Closing the fuel filler door
1. To install the fuel tank cap, turn itclockwise until it "clicks" one time.
2. Close the fuel filler door until it is latched securely.
Information
 Tighten the cap until it clicks once, otherwise the fuel cap open warning
indicator light will illuminate.
 There may be an intermittent noise near the refueling hole while the
engine is idling if the fuel cap is not
closed securely. This occurs normal-
ly with the OBD system.
 When refueling on unleveled ground, the fuel gauge may not
point to the F position. It is not a
malfunction. If you move your vehi-
cle to a level ground, the fuel gauge
will move to the full position.
i
Do not get back into a vehicle
once you have begun refuel-
ing. You can generate a build-
up of static electricity by
touching, rubbing 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 discharge by touch-
ing a metal part of the vehicle,
away from the fuel filler neck,nozzle or other gasoline
source, with your bare hand.
When using an approved
portable fuel container, besure to place the container on
the ground prior to refueling.
Static electricity discharge
from the container can ignite
fuel vapors causing a fire. Once refueling has begun,
contact between your bare
hand and the vehicle shouldbe maintained until the filling
is complete.
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
location of the Emergency
Gasoline Shut-Off, if available,at the gas station.
Before touching the fuel noz-
zle, you should eliminate the
potential build-up of static
electricity by touching a metal
part of the vehicle, a safe dis-
tance away from the fuel filler
neck, nozzle, or other gas
source, with your bare hand.
Do not use cellular phones
while refueling. Electric cur-
rent and/or electronic interfer-
ence from cellular phones can
potentially ignite fuel vapors
and cause a fire.

Information
Make sure to refuel your vehicle
according to the "Fuel Requirements"
suggested in the Introduction chapter.
Do not spill fuel on the exterior surfaces of the vehicle. Any type of fuel spilled on painted sur-
faces may damage the paint.
If the fuel filler cap requires replacement, use only a genuine
HYUNDAI cap or the equivalent
specified for your vehicle. Anincorrect fuel filler cap canresult in a serious malfunctionof the fuel system or emission
control system.
NOTICE
iIf 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 pre-
vent fuel spillage in the eventof an accident.
Use only approved portable
plastic fuel containers designed
to carry and store gasoline.
When refueling, always move
the shift lever to the P (Park)
position, set the parking
brake, and place the ignition
switch to the LOCK/OFF posi-
tion. Sparks produced byelectrical components relatedto 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.
If a fire breaks out during refu-
eling, leave the vicinity of the
vehicle, and immediately con-
tact the manager of the gasstation and then contact the
local fire department. Follow
any safety instructions they
provide.

Engine coolant temperatureGaugeThis gauge indicates the tempera- ture of the engine coolant when the
ignition switch or Engine Start/Stop
button is ON.
If the gauge pointer moves
beyond the normal range area
toward the "H" position, it indi-
cates overheating that may dam-
age the engine.
Do not continue driving with an
overheated engine. If your vehicle
overheats, refer to "If the Engine
Overheats" in chapter 6.Fuel gauge
This gauge indicates the approxi-mate amount of fuel remaining in thefuel tank.
NOTICE
Never remove the radiator cap
or reservoir cap when the
engine is hot. The enginecoolant is under pressure and
could severely burn. Wait until
the engine is cool before adding
coolant to the reservoir.

Information
 The fuel tank capacity is given in chapter 8.
 The fuel gauge is supplemented by a low fuel warning light, which will
illuminate when the fuel tank is
nearly empty.
 On inclines or curves, the fuel gauge pointer may fluctuate or the low fuel
warning light may come on earlier
than usual due to the movement of
fuel in the tank. Avoid driving with an extremely
low fuel level. Running out of fuel
could cause the engine to misfire,
damaging the catalytic converter.Odometer
The odometer indicates the total dis-
tance that the vehicle has been driv-
en and should be used to determine
when periodic maintenance should
be performed.
NOTICEi
Running out of fuel can expose
vehicle occupants to danger.
You must stop and obtain addi-
tional fuel as soon as possibleafter the warning light comes
on or when the gauge indicator
comes close to the "E (Empty)"
level.

Range
The range is the estimated dis-tance the vehicle can be driven with the remaining fuel.
If the estimated distance is below 1 km (1 mi.), the trip computer will
display "----" as range. Information
 If the vehicle is not on level ground or the battery power has been inter-
rupted, the range function may not
operate correctly.
 The range may differ from the actu- al driving distance as it is only an
estimate of the available driving
range for the vehicle and driving
conditions.
 The trip computer may not register additional fuel if less than 6 liters
(1.6 gallon) of fuel are added to the
vehicle.
 The range may vary significantly based on driving conditions, driving
habits, and condition of the vehicle.
Outside temperature gauge
This gauge indicates the current out-
side air temperatures by 1°C (1°F).
- Temperature range : -40°C~60°C (-40°F~140°F)
The outside temperature on the dis-
play may not change immediately
like a general thermometer (to avoid
distracting the driver).
To change the temperature unit from °C to °F or °F to °C:
For conventional cluster:
- Press the TRIP button for more than 5 seconds on the steering wheel.i
