DRIVING YOUR HYUNDAI 2- 13
o Don’t "ride" the brake pedal. Resting your foot
on the brake pedal while driving can be dan- gerous because it can result in the brakes overheating and losing their effectiveness. It also increases the wear of the brake com- ponents.
o If a tire goes flat while you are driving, apply
the brakes gently and keep the car pointed straight ahead while you slow down. When you are moving slowly enough for it to be safe to do so, pull off the road and stop in a safe place.
o If your car is equipped with an automatic
transmission, don’t let your car creep for- ward. To avoid creeping forward, keep your foot firmly on the brake pedal when the car is stopped.
o Use caution when parking on a hill. Engage the parking brake and place the gear selector lever in "P" (automatic transmission) or in first or reverse gear (manual transmission). If your car is facing downhill, turn the front wheels into the curb to help keep the car from rolling. If your car is facing uphill, turn the front wheels away from the curb to help keep the car from rolling. If there is no curb or if it is required by other conditions to keep the car from rolling, block the wheels.
o Under some conditions your parking brake
can freeze in the engaged position. This is most likely to happen when there is an ac- cumulation of snow or ice around or near the rear brakes or if the brakes are wet. If there is a risk that the parking brake may freeze, apply it only temporarily while you put thegear 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.
o Do not hold the vehicle on the upgrade with the accelerator pedal. This can cause the transmission to overheat. Always use the brake pedal or parking brake.
C140A01A-AAT DRIVING FOR ECONOMY You 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.
o Take care of your tires. Keep them inflated to the recommended pressure. Incorrect infla- tion, either too much or too little, results in unnecessary tire wear. Check the tire pres- sures at least once a month.
o Be sure that the wheels are aligned correctly.
Improper alignment can result from hitting curbs or driving too fast over irregular surfac- es. Poor alignment causes faster tire wear and may also result in other problems as well as greater fuel consumption.
o Keep your car in good condition. For better
fuel economy and reduced maintenance costs, maintain your car in accordance with the maintenance schedule in Section 5. If you drive your car in severe conditions, more frequent maintenance is required (see Sec- tion 5 for details).
o Keep your car clean. For maximum service, your Hyundai should be kept clean and free of corrosive materials. It is especially important that mud, dirt, ice, etc. not be allowed to accumulate on the underside of the car. This extra weight can result in increased fuel con- sumption and also contribute to corrosion.
o Travel lightly. Don't carry unnecessary weight
in your car. Weight reduces fuel economy.
o Don't let the engine idle longer than neces-
sary. If you are waiting (and not in traffic), turn off your engine and restart only when you're ready to go.

When the release valve is difficult to turn by jack handle, connect the wheel nut wrench to the jack handle. CAUTION:
(1) Use only the jack included with the vehicle
and use it only for changing a wheel andfor installing tire chains.
(2) Position the jack on a hard, level surface.
(3) If the release valve is loosened by turning it 2 or more times in the counterclockwisedirection, the jack's oil will leak and the jack cannot be used.
(4) This jack is hydraulic, and the ram is a two stage type. When both rams are raised and the stop mark of the upper ram be- comes visible, stop jacking immediately.
WARNING: Do not get under the car when it is supported by the jack! This is very dangerous as the vehicle could fall and cause serious injury or death. No one should stay in the car while the jack is being used. D060G01A-AAT 7. Changing Wheels Use the wrench to loosen the wheel nuts, then remove them with your fingers. Remove the wheel cover (if installed) from the wheel and slide the wheel off the studs and lay it flat so it cannot roll away. To put the wheel on the hub, pick up the spare tire, line up the holes with the studs and slide the wheel onto them. If this is difficult, tip the wheel slightly and get the top hole in the wheel lined up with the top stud. Then jiggle the wheel back and forth until the wheel can be slid over the other studs.

Position the jack with the jack handle. Position it only at the specified points indicated in the "Put the Jack in Place". Use of the jack at other points could damage the car. Moving the jack handle up and down to raise the ram. As the jack begins to raise the vehicle, double check that it is properly positioned and will not slip. Raise the car high enough so that the fully inflated spare tire can be installed. To do this, you will need more ground clearance than is required to remove the flat tire. Using the jack handle, turn the release valve counterclockwise slow to lower the ram, and then take out the jack.

WHAT TO DO IN AN EMERGENCY
3-8 Lower the car to the ground by moving the jack handle up and down. Then position the wrench as shown in the drawing and tighten the wheel nuts. Be sure the socket is seated completely over the nut. Do not stand on the wrench handle or use an extension pipe over the wrench handle. Go around the wheel tightening every other nut until they are all tight. Then double-check each nut for tightness. After changing wheels, have a technician tighten the wheel nuts to their proper torque as soon as possible. Wheel nut tightening torque: Steel wheel & aluminium alloy wheel: 900-1,100 kg.cm (65-80 lb.ft)

D060H01A-AAT 8. Reinstall Wheel Nuts To reinstall the wheel cover, hold it on the wheel and put the wheel nuts on the studs and tighten them finger tight. The nuts should be installed with their small diameter ends directed inward. Jiggle the tire to be sure it is completely seated, then tighten the nuts with your fingers again.
D060H01HPWARNING: Wheel covers may have sharp edges. Handle them carefully to avoid possible severe in- jury. Before putting the wheel into place, be sure that there is nothing on the hub or wheel (such as mud, tar, gravel, etc.) that interferes with the wheel from fitting solidly against the hub. If there is, remove it. If there is not good contact on the mounting surface between the wheel and hub, the wheel nuts could come loose and cause the loss of a wheel. Loss of a wheel may result in loss of control of the vehicle. This may cause serious injury or death.

4. Loosen Wheel Nuts
The wheel nuts should be loosened slightly before raising the car. To loosen the nuts, turn the wheel brace counterclockwise. When doing this, be sure that the socket is seated com-pletely over the nut so it cannot slip off. Formaximum leverage, position the wheel brace sothe handle is to the right as shown in thedrawing. Then, whilst holding the wheel bracenear the end of the handle, pull up on it withsteady pressure. Do not remove the nuts atthis time. Just loosen them about one-half turn.
