STEERING WHEEL LOCK
When the key is removed, the steering column
lock will be activated and will engage when the steering wheel is turned to the appropriate po-sition. It is not necessary to turn the wheel untillocked each time the key is removed since inthe event of any unauthorized attempt at re-moval, the lock will become effective as soonas the steering wheel is turned. To unlock thesteering, insert the key and turn to the "ACC"position. If the steering is locked, it may benecessary to rock the steering wheel slightly tofacilitate turning the key. Under no circum-stances should the key be forced since break-age of the key will occur. SC060A1-E

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.

heat, which reduces their effectiveness and may lead to more serious consequences.
o Take care of your tires. Keep them inflated to the recommended pressure. Incorrect infla-tion, either too much or too little, results inunnecessary tire wear. Check the tire pres-sures at least once a month.
o Be sure that the wheels are aligned cor- rectly. Improper alignment can result fromhitting curbs or driving too fast over irregularsurfaces. 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 car should be kept clean and free ofcorrosive 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 is an enemy of good fueleconomy.
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 car does not require ex-
tended 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 gearresulting in the engine bucking. If this hap-pens to you, shift to a lower gear. Over-revving is racing the engine beyond its safe limit. This can be avoided by shifting atthe recommended speeds.
o Use your air conditioning sparingly. The air conditioning system is operated by the en-gine power so your fuel economy is reducedwhen you use it.
SC160A1-F
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.
SC170A1-E
WINTER MOTORING The onset of winter conditions subject motor
vehicles to greater operating demands. There-fore, the following suggestions will assist inmaintaining peak performance and reliabilityduring these periods: ZC170B1-E
Electrical System
Winter conditions impose severe demands uponvehicle electrical systems, particularly the charg-ing circuit. The battery condition and perfor-mance along with the alternator performanceand drive belt condition should be checked priorto the onset of winter. ZC170C1-E
Anti-freeze/Corrosion inhibitor The cooling system must always contain an Ethylene-Glycol based anti-freeze solution. Thesystem is filled during manufacture with solu-tion of the correct strength which should bechecked before the onset of winter and adjust- ed or changed as required. NOTE: The anti-freeze solution contains a corro- sion inhibitor to prevent degradation of thealuminum castings contained within theengine. Therefore, never, drain the systemand refill with water only. In addition, anti-freeze solution must ALWAYS be used in vehicles fitted with air conditioning,to prevent the heater matrix from freezing andsubsequently bursting with the refrigeration sys-tem in use.

DRIVING YOUR HYUNDAI
2- 12 WARNING:
It is not recommended that the vehicle be used for towing until the first 1000 miles ofRunning In has been completed. All Hyundaicoupe models are suited to towing trailersand caravans up to the limits indicated onpage 2-14. Coupe models fitted with auto-matic transaxle have a transaxle oil coolerand further transaxle cooling should not berequired.

o When driving in extreme conditions, the
windscreen wiper blades may fail to clear the screen properly due to the formation ofice upon the blade edge. It will therefore benecessary to periodically remove such iceto restore their efficiency.
o If the power operated door mirrors become frozen, attempts to adjust these may dam-age the mechanism.
o The formation of snow or ice built up inside the wheel arches may interfere with the roadwheels or steering mechanism. In such in-stances, unusual noises or an increase insteering effort may result. Therefore, ensurethat the wheel arches are checked periodi-cally and any accumulated snow or iceremoved.
o It is advisable to carry emergency equip- ment including, torch, shovel, tow rope, blan-kets etc., if a journey is to be undertaken intoareas of severe road conditions.
ZC170D1-E
Door Locks
Should the door lock mechanism become fro-
zen, a proprietary lock de-icer should be used.Alternatively, warming the door key may thawthe door lock. However, the key should behandled carefully to avoid burning the fingers.
Never attempt to thaw a frozen door lock using
hot water, since the water will eventually freezeand compound the problem.
NOTE:The proper temperature for using the immo-
bilizer key is from -40°F (-40°C) to 176°F(80°C). If you heat the immobilizer key over176°F (80°C) to open the frozen lock, it maycause damage to the transponder in its head. SC170E1-E Windscreen Washers and Wipers
The windscreen washer bottle should be filled
with a solution of water and a proprietary winter screen wash additive. The windscreen wipersshould not be used if the blades are frozen tothe windscreen or if they are covered withsnow, before this is removed.
NOTE: Never allow undiluted screen washer fluid
additive to spill upon the paintwork or use engine coolant anti-freeze since damage tothe paintwork may result.

TOWING ATTACHMENTS
It is strongly recommended that only an Hyundai
Approved towing attachment is used to ensure that the loads placed upon the body structureare correctly distributed. The use of a nonapproved attachment will result in the invalida-tion of the vehicle warranty. Hyundai towingattachments are designed and constructed toensure maximum towing performance and easeof fitment. A range of accessories includingelectrical kits and mirrors are available throughthe Hyundai dealer network.
It is of the utmost importance that those areas
of the vehicle which are subjected to greaterstress during towing are maintained in accor-dance with the recommendations given at theend of this book. In addition, the daily operatingchecks relating to engine oil, transaxle oil andtyres must be performed at each refuelling toensure maximum reliability and safety.
The use of a proprietary stabiliser will assist in
achieving an inherently stable outfit but whilstthe use of such equipment will improve thecharacteristics of a balanced outfit, it will notcompensate for a badly loaded and thereforeunstable outfit.
The tyres and braking equipment fitted to the
trailer or caravan must be maintained in accor-dance with the recommendations of the manu-facturer. Special attention should be paid totyres which deteriorate through time and expo- sure rather than as a result of the distancestowed. The inside walls of the tyres should beinspected along with the outside walls for crack-ing and damage. The trailer wheel nut torquemust be checked on a regular basis, preferablybefore each towing session.
The trailer towbar hitch and the safety catch
mechanism must be maintained in good work-ing order. The trailer break away cable or cableshould be inspected for damage and should beattached to the vehicle towing attachment eachand every time the trailer is hitched to thevehicle.
Whilst towing, the performance of the vehicle
will be reduced in terms of acceleration, brakingand handling due to the increased loads placedupon the vehicle. The driver should anticipatethe change in characteristics and adjust thedriving style in keeping with these changes.Care should be exercised when cornering andbraking to prevent the outfit becoming uncon-trollable by reducing cornering speeds and al-lowing increased braking distances.
The driver should exercise care to ensure that
when pulling away from rest particularly onuphill gradients the clutch unit is not subjectedto excessive slippage which will reduce theuseful life of this component. Use of the "Over-drive Off" "2" and "L" positions when drivingvehicles with automatic transaxle will assistwith braking performance when long down hill gradients are encountered. Improved accelera-tion performance will be available by selecting"Overdrive Off","2", or "1" depending upon roadspeed if it is found that the transaxle unit makesan undesirable upshift whilst hill climbing orovertaking. The transaxle unit should be oper-ated in "D" with the Overdrive "On" undernormal circumstances to enhance fuel economyand reduce noise and engine wear.
