o If the interior of the vehicle is hot when you
first get in, open the windows for a few minutes to expel the hot air.
o When you are using the air conditioning system, keep all windows closed to keephot air out.
o When you must drive slowly, as in heavy traffic, shift to a lower gear. This increasesengine speed, which in turn increases thespeed of the air conditioning compressor.
o When driving up long grades, turn occa- sionally the air conditioner off to avoid thepossibility of the engine overheating.
o During winter months or in periods when the air conditioner is not used regularly, turn onthe air conditioner switch occasionally for afew minutes. This will help circulate thelubricants and keep your system in peakoperating condition.

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.

9. If the trailer has electric brakes, start your
vehicle and trailer moving, and then apply the trailer brake controller by hand to besure the brakes are working. This lets you
check your electrical connection at the sametime.
10. During your trip, check occasionally to be sure that the load is secure, and that thelights and any trailer brakes are still working.
11. Avoid jerky starts, sudden acceleration or sudden stops.
12. Avoid sharp turns and rapid lane changes.
13. Avoid holding the brake pedal down too long or too frequently. This could cause the brakes to overheat, resulting in reduced brakingefficiency.
14. When going down a hill, shift into a lower gear and use the engine braking effect.When ascending a long grade, downshift the
transmission to a lower gear and reducespeed to reduce chances of engine over-
loading and/or overheating.
15. If you have to stop while going uphill, do not hold the vehicle in place by pressing on theaccelerator. This can cause the automatictransmission to overheat. Use the parkingbrake or footbrake.

Trailer or Vehicle Towing Tips

Trailer or Vehicle Towing Tips
Trailer or Vehicle Towing Tips
1. Before towing, check hitch and safety chain
connections as well as proper operation of the trailer running lights, brake lights, andturn signals.
2. Always drive your vehicle at a moderate speed (Less than 100 km/h).
3. Trailer towing requires more fuel than nor- mal conditions.
4. To maintain engine braking efficiency and electrical charging performance, do not usefifth gear (manual transmission) or overdrive(automatic transmission).
5. Always secure items in the trailer to prevent load shift while driving.
6. Check the condition and air pressure of all tires on the trailer and your car. Low tirepressure can seriously affect the handling.
Also check the spare tire.
7. The vehicle/trailer combination is more af- fected by crosswind and buffeting. Whenbeing passed by a large vehicle, keep aconstant speed and steer straight ahead. Ifthere is too much wind buffeting slow downto get out of the other vehicle’s air turbu-lence.
8. When parking your car and trailer, especial- ly on a hill, be sure to follow all the normalprecautions. Turn your front wheel into the
curb, set the parking brake firmly, and putthe transmission in 1st or Reverse (manual)or Park (automatic). In addition, place wheel
chocks at each of the trailer’s tires. D030A01A-AAT

6. If you cannot find the cause of the overheat-
ing, wait until the engine temperature has returned to normal. Then, if engine coolant
has been lost, carefully remove the radiator
cap and add engine coolant to bring the fluidlevel in the reservoir up to the halfway mark.
7. Proceed with caution, keeping alert for fur- ther signs of overheating. If overheating hap-pens again, call a Hyundai dealer for assis-tance.
