STEERING WHEEL LOCK
When the ignition key is removed, the steering
wheel lock will be activated. The lock only engages at one position of the steering wheeland therefore it will be possible to turn the wheeluntil this position is reached. It is not, however,necessary for the lock to be engaged beforeleaving the vehicle since in the event of at-tempted unauthorized removal, the lock willengage when attempts are made to steer thevehicle.
Should it be difficult to turn the key from the
"LOCK" position, it may be found that rockingthe steering wheel to and fro whilst turning thekey will assist.
CAUTION: Never remove the key from the ignition lock
whilst the vehicle is in motion since the steering mechanism lock will be activated.
"START"
The engine is started in this position. It will
crank until you release the key.
NOTE: Do not hold the key in the "START" position
for more than 15 seconds. "ON"
When the key is at the "ON" position, the
ignition and all accessories are available for use. If the engine is not running, the key shouldnot be left at this position since the battery willbecome discharged and damage to the ignitionsystem may also result. For information regard-ing engine starting, refer to "STARTING THEENGINE". "ACC"
When the ignition key is at the "ACC" position,
the radio and other accessories may be used."LOCK"
The ignition key may only be inserted or re-
moved at this position.

CAUTION: Do not select 4WD (4H or 4L) mode on dry
paved roads. Especially on dry highway, never select the 4WD mode. Four-wheel driving on dry paved roads for a
long period will increase the fuel consump-tion with possible noise generation and ear-ly tyre wear. In addition, axle gear oil tem-perature increases with possible driving sys-tem part wear. D090E01HP-EAT
Driving Four-wheel drive safely
o The driving posture should be more upright; adjust the seat to a good position for easy steering and pedal operation.
o Be sure to wear the seat belt.
o Drive carefully when off the road and avoid dangerous areas.
o 4WD has higher ground clearance and a narrower track to make them capable of performing in a wide variety of off roadapplications. Specific design characteristicsgive them a higher centre of gravity thanordinary cars. An advantage of the higherground clearance is a better view of the roadallowing you to anticipate problems. Theyare not designed for cornering at the samespeeds as conventional 2-wheel drive vehi-cles any more than low-slung sports carsare designed to perform satisfactorily underoff-road conditions. If at all possible, avoidsharp turns or abrupt maneuvers. As withother vehicles of this type, failure to operatethis vehicle correctly may result in loss ofcontrol or vehicle rollover.
o Do not grip the inside or spokes of the steering wheel when driving off-road. Thesteering wheel could jerk and injure yourhands. Always firmly hold the outer steeringwheel when you are driving off-road.
o Drive at lower speeds in strong crosswinds. Because of your vehicle’s high centre ofgravity, its stability will be affected in cross-winds. Slower speeds ensure better vehiclecontrol.

DRIVING YOUR HYUNDAI 2- 11
o Check your brake condition once you are
out of mud or water. Press the brake several times as you move slowly until your feelnormal braking forces return.
o Four-wheel driving on flat and normal roads can result in a severe binding conditionwhen turning the steering wheel.
Driving on dry paved road and high- way Select the 2H(2WD) to drive on dry paved roads. Especially on dry highway, never selectthe 4H or 4L(4WD).
Driving on snowy or icy roads Select the 4H or 4L in accordance with the roadconditions, and then gradually depress the ac-celerator pedal for a smooth start.
Driving on sandy or muddy roads Select the 4H or 4L and then gradually depressthe accelerator pedal for a smooth start. Keepthe pressure on the accelerator pedal constantas possible, and drive at low speed.
Climbing sharp grades Select the 4L to maximize use the engine torque.
Descending sharp grades Select the 4L, use the engine brake and de-scend slowly. Driving in Water
Select the 4L mode and drive through slowly. The maximum advisable wading depth is ap- proximately 15.7 in.(40 cm). Before driving through water, such as when crossing shallow streams, first check the depthof the water and the bottom of the river bed forfirmness. Drive slowly at the speed of 3mph(5 km/h) and avoid deep water. Take all necessary safety measures to ensure that water damage to the engine or other ve-hicle parts does not occur. Water entering the engine air intake will cause severe engine damage. Water can wash the grease from wheel bear- ings, causing rusting and premature failure, andmay also enter the axles, transmission andtransfer case, reducing the gear oil's lubricatingqualities.

LIMITED-SLIP DIFFERENTIAL (Not all models)
A limited-slip differential, if equipped, is for the
rear wheel differential only. The features of this limited-slip differential are described below:
Just as with a conventional differential, the
wheel on one side is allowed to turn at adifferent speed from the wheel on the other sidewhen the vehicle is cornering. The differencebetween the limited-slip differential and a con-ventional differential is that if the wheel on oneside of the vehicle loses traction, a greateramount of torque is applied to the rear wheel onthe other side to improve traction.

EFFECTIVE BRAKING Braking system performance and friction mate-rial life are greatly affected by the driving styleadopted. The following suggestions are madeto assist in achieving the best results from thebraking system.
o Anticipate the road and conditions ahead in order that heavy braking may be avoided.
o When descending long gradients, use the engine to assist in retarding the vehicle tominimize the possibility of brake fade occur-ring. o When trailer towing, ensure that the trailer
brakes function correctly and use enginebraking to assist the vehicle braking system.
o Use only genuine Hyundai replacement brake pads and shoes to ensure consistentfriction characteristics and wear rates.
o After driving through deep water (e.g. fording), the brakes may become wet andperformance reduced. Always check brakeefficiency after emerging from the water anddry the brakes by lightly depressing thebrake pedal several times whilst driving slow-ly.
o Apply the parking brake only when the vehi- cle is at rest.
o Since the power assistance provided by the brake servo is derived from the engine,coasting with the engine turned off or towingof the vehicle with the engine turned off willresult in greatly increased pedal pressuresbeing required to stop the vehicle.
o Do not hold the vehicle on the upgrade with the accelerator pedal. This can cause thetransmission to overheat. Always use thebrake pedal or parking brake.
CAUTION:
o Whilst the full-time 4WD vehicle is being raised on a jack, never start the engine orcause the tyres to rotate. There is the danger that rotating tyres touching the ground could cause thevehicle to go off the jack and to jumpforward.
o If one of the front or rear wheels begins to spin in mud, snow, etc., the vehiclecan sometimes be driven out by depress-ing the accelerator pedal further; how-ever, avoid running the engine continu-ously at high rpm because doing so coulddamage the 4WD system.
WARNING:
o Avoid high cornering speeds.
o Do not make quick steering wheel move- ments, such as sharp lane charges or fast, sharp turns.
o The risk of rollover is greatly increased if you lose control of your vehicle at high-way speeds.
o In a collision crash, an unbelted person is significantly more likely to die than aperson wearing a seatbelt.
o Loss of control often occurs if two or more wheels drop off the roadway and thedriver oversteers to reenter the roadway.
o In the event your vehicle leaves the road- way, do not steer sharply. Instead, slowdown before pulling back into the travellanes.
