rear seatback and cushion. Doing so can prevent the buckle from being damaged by the rear seatback or luggage.
CAUTION - Rear seat belts
When returning the rear seatbacks to the upright position, remember to return the rear shoulder belts to their proper position.
