Unleaded petrol with a Pump Octane Rating of 87 (Research Octane Num-ber 91) or higher must be used in your Hyundai. If leaded petrol is used, it will cause the catalytic converter to become ineffec- tive and the emission control system tomalfunction. This can also result in increased maintenance expense. To avoid accidental use of leaded fuel,the larger nozzle used with leaded petrol at service stations cannot be inserted into the fuel tank opening of your Hyundai.
B010A02CM-DAT Use Unleaded Petrol
FUEL RECOMMENDATIONS
UNLEADED FUEL ONLY
!
Use Diesel Diesel fuel Diesel engine must be operated only on commercially available diesel fuel that complies with EN 590 or comparablestandard. (EN stands for "European Norm"). Do not use marine diesel fuel, heating oils, or non-approved fuel addi-tives, as this will increase wear and cause damage to the engine and fuel system. The use of non-approved fuelsand / or fuel additives will result in a limitation of your warranty rights. Diesel fuel of 52 to 54 cetane is thecorrect rating to use in your Hyundai. If two types of diesel fuel are available, use summer or winter fuel properlyaccording to the 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, the circuits must be com- pletely purged to permit restarting. CAUTION:
o Do not let any petrol or water enter the tank. This would make it nec- essary to drain it out and to bleed the lines to avoid jamming theinjection pump and damaging the engine.
o In winter, in order to cut down
incidents due to freezing, paraffinoil may be added to the fuel if the temperature drops to below -10°C.Never use more than 20% paraffin oil.
Biodiesel Commercially supplied biodiesel blends of no more than 5% biodiesel, com- monly known as "B5 biodiesel" may be used in your vehicle if it meets EN14214 or equivalent specifications. (EN stands for "European Norm"). The use of biofuels made from rapeseed methylester (RME), fatty acid methyl ester (FAME), vegetable oil methyl ester (VME) etc. or mixing diesel withbiodiesel will cause increased wear or damage to the engine and fuel system.

A slack belt will greatly reduce the protection afforded to the wearer. Care should be taken to avoid con-tamination of the webbing with pol- ishes, oils and chemicals, and par- ticularly battery acid. Cleaning maysafely be carried out using mild soap and water. The belt should be re- placed if webbing becomes frayed,contaminated or damaged. It is es- sential to replace the entire assem- bly after it has been worn in a severeimpact even if damage to the assem- bly is not obvious. Belts should not be worn with straps twisted. Eachbelt assembly must only be used by one occupant; it is dangerous to put a belt around a child being carriedon the occupant's lap.
WARNING:
No modifications or additions should be made by the user which will either prevent the seat belt adjusting de-vices from operating to remove slack, or prevent the seat belt assembly from being adjusted to remove slack. B150B01A-DAT Maintenance of Seat Belts When cleaning the seat belts, as rec- ommended, avoid getting solutions intothe buckle where they may attack the lubricant or cause corrosion. Do not attempt to bleach or re-dye belts, asthis may affect the webbing strength. NOTE: Do not attempt any form of modifica- tions or repairs to seat belt compo- nents. If the retractor or other com- ponents do not operate correctly,call an authorised Hyundai Dealer, who will take the necessary correc- tive action. Your authorised dealerwill inspect all seat belt components at regular intervals and advise if re- placement is required. Between theseinspections you should make regu- lar checks to ensure that foreign objects are not preventing completebuckle engagement.
B160B01A-AAT Periodic Inspection It is recommended that all seat belts be inspected periodically for wear or dam-age of any kind. Parts of the system that are damaged should be replaced as soon as possible. B160C01A-AAT Keep Belts Clean and Dry Seat belts should be kept clean and dry. If belts become dirty, they can becleaned by using a mild soap solution and warm water. Bleach, dye, strong detergents or abrasives should not beused because they may damage and weaken the fabric. B160D01A-AAT When To Replace Seat Belts The entire seat belt assembly or as- semblies should be replaced if the ve- hicle has been involved in an accident. This should be done even if no damageis visible. Additional questions con- cerning seat belt operation should be directed to your Hyundai Dealer.

Low Oil Pressure Warn- ing Light
CAUTION:
If the low oil pressure warning light stays on while the engine is running,serious engine damage may result. The oil pressure warning light comes on whenever there is insufficient oilpressure. In normal operation, it should come on when the ignition switch is turned on, then go outwhen the engine is started. If the oil pressure warning light stays on while the engine is running, there is aserious malfunction. If this happens, stop the car as soon as it is safe to do so, turn off theengine and check the oil level. If the oil level is low, fill the engine oil to the proper level and start the engineagain. If the light stays on with the engine running, turn the engine off immediately. In any instance wherethe oil light stays on when the engine is running, the engine should be checked by a Hyundai dealer beforethe car is driven again.

B260H02A-GAT Parking Brake/Low Brake Fluid Level Warning Light
WARNING:
If you suspect brake trouble, have your brakes checked by a Hyundai dealer as soon as possible. Driving your car with a problem in either thebrake electrical system or brake hy- draulic system is dangerous, and could result in a serious injury or death.
Warning Light Operation The parking brake/low brake fluid level warning light should come on when theparking brake is applied and the ignition switch is turned to "ON" or "START". After the engine is started, the lightshould go out when the parking brake is released. If the parking brake is not applied, the warning light should comeon when the ignition switch is turned to "ON" or "START", then go out when the engine starts. If the light comes on atany other time, you should slow the vehicle and bring it to a complete stop in a safe location off the roadway. The brake fluid level warning light indi-cates that the brake fluid level in thebrake master cylinder is low and hy- draulic brake fluid conforming to DOT 3 or DOT 4 specifications should be added.After adding fluid, if no other trouble is found, the car should be immediately and carefully driven to a Hyundai dealerfor inspection. If further trouble is expe- rienced, the vehicle should not be driven at all but taken to a dealer by aprofessional towing service or some other safe method. Your Hyundai is equipped with dual-diagonal braking systems. This means you still have braking on two wheels even if one of the dual systems shouldfail. With only one of the dual systems working, more than normal pedal travel and greater pedal pressure are requiredto stop the car. Also, the car will not stop in as short a distance with only half of the brake system working. If thebrakes fail while you are driving, shift to a lower gear for additional engine brak- ing and stop the car as soon as it is safeto do so.

WARNING: ENGINE EXHAUST CAN BE DANGEROUS!
Engine exhaust fumes can be extremely dangerous. If, at any time, you smell exhaust fumes inside the vehicle, open the windows immediately. o Do not inhale exhaust fumes. Exhaust fumes contain carbon monoxide, a colorless, odorless gas that can cause unconsciousness and death by asphyxiation. o Be sure the exhaust system does not leak. The exhaust system should be checked whenever the vehicle is raised to change the oil or for any other purpose.If you hear a change in the sound of the exhaust or if you drive over something that strikes the underneath sideof the car, have the exhaust system checked as soon as possible by your Hyundai dealer. o Do not run the engine in an enclosed area. Letting the engine idle in your garage, even with the garage door open, is a hazardous practice. Never run theengine in your garage any longer than it takes to start the engine and back the car out. o Avoid idling the engine for prolonged periods with people inside the car. If it is necessary to idle the engine for a prolonged period with people inside the car, be sure to do so only in anopen area with the air intake set at "Fresh" and the fan operating at one of the higher speeds so fresh air is drawn into the interior. If you must drive with the tail gate open because you are carrying objects that make this necessary:
1. Close all windows.
2. Open side vents.
3. Set the air intake control at "Fresh", the air flow control at "Floor" or "Face" and the fan at one of the higher speeds.
To assure proper operation of the ventilation system, be sure the ventilation air intakes located just in front of the windshield are kept clear of snow, ice, leaves or other obstructions.

o In a collision crash, an unbelted
person is significantly more likelyto die than a person wearing aseatbelt.
RISK OF ROLLOVER
WARNING:
o Utility vehicle has a significantly higher collision rate than othertype of vehicles.
o Utility vehicle have higher ground clearance and a narrower trackto make them capable of perform-ing in a wide variety of off-road applications. Specific design characteristics give them a highercentre of gravity than ordinary cars. An advantage of the higher ground clearance is a better viewof the road allowing you to antici- pate problem. They are not de- signed for cornering at the samespeeds as conventional 2-wheel drive vehicles any more than low- slung sports cars are designed toperform satisfactorily under off- road conditions. If at all possible, avoid sharp turns or abrupt ma-neuvers. As with other vehicles of this type, failure to operate this vehicle correctly may result inloss of control or vehicle rollover.
