DRIVING YOUR HYUNDAI

o Ensure that the engine is not over-revved
by upshifting before the tachometer needle enters the red zone.
o Do not coast with the shift lever at the neutral position.
o When descending long gradients, make use of the engine braking to assist thefootbrake to avoid brake fade or over-heating.
o When slippery conditions are encoun- tered, increased caution should be exer-cised when gear changing, braking oraccelerating. Abrupt changes in speedmay cause a loss of traction or control ofthe vehicle.
o During cold weather, shifting may be dif- ficult until the transmission lubricant haswarmed up. This is normal and not harm-ful to the transmission.
o If you've come to a complete stop and it's hard to shift into 1 st
or R(Reverse), put
the shift lever in N(Neutral) position andrelease the clutch. Press the clutch pedalback down, and then shift into 1 st
or
R(Reverse) gear position.
o Do not use the shift lever as a handrest during driving, as this can result in pre-mature wear of the transmission shiftforks. C070B01A-EAT
Using the Clutch
The clutch should be pressed all the way to the
floor before shifting, then released slowly. Theclutch pedal should aways be used after fullyreturning to the original position. Do not restyour foot on the clutch pedal whilst driving. Thiscan cause unnecessary wear.
Do not partially engage the clutch to hold the
car on an incline. This causes unnecessarywear. Use the parking brake to hold the car onan incline. Do not operate the clutch pedalrapidly and repeatedly.
The shift points as shown above are recom-
mended for optimum fuel economy and per-formance. C070E03A-EAT

1. Adjust headlights so that main axis of light is parallel to centre line of the body and isaligned with point "P" shown in the illustra-tion.
2. Dotted lines in the illustration show the cen- tre of headlights. "H" Horizontal centre line of headlights from ground : Low Beam : 35.1 in. (894 mm)High Beam : 33 in.

6. Draw the vertical line (through the centre of
each headlight) and the horizontal line (through the centre of each headlight) on theaiming screen.
(1) Horizontal line dimension from ground :
Low Beam : 35.1 in.(894 mm)
High Beam : 33 in. (839 mm)
(2) Distance between each vertical line : Low Beam : 51.8 in. (1,316 mm)
High Beam : 42.4 in. (1,076 mm)
And then, draw a parallel line at 1.50 in. (38
mm) under the horizontal line in case of adjust- ing the low beam or at 0.83 in. (21 mm) underthe horizontal line in case of adjusting the highbeam.
7. Adjust each cut-off line of the low beam to the parallel line with a phillips screwdriver - VERTICAL AIMING.
8. Adjust each cut-off line of the low beam to the each vertical line with a phillips screw-driver - HORIZONTAL AIMING.
