o Never take the vehicle out of gear and coast
down a hill. This is extremely hazardous. Always leave the vehicle 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, slowdown 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. This will help avoid over-running the engine,which can cause damage.
o Slow down when you encounter cross winds. This gives you much better control of yourcar.
o Be sure the vehicle is completely stopped before you attempt to shift into reverse. Thetransmission can be damaged if you do not.To shift into reverse, depress the clutch,move the shift lever to neutral, wait threeseconds, then shift to the reverse position.
o Exercise extreme caution when driving on a slippery surface. Be especially careful whenbraking, accelerating or shifting gears. On a slippery surface, an abrupt change in engine speed can cause the drive wheels tolose traction and the vehicle to go out ofcontrol.

o Never move the gear selector lever from "P"
or "N" to any other position with the accel- erator pedal depressed.
o Never move the gear selector lever into "P" when the vehicle is in motion.
o Be sure the vehicle is completely stopped before you attempt to shift into "R".
o Never take the vehicle out of gear and coast down a hill. This may be extremely hazard-ous. Always leave the vehicle in gear whenmoving.
o Do not "ride" the brakes. This can cause them to overheat and malfunction. Instead,when you are driving down a long hill, slowdown 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 transmission in "P" tokeep the vehicle from moving.
o Exercise extreme caution when driving on a slippery surface. Be especially careful whenbraking, accelerating or shifting gears. On a slippery surface, an abrupt change in engine speed can cause the drive wheels tolose traction and the vehicle to go out ofcontrol.
o Do not hold the vehicle on the upgrade with the accelerator pedal. This can cause the transmission to overheat. Always use thebrake pedal or parking brake.

3-10 o 4WD has higher ground clearance and a
narrower track to make them capable of performing in a wide variety of off roadapplications. Specific design characteristicsgive them a higher center of gravity thanordinary cars. An advantage of the higherground clearance is a better view of the roadallowing you to anticipate problems. Theyare not designed for cornering at the samespeeds as conventional 2-wheel drive vehi-cles any more than low-slung sports carsare designed to perform satisfactorily underoff-road conditions. If at all possible, avoidsharp turns or abrupt maneuvers. As withother vehicles of this type, failure to operatethis vehicle correctly may result in loss ofcontrol or vehicle rollover.
o Do not grip the inside or spokes of the steering wheel when driving off-road. Thesteering wheel could jerk and injure yourhands. Always firmly hold the outer steeringwheel when you are driving off-road.
o Drive at lower speeds in strong crosswinds. Because of your vehicle’s high center ofgravity, its stability will be affected in cross-
winds. Slower speeds ensure better vehiclecontrol.
o Whenever you drive off-road through sand, mud or water as deep as the wheel hub,more frequent maintenance may be required.
o Do not drive in water if the level is higher than the bottom of the wheel hubs. o Check your brake condition once you are
out of mud or water. Press the brake severaltimes as you move slowly until your feelnormal braking forces return.
o Four-wheel driving on flat and normal roads can result in a severe binding conditionwhen turning the steering wheel.

o After being parked, check to be sure the parking brake is not engaged and that the parking brake indicator light is out beforedriving away. o Driving through water may get the brakes
wet. They can also get wet when the vehicleis washed. Your vehicle may not stop asquickly if the brakes are wet and it may alsopull to one side. To dry the brakes, apply thebrakes lightly until the braking action returnsto normal, taking care to keep the vehicleunder control at all times. If the brakingaction does not return to normal, stop assoon as it is safe to do so and call yourHyundai dealer for assistance.
o Don’t coast down hills with the vehicle out of gear. This may be extremely hazardous. Keep the vehicle in gear at all times, use the brakes to slow down, then shift to a lowergear so that engine braking will help youmaintain a safe speed.
o Don’t "ride" the brake pedal. Resting your foot on the brake pedal while driving can bedangerous because it can result in the brakesoverheating and losing their effectiveness. Italso increases the wear of the brake compo-nents.
o If a tire goes flat while you are driving, apply the brakes gently and keep the vehicle point-ed straight ahead while you slow down.When you are moving slowly enough for it tobe safe to do so, pull off the road and stopin a safe place.

o Use caution when parking on a hill. Engage the parking brake and place the gear selec-tor lever in "P"(automatic transmission) or infirst or reverse gear (manual transmission).If your vehicle is facing downhill, turn thefront wheels away from the curb to helpkeep the vehicle from rolling. If there is nocurb or if it is required by other conditions tokeep the vehicle from rolling, block thewheels.
o Under some conditions your parking brake can freeze in the engaged position. This ismost likely to happen when there is anaccumulation of snow or ice around or nearthe rear brakes or if the brakes are wet. ifthere is a risk that the parking brake mayfreeze, apply it only temporarily while youput the gear selector lever in "P" (automatic)or in first or reverse gear (manual transmis-sion) and block the rear wheels so thevehicle cannot roll. Then release the parkingbrake.

All the parts of the brake system are critical to safety. Have the vehicle serviced by an autho-rized HYUNDAI dealer at regular intervals ac-cording to the service standards.
(1) The service brake is divided into two brake circuits so that when one brake circuit fails,the other is available to stop the vehicle. Ifthis occurs, however, the brake pedal mustbe depressed further than usual; stop driv-ing as soon as possible and have the brakesystem serviced at the nearest authorizedHYUNDAI dealer.
(2) Do not place a thick floor mat around the brake pedal; doing so could prevent the fullpedal stroke that would be necessary in anemergency. Make sure that the pedal canbe operated freely at all times.
GT30170A
(3) If the vehicle is equipped with a brake warn-ing lamp, the lamp will light up if the brake fluid level is abnormally low.
(4) If the vehicle is equipped with a brake boost- er, the brake boosting force is lost after thebrake pedal is depressed once or twicewhile the engine is off. If this occurs, thebrake will require greater force than usual. This is especially important when the ve- hicle is being towed.
(5) Check the brake system while driving at a low speed immediately after starting, espe-cially when the brakes are wet, to confirmthat it works normally. A film of water can form on the brake discs or brake drums and prevent normal func-tioning after driving in heavy rain or throughlarge puddles, or after the vehicle is washed.If this occurs, repeatedly tap the brake pedallightly while driving to dry out the brakes.

(1) When parking on a hill, fully engage the parking brake and set the gear shift lever to 1st or reverse position. It is recommendedto use chocks for greater safety.
(2) Do not keep the engine running for a long time in a closed or poorly ventilated place.Carbon monoxide gas is odourless and ex-tremely poisonous and dangerous.
(6) It is important to take advantage of the
braking power of the engine by shifting to alower gear while driving on steep downhillroads in order to prevent the brakes fromoverheating.
(7) Periodically confirm that the brake warning lamp functions properly.
(8) With new brake linings, if possible, avoid applying the brakes fully during the first 200km (124 miles) of driving.
