DRIVING YOUR HYUNDAI 2- 11
1. Knob position This is used to set different positions. AUTO Mode Full power delivered to front and rear axles for increase traction. Use this mode for normal on- road operating conditions such as dry road sur- faces, wet pavement, snow-covered roads and/ or off-road. LOW Mode Full power to both axles, including a lower gear ratio for low-speed applications that require extra power such as dry road surfaces, wet pavement, snow-covered roads and/or off-road. Especially when increased drive power is re- quired. "LOW" mode is not recommended on dry pave- ment. The 4WD LOW indicator light ( ) will be tur- ned on to remind you that you are in the LOW mode. 2. Transfer shift knob operation AUTO

(1) Be sure to wear the seat belt.
(2) Drive at lower speeds in strong crosswinds. Because of your vehicle’s high center of gravity, its stability will be affected in cross- winds. Slower speeds ensure better vehicle control.
(3) Check the brake condition after driving in wet or muddy conditions. Press the brakeseveral times as you move slowly until you feel normal braking forces return.
(4) Do not drive the vehicle through water. (i.e. streams, rivers, lakes, etc.)
(5) The stopping distance of the full-time 4WD vehicle differs very little from that of the 2WD vehicle.
When driving on a snow-covered road or a slippery, muddy surface, make sure thatyou keep a sufficient distance between your vehicle and the one ahead of you.
(6) Since the driving torque is always applied to
the 4 wheels, the performance of the full- time 4WD vehicle is greatly affected by the condition of the tires. Be sure to equip it with all four tires of the same size and type.o When replacement of any of the tires ordisc wheels is necessary, replace all of them.
o Rotate the tires and check the tire pres- sure at regular intervals.
(7) The full-time 4WD vehicle cannot be towed by an ordinary tow truck. Makesure that the vehicle is towed with its four wheels raised off the ground.
o If the vehicle is towed with its only two wheels raised off the ground, the 4WDsystem could be damaged.
o In unavoidable case, if the vehicle is being towed with all four wheels on theground, it should be towed only forward direction with rope.
o While towing, check the following items. 1. The ignition switch is in "ACC" or"ON".
2. Place the shift lever in neutral (For Automatic Transmission, "N" posi-tion).
3. Release the parking brake.
NOTE: To avoid serious damage to your 4WD ve- hicle, limit towing to 15km/h (10 mph) and not for more than 1.5km (1 mile) at ANY TIME.
DRIVING YOUR HYUNDAI 2- 15
C160C01A-AAT Use High Quality Ethylene Glycol Coolant Your Hyundai is delivered with high quality ethyl- ene glycol coolant in the cooling system. It is the only type of coolant that should be used because it helps prevent corrosion in the cooling system, lubricates the water pump and prevents freezing. Be sure to replace or replenish your coolant in accordance with the maintenance schedule in Section 5. Before winter, have your coolant test- ed to assure that its freezing point is sufficient for the temperatures anticipated during the winter. C160D01A-AAT Check Battery and Cables Winter puts additional burdens on the battery system. Visually inspect the battery and cables as described in Section 6. The level of charge in your battery can be checked by your Hyundai dealer or a service station. C160E01A-AAT Change to "Winter Weight" Oil if Necessary In some climates it is recommended that a lower viscosity "winter weight" oil be used during cold weather. See Section 9 for recommendations. If you aren’t sure what weight oil you should use, consult your Hyundai dealer.
o Remember, your Hyundai does not require
extended warm-up. As soon as the engine is running smoothly, you can drive away. In very cold weather, however, give your engine a slightly longer warm-up period.
o Don't "lug" or "over-rev" the engine. Lugging is driving too slowly in too high a gear result- ing in the engine bucking. If this happens, shift to a lower gear. Over-revving is racing the engine beyond its safe limit. This can be avoided by shifting at the recommended speeds.
o Use your air conditioning sparingly. The air
conditioning system is operated by engine power so your fuel economy is reduced when you use it.
C160A01A-AAT WINTER DRIVING The more severe weather conditions of winter result in greater wear and other problems. To minimize the problems of winter driving, you should follow these suggestions:
C150A01A-AAT SMOOTH CORNERING Avoid braking or gear changing in corners, espe- cially when roads are wet. Ideally, corners should always be taken under gentle acceleration. If you follow these suggestions, tire wear will be held to a minimum. C160B01A-GAT Snowy or Icy Conditions To drive your vehicle in deep snow, it may be necessary to use snow tires or to install tire chains on your tires. If snow tires are needed, it is necessary to select tires equivalent in size and type of the original equipment tires. Failure to do so may adversely affect the safety and handling of your car. Furthermore, speeding, rapid accel- eration, sudden brake applications, and sharp turns are potentially very hazardous practices. During deceleration, use engine braking to the fullest extent. Sudden brake applications on snowy or icy roads may cause skids to occur. You need to keep sufficient distance between the vehicle in operation in front and your vehicle. Also, apply the brake gently. It should be noted that installing tire chains on the tire will provide a greater driving force, but will not prevent side skids. NOTE: Tire chains are not legal in all provinces. Check province laws before fitting tire chains.
WHAT TO DO IN AN EMERGENCY 3-3
WARNING: While the engine is running, keep hands and clothing away from moving parts such as the fan and drive belts to prevent injury. WARNING (Diesel only): Never work on injection system with engine running or within 30 seconds after shutting off engine. High pressure pump, rail, injec- tors and high pressure pipes are subject to high pressure even after the engine stopped. The fuel jet produced by fuel leaks may cause serious injury, if it touch the body. People using pacemakers should not move than 30cm closer to the ECU or wiring harness within the engine room while engine is running, since the high currents in the Common Rail system produce considerable magnetic fields.
5. If the water pump drive belt is broken or
coolant is leaking out, stop the engine im- mediately and call the nearest Hyundai deal- er for assistance.
WARNING: Do not remove the radiator cap when the engine is hot. This can allow coolant to be blown out of the opening and cause serious burns. D040A01HP-GAT SPARE TIREThe following instructions for the FULL SIZE spare tire should be observed: Check inflation pressure as soon as possible after installing the spare tire, and adjust to the specified pressure. The tire pressure should be periodically checked and maintained at the spec- ified pressure while the tire is stored.

6. If you cannot find the cause of the overheat-
ing, wait until the engine temperature has returned to normal. Then, if coolant has been lost, carefully add coolant to the reservoir (Page 6-8) to bring the fluid level in the reser- voir up to the halfway mark.
7. Proceed with caution, keeping alert for fur-
ther signs of overheating. If overheating hap- pens again, call a Hyundai dealer for assis- tance.
CAUTION: Serious loss of coolant indicates there is a leak in the cooling system and this should be checked as soon as possible by a Hyundai dealer.

SNOW TIRES If you equip your car with snow tires, they should be the same size and have the same load capacity as the original tires. Snow tires should be installed on all four wheels; other- wise, poor handling may result. Snow tires should carry 28 kPa (4 psi) more air pressure than the pressure recommended for the standard tires on the tire label on the driver's door edge, or up to the maximum pressure shown on the tire sidewall whichever is less. Do not drive faster than 120 km/h (75 mph)when your car is equipped with snow tires. I050A01HP-AAT
TIRE CHAINS Tire chains should be installed on the rear wheels. Be sure that the chains are installed in accordance with the manufacturer's instruc- tions. To minimize tire and chain wear, do not con-tinue to use tire chains when they are no longer needed. WARNING: When driving on roads covered with snow or ice, drive at less than 30 km/h (20 mph). Tires should be rotated every 5,000 km (3,000
miles). If you notice that tires are wearing un- evenly between rotations, have the car checked by a Hyundai dealer so the cause may be corrected.After rotating, adjust the tire pressures and be sure to check wheel nut torque. WARNING: Do not mix bias-ply and radial-ply tires un-
der any circumstances. This may cause dan- gerous handling characteristics that may
cause death, serious injury, or property dam- age.
o Lower-than-recommended tire pressures
cause uneven tread wear and poor han-dling.
o Higher-than-recommended tire pressures
increase the chance of damage from im-pacts and cause uneven tread wear.
CAUTION: Always observe the following:
o Check pressures when the tires are cold. That is, after the car has been parked for at least three hours and hasn't been driven more than 1.6 km or one mile since starting up.
o Check the pressure of your spare tire each time you check the pressure of other tires.
o Never overload your car. Be especially careful about overloading if you equipyour car with a luggage rack or car top carrier.

I070A01A-AAT TIRE BALANCINGA tire that is out of balance may affect handling and tire wear. The tires on your Hyundai were balanced before the car was delivered but may need balancing again during the years you own the car. Whenever a tire is dismounted for repair, it should be rebalanced before being reinstalledon the car.
I100A01HP-AAT SPARE TIRE AND TOOLS Your Hyundai is delivered with the following: Spare tire and wheel WrenchJackJack handle (Spare Wheel Rod)
I080A01A-AAT TIRE TRACTIONTire traction can be reduced if you drive on worn tires, tires that are improperly inflated or on slippery road surfaces. Tires should be re- placed when tread wear indicators appear. To reduce the possibility of losing control, slow down whenever there is rain, snow or ice on the road. I090A01Y-GAT
WHEN TO REPLACE TIRES
The original tires on your car have tread wearindicators. The tread wear indicators appear when the tread depth is 1.6 mm (0.06 in.). The tire should be replaced when these appear as asolid bar across two or more grooves of the tread. Always replace your tires with those of the recommended size. If you change wheels, the new wheel's rim width and offset must meet Hyundai specifications. WARNING:
o Driving on worn-out tires is dangerous! Worn-out tires can cause loss of braking effectiveness, steering control and trac- tion. When replacing tires, never mix ra- dial and bias-ply tires on the same car. If
you replace radial tires with bias-ply tires, they must be installed in sets of four.
