Introduction
Use of MTBE
Do not use methanol
Diesel engine
Diesel fuel
We  recommend   that   fuels  containing
MTBE (Methyl Tertiary  Butyl Ether)  over
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.
Diesel engine must  be operated only  on
commercially  available  diesel   fuel  that
complies  with   EN  590  or  comparable
standard.   (EN   stands   for  "European
Norm"). Do  not  use  marine diesel  fuel,
heating oils,  or  non-approved fuel  addi-
tives,  as   this  will   increase  wear   and
cause  damage  to  the  engine  and  fuel
system. The  use of  non-approved  fuels
and / or fuel additives will result in  a limi-
tation 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 tem-
perature conditions.
15.0%
vol.   (Oxygen    Content    2.7%
weight) should not  be used in your vehi-
cle.
Fuel  containing  MTBE over  15.0%  vol.
(Oxygen   Content   2.7%   weight)   may
reduce vehicle performance and produce
vapor lock or hard starting.
Fuel Additives
HYUNDAI  recommends   that   you  use
good quality gasoline that  meets Europe
Fuel standards (EN228) or equivalents.
CAUTION
For  customers  who   do  not  use   good
quality  gasoline including  fuel  additives
regularly, and  have problems starting  or
the  engine does  not  run smoothly,  one
bottle of additives  added to the fuel tank
at every 15,000km (for Europe)/5,000km
(except Europe).  Additives are  available
from  your  authorized  HYUNDAI  dealer
along  with  information  on  how  to   use
them.
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.
•  Above  -5°C  (23°F)   ...  Summer  type
diesel fuel.
•  Below -5°C (23°F) ...Winter type diesel
fuel.
(Oxygen Content 2.7% weight.)
Operation in foreign countries
If you  are going  to drive  your vehicle  in
another country, be sure to:
Watch the fuel level in the tank very care-
fully : If the engine stops through fuel fail-
ure,   the  circuits   must   be  completely
purged to permit restarting.
Observe all  regulations regarding reg-
istration and insurance.
Determine that acceptable fuel is avail-
able.
