light Hyundai Equus 2016 Owner's Manual

Your vehicle is designed to maximize
its driving performance as well as to
minimize exhaust emissions and
spark plug fouling, when being refu-
eled with UNLEADED FUEL.
Your vehicle is designed to use only
the unleaded fuel having a Pump
Octane number ((R+M)/2) of 87
(Research Octane Number 91) or
higher.
To further improve your vehicle per-
formance, premium unleaded fuel
having a Pump Octane number
((R+M)/2) of 91 (Research Octane
Number 96) or higher is recommend-
ed. (Do not use methanol blended
fuels.)Gasoline containing alcohol andmethanol
Gasohol, a mixture of gasoline and
ethanol (also known as grain alco-
hol), is on sale along with or instead
of leaded or unleaded gasoline.
Do not use gasohol, of which the
ethanol percentage is 10% or more.
Also, do not use gasoline or gasohol
containing any methanol. Either of
these fuels may cause drivability
problems, including hard starting,
rough running before the engine
warm-up, illumination of the
Malfunction Indicator Light and dam-
age to the fuel system, engine con-
trol system and emission control sys-
tem.
Stop using gasohol of any kind, if a
drivability problem occurs.
The manufacturer's warranty does
not cover vehicle damage or a dri-
vability problem, which is caused by
one of the followings:
1. Gasohol, of which the ethanol per-
centage is 10% or more
2. Gasoline or gasohol, containing methanol
3. Leaded fuel or leaded gasohol

Front seat adjustment
The front seat position can be adjust-
ed by pressing the control switches
on the doors. Before driving, adjust
the seat position, as desired, so as to
easily control the steering wheel,
pedals and instrument-panel but-
tons.
The power seat is operated byelectric motors. Pause the motor
operation after each seat-position
adjustment. Excessive motor
operation may damage the elec-
tric equipment.
The operation of a power seat consumes a large amount of elec-
tric power. To prevent unneces-
sary battery drain, when the
engine is turned OFF, do not
adjust the power seat longer than
necessary.
Do not press two power seat con- trol switches or more at the same
time. Doing so may fail the electric
motor or components.
NOTICE
2-4
Safety system of your vehicle
Do not adjust the seat while fastening a seat belt. Moving
the seat cushion forward may
apply strong pressure on the
abdomen.
While adjusting the seat posi- tion, use extreme caution not
to caught hands or other
objects inside the seat com-
ponents.
Do not leave a cigarette lighter on the floor mat or
seat. The operation of seat
adjustment may leak gas 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 seat mechanism.
WARNING
Do not adjust the seat position,
while fastening a seat belt.
Moving the seat cushion forward
may apply strong pressure on the
abdomen.
CAUTION
The power seat is operable,
even when the ignition is OFF.
Therefore, children should
never be left unattended in the
vehicle.
CAUTION

Safety system of your vehicle
Any modifications or additions should not be done by a driver.
Such modifications or addi-
tions may make the seat belt
assembly slack, and the seat
belt assembly may not firmly
and tightly tighten.
When fastening a seat belt, be careful not to latch your seat
belt in a buckle of other seats.
It is very dangerous, and you
may not be properly protected
by the seat belt.
Do not unfasten the seat belt, or do not repeatedly fasten
and unfasten the seat belt,
while driving. This may result
in loss of control, and an acci-
dent, causing death, serious
injury, or property damage.
When fastening a seat belt, make sure that it is not fas-
tened over any hard or fragile
object.
Before latching a seatbelt, make sure that there is nothing
inside a buckle, not to block the
mechanism. Otherwise, a seat
belt may not be securely fas-
tened.

Seat belt warning (for front passenger's seat)
To remind the front passenger, the
front passenger's seat belt warning
light will flash, whenever you turn ON
the ignition switch regardless of belt
fastening. When the passenger's
seat belt is unfastened, when the
vehicle drives over 6 mph (10 km/h),
and when occupant presence is
detected, the passenger's seat belt
warning light will flash until being fas-
tened.
3-point system with emergencylocking retractor
To fasten your seat belt:
Pull the belt webbing out of the
retractor and insert the metal tab (1)
into the buckle (2). It will "click" when
the tab locks into the buckle. The
seat belt automatically adjusts to the
proper length only after the lap por-
tion of the belt is manually adjusted
so that it fits snugly around your
body. If you lean forward slowly and
comfortably, the belt will extend and
move with you. If there is a sudden
stop or impact, the belt will be
locked. It will be also locked if you try
to lean forward too quickly.
Information
When a seat belt is not smoothly
stretched from the retractor, pull it
hard and release. After this, the seat
belt can be smoothly stretched.
