AM reception
IonosphereFM reception
SSAR010A FM broadcasts are transmitted at high frequen- cies and do not bend to follow the earth's surface. Because of this, FM broadcasts generally begin to fade at short distances from the station. Also, FM signals are easily affected by buildings, moun- tains, or other obstructions. These can result in certain listening conditions which might lead you to believe a problem exists with your radio. The following conditions are normal and do not indi- cate radio trouble:
AM broadcasts can be received at greater dis-tances than FM broadcasts. This is because AM radio waves are transmitted at low frequencies. These long, low frequency radio waves can follow the curvature of the earth rather than travelling straight out into the ionosphere. In addition, they curve around obstructions so that they can provide better signal coverage.
B750A02A-AAT STEREO SOUND SYSTEM How Car Audio Works AM and FM radio signals are broadcast from transmitter towers located around your city. They are intercepted by the radio antenna on your car. This signal is then received by the radio and sent to your car speakers. When a strong radio signal has reached your vehicle, the precise engineering of your audio system ensures the best possible quality repro- duction. However, in some cases the signal coming to your vehicle may not be strong and clear. This can be due to factors such as the distance from the radio station, closeness of other strong radio stations or the presence of buildings, bridges or other large obstructions in the area.

C350A01HP-GAT Part-time 4WD operation
1. Knob position This is used to set different positions. 2H(Rear-wheel drive) When driving on normal roads and highway. 4H(High range 4-wheel drive) When driving off-road, wet or snow-covered roads with normal speed. The 4WD engaged indicator light ( ) will be turned on to remind you that you are in the 4H mode. 4L(Low range 4-wheel drive) Use "4L" for climbing or descending steep hills, off-road driving, and towing the vehicle. Especially when increased drive power is re- quired. The 4WD LOW indicator light ( ) will be turned on to remind you that you are in the 4L mode.
2. Transfer shift knob operation By turning the transfer shift knob(4H, 4L), both axles of the vehicle are rigidly connected with each other. This improves the traction character- istics.2H

4H
Turn the transfer shift knob from the 2H mode tothe 4H mode at speed below 80 km/h. It is not necessary to depress the clutch pedal (Manual Transmission) or put the shift lever into "N(neutral)" position (Automatic Transmission). Perform this operation when driving straight.

D090E01HP-GAT Driving Four-wheel drive safely
o The driving posture should be more uprightand closer to the wheel than usual; adjust the seat to a good position for easy steering and pedal operation.
o Be sure to wear the seat belt.
o Drive carefully when off the road and avoid dangerous areas.
o 4WD has higher ground clearance and a
narrower track to make them capable of per-forming in a wide variety of off road applica- tions. Specific design characteristics give them a higher center of gravity than ordinary cars. An advantage of the higher ground clearance is a better view of the road allowing you to anticipate problems. They are not designed for cornering at the same speeds as 4H

3. Select the 4H mode.
CAUTION: Do not select 4WD (4H or 4L) mode on dry paved roads. Especially on dry high way, never select the 4WD mode. Four-wheel driving on dry paved roads for a long period will increase the fuel consump- tion with possible noise generation and early tire wear. In addition, differential oil temper- ature increases with possible driving system part wear.

1. Stop the vehicle.
2. Depress the clutch pedal (Manual Trans- mission) or put the shift lever into "N (neu-tral)" position (Automatic Transmission).
3. Turn the transfer shift knob to "AUTO" mode. Driving 4WD Safely
(1) Be sure to wear the seat belt.
(2) Drive at lower speeds in strong crosswinds. Because of your vehicle’s high center of gravity, its stability will be affected in cross- winds. Slower speeds ensure better vehicle control.
(3) Check the brake condition after driving in wet or muddy conditions. Press the brakeseveral times as you move slowly until you feel normal braking forces return.
(4) Do not drive the vehicle through water. (i.e. streams, rivers, lakes, etc.)
(5) The stopping distance of the full-time 4WD vehicle differs very little from that of the 2WD vehicle.
When driving on a snow-covered road or a slippery, muddy surface, make sure thatyou keep a sufficient distance between your vehicle and the one ahead of you.
(6) Since the driving torque is always applied to
the 4 wheels, the performance of the full- time 4WD vehicle is greatly affected by the condition of the tires. Be sure to equip it with all four tires of the same size and type. o When replacement of any of the tires or
disc wheels is necessary, replace all ofthem.
o Rotate the tires and check the tire pres- sure at regular intervals.
(7) The full-time 4WD vehicle cannot be towed by an ordinary tow truck. Makesure that the vehicle is towed with its four wheels raised off the ground.
o If the vehicle is towed with its only two wheels raised off the ground, the 4WDsystem could be damaged.
o In unavoidable case, if the vehicle is being towed with all four wheels on theground, it should be towed only forward direction with rope.
o While towing, check the following items. 1. The ignition switch is in "ACC" or"ON".
2. Place the shift lever in neutral (For Automatic Transmission, "N" posi-tion).
3. Release the parking brake.
NOTE: To avoid serious damage to your 4WD ve- hicle, limit towing to 15km/h (10 mph) and not for more than 1.5km (1 mile) at ANY TIME.
(8) For speedometer test or inspection/mainte- nance (I/M) program of full-time 4WD ve- hicle, use a four-wheel chassis dynamom- eter.
CAUTION:Never engage the parking brake while per- forming these tests.
o In rare cases when it's unavoidable that a 4WD vehicle is to be inspected for speed- ometer test on 2WD roll tester, strictly follow the procedures next.
1. Check the tire pressures recommended for your vehicle.
2. Place the rear wheels on the roll tester
for speedometer test as shown in theillustration.
3. Release the parking brake.
4. Place the front wheels on the temporary free roller as shown in the illustration.

C160H01A-AAT Use Approved Anti-Freeze in Window Washer System To keep the water in the window washer system from freezing, add an approved anti-freeze solu- tion in accordance with instructions on the con- tainer. Window washer anti-freeze is available from Hyundai dealers and most auto parts out- lets. Do not use engine coolant or other types of anti-freeze as these may damage the finish.
C160F01A-AAT Check Spark Plugs and Ignition System Inspect your spark plugs as described in Section 6 and replace them if necessary. Also check all ignition wiring and components to be sure they are not cracked, worn or damaged in any way.
C160G02A-GAT To Keep Locks from Freezing To keep the locks from freezing, squirt an ap- proved de-icer fluid or glycerine into the key opening. If a lock is covered with ice, squirt it with an approved de-icing fluid to remove the ice. If the lock is frozen internally, you may be able to thaw it out by using a heated key. Handle the heated key with care to avoid
injury.
NOTE: The proper temperature for using the immo- bilizer key is from -40°C (-40°F) to 80°C (176°F). If you heat the immobilizer key over 80°C (176°F) to open the frozen lock, it may cause damage to the transponder in its head. C160I01HP-GAT Don’t Let Your Parking Brake Freeze Under some conditions your parking brake can freeze in the engaged position. This is most likely to happen when there is an accumulation of snow or ice around or near the rear brakes or if the brakes are wet. If there is a risk the parking brake may freeze, apply it only temporarily while you put the gear selector lever in "P" (automatic) or in first or reverse gear (manual transmission) and block the rear wheels so the car cannot roll. Then release the parking brake. C160K01A-AAT Carry Emergency Equipment Depending on the severity of the weather where you drive your car, you should carry appropriate emergency equipment. Some of the items you may want to carry include tire chains, tow straps or chains, flashlight, emergency flares, sand, a shovel, jumper cables, a window scraper, gloves, ground cloth, coveralls, a blanket, etc.
C160J01A-AAT Don’t Let Ice and Snow Accumulate Underneath Under some conditions, snow and ice can build up under the fenders and interfere with the steer- ing. When driving in severe winter conditions where this may happen, you should periodically check underneath the car to be sure the move- ment of the front wheels and the steering compo- nents is not obstructed.
C180A01A-AAT USE OF LIGHTS Check your lights regularly for correct operation and always keep them clean. When driving dur- ing the day in conditions of poor visibility, it is helpful to drive with headlights on low beam. This enables you to be seen as well as to see.
C170A01A-AAT HIGHER SPEED MOTORING Pre-Trip Inspections 1. Tires: Adjust the tire inflation pressures to specifica- tion. Low tire inflation pressures will result in overheating and possible failure of the tires. Avoid using worn or damaged tires which may result in reduced traction or tire failure. NOTE: Never exceed the maximum tire inflation pres- sure shown on the tires. 2. Fuel, engine coolant and engine oil: High speed travel consumes more fuel than urban motoring. Do not forget to check both engine coolant and engine oil. 3. Drive belt: A loose or damaged drive belt may result in overheating of the engine.

DRIVING YOUR HYUNDAI
2- 16 C190D01A-GAT Safety Chains Should the hitch connection between your car and the trailer or vehicle you are towing fail, the trailer or vehicle could wander dangerously across other lanes of traffic and ultimately collide with another vehicle. To eliminate this potentially dan- gerous situation, safety chains, attached be- tween your car and the trailer or towed vehicle, are required in most provinces. C190E02HP-GAT Trailer Weight Limit
Tongue load Total trailer weightSSA2200B
Tongue loads can be increased or decreased by re-distributing the load in the trailer. This can be verified by checking the total weight of the loaded trailer and then checking the load on the tongue.
C190A01HP-GAT TRAILER OR VEHICLE TOWING If you are considering towing with your car, you should first check with your Province Depart- ment of Motor Vehicles to determine their legal requirements. Since laws vary from province to province the requirements for towing trailers, cars, or other types of vehicles or apparatus may differ. Ask your Hyundai dealer for further details before towing. CAUTION: Do not do any towing with your car during its first 2,000 km (1,200 miles) in order to allow the engine to properly break in. Failure to heed this caution may result in serious en- gine or transmission damage. C190B01S-AAT Trailer HitchesSelect the proper hitch and ball combination, making sure that it’s location is compatible with that of the trailer or vehicle being towed. Use a quality non-equalizing hitch which distrib- utes the tongue load uniformly throughout the chassis. The hitch should be bolted securely to the car and installed by a qualified technician. DO NOT USE A HITCH DESIGNED FOR TEMPORARY INSTALLATION AND NEVER USE ONE THAT ATTACHES ONLY TO THE BUMPER. C190C02Y-GAT Trailer Brakes If your trailer is equipped with a braking system, make sure it conforms to federal and/or local regulations and that it is properly installed and operating correctly. NOTE: If you tow a trailer or vehicle, your car will require more frequent maintenance due to the additional load. See "Maintenance Under Severe Usage Conditions" on page 5-6. CAUTION:
o Never connect a trailer brake system di-
rectly to the vehicle brake system.
o When towing a trailer on steep grades (in excess of 12%) pay close attention to theengine coolant temperature gauge to en- sure the engine does not overheat. If the needle of the coolant temperature gauge moves across the dial towards "H" (HOT), pull over and stop as soon as it is safe to do so, and allow the engine to idle until it cools down. You may proceed once the engine has cooled sufficiently.
