C120A02A-AAT ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM (If installed) The Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) is designed to prevent wheel lock-upduring sudden braking or on hazard-ous road surfaces. The ABS controlmodule monitors the wheel speed and controls the pressure applied to each brake. Thus, in emergency situationsor on slick roads, ABS will increasevehicle control during braking. NOTE: During ABS operation, a slight pul- sation may be felt in the brake pedal when the brakes are applied. Also, a noise may be heard in the enginecompartment while driving. Theseconditions are normal and indicatethat the anti-lock brake system isfunctioning properly. WARNING:
ABS will not prevent accidents due to improper or dangerous driving maneuvers. Even though vehiclecontrol is improved during emer-gency braking, always maintain asafe distance between you and ob-jects ahead. Vehicle speeds should always be reduced during extreme road conditions.The braking distance for carsequipped with an anti-lock brakingsystem may be longer than for thosewithout it in the following road con- ditions.
o Driving on rough, gravel or snow- covered roads.
o Driving with tire chains installed.
o Driving on roads where the road surface is pitted or has different surface height.
During these conditions the vehicle should be driven at reduced speeds.The safety features of an ABSequipped vehicle should not be tested by high speed driving or cornering. This could endanger thesafety of yourself or others.
o Exercise extreme caution when driv-
ing on a slippery surface. Be espe-cially careful when braking, acceler-ating or shifting gears. On a slipperysurface, an abrupt change in vehi- cle speed can cause the drive wheels to lose traction and the vehicle to goout of control.
CAUTION:
o The risk of rollover is greatly in- creased if you lose control of your vehicle at highway speeds.
o Loss of control often occurs if two or more wheels drop off the roadway and the driver oversteersto reenter the roadway.
o In the event your vehicle leaves the roadway, do not steer sharply.Instead, slow down before pull-ing back into the travel lanes.
o In a collision crash, an unbelted person is significantly more likelyto die than a person wearing a seatbelt.

4- 4 CORROSION PREVENTION AND APPEARANCE CARE
trol chemicals are used, you should pay particular attention to the under-side of the car. Start by rinsing the carto remove dust and loose dirt. In win-ter, or if you have driven through mud or muddy water, be sure to thoroughly clean the underside as well. Use ahard direct stream of water to removeaccumulations of mud or corrosivematerials. High pressure car washesmay cause water to enter your vehicle. Use a good quality car-washing solu- tion and follow the manufacturer's di-rections on the package. These areavailable at your Hyundai dealer orauto parts outlet. Don't use stronghousehold detergents, gasoline, strong solvents or abrasive cleaning powders as these may damage the finish.Use a clean sponge or cloth, rinse itfrequently and don't damage the finishby rubbing too hard. For stubborn spots,dampen them frequently and remove them a little at a time. To clean whitewall tires, use a stiff brush or soapy steel-wool scouringpad.To clean plastic wheel covers, use aclean sponge or soft cloth and water. To clean cast aluminum alloy wheels, use a mild soap or neutral detergent.Do not use abrasive cleaners. Protectthe bare-metal surfaces by cleaning,polishing and waxing. Because alumi- num is subject to corrosion, be sure to give aluminum alloy wheels specialattention in winter. If you drive onsalted roads, clean the wheels thor-oughly afterwards. After washing, be sure to rinse thor- oughly. If soapy water dries on thefinish, streaking will result. When the weather is warm and the humidity low, you may find it neces- sary to rinse each section immediately after washing to avoid streaking. After rinsing, dry the car using a dampchamois or soft, absorbent cloth. Thereason for drying the car is to removewater from the car so it will dry withoutwater spots. Don't rub, this can dam- age the finish. If you find any nicks or scratches in the paint, use touch-up paint to coverthem to prevent corrosion. To protectthe paintwork of the car against corro- sion, you must clean your Hyundai (at least once a month). Give special at-tention to the removal of salt, mud andother substances on the underside ofthe splashboards of the car. Makesure that the outlets and the underside of the doors are open. Paint damage can be caused by small accumulationof tar, industrial precipitation, tree resin,insects and bird droppings, when notremoved immediately. If water alone isnot strong enough to remove the accu- mulated dirt, use a mild car washing solution. Be sure to rinse the surfaceafter washing to remove the solution.Never allow the solution to dry on thepainted surfaces.
