FUEL RECOMMENDATIONS
B010A03A-GAT
Use Unleaded Gasoline
For Europe – For the optimal vehicle
performance, we recommend you to
use unleaded gasoline with an octane
rating of RON (Research Octane Num-
ber) 95 /AKI (Anti Knock Index) 91 or
higher.
You may use unleaded gasoline with an
octane rating of RON 91~94/AKI 87~90
but it may result in slight performance
reduction of the vehicle.
Except Europe – Unleaded gasoline
with a Pump Octane Rating of 87 (Re-
search Octane Number 91) or higher
must be used in Hyundai vehicle.
If leaded gasoline is used, it will cause
the catalytic converter to become inef-
fective and the emission control sys-
tem to malfunction.
This can also result in increased main-
tenance expense. To avoid accidental
use of leaded fuel, the large nozzle
used with leaded gasoline at service
stations can not be inserted into fuel
tank opening of Hyundai vehicle.
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.
o Octane Rating of leaded gaso-
line is same with unleaded one.

What About Gasohol?
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, 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 your
Hyundai. This type of fuel can reduce
vehicle performance and damage com-
ponents of the fuel system.
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 by
the use of methanol or fuels con-
taining methanol.
