FUEL REQUIREMENTS

Your new vehicle is designed to obtain maximum performance with UNLEAD- ED FUEL, as well as minimize exhaust emissions and spark plug fouling.

Your new vehicle is designed to use only unleaded fuel having a pump octane number ((R+M)/2) of 87 (Research Octane Number 91) or higher. (Do not use methanol blend- ed fuels.)

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 - Refueling

• Do not "top off" after the noz- zle automatically shuts off when refueling. Attempts to force more fuel into the tank can cause fuel overflow onto you and the ground causing a risk of fire.

• Always check that the fuel cap is installed securely to pre- vent fuel spillage in the event of an accident.

Gasoline containing alcohol or methanol

Gasohol, a mixture of gasoline and ethanol (also known as grain alco- hol) are being marketed along with or instead of leaded or unleaded gaso- line. For example, "E15" is a gasohol comprised of 15% ethanol and 85% gasoline.

Do not use gasohol containing more than 15% ethanol, and do not use gasoline 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.

"E85" fuel is an alternative fuel com- prised of 85 percent ethanol and 15 percent gasoline, and is manufac- tured exclusively for use in Flexible Fuel Vehicles. "E85" is not compati- ble with your vehicle. Use of "E85" may result in poor engine perform- ance and damage to your vehicle's engine and fuel system. HYUNDAI recommends that customers do not use fuel with an ethanol content exceeding 15 percent.

Introduction



NOTICE

To prevent damage to your vehicle’s engine and fuel system:

• Never use gasohol which contains methanol.

• Never use gasohol containing more than 15% ethanol.

• Never use leaded fuel or leaded gasohol.

• Never use "E85" fuel.

Your New Vehicle Limited Warranty does not cover damage to the fuel system or any performance problems caused by the use of "E85" fuel.

Introduction

Other fuels

Using fuels such as;

- Silicone (Si) contained fuel,

- Ferrocene (Fe) contained fuel, and

- Other metallic additives contained fuels,

may cause vehicle and engine dam- age or cause plugging, misfiring, poor acceleration, engine stalling, catalyst melting, abnormal corrosion, life cycle reduction, etc.

Also, the Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) may illuminate.



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).

HYUNDAI does not recommend the use of gasoline containing 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.

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.



NOTICE

Your New Vehicle Limited Warranty may not cover damage to the fuel system and any perform- ance problems that are caused by the use of fuels containing methanol.

Introduction

Fuel Additives

HYUNDAI recommends that you use good quality gasolines treated with detergent additives such as TOP TIER Detergent Gasoline, which help prevent deposit formation in the engine.

These gasolines will help the engine run cleaner and enhance perform- ance of the Emission Control System. For more information on TOP TIER Detergent Gasoline, please go to the website (www.top- tiergas.com)

For customers who do not use TOP Tier Detergent Gasoline regularly, and have problems starting their vehicle or the engine does not run smoothly, additives that you can buy separately may be added to the gasoline.

If TOP TIER Detergent Gasoline is not available, one bottle of additive added to the fuel tank at every 7,500mile or every engine oil change is recommended. Additives are avail- able from your authorized HYUNDAI dealer along with information on how to use them. Do not mix other addi- tives.

Operation in foreign countries

If you are going to drive your vehicle in another state, be sure to:

• Observe all regulations regarding registration and insurance.

• Determine that acceptable fuel is available.

Introduction

VEHICLE BREAK-IN PROCESS

No special break-in period is need- ed. By following a few simple precau- tions for the first 600 miles (1,000 km) you may add to the perform- ance, economy and life of your vehi- cle.

• 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 vehicle speed for long periods of time, either fast or slow. Varying the engine speed is needed to proper- ly break-in the engine.

• Avoid hard stops, except in emer- gencies, to allow the brakes to seat properly.

CALIFORNIA PROPO- SITION 65 WARNING

Items contained in motor vehi- cles or emitted from them are known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or reproductive harm. These include:

• Gasoline and its vapors

• Engine exhaust

• Used engine oil

• Interior passenger compart- ment components and materi- als

• Component parts which are subject to heat and wear

In addition, battery posts, termi- nals and related accessories contain lead, lead compounds and other chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer and reproductive harm.

VEHICLE HANDLING INSTRUCTIONS

As with other vehicles of this type, failure to operate this vehicle correct- ly may result in loss of control, an accident or vehicle rollover.

Specific design characteristics (high- er ground clearance, track, etc.) give this vehicle a higher center of gravity than other types of vehicles. It is not designed for cornering at the same speeds as a conventional 2-wheel drive sedans or sports coupe. Avoid sharp turns or abrupt maneuvers. Failure to operate this vehicle cor- rectly may result in loss of control, an accident or vehicle rollover. Be sure

to read the "Reducing the risk of a rollover" driving guidelines, in section 5 of this manual.

VEHICLE DATA COLLECTION AND EVENT DATA RECORDERS

This vehicle is equipped with an event data recorder (EDR). The main purpose of an EDR is to record, in certain crash or near crash-like situations, such as an air bag deployment or hitting a road obstacle, data that will assist in understanding how a vehicle's systems performed. The EDR is designed to record data related to vehicle dynamics and safety sys- tems for a short period of time, typically 30 seconds or less. The EDR in this vehicle is designed to record such data as:

• How various systems in your vehicle were operating;

• Whether or not the driver and passenger safety belts were buckled/fastened;

• How far (if at all) the driver was depressing the accelerator and/or brake pedal; and,

• How fast the vehicle was travel- ing.

These data can help provide a bet- ter understanding of the circum- stances in which crashes and injuries occur. NOTE: EDR data are recorded by your vehicle only if a non-trivial crash situation occurs; no data are recorded by the EDR under normal driving conditions and no personal data (e.g., name, gender, age, and crash location) are recorded. However, other par- ties, such as law enforcement, could combine the EDR data with the type of personally identifying data routinely acquired during a crash investigation.

Introduction

To read data recorded by an EDR, special equipment is required, and access to the vehicle or the EDR is needed. In addition to the vehicle manufacturer, other parties, such as law enforcement, that have the special equipment, can read the information if they have access to the vehicle or the EDR.

Safety features of your vehicle

IMPORTANT SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

You will find many safety precautions and recommendations throughout this section, and throughout this manual. The safety precautions in this section are among the most important.

Always Wear Your Seat Belt

A seat belt is your best protection in all types of accidents. Air bags are designed to supplement seat belts, not replace them. So even though your vehicle is equipped with air bags, ALWAYS make sure you and your passengers wear your seat belts, and wear them properly.

Restrain All Children

All children under age 13 should ride in your vehicle properly restrained in a rear seat, not the front seat. Infants and small children should be restrained in an appropriate child restraint. Larger children should use a booster seat with the lap/shoulder belt until they can use the seat belt properly without a booster seat.

Air Bag Hazards

While air bags can save lives, they can also cause serious or fatal injuries to occupants who sit too close to them, or who are not prop- erly restrained. Infants, young chil- dren, and shorter adults are at the greatest risk of being injured by an inflating air bag. Follow all instruc- tions and warnings in this manual.

Driver Distraction

Driver distraction presents a serious and potentially deadly danger, espe- cially for inexperienced drivers. Safety should be the first concern when behind the wheel and drivers need to be aware of the wide array of potential distractions, such as drowsiness, reaching for objects, eating, personal grooming, other passengers, and using cellular phones.

Drivers can become distracted when they take their eyes and attention off the road or their hands off the wheel to focus on activities other than driv- ing. To reduce your risk of distraction or getting into an accident:

Safety features of your vehicle

• ALWAYS set up your mobile devices (i.e., MP3 players, phones, navigation units, etc.) when your vehicle is parked or safely stopped.

• ONLY use your mobile device when allowed by laws and when conditions permit safe use. NEVER text or email while driving. Most states have laws prohibiting drivers from texting. Some states and cities also prohibit drivers from using handheld phones.

• NEVER let the use of a mobile device distract you from driving. You have a responsibility to your passengers and others on the road to always drive safely, with your hands on the wheel as well as your eyes and attention on the road.

Control Your Speed

Excessive speed is a major factor in crash injuries and deaths. Generally, the higher the speed, the greater the risk, but serious injuries can also occur at lower speeds. Never drive faster than is safe for current condi- tions, regardless of the maximum speed posted.

Keep Your Vehicle in Safe Condition

Having a tire blowout or a mechani- cal failure can be extremely haz- ardous. To reduce the possibility of such problems, check your tire pres- sures and condition frequently, and perform all regularly scheduled maintenance.

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 with- out being held and controlled, the back of the seat could spring forward resulting in acci- dental injury to a person struck by the seatback.

WARNING - Driver

responsibility for passengers

Riding in a vehicle with the seatback reclined could lead to serious or fatal injury in an acci- dent. If a seat is reclined during an accident, the occupant’s hips may slide under the lap portion of the seat belt, apply- ing great force to the unprotect- ed abdomen. Serious or fatal internal injuries could result. The driver must advise the pas- senger to keep the seatback in an upright position whenever the vehicle is in motion.

WARNING

Occupants should never sit on seat cushions. The passenger's hips may slide under the lap portion of the seat belt during an accident or a sudden stop. Serious or fatal internal injuries could result because the seat belt cannot operate normally.

WARNING - Driver’s seat

To avoid serious injury or death:

• Never attempt to adjust the seat while the vehicle is mov- ing. This could result in loss of control, and an accident causing death, serious injury, or property damage.

• Do not allow anything to inter- fere 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 col- lision.

• In order to avoid unnecessary and perhaps severe air bag injuries, always sit as far back as possible from the steering wheel while maintaining com- fortable control of the vehicle. We recommend that your chest be at least 10 inches (250 mm) away from the steer- ing wheel.

WARNING - Rear

seatbacks

• The rear seatback must be securely latched. If not, pas- sengers and objects could be thrown forward resulting in serious injury or death in the event of a sudden stop or col- lision.

• No passenger should ride in the cargo area or sit or lie on folded seatbacks while the vehicle is moving. All passen- gers must be properly seated in seats and restrained prop- erly while riding.

• When resetting the seatback to the upright position, make sure it is securely latched by pushing it forward and rear- wards.

• To avoid the possibility of burns, do not remove the car- pet in the cargo area. Emission control devices beneath this floor generate high tempera- tures.

(Continued)

• Luggage and other cargo should be laid flat in the cargo area or on the folded rear seatback. If objects are large, heavy, or must be piled, they must be secured. Under no circumstances should cargo be piled higher than the seat- backs. Failure to follow these warnings could result in seri- ous injury or death in the event of a sudden stop, colli- sion or rollover.

WARNING

After adjusting the seat, always check that it is securely locked into place by attempting to move the seat forward or reverse without using the lock release lever. Sudden or unex- pected movement of the dri- ver's seat could cause you to lose control of the vehicle resulting in an accident.

WARNING

• Do not adjust the seat while wearing seat belts. Moving the seat cushion forward may cause strong pressure on the abdomen.

• Use extreme caution so that hands or other objects are not caught in the seat mechanisms while the seat is moving.

• Do not place a cigarette lighter on the floor or seat. When you operate the seat, gas may exit out of the lighter and cause a fire.

• Use extreme caution when picking small objects trapped under the seats or between the seat and the center con- sole. Your hands might be cut or injured by the sharp edges of the seats mechanism.
