FEATURES OF YOUR HYUNDAI 1- 37
B240C02Y-GAT SRS Care The SRS is virtually maintenance-free and there are no parts you can safelyservice by yourself. The entire SRSsystem must be inspected by an au-thorized Hyundai dealer 10 years after the date that the vehicle was manufac- tured. Any work on the SRS system, such as removing, installing, repairing, or anywork on the steering wheel must be performed by a qualified Hyundai tech- nician. Improper handling of the SRSsystem may result in serious personalinjury.
o Do not place any objects (an
umbrella, bag, etc.) between thefront door and the front seat.Such objects may become dan-gerous projectiles and cause in-jury if the supplemental side im- pact air bag inflates.
o To prevent unexpected deploy- ment of the side impact air bag that may result in personal in-jury, avoid impact to the sideairbag sensor when the ignition key is on.
o For best protection from the side
airbag system and to avoid being injured by the deploying sideimpact airbag, both front seatoccupants should sit in an up- right position with the seat belt properly fastened. The driver'shands should be placed on thesteering wheel at the 9:00 and3:00 o'clock positions. Thepassenger's arms and hands should be placed in their laps.
o Do not use any accessory seat
covers.
o Use of seat covers could reduce
or prevent the effectiveness of the system.
o Do not install any accessories on
the side or near the side impactairbag.
o Do not use excessive force on
the side of the seat.
o Do not place any objects over the airbag or between the airbag andyourself.

NOTE:
1) When TCS illuminates, traction
control is automatically deacti- vated for safety.
2) This warning function is not pro- vided when in the TCS-OFF mode.
3) When the engine starts, a click is
heard from the engine compart-ment; however, this is only thesound of traction control beingchecked.
4) When moving out of the mud or
fresh snow, pressing the accel-erator pedal may not cause theengine speed to increase.
C300D02L-GAT Indicator and Warning The indicator should illuminate when
the ignition key is turned ON or START but should go out after three seconds. If the indicators do not illuminate or goout after three seconds, have themchecked by an authorized dealer. Should there be any unusual condi- tions in the device, TCS illuminates asa warning.If TCS illuminates, pull your car to asafe place and stop the engine.Then, start the engine again to check if the TCS indicator goes out.

WARNING:
Nothing should be carried on top of the cargo area cover behind therear seat. If there were an accidentor a sudden stop, such objectscould move forward and cause dam- age to the vehicle or injure the oc- cupants.
o After being parked, check to be sure the parking brake is not engaged and that the parking brake indicator light is out before driving away.
o Driving through water may get the brakes wet. They can also get wet when the car is washed. Wet brakescan be dangerous! Your car will notstop as quickly if the brakes are wet. Wet brakes cause the car to pull toone side. To dry the brakes, applythe brakes lightly until the braking
action returns to normal, taking careto keep the car under control at all times. If the braking action does not return to normal, stop as soon as it
is safe to do so and call your Hyundaidealer for assistance.
o Don't coast down hills with the car out of gear. This is extremely haz- ardous. Keep the car in gear at all times, use the brakes to slow down,then shift to a lower gear so thatengine braking will help you main-tain a safe speed.
o Don't "ride" the brake pedal. Rest- ing your foot on the brake pedalwhile driving can be dangerous be-cause it can result in the brakes
overheating and losing their effec-tiveness. It also increases the wearof the brake components.
o If a tire goes flat while you are
driving, apply the brakes gently and
keep the car pointed straight aheadwhile you slow down. When you are
moving slowly enough for it to besafe to do so, pull off the road and stop in a safe place.

o Drive at a moderate speed. The
faster you drive, the more fuel your car uses. Driving at a moderatespeed, especially on the highway, isone of the most effective ways to reduce fuel consumption.
o Don't "ride" the brake or clutch pedal. This can increase fuel consumption and also increase wear on thesecomponents. In addition, driving withyour foot resting on the brake pedal may cause the brakes to overheat, which reduces their effectivenessand may lead to more serious con-sequences.
o Take care of your tires. Keep them
inflated to the recommended pres- sure. Incorrect inflation, either too much or too little, results in unnec-essary tire wear. Check the tire pres-sures at least once a month.
o Be sure that the wheels are aligned correctly. Improper alignment can result from hitting curbs or driving too fast over irregular surfaces. Pooralignment causes faster tire wearand may also result in other prob-lems as well as greater fuel con-sumption.
transaxle) and block the rear wheelsso the car cannot roll. Then releasethe parking brake.
o Do not hold the vehicle on the up- grade with the accelerator pedal. This can cause the transaxle to overheat. Always use the brakepedal or parking brake.
C140A01A-AAT DRIVING FOR ECONOMY You can save fuel and get more miles from your car if you follow these sug-gestions:
o Drive smoothly. Accelerate at a moderate rate. Don't make "jack- rabbit" starts or full-throttle shiftsand maintain a steady cruisingspeed. Don't race between stop-lights. Try to adjust your speed tothat of the other traffic so you don't have to change speeds unneces- sarily. Avoid heavy traffic wheneverpossible. Always maintain a safedistance from other vehicles so youcan avoid unnecessary braking. Thisalso reduces brake wear.
o If your car is equipped with an auto-
matic transaxle, don't let your carcreep forward. To avoid creepingforward, keep your foot on the brake
pedal when the car is stopped.
o Use caution when parking on a hill.
Engage the parking brake and placethe gear selector lever in "P" (auto-matic transaxle) or in first or reversegear (manual transaxle). If your caris facing downhill, turn the front wheels into the curb to help keep the car from rolling. If your car is facinguphill, turn the front wheels awayfrom the curb to help keep the carfrom rolling.If there is no curb or if it is required by other conditions to keep the car from rolling, block the wheels.
o Under some conditions your park-
ing brake can freeze in the engagedposition. This is most likely to hap-pen when there is an accumulation of snow or ice around or near the rear brakes or if the brakes are wet.If there is a risk that the parkingbrake may freeze, apply it only tem-porarily while you put the gear se-lector lever in "P" (automatic) or in first or reverse gear (manual

C160I01A-AAT Don't Let Your Parking Brake Freeze Under some conditions your parking brake can freeze in the engaged posi-tion. This is most likely to happenwhen there is an accumulation of snow or ice around or near the rear brakes or if the brakes are wet. If there is a riskthe parking brake may freeze, apply itonly temporarily while you put the gearselector lever in "P" (automatic) or infirst or reverse gear (manual transaxle) and block the rear wheels so the car cannot roll. Then release the parkingbrake.
C160H01A-AAT Use Approved Anti-Freeze in Window Washer System To keep the water in the window washer system from freezing, add an approvedanti-freeze solution in accordance withinstructions on the container. Windowwasher anti-freeze is available fromHyundai dealers and most auto parts outlets. Do not use engine coolant or other types of anti-freeze as thesemay damage the finish.
C160K01A-AAT Carry Emergency Equipment Depending on the severity of the weather where you drive your car, youshould carry appropriate emergency equipment. Some of the items you may want to carry include tire chains,tow straps or chains, flashlight, emer-gency flares, sand, a shovel, jumpercables, a window scraper, gloves,ground cloth, coveralls, a blanket, etc.
C160J01A-AAT Don't Let Ice and Snow Accumu- late Underneath Under some conditions, snow and ice can build up under the fenders andinterfere with the steering. When driv-ing in severe winter conditions wherethis may happen, you should periodi- cally check underneath the car to be sure the movement of the front wheelsand the steering components is notobstructed.
C170A01A-AAT HIGH SPEED MOTORING Pre-Trip Inspections 1. Tires: Adjust the tire inflation pressures tospecification. Low tire inflation pres-sures will result in overheating andpossible failure of the tires. Avoid using worn or damaged tires which may result in reduced traction ortire failure. NOTE: Never exceed the maximum tire in- flation pressure shown on the tires. 2. Fuel, engine coolant and engine oil: High speed travel consumes 1.5 timesmore fuel than urban motoring. Do notforget to check both engine coolantand engine oil. 3. Drive belt: A loose or damaged drive belt mayresult in overheating of the engine.
