Diesel engine
Diesel fuel
Diesel engine must be operated only
on commercially available diesel fuel
that complies with EN 590 or compa-
rable standard. (EN stands for
"European Norm"). Do not use
marine diesel fuel, heating oils, or
non-approved fuel additives, as this
will increase wear and cause dam-
age to the engine and fuel system.
The use of non-approved fuels and /
or fuel additives will result in a limita-
tion of your warranty rights.
Diesel fuel of above cetane 51 is
used in your vehicle. If two types of
diesel fuel are available, use summer
or winter fuel properly according to
the following temperature conditions.
• Above -5°C (23°F) ... Summer typediesel fuel.
• 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.
Biodiesel
Commercially supplied Diesel blends
of no more than 7% biodiesel, com-
monly known as "B7 Diesel" may be
used in your vehicle if Biodiesel
meets EN 14214 or equivalent spec-
ifications. (EN stands for "European
Norm"). The use of biofuels exceed-
ing 7% made from rapeseed methyl
ester (RME), fatty acid methyl ester
(FAME), vegetable oil methyl ester
(VME) etc. or mixing diesel exceed-
ing 7% with biodiesel will cause
increased wear or damage to the
engine and fuel system. Repair or
replacement of worn or damaged
components due to the use of non
approved fuels will not be covered by
the manufactures warranty.

Introduction
Do not let any petrol or water
enter the tank. This would make
it necessary to drain it out and
to bleed the lines to avoid jam-
ming the injection pump and
damaging the engine.
CAUTION
Diesel Fuel
(if equipped with DPF)
It is recommended to use the
regulated automotive diesel
fuel for diesel vehicle equipped
with the DPF system.
If you use diesel fuel including
high sulfur (more than 50 ppm
sulfur) and unspecified addi-
tives, it can cause the DPF sys-
tem to be damaged and white
smoke can be emitted.

Maintenance
Diesel particulate filter (DPF) (if equipped)
The Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF)
system removes the soot in the
exhaust gas. Unlike a disposable air
filter, the DPF system automatically
burns (oxidizes) and removes the
accumulated soot according to the
driving condition. In order words, the
active burning by engine control sys-
tem and high exhaust gas tempera-
ture caused by normal/high diving
condition burns and removes the
accumulated soot.
However, if the vehicle continues to
be driven at repeated short distance
or driven at low speed for a long
time, the accumulated soot may not
be automatically removed because
of low exhaust gas temperature.
More than a certain amount of soot
deposited, the malfunction indicator
light ( ) illuminates.
When the malfunction indicator light
illuminates, it may turn-off after driv-
ing the vehicle at more than 60km/h
(37 mph) or at more than second
gear with 1500~2500 engine rpm for
a certain time (for about 25 minutes). If the malfunction indicator light
( ) continues to be blinked or the
warning massage “Check exhaust
system” illuminates in spite of the
procedure, visit a professional work-
shop and check the DPF system.
HYUNDAI
recommends to visit a
HYUNDAI authorised repairer/serv-
ice partner.
If you continue to drive with the mal-
function indicator light blinking for a
long time, the DPF system can be
damaged and fuel consumption can
be worsen and the engine durability
can be worsen by oil dilution.Diesel Fuel
(if equipped with DPF)
We recommend you to use only
the regulated diesel fuels, when
your vehicle is equipped with
the DPF system.
When you use other diesel
fuels, which is high in sulfurs
(above 50 ppm) or contains
unspecified additives, it may
damage the DPF system and
cause the white smoke emis-
sion.
