Driving your vehicle
Transaxle rangesP (park)Always come to a complete stop before
shifting into P (Park). This position locks
the transaxle and prevents the front
wheels from rotating.
R (reverse)Use this position to drive the vehicle
backward.N (neutral)The wheels and transaxle are not locked.
The vehicle will roll freely even on the
slightest incline unless the parking brake
or service brakes are applied.D (drive)This is the normal forward driving posi-
tion. The transaxle will automatically shift
through a 5-gear sequence, providing the
best fuel economy and power.
For extra power when passing another
vehicle or climbing grades, depress the
accelerator fully, at which time the
transaxle will automatically downshift to
the next lower gear.
(Continued)
Before leaving the driver’s seat,
always make sure the shift lever
is in the P (PARK) position. Set
the parking brake fully, shut the
engine off and take the key with
you. Unexpected and sudden
vehicle movement can occur if
you do not follow these precau-
tions in the order specified.
Never leave a child unattended in
a vehicle.
WARNING
Shifting into P (Park) while the
vehicle is in motion will cause the
drive wheels to lock which will
cause you to lose control of the
vehicle.
Do not use the P (Park) position
in place of the parking brake.
Always make sure the shift lever
is latched in the P (Park) position
so that it cannot be moved unless
the lock release button is pushed
in, AND set the parking brake
fully.
(Continued)
CAUTION
The transaxle may be damaged if
you shift into P (Park) while the
vehicle is in motion.
CAUTION
Always come to a complete stop
before shifting into or out of R
(Reverse); you may damage the
transaxle if you shift into R while
the vehicle is in motion, except as
explained in “Rocking the Vehicle”,
in this manual.

Driving your vehicle
The back warning system assists the
driver during backward movement of the
vehicle by chiming if any object is sensed
within a distance of 47 in. (120 cm)
behind the vehicle. This system is a sup-
plemental system and it is not intended
to nor does it replace the need for
extreme care and attention of the driver.
The sensing range and objects
detectable by the back sensors are limit-
ed. Whenever backing-up, pay as much
attention to what is behind you as you
would in a vehicle without a back warning
system.
Operation of the back warning
systemOperating condition This system will activate when backing
up with the ignition key ON.
If the vehicle is moving at a speed over
3 mph (5 km/h), the system may not be
activated correctly.
The sensing distance while the Back
Warning System is in operation is
approximately 47 in. (120 cm).
When more than two objects are
sensed at the same time, the closest
one will be recognized first.Types of warning sound When an object is 47 in. to 32 in. (120
cm to 81 cm) from the rear bumper :
Buzzer beeps intermittently
When an object is 31 in. to 16 in. (80 cm
to 41 cm) from the rear bumper : Buzzer
beeps more frequently
When an object is within 15 in. (40 cm)
of the rear bumper : Buzzer sounds
continuously.
BACK WARNING SYSTEM (IF EQUIPPED)
WARNING
The Back Warning System is a sup-
plementary function only. The oper-
ation of the Back Warning System
can be affected by several factors
(including environmental condi-
tions). It is the responsibility of the
driver to always check the area
behind the vehicle before backing
up.

What to do in an emergency
If engine turns over normally but
does not start1. Check fuel level.
2. With the key in the "OFF" position,
check all connectors at ignition, coil
and spark plugs. Reconnect any that
may be disconnected or loose.
3. Check the fuel line in the engine com-
partment.
4. If the engine still does not start, call a
Hyundai dealer or seek other qualified
assistance.If engine stalls while driving1. Reduce your speed gradually, keeping
a straight line. Move cautiously off the
road to a safe place.
2. Turn on your emergency flashers.
3. Try to start the engine again. If your
vehicle will not start, contact a
Hyundai dealer or seek other qualified
assistance.
Jump starting Jump starting can be dangerous if done
incorrectly. Therefore, to avoid harm to
yourself or damage to your vehicle or
battery, follow the jump starting proce-
dures. If in doubt, we strongly recom-
mend that you have a competent techni-
cian or towing service jump start your
vehicle.EMERGENCY STARTING
CAUTION
Use only a 12-volt jumper system.
You can damage a 12-volt starting
motor, ignition system, and other
electrical parts beyond repair by
use of a 24-volt power supply (either
two 12-volt batteries in series or a
24-volt motor generator set).
WARNING
- Battery
• Keep all flames or sparks away
from the battery. The battery pro-
duces hydrogen gas which may
explode if exposed to flame or
sparks.
Do not attempt to jump start the
vehicle if the discharged battery
is frozen or if the electrolyte level
is low; the battery may rupture or
explode.
WARNING
- Battery
Never attempt to check the elec-
trolyte level of the battery as this
may cause the battery to rupture or
explode causing serious injury.
