WARNING:
o If you open the fuel filler cap during high
ambient temperatures, a slight "pres-
sure sound" may be heard. This is nor-
mal and not a cause for concern.
Whenever you open the fuel filler cap,
turn it slowly.
o Make sure the fuel filler cap is replaced
and securely seated after fueling. Failure
to replace or fully seat the fuel filler cap
will result in fuel vapors escaping into
the atmosphere and the check engine
" " indicator illuminating.
o Do not "TOP-OFF" after the first nozzle
shut off when refueling.
o Automotive fuels are flammable/explo-
sive materials. When refueling, please
note the following guidelines carefully.
- Before touching the fuel nozzle or fuel
filler cap, have one's hands in contact
with metal parts away from the filler
neck to discharge static electricity.
!
!
WARNING:
o The fuel cap must be tightened until the
cap clicks, otherwise " " light will
illuminate.
o Gasoline vapors are dangerous. Before
refueling, always stop the engine and
never allow sparks or open flames near
the filler area. If you need to replace the
filler cap, use a genuine Hyundai re-
placement part.

WARNING:
- Do not get back in the vehicle while
refueling. Do not operate anything that
can produce static electricity. Static
electricity discharge can ignite fuel
vapors resulting in an explosion.
- When using a portable fuel container,
be sure to place the container on the
ground while refueling. Static electric-
ity discharge from the container can
ignite fuel vapors causing a fire. While
starting refueling, contact should be
maintained until the filling is complete.
- Do not use cellular phones around a
gas station. The electric current or elec-
tronic interference from cellular phones
can ignite fuel vapors causing a fire.
- When refueling, always turn the engine
off. Sparks by engine compartment
electrical equipment can ignite fuel
vapors causing a fire. After refueling,
check to make sure the fuel filler cap is
securely closed, and then start the
engine.
- Do not smoke or try to light cigarettes
around a gas station. Automotive fuels
are flammable.
