!WARNING:
The engine must never be turned off and the key removed from the igni-tion key cylinder whilst the vehicle is in motion since the steering lock will operate and control of the vehiclewill be lost.

!WARNING: (Diesel only)
To ensure that sufficient vacuum exists within the brake system dur- ing cold weather start-up condi-tions, it is necessary to run the engine at idle after starting accord- ing to the following table. After starting the engine, do not drive the vehicle until the brake vacuum warning light has turned off.Failure to carry out the above pro- cedure may result in the need to apply greater pedal pressure in or-der to effect the necessary braking effort.

YC030A2-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 necessary to turn the wheel untilthis position is reached. It is not, how- ever, necessary for the lock to be en- gaged before leaving the vehicle sincein the event of attempted unauthorised removal, the lock will engage when attempts are made to steer the vehicle.
CAUTION:
Never remove the key from the igni-tion lock whilst the vehicle is inmotion 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.
3. The key can be removed in the "LOCK" position.

NOTE: Do not hold the key in the "START" position for more than 15 seconds. "ON" When the key is at the "ON" position, the ignition and all accessories are available for use. If the engine is notrunning, the key should not be left at this position since the battery will be- come discharged and damage to theignition system may also result. For information regarding engine starting, refer to "STARTING THE ENGINE". "ACC" When the ignition key is at the "ACC" position, the radio and other accesso- ries may be used. "LOCK" The ignition key may only be inserted or removed at this position. NOTE: The ignition key can only be re- moved if the transmission selector is at the "P" position (automatictransmission only).

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).

4. On vehicles equipped with the diesel preheat indication lamp, turn the igni- tion key to the "ON" position. The diesel-preheat indication lamp will first illuminate in amber, and thenafter a short time, the amber illumi- nation will go off, indicating that pre- heating is completed.
1. Ensure that the gearshift lever is in
neutral and that the clutch pedal isheld depressed (manual transmis-sion) or the selector lever is at the "P" position (automatic transmission vehicle).
2. Turn the ignition key to and hold at the "START" position until the en-gine starts. When the engine hasstarted, release the key.

o Avoid carrying unnecessary weight,
and if a roof rack is in use, remove it as soon as possible after use.
o Anticipate the road and conditions
ahead to enable adjustments inspeed to be made smoothly. Avoid heavy acceleration and sharp brak- ing.
o Avoid cruising at unnecessary high speeds.
o Always ensure that the periodic main- tenance services are performed by a Hyundai authorised repairer at the time and/or mileage intervals speci-fied.
o Use the air conditioner only when
necessary. The five speed fully synchronized trans- mission is controlled by a floor mounted gearshift lever upon which the shiftpattern is indicated. It is important that when changing gear, the clutch pedal is fully depressed to avoid transmissiondamage. 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 gearshift
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.

o When slippery conditions are en-
countered, increased caution should be exercised when gear changing, braking or accelerat- ing. Abrupt changes in speed maycause a loss of traction or control of the vehicle.
o During cold weather, shifting may be difficult until the transmis-sion lubricant has warmed up. This is normal and not harmful tothe transmission.
o If you've come to a complete stop
and it's hard to shift into 1st orR(Reverse), put the gearshift lever in N(Neutral) position and release the clutch. Press the clutch pedalback down, and then shift into 1st or R(Reverse) gear position.
o Do not use the gearshift lever as a handrest during driving, as thiscan result in premature wear of the transmission shift forks. C070B01A-EAT Using the Clutch The clutch should be pressed all the way to the floor before shifting, then released slowly. The clutch pedal should aways be used after fully re-turning to the original position. Do not rest your foot on the clutch pedal whilst driving. This can cause unnecessarywear. Do not partially engage the clutch to hold the car on an incline. This causesunnecessary wear. Use the parking brake to hold the car on an incline. Do not operate the clutch pedal rapidlyand repeatedly.
!WARNING:
o Avoid high cornering speeds.
o Do not make quick steering wheel movements, such as sharp lane changes or fast, sharp turns.
o Always wear your seat belts.
In a collision crash, an unbeltedperson is significantly more likely to die than a person wearing a seatbelt.
o The risk of rollover is greatly in- creased if you lose control of yourvehicle at motorway speeds.
o Loss of control often occurs if two or more wheels drop off the road-way and the driver oversteers toreenter the roadway.
o In the event your vehicle leaves
the roadway, do not steer sharply.Instead, slow down before pulling back into the travel lanes.
o Never exceed posted speed limits.

The highly efficient Hyundai automatic transmission has four forward speeds and one reverse speed. It has a con-ventional shift pattern as shown in the illustration. At night, with the sidelights or head-lights switched on, the appropriate symbol on the quadrant will be illumi- nated according to the range selected. NOTE:
Depress the brake pedal and push the button when shifting. Push the button when shifting.The selector lever can be shifted freely.
For optimum fuel economy, acceler-ate gradually. The transmission will automatically shift to the second, thirdand fourth (overdrive) gears.
CAUTION:
Never shift into "R" or "P" position whilst the vehicle is moving.
C070E04A-EAT RECOMMENDED SHIFT POINTS The shift points as shown above are recommended for optimum fuel economy and performance. NOTE: The shift points are recommended and should only be used in the ap- propriate driving conditions.
