manual transaxle vehicle, do not shift into
neutral without depressing the clutch
pedal, or the engine will be overrevved. If
this happens, depress the clutch pedal or
release the main switch.
o With the cruise control engaged, when
the brake pedal is applied, it is normal to
hear the cruise control system deacti-
vate. This is an indication of normal sys-
tem operation.

when the "SET(COAST)" is activated or
reactivated after applying the brakes, the
cruise control will energize after approx-
imately 3 seconds. This delay is normal.
B670B02A-AATFan Speed Control (Blower Control)

This is used to turn the blower fan on or off and
to select the fan speed.
This blower fan speed, and therefore the vol-
ume of air delivered from the system, may be
controlled manually by setting the blower con-
trol between the "1" and "4" positions.
NOTE:If the blower fan is off, it will set to the fresh
mode automatically and be able to select
"Fresh"mode or "Recirculation" mode.

WARNING:
o Keep the main switch off when not using
the cruise control.
o Do not use the cruise control when it may
not be safe to keep the car at a constant
speed, for instance, driving in heavy or
varying traffic, or on slippery (rainy, icy or
snow-covered) or winding roads or over
6% up-hill or down-hill roads.
o Pay particular attention to the driving
conditions whenever using the cruise
control system.

C070D03A-AATGood Driving Practices Good Driving PracticesGood Driving Practices Good Driving Practices
Good Driving Practiceso Never take the car out of gear and coast down
a hill. This is extremely hazardous. Always
leave the car in gear.
o Don't "ride" the brakes. This can cause them
to overheat and malfunction. Instead, when
you are driving down a long hill, slow down
and shift to a lower gear. When you do this,
engine braking will help slow the car.
o Slow down before shifting to a lower gear.
This will help avoid over-revving the engine,
which can cause damage.
o Slow down when you encounter cross winds.
This gives you much better control of your car.C070B01A-AAT
Using the Clutch Using the ClutchUsing the Clutch Using the Clutch
Using the ClutchThe clutch should be pressed all the way to the
floor before shifting, then released slowly. The
clutch pedal should always be used after fully
returning to the original position. Do not rest your
foot on the clutch pedal while driving. This can
cause unnecessary wear.
Do not partially engage the clutch to hold the car
on an incline. This causes unnecessary wear.
Use the parking brake to hold the car on an
incline. Do not operate the clutch pedal rapidly
and repeatedly.

can be damaged if you do not. To shift into
reverse, depress the clutch, move the shift

o Exercise extreme caution when driving on a
slippery surface. Be especially careful when
braking, accelerating or shifting gears. On a
slippery surface, an abrupt change in vehicle
speed can cause the drive wheels to lose
traction and the vehicle to go out of control.

Indicator and WarningThe indicator should illuminate when the ignition
key is turned to "ON" or "START", but should go
out after three seconds.
If the indicator does not illuminate, have it checked
by an authorized Hyundai dealer.
Should there be any unusual conditions in the
device, TCS illuminates as a warning.
If TCS illuminates, pull your car to a safe place
and stop the engine.
Then, start the engine again to check if the TCS
indicator goes out.

DRIVING FOR ECONOMY DRIVING FOR ECONOMYDRIVING FOR ECONOMY DRIVING FOR ECONOMY
DRIVING FOR ECONOMYYou 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 cruising
speed. Don't race between stoplights. Try to
adjust your speed to that of the other traffic so
you don't have to change speeds unneces-
sarily. Avoid heavy traffic whenever possible.
Always maintain a safe distance from other
vehicles 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 at
a moderate speed, especially on the high-
way, is one of the most effective ways to
reduce fuel consumption.
o Don't "ride" the brake or clutch pedal. This
can increase fuel consumption and also in-
crease wear on these components. In addi-
tion, driving with your foot resting on the brake
pedal may cause the brakes to overheat,
which reduces their effectiveness and may
lead to more serious consequences.
