3BEFORE DRIVING YOUR VEHICLE SAFETY CHECKS
!
B010A01P-GAT Be sure you know your vehicle and its equipment and how to use it safely. B010B01P-GAT Before entering the vehicle
o Check that windows, mirrors and
lights are clean.
o Check if any tire is low or flat.
o Look for fluid leaks.
o Check that area is clear if you're about to back up.
B010C03P-GAT After entering the vehicle
o Lock all doors.
o The driver and passengers are wear- ing properly adjusted seat belts.
o The head restraints are properly adjusted, if so equipped.
o Adjust inside and outside mirrors.
o Check warning lights for correct
operation, with the ignition key in the position "ON".
o Check all gauges, for normal opera- tion. 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 the en-gine. NOTE: Fluid levels, such as engine oil, engine coolant, brake fluid, and windshield washer fluid, should be checked daily and/or weekly, orwhenever you refuel. Further details are described in the "CONSUMER INFORMATION" sec-tion.
Biodiesel Commercially supplied biodiesel blends of no more than 5% biodiesel, com- monly known as "B5 biodiesel" may beused in your vehicle if it meets EN 14214 or equivalent specifications. (EN stands for "European Norm"). The useof biofuels made from rapeseed methyl ester (RME), fatty acid methyl ester (FAME), vegetable oil methyl ester(VME) etc. or mixing diesel with biodiesel will cause increased wear or damage to the engine and fuel system.Repair or replacement of worn or dam- aged components due to the use of non approved fuels will not be covered bythe manufactures warranty.
CAUTION:
o Never use any fuel, whether diesel or B5 biodiesel that fails to meetthe latest petroleum industry speci-fication.
o Never use any fuel additives or
treatments that are not recom-mended or approved by the ve- hicle manufacturer.

B350B01A-AAT Windshield Washer Operation
To use the windshield washer, pull the wiper/washer lever toward the steer- ing wheel. When the washer lever isoperated, the wipers automatically make two passes across the wind- shield. The washer continues to oper-ate until the lever is released. HSRFL2116
Windshield wipers 1.OFF
2.INT : The
interval between wipers
can be varied from 2 to 10 seconds by turning.
3.LOW : Speed operation the interval adjuster switch.
4.HIGH : Speed operation the interval
adjuster switch.
NOTE:
o Before operating the wipers in cold weather, check to be sure that the wiper blades are not frozen to the windshield. Attempting to operate the wipers while the blades arefrozen to the windshield could cause the motor to burn out.
o If the wipers stop during opera-
tion because of ice or some otherobstruction on the windshield, the wiper motor could burn outeven if the wiper switch is turned off. If this occurs, promptly stop the vehicle, turn off the ignitionswitch, and clean the windshield to allow proper wiper operation.
o Do not use the wipers when the
windshield is dry:doing so couldscratch the windshield and wear the blades prematurely.
WINDSHIELD WIPER AND WASHER SWITCH
C180A02P-GAT The windshield wiper and washer switch can be operated with the ignition switch at the "ON" or "START" position. Movethe switch to operate the windshield wipers or spray the washer fluid. HSRFL2111

B350C01P-AAT Adjustable Intermittent Wiper Operation (If installed)
To use the intermittent wiper feature, place the wiper switch in the "INT" position. With the switch in this posi- tion, the interval between wipes can bevaried by turning the interval adjuster barrel. HSRFL2117
NOTE:
o Do not operate the washer more
than 15 seconds at a time or when the fluid reservoir is empty.
o In icy or freezing weather, be sure the wiper blades are not fro-zen to the glass prior to operatingthe wipers.
o In areas where water freezes in
winter, use windshield washerantifreeze.
Mist Wiper Operation If a single wipe is desired in mist, push the windshield wiper and washer controllever upwards. HSRFL2119 C190A02P-GAT Tail gate window wiper and washer switch (Minibus/Van)

INSTRUMENTS AND CONTROLS
23HEADLIGHT LEVELING DEVICE SYSTEM
C210A05P-GAT (If installed) To adjust the headlight beam level ac- cording to the number of the passen- gers and the loading weight in the cargo,turn the beam leveling switch. The higher the number of the switch position, the lower the headlight beamlevel. Always keep the headlight beam at the proper leveling position, or headlightsmay dazzle other road users. Listed chart is the examples of proper switch settings. HSRFL210
3.INT: The interval between wipes op-
erates every 1.5 seconds inter-mittently. (if installed)
4.ON : The rear window wiper starts
to operate continuously.
5. : The washer fluid will be sprayed onto the rear window and thewiper operates while the rearwindow wiper barrel is placed in this position.
Do not operate the washer continu- ously for more than 15 seconds or when the fluid reservoir is empty; this could damage the system. Do not op-erate the wiper when the window is dry; this can result in scratching as well as premature wiper blade wear.For the reason stated above,do not operate the washer when the washer fluid reservoir is empty. NOTE:
o Before operating the wiper in cold
weather, check to be sure that the wiper blade is not frozen tothe rear window. Attempting to operate the wiper while the blade is frozen to the rear window couldcause the motor to burn out.
o If the wiper stops during opera-
tion because of ice or some otherobstruction on the rear window, the wiper motor could burn out even if the wiper switch is turnedoff. If this occurs, promptly stop the vehicle, turn off the ignition switch, and clean the rear win-dow to allow proper wiper opera- tion.
o Do not use the wiper when the rear window is dry; doing so couldscratch the rear window and wear the blade prematurely.

3 STARTING AND OPERATING

D180C01P-GAT Battery The capacity of the battery is reduced at low temperatutes.This is an inevitable result of its chemi- cal and physical properties. This is why a very cold battery, particularlyone that is not fully charged anyway, will only deliver a fraction of the starter current which is normally available.It is recommended that you have the battery checked by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer before the start ofcold weather and, if necessary, have it charged. This not only ensures reliable starting,but a battery which is kept fully charged also has a longer life. C160G02A-AAT To Keep Locks from Freezing To keep the locks from freezing, squirt an approved de-icer fluid or glycerineinto the key opening. If a lock is cov- ered with ice, squirt it with an approved de-icing fluid to remove the ice. If thelock is frozen internally, you may be able to thaw it out by using a heated key. Handle the heated key with careto avoid burning your fingers. NOTE: The proper temperature for using the immobilizer key is from -40°C to 80°C. If you heat the immobilizer key over 80°C to open the frozenlock, it may cause damage to the transponder in its head.
D180G01P-GAT Door locks To prevent the door locks from freez- ing up, the lock cylinders should be masked with tape, etc., when washingthe vehicle in cold weather to prevent the entrance of water.
D180D01P-GAT Washer fluid To ensure proper operation of the wind- shield or rear window at low tempera-tures, anti-freeze should be added to the washer fluid at a rate of one part antifreeze to one part water. D180E01P-GAT Wiper blades Before operating the wipers, check the wiper blades to confirm that they arenot frozen to the windshield or tailgate. If the blades are frozen to the wind- shield or tailgate, do not operate thewipers until the ice has melted and the blades are freed. D180F01P-GAT Ventilation slots The ventilation slots in the headlight housing on the assistant seat side should be brushed clear after a heavysnowfall so that the operation of the heating and ventilation systems will not be impaired.
