!
WARNING:
o The fuel cap must be tightened at least
3 clicks, otherwise " " light will
illuminate.
o Gasoline vapors are dangerous. Before
refueling, always stop the engine and
never allow sparks or open flames near
the filler area. If you need to replace the
filler cap, use a genuine Hyundai re-
placement part.
o If you open the fuel filler cap during
high ambient temperatures, a slight
"pressure sound" may be heard. This is
normal and not a cause for concern.
Whenever you open the fuel filler cap,
turn it slowly.
HLC2016-2
!
o Make sure the fuel filler cap is replaced
and securely seated after fueling. Fail-
ure to replace or fully seat the fuel filler
cap will result in fuel vapors escaping
into the atmosphere and the check
engine "MIL" indicator illuminating.
o Do not "TOP-OFF" after the first nozzle
shut off when refueling.
o Automotive fuels are flammable/explo-
sive materials. When refueling, please
note the following guidelines carefully.
o Before touching the fuel nozzle or fuel
filler cap, have one's hands in contact
with metal parts away from the filler
neck to discharge static electricity.
o Do not get back in the vehicle while
refueling. Do not operate anything that
can produce static electricity. Static
electricity discharge can ignite fuel va-
pors resulting in explosion.
o When using a portable fuel container
be sure to place the container on the
ground while refueling. Static electric-
ity discharge from the container can
ignite fuel vapors causing a fire. While
starting refueling contact should be
maintained until the filling is complete.

get in, open the windows for a few minutes to
expel the hot air.
o When you are using the air conditioning
system, keep all windows closed to keep hot
air out.

air conditioner is not used regularly, run the
air conditioner once every month for a few
minutes. This will help circulate the lubri-
cants and keep your system in peak operat-
ing condition.
