Introduction
NOTICE indicates a situation
which, if not avoided, could result
in vehicle damage.
Petrol engine
Unleaded
For the optimal vehicle performance,
we recommend you use unleaded
petrol which 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.
NOTICE
CAUTION indicates a hazardous
situation which, if not avoided,
could result in minor or moder-
ate injury.
CAUTION
•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.
WARNING
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.)

Fuel Gauge
This gauge indicates the approxi-
mate amount of fuel remaining in the
fuel tank.
Information
• The fuel tank capacity is given inchapter 8.
• The fuel gauge is supplemented by a low fuel warning light, which will
illuminate when the fuel tank is
nearly empty.
• On inclines or curves, the fuel gauge pointer may fluctuate or the low fuel
warning light may come on earlier
than usual due to the movement of
fuel in the tank. Avoid driving with a extremely low
fuel level. Running out of fuel
could cause the engine to misfire
damaging the catalytic converter.
Outside Temperature Gauge
This gauge indicates the current out-
side air temperatures either in
Celsius (°C) or Fahrenheit.
- Temperature range : -40°C ~ 60°C
(-104°F ~ 140°F)
The outside temperature on the dis-
play may not immediately change
like a general thermometer not to
distract the driver.
The temperature unit (from °C to °F
or from °F to °C) can be changed by:
- User Settings mode in the Cluster : You can change the temperature
unit in the “Other Features -
Temperature unit” .

Engine Oil LevelWarning Light (if equipped)
The engine oil level warning light illumi-
nates when the engine oil level should be
checked.
If the warning light comes on, check the
engine oil level as soon as possible and
add engine oil as required.
Slowly pour the recommended oil little by
little into a funnel. (Oil refill capacity :
approximately 0.6 ~ 1.0 l)
Use only the specified engine oil. (Refer
to "Recommended lubricants and capac-
ities" in chapter 8.)
Do not overfill the engine oil. Make sure
the oil level is not above F (Full) mark on
the dipstick.
Information
• If you travel approximately 30 ~ 60 miles (50 km ~100 km) after the
engine warms up, after adding the
engine oil, the warning light will go
off.
(Continued)(Continued)
• Cycle the ignition from OFF to ON 3
times within 10 seconds, the warning
light will go off immediately. However,
when you turn off the warning light
without adding the engine oil, the light
will come on again after travelling
approximately 30 ~ 60 miles (50 km
~100 km) after the engine warms up.
If the light comes on continuously
after adding the engine oil and trav-
elling approximately 30 ~ 60 miles
(50~100 km) after the engine warms
up, we recommend that the system
be checked by a HYUNDAI autho-
rised repairer.
Even if this light doesn't come on
after the engine has started, the
engine oil should be checked and
supplied periodically.
Low Fuel Level Warning Light
This warning light illuminates:
When the fuel tank is nearly empty.
Add fuel as soon as possible.
Driving with the Low Fuel Level
warning light on or with the fuel
level below “0” can cause the
engine to misfire and damage the
catalytic converter (if equipped).

Maintenance
Your vehicle is equipped with a cat-
alytic converter emission control
device.
Therefore, the following precautions
must be observed:Failure to observe these precautions
could result in damage to the catalytic
converter and to your vehicle.
Additionally, such actions could void
your warranties.
• Use only UNLEADED FUEL
for petrol engine.
• Do not operate the vehicle
when there are signs of
engine malfunction, such as
misfire or a noticeable loss of
performance.
• Do not misuse or abuse the
engine. Examples of misuse
are coasting with the engine
off and descending steep
grades in gear with the engine
off.
(Continued)(Continued)
•Do not operate the engine at
high idle speed for extended
periods (5 minutes or more).
• Do not modify or tamper with
any part of the engine or
emission control system. All
inspections and adjustments
must be made by a HYUNDAI
authorised repairer.
• Avoid driving with a very low
fuel level. If you run out of
petrol, it could cause the
engine to misfire and result in
excessive loading of the cat-
alytic converter.
