Introduction
Gasoline containing MMT
Some gasoline contains harmful
manganese-based fuel additives
such as
(Methylcyclopentadienyl Manganese
Tricarbonyl). HYUNDAI does not rec-
ommend to use gasoline containing
MMT. This type of fuel may reduce
vehicle performance and affect your
emission control system.
The malfunction indicator lamp on
the cluster may illuminate.
Do not use methanol
Fuels containing methanol (wood
alcohol) should not be used. This
type of fuel may reduce vehicle per-
formance and damage the fuel sys-
tem components, engine control sys-
tem and emission control system.
CAUTION
Your New Vehicle
Warranty may not cover dam-
age to the fuel system and any
performance problems that are
caused by the use of fuels con-
taining methanol.

Fuel Additives
HYUNDAI recommends you to use
high-quality gasoline, treated with
MMT detergent additives such as TOP TIER
Detergent Gasoline. This prevents
deposit formation in the engine. These
types of gasoline will help to clean the
engine and to enhance performance
of the Emission Control System. For
more information on TOP TIER
Detergent Gasoline, please go to the
website (www.toptiergas.com).
For drivers, who do not regularly use
TOP TIER Detergent Gasoline and
have problems, such as hard starting
or rough engine running, gasoline
additives can be separately added.
When TOP TIER Detergent Gasoline
is unavailable, one bottle of additives
is recommended at every 7,500 miles
or in every 12 months.
Additives are available from your
authorized EQUUS dealer along with
information on how to use them. Do
Limited
not mix it with other additives.
Operation in foreign countries
When you plan to drive your vehicle
in another country, make sure to:
• Check all regulations, regarding
registrations and insurances.
• Find out whether the acceptable
fuel is available.
