Diesel engine
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 damage 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
temperature 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
carefully : If the engine stop s through
fuel failure, the circuits must be
completely purged to permit restarting.
CAUTION
Do not let any petrol or water enter the
tank. This would make it necessary to
drain it out and to bleed the lines to
avoid jamming the injection pump and
damaging the engine.
CAUTION
Diesel Fuel (if equipped with DPF)
It is recommended to use the regulated
automotive diesel fuel for diesel vehicle
equipped with the DPF system.
If you use diesel fuel including high
sulfur (more than 50 ppm sulfur) and
unspecified additives, it can cause the
DPF system to be damaged and white
smoke can be emitted.
Biodiesel
Commercially supplied Diesel blends of
no more than 7% biodiesel, commonly
known as “B7 Diesel” may be used
in your vehicle if Biodiesel meets EN
14214 or equivalent specifications. (EN
stands for “European Norm”). The use
of biofuels exceeding 7% made from
rapeseed methyl ester (RME), fatty
acid methyl ester (FAME), vegetable oil
methyl ester (VME) etc. or mixing diesel
exceeding 7% with biodiesel will cause
increased wear or damage to the engine
and fuel system. Repair or replacement
of worn or damaged components due to
the use of non approved fuels will not be
covered by the manufactures warranty.
CAUTION
• Never use any fuel, whether diesel,
B7 biodiesel or otherwise, that fails
to meet the latest petroleum industry
specification.
• Never use any fuel additives
or treatments that are not
recommended or approved by the
vehicle manufacturer.

Vehicle information
Engine oil viscosity (thickness) has an effect on fuel economy and cold weather
operating (engine start and engine oil flowability). Lower viscosity engine oils can
provide better fuel economy and cold weather performance, however, higher
viscosity engine oils are required for satisfactory lubrication in hot weather.
Using oils of any viscosity other than those recommended could result in engine
damage.
When choosing an oil, consider the range of temperature your vehicle will be
operated in before the next oil change. Proceed to select the recommended oil
viscosity from the chart.

CAUTION
Always be sure to clean the area around any filler plug, drain plug, or dipstick
before checking or draining any lubricant. This is especially important in dusty or
sandy areas and when the vehicle is used on unpaved roads. Cleaning the plug
and dipstick areas will prevent dirt and grit from entering the engine and other
mechanisms that could be damaged.
An engine oil displaying this American Petroleum Institute(API)
Certification Mark conforms to the International Lubricant
Specification Advisory Committee (ILSAC). It is recommended to only
use engine oils that uphold this API Certification Mark.

Engine Start/Stop button to the ON
position.
- It remains on until the engine is
started.
• When there is a malfunction with
either the alternator or electrical
charging system.
If there is a malfunction with either
the alternator or electrical charging
system:
1. Drive carefully to the nearest safe
location and stop your vehicle.
2. Turn the engine off and check the
alternator drive belt for looseness or
breakage.
If the belt is adjusted properly, there
may be a problem in the electrical
charging system.
In this case, we recommend that you
have the vehicle inspected by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer as soon as
possible.
Engine Oil Pressure
Warning Light
This warning light illuminates:
• Once you set the ignition switch or
Engine Start/Stop button to the ON
position.
- It remains on until the engine is
started.
• When the engine oil pressure is low.
If the engine oil pressure is low:
1. Drive carefully to the nearest safe
location and stop your vehicle.
2. Turn the engine off and check the
engine oil level (For more details, refer
to “Engine Oil” in chapter 9). 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
recommend that you have the vehicle
inspected by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer as soon as possible.

Low engine oil (if equipped)
This warning message is displayed when
the engine oil level should be checked.
If this warning message is displayed,
check the engine oil level as soon as
possible and add engine oil as required.
Slowly pour the recommended oil little
by little into a funnel.
Use only the specified engine oil. (Refer
to "Recommended lubricants and
capacities" section in chapter 2.)
Do not overfill the engine oil. Make sure
the oil level is not above F (Full) mark on
the dipstick.
NOTICE
If the message is displayed
continuously after adding the engine
oil and travelling approximately
50~100 km after the engine warms up,
we recommend that the system be
checked by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer.
Engine has overheated
(if equipped)
This warning message is displayed
when the engine coolant temperature
is above 120°C (248°F). This means that
the engine is overheated and may be
damaged.
If your vehicle is overheated, refer to
“Overheating” section in chapter 8.
Check headlight (if equipped)
This warning message is displayed if the
headlamps are not operating properly.
In addition, if a specific lamp(turn signal
lamp etc.) is not operating properly, the
warning message according to a specific
lamp (turn signal lamp etc.) is displayed.
A corresponding bulb may need to be
replaced.
Make sure to replace the burned out
bulb with a new one of the same
wattage rating.
Check brake light (if equipped)
This warning message is displayed if the
stop lamps are not operating properly. A
lamp may need to be replaced.
Make sure to replace the burned out
bulb with a new one of the same
wattage rating.

Air conditioning
HYUNDAI Air Conditioning Systems are
filled with R-134a refrigerant.
1. Start the engine.
2. Push the air conditioning button.
3. Select the Face Level
mode.
4. Set the air intake control to
Recirculation mode temporarily to
allow the cabin to cool quickly. When
the desired temperature in the cabin
is reached, change the air intake
control back to Fresh mode.
5. Adjust the fan speed control and
temperature control to maintain
maximum comfort.
NOTICE
• The refrigerant system should only
be serviced by trained and certified
technicians to insure proper and safe
operation.
• The refrigerant system should be
serviced in a well-ventilated place.
• The air conditioning evaporator
(cooling coil) shall never be repaired
or replaced with one removed from
a used or salvaged vehicle and new
replacement MAC evaporators shall
be certified (and labeled) as meeting
SAE Standard J2842.
i Information
• When using the air conditioning system,
monitor the temperature gauge closely
while driving up hills or in heavy traffic
when outside temperatures are high.
Air conditioning system operation may
cause engine overheating. Continue
to use the blower fan but turn the
air conditioning system off if the
temperature gauge indicates engine
overheating.
• When opening the windows in humid
weather, air conditioning may create
water droplets inside the vehicle. Since
excessive water droplets may cause
damage to electrical equipment, air
conditioning should only be used with
the windows closed.
