A020104AEN
Use of MTBE
HYUNDAI recommends avoiding fuels
containing MTBE (Methyl Tertiary Butyl
Ether) over 15.0% vol. (Oxygen Content
2.7% weight) in your vehicle.
Fuel containing MTBE over 15.0% vol.
(Oxygen Content 2.7% weight) may
reduce vehicle performance and produce
vapor lock or hard starting.
A020105AUN
Do not use methanol
Fuels containing methanol (wood alco-
hol) should not be used in your vehicle.
This type of fuel can reduce vehicle per-
formance and damage components of
the fuel system, engine control system
and emission control system.
Fuel Additives
HYUNDAI recommends that you use
unleaded gasoline which has an octane
rating of RON(Research
Octane Number) 95 / AKI (Anti Knock
Index) 91 or higher (for Europe) or
Octane Rating of RON (Research
Octane Number) 91 / AKI (Anti-Knock
Index) 87 or higher (except Europe).
For customers who do not use good
quality gasoline including fuel additives
regularly, and have problems starting or
the engine does not run smoothly, one
bottle of additives added to the fuel tank
at every 15,000km (for Europe)/5,000km
(except Europe). Additives are available
from your authorized HYUNDAI dealer
along with information on how to use
them.
A020107AUN
Operation in foreign countries
If you are going to drive your vehicle in
another country, be sure to:
• Observe all regulations regarding reg-
istration and insurance.
• Determine that acceptable fuel is avail-
able.
Diesel engine
A020201DUN
Diesel fuel
Diesel engine must be operated only on
commercially available diesel fuel that
complies with EN 590 or comparable
standard. (EN stands for "European
Norm").
Do not use marine diesel fuel, heating
oils, or non-approved fuel additives, as
this will increase wear and cause dam-
age to the engine and fuel system.
The use of non-approved fuels and/or
fuel additives will result in a limitation of
your warranty rights.
Diesel fuel of above cetane 51 is used in
your vehicle. If two types of diesel fuel
are available, use summer or winter fuel
properly according to the following tem-
perature conditions.
• Above -5°C (23°F) ... Summer type
diesel fuel.
• Below -5°C (23°F) ... Winter type diesel
fuel.
Watch the fuel level in the tank very care-
fully : If the engine stops through fuel fail-
ure, the circuits must be completely
purged to permit restarting.
CAUTION
Your New Vehicle Limited Warranty
may not cover damage to the fuel
system and any performance prob-
lems 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.)

Engine oil pressure
warning light
This warning light indicates the engine oil
pressure is low.
If the warning light illuminates while driv-
ing:
1. Drive safely to the side of the road and
stop.
2. With the engine off, check the engine
oil level. If the level is low, add oil as
required.
If the warning light remains on after
adding oil or if oil is not available, we rec-
ommend that you call an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
Engine oil level warning
light (Diesel engine,
if equipped)
When the engine oil is not enough, the
engine oil level warning light may be illu-
minated. If the warning light comes on,
check the engine oil level as soon as
possible and add engine oil as required.
Slowly pour the recommended the oil lit-
tle by little into a funnel. (Oil refill capaci-
ty: approximately 0.6 ~ 1.0 L)
Use only the specified engine oil. (Refer
to "Recommended lubricants and capac-
ities" in section 9.) Do not overfill the
engine oil to ensure the oil level is not
above F mark on the dipstick.
✽NOTICE
• Cycle the ignition from OFF to ON 3
times within 5 seconds, the warning
light will go off immediately.
However, when you turn off the warn-
ing light without adding the engine oil,
the light may come on again.
• If you drive the vehicle after adding
the engine oil, the warning light will
go off within 1hour.CAUTION
If the engine is not stopped imme-
diately after the engine oil pressure
warning light is illuminated, severe
damage could result.
CAUTION
If the oil pressure warning light
stays on while the engine is run-
ning, serious engine damage may
result. The oil pressure warning
light comes on whenever there is
insufficient oil pressure. In normal
operation, it should come on when
the ignition switch is turned on,
then go out when the engine is
started. If the oil pressure warning
light stays on while the engine is
running, there is a serious malfunc-
tion.
If this happens, stop the car as
soon as it is safe to do so, turn off
the engine and check the oil level. If
the oil level is low, fill the engine oil
to the proper level and start the
engine again. If the light stays on
with the engine running, turn the
engine off immediately. In any
instance where the oil light stays on
when the engine is running, we rec-
ommend that the system be
checked by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer.

Features of your vehicle
Parking brake & brake fluid warning
light
Parking brake warning
This light is illuminated when the parking
brake is applied with the ignition switch in
the START or ON position. The warning
light should go off when the parking
brake is released while engine is run-
ning.
The parking brake warning chime will
sound to remind you that the parking
brake is applied when you are driving
above 10 km/h (6 mph). Always release
the parking brake before you drive.
Low brake fluid level warning
If the warning light remains on, it may
indicate that the brake fluid level in the
reservoir is low.
If the warning light remains on:
1. Drive carefully to the nearest safe
location and stop your vehicle.
2. With the engine stopped, check the
brake fluid level immediately and add
fluid as required. Then check all brake
components for fluid leaks.3. Do not drive the vehicle if leaks are
found, the warning light remains on or
the brakes do not operate properly.
We recommend that you contact an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
Your vehicle is equipped with dual-diago-
nal braking systems. This means you still
have braking on two wheels even if one
of the dual systems should fail. With only
one of the dual systems working, more
than normal pedal travel and greater
pedal pressure are required to stop the
car. Also, the car will not stop in as short
a distance with only a portion of the
brake system working. If the brakes fail
while you are driving, shift to a lower gear
for additional engine braking and stop the
car as soon as it is safe to do so.
To check bulb operation, check whether
the parking brake and brake fluid warning
light illuminates when the ignition switch
is in the ON position.
CAUTION
• If the light comes on continuous-
ly after adding the engine oil and
driving the vehicle for 1 hour,we
recommend that the system be
checked by an nearest authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
• Even if this light does not come
on after the engine has started,
the engine oil should be checked
and supplied periodically.■Type A■Type B
WARNING
Driving the vehicle with a warning
light on is dangerous. If the brake
warning light remains on, we rec-
ommend that the system be
checked by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer.
