Lane Change Signal
To indicate a lane change, move the lever up or
down to a point where it begins flashing.
The lever will automatically return to the center
position when released.
HLC2072 B340A01A-AAT
Turn Signal Operation
Pulling down on the lever causes the turn sig-
nals on the left side of the car to blink. Pushing
upward on the lever causes the turn signals on
the right side of the car to blink. As the turn is
completed, the lever will automatically return to
the center position and turn off the turn signals
at the same time. If either turn signal indicator
light blinks more rapidly than usual, goes on but
does not blink, or does not go on at all, there is
a malfunction in the system. Check for a burned-
out fuse or bulb or see your Hyundai dealer.

tions:

2. Low-speed operation
3. High-speed operation
NOTE:To prevent damage to the wiper system, do
not attempt to wipe away heavy accumula-
tions of snow or ice. Accumulated snow and
ice should be removed manually. If there is
only a light layer of snow or ice, operate the
heater in the defrost mode to melt the snow or
ice before using the wiper.

lever forward (away from you). The High Beam

HLC2071B350A01A-1B350B01A-AAT
WINDSHIELD WASHER OPERATION
To use the windshield washer, pull the wiper/
washer lever toward the steering wheel. When
the washer lever is operated, the wipers auto-
matically make two passes across the wind-
shield. The washer continues to operate until
the lever is released.
NOTE:o Do not operate the washer more than 15
seconds at a time or when the fluid reser-
voir is empty.
o In icy or freezing weather, be sure the
wiper blades are not frozen to the glass
prior to operating the wipers.
o In areas where water freezes in winter,
use windshield washer antifreeze.

16TRAILER TOWINGUSE OF LIGHTS
C190A01A-AAT
Your Hyundai should not be used to tow a
trailer. It is designed to be compact and light
for good fuel economy, and is not designed as
a trailer-towing vehicle. Damages or malfunc-
tions caused by towing may not be covered by
the limited warranties applying to your Hyundai.
Damages or malfunctions that result from tow-
ing a trailer for commercial purposes are specifi-
cally not covered by Hyundai limited warranties.
C180A01A-AAT
Check your lights regularly for correct opera-
tion and always keep them clean. When driv-
ing during the day in conditions of poor visibil-
ity, it is helpful to drive with headlights on low
beam. This enables you to be seen as well as
to see.
