For optimum fuel economy, accelerate gradual-ly. The transaxle will automatically shift to thesecond, third and overdrive gears. C090B01A-AAT
The function of each position is as follows:
o P (Park): Use to hold the vehicle in place when parking or
while starting the engine; shift the selector lever to the "P" (Park) position. Whenever parkingthe car, apply the parking brake and shift theselector lever to the "P" (Park) position.
CAUTION: Never place the selector lever in the "P"
(Park) position unless the vehicle is fully stopped. Failure to observe this caution willcause severe damage to the transaxle.

DRIVING YOUR HYUNDAI
2- 6 C090G01S-GAT o L (Low gear): Use for driving up a very steep grade or for engine braking when descending steep hills.When downshifting to "L", the transaxle willtemporarily remain in second gear until thevehicle has slowed enough for low gear toengage. Do not exceed 50 km/h (30 mph) in lowgear. "L" shifts to 1st gear only. However, shift up to 2nd is performed when the car exceeds acertain speed and, as speed increases, thetransaxle will shift up to 3rd gear to preventover-revving the engine. C090H01E-GAT
NOTE:
o For smooth and safe operation, depress the brake pedal when shifting from "Neu- tral" position or "Park" position to a for-ward or reverse gear.
o The brake pedal fully depressed in order to move the shift lever from the "P"(Park) position to any of the other posi-tions.
o It is always possible to shift from "R", "N", "D", "2", "L" position to "P" posi-tion. The vehicle must be fully stopped toavoid transaxle damage.

CAUTION:
o Shift into "R" and "P" position only when the vehicle has completely stopped. When the overdrive switch is turned on, the transaxle will automatically upshift to the sec-ond, third and overdrive gears. When the over-

o Do not accelerate the engine in reverse
or any of the forward positions with the brakes applied.
o Always apply the footbrake when shift- ing from "P" or "N", to "R", "D", "2" or"L" position.
o Do not use the "P" (Park) position in place of the parking brake. Always setthe parking brake, shift the transaxle into"P" (Park) position and turn off the igni-tion when you leave the vehicle, evenmomentarily. Never leave the vehicleunattended while the engine is running.
o Check the automatic transaxle fluid level regularly, and add fluid as necessary.
C090C01A-AAT
o R(Reverse):
Use for backing up the vehicle. Bring the car to
a complete stop before shifting the selectorlever to "R" position.
C090E01A-GAT
o D (Drive):
Use for normal driving. The transaxle will auto-
matically shift through a four-gear sequence,giving best economy and power. Never down-shift manually to "2" position or "L" positionwhen vehicle speed is more than 95 km/h (60mph). C090D02A-AAT
o N (Neutral): In the "N" position, the transaxle is in neutral
position, which means that no gears are en-gaged. The engine can be started with the shiftlever in "N" position, although this is not recom-mended except if the engine stalls while the caris moving.
C090F01A-AAT
o 2 (Second gear): Use for driving on a slippery road, hill climbing
or engine braking downhill. "2" automaticallyshifts between first and second gears.
This means that no shift-up to 3rd gear is
performed. However, the shift-up to third gear isdone when the car speed exceeds a certainvalue to prevent the engine from over-revving. Manually move the selector to "D" returning to normal driving condition.
