2FUEL RECOMMENDATIONS
B010A02A-EAT THIS VEHICLE MUST ONLY BE OP- ERATED WITH UNLEADED FUEL.SERIOUS DAMAGE WILL RESULTFROM THE USE OF LEADED FUEL. For the optimal vehicle performance, we recommend you to use unleaded gasoline with an octane rating of RON(Research Octane Number) 95 /AKI (Anti Knock Index) 91 or higher. To prevent accidental charging of the fuel tank with leaded fuel, a smalldiameter filler neck along with a restrictor flap are fitted to ensure that only unleaded fuel pump nozzles mayenter the filler neck. However, care must be exercised when refuelling the vehicle tank from fuel cans or by meansof a funnel that the fuel being used is unleaded. The use of leaded fuel in this vehiclewill result in irreversible pollution of the catalyst element. Such pollution will prevent correct operation of the cata-lyst and give rise to increased operating temperatures leading to the catalyst element melting and restricting the ex-haust flow along with an increase in exhaust emission levels.

UNLEADED
FUEL ONLY ZB010C1-E "Alternative fuels" Fuels which contain methanol or etha- nol must not be used. ZB010F2-A Fuels for Cleaner Air To help contribute to cleaner air, Hyundai recommends that you use fuels treated with detergent additives, which help to prevent deposit forma-tion in the engine. These fuels will help the engines run cleaner and increase the Emission Control System perfor-mance.

o The vehicle meets all local regula-
tions with respect to insurance, specifications etc..

mount importance. An excessively high or low oil level may result inirreparable damage being sustained by the engine. The engine oil level must be checked on a daily basis orwhenever the vehicle is refuelled, whichever occurs sooner.
In addition, it is imperative that only
an approved grade and specificationof oil is used to avoid the possibility of serious engine damage and prema-ture wear. The use of "budget price" oil is a false economy that must be avoided if the maximum reliability anduseful life is to be obtained from the vehicle.
