B010A01A-GAT FUEL RECOMMENDATIONS Use Unleaded Gasoline Unleaded gasoline with a Pump Octane Rating of 87 (Research Octane Number 91) or highermust be used in Hyundai vehicle. If leaded gaso-line is used, it will cause the catalytic converter tobecome ineffective and the emission controlsystem to malfunction.This can also result in increased maintenanceexpense. To avoid accidental use of leaded fuel,the larger nozzle used with leaded gasoline atservice stations can not be inserted into fuel tankopening of Hyundai vehicle. NOTE:
o For some countries, Hyundai vehicles are
designed to use leaded gasoline. Whenyou are going to use leaded gasoline, askto Hyundai dealer whether leaded gaso-line in your vehicle is available or not.
o Octane Rating of leaded gasoline is same with unleaded one.
B010B01A-AAT What About Gasohol? Gasohol (a mixture of 90% unleaded gasoline and 10% ethanol or grain alcohol) may be usedin your Hyundai. However, if your engine devel-ops drive ability problems, the use of 100%unleaded gasoline is recommended. Fuels withunspecified quantities of alcohol, or alcoholsother than ethanol, should not be used. B010D01S-AAT Do not Use Methanol Fuels containing methanol (wood alcohol) should not be used in your Hyundai. This type of fuel canreduce vehicle performance and damage com-ponents of the fuel system. CAUTION: Your Hyundai's New Vehicle Limited War-ranty may not cover damage to the fuel sys-tem and performance problems that arecaused by the use of methanol or fuels con-taining methanol. B010E01A-AAT Gasolines for Cleaner AirTo help contribute to cleaner air, Hyundai recom- mends that you use gasolines treated with deter-gent additives, which help prevent deposit for-mation in the engine. These gasolines will helpthe engine run cleaner and the Emission ControlSystem performance. B010F01A-AAT Operation in Foreign Countries If you are going to drive your Hyundai in another country, be sure to:
o Observe all regulations regarding registra-
tion and insurance.
o Determine that acceptable fuel is available. B020A01X-GAT BREAKING IN YOUR NEW HYUNDAI During the First 2,000 km (1,200 Miles) No formal "break-in" procedure is required with your new Hyundai. However, you can contributeto the economical operation and durability of yourHyundai by observing the following recommen-
dations during the first 2,000 km (1,200 miles).
o Don't drive faster than 88 km/h (55 mph).
o While driving, keep your engine speed (rpm,
or revolutions per minute) between 2000 and4000 rpm.
o Use moderate acceleration. Don't start quickly or depress the accelerator pedal fully.

The SRS service reminder indicator (SRI) on the instrument panel will blink for about 6 secondsafter the ignition key is turned to the "ON"position or after the engine is started, after whichthe SRI should go out. The airbag modules are located both in thecenter of the steering wheel and in the frontpassenger's panel above the glove box. Whenthe SRSCM detects a considerable impact to thefront of the vehicle, it will automatically deploy theairbags.
The SRS consists of the following components:
- Driver's Airbag Module
- Passenger's Airbag Module
- SRS Service Reminder Indicator (SRI)
- SRS Control Module (SRSCM)
The SRSCM continually monitors all elementswhile the ignition is "ON" to determine if a frontalor near-frontal impact is severe enough to re-quire airbag deployment. Upon deployment, tear seams molded directlyinto the pad covers will separate under pressurefrom the expansion of the airbags. Further open-ing of the covers then allows full inflation of theairbags. A fully inflated airbag in combination with a prop- erly worn seat belt slows the driver's or thepassenger's forward motion, thus reducing therisk of head or chest injury. After complete inflation, the airbag immediately starts deflating, enabling the driver to maintainforward visibility. CAUTION: When installing a container of liquid air fresh-ener inside a vehicle, do not place it near theinstrument cluster nor on the instrument panelpad surface. If there is any leakage from theair freshener onto these areas (Instrument

1- 16 to the body structure, can adversely affect SRS performance and lead to possibleinjury.
o For cleaning the airbag pad covers, use only a soft, dry cloth or one which hasbeen moistened with plain water. Solventsor cleaners could adversely affect theairbag covers and proper deployment ofthe system.
o No objects should be placed over or near the airbag modules on the steering wheel,instrument panel, and the front passen-ger's panel above the glove box, becauseany such object could cause harm if thevehicle is in a crash severe enough tocause the airbags to inflate.
o If the airbags inflate, they must be re- placed by an authorized Hyundai dealer.
o Do not tamper with or disconnect SRS wiring, or other components of the SRSsystem. Doing so could result in injury,due to accidental firing of the airbags orby rendering the SRS inoperative.
o Do not install a child restraint system in the front passenger seat position.A child restraint system must never beplaced in the front seat. The infant or childcould be severely injured by an airbagdeployment in case of an accident.
o If components of the airbag system must be discarded, or if the vehicle must bescrapped, certain safety precautions mustbe observed. Your Hyundai dealer knowsthese precautions and can give you the

cluster, instrument panel pad or air ventila- tor), it may damage these parts. If the liquidfrom the air freshener does leak onto theseareas, wash them with water immediately. WARNING:
o When the SRS is activated, there may be a loud noise and fine dust will be released through out the vehicle. These conditionsare normal and are not hazardous. How-ever, the fine dust generated during airbagdeployment may cause skin irritation. Besure to wash your hands and face thor-oughly with lukewarm water and a mildsoap after an accident in which the airbagswere deployed.
o The SRS can function only when the igni- tion key is in the "ON" position. If the SRSSRI does not come on, or continuouslyremains on, after flashing for about 6 sec-onds when the ignition key is turned tothe "ON" position, or after the engine isstarted, or comes on while driving, theSRS is not working properly. If this oc-curs, have your vehicle immediately in-spected by your Hyundai dealer.
o Before you replace a fuse or disconnect a battery terminal, turn the ignition key tothe "LOCK" position or remove the igni-tion key. Never remove or replace the airbag related fuse(s) when the ignition keyis in the "ON" position. Failure to heed thiswarning will cause the SRS SRI to illumi-nate. B240C01Y-GAT SRS CareThe SRS is virtually maintenance-free and so there are no parts you can safely service byyourself. The entire SRS system must be in-spected by an authorized Hyundai dealer in 10years after the date that the vehicle was manu-factured. Any work on the SRS system, such as removing, installing, repairing, or any work on the steeringwheel must be performed by a qualified Hyundaitechnician. Improper handling of the SRS sys-tem may result in serious personal injury. WARNING:
o Extreme Hazard! Do not use a rearward
facing child restraint on a seat protectedby an airbag in front of it!
o Modification to SRS components or wir- ing, including the addition of any kind ofbadges to the pad covers or modifications

Snowy or Icy Conditions Snowy or Icy Conditions
Snowy or Icy Conditions
Snowy or Icy Conditions
To drive your vehicle in deep snow, it may be
necessary to use snow tires or to install tirechains on your tires. If snow tires are needed,
it is necessary to select tires equivalent in size
and type to the original equipment tires.
o Be sure that the wheels are aligned correct-
ly. Improper alignment can result from hittingcurbs or driving too fast over irregular sur-faces. Poor alignment causes faster tirewear and may also result in other problemsas well as greater fuel consumption.
o Keep your car in good condition. For better fuel economy and reduced maintenancecosts, maintain your car in accordance withthe maintenance schedule in Section 5. Ifyou drive your car in severe conditions,more frequent maintenance is required (seeSection 5 for details).
o Keep your car clean. For maximum service, your Hyundai should be kept clean and freeof corrosive materials. It is especially impor-tant that mud, dirt, ice, etc. not be allowed toaccumulate on the underside of the car. Thisextra weight can result in increased fuelconsumption and also contribute to corro-sion.
o Travel lightly. Don't carry unnecessary weight in your car. Weight reduces fuel economy.
o Don't let the engine idle longer than neces- sary. If you are waiting (and not in traffic),turn off your engine and restart only whenyou're ready to go.
o Remember, your Hyundai does not require extended warm-up. As soon as the engine isrunning smoothly, you can drive away. Invery cold weather, however, give your en-gine a slightly longer warm-up period.
o Don't "lug" or "over-rev" the engine. Lugging is driving too slowly in too high a gear

You can save fuel and get more kilometers from
your car if you follow these suggestions:
o Drive smoothly. Accelerate at a moderate rate. Don't make "jack-rabbit" starts or full- throttle shifts and maintain a steady cruisingspeed. Don't race between stoplights. Try toadjust your speed to that of the other trafficso you don't have to change speeds unnec-essarily. Avoid heavy traffic whenever pos-sible. Always maintain a safe distance fromother vehicles so you can avoid unneces-sary braking. This also reduces brake wear.
o Drive at a moderate speed. The faster you drive, the more fuel your car uses. Driving ata moderate speed, especially on the high-way, is one of the most effective ways toreduce fuel consumption.
o Don't "ride" the brake or clutch pedal. This can increase fuel consumption and alsoincrease wear on these components. In ad-dition, driving with your foot resting on thebrake pedal may cause the brakes to over-heat, which reduces their effectiveness andmay lead to more serious consequences.
o Take care of your tires. Keep them inflated to the recommended pressure. Incorrect in-flation, either too much or too little, results inunnecessary tire wear. Check the tire pres-sures at least once a month.

Failure to do so may adversely affect the safety
and handling of your car. Speeding, rapid accel-eration, sudden brake applications, and sharpturns are potentially very hazardous practices.During deceleration, use engine braking to thefullest extent. Sudden brake applications onsnowy or icy roads may cause skids to occur.
You need to keep sufficient distance betweenthe vehicle in front and your vehicle. Also, applythe brake gently.
It should be noted that installing tire chains on
the tire will provide a greater driving force, butwill not prevent side skids.
