o Be sure that the cassette label is not
loose or peeling off or tape ejection
may be difficult.
o Never touch or soil the actual audio
tape surfaces.
o Keep all magnetized objects, such as electric motors, speakers or trans-
formers away from your cassette
tapes and tape player unit.
o Store cassettes in a cool, dry place
with the open side facing down to
prevent dust from setting in the cas-
sette body.
o We strongly recommend against the
use of tapes longer than C-60 (60
minutes total). Tapes such as C-
120 or C-180 are very thin and do
not perform as well in the automo-
tive environment. o Avoid repeated fast reverse usage
to replay one given tune or tape
section. This can cause poor tape
winding to occur, and eventually
cause excessive internal drag and
poor audio quality in the cassette. If
this occurs, it can sometimes be
corrected by fast winding the tape
from end to end several times. If this
does not correct the problem, do not
continue to use the tape in your
vehicle.
B860A01A-AAT
CARE OF CASSETTE TAPES
Proper care of your cassette tapes will
extend the tape life and increase your
listening enjoyment. Always protect
your tapes and cassette cases from
direct sunlight, severely cold and dusty
conditions. When not in use, cassettes
should always be stored in the original
protective cassette case. When the
vehicle is very hot or cold, allow the
interior temperature to become more
comfortable before listening to your
cassettes.
o Never leave a cassette inserted in
the player when not being played.
This could damage the tape player
unit and the cassette tape. B860A01L

SC130A1-E OVERDRIVE SWITCH
The overdrive switch prevents the transaxle upshifting higher than thirdgear when the switch is turned "OFF".The transaxle will start from rest in firstgear and upshift to second and thirdgear depending upon the roadspeed and throttle opening but will not upshift to fourth gear. When the overdriveswitch is turned "ON", the transaxlewill start from rest in first gear and willupshift, depending upon roadspeedand throttle opening to second, third and fourth gear. Therefore, when the overdrive switch is turned "OFF", thetransaxle performs as a three speedunit and the overdrive warning light
o When ascending steep gradients
using large throttle openings, thetransaxle may re-peatedly changebetween two adjacent ratios. This isa normal characteristic and may be prevented by cancelling the over- drive facility if the shifting occursbetween third and fourth ratios, se-lecting position "2" if the shiftingoccurs between third and secondratios or selecting position "1" if the shifting occurs between first and second ratios.
o Never move the selector to or from
the "P" or "N" position with the ac-celerator depressed.
o Ensure that the overdrive switch is at the "ON" position for maximumeconomy.
o If rapid acceleration is required, fully
depress the accelerator pedal. Inthis condition, the kickdown mecha-nism will be operated and the transaxle will automatically down- shift according to the vehicle speed. o The automatic transaxle may be
used to great effect if the vehiclebecomes stuck in snow or mud byallowing the vehicle to be rocked toand fro. The engine speed should be held at approximately 1,000rpm by means of the accelerator pedaland the selector lever moved be-tween the "D" and "R" positions toinduce a rocking motion.
o Do not depress the accelerator pedal with the brakes applied and the se-lector at the "R", "D", "2" or "L"position.
o Turn the overdrive switch on for good fuel economy and smooth driv-ing. But if engine braking is needed in the "D" range or if repeated up- shifting and downshifting betweenthe 3rd and 4th gear is needed whenclimbing a gentle slope, it is recom-mended that the overdrive switchbe turned off. Turn the overdrive switch back on immediately after- ward.

SC140B1-E ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM (Not all models) The Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) is designed to prevent wheel lock-upduring sudden braking or on hazard-ous road surfaces. The ABS controlmodule monitors the wheel speed and controls the pressure applied to each brake. Thus, in emergency situationsor on slick roads, ABS will increasevehicle control during braking. NOTE: During ABS operation, a slight pul- sation may be felt in the brake pedal when the brakes are applied. Also, a noise may be heard in the enginecompartment whilst braking. Theseconditions are normal and indicatethat the anti-lock brake system isfunctioning properly.
located in the instrument cluster will beilluminated. When the overdrive switchis turned "ON", the transaxle functionsas a fully automatic four speed unitwith the maximum fuel economy po- tential of the vehicle being realized. SC140A1-E EFFECTIVE BRAKING Braking system performance and fric- tion material life are greatly affected by the driving style adopted. The follow-ing suggestions are made to assist inachieving the best results from thebraking system.
o Anticipate the road and conditions
ahead in order that heavy braking may be avoided.
o When descending long gradients,
use the engine to assist in retardingthe vehicle to minimize the possibil- ity of brake fade occurring.
o When trailer towing, ensure that the
trailer brakes function correctly and use engine braking to assist thevehicle braking system. o Use only genuine Hyundai replace-
ment brake pads and shoes to en-sure consistent friction characteris-tics and wear rates.
o After driving through deep water (e.g. fording), the brakes may be-come wet and performance reduced.Always check brake efficiency afteremerging from the water and dry thebrakes by lightly depressing thebrake pedal several times whilst driving slowly.
o Apply the parking brake only when the vehicle is at rest.
o Since the power assistance pro- vided by the brake servo is derived from the engine, coasting with the engine turned off or towing of the vehicle with the engine turned offwill result in greatly increased pedalpressures being required to stop thevehicle.
o Do not hold the vehicle on the up- grade with the accelerator pedal.This can cause the transmission tooverheat. Always use the brakepedal or parking brake.

!WARNING:
ABS will not prevent accidents due to improper or dangerous drivingmaneuvers. Even though vehicle control is improved during emer- gency braking, always maintain asafe distance between you and ob-jects ahead. Vehicle speeds shouldalways be reduced during extremeroad conditions. The braking distance for cars equipped with an anti-lock brakingsystem may be longer than for thosewithout it in the following road con-ditions.
o Driving on rough, gravel or snow- covered roads.
o Driving with tyre chains installed.
o Driving on roads where the road
surface is pitted or has differentsurface height. These roads should be driven at reduced speeds. The safety features of an ABS equipped vehicle shouldnot be tested by high speed drivingor cornering. This could endangerthe safety of yourself or others. SC150A1-F DRIVING FOR ECONOMY You can save fuel and get more miles from your car if you follow these sug-gestions:
o Drive smoothly. Accelerate at a
moderate rate. Don't make "jack- rabbit" starts or full-throttle shiftsand maintain a steady cruisingspeed. Don't race between stop-lights. Try to adjust your speed tothat of the other traffic so you don't have to change speeds unneces- sarily.Avoid heavy traffic whenever pos-sible. Al-ways maintain a safe dis-tance from other vehicles so youcan avoid unnecessary braking. This also reduces brake wear. o Drive at a moderate speed. The
faster you drive, the more fuel your car uses. Driving at a moderatespeed, especially on the highway, isone 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 increase wear on thesecomponents. In addition, driving withyour foot resting on the brake pedal may cause the brakes to overheat, which reduces their effectivenessand may lead to more serious con-sequences.
o Take care of your tyres. Keep them inflated to the recommended pres- sure. Incorrect infla-tion, either too much or too little, results in unnec-essary tyre wear. Check the tyrepres-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 surfaces. Pooralignment causes faster tyre wearand may also result in other prob-lems as well as greater fuel con-sumption.
