Introduction
Use of MTBEHyundai recommends that fuels contain-
ing MTBE (Methyl Tertiary Butyl Ether)
over 15.0% vol. (Oxygen Content 2.7%
weight) should not be used in your
Hyundai.
Fuel containing MTBE over 15.0% vol.
(Oxygen Content 2.7% weight) may
reduce vehicle performance and produce
vapor lock or hard starting.Do Not Use MethanolFuels containing methanol (wood alco-
hol) should not be used in your Hyundai.
This type of fuel can reduce vehicle per-
formance and damage components of
the fuel system.
Gasolines for Cleaner AirTo help contribute to cleaner air, Hyundai
recommends that you use gasolines
treated with detergent additives, which
help prevent deposit formation in the
engine. These gasolines will help the
engine run cleaner and enhance per-
formance of the Emission Control
System.Operation in Foreign CountriesIf you are going to drive your Hyundai in
another country, be sure to:
 Observe all regulations regarding reg-
istration and insurance.
 Determine that acceptable fuel is avail-
able.
During the First 1,200 Miles (2,000
Km)No formal "break-in" procedure is
required with your new Hyundai.
However, you can contribute to the eco-
nomical operation and durability of your
Hyundai by observing the following rec-
ommendations during the first 1,200
miles (2,000 km).
 Don't drive faster than 55 MPH (88
km/h).
 While driving, keep your engine speed
(rpm, or revolutions per minute)
between 2,000 rpm and 4,000 rpm.
 Use moderate acceleration. Don't start
quickly or depress the accelerator
pedal fully.
 For the first 200 miles (300 km), try to
avoid hard stops.
 Whether going fast or slow, vary your
speed from time to time.
 Don't let the engine idle longer than 3
minutes at one time.
 Don't tow a trailer during the first 1,200
miles (2,000 km) of operation.
CAUTION
Your Hyundai's New Vehicle Limited
Warranty may not cover damage to
the fuel system and any perform-
ance problems that are caused by
the use of fuels containing
methanol or fuels containing MTBE
(Methyl Tertiary Butyl Ether) over
15.0% vol. (Oxygen Content 2.7%
weight.)

Features of your vehicle
✽ ✽
NOTICEIf the driver's safety belt is not fastened
when the key is turned ON or if it is dis-
connected after the key is turned ON,
the safety belt warning light will blink
until the belt is fastened.
If the driver's safety belt is not fastened
when the key is turned ON or if it is
unfastened after the key is ON, the safe-
ty belt warning chime will sound for
approximately 6 seconds.
Seat belts - Front passenger and
rear seat 3-point system with
combination locking retractorTo fasten your belt Combination retractor type seat belts are
installed in the rear seat positions to help
accommodate the installation of child
restraint systems. Although a combina-
tion retractor is also installed in the front
passenger seat position, Hyundai strong-
ly recommends that children always be
seated in the rear seat. NEVER place
any infant restraint system in the front
seat of the vehicle.
This type of seat belt combines the fea-
tures of both an emergency locking
retractor seat belt and an automatic lock-
ing retractor seat belt. To fasten your seat
belt, pull it out of the retractor and insert
the metal tab into the buckle. There will
be an audible "click" when the tab locks
into the buckle. When not securing a
child restraint, the seat belt operates in
the same way as the driver's seat belt
(Emergency Locking Retractor Type). It
automatically adjusts to the proper length
only after the lap belt portion of the seat
belt is adjusted manually so that it fits
snugly around your hips.When the seat belt is fully extended from
the retractor to allow the installation of a
child restraint system, the seat belt oper-
ation changes to allow the belt to retract,
but not to extend (Automatic Locking
Retractor Type). See page 3-75.
✽ ✽
NOTICEAlthough the combination retractor
provides the same level of protection for
seated passengers in either emergency
or automatic locking modes, it is recom-
mended that seated passengers use the
emergency locking feature for improved
convenience. The automatic locking
function is intended to facilitate child
restraint installation. To convert from
the automatic locking feature to the
emergency locking operation mode,
allow the unbuckled seat belt to fully
retract.
WARNING
For maximum restraint system
protection, the seat belts must
always be used whenever the car
is moving.
Seat belts are most effective
when seatbacks are in the upright
position.

NOTICEPerform the calibration procedure for a
new vehicle as follows.Calibration procedureThe compass may not indicate the cor-
rect compass direction when you are
driving in certain areas (tunnels, parking
garages, underground parking lots, near
transformer substations, etc.), and the
following may occur:
The compass headings become inac-
curate.
The compass heading doesn't change
when the vehicle changes direction.
Some compass headings are not dis-
played.
The compass headings are inaccurate
in long distance driving.
If the vehicle's compass headings
become inaccurate continuously, the
compass should be manually calibrated
as follows:1. Move the vehicle away from any large
steel structures or power generating
cables or equipment and into a safe
open location, such as an abandoned
parking lot.
2. Check the terrestrial deviation angle
value by pressing and holding the
MODE button for 4.5 seconds until the
current terrestrial deviation angle
value appears in the display.
3. If the terrestrial deviation angle value
is different for your country, set the cor-
rect angle referring to “Setting the
compass zone” and perform the
“Calibration procedure” again.
4. Make sure the vehicle windshield
wipers are turned off.5. Press and hold the MODE button
again for 2~4.5 seconds until the “turn”
appears and “DIR” blinks in the display
and release the button.
6. Drive your vehicle in at least 1 com-
plete (either clockwise or counter-
clockwise) circle at less than 3 mph (5
km/h) within 10 minutes until the com-
pass heading appears.
7. If the vehicle’s compass headings
become inaccurate again, repeat
steps 1 through 6 above.
✽ ✽
NOTICEIf you press the MODE button before
the calibration is completed or the vehi-
cle is not rotated within 10 minutes after
“turn” appears and “DIR” blinks, the
correction will be cancelled.

Also, if the correction is not completed
within 30 seconds, the current terrestri-
al deviation angle value will blink for 2
seconds and the correction will be can-
celled.
✽ ✽
NOTICE1. Do not install a ski rack, antenna, etc.
that is attached to the vehicle using a
magnet, as anything attached to the
roof of the vehicle with a magnet will
effect compass operation.
2. If the compass deviates from the cor-
rect indication after repeated adjust-
ment, have the compass checked at an
authorized dealer.
3. The compass may not indicate the
correct compass point in tunnels or
while driving up or down a steep hill.
(The compass returns to the correct
compass point when the vehicle moves
to an area where the geomagnetism is
stabilized.)

additional fuel if less than 1.6 gallons
(6 liters) of fuel are added to the vehi-
cle.
• The fuel consumption and distance to
empty values may vary significantly
based on driving conditions, driving
habits, and condition of the vehicle.
• The distance to empty value is an esti-
mate of the available driving distance.
This value may differ from the actual
driving distance available.
Driving time (“ET” shown on dis-
play)This mode indicates the total time trav-
eled since the last driving time reset.
Even if the vehicle is not in motion, the
driving time keeps going while the engine
is running.

Features of your vehicle148 3Air conditioning system operation tips
If the vehicle has been parked in direct
sunlight during hot weather, open the
windows for a short time to let the hot
air inside the vehicle escape.
To help reduce moisture inside of win-
dows on rainy humid days, decrease
the humidity inside the vehicle by oper-
ating the air conditioning system.
During air conditioning system opera-
tion, you may occasionally notice a
slight change in engine speed as the
air conditioning compressor cycles on.
This is a normal system operation
characteristics.
Use the air conditioning system every
month for a few minutes to ensure
maximum system performance.
When using the air conditioning sys-
tem, you may notice water dripping (or
puddling) on the ground under the
passenger side of the vehicle. This is a
normal system operation characteris-
tic.
Operating the air conditioning system
in the recirculated air position does
provide maximum cooling, however,
continual operation in this mode may
cause the air inside the vehicle to
become stale.
Checking the amount of air con-
ditioner refrigerant and compres-
sor lubricantWhen the amount of refrigerant is low,
the performance of the air conditioning is
reduced. Overfilling also has negative
result on the air conditioning system.
Therefore, if abnormal operation is
found, have the system inspected by an
authorized Hyundai dealer.
WARNING
The air conditioning system should
be serviced by an authorized
Hyundai dealer. Improper service
may cause serious injury.
CAUTION
When the performance of the air
conditioning system is reduced it is
important that the correct type and
amount of oil and refrigerant is
used. Otherwise, damage to the
compressor and abnormal system
operation may occur.
