19BRAKE SYSTEM
D150A01P-GAT All the parts of the brake system are critical to safety. Have the vehicle ser- viced by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer at regular intervals according tothe service standards.
(1) The service brake is divided into two brake circuits so that when one brake circuit fails, the other is avail- able to stop the vehicle. If this oc-curs, however, the brake pedal must be depressed further than usual; stop driving as soon as possibleand have the brake system ser- viced at the nearest authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
(2) Do not place a thick floor mat around the brake pedal; doing so couldprevent the full pedal stroke thatwould be necessary in an emer- gency. Make sure that the pedal can be operated freely at all times.
(3) If the vehicle is equipped with a brake warning lamp, the lamp willlight up if the brake fluid level isabnormally low.
o Do not grip the inside or spokes of
the steering wheel when driving off-road. The steering wheel could jerk and injure your hands. Always firmly hold the outer steering wheel whenyou are driving off-road.
o Drive at lower speeds in strong
crosswinds. Because of yourvehicle’s high center of gravity, its stability will be affected in cross- winds. Slower speeds ensure bettervehicle control.
o Whenever you drive off-road through
sand, mud or water as deep as thewheel hub, more frequent mainte- nance may be required.
o Do not drive in water if the level is higher than the bottom of the wheelhubs.
o Check your brake condition once you are out of mud or water. Pressthe brake several times as you move slowly until your feel normal brakingforces return.
o Four-wheel driving on flat and nor-
mal roads can result in a severebinding condition when turning the steering wheel. Driving on dry paved road and highway Select 2H(2WD) to drive on dry paved roads. Especially on dry highway, neverselect the 4H or 4L(4WD). Driving on snowy or icy roads Select the 4H or 4L in accordance with the road conditions, and then gradu- ally depress the accelerator pedal for a smooth start. Driving on sandy or muddy roads Select the 4H or 4L and then gradually depress the accelerator pedal for a smooth start. Keep the pressure on the accelerator pedal constant as pos-sible, and drive at low speed. Climbing sharp grades Select the 4L to maximize use the engine torque. Descending sharp grades Select 4L, use the engine brake and descend slowly.

(4) If the vehicle is equipped with a
brake booster, the brake boosting force is lost after the brake pedal is depressed once or twice while the engine is off. If this occurs, thebrake will require greater force than usual. This is especially important whenthe vehicle is being towed. A film of water can form on thebrake discs or brake drums andprevent normal functioning after driving in heavy rain or through large puddles, or after the vehicle iswashed. If this occurs, repeatedly tap the brake pedal lightly while driving to dry out the brakes.
(6) It is important to take advantage of the braking power of the engine byshifting to a lower gear while drivingon steep downhill roads in order to prevent the brakes from overheat- ing.
(7) Periodically confirm that the brake warning lamp functions properly.
(8) With new brake linings, if possible, avoid applying the brakes fully dur- ing the first 200 km (124 miles) of driving.
HSRFL150
(5) Check the brake system while driv- ing at a low speed immediately after starting, especially when the brakes are wet, to confirm that itworks normally. D120A01P-GAT PARKING BRAKE To park the vehicle, first bring it to a complete stop, fully engage the park-ing brake, and then set the gearshift lever at 1st or reverse. Move the trans- fer shift lever to any position.
1. To apply, pull the lever up without
pushing the button at the end of hand grip.
2. To release, pull the lever slightly,
push the button at the end of handgrip, and then push it downward. D120A01P

D110A01P-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 objectscould move forward and cause dam- age to the vehicle or injure the oc- cupants.
o After being parked, check to be sure the parking brake is not engagedand that the parking brake indicator light is out before driving away.
o Driving through water may get the brakes wet. They can also get wetwhen the vehicle is washed. Your vehicle may not stop as quickly if thebrakes are wet and it may also pull to one side. To dry the brakes, apply the brakes lightly until the brakingaction returns to normal, taking care to keep the vehicle under control at all times. If the braking action doesnot return to normal, stop as soon as it is safe to do so and call your Hyundai dealer for assistance. o Don’t coast down hills with the ve-
hicle out of gear. This may be ex-tremely hazardous. Keep the vehicle in gear at all times, use the brakes to slow down, thenshift to a lower gear so that engine braking will help you maintain a safe speed.
o Don’t "ride" the brake pedal. Rest- ing your foot on the brake pedalwhile driving can be dangerous be-cause it can result in the brakes overheating and losing their effec- tiveness. It also increases the wearof the brake components.
o If a tire goes flat while you are
driving, apply the brakes gently andkeep the vehicle pointed straight ahead while you slow down. When you are moving slowly enough for itto be safe to do so, pull off the road and stop in a safe place.
o If your vehicle is equipped with an automatic transmission, don’t letyour vehicle creep forward. To avoid creeping forward, keepyour foot on the brake pedal when the vehicle is stopped.
D130A01P-GAT LOADING Loading should not be to the point at which the Maximum Gross VehicleWeight is exceeded. Loading should be as uniform as pos- sible.Driving stability will be reduced if the load is unequal between front/rear or left/right.Avoid sudden starts, sudden braking, and sharp cornering.

D140A02P-GAT ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM (ABS) (If installed) The Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) is designed to prevent wheel lock-upduring sudden braking or on hazard- ous road surfaces. A computer moni- tors the wheel speed and controls thepressure applied to each brake. Thus, in emergency situations or on slick roads, your ABS will increase vehiclecontrol during braking. NOTE: During ABS operation, a slight pul- sation may be felt in the brake pedalwhen the brakes are applied. Also, a noise may be heard in the engine compartment while driving. Theseconditions are normal and indicate that the anti-lock brake system is functioning properly. WARNING:
ABS will not prevent accidents dueto improper or dangerous driving maneuvers. Even though vehicle control is improved during emer-gency braking, always maintain a safe distance between you and ob- jects ahead. Vehicle speeds shouldalways be reduced during extreme road conditions. The braking distance for carsequipped with an anti-lock braking system may be longer than for those without it in the following road con-ditions. During these conditions, the ve- hicle should be driven at reducedspeeds:
o On rough, gravel or snow-cov- ered roads.
o With tire chains installed.
o On roads where the road surface
is pitted or has different surface height.
o Use caution when parking on a hill.
Engage the parking brake and place the gear selector lever in "P"(automatic transmission) or in first or reverse gear (manual trans-mission). If your vehicle is facing downhill, turn the front wheels away from the curb to help keep thevehicle from rolling. If there is no curb or if it is required by other conditions to keep the vehicle fromrolling, block the wheels.
o Under some conditions your park-
ing brake can freeze in the engagedposition. This is most likely to hap- pen when there is an accumulation of snow or ice around or near therear brakes or if the brakes are wet. if there is a risk that the parking brake may freeze, apply it only tem-porarily while you put the gear se- lector lever in "P" (automatic trans- mission) or in first or reverse gear(manual transmission) and block the rear wheels so the vehicle cannot roll. Then release the parking brake.

DRIVING FOR ECONOMY
C140A01P-GAT You can save fuel and get more kilo- meters from your car if you follow these suggestions:
o Drive smoothly. Accelerate at a moderate rate. Don't make "jack- rabbit" starts or full-throttle shiftsand maintain a steady cruising speed. Don't race between stop- lights. Try to adjust your speed tothat of the other traffic so you don't have to change speeds unneces- sarily. Avoid heavy traffic wheneverpossible. Always maintain a safe distance from other vehicles so you can avoidunnecessary braking. This also re- duces brake wear.
o Drive at a moderate speed. The faster you drive, the more fuel yourcar uses. Driving at a moderate speed, especially on the highway, isone of the most effective ways to reduce fuel consumption.

Raise the car high enough so that the fully inflated spare tire can be installed.To do this, you will need more ground clearance than is required to remove the flat tire. Using the jack handle, turn the release valve counterclockwise slow to lower the ram, and then take out the jack.Press the piston down all the way and turn the release valve clockwise as far as possible. HAUT407
HAUT409
CAUTION:
o Use only the jack included with the vehicle and use it only for changing a wheel.
o Position the jack on a hard level
surface.
o If the release valve is loosened
by turning it 2 or more times in the counterclockwise direction, the jack’s oil will leak and the jack cannot be used.
o This jack is hydraulic, and the ram is a two-stage type. Whenboth rams are raised and the stopmark(Green paint) of the upper
! Stop mark
ram becomes visible, stop jack- ing immediately.Further extension of the ram may damage the jack.
o When the jack is used, be sure
that there is no one in or underthe vehicle.
o When jacking up the vehicle, do so only until the tires are slightlylifted from the ground. It is dan- gerous to jack up the vehiclemore than that much.
o It is very dangerous if the jack
somehow slips, so never leavethe vehicle in the jacked-up posi- tion, and never shake the vehicle while it is raised.
WARNING:
Do not get under the car when it is supported by the jack! This is very dangerous as the vehicle could falland cause serious injury or death. No one should stay in the car while the jack is being used.

D060G01A-AAT 6. Changing Wheels Use the wrench to loosen the wheel nuts, then remove them with your fin-gers. Remove the wheel cover (if in- stalled) from the wheel and slide the wheel off the studs and lay it flat so itcannot roll away. To put the wheel on the hub, pick up the spare tire, line up the holes with the studs and slide thewheel onto them. If this is difficult, tip the wheel slightly and get the top hole in the wheel lined up with the top stud.Then jiggle the wheel back and forth until the wheel can be slid over the other studs.

WARNING:
Wheel covers may have sharp edges. Handle them carefully to avoid possible severe injury.Before putting the wheel into place, be sure that there is nothing on the hub or wheel (such as mud, tar,gravel, etc.) that interferes with the wheel from fitting solidly against the hub. If there is, remove it. Ifthere is not good contact on the mounting surface between the wheel and hub, the wheel nuts couldcome loose and cause the loss of a wheel. Loss of a wheel may result in loss of control of the vehicle. Thismay cause serious injury or death. D060H01A-AAT 7. Reinstall Wheel Nuts To reinstall the wheel cover, hold it on the wheel and put the wheel nuts onthe studs and tighten them finger tight. The nuts should be installed with their small diameter ends directed inward.Jiggle the tire to be sure it is completely seated, then tighten the nuts with your fingers again.

!WARNING:
o Improperly loading your car and trailer can serious affect its steer- ing and braking performance causing a crash in which youmay be seriously injured.
o For automatic transmission ve-
hicles, the trailer should be towedwith the towing vehicle unloaded, with the exception of the driver. Otherwise, the automatic trans-mission oil temperature may rise to a temperature that may result in serious damage of the auto- matic transmission. C190F02A-GAT Trailer or Vehicle Towing Tips
1. Before towing, check hitch and
safety chain connections as well as proper operation of the trailer run- ning lights, brake lights, and turn signals.
2. Always drive your vehicle at a mod- erate speed (Less than 100 km/h).
3. Trailer towing requires more fuel than normal conditions.
4. To maintain engine braking effi-
ciency and electrical charging per-formance, do not use fifth gear (manual transmission) or overdrive (automatic transmission).
5. Always secure items in the trailer to prevent load shift while driving.
6. Check the condition and air pres- sure of all tires on the trailer and your car. Low tire pressure can se- riously affect the handling. Alsocheck the spare tire.
7. The vehicle/trailer combination is
more affected by crosswind andbuffeting. When being passed by a large vehicle, keep a constant speed and steer straight ahead. If there is too much wind buffeting,slow down to get out of the othervehicle’s air turbulence.
8. When parking your car and trailer,
especially on a hill, be sure to followall the normal precautions. Turn your front wheel into the curb, set the parking brake firmly, and put thetransmission in 1st or "R" (manual transmission) or "P" (automatic transmission). In addition, placewheel chocks at each of the trailer’s tires.
9. If the trailer has electric brakes, start your vehicle and trailer mov-ing, and then apply the trailer brake controller by hand to be sure thebrakes are working. This lets you check your electrical connection at the same time.
10.During your trip, check occasion- ally to be sure that the load issecure, and that the lights and anytrailer brakes are still working.
11.Avoid jerky starts, sudden accel-
eration or sudden stops.
12.Avoid sharp turns and rapid lane changes.
