Introduction
Petrol engine
Unleaded
For the optimal vehicle performance,
we recommend you to use unleaded
petrol which has an EN 228 and has
an octane rating of RON (Research
Octane Number) 95 / AKI (Anti
Knock Index) 91 or higher.(Do not
use methanol blended fuels.)
You may use unleaded petrol with an
octane rating of RON 91-94 / AKI 87-
90 but it may result in slight perform-
ance reduction of the vehicle.
Your new vehicle is designed to
obtain maximum performance with
UNLEADED FUEL, as well as min-
imise exhaust emissions and spark
plug fouling.
Petrol containing alcohol and
methanol
Gasohol, a mixture of petrol and
ethanol (also known as grain alco-
hol), and petrol or gasohol containing
methanol (also known as wood alco-
hol) are being marketed along with or
instead of leaded or unleaded petrol.
Do not use gasohol containing more
than 10% ethanol, and do not use
petrol or gasohol containing any
methanol. Either of these fuels may
cause drivability problems and dam-
age to the fuel system, engine control
system and emission control system.
Discontinue using gasohol of any
kind if drivability problems occur.
Vehicle damage or driveability prob-
lems may not be covered by the
manufacturer’s warranty if they result
from the use of:
1. Gasohol containing more than
10% ethanol.
2. Petrol or gasohol containing
methanol.
3. Leaded fuel or leaded gasohol.
FUEL REQUIREMENTS
CAUTION
NEVER USE LEADED FUEL. The
use of leaded fuel is detrimental
to the catalytic converter and
will damage the engine control
system’s oxygen sensor and
affect emission control.
Never add any fuel system
cleaning agents to the fuel tank
other than what has been speci-
fied (We recommend that you
consult a HYUNDAI authorised
repairer for details.)
WARNING
• Do not "top off" after the noz-
zle automatically shuts off
when refuelling.
• Always check that the fuel cap
is installed securely to pre-
vent fuel spillage in the event
of an accident.

that your chest is at least 250
mm (10 inches) away from the
steering wheel.WARNING
• Use extreme caution so that
hands or other objects are not
caught in the seat mecha-
nisms whilst the seat is mov-
ing.
• Do not put a cigarette lighter
on the floor or seat. When you
operate the seat, gas may
gush out of the lighter and
cause fire.
• If there are occupants in the
rear seats, be careful whilst
adjusting the front seat posi-
tion.
• Use extreme caution when
picking small objects trapped
under the seats or between
the seat and the centre con-
sole. Your hands might be cut
or injured by the sharp edges
of the seats mechanism.

Safety features of your vehicle
Head restraint (for rear seat)
The rear seat(s) is equipped with
head restraints in all the seating
positions for the occupant's safety
and comfort.
The head restraint not only provides
comfort for passengers, but also
helps protect the head and neck in
the event of a collision.
WARNING- Cargo
Cargo should always be
secured to prevent it from being
thrown about the vehicle in a
collision and causing injury to
the vehicle occupants. Do not
place objects in the rear (2nd
and/or 3rd row) seats, since they
cannot be properly secured and
may hit the front seat occupants
in a collision.
WARNING - Cargo loading
Make sure the engine is off, the
automatic transaxle is in P (Park)
or the manual transaxle is in R
(Reverse) or 1st, and the parking
brake is securely applied when-
ever loading or unloading cargo.
Failure to take these steps may
allow the vehicle to move if the
shift lever is inadvertently
moved to another position.

WARNING
• For maximum effectiveness in
case of an accident, the head
restraint should be adjusted so
the middle of the head restraint
is at the same height as the cen-
tre of gravity of an occupant's
head. Generally, the centre of
gravity of most people's head is
similar with the height of the
top of their eyes. Also adjust the
head restraint as close to your
head as possible. For this rea-
son, the use of a cushion that
holds the body away from the
seatback is not recommended.
• Do not operate the vehicle with
the head restraints removed.
Severe injury to an occupant
may occur in the event of an
accident. Head restraints may
provide protection against
severe neck injuries when prop-
erly adjusted.

Seat belt warning
Ty p e A
As a reminder to the driver, the seat
belt warning light will blink for
approximately 6 seconds each time
you turn the ignition switch ON
regardless of belt fastening.
If the driver’s seat belt is unfastened
after the ignition switch is ON, the
seat belt warning light blinks again
for approximately 6 seconds.
1GQA2083
WARNING
• No modifications or additions
should be made by the user
which will either prevent the
seat belt adjusting devices
from operating to remove
slack, or prevent the seat belt
assembly from being adjusted
to remove slack.
• When you fasten the seat belt,
be careful not to latch the seat
belt in buckles of other seat. It's
very dangerous and you may
not be protected by the seat
belt properly.
• Do not unfasten the seat belt
and do not fasten and unfas-
ten the seat belt repeatedly
whilst driving. This could
result in loss of control, and
an accident causing death,
serious injury, or property
damage.
(Continued)
(Continued)
• When fastening the seat belt,
make sure that the seat belt
does not pass over objects that
are hard or can break easily.
• Make sure there is nothing in
the buckle. The seat belt may
not be fastened securely.

Safety features of your vehicle
Larger children
Children who are too large for child
restraint systems should always occu-
py the rear seat and use the available
lap/shoulder belts. The lap portion
should be fastened snug on the hips
and as low as possible. Check belt fit
periodically. A child's squirming could
put the belt out of position. Children
are afforded the most safety in the
event of an accident when they are
restrained by a proper restraint system
in the rear seat. If a larger child (over
age 12) must be seated in the front
seat, the child should be securely
restrained by the available lap/shoul-
der belt and the seat should be placed
in the rearmost position. Children age
12 and under should be restrained
securely in the rear seat. NEVER
place a child age 12 and under in the
front seat. NEVER place a rear facing
child seat in the front seat of a vehicle.
If the shoulder belt portion slightly
touches the child’s neck or face, try
placing the child closer to the centre of
the vehicle. If the shoulder belt still
touches their face or neck they need to
be returned to a child restraint system.
Pregnant women
The use of a seat belt is recom-
mended for pregnant women to
lessen the chance of injury in an
accident. When a seat belt is used,
the lap belt portion should be placed
as low and snugly as possible on the
hips, not across the abdomen. For
specific recommendations, consult a
physician.WARNING- Shoulder
belts on small children
• Never allow a shoulder belt to
be in contact with a child’s
neck or face whilst the vehicle
is in motion.
• If seat belts are not properly
worn and adjusted on chil-
dren, there is a risk of death or
serious injury.
WARNING - Pregnant
women
Pregnant women must never
place the lap portion of the
safety belt over the area of the
abdomen where the fetus is
located or above the abdomen
where the belt could crush the
fetus during an impact.

CHILD RESTRAINT SYSTEM (IF EQUIPPED)
Children riding in the car should sit in
the rear seat and must always be
properly restrained to minimise the
risk of injury in an accident, sudden
stop or sudden manoeuvre.
According to accident statistics, chil-
dren are safer when properly
restrained in the rear seats than in
the front seat. Larger children not in
a child restraint should use one of
the seat belts provided.
You should be aware of the specific
requirements in your country. Child
and/or infant safety seats must be
properly placed and installed in the
rear seat. You must use a commer-
cially available child restraint system
that meets the requirements of the
Safety Standards of your country.
Child restraint systems are designed
to be secured in vehicle seats by lap
belts or the lap belt portion of a
lap/shoulder belt, or by a tether
anchor and/or ISOFIX anchors (if
equipped).
Children could be injured or killed in
a crash if their restraints are not
properly secured.For small children and babies, a child
seat or infant seat must be used.
Before buying a particular child
restraint system, make sure it fits
your car seat and seat belts, and fits
your child. Follow all the instructions
provided by the manufacturer when
installing the child restraint system.
The rear seats have to be moved to
their rearmost position when using
Child Restraint System.(Continued)
• A seat belt or child restraint
system can become very hot
if it is left in a closed vehicle
on a sunny day, even if the
outside temperature does not
feel hot. Be sure to check the
seat cover and buckles before
placing a child there.
• When the child restraint sys-
tem is not in use, store it in
the luggage area or fasten it
with a seat belt so that it will
not be thrown forward in the
case of a sudden stop or an
accident.
• Children may be seriously
injured or killed by an inflating
air bag. All children, even
those too large for child
restraints, must ride in the
rear seat.
WARNING
• A child restraint system must
be placed in the rear seat.
Never install a child or infant
seat on the front passenger's
seat. Should an accident
occur and cause the passen-
ger side air bag to deploy, it
could severely injure or kill an
infant or child seated in an
infant or child seat. Thus only
use a child restraint in the
rear seat of your vehicle.

WARNING
To reduce a risk of serious or
fatal injuries:
• Children of all ages are safer
when restrained in the rear
seat. A child riding in the
front passenger seat can be
forcefully struck by an inflat-
ing air bag resulting in seri-
ous or fatal injuries.
• Always follow the instructions
for installation and use of the
child restraint maker.
• Always make sure the child
seat is secured properly in the
car and your child is securely
restrained in the child seat.
• Never hold a child in your
arms or lap when riding in a
vehicle. The violent forces cre-
ated during a crash will tear
the child from your arms and
throw the child against the
car’s interior.
(Continued)
(Continued)
• Never put a seat belt over
yourself and a child. During a
crash, the belt could press
deep into the child causing
serious internal injuries.
• Never leave children unat-
tended in a vehicle – not even
for a short time. The car can
heat up very quickly, resulting
in serious injuries to children
inside. Even very young chil-
dren may inadvertently cause
the vehicle to move, entangle
themselves in the windows, or
lock themselves or others
inside the vehicle.
• Never allow two children, or
any two persons, to use the
same seat belt.
• Children often squirm and
reposition themselves improp-
erly. Never let a child ride with
the shoulder belt under their
arm or behind their back.
Always properly position and
secure children in the rear
seat.
(Continued)(Continued)
• Never allow a child to stand-
up or kneel on the seat or
floorboard of a moving vehi-
cle. During a collision or sud-
den stop, the child can be vio-
lently thrown against the vehi-
cles interior, resulting in seri-
ous injury.
• Never use an infant carrier or
a child safety seat that
"hooks" over a seatback, it
may not provide adequate
security in an accident.
• Seat belts can become very
hot, especially when the car is
parked in direct sunlight.
Always check seat belt buck-
les before fastening them
over a child.
• After an accident, we recom-
mend that the system be
checked by a HYUNDAI autho-
rised repairer.

3. Buckle the seat belt and allow the
seat belt to take up any slack. After
installation of the child restraint
system, try to move it in all direc-
tions to be sure the child restraint
system is securely installed.
If you need to tighten the belt, pull
more webbing toward the retractor.
When you unbuckle the seat belt and
allow it to retract, the retractor will
automatically revert back to its nor-
mal seated passenger emergency
locking usage condition.

Securing a child restraint seat
with “Tether Anchor” system
(if equipped)
Child restraint hook holders are
located on the rear of the seat back.1. Route the child restraint seat teth-
er strap over the seatback.
For vehicles with adjustable head
restraints, route the tether strap
under the head restraint and
between the head restraint posts,
otherwise route the tether strap
over the top of the seatback.
2. Connect the tether strap hook to
the appropriate child restraint
hook holder and tighten to secure
the seat.
ODM032036
ODM032037
WARNING- Tether strap
Never mount more than one
child restraint to a single tether
anchor or to a single lower
anchorage point. The increased
load caused by multiple seats
may cause the tether or anchor-
age points to break, causing
serious injury or death.
WARNING
A child can be seriously injured
or killed in a collision if the
child restraint is not properly
anchored to the car and the
child is not properly restrained
in the child restraint. Always fol-
low the child seat manufactur-
er’s instructions for installation
and use.
