To recline the seatback, lean forward to take your weight off it, then pull up on the recliner control lever at theoutside edge of the seat. Now lean back until the desired seatback angle is achieved. To lock the seatback intoposition, release the recliner control lever. B080D02A-AAT Adjustable Headrests Headrests are designed to help re- duce the risk of neck injuries. To raise the headrest, pull it up. Tolower it, push it down while pressing the lock knob.
WARNING:
To minimize risk of severe injury inthe event of a collision or a sudden stop, both the driver and passen- ger seatbacks should always be in an upright position while the ve-hicle is in motion. The protection provided by the seat belts and airbags may be reduced significant-ly when the seatbacks are reclined. There is greater risk that the driver and passenger will slide under theseat belt which may result in seri- ous injury if a crash occurs when the seatbacks are reclined. The seatbelt cannot provide full protection to an occupant if the seat back is reclined.
!
o Do not operate the vehicle with the headrests removed as severe injury to an occupant may occur in the event of an accident. Head- rests may provide protectionagainst severe neck injuries when properly adjusted.
!WARNING:
o For maximum effectiveness in case of an accident, the headrest should be adjusted so the top ofthe headrest is at the same height as the top of the occupant's ears. The use of a cushion that holdsthe body away from the seatback is not recommended.
To adjust the lumbar support, turn the handle on the outboard or left side ofthe seat. To increase the amount of lumbar support, pull the lever forward. To decrease it, push the lever towardthe rear.

C150A01A-AAT SMOOTH CORNERING Avoid braking or gear changing in cor- ners, especially when roads are wet.Ideally, corners should always be taken under gentle acceleration. If you follow these suggestions, tire wear will beheld to a minimum.
o Keep your car in good condition. For
better fuel economy and reducedmaintenance costs, maintain yourcar in accordance with the mainte- nance schedule in Section 5. If you drive your car in severe conditions,more frequent maintenance is re- quired (see Section 5 for details).
o Keep your car clean. For maximum service, your Hyundai should bekept clean and free of corrosive materials. It is especially importantthat mud, dirt, ice, etc. not be al- lowed to accumulate on the under- side of the car. This extra weightcan result in increased fuel con- sumption and also contribute to cor- rosion.
o Travel lightly. Don't carry unneces- sary weight in your car. Weight re-duces fuel economy.
o Don't let the engine idle longer than necessary. If you are waiting (andnot in traffic), turn off your engineand restart only when you're ready to go.
o Remember, your Hyundai does not require extended warm-up. As soonas the engine is running smoothly, you can drive away. In very cold weather, however, give your engine a slightly longer warm-up period.
o Don't "lug" or "over-rev" the engine. Lugging is driving too slowly in toohigh a gear resulting in the engine bucking. If this happens, shift to alower gear. Over-revving is racing the engine beyond its safe limit. This can be avoided by shifting atthe recommended speeds.
o Use your air conditioning sparingly.
The air conditioning system is oper-ated by engine power so your fuel economy is reduced when you use it. C160A01A-AAT WINTER DRIVING The more severe weather conditions of winter result in greater wear andother problems. To minimize the prob- lems of winter driving, you should fol- low these suggestions: C160B01A-GAT Snowy or Icy Conditions To drive your vehicle in deep snow, it may be necessary to use snow tires or to install tire chains on your tires. If snow tires are needed, it is necessary to select tires equivalent in size and type to the original equipment tires.Failure to do so may adversely affect the safety and handling of your car. Speeding, rapid acceleration, suddenbrake applications, and sharp turns are potentially very hazardous prac- tices. During deceleration, use enginebraking to the fullest extent. Sudden brake applications on snowy or icy roads may cause skids to occur. Youneed to keep sufficient distance be- tween the vehicle in front and your vehicle. Also, apply the brake gently. Itshould be noted that installing tire

C160G01A-GAT To Keep Locks from Freezing To keep the locks from freezing, squirt an approved de-icer fluid or glycerineinto the key opening. If a lock is cov- ered with ice, squirt it with an approved de-icing fluid to remove the ice. If thelock is frozen internally, you may be able to thaw it out by using a heated key. Handle the heated key with careto avoid burning your fingers. NOTE: The proper temperature for using the immobilizer key is from -40°C to 80°C. If you heat the immobilizer key over 80°C to open the frozenlock, it may cause damage to the transponder in its head.
C160F01A-AAT Check Spark Plugs and Ignition System Inspect your spark plugs as described in Section 6 and replace them if neces- sary. Also check all ignition wiring andcomponents to be sure they are not cracked, worn or damaged in any way.
chains on the tire will provide a greaterdriving force, but will not prevent side skids. NOTE: Tire chains are not legal in all prov- inces. Check province laws beforefitting tire chains. C160C01A-AAT Use High Quality Ethylene Glycol Coolant Your Hyundai is delivered with high quality ethylene glycol coolant in the cooling system. It is the only type ofcoolant that should be used because it helps prevent corrosion in the cooling system, lubricates the water pump andprevents freezing. Be sure to replace or replenish your coolant in accor- dance with the maintenance schedulein Section 5. Before winter, have your coolant tested to assure that its freez- ing point is sufficient for the tempera-tures anticipated during the winter. C160D01A-AAT Check Battery and Cables Winter puts additional burdens on the battery system. Visually inspect thebattery and cables as described in Section 6. The level of charge in your battery can be checked by your Hyun-dai dealer or a service station. C160E01A-AAT Change to "Winter Weight" Oil if Necessary In some climates it is recommended that a lower viscosity "winter weight" oil be used during cold weather. See Section 9 for recommendations. If youaren't sure what weight oil you should use, consult your Hyundai dealer.

C190D01A-GAT Safety Chains Should the hitch connection between your car and the trailer or vehicle youare towing fail, the trailer or vehicle could wander dangerously across other lanes of traffic and ultimately collidewith another vehicle. To eliminate this potentially dangerous situation, safety chains, attached between your car andthe trailer or towed vehicle, are re- quired in most provinces.
Tongue loads can be increased or decreased by redistributing the load in the trailer. This can be verified by checking the total weight of the loadedtrailer and then checking the load on the tongue. NOTE:
1. Never load the trailer with more
weight in the back than in the front. About 60% of the trailer load should be in the front halfon the trailer and the remaining 40% in the rear.
idle until it cools down. You mayproceed once the engine has cooled sufficiently.
2. The total gross vehicle weight
with trailer must not exceed the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating(GVWR) shown on the vehicle identification plate (see page 8- 1). The total gross vehicle weightis the combined weight of the vehicle, driver, all passengers and their luggage, cargo, hitch,trailer tongue load and other op- tional equipment.
3. The front or rear axle weight must not exceed the Gross Axle WeightRating (GAWR) shown on the vehicle identification plate (see
page 8-2). It is possible that your towing package does not exceed the GVWR but exceeds theGAWR. Improper trailer loading and/or too much luggage in the trunk can overload the rear axle.Redistribute the load and check the axle weight again.
4. The maximum permissible static vertical load on the coupling de-vice ; 44kg

C190F02A-GAT Trailer or Vehicle Towing Tips
1. Before towing, check hitch and
safety chain connections as well as proper operation of the trailerrunning lights, brake lights, and turn signals.
2. Always drive your vehicle at a mod- erate speed (Less than 100 km/h).
3. Trailer towing requires more fuel
than normal conditions.
4. To maintain engine braking effi- ciency and electrical charging per- formance, do not use fifth gear(manual transaxle) or overdrive (au- tomatic transaxle).
5. Always secure items in the trailer to prevent load shift while driving.

Larger Children
Larger children should occupy the rear
seat and be restrained at all times. The
restraint may take the form of a special
safety belt or the original factory fitted
seat belt used in conjunction with an
approved booster cushion depending
upon the size and weight of the child.
Under no circumstances should chil-
dren be allowed to travel standing, kneel-
ing or lying on the seat.
Never allow children to ride in the front
passenger seat.
SB090O1-E
Pregnant Women
The use of a seat belt is recommended
for pregnant women. The seat belt should
be worn as low and snugly as possible
across the hips, not across the abdo-
men. A qualified Medical Practitioner
should be consulted for further informa-
tion. SB090E1-E
Injured Persons
A seat belt should be used when an
injured person is being transported. For
specific recommendations, the advice
of a qualified Medical Practioner should
be sought.
SB090F1-E
Seat Belt Occupancy
The seat belts are designed to be used
by one seat occupant only. The use of
a seat belt by more than one person
increases the levels of injury which
may be sustained in the event of an
accident.
SE090G1-E
Do Not Lie Down
To ensure that the maximum level of
protection may be afforded by the seat
belt system, all passengers should be
sitting in an upright position throughout
the journey. The seat belt will be unable
to afford maximum protection if the
front seats are at or near the fully
reclined position.
!WARNING:
Sitting in a reclined position or lying
down when your vehicle is in motion
can be dangerous. Even if you buckle
up, your seat belts can't do their job
when you're reclined.
The shoulder belt can't do its job
because it won't be against your
body. Instead, it will be in front of
you. In a crash you could go into it
with great force, receiving serious
neck or other injuries.
The lap belt can't do its job either. In
a crash the belt could go up over
your abdomen. The belt forces would
be applied there, not at your strong
pelvic bones. This could cause seri-
ous internal injuries.
For proper protection when the ve-
hicle is in motion, have the seatback
upright. Then sit back in the seat and
wear your seat belt properly. See
page 1-20.
