D090D02P-GAT Transfer shift switch operation By selecting the transfer shift switch(4H, 4L), the both axles of thevehicle are rigidly connected with each other. This improves the traction char- acteristics.
2H 4H
Select the 4H mode switch at speed below 60~70 km/h. It is not necessary to depress the clutch pedal (manualtransmission) or put the shift lever into "N" position (automatic transmission). Perform this operation when drivingstraight. 4H 2H
Select the 2H mode switch. This canbe done at any speed, and it is notnecessary to depress the clutch pedal (manual transmission) or put the shift lever into "N" position (automatic trans-mission). Perform this operation when driving straight.
CAUTION:
If four wheel drive is to be used, both the left and right free wheel hubs must be set to the "LOCK" position. Do not attempt to drivethe vehicle with the transfer shift switch is selected to either the "4H" or "4L" position if the free wheelhubs are in the "FREE" position. If the setting of the free wheel hubs is to be changed after extended use ofthe brake (such as for descending a long slope), allow them to cool first. The free wheel hubs can be becomeextremely hot and could cause se- vere burns.! D090C01P-GAT Auto vacuum type free wheel hubs (If installed) The auto vacuum type free wheel hub is designed to allow for automatic 4WDengagement when the transfer shift switch is selected to the 4H or 4L position.When engaging and disengaging, the auto vacuum type free wheel hubs will make a clicking noise. This is normal.

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.

D180C01P-GAT Battery The capacity of the battery is reduced at low temperatutes.This is an inevitable result of its chemi- cal and physical properties. This is why a very cold battery, particularlyone that is not fully charged anyway, will only deliver a fraction of the starter current which is normally available.It is recommended that you have the battery checked by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer before the start ofcold weather and, if necessary, have it charged. This not only ensures reliable starting,but a battery which is kept fully charged also has a longer life. C160G02A-AAT 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.
D180G01P-GAT Door locks To prevent the door locks from freez- ing up, the lock cylinders should be masked with tape, etc., when washingthe vehicle in cold weather to prevent the entrance of water.
D180D01P-GAT Washer fluid To ensure proper operation of the wind- shield or rear window at low tempera-tures, anti-freeze should be added to the washer fluid at a rate of one part antifreeze to one part water. D180E01P-GAT Wiper blades Before operating the wipers, check the wiper blades to confirm that they arenot frozen to the windshield or tailgate. If the blades are frozen to the wind- shield or tailgate, do not operate thewipers until the ice has melted and the blades are freed. D180F01P-GAT Ventilation slots The ventilation slots in the headlight housing on the assistant seat side should be brushed clear after a heavysnowfall so that the operation of the heating and ventilation systems will not be impaired.

31LOCKING DIFFERENTIALADDITIONAL EQUIPMENT
D180M02P-GAT It is a good idea to carry a shovel or a short-handled spade in the vehicle during the winter so that you can clear away snow if you get stuck. A smallhand-brush for sweeping snow off the windscreen and rear window is also useful. D190A01HR-GAT (If Installed) A locking differential, if equipped, is for the rear wheel differential only. Thefeatures of this locking differential are described below: Just as with a conventional differential,the wheel on one side is allowed to turn at a different speed from the wheel on the other side when the vehicle iscornering. The difference between the locking differential and a conventional differential is that if the wheel on oneside of the vehicle loses traction, a greater amount of torque is applied to the rear wheel on the other side toimprove traction. NOTE: In a stationary position, the LD (Locking Differential) will operate when the difference of the revolu- tion speed between the rear rightwheel and the rear left wheel oc- curs.
CAUTION:(If installed)
White smoke may arise from thefuel fired heater outlet in the driver's front wheel housing during winterdriving. This is a normal condition. But, If a black (or gray) smoke is generated heavily, have the fuel firedheater checked by your Hyundai dealer. If the engine stops while the fuelfired heater is operating, whizzing noise may be heard from the lower of the battery in the engine com- partment. This is due to cleaning process forfuel fired heater and a normal op- eration. It will takes about 1- 3 minutes ac-cording to fuel quantity in the fuel fired heater fuel line.

CAUTION:
o Never start the engine with the gearshift lever placed in the for- ward or reverse while one of the rear wheels is jacked up and theother in contact with the ground; doing so may cause the vehicle to jump forward.
o If one of the rear wheels begins to spin in mud, snow, etc., thevehicle can sometimes be drivenout by depressing the accelera- tor pedal further; however, avoid running the engine continuouslyat high rpm because doing so could damage the locking differ- ential.
!
The following procedures can be used to confirm that the locking differentialis functioning properly:
(1) Position the vehicle so that one
wheel is on a dry paved surface and the other on ice, snow, mud, etc. Drive the vehicle, and observe theoperation of the locking differential. The vehicle should not become stuck if the differential is function-ing properly.
(2) Depress the accelerator pedal
gradually, and then when traction isgood, depress it forcefully. If the vehicle accelerates well, the differ- ential is functioning properly.

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.
