B010F01A-AAT Operation in Foreign Countries If you are going to drive your Hyundai in another country, be sure to:
o Observe all regulations regarding
registration and insurance.
o Determine that acceptable fuel is available.
Unleaded petrol with a Pump Octane Rating of 87 (Research Octane Num- ber 91) or higher must be used inyour Hyundai. If leaded petrol is used, it will cause the catalytic converter to become ineffec-tive and the emission control system to malfunction. This can also result in increased maintenance expense. To avoid accidental use of leaded fuel, the larger nozzle used with leadedpetrol at service stations cannot be inserted into the fuel tank opening of your Hyundai.
B010A01A-DAT FUEL RECOMMENDATIONS Use Unleaded Petrol
B010A02TB B010E01A-DAT Petrol for Cleaner Air To help contribute to cleaner air, Hyundai recommends that you usepetrol treated with detergent additives, which help prevent deposit formation in the engine. This petrol will help theengine run cleaner and the Emission Control System performance.
