1- 4 FEATURES OF YOUR HYUNDAI
5) Avoid rapid acceleration and maxi-
mum throttle openings.
6) Avoid harsh braking during the first 100 miles of urban motoring or 1,000 miles of motorway driving to allow the friction facings of the brake padsand shoes to bed against the discs and drums properly.
7) No trailer towing should be under- taken during the running-in period.
B020B01FC-EAT (Diesel Engine) The longevity and performance of the vehicle are greatly affected by the care exercised during the first 1,000 miles ofmotoring. Because of modern manu- facturing techniques, rigid guidelines regarding maximum road speeds havebecome unnecessary. However, cer- tain precautions should be observed in order to obtain the best possible perfor-mance and useful life from the vehicle.
YB020A1-E BEFORE ENTERING THE VEHICLE
o Ensure that all windows, mirrors and
lamps are clean.
o Check condition of all tyres.
o Ensure that no fluid leaks are evi- dent.
o Ensure that the area around the ve- hicle is clear before driving off.
YB020B1-E AFTER ENTERING THE VEHICLE
o Ensure that all occupants fasten and correctly adjust seat belts.
o Ensure that seat and head restraint positions are adjusted for optimum safety, control and comfort.
o Adjust interior and exterior rear view mirrors.
o Verify correct operation of lamps,
horn and other electrical equipment.
o Ensure that warning lamps illumi- nate when ignition is turned on.
NOTE: Fluid levels such as engine oil, en- gine coolant, brake and windscreen washer fluid should be checked dailyor at each refuelling, whichever oc- curs sooner. B020A01FC-EAT RUNNING IN YOUR NEW HYUNDAI (Petrol Engine) The longevity and performance of the vehicle are greatly affected by the care exercised during the first 1,000 miles ofmotoring. Because of modern manu- facturing techniques, rigid guidelines regarding maximum road speeds havebecome unnecessary. However, cer- tain precautions should be observed in order to obtain the best possible perfor-mance and useful life from the vehicle.
1) Do not race the engine without a load
(i.e revving the engine in neutral).
2) During the first 500 miles the maxi-
mum engine speed should be re- stricted to 3,000 rpm and gradually increased thereafter.
3) Avoid prolonged constant speed op- eration. The internal components ofthe engine will become more quickly run in if the operation speed is variedduring the running-in period.
4) Never allow the engine to labour. Use
the gearbox freely and avoid largethrottle openings when the engine speed is below 1,500 rpm.
1- 48 FEATURES OF YOUR HYUNDAI
Warning light operation The parking brake/brake fluid level warn- ing light will be illuminated wheneverthe ignition switch is turned to the "ON" position irrespective of whether or not the parking brake is applied and mustbe extinguished when the engine starts and the parking brake released. If the warning light fails to extinguish orilluminates at any other time, the ve- hicle must be brought to rest in a safe location and the level of brake fluid inthe reservoir checked. If the fluid level is incorrect, fluid conforming to DOT 3 or DOT 4 specifications should be added.If, after correcting the brake fluid level, the warning light continues to be illumi- nated, the advice of the nearest Hyundaiauthorised repairer must be sought be- fore the vehicle is driven again. Your Hyundai is equipped with a diago-nally split dual braking system which will ensure that in the event of one of the brake circuits becoming defective, ap-proximately fifty per cent of the normal braking performance will be available.

OIL PRESSURE WARNING LIGHT
!CAUTION:
If the oil pressure light illuminates when the engine is running, an in- sufficient oil pressure level for con-tinued safe operation of the engine exists. Continued operation of the engine in this condition may resultin serious engine damage. Under normal circumstances, the light will illuminate when the igni- tion is turned "on" and will be extin-guished when the engine is started. If the oil pressure warning light illu- minates whilst the engine is run-ning, stop the engine immediately and check the engine oil level. If the level is insufficient, add the requiredamount of oil as indicated by the engine oil dipstick. If the light fails to extinguish when the engine is re-started, do not continue to operate the vehicle. If the oil pressure light illuminates during normal operation and the cause is not an insufficient oil level, or the light fails to illuminate whenthe ignition is turned "on", contact the nearest Hyundai authorised re- pairer before further operating thevehicle.
WARNING:
In the event of problems being sus- pected with the braking system, the advice of the nearest Hyundai authorised repairer must be soughtbefore the vehicle is driven. Driving the vehicle with either an electrical or hydraulic braking system defectmay be dangerous, resulting in acci- dent or personal injury.

CHARGING SYSTEM WARNING LIGHT
The charging system warning light should illuminate when the ignition switch is turned to the "ON" positionand should be extinguished when the engine is started. If the light fails to illuminate when the ignition is turned"ON" or fails to extinguish after starting the engine, the nearest Hyundai authorised repairer should be contacted.If the light illuminates whilst the vehicle is being driven, stop the vehicle as soon as it is safe to do so and check thecondition of the alternator drive belt. If the belt is in place and the tension is satisfactory, the advice of a Hyundaiauthorised repairer should be sought. SB2100I-E
DOOR OPEN (AJAR) WARNING LIGHT
The door ajar warning light indicates that a door is not correctly closed. Ensure that the light is extinguished prior to driving the vehicle.
B260B01FC-EAT
TAIL GATE OPEN WARNING LIGHT
The tail gate warning light indicates when the tail gate is open or is not fully closed. Ensure that the light has extin-guished prior to driving the vehicle.
CAUTION:
If the drive belt (generator belt) is loose, broken, or missing while thevehicle is driving, there may be a serious malfunction, engine could overheat because this belt also drivesthe water pump.!
If failure of one of the circuits occurs, the required amount of pedal effort, pedal travel and stopping distance willbe increased. Use of the gearbox is recommended to assist in bringing the vehicle to rest. The vehicle must not bedriven once brake failure has occurred until the system has been repairered and is functioning normally.The braking system employs a vacuum servo in order that the pedal efforts are reduced. Power for the servo is derivedfrom the engine and therefore, in the event of the engine stopping or the vehicle being towed, pedal efforts willbe substantially increased.
