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.

o Although it is harmless, the fine
dust may cause skin irritation and should not be breathed for pro- longed periods. Wash your hands and face thoroughly after an acci-dent in which the pre-tensioner seat belts were activated.

CAUTION:
o Because the sensor that activates the SRS airbag is connected with pre-tensioner seat belt, the SRS airbag warning light on the instrument panel will illuminatefor approximately 6 seconds after the ignition key has been turned to the "ON" position, and then itshould turn off.
o If pre-tensioner seat belt is not
working properly, this warninglight will illuminate even if there is no malfunction of the SRS airbag. If the SRS airbag warning lightdoes not illuminate when the igni- tion key is turned to "ON", or if it blinks for a second and remainsilluminated after illuminating for approximately 6 seconds, or if it illuminates while the vehicle isbeing driven, please have an authorised Hyundai dealer inspect the pre-tensioner seat belt or SRSairbag system as soon as pos- sible. WARNING:
o Pre-tensioners are designed to operate once only. After activa-tion, pre-tensioner seat belts must be replaced. All seat belts, of anytype, should always be replaced after they have been worn during a collision.
o The pre-tensioner seat belt assem- bly mechanisms become hot dur-ing activation. Do not touch thepre-tensioner seat belt assemblies for several minutes after they have been activated.
o Do not attempt to inspect or re- place the pre-tensioner seat beltsyourself. This must be done by anauthorised Hyundai dealer.
o Do not strike the pre-tensioner seat
belt assemblies.
o Do not attempt to service or repair the pre-tensioner seat belt systemin any manner.

B240A02CM o The SRS airbag system must de-
ploy very rapidly to provide pro- tection in a crash. If an occupant is out of position because of not wearing a seat belt, the airbag mayforcefully contact the occupant causing serious or fatal injuries.
B240B01MC-DAT SRS Components and Functions The SRS consists of the following com- ponents: - Driver's Airbag Module - Passenger's Airbag Module- SRS Service Reminder Indicator (SRI) - SRS Control Module (SRSCM) The SRSCM continually monitors all elements while the ignition is "ON" to determine if a frontal or near-frontalimpact is severe enough to require airbag deployment. B240B01L-R
o Front airbags are not intended to
deploy in side-impact, rear-impact or rollover crashes. In addition, airbags will not deploy in frontal crashes below the deploymentthreshold speed.
o For maximum safety in event of
collision, all occupants shouldwear their seat belts to minimise the risk of severe injury or death. Do not sit or lean unnecessarilyclose to the airbag while the ve- hicle is in motion. Rear impact

The SRS service reminder indicator (SRI) on the instrument panel will illumi-nate for about 6 seconds after the ignition key is turned to the "ON" posi- tion or after the engine is started, afterwhich the SRI should go out.
B240B02L-R B240B03L-R
Upon deployment, tear seams moldeddirectly into the pad covers will sepa- rate under pressure from the expansion of the airbags. Further opening of the covers then allows full inflation of the airbags. A fully inflated airbag in combination with a properly worn seat belt slows thedriver's or the passenger's forward mo- tion, thus reducing the risk of head or chest injury. After complete inflation, the airbag im- mediately starts deflating, enabling thedriver to maintain forward visibility. CAUTION:
When installing a container of liquidair freshener inside the vehicle, donot place it near the instrument clus- ter nor on the instrument panel pad surface. If there is any leakage fromthe air freshener onto these areas (Instrument cluster, instrument panel pad or air ventilator), it may damagethese parts. If the liquid from the air freshener does leak onto these ar- eas, wash them with water immedi-ately.
!
Passenger's Airbag
The airbag modules are located both in the centre of the steering wheel and in the front passenger's panel above the glove box. When the SRSCM detects aconsiderable impact to the front of the vehicle, it will automatically deploy the airbags.

B240C01JM-DAT SRS Care The SRS is virtually maintenance-free and so there are no parts you can safelyservice by yourself. If the SRS SRI (Service Reminder Indicator) does not come on, or continuously remains on,have your vehicle immediately in- spected by your authorised Hyundai dealer. Any work on the SRS system, such as removing, installing, repairing, or anywork on the steering wheel must be performed by a qualified Hyundai tech- nician. Improper handling of the SRSsystem may result in serious personal injury.
o Do not install any accessories or
children’s toys in the Curtain Airbag deployment zones, as this may impair the operation of the system or throw parts of them intothe vehicle cabin causing injury to occupants if the system is de- ployed.
o To maintain the integrity of the Curtain Airbag system, any work,removal or installation of theairbag and associated compo- nents (such as roof lining and side trims) should always be performed by a qualified vehicle repairer.
1JBH3051L
