WARRANTIES FOR YOUR HYUNDAI VEHICLE


Please consult your Owner's Handbook & Warranty Information booklet for your vehicle's spe- cific warranty coverage.


RESPONSIBILITY FOR MAINTENANCE


The maintenance requirements for your new Hyundai are found in Section 7. As the owner, it is your responsibility to see that all maintenance operations specified by the manufacturer are carried out at the appropriate intervals. When the vehicle is used in severe driving conditions, more frequent main- tenance is required for some operations. Maintenance requirements for severe operating conditions are also included in Section 7.


A070A01A-AAT


CAUTION: MODIFICATIONS TO YOUR HYUNDAI


Your Hyundai should not be modified in any way. Such modifications may adversely affect the performance, 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 established by the U.S. Department of Transportation and other federal or state agencies.


A080A01S-AAT


TWO-WAY RADIO OR CELLULAR TELEPHONE INSTALLATION


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 systems.

A110A01A-AAT


VEHICLE DATA COLLECTION AND EVENT DATA RECORDERS


Your Hyundai vehicle is equipped with many high technology, electronically controlled systems that help to ensure your vehicle operates properly and provides the performance that you expect. These systems utilize computers to monitor the operation of various systems and components and help to control their operation. These computerized system operations are wide-ranging and involve components to reduce emissions, to continuously evaluate the readiness of the air bag and seat belt pretensioner systems, to determine when the air bag and seat belt pre-tensioner systems should be deployed and then to activate the deployment, and if equipped, to operate anti-lock braking, traction control and electrical stability control to assist the driver to control the vehicle in difficult driving situations. These systems electronically store information that is useful to service technicians when they need to diagnose and repair these systems. Additional information is stored only when a crash occurs that results in the deployment of the air bags or seat belt pre-tensioners. This type of data storage is done by devices called event data recorders(EDR).


After a crash event, the air bag and seat belt pre-tensioner computer system, known as the Supplemental Restraint System Control Module (SRSCM) or Air bag Control Unit (ACU), may record some information about the condition of the vehicle and how it was being operated. This information consists of data related to seat belt usage and if there was diagnostic information in the air bag or seat belt systems at the time that a crash occurred, and if the ACU sensed that a crash of sufficient severity occurred to require seat belt pre-tensioner or air bag deployment.


To retrieve this information, special equipment is needed and access to the vehicle or the device that stores the data is required. Hyundai will not access information about a crash event or share it with others except:


o in response to an official request of police or similar government office, or o with the consent of the vehicle owner or, if the vehicle is leased, with the consent of the lessee,


or


o as part of Hyundai’s defense of litigation, or o as required by law.

FUEL RECOMMENDATIONS


B010A02CM-AAT Use Unleaded Gasoline


UNLEADED FUEL ONLY


WARNING:


o Do not "top off" after the nozzle auto-


matically shuts off when refueling.


o Tighten the cap until it clicks, other-


wise the "


" light will illuminate.


o Always check that the fuel cap is installed securely to prevent fuel spill- age in the event of an accident.


OCM051001R Unleaded gasoline with a Pump Octane Rating of 87(Research Octane Number 91) or Higher must be used.


B010B01A-AAT What About Gasohol? Gasohol (a mixture of 90% unleaded gaso- line and 10% ethanol or grain alcohol) may be used in your Hyundai. However, if your engine develops driveability prob- lems, the use of 100% unleaded gasoline is recommended. Fuels with unspecified quantities of alcohol, or alcohols other than ethanol, should not be used.


B010C01A-AAT Use of MTBE Hyundai recommends that fuels contain- ing MTBE (Methyl Tertiary Butyl Ether) over 15.0% vol. (Oxygen Content 2.7% weight) should not be used in your Hyundai. Fuel containing MTBE over 15.0% vol. (Oxygen Content 2.7% weight) may re- duce vehicle performance and produce vapor lock or hard starting.


B010D01A-AAT Do Not Use Methanol Fuels containing methanol (wood alco- hol) should not be used in your Hyundai. This type of fuel can reduce vehicle perfor- mance and damage components of the fuel system.


CAUTION:


Your Hyundai's New Vehicle Limited War- ranty may not cover damage to the fuel system and any performance problems that are caused by the use of fuels con- taining methanol or fuels containing MTBE (Methyl Tertiary Butyl Ether) over 15.0% vol. (Oxygen Content 2.7% weight.)


FEATURES OF YOUR HYUNDAI


KEYS


B030A01A-AAT


OMC025001
For greater convenience, the same key operates all the locks in your Hyundai. However, because the doors can be locked without a key, carrying a spare key is recommended in case you accidentally lock one key inside the car.


B010E01A-AAT Gasolines for Cleaner Air To help contribute to cleaner air, Hyundai recommends that you use gasolines treated with detergent additives, which help prevent deposit formation in the en- gine. These gasolines will help the engine run cleaner and enhance performance of the Emission Control System.


BREAKING IN YOUR NEW HYUNDAI


B020A01S-AAT During the First 1,200 Miles (2,000
Km) No formal "break-in" procedure is required with your new Hyundai. However, you can contribute to the economical operation and durability of your Hyundai by observ- ing the following recommendations dur- ing the first 1,200 miles (2,000 km).


B010F01A-AAT Operation in Foreign Countries If you are going to drive your Hyundai in another country, be sure to:


o Observe all regulations regarding reg-


avoid hard stops.


istration and insurance.


o Determine that acceptable fuel is avail-


able.


o Don't drive faster than 55 MPH (88 km/


h).


o While driving, keep your engine speed (rpm, or revolutions per minute) be- tween 2,000 rpm and 4,000 rpm.


o Use moderate acceleration. Don't start quickly or depress the accelerator pedal fully.


o For the first 200 miles (300 km), try to


o Don't lug the engine (in other words, don't drive so slowly in too high a gear that the engine "bucks"-shift to a lower gear).


o Whether going fast or slow, vary your


speed from time to time.


o Don't let the engine idle longer than 3


minutes at one time.


o Don't tow a trailer during the first 1,200


miles (2,000 km) of operation.


1FEATURES OF YOUR HYUNDAI


B030B01NF-GAT Record Your Key Number


B030B01MC A code number is attached on the number tag that came with the keys to your Hyundai. This key number tag should not be left with the keys but kept in a safe place, not in the vehicle. The key number should also be recorded in a place where it can be found in an emergency. If you need additional keys, or if you should lose your keys, your authorized Hyundai dealer can make new keys if you can supply the key number.


IMMOBILIZER SYSTEM


B880A01TG-AAT (If Installed) The immobilizer system is an anti-theft device, designed to deter automobile theft.

1. To activate the password, turn the igni- tion key "ON" and "OFF" according to the digit numbers. The immobilizer indi- cator will blink along with the operation of the ignition key. For example, turn the ignition key once for digit number "1", and twice for "2", and so on. For the digit number "0", you must cycle the ignition key 10 times.


2. Wait for 3~10 seconds. 3. You may set the remaining number of


digits by following steps 1 and 2.


4. If all of the four password digits have been successfully entered, turn the ig- nition key "ON" and check that the im- mobilizer indicator illuminates. From this time, you have to start your engine within 30 seconds. If you try to start your engine after 30 seconds, your engine will not start.


NOTE: If the engine stalls while driving in the "limp home" mode, you can start your engine within 2.5 seconds without re- entering the password.


If the immobilizer indicator blinks for five seconds, you must re-enter the password (steps 1~4).


After performing the limp home activation procedure, consult with your authorized Hyundai dealer as soon as possible.


CAUTION:


o If the password is entered incorrectly three consecutive times, wait for about one hour to perform the limp home activation procedure again.


o If you cannot start your engine using the limp home activation procedure, have your vehicle towed by an autho- rized Hyundai dealer.

SEATS


B080A02A-AAT Adjustable Front Seats


! WARNING:


o Never adjust the driver’s seat while the vehicle is moving. Any sudden or unexpected movement of the seat could cause you to lose control of the vehicle resulting in an accident. Only adjust the driver’s seat when the ve- hicle is stationary.


o Do not sit or lean unnecessarily close to the air bag. Position the seat so that you can sit as far back as possible from the air bag and still comfortably reach all controls.


B080B04A-AAT Front Seat Adjusting seat forward and rearward


WARNING:


After adjusting the seat, always check that it is securely locked into place by attempting to move the seat forward or rearward without using the lock release lever. Sudden or unexpected move- ment of the driver's seat could cause you to lose control of the vehicle result- ing in an accident.


HNF2032
To move the seat toward the front or rear, pull the lock release lever upward. This will release the seat on its track so you can move it forward or rearward to the desired position. When you find the position you want, release the lever and slide the seat forward or rearward on its track until it locks into the desired position and cannot be moved further.


B080C03A-AAT Adjusting Seatback Angle


HNF2033


To recline the seatback, lean forward to take your weight off it, then pull up on the recliner control lever at the outside edge of the seat. Now lean back until the desired seatback angle is achieved. To lock the seatback into position, release the recliner control lever.


! WARNING:


Riding with a reclined seatback in- creases your chance of serious or fatal injuries in the event of a collision or sudden stop. The protection of your re- straint system (seat belts and air bags) is greatly reduced by reclining your seat. Seat belts must be snug against your hips and chest to work properly. The more the seatback is reclined, the greater the chance that an occupant's hips will slide under the lap belt or the occupant's neck will strike the shoulder belt. Driv- ers and passengers should always sit well back in their seats, properly belted, and with the seatbacks upright.

1FEATURES OF YOUR HYUNDAI 18


WARNING:


B080D01JM


o For maximum effectiveness in case of an accident, the headrest should be adjusted so the middle of the head- rest is at the same height of the center of gravity of an occupant's head. Gen- erally, the center of gravity of most people's head is similar with the height of the top of their eyes. Also, adjust the headrest as close to your head as possible. For this reason, the use of a cushion that holds the body away from the seatback is not recommended.


! WARNING:


o Do not operate vehicle with the head- rests removed as injury to the occu- pants may occur in the event of an accident. Headrests may provide pro- tection against neck injuries when properly adjusted.

SEAT BELTS


B150A03S-AAT Seat Belt Precautions


WARNING:


All occupants of the vehicle must wear their seat belts at all times. Seat belts and child restraints reduce the risk of serious or fatal injuries for all occupants in the event of a collision or sudden stop. Without a seat belt, occupants could be shifted too close to a deploying air bag, strike the interior structure or be thrown from the vehicle. Properly worn seat belts greatly reduce these hazards. Even with advanced air bags, unbelted occu- pants can be severely injured by a de- ploying air bag. Always follow the pre- cautions about seat belts, air bags and occupant safety contained in this manual.

B150B04Y-AAT Infant or Small Child All 50 states have child restraint laws. You should be aware of the specific require- ments in your state. Child and/or infant safety seats must be properly placed and installed in the rear seat. Information about the use of these restraints begins on page 1-33.


! WARNING:


Every person in your vehicle needs to be properly restrained at all times, includ- ing infants and children. Never hold a child in your arms or lap when riding in a vehicle. The violent forces created dur- ing a crash will tear the child from your arms and throw the child against the interior. Always use a child restraint appropriate for your child's height and weight.


1FEATURES OF YOUR HYUNDAI 28


NOTE: Small children are best protected from injury in an accident when properly re- strained in the rear seat by a child re- straint system that meets the require- ments of the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards. Before buying any child restraint system, make sure that it has a label certifying that it meets Fed- eral Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 213. The restraint must be appropriate for your child's height and weight. Check the label on the child restraint for this information. See page 1-33.


B150C02A-AAT Larger Children Children who are too large for child re- straint systems should always occupy the rear seat and use the available lap/shoul- der belts. The lap portion should be fas- tened snug on the hips and as low as possible. Check belt fit periodically. A child's squirming could put the belt out of position. Children are afforded the most safety in the event of an accident when they are restrained by a proper restraint system in the rear seat. If a larger child (over age 13) must be seated in the front seat, the child should be securely re- strained by the available lap/shoulder belt and the seat should be placed in the rearmost position. Children under the age of 13 should be restrained securely in the rear seat. NEVER place a child under the age of 13 in the front seat. NEVER place a rear facing child seat in the front seat of a vehicle.


B150D01A-AAT Pregnant Women The use of a seat belt is recommended for pregnant women to lessen the chance of injury in an accident. When a seat belt is used, the lap belt portion should be placed as low and snugly as possible on the hips, not across the abdomen. For specific rec- ommendations, consult a physician.


B150E01A-AAT Injured Person A seat belt should be used when an injured person is being transported. When this is necessary, you should consult a physician for recommendations.


B150F01A-AAT One Person Per Belt Two people (including children) should never attempt to use a single seat belt. This could increase the severity of injuries in case of an accident.


B150G02A-AAT Do Not Lie Down To reduce the chance of injuries in the event of an accident and to achieve maxi- mum effectiveness of the restraint system, all passengers should be sitting up and the front seats should be in an upright position when the car is moving. A seat belt cannot provide proper protection if the person is lying down in the rear seat or if the front seat is in a reclined position.


WARNING:


Riding with a reclined seatback in- creases your chance of serious or fatal injuries in the event of a collision or sudden stop. The protection of your restraint system (seat belts and air bags) is greatly reduced by reclining your seat. Seat belts must be snug against your hips and chest to work properly. The more the seatback is re- clined, the greater the chance that an occupant's hips will slide under the lap belt causing serious internal injuries or the occupant's neck could strike the shoulder belt. Drivers and passengers should always sit well back in their seats, properly belted (see page 1-31), and with the seatbacks upright.

B160A02A-AAT Care of Seat Belts Seat belt systems should never be disas- sembled or modified. In addition, care should be taken to assure that seat belts and belt hardware are not damaged by seat hinges, doors or other abuse.


WARNING:


When you return the rear seatback to its upright position after the rear seatback was folded down, be careful not to dam- age the seat belt webbing or buckle. Be sure that the webbing or buckle does not get caught or pinched in the rear seat. A seat belt with damaged webbing or buckle will not be as strong and could possibly fail during a collision or sudden stop, resulting in serious injury.

B160B01A-AAT Periodic Inspection It is recommended that all seat belts be inspected periodically for wear or damage of any kind. Parts of the system that are damaged should be replaced as soon as possible.


B160C01A-AAT Keep Belts Clean and Dry Seat belts should be kept clean and dry. If belts become dirty, they can be cleaned by using a mild soap solution and warm wa- ter. Bleach, dye, strong detergents or abra- sives should not be used because they may damage and weaken the fabric.


B160D01A-AAT When to Replace Seat Belts Entire in-use seat belt assembly or assem- blies should be replaced if the vehicle has been involved in an accident. This should be done even if no damage is visible. Additional questions concerning seat belt operation should be directed to your Hyundai Dealer.

If there is a sudden stop or impact, how- ever, the belt will lock into position. It will also lock if you try to lean forward too quickly.


NOTE: o If you are not able to pull out the seat belt from the retractor, firmly pull the belt out and release it. Then you will be able to pull the belt out smoothly.


o If the driver's seat belt is not fastened when the ignition key is in the "ON" position, the seat belt warning light will flash and the warning chime will sound for approximately six seconds. See page 1-66.


! WARNING:


o Verify the shoulder belt anchor is locked into position at the appropriate height. Never position the shoulder belt across your neck or face. Im- properly positioned seat belts can cause serious injuries in an accident. o Failure to replace seat belts after an accident could leave you with dam- aged seat belts that will not provide protection in the event of another collision leading to personal injury or death. Replace your seat belts after being in an accident as soon as pos- sible.


B180A01CM-AAT SEAT BELT-Driver's 3-Point System with Emergency Locking Retractor To fasten your belt


B180A01NF To fasten your seat belt, pull it out of the retractor and insert the metal tab into the buckle. There will be an audible "click" when the tab locks into the buckle. The seat belt automatically adjusts to the proper length only after the lap belt portion is adjusted manually so that it fits snugly around your hips. If you lean forward in a slow, easy motion, the belt will extend and let you move around.

B190A01CM-AAT SEAT BELTS-Front Passenger and Rear Seat 3-Point System with Convertible Locking Retractor Convertible retractor type seat belts are installed in the rear seat positions to help accommodate the installation of child re- straint systems. Although a convertible re- tractor is also installed in the front passen- ger seat position, Hyundai strongly recom- mends that children always be seated in the rear seat. NEVER place any infant restraint system in the front seat of the vehicle. This type of seat belt combines the fea- tures of both an emergency locking retrac- tor seat belt and an automatic locking retractor seat belt. To fasten your seat belt, pull it out of the retractor and insert the metal tab into the buckle. There will be an audible "click" when the tab locks into the buckle. When not securing a child restraint, the seat belt operates in the same way as the driver's seat belt (Emergency Locking Retractor Type). It automatically adjusts to the proper length only after the lap belt portion of the seat belt is adjusted manu- ally so that it fits snugly around your hips.


When the seat belt is fully extended from the retractor to allow the installation of a child restraint system, the seat belt opera- tion changes to allow the belt to retract, but not to extend (Automatic Locking Retrac- tor Type). See page 1-39.


NOTE: Although the convertible retractor pro- vides the same level of protection for seated passengers in either emergency or automatic locking modes, it is recom- mended that seated passengers use the emergency locking feature for improved convenience. The automatic locking function is intended to facilitate child restraint installation. To convert from the automatic locking feature to the emergency locking operation mode, al- low the unbuckled seat belt to fully re- tract.


! WARNING:


o For maximum restraint system pro- tection, the seat belts must always be used whenever the car is moving.


o Children age 12 and younger must always be properly restrained in the rear seat. Never allow children to ride in the front passenger seat. If a child over 13 must be seated in the front seat, he/she must be properly belted and the seat should be moved as far back as possible.


o Never wear the shoulder belt under your arm or behind your back. An improperly positioned shoulder belt can cause serious injuries in a crash. The shoulder belt should be positioned midway over your shoulder across your collarbone.


o Avoid wearing twisted seat belts. A twisted belt can't do its job as well. In a collision, it could even cut into you. Be sure the belt webbing is straight and not twisted.


o Be careful not to damage the belt webbing or hardware. If the belt web- bing or hardware is damaged, replace it.

B200A01NF


WARNING:


You should place the lap belt portion as low as possible and snugly across your hips, not on your waist. If the lap belt is located too high on your waist, it may increase the chance of injury in the event of a collision. Both arms should not be under or over the belt. Rather, one should be over and the other under, as shown in the illustration. Never wear the seat belt under the arm nearest the door.

CHILD RESTRAINT SYSTEM


33


B230A01CM-AAT Children riding in the car should sit in the rear seat and must always be properly restrained to minimize the risk of injury in an accident, sudden stop or sudden ma- neuver. According to accident statistics provided by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), children are safer when properly restrained in the rear seats than in the front seat. Larger children not in a child restraint should use one of the seat belts provided. All 50 states have child restraint laws. You should be aware of the specific require- ments in your state. Child and/or infant safety seats must be properly placed and installed in the rear seat. You must use a commercially available child restraint sys- tem that meets the requirements of the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (FMVSS). Child restraint systems are de- signed to be secured in vehicle seats by lap belts or the lap belt portion of a lap/ shoulder belt, or by a LATCH system (if installed). Children could be injured or killed in a crash if their restraints are not properly secured. For small children and babies, a child seat or infant seat must be used. Before buying a particular child restraint system, make sure it fits your car seat and seat belts, and fits your child. Follow all the instructions provided by the manufacturer when installing the child restraint system.


1FEATURES OF YOUR HYUNDAI 34


! WARNING:


o A child restraint system must be placed in the rear seat. Never install a child or infant seat on the front passenger's seat. Should an accident occur and cause the passenger side air bag to deploy, it could severely injure or kill an infant or child seated in an infant or child seat. Thus only use a child restraint in the rear seat of your vehicle.


o A safety belt or child restraint system can become very hot if it is left in a closed vehicle on a sunny day, even if the outside temperature does not feel hot. Be sure to check the seat cover and buckles before placing a child there.


o When the child restraint system is not in use, store it in the luggage compart- ment or fasten it with a safety belt so that it will not be thrown forward in the case of a sudden stop or an accident. o Children may be seriously injured or killed by an inflating air bag. All chil- dren, even those too large for child restraints, must ride in the rear seat.


! WARNING:


To reduce the chance or serious or fatal injuries: o Children of all ages are safer when restrained in the rear seat. A child riding in the front passenger seat can be forcefully struck by an inflating air bag resulting in serious or fatal inju- ries.


o Always follow the instructions for in- stallation and use of the child restraint maker.


o Always make sure the child seat is secured properly in the car and your child is securely restrained in the child seat.


WARNING:


o Never hold a child in your arms or lap when riding in a vehicle. The violent forces created during a crash will tear the child from your arms and throw the child against the car’s interior.


o Never put a seat belt over yourself and a child. During a crash, the belt could press deep into the child caus- ing serious internal injuries.


o Never leave children unattended in a vehicle – not even for a short time. The car can heat up very quickly, resulting in serious injuries to chil- dren inside. Even very young chil- dren may inadvertently cause the vehicle to move, entangle themselves in the windows, or lock themselves or others inside the vehicle.


o Never allow two children, or any two persons, to use the same seat belt. o Children often squirm and reposition themselves improperly. Never let a child ride with the shoulder belt under their arm or behind their back. Al- ways properly position and secure children in rear seat.
