FUEL FILLER LID
OBH048027OBH048028WARNING - Refueling
If pressurized fuel sprays out, itcan 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.
Do not "top off" after the nozzle automatically shuts off when
refueling.
Tighten the cap until it clicks one time, otherwise the Malfunction
Indicator Light will illuminate.
Always check that the fuel cap is installed securely to prevent fuel
spillage in the event of an acci-
dent.

(Continued)
Do not use cellular phones whilerefueling. Electric current and/or
electronic interference from cel-
lular phones can potentially
ignite fuel vapors causing a fire.
When refueling, always shut the engine off. Sparks produced by
electrical components related to
the engine can ignite fuel vapors
causing a fire. Once refueling is
complete, check to make sure the
filler cap and filler door are
securely closed, before starting
the engine.
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. Automotive fuel is
highly flammable and can, when
ignited, result in fire.
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 or 911. Follow any safety
instructions they provide.(Continued)
Do not get back into a vehicle once
you have begun refueling since
you can generate static electricity
by touching, rubbing or sliding
against any item or fabric (poly-
ester, satin, nylon, etc.) capable of
producing static electricity. Static
electricity discharge can ignite
fuel vapors resulting in rapid burn-
ing. If you must re-enter the vehi-
cle, you should once again elimi-
nate potentially dangerous static
electricity discharge by touching a
metal part of the vehicle, away
from the fuel filler neck, nozzle or
other gasoline source.
When using an approved portable fuel container, be sure to place the
container on the ground prior to
refueling. Static electricity dis-
charge from the container can
ignite fuel vapors causing a fire.
Once refueling has begun, contact
with the vehicle should be main-
tained until the filling is complete.
Use only approved portable plas-
tic fuel containers designed to
carry and store gasoline.
(Continued)WARNING - Refueling dan-
gers
Automotive fuels are flammable
materials. When refueling, please
note the following guidelines care-
fully. Failure to follow these guide-
lines may result in severe personal
injury, severe burns or death by fire
or explosion.
Read and follow all warningsposted at the gas station facility.
Before refueling, note the loca- tion of the Emergency Gasoline
Shut-Off, if available, at the gas
station facility.
Before touching the fuel nozzle, you should eliminate potentially
dangerous static electricity dis-
charge by touching another metal
part of the vehicle, a safe dis-
tance away from the fuel filler
neck, nozzle, or other gas source.

Power steering
Power steering uses energy from the
engine to assist you in steering the vehi-
cle. If the engine is off or if the power
steering system becomes inoperative,
the vehicle may still be steered, but it will
require increased steering effort.
Should you notice any change in the
effort required to steer during normal
vehicle operation, have the power steer-
ing checked by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer.
Electronic Hydraulic Power Steering(EHPS) (if equipped)
EHPS uses an electromotor to assist you
in steering the vehicle. It senses the vehi-
cle speed and road condition.
If the engine is off or if the power steer-
ing system becomes inoperative, the
vehicle may still be steered, but it will
require increased steering effort.
Should you notice any change in the
effort required to steer during normal
vehicle operation, have the power steer-
ing checked by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer.
✽ ✽ NOTICE
If the power steering drive belt breaks
or if the power steering pump malfunc-
tions, the steering effort will greatly
increase.
✽ ✽NOTICE
If the vehicle is parked for extended
periods outside in cold weather (below
14°F/-10°C), the power steering may
require increased effort when the engine
is first started. This is caused by
increased fluid viscosity due to the cold
weather and does not indicate a mal-
function.
When this happens, increase the engine
RPM by depressing accelerator until the
RPM reaches 1,500 rpm then release or
let the engine idle for two or three min-
utes to warm up the fluid.
D130300AEN
Tilt steering/Telescope steering
(if equipped)
Tilt steering allows you to adjust the
steering wheel before you drive. You can
also raise the steering wheel to give your
legs more room when you exit and enter
the vehicle.
The steering wheel should be positioned
so that it is comfortable for you to drive,
while permitting you to see the instru-
ment panel warning lights and gauges.
STEERING WHEEL
CAUTION
Never hold the steering wheel
against a stop (extreme right or leftturn) for more than 5 seconds withthe engine running. Holding thesteering wheel for more than 5 sec- onds in either position may causedamage to the power steeringpump.
WARNING
Never adjust the angle of the steering wheel while driving. You
may lose steering control and
cause severe personal injury,
death or accidents.
After adjusting, push the steering wheel both up and down to be
certain it is locked in position.

Electric chromic mirror (ECM)
(if equipped)
The electric chromic mirror automatically
controls the glare from the headlights of
the car behind you in nighttime or low
light driving conditions. The sensor
mounted in the mirror senses the light
level around the vehicle, and automati-
cally controls the headlight glare from
vehicles behind you.
When the engine is running, the glare is
automatically controlled by the sensor
mounted in the rearview mirror.
Whenever the shift lever is shifted into R
(Reverse), the mirror will automatically
go to the brightest setting in order to
improve the drivers view behind the vehi-
cle. If the ECM of inside rear view mirror
operates, it will be working.
OBH048042
CAUTION
The mirrors stop moving when they reach the maximum adjust-ing angles, but the motor contin-ues to operate while the switch isdepressed. Do not depress the switch longer than necessary, themotor may be damaged.
Do not attempt to adjust the out- side rearview mirror by hand.Doing so may damage the parts.
CAUTION
When cleaning the mirror, use apaper towel or similar materialdampened with glass cleaner. Do not spray glass cleaner directly onthe mirror as that may cause the liq- uid cleaner to enter the mirror hous-ing.
