The use of leaded fuel in this vehicle will result in irreversible pollution of the catalyst element.Such pollution will prevent correct operation ofthe catalyst and give rise to increased operatingtemperatures leading to the catalyst elementmelting and restricting the exhaust flow alongwith an increase in exhaust emission levels. CAUTION: The vehicle warranty will not extend to dam-age arising from the use of incorrect fuels. Overseas Operation: When the vehicle is to be operated overseas, the vehicle operator should establish that a suitablefuel for satisfactory operation of the vehicle isavailable.
B020A01S-EAT RUNNING INThe longevity and performance of the vehicle are greatly affected by the care exercised during thefirst 1,000 miles of motoring. Because of modernmanufacturing techniques, rigid guidelines re-garding maximum road speeds have becomeunnecessary. However, certain precautionsshould be observed in order to obtain the bestpossible performance and useful life from thevehicle.
1) Do not race the engine without a load (i.e
revving the engine in neutral).
2) During the first 500 miles the maximum en- gine speed should be restricted to 3,000 rpmand gradually increased thereafter.
3) Avoid prolonged constant speed operation. The internal components of the engine willbecome more quickly run in if the operationspeed is varied during the running in period.
4) Never allow the engine to labour. Use the gearbox freely and avoid large throttle open-ings when the engine speed is below 1,500rpm.
5) Avoid rapid acceleration and maximum throttle openings.
6) Avoid harsh braking during the first 100 miles of urban motoring or 1,000 miles ofmotorway driving to allow the friction facingsof the brake pads and shoes to bed againstthe discs and drums properly.
7) No trailer towing should be undertaken dur- ing the running in period.

B010E01A-EAT PETROLS FOR CLEANER AIR To help contribute to cleaner air, Hyundai recom- mends that you use petrols treated with deter-gent additives, which help to prevent depositformation in the engine. These petrols will helpthe engines run cleaner and the Emission Con-trol System performance.
Unleaded fuel with a Reasearch Octane Number(RON) of 91 or higher must be used in thisvehicle.To prevent accidental charging of the fuel tankwith leaded fuel, a small diameter filler neckalong with a restrictor flap are fitted to ensure thatonly unleaded fuel pump nozzles may enter thefiller neck. However, care must be exercisedwhen refuelling the vehicle tank from jerry cansor by means of a funnel that the fuel being usedis unleaded.
B010A01A-EAT FUEL RECOMMENDATIONS THIS VEHICLE MUST ONLY BE OPERATED WITH UNLEADED FUEL.SERIOUS DAMAGE WILL RESULT FROMTHE USE OF LEADED FUEL.

DOOR AJAR WARNING LAMP
The door ajar warning lamp indicates that a door is not correctly closed. Ensure that the lamp isextinguished prior to driving the vehicle.
SB210P1-E
LOW FUEL LEVEL WARNING LAMP
The low fuel warning lamp serves to warn the driver that the remaining fuel quantity is approxi-mately 9 litres and that the vehicle should berefuelled. If the vehicle is driven for an extendedperiod with the low fuel warning lamp illuminatedthere exists a possibility that misfiring due to fuel
becoming defective, approximately fifty per centof the normal braking performance will be avail-able.If failure of one of the circuits occurs, the requiredamount of pedal effort, pedal travel and stoppingdistance will be increased. Use of the gearbox isrecommended to assist in bringing the vehicle torest. The vehicle must not be driven once brakefailure has occurred until the system has beenrepaired and is functioning normally.The braking system employs a vacuum servo inorder that the pedal efforts are reduced. Powerfor the servo is derived from the engine andtherefore, in the event of the engine stopping orthe vehicle being towed, pedal efforts will besubstantially increased. SB210M1-E
CHARGING SYSTEM WARNING LAMP
The charging system warning lamp should illumi- nate when the ignition switch is turned to the"ON" position and should be extinguished whenthe engine is started. If the lamp fails to illuminatewhen the ignition is turned "ON" or fails to extin-guish after starting the engine, the nearestHyundai dealer should be contacted. If the lampilluminates whilst the vehicle is being driven, stopthe vehicle as soon as it is safe to do so andcheck the condition of the generator drive belt. Ifthe belt is in place and the tension is satisfactory,the advice of a Hyundai dealer should be sought.
B260H01GK-EAT PARKING BRAKE/BRAKE FLUID LEVEL WARNING LAMP
CAUTION: In the event of problems being suspected with the braking system, the advice of thenearest Hyundai dealer must be sought be-fore the vehicle is driven. Driving the vehiclewith either an electrical or hydraulic brakingsystem defect may be dangerous, resultingin accident or personal injury. Warning lamp operation The parking brake/brake fluid level warning lamp will be illuminated whenever the ignition switch isturned to the "ON" or "START" position when theparking brake is applied and must be extin-guished in a three seconds after the enginestarts.If the warning lamp fails to extinguish or illumi-nates at any other time, the vehicle must bebrought to rest in a safe location and the level ofbrake fluid in the reservoir checked. If the fluidlevel is incorrect, fluid conforming to DOT 3 orDOT 4 specifications should be added. If, aftercorrecting the brake fluid level, the warning lampcontinues to be illuminated, the advice of thenearest Hyundai dealer must be sought beforethe vehicle is driven again.The Hyundai Coupe is equipped with a diago-nally split dual braking system which will ensurethat in the event of one of the brake circuits SB210N2-E
HATCHBACK DOOR OPEN WARNING LAMP
The hatchback door warning lamp indicates when the hatchback door is open or is not fully closed.Ensure that the lamp has extinguished prior todriving the vehicle.CAUTION: If the drive belt (generator belt) is loose,broken, or missing while the vehicle is driv-ing, there may be a serious malfunction, en-gine could overheat because this belt alsodrives the water pump.
