WARNING:
o Gasoline vapors are dangerous. Before
refueling, always stop the engine and
never smoke or allow sparks and open
flames near the filler area.
o Never operate your vehicle without a
filler cap properly installed, flammable
vapors and gasoline could leak out in
dangerous situations such as a collision
or rollover. If the filler cap must be
replaced, only use genuine Hyundai re-
placement parts.
o After refueling, make sure the fuel cap is
installed securely to prevent fuel spill-
age in the event of an accident
o Tighten the cap until it clicks, otherwise
the "
" light will illuminate
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 Do not "top off" after the nozzle auto-
matically shuts 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.
- 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.
