    What About Gasohol?

    Gasohol (a mixture of 90% unleadedgasoline and 10% ethanol or grainalcohol) may be used in your Hyundai.However, if your engine developsdriveability problems, the use of 100%unleaded gasoline is recommended.Fuels with unspecified quantities ofalcohol, or alcohols other than ethanol,should not be used.

    B010D01S-AAT

    Do not Use Methanol

    Fuels containing methanol (wood al-cohol) should not be used in yourHyundai. This type of fuel can reducevehicle performance and damage com-ponents of the fuel system.

    B010E01A-AAT

    Gasolines for Cleaner Air

    To help contribute to cleaner air,Hyundai recommends that you usegasolines treated with detergent addi-tives, which help prevent deposit for-mation in the engine. These gasolineswill help the engine run cleaner andenhance performance of the EmissionControl System.

    B010A02A-GAT

    FUEL RECOMMENDATIONSUse Unleaded Gasoline

    Unleaded gasoline with a Pump Oc-tane Rating of 87 (Research OctaneNumber 91) or higher must be used inHyundai vehicle. If leaded gasoline isused, it will cause the catalytic con-verter to become ineffective and theemission control system to malfunc-tion.This can also result in increased main-tenance expense. To avoid accidentaluse of leaded fuel, the large nozzleused with leaded gasoline at servicestations can not be inserted into fueltank opening of Hyundai vehicle.

    NOTE:o For some countries, Hyundai ve-

    hicles are designed to use leadedgasoline. When you are going touse leaded gasoline, ask toHyundai dealer whether leadedgasoline in your vehicle is avail-able or not.

    o Octane Rating of leaded gaso-line is same with unleaded one.

    B010A02L-1

    ! CAUTION:Your Hyundai's New Vehicle Lim-ited Warranty may not cover dam-age to the fuel system and perfor-mance problems that are caused bythe use of methanol or fuels con-taining methanol.

    CHILD RESTRAINT SYSTEM(If installed)Children riding in the car should sit inthe rear seat and must always berestrained to minimize the risk of injuryin an accident, sudden stop or suddenmaneuver. According to accident sta-tistics, children are safer when prop-erly restrained in the rear seats than inthe front seat. Larger children not in achild restraint should use one of theseat belts provided.You are required by law to use safetyrestraints for children. If small childrenride in your vehicle you must put themin a child restraint system (safety seat).Children could be injured or killed in acrash if their restraints are not properlysecured. For small children and ba-bies, a child seat or infant seat must beused. Before buying a particular childrestraint system, make sure it fits yourcar seat and seat belts, and fits yourchild. Follow all the instructions pro-vided by the manufacturer when in-stalling the child restraint system.

  • 1- 24 FEATURES OF YOUR HYUNDAI

    o Children who are too large to bein a child restraint should sit inthe rear seat and be restrainedwith the available lap/shoulderbelts.Never allow children to ride inthe front passenger seat.

    o Always make sure that the shoul-der belt portion of the outboardlap/shoulder belt is positionedmidway over the shoulder, neveracross the neck. Moving the childcloser to the center of the vehiclemay help provide a good shoul-der belt fit. The lap belt portion ofthe lap/shoulder belt or the cen-ter seat lap belt must always bepositioned as low as possible onthe child's hips and as snug aspossible.

    o If the seat belt will not properly fitthe child, Hyundai recommendsthe use of an approved boosterseat in the rear seat in order toraise the child's seating heightso that the seat belt will properlyfit the child.

    WARNING:o A child restraint system must be

    placed in the rear seat. Neverinstall a child or infant seat onthe front passenger's seat.Should an accident occur andcause the passenger side airbagto deploy, it could severely in-jure or kill an infant or child seatedin an infant or child seat. Thus,only use a child restraint in therear seat of your vehicle.

    o Since a safety belt or child re-straint system can become veryhot if it is left in a closed vehicle,be sure to check the seat coverand buckles before placing achild there.

    o When the child restraint systemis not in use, store it in the trunkor fasten it with a safety belt sothat it will not be thrown forwardin the case of a sudden stop or anaccident.

    o Never allow a child to stand up orkneel on the seat.

    o Never use an infant carrier orchild safety seat that "hooks"over a seatback; it may not pro-vide adequate security in an ac-cident.

    o Never allow a child to be held ina person's arms while they are ina moving vehicle, as this couldresult in serious injury to thechild in the event of an accidentor a sudden stop. Holding a childin a moving vehicle does notprovide the child with any meansof protection during an accident,even if the person holding thechild is wearing a seat belt.

    o If the child restraint seat is notanchored properly, the risk of achild being seriously injured orkilled in a collision greatly in-creases.

    Pre-tensioner Seat BeltYour Hyundai vehicle is equipped withdriver's and front passenger's pre-tensioner seat belts. The purpose ofthe pre-tensioner is to make sure thatthe seat belts fit tightly against theoccupant's body in certain frontal col-lisions.The pre-tensioner seat belts can beactivated alone or, where the frontalcollision is severe enough, togetherwith the airbags.

    The pre-tensioner seat belt operatesin a similar way as an EmergencyLocking Retractor (ELR) type of seatbelt. When the vehicle stops suddenly,or if the occupant tries to lean forwardtoo quickly, the seat belt retractor willlock into position. However, in certainfrontal collisions, the pre-tensioner willactivate and pull the seat belt intotighter contact against the occupant'sbody.

    o Front airbags are not intended todeploy in side-impact, rear-im-pact or rollover crashes. In addi-tion, airbags will not deploy infrontal crashes below the deploy-ment threshold speed.

    o The driver should sit back as faras possible while still maintain-ing control of the vehicle. If youare sitting too close to the airbag,it can cause death or seriousinjury when it inflates.

    o No objects should be placed overor near the airbag modules onthe steering wheel, instrumentpanel, and the front passenger'spanel above the glove box,because any such object couldcause harm if the vehicle is in acrash severe enough to causethe airbags to deploy.

    o If the airbags deploy, they mustbe replaced by an authorizedHyundai dealer.

    o The SRS is designed to deploythe airbags only when an impactis sufficiently severe and whenthe impact angle is less than 30°from the forward longitudinal axisof the vehicle and will not deployin side, rear or rollover impacts.Additionally, the airbags will onlydeploy once. Thus, seat beltsmust be worn at all times.

    ! WARNING:o As its name implies, the SRS is

    designed to work with, and besupplemental to, the driver's andthe passenger's three point seatbelt systems and is not a substi-tute for them. Therefore, yourseat belts must be worn at alltimes while the vehicle is in mo-tion.

    SRS Components and Functions

    B240B01L

    The SRS consists of the following com-ponents:

    - Driver's Airbag Module- Passenger's Airbag Module- SRS Service Reminder Indicator (SRI)- SRS Control Module (SRSCM)

    The SRSCM continually monitors allelements while the ignition is "ON" todetermine if a frontal or near-frontalimpact is severe enough to requireairbag deployment.

    o For maximum safety protectionin all types of crashes, all occu-pants including the driver shouldalways wear their seat beltswhether or not an airbag is alsoprovided at their seating posi-tion to minimize the risk of se-vere injury or death in the eventof a crash. Do not sit or leanunnecessarily close to the airbagwhile the vehicle is in motion.

    o The SRS airbag system must de-ploy very rapidly to provide pro-tection in a crash. If an occupantis out of position because of notwearing a seat belt, the airbagmay forcefully contact the occu-pant causing serious or fatal in-juries.

    o Do not tamper with or discon-nect SRS wiring, or other com-ponents of the SRS system. Do-ing so could result in injury, dueto accidental firing of the airbagsor by rendering the SRS inopera-tive.

    o Do not install a child restraintsystem in the front passengerseat position. A child restraintsystem must never be placed inthe front seat. The infant or childcould be severely injured or killedby an airbag deployment in caseof an accident.

    o Do not allow children to ride inthe front passenger seat. If olderchildren (teenagers and older)must ride in the front seat, makesure they are always properlybelted and that the seat is movedback as far as possible.

    After complete inflation, the airbagimmediately starts deflating, enablingthe driver to maintain forward visibility.

    B240B03L

    The airbag modules are located bothin the center of the steering wheel andin the front passenger's panel abovethe glove box. When the SRSCM de-tects a considerable impact to the frontof the vehicle, it will automatically de-ploy the airbags.

    Upon deployment, tear seams moldeddirectly into the pad covers will sepa-rate under pressure from the expan-sion of the airbags. Further opening ofthe covers then allows full inflation ofthe airbags.

    A fully inflated airbag in combinationwith a properly worn seat belt slowsthe driver's or the passenger's forwardmotion, thus reducing the risk of heador chest injury.

    PASSENGER PRESENCEDETECTION (If installed)The passenger presence detectionsystem detects the presence of a pas-senger in the front seat. If no passen-ger is recognized on the front passen-ger seat, the deployment of the frontpassenger and/or side airbag and seatbelt pretentioner will be inhibited.This system is designed primarily toprevent the replacement of airbag com-ponents that deploy needlessly in anaccident.

    NOTE:Luggage or other cargo heavier than15 kg should not be placed on thepassenger front seat. This can al-low the deployment of the frontpassenger and/or side air bag inthe case of an accident.

    o The SRS can function only whenthe ignition key is in the "ON"position. If the SRS SRI does notcome on, or continuously re-mains on, after flashing for about6 seconds when the ignition keyis turned to the "ON" position, orafter the engine is started, comeson while driving, the SRS is notworking properly. If this occurs,have your vehicle immediatelyinspected by your Hyundaidealer.

    o Before you replace a fuse or dis-connect a battery terminal, turnthe ignition key to the "LOCK"position or remove the ignitionkey. Never remove or replace theair bag related fuse(s) when theignition key is in the "ON" posi-tion. Failure to heed this warningwill cause the SRS SRI to illumi-nate.

    WARNING:o When the SRS is activated, there

    may be a loud noise and fine dustwill be released throughout thevehicle. These conditions arenormal and are not hazardous.However, the fine dust generatedduring airbag deployment maycause skin irritation. Wash yourhands and face thoroughly withlukewarm water and a mild soapafter an accident in which theairbags were deployed.
