BEFORE STARTING THE ENGINE
Before you start the engine, you should always:
1. Look around the vehicle to be sure there are no flat tires, puddles of oil or water or other indications of possible trouble.
2. After entering the car, check to be sure the parking brake is engaged.
3. Check that all windows, and lights are clean.
4. Check that the interior and exterior mirrors are clean and in position.
5. Check your seat, seatback and head re- straint to be sure they are in their properpositions.
6. Close all the doors.
7. Fasten your seat belt and be sure that all other occupants have fastened theirs.
8. Turn off all lights and accessories that are not needed.
9. When you turn the ignition switch to "ON' check that all appropriate warning lights are operating and that you have sufficient fuel.
10.Check the operation of warning lights and all bulbs when key is in the "ON" position. o To start the engine, insert the ignition key
and turn it to the "START" position. Releaseit as soon as the engine starts. Do not holdthe key in the "START" position for more that15 seconds.
NOTE: For safety, the engine will not start if the shift lever is not in "P" or "N" Position (AutoT/A).

COMBINATION IGNITION SWITCH AND STEERING LOCK To Start the Engine
o If your Hyundai is equipped with a manual

o If your Hyundai has an automatic transaxle, place the shift lever in "P" (park). SC050A2-E
KEY POSITIONS WARNING:
The engine must never be turned off and the key removed from the ignition key cylinderwhilst the vehicle is in motion since thesteering lock will operate and control of thevehicle will be lost. "START"
The engine is started in this position. It willcrank until you release the key. NOTE: Do not hold the key in the "START" position for more than 15 seconds.
"ON" When the key is at the "ON" position, the ignition and all accessories are available for use. If theengine is not running, the key should not be leftat this position since the battery will becomedischarged and damage to the ignition systemmay also result. For information regarding en-gine starting, refer to "STARTING THE EN-GINE". "ACC" When the ignition key is at the "ACC" position, the radio and other accessories may be used. "LOCK" The ignition key may only be inserted or removed at this position.

DRIVING YOUR HYUNDAI
2- 8 when you are driving down a long hill, slow down 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.
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 vehi-cle speed can cause the drive wheels tolose traction and the vehicle to go out ofcontrol.
WARNING:
o Avoid high cornering speeds.
o Do not make quick steering wheel move- ments, such as sharp lane changes or fast, sharp turns.
o Always wear your seat belts. In a collision crash, un unbelted personis significantly more likely to die than aperson wearing a seatbelt.
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 Never exceed posted speed limits. SC140A1-E EFFECTIVE BRAKING Braking system performance and friction mate- rial life are greatly affected by the driving styleadopted. The following suggestions are made toassist in achieving the best results from thebraking system.
o Anticipate the road and conditions ahead in order that heavy braking may be avoided.
o When descending long gradients, use the engine to assist in retarding the vehicle to minimize the possibility of brake fade occur-ring.
o When trailer towing, ensure that the trailer brakes function correctly and use enginebraking to assist the vehicle braking system.
o Use only genuine Hyundai replacement brake pads and shoes to ensure consistentfriction characteristics and wear rates.
o After driving through deep water (e.g. fording), the brakes may become wet andperformance reduced. Always check brakeefficiency after emerging from the water anddry the brakes by lightly depressing thebrake pedal several times whilst driving slow-ly.
C090I01L-GAT
CAUTION:
o Shift into "R" and "P" position only when the vehicle has completely stopped.
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"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.
C090N02O-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,
DRIVING YOUR HYUNDAI 2- 9
o Apply the parking brake only when the vehi-
cle is at rest.
o Since the power assistance provided by the brake servo is derived from the engine, coasting with the engine turned off or towingof the vehicle with the engine turned off willresult in greatly increased pedal pressuresbeing required to stop the vehicle.
o Do not hold the vehicle on the upgrade with the accelerator pedal. This can cause thetransaxle to overheat. Always use the brakepedal or parking brake.
SC140B1-E
ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM (Not all models)
The Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) is designed
to prevent wheel lock-up during sudden braking or on hazardous road surfaces. The ABS con-trol module monitors the wheel speed and con-trols the pressure applied to each brake. Thus,in emergency situations or on slick roads, ABSwill increase vehicle control during braking.
NOTE: During ABS operation, a slight pulsation
may be felt in the brake pedal when the brakes are applied. Also, a noise may beheard in the engine compartment while brak-ing. These conditions are normal and indi-cate that the anti-lock brake system is func-tioning properly. WARNING: ABS will not prevent accidents due to im-
proper or dangerous driving manoeuvres. Even though vehicle control is improvedduring emergency braking, always maintaina safe distance between you and objectsahead. Vehicle speeds should always bereduced during extreme road conditions.
The braking distance for cars equipped with
an anti-lock braking system may be longerthan for those without it in the followingroad conditions.
o Rough, gravel or snow-covered roads.
o With tire chains installed.
o On roads where the road surface is pit- ted or has different surface height.
These roads should be driven at reduced
speeds. The safety features of an ABS equipped vehicle should not be tested byhigh speed driving or cornering. This couldendanger the safety of yourself or others. C300A03Y-EAT
TRACTION CONTROL SYSTEM (TCS) (Not all models)
HGK156A-D
On slippery road surfaces, the traction control system (TCS) limits the drive wheels from spin-ning excessively, thus helping the car to accel-erate. It also provides sufficient driving forceand steering performance as the car turns ataccelerated speeds.
SLIP Control Limits the drive wheels from spinning exces-sively during starting or while making accelerat-ed turns on slippery roads to avoid losing thedriving force of the front wheels.
Driving hints TCS does not actively apply brakes. Be sure todecelerate the car sufficiently before enteringcurves.
