Gasoline engine

Unleaded

For Europe

For the optimal vehicle performance,

we recommend you use unleaded

gasoline which has 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 per-

formance reduction of the vehicle. (Do

not use methanol blended fuels)

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. (Do not use methanol

blended fuels)

Your new vehicle is designed to

obtain maximum performance with

UNLEADED FUEL, as well as mini-

mize exhaust emissions and spark

plug fouling.

NOTICE

• Do not "top off" after the noz-

zle automatically shuts off

when refueling.

• Always check that the fuel cap

is installed securely to pre-

vent fuel spillage in the event

of an accident.

WARNING

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 speci-

fied (We recommend that you

consult an authorized HYUNDAI

dealer for details.)

CAUTION

CAUTION indicates a hazardous

situation which, if not avoided,

could result in minor or moder-

ate injury.

Introduction

Leaded (if equipped)

For some countries, your vehicle is

designed to use leaded gasoline.

When you are going to use leaded

gasoline, we recommend that you

ask an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.

Octane rating of leaded gasoline is

same with unleaded one.

Gasoline containing alcohol and

methanol

Gasohol, a mixture of gasoline and

ethanol (also known as grain alco-

hol), and gasoline or gasohol con-

taining 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 dam-

age to the fuel system, engine control

system and emission control system.

Discontinue using gasohol of any

kind if drivability problems occur.

Vehicle damage or driveability prob-

lems 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.

Other fuels

Using fuel additives such as:

- Silicone fuel additive

- MMT (Magnanese, Mn) fuel additive

- Ferrocene (iron-based) fuel additive

- Other metallic-based fuel additives

may result in cylinder misfire, poor

acceleration, engine stalling, dam-

age to the catalyst, or abnormal cor-

rosion, and may cause damage to

the engine resulting in a reduction in

the overall life of the powertrain.

Damage to the fuel system or per-

formance problem caused by the

use of these fuels may not be cov-

ered by your New Vehicle Limited

Warranty.

NOTICE

Never use gasohol which con-

tains methanol. Discontinue

use of any gasohol product

which impairs drivability.

CAUTION

F8

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 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, engine

control system and emission control

system.

Fuel Additives

HYUNDAI recommends that you use

unleaded gasoline which has an

octane rating of RON (Research

Octane Number) 95 / AKI (Anti Knock

Index) 91 or higher (for Europe) or

Octane Rating of RON (Research

Octane Number) 91 / AKI (Anti-Knock

Index) 87 or higher (except Europe).

For customers who do not use good

quality gasolines including fuel addi-

tives regularly, and have problems

starting or the engine does not run

smoothly, one bottle of additives added

to the fuel tank at every 15,000km (for

Europe) / 10,000km (except Europe).

Additives are available from your

authorized HYUNDAI dealer 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 regarding

registration and insurance.

• Determine that acceptable fuel is

available.

Your New Vehicle Limited

Warranty may not cover dam-

age to the fuel system and any

performance problems that are

caused by the use of fuels con-

taining methanol or fuels con-

taining MTBE (Methyl Tertiary

Butyl Ether) over 15.0% vol.

(Oxygen Content 2.7% weight.)

CAUTION

Diesel engine

Diesel fuel

Diesel engine must be operated only

on commercially available diesel fuel

that complies with EN 590 or compa-

rable 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 dam-

age to the engine and fuel system.

The use of non-approved fuels and /

or fuel additives will result in a limita-

tion 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 com-

pletely purged to permit restarting.

Biodiesel

Commercially supplied Diesel blends

of no more than 7% biodiesel, com-

monly 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), veg-

etable oil methyl ester (VME) etc. or

mixing diesel exceeding 7% with

biodiesel will cause increased wear or

damage to the engine and fuel sys-

tem. Repair or replacement of worn or

damaged components due to the use

of non approved fuels will not be cov-

ered by the manufactures warranty.

F9

Introduction

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 jam-

ming the injection pump and

damaging the engine.

CAUTION

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 addi-

tives, it can cause the DPF sys-

tem to be damaged and white

smoke can be emitted.

CAUTION

• Never use any fuel, whether

diesel, B7 biodiesel or other-

wise, that fails to meet the lat-

est petroleum industry speci-

fication.

• Never use any fuel additives

or treatments that are not rec-

ommended or approved by

the vehicle manufacturer.

CAUTION

F10

Introduction

This vehicle should not be modified.

Modification of your vehicle could

affect its performance, safety or

durability and may even violate gov-

ernmental safety and emissions reg-

ulations.

In addition, damage or performance

problems resulting from any modifi-

cation may not be covered under

warranty.

• If you use unauthorized electronic

devices, it may cause the vehicle to

operate abnormally, wire damage,

battery discharge and fire. For your

safety, do not use unauthorized

electronic devices.

By following a few simple precautions

for the first 1,000 km (600 miles) you

may add to the performance, econo-

my 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 need-

ed to properly break-in the engine.

• Avoid hard stops, except in emer-

gencies, to allow the brakes to seat

properly.

• Don't tow a trailer during the first

2,000 km (1,200 miles) of operation.

HYUNDAI promotes an environmen-

tally sound treatment for end of life

vehicles and offers to take back your

HYUNDAI end of life vehicles in

accordance with the European Union

(EU) End of Life Vehicles Directive.

You can get detailed information

from your national HYUNDAI home-

page.
