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

HPC120D1-E General Operating Instructions
o The button in the selector handle must be depressed before the selector can be moved.
o The engine may only be started when the selector is at position "P" or "N".
o Ensure that the footbrake is firmly applied when shifting from "P" or "N" to "D", "2" or "L" and vice versa.
o Always engage the parking brake when the vehicle is unattended, never use the "P"position in place of the parking brake.
o Under normal circumstances, the selector should be placed in the "D" position and thetransmission allowed to select the most idealratio for the circumstances. In this positionmaximum fuel economy will be achieved.
o When descending steep gradients where engine braking is required, the selectorshould be placed at the "2" or "L" positiondepending upon the vehicle speed.
o When ascending steep gradients and using large throttle openings, the transmission mayrepeatedly change between two adjacentratios. This is a normal characteristic andmay be prevented by selecting "2" or "L"depending upon the vehicle speed.
o Never move the selector to or from the "P" or "N" position with the accelerator de-pressed.
o Only with the brake pedal fully depressed, the shift lever is shifted from "P" (parking)position to other position. (Not all models)
C090I01E-EAT
CAUTION:
o Shift into "R" and "P" only when the vehicle has completely stopped.
o Do not accelerate the engine in reverse or any of the forward positions with the brakes applied.
o Always apply the footbrake when shift- ing from "P" or "N", to "R", "D", "2" or"L" position.
o Do not use the "P" (Park) position in place of the parking brake. Always setthe parking brake, shift the transmissioninto "P" (Park) and turn off the ignitionwhen you leave the vehicle, even mo-mentarily. Never leave the vehicle unat-tended whilst the engine is running.
o Check the automatic transmission fluid level regularly, and add fluid as neces-sary. SC130A1-E OVERDRIVE SWITCH
The overdrive switch prevents the transmission upshifting higher than third gear when the switchis turned "OFF". The transmission will startfrom rest in first gear and upshift to second andthird gear depending upon the roadspeed andthrottle opening but will not upshift to fourthgear. When the overdrive switch is turned "ON",the transmission will start from rest in first gearand will upshift, depending upon roadspeed andthrottle opening to second, third and fourthgear. Therefore, when the overdrive switch isturned "OFF", the transmission performs as athree speed unit and the overdrive warning lightlocated in the instrument cluster will be illumi-nated. When the overdrive switch is turned"ON", the transmission functions as a fullyautomatic four speed unit with the maximumfuel economy potential of the vehicle beingrealized.
C090J01HP.DAG
DRIVING YOUR HYUNDAI 2- 9
o Ensure that the overdrive switch is at the
"ON" position for maximum economy.
o If rapid acceleration is required, fully de- press the accelerator pedal. In this condi- tion, the kickdown mechanism will be oper-ated and the transmission will automaticallydownshift according to the vehicle speed.
C120A02A-EAT
ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM (Not all models)
The Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) is designed
to prevent wheel lock-up during sudden braking or on hazardous road surfaces. The ABS con-trol module monitors the wheel speed and con-trols the pressure applied to each brake. Thus,in emergency situations or on slick roads, ABSwill increase vehicle control during braking.
NOTE: During ABS operation, a slight pulsation
may be felt in the brake pedal when the brakes are applied. Also, a noise may beheard in the engine compartment whilst brak-ing. These conditions are normal and indi-cate that the anti-lock brake system is func-tioning properly. WARNING: ABS will not prevent accidents due to im-
proper or dangerous driving manoeuvres. Even though vehicle control is improvedduring emergency braking, always maintaina safe distance between you and objectsahead. Vehicle speeds should always bereduced during extreme road conditions.
The braking distance for cars equipped with
an anti-lock braking system may be longerthan for those without it in the followingroad conditions.
o Driving on rough, gravel or snow-cov- ered roads.
o Driving with tire chains installed.
o Driving on roads where the road surface is pitted or has different surface height.
These roads should be driven at reduced
speeds. The safety features of an ABS equipped vehicle should not be tested byhigh speed driving or cornering. This couldendanger the safety of yourself or others.

FOUR-WHEEL DRIVE (4WD)
You can send your engine power to all front and
rear wheels for maximum power. 4WD is useful when you drive in snow, mud, ice, mountainousor sandy areas where good traction is required,or when your wheels lose traction using two-wheel drive.
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.
