2- 8 DRIVING YOUR HYUNDAI
C070A01TB 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 is completed.
o To avoid premature clutch wear, do not use the clutch pedal as afoot rest, and do not hold thevehicle on a gradient using the clutch.
o Ensure that the engine is not
over-revved by upshifting beforethe tachometer needle enters the red 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 to avoid brake fade or over-heating.
C070A01TB-EAT MANUAL TRANSAXLE The five speed fully synchronized transaxle is controlled by a floor mounted shift lever upon which theshift pattern is indicated. It is important that when changing gear, the clutch pedal is fully depressed to avoidtransaxle damage. o When slippery conditions are en-
countered, increased caution should be exercised when gear changing, braking or accelerat-ing. Abrupt changes in speed may cause a loss of traction or control 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 the transaxle.
o If you 've come to a complete stop and it's hard to shift into 1stor R(Reverse), put the shift lever in N(Neutral) position and releasethe clutch. Press the clutch pedal back down, and then shift into 1st 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 main-
tenance services are performed by aHyundai authorised repairer at thetime and/or mileage intervals speci- fied.
o Use the air conditioning only when necessary.

ZC170C1-E Anti-freeze/Corrosion inhibitor The cooling system must always con- tain an Ethylene-Glycol based anti-freeze solution. The system is filled during manufacture with solution of the correct strength which should bechecked before the onset of winter and adjusted or changed as required. NOTE: The anti-freeze solution contains a corrosion inhibitor to prevent deg- radation of the aluminum castings contained within the engine. There-fore, never, drain the system and refill with water only. In addition, anti-freeze solution must ALWAYS be used in vehicles fitted with air conditioning, to prevent theheater matrix from freezing and sub- sequently bursting with the refrigera- tion system in use.
SC160A1-F SMOOTH CORNERING Avoid braking or gear changing in cor- ners, especially when roads are wet.Ideally, corners should always be taken under gentle acceleration. If you follow these suggestions, tyre wear will beheld to a minimum.
SC170A1-E WINTER MOTORING The onset of winter conditions subject motor vehicles to greater operating demands. Therefore, the followingsuggestions will assist in maintaining peak 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 performance and drive belt condition should be checked prior to the onset of winter.
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, shift to a lower gear. Over-revving is racing the enginebeyond its safe limit. This can be avoided 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 yourfuel economy is reduced when you use it.

3- 4 WHAT TO DO IN AN EMERGENCY
!
!
D030A02TB-EAT IF THE ENGINE OVERHEATS If the temperature gauge indicates overheating:
1. Pull off the road and stop as soon as
it is safe to do so.
2. Place the gear selector lever in "P" (automatic), or neutral (manual transaxle) and set the parking brake.If the air conditioning is on, turn it off.
3. If coolant is running out under the car
or steam is coming out from underthe bonnet stop the engine. Do not open the bonnet until the coolant has stopped running or the steaming hasstopped. If there is no visible loss of coolant and no steam, leave the engine running and check to be surethe engine cooling fan is operating. If the fan is not running, turn the engine off.
4. Check to see if the water pump drive belt is missing. If it is not missing,check to see that it is tight. If thedrive belt seems to be satisfactory, check for coolant leaking from the radiator, hoses or under the car. (Ifthe air conditioning had been in use, it is normal for cold water to be draining from it). WARNING:
Whilst the engine is running, keep hands and clothing away from mov- ing parts such as the fan and drivebelts to prevent injury.
7. Switch ON the main beam
headlamps before carefully remov-ing the jumper cables in the reverseorder of attachment. Once the jumper cables have been removed, switch "OFF" the main beamheadlamps.
CAUTION:
If the jump cable is incorrectly in-stalled, damage to the vehicle elec- trical system may occur, in particu- lar the electronic components suchas the Fuel Injection system com- puter and the Automatic transaxle computer. The battery must neverbe disconnected whilst the engine is running.
!
WARNING (Diesel only):
Never work on injection system with engine running or within 30 sec- onds after shutting off engine. Highpressure pump, rail, injectors and high pressure pipes are subject to high pressure even after the enginestopped. The fuel jet produced by fuel leaks may cause serious in- jury, if it touches the body. Peopleusing pacemakers should not move closer than 30cm etc. to the ECU or wiring harness within the engineroom while engine is running, since the high currents in the Common Rail system produce considerablemagnetic fields.

6- 10 DO-IT-YOURSELF MAINTENANCE
Diesel engine Only ethylene glycol based coolant with a corrosion inhibitor suited to aluminium alloy engine components should beused in the cooling system. No further additives or inhibitors should be used. The coolant specific gravity should bechecked as prescribed in the mainte- nance schedule to ensure adequate frost and corrosion protection. In addi-tion, the engine coolant must be re- placed at the specified interval since the corrosion inhibitor properties dete-riorate with time. It is important to note that whilst an increase in the concentration of antifreeze gives an increase in the level of frost protection, a solution which is in excess of 65% anti freeze will result inreduced frost protection and engine overheating. Therefore the recom- mended concentration of 50% shouldnot be exceeded for general use. The use of methanol based anti freeze compounds may result in engine over-heating and will invalidate the vehicle warranty.

HTB170
HTB170A NOTE: It is imperative that vehicles fitted with an air conditioning system have a coolant concentration of the rec-ommended strength at all times. The use of the air conditioning system when the cooling system is filledwith water only will result in the heater matrix freezing and subse- quently bursting.

SG140C1-E Checking the Refrigerant
1. Start the engine and run at idle for
several minutes with the refrigera- tion system running at the coldest setting.
2. Open the bonnet and inspect the
sight glass on the top of the receiverdryer.
3. If the refrigerant charge is insuffi- cient, a flow of bubbles will be ob-served through the sight glass.
4. If the refrigerant charge is satisfac- tory, no bubbles will be observedthrough the sight glass.
CAUTION:
Running the air conditioning systemwith a low refrigerant level may dam- age the compressor.
!
!WARNING:
Brake fluid is hygroscopic and should never be stored in an un-sealed container. The presence of water in the braking system will cause vapour locks and increase the possi-bility of brake fade along with pro- moting corrosion within the braking system. The brake fluid must bechanged at the specified time or mile- age interval to ensure continued safe operation of the system. Brake fluid will cause rapid and serious damage to paintwork. If accidental spillageoccurs, the affected area must be rinsed with water immediately. Do not allow brake fluid to come intocontact with the eyes or to be in- gested and ensure that fluid is safely stored away form the reach of chil-dren. SG140A1-E AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM MAINTENANCECondenser Ensure that the condenser is periodi- cally inspected and that accumulations of dirt, dead insects and leaves etc, areremoved to ensure that the efficiency of the system is not impaired. Care must be exercised to ensure that the con-denser fins are not damaged during cleaning.

B145A02TB-EAT CHANGING THE POLLEN FIL-
TER (In Front of evaporator unit)(Not all models) The pollen filter is located in front of the evaporator unit behind the glove box. It operates to decrease pollutants fromentering the car and to filter the air.
1. Remove the adjusting pins on both
sides of the glove box to open half the glove box.
HTB290-D
SG140D1-E Off Season Maintenance The air conditioning must be run for ten minutes or so weekly during periodswhen the system would not normally be used to ensure that the compressor and seals are lubricated. If this precautionis not observed the compressor seals may become stuck to the compressor shaft and damaged when the system isnext used resulting in a loss of refriger- ant and damage to the compressor.
3. Remove the filter cover to push theupside of the filter cover.
