B010A01O-GAT FUEL RECOMMENDATIONS Use Unleaded Gasoline Unleaded gasoline with a Pump Octane Rating of 87 (Research Octane Number 91) or highermust be used in Hyundai vehicle. If leadedgasoline is used, it will cause the catalyticconverter to become ineffective and the emis-sion control system to malfunction. This canalso result in increased maintenance expense.To avoid accidental use of leaded fuel, the largenozzle used with leaded gasoline at servicestations can not be inserted into fuel tankopening of Hyundai vehicle. NOTE:
o For some countries, Hyundai vehicles
are designed to use leaded gasoline.When you are going to use leaded gaso-line, ask to Hyundai dealer whether leadedgasoline in your vehicle is available ornot.
o Octane Rating of leaded gasoline 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 winter fuel properly according tothe following 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 through fuel failure, thecircuits must be completely purged to permitrestarting. CAUTION:
o Do not let any gasoline or water enter the tank. This would make it necessary todrain it out and to bleed the lines to avoidjamming the injection pump and damag-ing the engine.
o In winter, in order to cut down incidents due to freezing, paraffin oil may be addedto the fuel if the temperature drops tobelow -10°C. Never use more than 20%paraffin oil. B010B01A-AAT What About Gasohol?Gasohol (a mixture of 90% unleaded gasoline and 10% ethanol or grain alcohol) may be usedin your Hyundai. However, if your engine devel-ops driveability problems, the use of 100%unleaded gasoline is recommended. Fuels withunspecified quantities of alcohol, or alcoholsother than ethanol, should not be used. B010E01A-AAT Gasolines for Cleaner Air To help contribute to cleaner air, Hyundai rec- ommends that you use gasolines treated withdetergent additives, which help prevent depositformation in the engine. These gasolines willhelp the engine run cleaner and enhance per-formance of the Emission Control System.
B010D01S-AAT Do not Use Methanol Fuels containing methanol (wood alcohol) should not be used in your Hyundai. This typeof fuel can reduce vehicle performance anddamage components of the fuel system. CAUTION: Your Hyundai's New Vehicle Limited War-
ranty may not cover damage to the fuelsystem and performance problems that are
caused by the use of methanol or fuelscontaining methanol.

B850A01F-AAT CARE OF DISC Proper Handling
Do not grip or pull out the disc with your hand while the disc is being pulled into the unit by theself loading mechanism.Do not pull the unit from the dash immediatelyafter a disc is inserted or the eject switch hasbeen pressed. If the unit is pulled out before anoperation is completed, the disc will be un-stable in the unit and may be damaged.Do not attempt to insert a disc into the unit whenthe unit is out of the dash or the power is off. Keep Your Discs Clean
YL11240B
Handle your disc as shown. Do not drop the disc. Hold the disc so you will not leave finger-prints on the surface. If the surface is scratched,it may cause the pickup to skip signal tracks. Donot affix tape, paper, or gummed labels on thedisc. Do not write on the disc. Damaged Disc Do not attempt to play damaged, warped or cracked discs. These could severely damagethe playback mechanism. Storage When not in use, place your discs in their individual cases and store them in a cool placeaway from the sun, heat, and dust.
YL11250B
Fingerprints, dust, or soil on the surface of a disc could cause the pickup to skip signaltracks. Wipe the surface clean with a clean softcloth. If the surface is heavily soiled, dampen aclean soft cloth in a solution of mild neutraldetergent to wipe it clean. See drawing.B860A01A-AAT Care of Cassette Tapes
SSAR040B
Proper care of your cassette tapes will extend the tape life and increase your listening enjoy-ment. Always protect your tapes and cassettecases from direct sunlight, severe cold anddusty conditions. When not in use, cassettesshould always be stored in the protective cas-sette case. When the vehicle is very hot or cold,allow the interior temperature to become morecomfortable before listening to your cassettes.
o Never leave a cassette inserted in the player
when not being played. This could damage the tape player unit and the cassette tape.
o We strongly recommend against the use of tapes longer than C-60 (60 minutes total).Tapes such as C-120 or C-180 are very thinand do not perform as well in the automotiveenvironment.

o Be sure that the cassette label is not loose or peeling off or tape ejection may be diffi- cult.
o Never touch or soil the actual audio tape surfaces.
o Keep all magnetized objects, such as elec- tric motors, speakers or transformers awayfrom your cassette tapes and tape playerunit.
o Store cassettes in a cool, dry place with the open side facing down to prevent dust fromsetting in the cassette body.
o Avoid repeated fast reverse usage to replay one given tune or tape section. This cancause poor tape winding to occur, and even-tually cause excessive internal drag andpoor audio quality in the cassette. If thisoccurs, it can sometimes be corrected byfast winding the tape from end to end sev-eral times. If this does not correct the prob-lem, do not continue to use the tape in yourvehicle. o The playback head, capstan and pinch roll-
ers will develop a coating of tape residuethat can result in deterioration of soundquality, such as a wavering sound. Theyshould be cleaned monthly using a com-mercially available head cleaning tape orspecial solution available from audio spe-cialty shops. Follow the supplier's directionscarefully and never oil any part of the tapeplayer unit.
o Always be sure that the tape is tightly wound on its reel before inserting in the player.Rotate a pencil in the drive sprockets towind up any slack.

DRIVING YOUR HYUNDAI 2- 11
C160C01A-AAT Use High Quality Ethylene Glycol Coolant Your Hyundai is delivered with high quality ethyl- ene glycol coolant in the cooling system. It is the only type of coolant that should be used because it helps prevent corrosion in the cooling system, lubricates the water pump and prevents freezing. Be sure to replace or replenish your coolant in accordance with the maintenance schedule in Section 5. Before winter, have your coolant test- ed to assure that its freezing point is sufficient for the temperatures anticipated during the winter. C160D01A-AAT Check Battery and Cables Winter puts additional burdens on the battery system. Visually inspect the battery and cables as described in Section 6. The level of charge in your battery can be checked by your Hyundai dealer or a service station.
C160G01A-GAT To Keep Locks from Freezing To keep the locks from freezing, squirt an ap- proved de-icer fluid or glycerine into the key opening. If a lock is covered with ice, squirt it with an approved de-icing fluid to remove the ice. If the lock is frozen internally, you may be able to thaw it out by using a heated key. Handle the heated key with care to avoid burning your fin- gers. NOTE: The proper temperature for using the immo- bilizer key is from -40°C to 80°C. If you heat the immobilizer key over 80°C to open the frozen lock, it may cause damage to the transponder in its head.
C160E01A-AAT Change to "Winter Weight" Oil if Necessary In some climates it is recommended that a lower viscosity "winter weight" oil be used during cold weather. See Section 9 for recommendations. If you aren’t sure what weight oil you should use, consult your Hyundai dealer. C160F01A-AAT Check Spark Plugs and Ignition System Inspect your spark plugs as described in Section 6 and replace them if necessary. Also check all ignition wiring and components to be sure they are not cracked, worn or damaged in any way.
C160H01A-AAT Use Approved Anti-Freeze in Window Washer System To keep the water in the window washer system from freezing, add an approved anti-freeze solu- tion in accordance with instructions on the con- tainer. Window washer anti-freeze is available from Hyundai dealers and most auto parts out- lets. Do not use engine coolant or other types of anti-freeze as these may damage the finish. C160I01A-AAT Don’t Let Your Parking Brake Freeze Under some conditions your parking brake can freeze in the engaged position. This is most likely to happen when there is an accumulation of snow or ice around or near the rear brakes or if the brakes are wet. If there is a risk the parking brake may freeze, apply it only temporarily while you put the gear selector lever in "P" (automatic) or in first or reverse gear (manual transaxle) and block the rear wheels so the car cannot roll. Then release the parking brake. C160J01A-AAT Don’t Let Ice and Snow Accumulate Underneath Under some conditions, snow and ice can build up under the fenders and interfere with the steer- ing. When driving in severe winter conditions where this may happen, you should periodically check underneath the car to be sure the move- ment of the front wheels and the steering compo- nents is not obstructed.
deceleration, use engine braking to the fullestextent. Sudden brake applications on snowy or icy roads may cause skids to occur. You need to keep sufficient distance between the vehicle in front and your vehicle. Also, apply the brake gently. It should be noted that installing tire chains on the tire will provide a greater driving force, but will not prevent side skids. NOTE: Tire chains are not legal in all provinces. Check province laws before fitting tire chains.

DRIVING YOUR HYUNDAI
2- 12 The hitch should be bolted securely to the car and installed by a qualified technician. DO NOT USE A HITCH DESIGNED FOR TEMPORARY INSTALLATION AND NEVER USE ONE THAT ATTACHES ONLY TO THE BUMPER. C190C03S-GAT Trailer Brakes If your trailer is equipped with a braking system, make sure it conforms to federal and/or local regulations and that it is properly installed and operating correctly. NOTE: If you tow a trailer or vehicle, your car will require more frequent maintenance due to the additional load. See "Maintenance Under Severe Usage Conditions" on page 5-5. CAUTION:
o Never connect a trailer brake system di-
rectly to the vehicle brake system.
o When towing a trailer on steep grades (in excess of 12%) pay close attention to theengine coolant temperature gauge to en- sure the engine does not overheat. If the needle of the coolant temperature gauge moves across the dial towards "H" (HOT), pull over and stop as soon as it is safe to do so, and allow the engine to idle until it cools down. You may proceed once the engine has cooled sufficiently.
C180A01A-AAT USE OF LIGHTS Check your lights regularly for correct operation and always keep them clean. When driving dur- ing the day in conditions of poor visibility, it is helpful to drive with headlights on low beam. This enables you to be seen as well as to see. C190A02A-GAT TRAILER OR VEHICLE TOWINGIf you are considering towing with your car, you should first check with your Province Depart- ment of Motor Vehicles to determine their legal requirements. Since laws vary from province to province, the requirements for towing trailers, cars, other types of vehicles, or apparatus may differ. Ask your Hyundai dealer for further details before towing. CAUTION Do not do any towing with your car during its first 2,000 km (1,200 miles) in order to allow the engine to properly break in. Failure to heed this caution may result in serious en- gine or transaxle damage. C190B01S-AAT Trailer Hitches Select the proper hitch and ball combination, making sure that it’s location is compatible with that of the trailer or vehicle being towed. Use a quality non-equalizing hitch which distrib- utes the tongue load uniformly throughout the chassis.
C160K01A-AAT Carry Emergency Equipment Depending on the severity of the weather where you drive your car, you should carry appropriate emergency equipment. Some of the items you may want to carry include tire chains, tow straps or chains, flashlight, emergency flares, sand, a shovel, jumper cables, a window scraper, gloves, ground cloth, coveralls, a blanket, etc. C170A01A-AAT HIGHER SPEED MOTORING Pre-Trip Inspections 1. Tires: Adjust the tire inflation pressures to specifica- tion. Low tire inflation pressures will result in overheating and possible failure of the tires. Avoid using worn or damaged tires which may result in reduced traction or tire failure. NOTE: Never exceed the maximum tire inflation pres- sure shown on the tires. 2. Fuel, engine coolant and engine oil: High speed travel consumes 1.5 times more fuel than urban motoring. Do not forget to check both engine coolant and engine oil. 3. Drive belt: A loose or damaged drive belt may result in overheating of the engine.

the surface after washing to remove the solution. Never allow the solution to dry on the painted surfaces.
E030D01A-AAT When to Wax Again You should polish and wax the car again when water no longer beads on a clean surface but spreads out over a larger area. E030E01A-AAT Maintaining Bumpers Special precautions must be observed to pre- serve the appearance of the bumpers on your Hyundai. They are:
o Be careful not to spill battery electrolyte or
hydraulic brake fluid on the bumpers. If you do, wash it off immediately with clear water.
o Be gentle when cleaning the bumper sur- faces. They are made of soft plastic and the surface can be damaged if mistreated. Do not use abrasive cleaners. Use warm water and mild soap or car-washing solution.
o Do not expose the bumpers to high tem-
peratures. For example, if you have your car repainted, do not leave the bumpers on the car if the car is going to be placed in a high- temperature paint booth.
E040A01A-AAT CLEANING THE INTERIOR To Clean the Vinyl Upholstery To clean the vinyl upholstery, first remove loose dirt and dust with a vacuum cleaner. Then apply a solution of mild soap or detergent and water using a clean sponge or soft cloth. Allow this to stay on the surface to loosen the dirt, then wipe with a clean damp sponge or cloth. If all the dirt stains are not removed, repeat this procedure until the upholstery is clean. Do not use gasoline, solvent, paint thinner or other strong cleaners.
E030B01A-AAT Spot Cleaning Don’t use gasoline, strong solvents or corrosive cleaning agents. These can damage the finish of the car. To remove road tar, use turpentine on a clean, soft cloth or commercially available bug and tar remover. Be gentle. To remove dead insects or tree sap, use warm water and mild soap or car-washing solution. Soak the spot and rub gently. If the paint has lost its luster, use a commercial car-cleaning polish. E030C01A-AAT Polishing and WaxingAlways wash and dry the car before polishing or waxing or using a combination cleaner and wax. Use a good quality commercial product and follow the manufacturer’s directions on the con- tainer. Polish and wax the bright trim pieces as well as the paint. E040B01A-AAT To Clean the Leather Upholstery (If Installed) In the normal course of use, leather upholstered surfaces will, like any material, pick-up dust and dirt. This dust and dirt must be cleaned off or it may work into the surface of the leather, causing damage. Fine leather needs care, and should be cleaned when necessary. Washing leather thoroughly with soap and water will keep your leather lus- trous, beautiful and ensure you have many years of wear. Take a piece of cheese cloth and using any mild soap and lukewarm water, work up a good lather. Thoroughly wash the leather. Wipe clean with a slightly damp cloth and dry with soft cloth. Do this as often as the leather becomes soiled. During tanning operations, sufficient oils are in- corporated through processing that none need be applied during the life of the leather. Oil applied to the finished surface will in no way help the leather and may do more harm than good. Varnishes and furniture polishes should never be used under any conditions.
