DRIVING YOUR HYUNDAI 2- 13
C130A01HP-GAT GOOD BRAKING PRACTICES WARNING: Nothing should be carried on top of the cargo area cover behind the rear seat. If there were an accident or a sudden stop, such objects could move forward and cause damage to the vehicle or injure the occupants.
o After being parked, check to be sure the
parking brake is not engaged and that the parking brake indicator light is out before driving away.
o Driving through water may get the brakes
wet. They can also get wet when the car is washed. Wet brakes can be dangerous! Your car will not stop as quickly if the brakes are wet. Wet brakes cause the car to pull to one side. To dry the brakes, apply the brakes lightly until the braking action returns to nor- mal, taking care to keep the car under control at all times. If the braking action does not return to normal, stop as soon as it is safe to do so and call your Hyundai dealer for assis- tance.
o Don’t coast down hills with the car out of gear.
This is extremely hazardous. Keep the car in gear at all times, use the brakes to slow down, then shift to a lower gear so that engine braking will help you maintain a safe speed.
D190A01O-GATLIMITED-SLIP DIFFERENTIAL (If installed) 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 a different speed from the wheel on the other side when the vehicle is cornering. The difference between the limited- slip differential and a conventional differential is that if the wheel on one side of the vehicle loses traction, a greater amount of torque is applied to the rear wheel on the other side to improve traction.
Water entering the engine air intake will causesevere engine damage. Water can wash the grease from wheel bearings, causing rusting and premature failure, and may also enter the axles, transmission and transfer case, reducing the gear oil's lubricating qualities. CAUTION:
o While the full-time 4WD vehicle is being
raised on a jack, never start the engine orcause the tires to rotate. There is the danger that rotating tires touching the ground could cause the ve- hicle to go off the jack and to jump for- ward.
o If one of the front or rear wheels begins to spin in mud, snow, etc., the vehicle can sometimes be driven out by depressing the accelerator pedal further; however, avoid running the engine continuously at high rpm because doing so could damage 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 a per- son wear a seatbelt. o Loss of control often occurs if two or more
wheels drop off the roadway and the driver oversteers to reenter the roadway.
o In the event your vehicle leaves the road- way, do not steer sharply. Instead, slow down before pulling back into the travel lanes.

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.
