HOW TO USE THIS MANUAL
We want to help you get the greatest possible driving pleasure from your vehicle.
Your Owner’s Manual can assist you in many ways. We strongly recommend that you
read the entire manual. In order to minimise the chance of death or injury, you must
read the DANGER, WARNING and CAUTION sections in the manual.
Illustrations complement the words in this manual to best explain how to enjoy your
vehicle. By reading your manual, you will learn about features, important safety
information, and driving tips under various road conditions.
The general layout of the manual is provided in the Table of Contents. Use the
index when looking for a specific area or subject; it has an alphabetical listing of all
information in your manual.
Sections: This manual has 9 chapters plus an index. Each section begins with a brief
list of contents so you can tell at a glance if that section has the information you want.
SAFETY MESSAGES
Your safety, and the safety of others, is very important. This Owner’s Manual provides
you with many safety precautions and operating procedures. This information alerts
you to potential hazards that may hurt you or others, as well as damage to your
vehicle.
Safety messages found on vehicle labels and in this manual describe these hazards
and what to do to avoid or reduce the risks.
Warnings and instructions contained in this manual are for your safety. Failure to
follow safety warnings and instructions can lead to serious injury or death.

Petrol engine
Unleaded
For the optimal vehicle performance, we recommend you use unleaded petrol which
has an octane rating of RON (Research Octane Number) 95 / AKI (Anti Knock Index)
91 or higher. You may use unleaded petrol with an octane rating of RON 91-94 / AKI
87-90 but it may result in slight performance reduction of the vehicle. (Do not use
methanol blended fuels)
Your new vehicle is designed to obtain maximum performance with UNLEADED FUEL,
as well as minimise exhaust emissions and spark plug fouling.
CAUTION
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 specified (We recommend that you consult a HYUNDAI authorised repairer for
details.)
WARNING

[Do not “top off” after the nozzle automatically shuts off when refuelling.

[Always check that the fuel cap is installed securely to prevent fuel spillage in the
event of an accident.

01
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 vapour lock or hard starting.
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.)
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 petrol 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 petrols including fuel additives
regularly, and have problems starting or the engine does not run smoothly, one
bottle of additive added to the fuel tank according to the maintenance schedule is
recommended.
Additives are available from your HYUNDAI authorised repairer 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:

Maintenance
Wheel replacement
When replacing the metal wheels for any
reason, make sure the new wheels are
equivalent to the original factory units in
diameter, rim width and offset.
Tyre traction
Tyre traction can be reduced if you drive
on worn tyres, tyres that are improperly
inflated or on slippery road surfaces.
Tyres should be replaced when tread
wear indicators appear. To reduce the
possibility of losing control, slow down
whenever there is rain, snow or ice on
the road.
Tyre maintenance
In addition to proper inflation, correct
wheel alignment helps to decrease tyre
wear. If you find a tyre is worn unevenly,
have your dealer check the wheel
alignment.
When you have new tyres installed,
make sure they are balanced. This will
increase vehicle ride comfort and tyre
life. Additionally, a tyre should always
be rebalanced if it is removed from the
wheel.
Tyre sidewall labelling
This information identifies and describes
the fundamental characteristics of
the tyre and also provides the tyre
identification number (TIN) for safety
standard certification. The TIN can be
used to identify the tyre in case of a
recall.
