accidentally locked in the trunk.
NEVER allow anyone to occupy
the trunk of the vehicle at any
time. If the trunk is partially or
totally latched and the person is
unable to get out, serious injury
or death could occur due to lack
of ventilation, exhaust fumes and
rapid heat build-up, or because of
exposure to cold weather condi-
tions. The trunk is also a highly
dangerous location in the event
of a crash because it is not a pro-
tected occupant space but is a
part of the vehicle's crush zone.
Your vehicle should be kept
locked and the Smart Key should
be kept out of the reach of chil-
dren. Parents should teach their
children about the dangers of
playing in trunks.

Gasoline is highly flammable and
explosive. Failure to follow these
guidelines may result in SERIOUS
INJURY or DEATH:
Read and follow all warnings
posted at the gas station.
Before refueling, note the loca-
tion of the Emergency Gasoline
Shut-Off, if available, at the gas
station.
Before touching the fuel nozzle,
you should eliminate the poten-
tial build-up of static electricity
by touching a metal part of the
vehicle, a safe distance away
from the fuel filler neck, nozzle, or
other gas source, with your bare
hand. (Continued)
WARNING
(Continued)
Do not use cellular phones while
refueling. Electric current and/or
electronic interference from cel-
lular phones can potentially
ignite fuel vapors and cause a
fire.
Do not get back into a vehicle
once you have begun refueling.
You can generate a build-up of
static electricity by touching, rub-
bing or sliding against any item
or fabric capable of producing
static electricity. Static electricity
discharge can ignite fuel vapors
causing a fire. If you must re-
enter the vehicle, you should
once again eliminate potentially
dangerous static electricity dis-
charge by touching a metal part
of the vehicle, away from the fuel
filler neck, nozzle or other gaso-
line source, with your bare hand.
When using an approved
portable fuel container, be sure to
place the container on the
ground prior to refueling. Static
electricity discharge from the
container can ignite fuel vapors
causing a fire.(Continued)
(Continued)Once refueling has begun, con-
tact between your bare hand and
the vehicle should be maintained
until the filling is complete.
Use only approved portable plastic
fuel containers designed to carry
and store gasoline.
When refueling, always move the
shift lever to the P (Park) posi-
tion, set the parking brake, and
place the ignition switch to the
LOCK/OFF position. Sparks pro-
duced by electrical components
related to the engine can ignite
fuel vapors causing a fire.
Do not use matches or a lighter
and do not smoke or leave a lit
cigarette in your vehicle while at
a gas station, especially during
refueling.
Do not over-fill or top-off your
vehicle tank, which can cause
gasoline spillage. (Continued)

Information
Make sure to refuel your vehicle according
to the "Fuel Requirements" suggested in
the Introduction chapter. Do not spill fuel on the exterior sur-
faces of the vehicle. Any type of fuel
spilled on painted surfaces may
damage the paint.
If the fuel filler cap requires replace- ment, use only a genuine HYUNDAI
cap or the equivalent specified for
your vehicle. An incorrect fuel filler
cap can result in a serious malfunc-
tion of the fuel system or emission
control system.
NOTICE
i
(Continued)
If a fire breaks out during refuel-
ing, leave the vicinity of the vehi-
cle, and immediately contact the
manager of the gas station and
then contact the local fire depart-
ment. Follow any safety instruc-
tions they provide.
If pressurized fuel sprays out, it
can cover your clothes or skin
and thus subject you to the risk
of fire and burns. Always remove
the fuel cap carefully and slowly.
If the cap is venting fuel or if you
hear a hissing sound, wait until
the condition stops before com-
pletely removing the cap.
Always check that the fuel cap is
installed securely to prevent fuel
spillage in the event of an acci-
dent.
