it clockwise until it “clicks” once.
This indicates that the cap is
securely tightened.
2. Close the fuel filler door (1) and push it lightly and make sure that it
is securely closed. Petrol is highly flammable and
explosive. Failure to follow these
guidelines may result in SERIOUS
INJURY or DEATH: •
Read and follow all warnings
posted at the gas station.
•
Before refueling, note the loca-
tion of the Emergency Petrol
Shut-Off, if available, at the gas
station.
(Continued)
(Continued)•
Before touching the fuel nozzle,
you should eliminate the poten-
tial build-up of static electricity
by touching a metal part of the
vehicle, a safe distance away
from the fuel filler neck, nozzle,
or other gas source, with your
bare hand.
•
Do not use cellular phones while
refueling. Electric current and/or
electronic interference from cel-
lular phones can potentially
ignite fuel vapors and cause a
fire.
•
Do not get back into a vehicle
once you have begun refueling.
You can generate a build-up of
static electricity by touching, rub-
bing or sliding against any item or
fabric capable of producing static
electricity. Static electricity dis-
charge can ignite fuel vapors
causing a fire.
(Continued)
(Continued)If you must re-enter the vehicle,
you should once again eliminate
potentially dangerous static elec-
tricity discharge by touching a
metal part of the vehicle, away
from the fuel filler neck, nozzle or
other petrol source, with your
bare hand.•
When using an approved
portable fuel container, be sure
to place the container on the
ground prior to refueling. Static
electricity discharge from the
container can ignite fuel vapors
causing a fire. Once refueling
has begun, contact between
your bare hand and the vehicleshould be maintained until the
filling is complete.
•
Use only approved portable plastic
fuel containers designed to carry
and store petrol.

WARNING

)'#10*30-30.2+3%.,/3(21+2"1,/2*3!-$&3EElectric power steering (EPS)The system assists you with steering
the vehicle. If the engine is off or if
the power steering system becomes
inoperative, the vehicle may still be
steered, but it will require increased
steering effort.
Also, the steering effort becomes
heavier as the vehicle’s speed
increases and becomes lighter as
the vehicle’s speed decreases for
better control of the steering wheel.
Should you notice any change in the
effort required to steer during normal
vehicle operation, we recommend
that the system be checked by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
If the Electric Power Steering
System does not operate normally,
the warning light ( ) will illuminate
on the instrument cluster. The steer-
ing wheel may become difficult to
control or operate. Take your vehicle
to an authorized HYUNDAI dealer
and have the system checked as
soon as possible.
Information
The following symptoms may occur
during normal vehicle operation:
The steering effort may be high
immediately after placing the igni-
tion switch in the ON position.
This happens as the system per-
forms the EPS system diagnostics.
When the diagnostics is completed,
the steering wheel will return to its
normal condition.
A click noise may be heard from the EPS relay after the ignition switch is
placed to the ON or LOCK/OFF
position.
Motor noise may be heard when the vehicle is at stop or at a low driving
speed.
When you operate the steering wheel in low temperature, abnormal
noise may occur. If temperature
rises, the noise will disappear. This
is a normal condition.i

Pull down the lock-release lever (1) on
the steering wheel column and adjust

your face. Make sure you can see the
instrument panel warning lights and
gauges.
After adjusting, pull up the lock-
release lever (4) to lock the steering
wheel in place. Push the steering
wheel both up and down to be cer-
tain it is locked in position. Always
adjust the position of the steering
wheel before driving.
HornTo sound the horn, press the area
indicated by the horn symbol on your
steering wheel (see illustration). The
horn will operate only when this area
is pressed.Do not strike the horn severely to
operate it, or hit it with your fist. Do
not press on the horn with a sharp-
pointed object.NOTICE

IIf the gauge pointer moves beyond
the normal range area toward the “H”
position, it indicates overheating that
may damage the engine.
Do not continue driving with an over-
heated engine. If your vehicle over-
heats, refer to “If the Engine
Overheats” in chapter 6.
Fuel GaugeThis gauge indicates the approxi-
mate amount of fuel remaining in the
fuel tank.
Information
The fuel tank capacity is given in chapter 8.
The fuel gauge is supplemented by a low fuel warning light, which will
illuminate when the fuel tank is
nearly empty.
On inclines or curves, the fuel gauge pointer may fluctuate or the low fuel
warning light may come on earlier
than usual due to the movement of
fuel in the tank.i
NOTICENever remove the radiator cap
when the engine is hot. The
engine coolant is under pressure
and could cause severe burns.
Wait until the engine is cool before
adding coolant to the reservoir.
