Introduction
Your new vehicle is designed to use only unleaded fuel having a pump octane number ((R+M)/2) of 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.
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 drivability 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.
FUEL REQUIREMENTS
CAUTION
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.
• Tighten the cap until it clicks, oth­erwise the Check Engine light will illuminate.
• Always check that the fuel cap is installed securely to prevent fuel spillage in the event of an acci­dent.
Introduction
41
"E85" fuel is an alternative fuel com­prised of 85 percent ethanol and 15 per­cent gasoline, and is manufactured exclusively for use in Flexible Fuel Vehicles. “E85” is not compatible with your vehicle. Use of “E85” may result in poor engine performance and damage to your vehicle's engine and fuel system. HYUNDAI recommends that customers do not use fuel with an ethanol content exceeding 10 percent.
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 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.
Gasolines for cleaner air
To help contribute to cleaner air, HYUNDAI recommends 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.
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.)
CAUTION
Never use gasohol which contains methanol. Discontinue use of any gasohol product which impairs dri­vability.
CAUTION
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
As with other vehicles of this type, failure to operate this vehicle correctly may result in loss of control, an accident or vehicle rollover.
Specific design characteristics (higher ground clearance, track, etc.) give this vehicle a higher center of gravity than other types of vehicles. In other words they are not designed for cornering at the same speeds as conventional 2-wheel drive vehicles. Avoid sharp turns or abrupt maneuvers. Again, failure to oper­ate this vehicle correctly 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.
No special break-in period is needed. By following a few simple precautions for the first 600 miles (1,000 km) 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 1,200 miles (2,000 km) of operation.
VEHICLE BREAK-IN PROCESSVEHICLE HANDLING
INSTRUCTIONS
Introduction
61
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 systems 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 pas-
senger 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 traveling.
These data can help provide a better understanding of the circumstances in which crashes and injuries occur. NOTE: EDR data are recorded by your vehicle only if a nontrivial 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 parties, such as law enforcement, could combine the EDR data with the type of personally identifying data routinely acquired during a crash investigation.
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 manufacture, 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
WARNING - Driver’s seat
• Never attempt to adjust the 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 10 inches (250 mm) away from the steering wheel.
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 spring forward resulting in accidental injury to a person struck by the seatback.
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 - Driver respon-
sibility for passengers
Riding in a vehicle with the 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. 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.
Safety features of your vehicle
43
(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 - 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)
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.

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.
Forward and backward adjustment
The headrest may be adjusted forward to 3 different positions by pulling the head­rest forward to the desired detent. To adjust the headrest to it’s furthest back­wards position, pull it fully forward to the farthest position and release it. Adjust the headrest so that it properly supports the head and neck.
OLM039303N
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.
OLM039010
39
Safety features of your vehicle
Adjusting the height up and down
To raise the headrest, pull it up to the desired position (1). To lower the head­rest, push and hold the release button (2) on the headrest support and lower the headrest to the desired position (3).
Removal
To remove the headrest, raise it as far as it can go then press the release button (1) while pulling upward (2).
To reinstall the headrest, put the head­rest poles (3) into the holes while press­ing the release button (1). Then adjust it to the appropriate height.
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 minimize neck injuries.
OLM039011 OLM039012 HNF2041-1
WARNING
Make sure the headrest locks in position after adjusting it to proper­ly protects the occupants.
