B020A01S-GAT BREAKING IN YOUR NEW HYUNDAI During the First 2,000 Km (1,200 Miles) No formal "break-in" procedure is re- quired with your new Hyundai. How- ever, you can contribute to the eco- nomical operation and durability of yourHyundai by observing the following recommendations during the first 2,000 km (1,200 miles). B030A01Y-AAT KEYS For greater convenience, your Hyundai has two master keys and a sub key. The master keys will open all locks on your vehicle. The sub key will onlyfunction in the ignition and the door locks. Leaving your sub key with a parkingattendant will ensure that your vehicle's trunk, trunk lid release, glove box com- partment and rear trunk access maynot be unlocked in your absence. NOTE: Before leaving your sub key with a parking attendant, make sure thatthe lock levers of the rear seat back

o Don't drive faster than 88 km/h (55
mph).
o While driving, keep your engine speed (rpm, or revolutions per minute) between 2,000 rpm and 4,000 rpm.
o Use moderate acceleration. Don't start, depress the accelerator pedalfully.
o For the first 300 km (200 miles), try to avoid hard stops.
o Don't lug the engine (in other words, don't drive so slowly in too high a gear that the engine "bucks": shift to a lower gear).
o Whether going fast or slow, vary your speed from time to time.
o Don't let the engine idle longer than 3 minutes for a catalytic converter equipped engine.
o Don't tow a trailer during the first 2,000 km (1,200 miles) of opera-tion.

B030B01L B880A01A-GAT IMMOBILIZER SYSTEM (If installed) The immobilizer system is an anti-theft device, designed to deter automobile theft.
B030B01A-AAT Record Your Key Number A code number is stamped on the number plate that came with the keys to your Hyundai. This key number plate should not be left with the keysbut kept in a safe place, not in the vehicle. The key number should also be recorded in a place where it can befound in an emergency. If you need additional keys, or if you should lose your keys, your authorizedHyundai dealer can make new keys if you can supply the key number. B880B04Y-GAT Three Types of Keys
1) ID key
This key must be used first to regis- ter a unique ID code in the ICM.
2) Master key This key is for general use. It willopen all locks on your vehicle. Oneside of the key has the Hyundai logo and the other side has the "M" sym- bol.
3) Sub key Similar to the master key, this keywill only function in the ignition andthe door locks, but it will not operate the trunk and the glove box. One side of the key has the Hyundai logoand the other side has a "S" symbol.
4) Leaving your sub key with a parking
attendant will ensure that yourvehicle's trunk, trunk lid release, glove box compartment and rear trunk access may not be unlockedin your absence.
NOTE: Before leaving your sub key with a parking attendant, make sure that the lock levers of the seat back lock and the trunk lid lock are switchedto the "LOCK" position.

TRACTION CONTROL INDICATOR LIGHT(If installed)
The traction control indicators change operations according to the switch conditions and whether the system is in operation or not. They will also illu-minate when the ignition key is turned to the "ON" or "START" position, but should go out after three seconds. Ifthe TCS indicator stays on, take your car to your authorized Hyundai dealer and have the system checked. Seesection 2 for more information about the TCS system.
B260D01A-AAT TURN SIGNAL INDICATOR LIGHTS
The blinking green arrows on the in- strument panel show the direction indi- cated by the turn signals. If the arrowcomes on but does not illuminate, blinks more rapidly than normal, or does not illuminate at all, a malfunction in theturn signal system is indicated. Your dealer should be consulted for repairs. B260F01A-AAT
HIGH BEAM INDICATOR LIGHT
The high beam indicator light comes on whenever the headlights areswitched to the high beam or flash position.
B260E01L-GAT

ABS SERVICE REMINDER INDICATOR
When the key is turned to the "ON" position, the Anti-Lock Brake System SRI will come on and then go off in a few seconds. If the ABS SRI remainson, comes on while driving, or does not come on when the key is turned to the "ON" position, this indicates that theremay be a problem with the ABS. If this occurs, have your vehicle checked by your Hyundai dealer assoon as possible. The normal braking system will still be operational, but without the assistance of the anti-lockbrake system.

DRIVING YOUR HYUNDAI 2- 11
C120A02A-AAT ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM (If installed) The Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) is designed to prevent wheel lock-upduring sudden braking or on hazard- ous road surfaces. The ABS control module monitors the wheel speed andcontrols the pressure applied to each brake. Thus, in emergency situations or on slick roads, ABS will increasevehicle control during braking. WARNING:
ABS will not prevent accidents due to improper or dangerous driving maneuvers. Even though vehiclecontrol is improved during emer- gency braking, always maintain a safe distance between you and ob-jects ahead. Vehicle speeds should always be reduced during extreme road conditions.The braking distance for cars equipped with an anti-lock braking system may be longer than for thosewithout it in the following road con- ditions. During these conditions the vehicleshould be driven at reduced speeds.
ating or shifting gears. On a slippery surface, an abrupt change in vehi- cle speed can cause the drive wheelsto lose traction and the vehicle to go out of control.!
!WARNING:
o Avoid high cornering speeds.
o Do not make quick steering wheel movements, such as sharp lane changes or fast, sharp turns.
o Always wear your seat belts.
o In a collision crash, an unbelted person is significantly more likelyto die than a person wearing aseatbelt.
o The risk of rollover is greatly in-
creased if you lose control ofyour vehicle at highway speeds.
o Loss of control often occurs if
two or more wheels drop off theroadway and the driver oversteers to reenter the roadway.
o In the event your vehicle leaves the roadway, do not steer sharply.Instead, slow down before pull- ing back into the travel lanes.
o Never exceed posted speed lim- its. o Excessive depressing of the
accelerater pedal in slippery driv-ing conditions such as pulling out of deep snow or mud may cause severe damage to thetransaxle. Rocking the vehicle is not recommended. Rather, use an appropriate towing method.
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 engine compartment while driving. These conditions are normal and indicatethat the anti-lock brake system is functioning properly.

2- 12 DRIVING YOUR HYUNDAI
On slippery road surfaces, the traction control system (TCS) limits the drive wheels from spinning excessively, thushelping the car to accelerate. It also provides sufficient driving force and steering performance as the car turnsat accelerated speeds. SLIP Control Limits the drive wheels from spinning excessively during starting or while making accelerated turns on slipperyroads to avoid losing the driving force of the front wheels. Driving hints TCS does not actively apply brakes. Be sure to decelerate the car suffi- ciently before entering curves.
CAUTION:
When the TCS indicator blinks, SLIPcontrol function has been activat- ed. It also means that the road is slippery or your car is acceleratingexcessively. In this situation, gen- tly release foot pressure from the accelerator pedal and maintainmoderate speed.

The safety features of an ABSequipped vehicle should not be tested by high speed driving or cornering. This could endanger thesafety of yourself or others.
