B010B01A-AAT What About Gasohol? Gasohol (a mixture of 90% unleaded gasoline and 10% ethanol or grainalcohol) may be used in your Hyundai.However, if your engine develops driveability problems, the use of 100% unleaded gasoline is recommended.Fuels with unspecified quantities ofalcohol, or alcohols other than ethanol,should not be used.
B010A01O-GAT FUEL RECOMMENDATIONS Use Unleaded Gasoline
NOTE:
o For some countries, Hyundai
vehicles are designed to use leaded gasoline. When you aregoing to use leaded gasoline,ask to Hyundai dealer whetherleaded gasoline in your vehicle is available or not.
o Octane Rating of leaded gaso- line is same with unleaded one.
Use Diesel Diesel fuel of 52 to 54 cetane is used in Hyundai vehicle. If two types of diesel fuel are available, use summer or win-ter fuel properly according to the fol-lowing temperature conditions.
o Above -5 C (23 F) ... Summer type diesel fuel.
o Below -5 C (23 F) ... Winter type
diesel fuel.
Watch the fuel level in the tank very carefully : If the engine stops throughfuel failure, the circuits must be com-pletely purged to permit restarting.
Unleaded gasoline with a Pump Oc-tane Rating of 87 (Research OctaneNumber 91) or higher must be used in Hyundai vehicle. If leaded gasoline is used, it will cause the catalytic con-verter to become ineffective and theemission control system to malfunc-tion. This can also result in increasedmaintenance expense. To avoid acci- dental use of leaded fuel, the large nozzle used with leaded gasoline atservice stations can not be insertedinto fuel tank opening of Hyundai ve-hicle. HTB187
CAUTION:
o Do not let any gasoline or water enter the tank. This would makeit necessary to drain it out and tobleed the lines to avoid jammingthe injection pump and damag-ing the engine.
o In winter, in order to cut down
incidents due to freezing, paraf-fin oil may be added to the fuel ifthe temperature drops to below -10°C. Never use more than 20%paraffin oil.
