YC030A1-E STEERING WHEEL LOCK When the ignition key is removed, the steering wheel lock will be activated.The lock only engages at one position of the steering wheel and therefore it will be possible to turn the wheel untilthis position is reached. It is not, how- ever, necessary for the lock to be engaged before leaving the vehiclesince in the event of attempted unauthorised removal, the lock will en- gage when attempts are made to steerthe vehicle. Should it be difficult to turn the key from the "LOCK" position, it may befound that rocking the steering wheel to and fro whilst turning the key will assist.
CAUTION:
Never remove the key from the igni- tion lock whilst the vehicle is in motion since the steering mecha-nism lock will be activated. C070C01A-AAT To Remove the Ignition Key
1. Turn the ignition key to the "ACC"
position.
2. Simultaneously push and turn the
ignition key counterclockwise
from the "ACC" position to the "LOCK" position.

NOTE: Do not operate the starter for more than 15 seconds continuously or continue to operate the starter afterthe engine has started to avoid dam- aging the starter motor. If the en- gine makes a false start, allow it andthe starter motor to come to rest before attempting to start the en- gine again. Never attempt to startthe engine with the transmission in gear. Do not depress the accelera- tor pedal whilst starting the engine.Allow the engine to idle for 20 sec- onds or so before driving the ve- hicle.
CAUTION:
Do not leave the vehicle unattendedwhilst idling. Never allow the vehicleto idle or warm up in a confined space (i.e. garage) longer than is necessary to move the vehicle intoan open area. C050B01HP-EAT Starting Procedure
1. Insert key, and fasten the seat belt.
2. Apply the parking brake.
3. If your Hyundai is equipped with a
manual transmission, place the shiftlever in neutral and depress theclutch pedal fully. If your Hyundai has an automatic transmission, place the shift lever in "P" (park). NOTE: If the engine were not started within 2 seconds after the preheating is completed, turn the ignition keyonce more to the "LOCK" position during 10 seconds, and then to the "ON" position, in order to preheatagain.
WARNING:
Be sure that the clutch is fully de- pressed when starting a manual tranmission vehicle. Otherwise thereis the potential to cause damage to the vehicle or injury to someone inside or outside the ve-hicle as a result of the forward or backward movement of the vehicle that will occur if the clutch is notdepressed when the vehicle is started.
5. Turn the ignition key to the "START" position and release it when the engine starts.

o Always ensure that the periodic main-
tenance services are performed by a Hyundai dealer at the time and/or mileage intervals specified.
o Use the air conditioner only when
necessary.
The five speed fully synchronized trans-mission is controlled by a floor mounted shift lever upon which the shift patternis indicated. It is important that when changing gear, the clutch pedal is fully depressed to avoid transmission dam-age. 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. Release the lever immediately the shift iscompleted.
o To avoid premature clutch wear,
do not use the clutch pedal as afoot rest, and do not hold the vehicle on a gradient using the clutch.
o Ensure that the engine is not over- revved by upshifting before thetachometer needle enters the redzone.
o Do not coast with the shift lever at
the neutral position.
o When descending long gradients, make use of the engine braking toassist the footbrake to avoid brakefade or over-heating.

C350A01HP-EAT Part-time 4WD operation (Not all models) 1. Knob position This is used to set different positions. 2H(Rear-wheel drive) When driving on normal roads and highway. 4H(High range 4-wheel drive) When driving off-road, wet or snow- covered roads with normal speed. The 4WD HIGH indicator light ( )will be turned on to remind you that you are in the 4H mode.
!
4L(Low range 4-wheel drive) Use "4L" for climbing or descending steep hills, off-road driving, and ve-hicle towing. Especially when increased drive power is required.The 4WD LOW indicator light ( ) will be turned on to remind you that you are in the 4L mode.
2. Transfer shift knob operation By turning the transfer shift knob(4H, 4L), both axles of the vehicle are rigidlyconnected with each other. This im- proves the traction characteristics.
2H
4H
Turn the transfer shift knob from the 2H mode to the 4H mode at speed below 50mph (80 km/h). It is not nec- essary to depress the clutch pedal(Manual Transmission) or put the shift lever into "N(neutral)" position (Auto- matic Transmission). Perform thisoperation when driving straight. 4H
2H
Turn the transfer shift knob from the4H mode to the 2H mode at speedbelow 50mph (80 km/h). It is not nec- essary to depress the clutch pedal (Manual Transmission) or put the shiftlever into "N(neutral)" position (Auto- matic Transmission). Perform this op- eration when driving straight.
CAUTION:
Do not select 4WD (4H or 4L) modeon dry paved roads. Especially on dry highway, never select the 4WD mode.Four-wheel driving on dry paved roads for a long period will increase the fuel consumption with possiblenoise generation and early tyre wear. In addition, axle gear oil tem- perature increases with possibledriving system part wear.
