o Station Swapping - As a FM signal weakens, another more powerful sig- nal near the same frequency may begin to play. This is because your radio is designed to lock onto the clearest signal. If this occurs, selectanother station with a stronger sig- nal.
o Multi-Path Cancellation - Radio sig- nals being received from several di-rections can cause distortion or flut- tering. This can be caused by adirect and reflected signal from the same station, or by signals from two stations with close frequencies. Ifthis occurs, select another station until the condition has passed.
o Fading - As your car moves away
from the radio station, the signal willweaken and sound will begin to fade. When this occurs, we suggest that you select another stronger station.
o Flutter/Static - Weak FM signals or large obstructions between the trans-mitter and your radio can disturb the signal causing static or flutteringnoises to occur. Reducing the treble level may lessen this effect until the disturbance clears. B750B02Y-EAT Using a mobile phone or a two- way radio When a mobile phone is used inside the vehicle, noise may be produced from the audio equipment. This does not mean that something is wrong with theaudio equipment. In such a case, use the mobile phone at a place as far as possible from the audio equipment.
!
CAUTION:
When using a communication sys- tem such a mobile phone or a radio set inside the vehicle, a separateexternal antenna must be fitted. When a mobile phone or a radio set is used with an internal antenna alone, itmay interfere with the vehicle's elec- trical system and adversely affect safe operation of the vehicle.
WARNING:
Don't use a mobile phone whilst youare driving.

WARNING: ENGINE EXHAUST CAN BE DANGEROUS!
Engine exhaust gases are potentially lethal. If at any time engine exhaust gas is detected within the passenger compartment, move the vehicle to an open area and open all windows. o Never inhale exhaust gas. Exhaust gases contain Carbon Monoxide which is colourless and odourless. Carbon Monoxide is poisonous and can cause unconsciousness and death by asphyxiation. o Exhaust System Maintenance. Ensure that the exhaust system is maintained in good condition and is free from excessive corrosion anddamage which may result in leakage. If the vehicle is driven over an object which strikes the exhaust system, ensure that the exhaust system is inspected at the first available opportunity to ensure that no leakage exists. o Confined Areas. Do not run the engine in confined spaces, allowing the engine to idle in a garage, even when the doors are open is dangerous practice. Only start the engine immediately prior to moving the vehicle out of the garage. o Prolonged Idling. If it is necessary to allow the vehicle to idle for prolonged periods, ensure that the heating system air intakecontrol is set to the "Fresh" position, the blower is set to high speed operation and that the vehicle is standing in an open area. To ensure correct operation of the heater system, the air intake grilles at the base of the windscreen must not be obstructed by snow leaves etc..

o "START" The engine is started in this position. It will crank until you release the key. 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 until thisposition is reached. It is not, however, necessary for the lock to be engaged before leaving the vehicle since in theevent of attempted unauthorised re- moval, the lock will engage when at- tempts are made to steer the vehicle. NOTE: If difficulty is experienced in turning the ignition key to the START posi-tion, turn the steering wheel right and left to release the tension and then turn the key.

6FUEL ECONOMY
4. Turn the ignition key to the "START" position and release it when the en- gine starts. SC060B1-E The following suggestions are made to assist in achieving the greatest degree of fuel economy.
o Maintaining a constant check on fuel
consumption will enable the most economical use pattern and drivingstyle to be adopted.
o Avoid using the vehicle for very short journeys if possible, particularly whena cold start is involved.
o Ensure that tyre pressures are main- tained at the correct level.
o Use only the recommended grade of
fuel.
o Avoid carrying unnecessary weight, and if a roof rack is in use, remove itas soon as possible after use.
o Anticipate the road and conditions ahead to enable adjustments in speedto be made smoothly. Avoid heavyacceleration and sharp braking.
o Avoid cruising at unnecessary high speeds.
o Always ensure that the periodic main- tenance services are performed by aHyundai authorised repairer at the
time and/or mileage intervals speci-fied.

C050B01A-EAT Normal Conditions The Starting Procedure:
1. Insert key, and fasten the seat belt.
2. Depress the clutch pedal fully and
place the gearshift lever (manual transaxle) in neutral or the selector lever (automatic transaxle) in "P" (park) position.
3. After turning the ignition key to the "ON" position, make certain all warn-ing lights and gauges are function-ing properly before starting the en- gine.
WARNING:
Be sure that the clutch is fully de- pressed when starting a manual transaxle vehicle. This will prevent sudden movement should the ve-hicle be started in gear without the clutch depressed. Otherwise there is the potential tocause damage to the vehicle or in- jury to a person inside or outside of the vehicle as a result of this suddenvehicle movement.

o If you've come to a complete stopand it's hard to shift into 1st or R(Reverse), put the gearshift lever in N(Neutral) position and let upon the clutch. Press the clutch pedal back down, and then shift into 1st or R(Reverse) gear posi-tion.
o Do not use the gearshift lever as a
handrest during driving, as thiscan result in premature wear of the transaxle shift forks.
o Do not downshift more than 2 gears at once or when the engine isrunning at high speed (5,000 RPM or higher). Such downshifting maydamage the engine.
C070B01A-EAT Using the Clutch The clutch should be pressed all the way to the floor before shifting, thenreleased slowly. The clutch pedal should always be used after fully returning to the original position. Do not rest yourfoot on the clutch pedal whilst driving. This can cause unnecessary wear. Do not partially engage the clutch tohold the car on an incline. This causes unnecessary wear. Use the parking brake to hold the car onan incline. Do not operate the clutch pedal rapidly and 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 aseat belt.
o The risk of rollover is greatly in-
creased if you lose control of your vehicle at motorway speeds.
o Loss of control often occurs if two
or more wheels drop off the road-way and the driver oversteers to reenter the roadway.
o In the event your vehicle leaves the roadway, do not steer sharply.Instead, slow down before pullingback into the travel lanes.
o Never exceed posted speed limits.
!WARNING:
Starting the engine without depress- ing the clutch pedal, when the park- ing brake is released and the shiftlever not in the N(Neutral) position, the vehicle may move and cause a serious accident.

!o If your vehicle becomes stuck in
snow, mud, sand, etc., then you may attempt to rock the vehicle free by moving it forward and back-ward. Do not attempt this proce- dure if people or objects are any- where near the vehicle. During therocking operation the vehicle may suddenly move forward of back- ward as it becomes unstuck, caus-ing injury or damage to nearby people or objects.
WARNING:
o Avoid high cornering speeds.
o Do not make quick steering wheel movements, such as sharp lane changes or fast, sharp turns.

ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM (ABS)
C120A01FC-EAT (Not all models) The Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) is designed to prevent wheel lock-up dur-ing sudden braking or on hazardous road surfaces. The ABS control module monitors the wheel speed and controlsthe pressure applied to each brake. Thus, in emergency situations or on slick roads, ABS will increase vehiclecontrol during braking. NOTE:
o A click sound may be heard in the
engine compartment when the ve- hicle begins to move after the en- gine is started. These conditionsare normal and indicate that the anti-lock brake system (Electronic Stability Program) is functioningproperly.
o During ABS (ESP) operation, a
slight pulsation may be felt in thebrake pedal when the brakes are applied. Also, a noise may be heard in the engine compartment whilstbraking. These conditions are nor- mal and indicate that the anti-lock brake system (Electronic StabilityProgram) is functioning properly.
