1. Push the control switch downward
to "SET (COAST)" and hold it. The vehicle will decelerate.
2. When the desired speed is obtained, release the control switch. Whilethe control switch is pushed, the vehicle speed will gradually de-crease. WARNING:
o Keep the main switch off when not using the cruise control.
o Use the cruise control system
only when traveling on open high-ways in good weather.
o Do not use the cruise control
when it may not be safe to keepthe car at a constant speed, for instance, driving in heavy or vary- ing traffic, or on slippery (rainy,icy or snow-covered) or winding roads or over 6% up-hill or down- hill roads.
o Pay particular attention to the driving conditions whenever us-ing the cruise control system.
o During cruise-control driving with a manual transaxle vehicle,do not shift into neutral withoutdepressing the clutch pedal, or the engine will be overrevved. If this happens, depress the clutchpedal or release the main switch. o With the cruise control engaged,
when the brake pedal is applied,it is normal to hear the cruisecontrol system deactivate. This is an indication of normal system operation.
o During normal cruise control operation, when the "SET(COAST)" is activated or reacti-vated after applying the brakes, the cruise control will energize after approximately 3 seconds.This delay is normal.

B740D01A-AAT Operation Tips
o If the interior of the car is hot when you first get in, open the windows for a few minutes to expel the hot air.
o When you are using the air condi-
tioning system, keep all windowsclosed to keep hot air out.
o When moving slowly, as in heavy
traffic, shift to a lower gear. Thisincreases engine speed, which in turn increases the speed of the air conditioning compressor.
o On steep grades, turn the air condi- tioning off to avoid the possibility ofthe engine over-heating.
o During winter months or in periods when the air conditioning is not usedregularly, run the air conditioningonce every month for a few min- utes. This will help circulate the lubricants and keep your system inpeak operating condition.
B740C01S-AAT Dehumidified Heating For dehumidified heating:
o Turn on the fan control switch.
o Turn on the air conditioning switch.
The air conditioning indicator light should come on at the same time.
o Set the air intake control to the
"Fresh" mode ( ).
o Set the air flow control to the "Face" ( ).
o Adjust the fan control to the desired speed.
o For more rapid action, set the fan at
one of the higher speeds.
o Adjust the temperature control to provide the desired amount ofwarmth.

:OFF
: ON Fresh Mode :
Air enters the vehicle from the outside and is heated or cooled according to the function selected.
Recirculation Mode :
Air from within the passenger compart- ment will be drawn through the heating system and heated or cooled according to the function selected. Exhaust Gas Cutoff Mode :
Air enters the vehicle from the outside.But if exhaust gas enters the vehiclefrom the outside, the exhaust gas cut- off mode ( ) is automatically converted to the ( ) mode, toprevent exhaust gas from entering the vehicle. NOTE:
o It should be noted that prolonged operation of the heating system in recirculation mode ( ) mayresult in misting of the windshield and side windows and the air within the passenger compartment willbecome stale. In addition, pro- longed use of the air conditioning with the recirculation mode ( )selected may result in the air within the passenger compartment be- coming excessively dry.
o When the ignition switch is turned "ON" the air intake control willchange to ( ) mode except forturning "OFF" the ignition switch in A.Q.S mode ( ). It is normal operation. The air intake control isoperated in "AUTO" mode wheno When the ignition switch is turned
"ON" the air intake control will change to "Fresh" mode ( ) (regardless of the switch position). It is normal operation. The airintake control is operated in "AUTO" mode when turning the ignition to the "ON" position if the"AUTO" mode was used before shutting off the engine.

FM broadcasts are transmitted at high frequencies and do not bend to follow the earth's surface. Because of this, FM broadcasts generally begin to fadeat short distances from the station. Also, FM signals are easily affected by buildings, mountains, or other obstruc-tions. These can result in certain listen- ing conditions which might lead you to believe a problem exists with your ra-dio. The following conditions are normal and do not indicate radio trouble:
AM broadcasts can be received at greater distances than FM broadcasts. This is because AM radio waves are transmitted at low frequencies. Theselong, low frequency radio waves can follow the curvature of the earth rather than travelling straight out into theatmosphere. In addition, they curve around obstructions so that they can provide better signal coverage.
AM and FM radio signals are broadcastfrom transmitter towers located around your city. They are intercepted by the radio antenna on your car. This signal isthen received by the radio and sent to your car speakers. When a strong radio signal has reachedyour vehicle, the precise engineering of your audio system ensures the best possible quality reproduction. Howev-er, in some cases the signal coming to your vehicle may not be strong and clear. This can be due to factors suchas the distance from the radio station, closeness of other strong radio stations or the presence of buildings, bridges orother large obstructions in the area.

WARNING: ENGINE EXHAUST CAN BE DANGEROUS!
Engine exhaust fumes can be extremely dangerous. If, at any time, you smell exhaust fumes inside the vehicle, open the windows immediately. o Do not inhale exhaust fumes. Exhaust fumes contain carbon monoxide, a colorless, odorless gas that can cause unconsciousness and death by asphyxiation. o Be sure the exhaust system does not leak. The exhaust system should be checked whenever the vehicle is raised to change the oil or for any other purpose.If you hear a change in the sound of the exhaust or if you drive over something that strikes the underneath side of the car, have the exhaust system checked as soon as possible by your Hyundai dealer. o Do not run the engine in an enclosed area. Letting the engine idle in your garage, even with the garage door open, is a hazardous practice. Never run theengine in your garage any longer than it takes to start the engine and back the car out. o Avoid idling the engine for prolonged periods with people inside the car. If it is necessary to idle the engine for a prolonged period with people inside the car, be sure to do so only in an open area with the air intake set at "Fresh" and fan operating at one of the higher speeds so fresh air is drawn into the interior. If you must drive with the trunk lid / tail gate open because you are carrying objects that make this necessary: 1. Close all windows. 2. Open side vents. 3. Set the air intake control at "Fresh", the air flow control at "Floor" or "Face" and the fan at one of the higher speeds.
To assure proper operation of the ventilation system, be sure the ventilation air intakes located just in front ofthe windshield are kept clear of snow, ice, leaves or other obstructions.
