Vehicle damage or drivability problems

may not be covered by the manufactur-

er’s warranty if they result from the use

of:

CAUTION

Leaded (if equipped)

NEVER USE LEADED FUEL. The

use of leaded fuel is detrimental to

the catalytic converter and will

damage the engine control sys-

tem’s oxygen sensor and affect

emission control.

For some countries, your vehicle is

designed to use leaded gasoline. When

you are going to use leaded gasoline,

ask to an authorized HYUNDAI dealer

whether leaded gasoline in your vehicle

is available or not.

1. Gasohol containing more than 10%

ethanol.

2. Gasoline or gasohol containing

methanol.

Never add any fuel system cleaning

agents to the fuel tank other than

what has been specified. (Consult

an authorized HYUNDAI dealer for

details.)

Octane Rating of leaded gasoline is

same with unleaded one.

3. Leaded fuel or leaded gasohol. (except

for vehicle designed to use leaded

gasoline for some countries)

A020103APA

Gasoline containing alcohol and

methanol

CAUTION

Never use gasohol which contains

methanol. Discontinue use of any

gasohol product which impairs dri-

vability.

Gasohol, a mixture of gasoline and

ethanol (also known as grain alcohol),

and gasoline or gasohol containing

methanol (also known as wood alcohol)

are being marketed along with or instead

of leaded or unleaded gasoline.

WARNING

• Do not "top off" after the nozzle

automatically shuts off when

refueling.

• Always check that the fuel cap is

installed securely to prevent fuel

spillage in the event of an acci-

dent.

Do not use gasohol containing more than

10% ethanol, and do not use gasoline or

gasohol containing any methanol. Either

of these fuels may cause drivability prob-

lems and damage to the fuel system.

Discontinue using gasohol of any kind if

drivability problems occur.

Operation in foreign countries

If you are going to drive your vehicle in

another country, be sure to:

Use of MTBE

Do not use methanol

HYUNDAI recommends avoiding fuels

containing MTBE (Methyl Tertiary Butyl

Ether) over 15.0% vol. (Oxygen Content

2.7% weight) in your vehicle.

Fuels containing methanol (wood alco-

hol) should not be used in your vehicle.

This type of fuel can reduce vehicle per-

formance and damage components of

the fuel system.

• Observe all regulations regarding reg-

istration and insurance.

Fuel containing MTBE over 15.0% vol.

(Oxygen Content 2.7% weight) may

reduce vehicle performance and produce

vapor lock or hard starting.

• Determine that acceptable fuel is avail-

able.

CAUTION

Your New Vehicle Limited Warranty

may not cover damage to the fuel

system and performance problems

that are caused by the use of

methanol or fuels containing

methanol.

CAUTION

Your New Vehicle Limited Warranty

may not cover damage to the fuel

system and any performance prob-

lems that are caused by the use of

fuels containing methanol or fuels

(Oxygen Content 2.7% weight.)

A020106AEN

Gasolines for cleaner air

To help contribute to cleaner air,

HYUNDAI recommends that you use

gasolines treated with detergent addi-

tives, which help prevent deposit forma-

tion in the engine. These gasolines will

help the engine run cleaner and enhance

performance of the Emission Control

System.
