FUEL REQUIREMENTS
Gasoline engine
Unleaded
For Europe
For the optimal vehicle performance, we recommend you use unleaded gasoline
which has an octane rating of RON (Research Octane Number) 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. (Do
not use methanol blended fuels)
Except Europe
Your new vehicle is designed to use only unleaded fuel having an Octane Rating of
RON (Research Octane Number) 91 / AKI (Anti-Knock Index) 87 or higher. (Do not use
methanol blended fuels)
Your new vehicle is designed to obtain maximum performance with UNLEADED FUEL,
as well as minimize exhaust emissions and spark plug fouling.
CAUTION
NEVER USE LEADED FUEL. The use of leaded fuel is detrimental to the catalytic
converter and will damage the engine control system’s oxygen sensor and affect
emission control.
Never add any fuel system cleaning agents to the fuel tank other than what has
been specified (We recommend that you consult an authorized HYUNDAI dealer for
details.)
WARNING
• Do not “top off” after the nozzle automatically shuts off when refueling.
• Always check that the fuel cap is installed securely to prevent fuel spillage in the
event of an accident.
