FUEL RECOMMENDATIONS

B010A01O-GAT
Use Unleaded Gasoline
NOTE:
!
o For some countries, Hyundai
vehicles are designed to use
leaded gasoline. When you are
going to use leaded gasoline,
ask to Hyundai dealer whether
leaded gasoline in your vehicle
is available or not.
CAUTION:
o Do not let any gasoline or water
enter the tank. This would make
it necessary to drain it out and to
bleed the lines to avoid jamming
the injection pump and damag-
ing the engine.
o In winter, in order to cut down
incidents due to freezing, paraf-
fin oil may be added to the fuel if
the temperature drops to below -
10°C. Never use more than 20%
paraffin oil.
o Octane Rating of leaded gaso-
line is same with unleaded one.
Use Diesel

Hyundai vehicle. If two types of diesel
fuel are available, use summer or win-
ter fuel properly according to the fol-
lowing temperature conditions.
Unleaded gasoline with a Pump Oc-
tane Rating of 87 (Research Octane
Number 91) or higher must be used in
Hyundai vehicle. If leaded gasoline is
used, it will cause the catalytic con-
verter to become ineffective and the
emission control system to malfunc-
tion. This can also result in increased
maintenance expense. To avoid acci-
dental use of leaded fuel, the large
nozzle used with leaded gasoline at
service stations can not be inserted
into fuel tank opening of Hyundai ve-
hicle.

What About Gasohol?
o Above -5°C (23°F) ... Summer type
diesel fuel.
o Below -5°C (23°F) ... Winter type
diesel fuel.
Gasohol (a mixture of 90% unleaded
gasoline and 10% ethanol or grain
alcohol) may be used in your Hyundai.
However, if your engine develops
driveability problems, the use of 100%
unleaded gasoline is recommended.
Fuels with unspecified quantities of
alcohol,oralcoholsotherthanethanol,
should not be used.
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.
