D140A02P-GAT ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM (ABS) (If installed) The Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) is designed to prevent wheel lock-upduring sudden braking or on hazard- ous road surfaces. A computer moni- tors the wheel speed and controls thepressure applied to each brake. Thus, in emergency situations or on slick roads, your ABS will increase vehiclecontrol during braking. NOTE: During ABS operation, a slight pul- sation may be felt in the brake pedalwhen the brakes are applied. Also, a noise may be heard in the engine compartment while driving. Theseconditions are normal and indicate that the anti-lock brake system is functioning properly. WARNING:
ABS will not prevent accidents dueto improper or dangerous driving maneuvers. Even though vehicle control is improved during emer-gency braking, always maintain a safe distance between you and ob- jects ahead. Vehicle speeds shouldalways be reduced during extreme road conditions. The braking distance for carsequipped with an anti-lock braking system may be longer than for those without it in the following road con-ditions. During these conditions, the ve- hicle should be driven at reducedspeeds:
o On rough, gravel or snow-cov- ered roads.
o With tire chains installed.
o On roads where the road surface
is pitted or has different surface height.
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 trans-mission). If your vehicle is facing downhill, turn the front wheels away from the curb to help keep thevehicle from rolling. If there is no curb or if it is required by other conditions to keep the vehicle fromrolling, block the wheels.
o Under some conditions your park-
ing brake can freeze in the engagedposition. This is most likely to hap- pen when there is an accumulation of snow or ice around or near therear brakes or if the brakes are wet. if there is a risk that the parking brake may freeze, apply it only tem-porarily while you put the gear se- lector lever in "P" (automatic trans- mission) or in first or reverse gear(manual transmission) and block the rear wheels so the vehicle cannot roll. Then release the parking brake.

o Keep your car in good condition. Forbetter fuel economy and reduced maintenance costs, maintain your car in accordance with the mainte- nance schedule in Section 6. If youdrive your car in severe conditions, more frequent maintenance is re- quired (see Section 6 for details).
o Keep your car clean. For maximum service, your Hyundai should bekept clean and free of corrosivematerials. It is especially important that mud, dirt, ice, etc. not be al- lowed to accumulate on the under-side of the car. This extra weight can 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 engine and 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 enginea 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 a lower gear. Over-revving is racingthe engine beyond its safe limit. This can be avoided by shifting at the recommended speeds.
o Use your air conditioning sparingly. The air conditioning system is oper-ated by engine power so your fueleconomy is reduced when you use it.
o Don't "ride" the brake or clutch pedal.
This can increase fuel consumption and also increase wear on these components. In addition, driving with your foot resting on the brake pedalmay cause the brakes to overheat, which reduces their effectiveness and may lead to more serious con-sequences.
o Take care of your tires. Keep them
inflated to the recommended pres-sure. Incorrect inflation, either too much or too little, results in unnec- essary tire wear. Check the tire pres-sures at least once a month.
o Be sure that the wheels are aligned
correctly. Improper alignment canresult from hitting curbs or driving too fast over irregular surfaces. Poor alignment causes faster tire wearand may also result in other prob- lems as well as greater fuel con- sumption.

7. After the spare tire fully raised, tighten by hand to about 30 kg .
f
(295 N). Then, remove the spare tire carrier wrench with care not to turn it in thereverse direction. Now, ensure that the tire is secured in position.
CAUTION:
If you cannot secure the spare tire in position, load it on the cargodeck and ask your nearest service shop for inspection.

E050D01PD050A01HP-GAT If a tire goes flat while you are driving:
1. Take your foot off the accelerator
pedal and let the car slow down while driving straight ahead. Do not apply the brakes immediately or at- tempt to pull off the road as this maycause a loss of control. When the car has slowed to such a speed that it is safe to do so, brake carefullyand pull off the road. Drive off the road as far as possible and park on firm, level ground. If you are on adivided highway, do not park in the median area between the two traffic lanes.
2. When the car is stopped, turn on your emergency hazard flashers,set the parking brake and put thetransmission in "P" (automatic trans- mission) or reverse (manual trans- mission).
3. Have all passengers get out of the car. Be sure they all get out on theside of the car that is away fromtraffic.
4. Change the tire according to the
instructions provided as following.

C190B01S-AAT Trailer Hitches Select the proper hitch and ball combi- nation, making sure that its location iscompatible with that of the trailer or vehicle being towed. Use a quality non-equalizing hitch which distributesthe tongue load uniformly throughout the chassis. The hitch should be bolted securely to the car and installed by a qualified technician. DO NOT USE A HITCHDESIGNED FOR TEMPORARY IN- STALLATION AND NEVER USE ONE THAT ATTACHES ONLY TO THEBUMPER.C190C01P-GAT Trailer Brakes If your trailer is equipped with a braking system, make sure it conforms to fed-eral and/or local regulations and that it is properly installed and operating cor- rectly. NOTE: If you tow a trailer or vehicle, your car will require more frequent main-tenance due to the additional load. See "Maintenance Under Severe Usage Conditions" on page 6-11.
CAUTION:
o Never connect a trailer brake sys- tem directly to the vehicle brakesystem.
o When towing a trailer on steep
grades (in excess of 12%) payclose attention to the engine cool- ant temperature gauge to ensure the engine does not overheat. Ifthe needle of the coolant tem- perature gauge moves across the dial towards "H" (HOT), pull over

C190A01A-GAT TRAILER OR VEHICLE TOWING If you are considering towing with your car, you should first check with yourProvince Department of Motor Vehicles to determine their legal requirements. Since laws vary from province to prov-ince, the requirements for towing trail- ers, cars, other types of vehicles, or apparatus may differ. Ask your Hyundaidealer for further details before towing.
CAUTION:
Do not do any towing with your carduring its first 2,000 km (1,200 miles)in order to allow the engine to prop- erly break in. Failure to heed this caution may result in serious en-gine or transmission damage.

!WARNING:
o Improperly loading your car and trailer can serious affect its steer- ing and braking performance causing a crash in which youmay be seriously injured.
o For automatic transmission ve-
hicles, the trailer should be towedwith the towing vehicle unloaded, with the exception of the driver. Otherwise, the automatic trans-mission oil temperature may rise to a temperature that may result in serious damage of the auto- matic transmission. C190F01A-GAT Trailer or Vehicle Towing Tips
1. Before towing, check hitch and
safety chain connections as well as proper operation of the trailer run- ning 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 transmission) or overdrive (automatic transmission).
5. Always secure items in the trailer to prevent load shift while driving.
6. Check the condition and air pres- sure of all tires on the trailer and your car. Low tire pressure can se- riously affect the handling. Alsocheck the spare tire.
7. The vehicle/trailer combination is
more affected by crosswind andbuffeting. When being passed by a large vehicle, keep a constant speed and steer straight ahead. If there is too much wind buffeting, slow downto get out of the other vehicle’s air turbulence.
8. When parking your car and trailer, especially on a hill, be sure to followall the normal precautions. Turn your front wheel into the curb, set theparking brake firmly, and put the transmission in 1st or "R" (manual transmission) or "P" (automatictransmission). In addition, place wheel chocks at each of the trailer’s tires.
9. If the trailer has electric brakes, start your vehicle and trailer mov-ing, and then apply the trailer brakecontroller by hand to be sure the brakes are working. This lets you check your electrical connection atthe same time.
10.During your trip, check occasion-
ally to be sure that the load issecure, and that the lights and any trailer brakes are still working.
11.Avoid jerky starts, sudden accel- eration or sudden stops.
12.Avoid sharp turns and rapid lane
changes.

18BLEEDING THE FUEL SYSTEM
CAUTION:
If overheating should occur when towing, (temperature gauge reads near red zone), taking the followingaction may reduce or eliminate the problem.
1. Turn off the air conditioner.
2. Reduce highway speed.
3. Select a lower gear when going uphill.
4. While in stop and go traffic, place
the gear selection in park or neu-tral and idle the engine at a higher speed.
! E090A01P-GAT The fuel system should be bled to remove air as described in the illustra-tion if the fuel supply is exhausted during travel, when the fuel filter is replaced, or if the vehicle is not usedfor a long time.
1. Loosen the air plug at the top of the
fuel filter. E090A01P
13.Avoid holding the brake pedal down
too long or too frequently. This could cause the brakes to overheat, re- sulting in reduced braking efficiency.
14.When going down a hill, shift into a
lower gear and use the engine brak-ing effect. When ascending a long grade, downshift the transmissionto a lower gear and reduce speed to reduce chances of engine over- loading and/or overheating.
15.If you have to stop while going uphill, do not hold the vehicle inplace by pressing on the accelera-tor. This can cause the automatic transmission to overheat. Use the parking brake or footbrake.
NOTE: When towing, check transmission fluid more frequently.

1. Open the hood, being careful to
keep hands, long hair and clothing clear of any moving parts.
2. Remove the transmission dipstick, wipe it clean, reinsert the dipstickas far as it will go, then remove it again. Now check the fluid level on the dipstick. It should be in the"HOT" range on the dipstick.
3. If the transmission fluid level is
low, use a funnel to add transmis-sion fluid through the dipstick tube until the level reaches the "HOT" range. Do not overfill, otherwisethe transmission could be dam- aged. Full mark Good

To Check the transmission Fluid Level
Park the vehicle on level ground with
the parking brake engaged. When the transmission fluid level is checked, the transmission fluid should be atnormal operating temperature and the engine idling.
While the engine is idling, apply the
brakes and move the gear selector lever from "P" to each of its otherpositions-"R", "N", "D", "2", "L"-and then return to "N" or "P" with the engine still idling: HSR3073
