OPERATING THE MANUAL
TRANSAXLEC070A01MC-GATYour Hyundai's manual transaxle has
five forward gears and one reverse gear.
This shift pattern is also imprinted on the
shift knob. The transaxle is fully synchro-
nized in all forward gears so shifting to
either a higher or a lower gear is easily
accomplished.
When shifting into reverse gear, pull the
mis-shift prevention tab and shift into re-
verse gear position.

!
there is the potential to cause damage
to the vehicle or injury to someone
inside or outside the vehicle as a result
of the forward or backward movement
of the vehicle that will occur if the clutch
is not depressed when the vehicle is
started.
4. Turn the ignition key to the "Start" po-
sition and release it when the engine
starts.
After the engine has started, allow the
engine to run for 10 to 20 seconds
prior to placing the vehicle in gear.
The starter should not be operated for
more than 15 seconds at a time. Wait
15-30 seconds between starting at-
tempts to protect the starter from over-
heating.
WARNING:WARNING:
Always fully depress the brake pedal
before and while shifting out of the "P"
Park position into another position to
avoid inadvertent motion of the vehicle
which could injure persons in or around
the car.

o In the event your vehicle leaves the
roadway, do not steer sharply. In-
stead, slow down before pulling back
into the travel lanes.
o Never exceed posted speed limits.
WARNING:
!
o Exercise extreme caution when driv-
ing on a slippery surface. Be espe-
cially careful when braking, accelerat-
ing or shifting gears. On a slippery
surface, an abrupt change in vehicle
speed can cause the drive wheels to
lose traction and the vehicle to go out
of control.
WARNING:
o Always buckle-up! In a collision, an
unbelted occupant is significantly
more likely to be seriously injured or
killed than a properly belted occu-
pant.
o Avoid high speeds when cornering
or turning.
o Do not make quick steering wheel
movements, such as sharp lane
changes or fast, sharp turns.
o The risk of rollover is greatly in-
creased if you lose control of your
vehicle at highway speeds.
o Loss of control often occurs if two or
more wheels drop off the roadway
and the driver oversteers to reenter
the roadway.
C070D03O-AATGood Driving Practiceso Never take the car out of gear and
coast down a hill. This is extremely
hazardous. Always leave the car in
gear.
o Don't "ride" the brakes. This can cause
them to overheat and malfunction. In-
stead, when you are driving down a
long hill, slow down and shift to a lower
gear. When you do this, engine brak-
ing will help slow the car.
o Slow down before shifting to a lower
gear. This will help avoid over-revving
the engine, which can cause damage.
o Slow down when you encounter cross
winds. This gives you much better
control of your car.
o Be sure the car is completely stopped
before you attempt to shift into reverse.
The transaxle can be damaged if you
do not. To shift into reverse, depress
the clutch, move the shift lever to neu-
tral, wait three seconds, then shift to
the reverse position.

speed can cause the drive wheels to
lose traction and the vehicle to go out

o Optimum vehicle performance and
economy is obtained by smoothly de-
pressing and releasing the accelera-
tor pedal.
o Turn the overdrive switch on for good
fuel economy and smooth driving. If
engine braking is needed in the "D"
range or if repeated upshifting and
downshifting between the 3rd and 4th
gear is needed when climbing a gentle
slope, it is recommended that the over-
drive switch be turned off. Turn the
overdrive switch back on immediately
afterward.
C090N07A-AATGood Driving Practiceso Never move the gear selector lever
from "P" or "N" to any other position
with the accelerator pedal depressed.
o Never move the gear selector lever
into "P" when the vehicle is in motion.
o Be sure the car is completely stopped
before you attempt to shift into "R" or
"D".
o Never take the car out of gear and
coast down a hill. This may be ex-
tremely hazardous. Always leave the
car in gear when moving.
o Do not "ride" the brakes. This can
cause them to overheat and malfunc-
tion. Instead, when you are driving
down a long hill, slow down and shift
to a lower gear. When you do this,
engine braking will help slow the car.
o Slow down before shifting to a lower
gear. Otherwise, the lower gear may
not be engaged.
o Always use the parking brake. Do not
depend on placing the transaxle in "P"
to keep the car from moving.

o Driving through water may get the
brakes wet. They can also get wet
when the car is washed. Wet brakes
can be dangerous! Your car will not
stop as quickly if the brakes are wet.
Wet brakes may cause the car to pull
to one side. To dry the brakes, apply
the brakes lightly until the braking ac-
tion returns to normal, taking care to
keep the car under control at all times.
If the braking action does not return to
normal, stop as soon as it is safe to do
so and call your Hyundai dealer for
assistance.
o Don't coast down hills with the car out
of gear. This is extremely hazardous.
Keep the car in gear at all times, use
the brakes to slow down, then shift to
a lower gear so that engine braking
will help you maintain a safe speed.
o Don't "ride" the brake pedal. Resting
your foot on the brake pedal while
driving can be dangerous because it
can result in the brakes overheating
and losing their effectiveness. It also
increases the wear of the brake com-
ponents.o If a tire goes flat while you are driving,
apply the brakes gently and keep the
car pointed straight ahead while you
slow down. When you are moving
slowly enough for it to be safe to do so,
pull off the road and stop in a safe
place.
o If your car is equipped with an auto-
matic transaxle, don't let your car creep
forward. To avoid creeping forward,
keep your foot firmly on the brake pedal
when the car is stopped.
o Use caution when parking on a hill.
Firmly engage the parking brake and
place the gear selector lever in "P"
(automatic transaxle) or in first or re-
verse gear (manual transaxle). If your
car is facing downhill, turn the front
wheels into the curb to help keep the
car from rolling. If your car is facing
uphill, turn the front wheels away from
the curb to help keep the car from
rolling. If there is no curb or if it is
required by other conditions to keep
the car from rolling, block the wheels.
GOOD BRAKING PRAC-
TICES!
C130A02A-AAT
WARNING:
o Whenever leaving vehicle or park-
ing, always set the parking brake as
far as possible and fully engage the
vehicle's transaxle into the park po-
sition. Vehicles not fully engaged in
park with the parking brake set are
at risk for moving inadvertently and
injuring yourself or others.
o All vehicles should always have the
parking brake fully engaged when
parking to avoid inadvertent move-
ment of the car which can injure
occupants or pedestrians.
o Nothing should be carried on top of
the shelf panel behind the rear seat.
If there were an accident or a sudden
stop, such objects could move for-
ward and cause damage to the ve-
hicle or injure the occupants.
o After being parked, check to be sure
the parking brake is not engaged and
that the parking brake indicator light is
out before driving away.

DRIVING FOR ECONOMYC140A02A-AATYou can save fuel and get more miles
from your car if you follow these sugges-
tions:
o Drive smoothly. Accelerate at a mod-
erate rate. Don't make "jack-rabbit"
starts or full-throttle shifts and maintain
a steady cruising speed. Don't race
between stoplights. Try to adjust your
speed to that of the other traffic so you
don't have to change speeds unnec-
essarily. Avoid heavy traffic whenever
possible. Always maintain a safe dis-
tance from other vehicles so you can
avoid unnecessary braking. This also
reduces brake wear.
o Drive at a moderate speed. The faster
you drive, the more fuel your car uses.
Driving at a moderate speed, espe-
cially on the highway, is one of the
most effective ways to reduce fuel con-
sumption.
o Don't "ride" the brake or clutch pedal.
This can increase fuel consumption
and also increase wear on these com-
ponents. In addition, driving with your
foot resting on the brake pedal may
cause the brakes to overheat, which
reduces their effectiveness and may
lead to more serious consequences. o Under some conditions your parking
brake can freeze in the engaged posi-
tion. This is most likely to happen when
there is an accumulation of snow or ice
around or near the rear brakes or if the
brakes are wet. If there is a risk that the
parking brake may freeze, apply it only
temporarily while you put the gear
selector lever in "P" (automatic) or in
first or reverse gear (manual transaxle)
and block the rear wheels so the car
cannot roll. Then release the parking
brake.
o Do not hold the vehicle on the upgrade
with the accelerator pedal. This can
cause the transaxle to overheat. Al-
ways use the brake pedal or parking
brake.o Take care of your tires. Keep them
inflated to the recommended pressure.
Incorrect inflation, either too much or
too little, results in unnecessary tire
wear. Check the tire pressures at least
once a month.
o Be sure that the wheels are aligned
correctly. Improper alignment can re-
sult from hitting curbs or driving too fast
over irregular surfaces. Poor align-
ment causes faster tire wear and may
also result in other problems as well as
greater fuel consumption.
o Keep your car in good condition. For
better fuel economy and reduced main-
tenance costs, maintain your car in
accordance with the maintenance
schedule in Section 5. If you drive your
car in severe conditions, more fre-
quent maintenance is required (see
Section 5 for details).
o Keep your car clean. For maximum
service, your Hyundai should be kept
clean and free of corrosive materials.
It is especially important that mud, dirt,
ice, etc. not be allowed to accumulate
on the underside of the car. This extra
weight can result in increased fuel
consumption and also contribute to
corrosion.
