o During cold weather, shifting may
be difficult until the transmis- sion lubricant has warmed up. This is normal and not harmful to the transmission.
o If you 've come to a complete stop and it's hard to shift into 1stor R(Reverse), put the shift leverin N(Neutral) position and release the clutch. Press the clutch pedal back 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 of the transmission shift forks.
CAUTION:
When downshifting from fifth gearto fourth gear, caution should be taken not to inadvertently press thegear shift lever sideways in such a manner that second gear is en- gaged. Such a drastic downshiftmay cause the engine speed to in- crease to the point that the tachom- eter will enter the red-zone. Suchover-revving of the engine may possibly cause engine damage.
Your Hyundai's manual transmissionhas a conventional shift pattern. This shift pattern is imprinted on the shiftknob. The transmission is fully syn- chronized in all forward gears so shift- ing to either a higher or a lower gear iseasily accomplished. NOTE:
o To shift into reverse, rest the le-
ver in neutral for at least 3 sec- onds after your car is completely stopped. Then move the leverinto the reverse position.

o R (Reverse): Use for backing up the vehicle. Bring the car to a complete stop before shifting the selector lever to "R" posi-tion. C090D01HP-GAT
o N (Neutral): In the "N" position, the transmission is in neutral, which means that no gearsare engaged. The engine can be started with the shift lever in "N" position, although this is not recommended ex-cept if the engine stalls while the car is moving.
C090E01HP-GAT
o D (Drive): Use for normal driving. The transmis- sion will automatically shift through a four-gear sequence, giving besteconomy and power. Never down-shift manually to "2" position or "L" position when vehicle speed is more than 96km/h (60 mph).
