REMOTE FUEL-FILLER LID RELEASE
B560A02S-AAT
B560A01A-1
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 approved 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 The fuel cap must be tightened at least
3 clicks, otherwise " " light will
illuminate.
o Gasoline vapors are dangerous. Before
refueling, always stop the engine and
never allow sparks or open flames near
the filler area. If you need to replace the
filler cap, use a genuine Hyundai re-
placement part.
o If you open the fuel filler cap during
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.

WARNING:
o Make sure the fuel filler cap is replaced
and securely seated after fueling. Fail-
ure to replace or fully seat the fuel filler
cap will result in fuel vapors escaping
into the atmosphere and the check
engine "MIL" indicator illuminating.
o Do not "TOP-OFF" after the first nozzle
shut off when refueling.
o Automotive fuels are flammable/explo-
sive materials. When refueling, please
note the following guidelines carefully.
o Before touching the fuel nozzle or fuel
filler cap, have one's hands in contact
with metal parts away from the filler
neck to discharge static electricity.
o Do not get back in the vehicle while
refueling. Do not operate anything that
can produce static electricity. Static
electricity discharge can ignite fuel va-
pors resulting in explosion.
o When using a portable fuel container
be sure to place the container on the
ground while refueling. Static electric-
ity discharge from the container can
ignite fuel vapors causing a fire. While
starting refueling contact should be
maintained until the filling is complete.
