HTB206 CAUTION:
o Do not attempt to engage reverse gear when the car is in motion.
o To avoid damaging the selector mechanism, do not use the gear shift lever as a hand rest. Releasethe lever immediately the shift iscompleted.
o To avoid premature clutch wear,
do not use the clutch pedal as afoot rest, and do not hold thevehicle on a gradient using theclutch.
o Ensure that the engine is not over-revved by upshifting beforethe tachometer needle enters thered zone.
o Do not coast with the shift lever at the neutral position.
o When descending long gradi- ents, make use of the engine brak-ing to assist the footbrake toavoid brake fade or over-heating.
o When slippery conditions are en- countered, increased cautionshould be exercised when gear changing, braking or accelerat-

It is importantthat when changing gear, the clutchpedal is fully depressed to avoidtransaxle damage. ing. Abrupt changes in speedmay cause a loss of traction orcontrol of the vehicle.
o During cold weather, shifting may be difficult until the transaxle lu-bricant has warmed up. This isnormal and not harmful to thetransaxle.
o If you 've come to a complete
stop and it's hard to shift into 1st or R(Reverse), put the shift lever in N(Neutral) position and releasethe clutch. Press the clutch pedalback down, and then shift into1st or R(Reverse) gear position.
o Do not use the shift lever as a handrest during driving, as thiscan result in premature wear ofthe transaxle shift forks.
o Always ensure that the periodic
maintenance services are performedby a Hyundai authorised repairer atthe time and/or mileage intervalsspecified.
o Use the air conditioning only when
necessary.

C090I02A-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 shifting from "P" or "N", to "R", "D", "2" or "L" position.
o Do not use the "P" (Park) posi- tion in place of the parking brake. Always set the parking brake,shift the transaxle into "P" (Park)and turn off the ignition when you leave the vehicle, even mo- mentarily. Never leave the vehicleunattended whilst the engine isrunning.
o Check the automatic transaxle fluid level regularly, and add fluid as necessary. See the maintenance schedulefor the proper fluid recommen-dation. FC120D1-E General Operating Instructions
o The button in the selector handle
must be depressed before the se- lector 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", "L" or "R" and viceversa.
o Always engage the parking brake when the vehicle is unattended,never use the "P" position in place ofthe parking brake.
o Under normal circumstances, the selector should be placed in the "D"position and the transaxle allowed to select the most ideal ratio for the circumstances. In this position maxi-mum fuel economy will be achieved.
o When descending steep gradients where engine braking is required,the selector should be placed at the "2" or "L" position depending upon the vehicle speed.

o Keep your car in good condition. For
better fuel economy and reduced maintenance costs, maintain yourcar in accordance with the mainte-nance schedule in Section 5. If you drive your car in severe conditions, more frequent maintenance is re-quired (see Section 5 for details).
o Keep your car clean. For maximum service, your car should be keptclean and free of corrosive materi- als. It is especially important that mud, dirt, ice, etc. not be allowed toaccumulate on the underside of thecar. This extra weight can result inincreased fuel consumption and alsocontribute to corrosion.
o Travel lightly. Don't carry unneces-
sary weight in your car. Weight is anenemy of good fuel economy.
o Don't let the engine idle longer than necessary. If you are waiting (andnot in traffic), turn off your engine and restart only when you're ready to go.
o Remember, your car does not re-
quire extended warm-up. As soonas 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 toohigh a gear resulting in the enginebucking. If this happens to you, shiftto a lower gear. Over-revving is racing the engine beyond its safe limit. This can beavoided by shifting at the recom-mended speeds.
o Use your air conditioning sparingly.
The air conditioning system is oper- ated by the engine power so your fuel economy is reduced when youuse it.
SC160A1-F SMOOTH CORNERING Avoid braking or gear changing in cor- ners, especially when roads are wet.Ideally, corners should always be takenunder gentle acceleration. If you followthese suggestions, tyre wear will beheld to a minimum. SC170A1-E WINTER MOTORING The onset of winter conditions subject motor vehicles to greater operatingdemands. Therefore, the followingsuggestions will assist in maintainingpeak performance and reliability dur- ing these periods: ZC170B1-E Electrical System Winter conditions impose severe de- mands upon vehicle electrical systems, particularly the charging circuit. The battery condition and performancealong with the alternator performanceand drive belt condition should bechecked prior to the onset of winter.

4- 2 CORROSION PREVENTION AND APPEARANCE CARE
SE020A1-E PROTECTING YOUR HYUNDAI FROM CORROSION By using the most advanced design and construction practices, every Hyundai is built to retain the originalfactory finish for many years. How- ever, long term durability is also greatly dependant upon maintaining the vari-ous protection systems and coatings used in manufacture since constant, exposure to the elements will result ina breakdown and loss of effective- ness. The following suggestions are made to assist in the maintenance ofthe vehicle bodywork. SE030A1-E UNDERBODY COATINGS Every Hyundai passenger car receives a full underbody and cavity injectiontreatment during production. In order that this treatment may retain maxi- mum effectiveness it is recommendedthat the underbody receives a power wash and a thorough inspection after each winter season. In doing so anyaccumulations of mud, which act as moisture traps and combine with road salts to accelerate corrosion will beremoved. In order to maintain the Anti Perforation Warranty, the requirements regarding the retreatment programmemust be observed in accordance with the Terms and Conditions outlined in the separate Anti Perforation WarrantyBooklet. NOTE: The underbody should never be steam cleaned since the underbodycoating may be removed by this process. During the interim period betweenpower washing the underbody, the more vulnerable areas such as wheel arches should be hosed off particularly during the winter sea- son to prevent prolonged contact with road salts.Ensure that the various drain points located at the bottom of the door panels and sills are kept clear toprevent water from becoming trapped within the cavities. Wher- ever possible, the parking of thevehicle in a confined, poorly venti- lated location (a garage for example) should be avoided when the ve-hicle is wet or is covered with snow or ice. Under these conditions, the internal cavities of the vehicle willremain damp for prolonged peri- ods of time which will encourage corrosion. Parking the vehiclewhere good ventilation exists (out- side for example) is preferable.

4- 4 CORROSION PREVENTION AND APPEARANCE CARE
SE040E1-E BUMPER MAINTENANCE The special material from which the bumpers are manufactured warrantsspecial attention to preserve the ap- pearance of the bumpers. Avoid con- tact with battery electrolyte or brakefluid and ensure that accidental spill- ages are immediately flushed with water.Do not use abrasive cleaning materi- als which may damage the bumpers. Avoid subjecting the bumpers to hightemperatures such as may be encoun- tered in high bake paint ovens.
SE040F1-E ACCIDENT REPAIRERS In the event of the body work sustain- ing damage, the following points should be noted prior to repairers being un- dertaken.If body panels are replaced or repairered, anti corrosion treatment must be applied to the repairer area.The product used must be compatible with those used in manufacture. It is recommended that repairers are en-trusted to a Hyundai authorised re- pairer to ensure that replacement parts used are of the same high quality as those used in manufacture of the ve-hicle and that the correct repairer meth- ods and materials will ensure adequate levels of corrosion protection and thecontinued validity of the Anti Perfora- tion Warranty. SE050A1-E INTERIOR During the winter period, it is possible that the passenger compartment floor- ing may become wet from damp foot- wear or quantities of snow adhering tofootwear. The carpet should not be allowed to remain in this condition since the carpet may begin to create mustysmells and will promote corrosion of the floor pan in addition to the carpet and under felt beginning to rot.
SE050C1-E INTERIOR VALETING The soft trim and carpets should be maintained with the regular use of avacuum cleaner. Heavy soiling should be removed with a dry cleaning agent recommended for this purpose follow-ing the instructions of the product manufacturer. Paint thinner, solvents or other such cleaning materials shouldnot be used since damage to the up- holstery may result. SE050D1-E SEAT BELTS Seat belts should be cleaned only with a mild soap solution. Strong deter- gents, solvens or bleaches may dam- age the belt webbing and thereforereduce the effectiveness of the belt. Belts which display signs of fraying, wear of cut should be replaced.

5- 2 VEHICLE MAINTENANCE REQUIREMENTS
SF020A1-E MAINTENANCE AND SERVICING REQUIREMENTS To ensure the continued reliability and safety of the vehicle, certain routinemaintenance operations are required at specific mileage or time intervals. It is the responsibility of the vehicle owner to ensure that the maintenance schedules shown in both this OwnersManual and the Warranty and Service Passport are adhered to. The new vehicle warranty may be invalidated if the routine maintenance operations are not performed in line with the recommendations outlinedand the safety and durability of the vehicle adversely affected. It is recommended that all mainte- nance operations with the exception of the daily operating checks are en-trusted to a Hyundai authorised re- pairer to ensure that the latest repairer and maintenance procedures and spe-cialized servicing tools are employed. In addition, the use of genuine Hyundai replacement parts will ensure that thevehicle safety and performance will not be compromised. NOTE:
The inspection and testing of cer-
tain electronic fuel injection/engine management and automatic trans- mission control systems require specialised electronic equipmentspecifically designed for Hyundai vehicles. The use of general pur- pose electrical test equipment mayresult in damage to the control unit microprocessors.
SF020C2-E
Specified Scheduled Procedures
The Specified scheduled procedures
are listed in the maintenance charts beginning at page 5-3. The opera- tions specified must be performed at the time or mileage intervals shownirrespective of whether the mileage interval has been reached before the specified time interval. Certain lubricants and components
degrade with both time and mileage(e.g. engine oil and brake fluid) and therefore it is not permissable to base the maintenance schedule upon mile-age alone. It is strongly recommended that the maintenance operations are performed by the factory-trained ordistributor-trained technicians at your Hyundai authorised repairer becauseof the need for specialized knowledge and tooling and to ensure that no possibility of invalidating the manufac-turers warranty exists.
The maintenance schedules relate to
vehicles operated under normal con- ditions, vehicles which are operated under adverse conditions will requiremore frequent maintenance which is described at page 5-6. NOTE:
Service schedules may change de-
pending on individual country needs. Please ask your localHyundai authorised repairer for a copy of the service schedule that relates to that country.
