Always use care to change the gear with the vehicle speed matched to the engine speed. Proper shifting will improve fuel economy andprolong engine life. Avoid shifting down at excessively high speed, doing so could damage the engine.

However, the shift-up to 3rd gear isdone when the vehicle speed exceeds a certainvalue to prevent the engine from over-running.

The electronically controlled dual-range (Pow-

According to the road conditions, set the switch
at the "NORMAL", "POWER" or "HOLD" modefor normal driving, for greater power driving orfor shift stage hold driving.
Each time you press the switch, the "NOR-
MAL", "POWER" and "HOLD" modes will switchalternately. The "POWER" and "HOLD" indica-tor in the instrument panel comes on or off.Normally, drive your vehicle in the "NORMAL"mode where the switch is not pressed. (The"PWR" and "HOLD" indicators go out.) D070B01P-GAT

When you need quick acceleration or engine
braking power on a downhill grade, or when youare going to go up a long hill, press the "Hold"switch once again to cancel the "Hold" function.
When "Hold" button is depressed, "Hold" indi-
cator light in the instrument cluster will illumi-nate and automatic shifting will be performed inthe range from 2nd gear to 3rd gear only, asshown in the table.

When theoverdrive switch is turned off, the transmissionwill not upshift to the overdrive gear at all. For normal driving, the selector lever should be left in the "D" position and the overdrive switchturned on. To move the selector lever, the pushbutton on the selector lever handle may have tobe depressed first. If you need to accelerate rapidly, press the accelerator pedal all the way to the floor.

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.
