resulting in the engine bucking. If this hap- pens, shift to a lower gear. Over-revving isracing the engine beyond its safe limit. Thiscan be avoided by shifting at the recom-mended speeds.
o Use your air conditioning sparingly. The air conditioning system is operated by enginepower so your fuel economy is reducedwhen you use it.

SMOOTH CORNERING Avoid braking or gear changing in corners,
especially when roads are wet. Ideally, cornersshould always be taken under gentle accelera-tion. If you follow these suggestions, tire wearwill be held to a minimum.

WINTER DRIVING The more severe weather conditions of winter
result in greater wear and other problems. Tominimize the problems of winter driving, youshould follow these suggestions:

Snowy or Icy Conditions To drive your vehicle in deep snow, it may be
necessary to use snow tires or to install tirechains on your tires. If snow tires are needed,
it is necessary to select tires equivalent in size
and type to the original equipment tires.
o Be sure that the wheels are aligned correct-
ly. Improper alignment can result from hittingcurbs or driving too fast over irregular sur-faces. Poor alignment causes faster tirewear and may also result in other problemsas well as greater fuel consumption.
o Keep your car in good condition. For better fuel economy and reduced maintenancecosts, maintain your car in accordance withthe maintenance schedule in Section 5. Ifyou drive your car in severe conditions,more frequent maintenance is required (seeSection 5 for details).
o Keep your car clean. For maximum service, your Hyundai should be kept clean and freeof corrosive materials. It is especially impor-tant that mud, dirt, ice, etc. not be allowed toaccumulate on the underside of the car. Thisextra weight can result in increased fuelconsumption and also contribute to corro-sion.
o Travel lightly. Don't carry unnecessary weight in your car. Weight reduces fuel economy.
o Don't let the engine idle longer than neces- sary. If you are waiting (and not in traffic),turn off your engine and restart only whenyou're ready to go.
o Remember, your Hyundai does not require extended warm-up. As soon as the engine isrunning smoothly, you can drive away. Invery cold weather, however, give your en-gine a slightly longer warm-up period.
o Don't "lug" or "over-rev" the engine. Lugging is driving too slowly in too high a gear

DRIVING FOR ECONOMY
You can save fuel and get more kilometers from
your car if you follow these suggestions:
o Drive smoothly. Accelerate at a moderate rate. Don't make "jack-rabbit" starts or full- throttle shifts and maintain a steady cruisingspeed. Don't race between stoplights. Try toadjust your speed to that of the other trafficso you don't have to change speeds unnec-essarily. Avoid heavy traffic whenever pos-sible. Always maintain a safe distance fromother vehicles so you can avoid unneces-sary braking. This also reduces brake wear.
o Drive at a moderate speed. The faster you drive, the more fuel your car uses. Driving ata moderate speed, especially on the high-way, is one of the most effective ways toreduce fuel consumption.
o Don't "ride" the brake or clutch pedal. This can increase fuel consumption and alsoincrease wear on these components. In ad-dition, driving with your foot resting on thebrake pedal may cause the brakes to over-heat, which reduces their effectiveness andmay lead to more serious consequences.
o Take care of your tires. Keep them inflated to the recommended pressure. Incorrect in-flation, either too much or too little, results inunnecessary tire wear. Check the tire pres-sures at least once a month.

o Lower-than-recommended tire pressures
cause uneven tread wear and poor han- dling.
o Higher-than-recommended tire pressures increase the chance of damage from im-pacts and cause uneven tread wear.
CAUTION: Always observe the following:
o Check pressures when the tires are cold. That is, after the car has been parked for at least three hours and hasn't been driv-en more than 1.6 km or one mile sincestarting up.
o Check the pressure of your spare tire each time you check the pressure ofother tires.
o Never overload your car. Be especially careful about overloading if you equipyour car with a luggage rack or car topcarrier. I040A01A-GAT
SNOW TIRES
If you equip your car with snow tires, they
should be the same size and have the sameload capacity as the original tires. Snow tiresshould be installed on all four wheels; other-wise, poor handling may result.
Snow tires should carry 28 kPa (4 psi) more air
pressure than the pressure recommended forthe standard tires on the tire label on the driverside center pillar outer panel, or up to themaximum pressure shown on the tire sidewallwhichever is less.
Do not drive faster than the speed limit when
your car is equipped with snow tires. I050A01X-GAT TIRE CHAINSTire chains, if necessary, should be installed on the front wheels. Be sure that the chains are theproper size and that they are installed in accor-dance with the manufacturer's instructions. To minimize tire and chain wear, do not con- tinue to use tire chains when they are no longerneeded. WARNING: When driving on roads covered with snow or ice, drive at less than 30 km/h (20 mph). I060A01A-GAT
TIRE ROTATION
SSA8050A
Tires should be rotated every 10,000 km (6,000
miles). If you notice that tires are wearing un- evenly between rotations, have the car checkedby a Hyundai dealer so the cause may becorrected.
After rotating, adjust the tire pressures and be
sure to check wheel nut tightness.
WARNING: Do not mix bias-ply and radial-ply tires un-
der any circumstances.
This may cause dangerous handling char-
acteristics.

tread. Always replace your tires with those of the recommended size. If you change wheels,the new wheel's rim width and offset must meetHyundai specification.
I070A01A-AAT TIRE BALANCING A tire that is out of balance may affect handling and tire wear. The tires on your Hyundai werebalanced before the car was delivered but mayneed balancing again during the years you ownthe car. Whenever a tire is dismounted for repair, it should be rebalanced before being reinstalledon the car. I080A01A-AAT TIRE TRACTION Tire traction can be reduced if you drive on worn tires, tires that are improperly inflated oron slippery road surfaces. Tires should be re-placed when tread wear indicators appear. Toreduce the possibility of losing control, slowdown whenever there is rain, snow or ice on theroad. Wear indicator

SPARE TIRE AND TOOLS
Your Hyundai is delivered with the following: Spare tire and wheel Wheel nut wrench, Wrench bar, Spanner,
Screwdriver
Jack
WARNING:
o Driving on worn-out tires is dangerous!
Worn-out tires can cause loss of braking effectiveness, steering control and trac-tion. When replacing tires, never mix ra-dial and bias-ply tires on the same car. Ifyou replace radial tires with bias-ply tires,they must be installed in sets of four.
o Using tires and wheels of other than the recommended sizes may cause unusualhandling characteristics that may cause
death, serious injury or property dam-age.
The original tires on your car have tread wearindicators. The tread wear indicators appearwhen the tread depth is 1.6 mm (0.06 in.). Thetire should be replaced when these appear as asolid bar across two or more grooves of the
