Indicators and Warning The indicators should illuminate when the igni-
tion key is turned to ON or START but should go out after three seconds.
If the indicators do not illuminate, or the TCS or
TCS-OFF indicator does not go out after 3seconds, have it checked by an authorizeddealer.
Should there be any unusual conditions in the
device while driving, TCS-OFF indicator illumi-nates as a warning.
If TCS-OFF indicator illuminates, pull your car
to a safe place and stop the engine. Then, start the engine again to check if the
TCS-OFF indicator goes out.
If the indicator remains lit even after the engine
has been started, have your car checked by anauthorized Hyundai dealer. effect of brake control and indicates noth-ing unusual.
3) When the engine starts, a click is heard from the engine compartment; however,this is only the sound of traction controlbeing checked.
4) When moving out of the mud or fresh snow, pressing the accelerator pedal maynot cause the engine speed to increasedue to TCS operation. NOTE:
1) When the TCS-OFF indicator illuminates,
traction control is automatically deacti- vated for safety.
2) This warning function is not provided when the driver selects the TCS-OFFmode.
SC150A1-F DRIVING FOR ECONOMY You can save fuel and get more miles 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 possible. Al- ways maintain a safe distance from othervehicles so you can avoid unnecessary brak-ing. 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-

TCS ON/OFF Mode When the TCS is running, the TCS indicator
light in the instrument cluster will blink. If you turn the system off by pressing the TCS
switch, the TCS-OFF indicator light will comeon and stay on. In the TCS-OFF mode, theSLIP control will be deactivated. Adjust youdriving accordingly. To turn the system backon, press the switch again. The TCS-OFF indi-cator light should go off.
NOTE:
1) The TCS mode will automatically be turned ON after the engine is turned offand restarted.
2) When the traction control system is op- erating properly, you can feel a slightpulsation in the vehicle. This is only the
CAUTION: When the TCS indicator blinks, SLIP control
has been activated. It also means that the road is slippery or your car is acceleratingexcessively. In this situation, gently releasefoot pressure from the accelerator pedaland maintain moderate speed.
WARNING: Traction control is only a driving aid; all
normal precautions for driving in inclement weather and on slippery road surfacesshould be observed.

IN CASE OF EMERGENCY
3-2 4. Check to see if the water pump drive belt is
missing. If it is not missing, check to see that it is tight. If the drive belt seems to be satisfac-tory, check for coolant leaking from the radia-tor, hoses or under the car. (If the air condi-tioning had been in use, it is normal for coldwater to be draining from it).
WARNING:Whilst the engine is running, keep hands andclothing away from moving parts such as thefan and drive belts to prevent injury.
5. If the water pump drive belt is broken or coolant is leaking out, stop the engine imme- diately and call the nearest Hyundai dealerfor assistance.
WARNING:Do not remove the radiator cap when theengine is hot since steam and boiling watermay be ejected from the radiator resulting inburns or scalding.
6. If the cause of the overheating cannot be found, wait until the engine temperature has returned to normal. Then, if coolant has beenlost, carefully remove the radiator cap andadd water to bring the fluid level in the reser-voir up to the base of the radiator fill opening.Fill the coolant expansion tank to the halfwaymark.
WARNING:Motor vehicle batteries contain sulphuric acidand emit hydrogen gas. Protective clothingshould be worn and care exercised to preventthe acid from coming into contact with skin orclothing and the vehicle. Naked lights shouldnot be permitted in the vicinity of the battery.Care should be exercised to prevent sparksoccurring during connection. If acid acciden-tally comes into contact with skin or eyes, theaffected area should immediately be flushedwith copious amounts of water and medicalassistance sought.
1. Ensure that the booster battery is 12 volt type.
If the booster battery is installed in another vehicle, ensure that the two vehicles are nottouching.
2. Turn off all unnecessary electrical equipment in both vehicles.
3. Ensure that the engine of the vehicle provid- ing the jump start is running prior to connec-tion of the jump cables.
4. Connect the red jump cable to the positive (+) terminal of the booster battery and the otherend to the positive (+) terminal of the dis-charged battery.
5. Attach the black jump cable to the negative (-) terminal of the booster battery, and theother end to a ground point within the enginecompartment of the vehicle with the flat bat-tery. Do not connect to the negative batteryterminal of the flat battery since sparks maybe generated with the subsequent risk ofexplosion. 6. Raise the booster vehicle engine speed to
2,000 r.p.m. and start the engine of the vehi-cle with the flat battery.
7. Remove jump cables in the reverse order of installation (black cable first).
CAUTION:If the jump cable is incorrectly installed, dam-age to the vehicle electrical system may oc-cur, in particular the electronic componentssuch as the Fuel Injection system computerand the Automatic Transaxle computer. Thebattery must never be disconnected whilstthe engine is running. SD040A1-E IF THE ENGINE OVERHEATSIf the temperature gauge indicates overheating:
1. Pull off the road and stop as soon as it is safe to do so.
2. Place the gear selector lever in "P" (auto- matic), or neutral (manual transaxle) and set the parking brake. If the air conditioning is on,turn it off.
3. If coolant is running out under the car or steam is coming out from under the bonnetstop the engine. Do not open the bonnet untilthe coolant has stopped running or the steam-ing has stopped. If there is no visible loss ofcoolant and no steam, leave the engine run-ning and check to be sure the engine coolingfan is operating.If the fan is not running, turn the engine off.

D060F02E-EAT 5. Raising the Car After inserting a bar into the wheel nut wrench, install the bar into the jack as shown in the draw-ing. To raise the vehicle, turn the wheel nut wrenchclockwise. As the jack begins to raise the vehicle,double check that it is properly positioned and will
not slip. If the jack is on soft ground or sand, placea board, brick, flat stone or other object under thebase of the jack to keep it from sinking.Raise the car high enough so that the fully inflatedspare tire can be installed. To do this, you will needmore ground clearance than is required to removethe flat
tyre.
WARNING:Do not get under the car when it is supportedby the jack! This is very dangerous as the jackcould fall and cause serious injury or death.No one should stay in the car while the jack isbeing used.

D060H02Y-EAT 7. Reinstall Wheel Nuts To reinstall the wheel hold it on the studs put the wheel nuts on the studs and tighten them fingertight. The nuts should be installed with their smalldiameter ends directed inward. Jiggle the tyre tobe sure it is completely seated, then tighten thenuts as much as possible with your fingers again.
WARNING:Wheels and wheel cover may have sharpedges. Handle them carefully to avoid pos-sible severe injury. Before putting the wheel into place, be sure that there is nothing on the hub or wheel(such as mud, tar, gravel, etc.) that interfereswith the wheel from fitting solidly against thehub. If there is, remove it. If there is not goodcontact on the mounting surface between thewheel and hub, the wheel nuts could comeloose and cause the loss of a wheel. Loss ofa wheel may result in loss of control of thevehicle. This may cause serious injury ordeath.

SG120C2-E Brake Fluid Recommendations Only brake fluid conforming to DOT 3 or DOT 4 specifications or higher may be used in thebraking system. Care should be taken to ob-serve the instructions and precautions printedupon the container. SG120D1-E Brake Fluid LevelThe fluid level in the brake fluid reservoir should be checked periodically. The level should bebetween the "MIN" and "MAX" marks on the sideof the reservoir. If the level is at or below the"MIN" mark, fluid should be added having care-fully cleaned the area surrounding the reservoircap to ensure that dirt is not allowed to enter thesystem. It should be borne in mind that the brakefluid level will decrease slightly as the frictionlinings of the pads and shoes become worn andthat this is a normal condition.
higher mark. If additional fluid is required, thisshould be poured into the transaxle through thedipstick tube with the aid of a suitable funnel. WARNING: The cooling fan is controlled by engine cool-ant temperature and may sometimes operateeven when the engine is not running. Useextreme caution when working near the bladesof the cooling fan so that you are not injuredby a rotating fan blade. As the engine coolanttemperature decreases, the fan will automati-cally shut off. This is a normal condition.
CAUTION:The automatic transaxle unit is a precisionengineered assembly and correct operationis dependant upon the exclusion of dirt andlint from the unit. Therefore, it is imperativethat only lint free cloth (eg nylon) is used forwiping the dipstick and that the area aroundthe dipstick is thoroughly clean prior to levelchecking or adding fluid. Fluid Capacity The total fluid capacity of the transaxle unit is 7.8 litres.
