STARTING
Normal starting with either a cold or warm
engine is obtained without pumping or depress-
ing the accelerator pedal. Simply turn the key tothe "START" position and release when theengine starts. After the engine has started,allow the engine to run for 10 to 20 secondsprior to placing the vehicle in gear. The starter should not be operated for more
than 15 seconds at a time. Wait 15-30 secondsbetween starting attempts to protect the starterfrom overheating.
WARNING: Never run the engine in a closed or poorly
ventilated area any longer than is needed to move your car in or out of the area. The
carbon monoxide gas emitted is odorlessand can cause serious injury or death. C050B02X-GAT
Normal Conditions:
The Starting Procedure:
1. Insert key, and fasten the seat belt.
2. Depress the clutch pedal fully (manual transaxle) and place the gearshift lever in neutral (manual transaxle) or the selectorlever (automatic transaxle) in "P" (park)position.
3. After turning the ignition key to the "ON" position, make certain all warning lights andgauges are functioning properly before start-
ing the engine.
WARNING: Be sure that the clutch is fully depressed
when starting a manual transaxle vehicle. Otherwise, there is the potential to cause
damage to the vehicle or injury to someone
inside or outside the vehicle as a result ofthe forward or backward movement of the
vehicle that will occur if the clutch is notdepressed when the vehicle is started.
4. Turn the ignition key to the "Start" position and release it when the engine starts. C070A04X-GAT
OPERATING THE MANUAL TRANSAXLE
C070A01X
Your Hyundai's manual transaxle has a con-
ventional shift pattern. This shift pattern is also imprinted on the shift knob. The transaxle isfully synchronized in all forward gears so shift-
ing to either a higher or a lower gear is easilyaccomplished.
CAUTION:
o Do not attempt to engage reverse gear when the car is moving.
o To avoid damaging the selector mecha- nism, do not use the gear shift lever as ahand rest. Release the lever immediatelythe shift is completed.
o To avoid premature clutch wear, do not use the clutch pedal as a foot rest, anddo not hold the vehicle on a gradientusing the clutch.

GOOD BRAKING PRACTICES
WARNING: Do not allow passengers to sit on the cargo area while the car is moving as this is not aproper seating position and no seat belts
are available for use when the seat back isfolded down. This could result in seriousinjury or death in case of an accident or a
sudden stop. Objects should not extendhigher than the top of the front seats. This
could allow cargo to slide forward and causeinjury or damage during sudden stops.
o After being parked, check to be sure the parking brake is not engaged and that theparking brake indicator light is out beforedriving away.
o Driving through water may get the brakes wet. They can also get wet when the car iswashed. Wet brakes can be dangerous!
Your car will not stop as quickly if the brakesare wet and it may also pull to one side. Todry the brakes, apply the brakes lightly untilthe braking action returns to normal, takingcare to keep the car under control at alltimes. If the braking action does not return to
normal, stop as soon as it is safe to do soand call your Hyundai dealer for assistance.
o Don't coast down hills with the car out of gear. This is extremely hazardous. Keep thecar in gear at all times, use the brakes toslow down, then shift to a lower gear so thatengine braking will help you maintain a safespeed.
o Exercise extreme caution when driving on a
slippery surface. Be especially careful whenbraking, accelerating or shifting gears. On aslippery surface, an abrupt change in ve-hicle speed can cause the drive wheels tolose traction and the vehicle to go out ofcontrol.
o Turn the overdrive switch on for good fuel economy and smooth driving. If engine brak-ing is needed in the "D" range or if repeatedupshifting and downshifting between 3rd and4th gear is needed when climbing a gentleslope, it is recommended that the overdriveswitch be turned off. Turn the overdriveswitch back on immediately afterward.
CAUTION:
o The risk of rollover is greatly increased if you lose control of your vehicle at high-way speeds.
o Loss of control often occurs if two or more wheels drop off the roadway andthe driver oversteers to reenter the road-way.
o In the event your vehicle leaves the road- way, do not steer sharply. Instead, slowdown before pulling back into the travellanes.
o In a collision crash, on unbelted person is significantly more likely to die than aperson wearing a seatbelt.
C090N02A-AAT
Good Driving Practices
o Never move the gear selector lever from "P" or "N" to any other position with the acceler- ator pedal depressed.
o Never move the gear selector lever into "P" when the vehicle is in motion.
o Be sure the car is completely stopped be- fore you attempt to shift into "R".
o Never take the car out of gear and coast down a hill. This may be extremely hazard-ous. Always leave the car in gear whenmoving.
o Do not "ride" the brakes. This can cause them to overheat and malfunction. Instead,when you are driving down a long hill, slowdown and shift to a lower gear. When you dothis, engine braking will help slow the car.
o Slow down before shifting to a lower gear. Otherwise, the lower gear may not be en-gaged.
o Always use the parking brake. Do not de- pend on placing the transaxle in "P" to keepthe car from moving.
drive switch is turned off, the transaxle will notupshift to the overdrive gear. For normal driv-ing, the selector lever should be left in the "D"position and the overdrive switch turned on.
If you need to accelerate rapidly, press the
accelerator pedal all the way to the floor. Thetransaxle will automatically shift to a lower gear,depending on the vehicle speed and load.
