Your Hyundai should not be modified in any way. Such modifications may adversely affect the per-

formance, safety or durability of your Hyundai and may, in addition, violate conditions of the limited

warranties covering the vehicle. Certain modifications may also be in violation of regulations estab-

lished by the U.S. Department of Transportation and other federal or state agencies.

Your vehicle is equipped with electronic fuel injection and other electronic components. It is possible

for an improperly installed/adjusted two-way radio or cellular telephone to adversely affect electronic

tions or consult your Hyundai dealer for precautionary measures or special instructions if you choose

to install one of these devices.

Introduction

Your new vehicle is designed to use only

unleaded fuel having a pump octane

number ((R+M)/2) of 87 (Research

Octane Number 91) or higher.

Your new vehicle is designed to obtain

maximum performance with UNLEADED

FUEL, as well as minimize exhaust emis-

sions and spark plug fouling.

Gasoline containing alcohol and

methanol

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.

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.

Vehicle damage or drivability problems

may not be covered by the manufactur-

er’s warranty if they result from the use

of:

1. Gasohol containing more than 10%

ethanol.

2. Gasoline or gasohol containing

methanol.

Introduction

"E85" fuel is an alternative fuel com-

prised of 85 percent ethanol and 15 per-

cent gasoline, and is manufactured

exclusively for use in Flexible Fuel

Vehicles. “E85” is not compatible with

your vehicle. Use of “E85” may result in

poor engine performance and damage to

your vehicle's engine and fuel system.

HYUNDAI recommends that customers

do not use fuel with an ethanol content

exceeding 10 percent.

Use of MTBE

HYUNDAI recommends avoiding fuels

containing MTBE (Methyl Tertiary Butyl

Ether) over 15.0% vol. (Oxygen Content

2.7% weight) in your vehicle.

Fuel containing MTBE over 15.0% vol.

(Oxygen Content 2.7% weight) may

reduce vehicle performance and produce

vapor lock or hard starting.

Do not use methanol

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.

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.

Operation in foreign countries

If you are going to drive your vehicle in

another country, be sure to:

• Observe all regulations regarding reg-

istration and insurance.

• Determine that acceptable fuel is avail-

able.

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

containing MTBE (Methyl Tertiary

Butyl Ether) over 15.0% vol.

(Oxygen Content 2.7% weight.)

CAUTION

Never use gasohol which contains

methanol. Discontinue use of any

gasohol product which impairs dri-

vability.

CAUTION

Your New Vehicle Limited Warranty

does not cover damage to the fuel

system or any performance prob-

lems caused by the use of “E85” fuel.
