The fuel-filler lid may be opened from
inside the vehicle by pulling up on the
fuel-filler lid opener located on the front
floor area on the left side of the car.
NOTE:
If the fuel-filler lid will not open
because ice has formed around it,
tap lightly or push on the lid to
break the ice and release the lid. Do
not pry on the lid. If necessary,
spray around the lid with an ap-
proved de-icer fluid (do not use
radiator anti-freeze) or move the
vehicle to a warm place and allow
the ice to melt.

WARNING:
o Fuel vapors are dangerous. Be-
fore refueling, always stop the en-
gine and never allow sparks or
open flames near the filler area. If
you need to replace the filler cap,
use a genuine Hyundai replace-
ment part.
If you open the fuel filler cap dur-
ing high ambient temperatures, a
slight "pressure sound" may be
heard. This is normal and not a
cause for concern.
Whenever you open the fuel filler
cap, turn it slowly.
o Automotive fuels are flammable/
explosive materials. When refuel-
ing, please note the following
guidelines carefully. Failure to
follow these guidelines may re-
sult in severe personal injury, se-
vere burns or death by fire or
explosion.
- Before refueling always note the
location of the Emergency Gaso-
line Shut-Off, if available, at the
gas station facility.
- Before touching the fuel nozzle
or fuel filler cap, you should
eliminate potentially dangerous
static electricity discharge by
touching another metal part of
the front of the vehicle, a safe
distance away from the fuel filler
neck, nozzle, or other gas
source.
- Do not get back into a vehicle
once you have begun refueling.
Do not touch, rub or slide against
any item or fabric (polyester,
satin, nylon, etc.) capable of pro-
ducing static electricity. Static
electricity discharge can ignite
fuel vapors resulting in explo-
sion.
