WARNING:
o Keep the cruise control ON/OFF switch
off when not using the cruise control
to avoid inadvertently setting a speed.
o Use the cruise control system only
when traveling on open highways in
good weather.
o Do not use the cruise control when it
may not be safe to keep the car at a
constant speed, for instance, driving
in heavy or varying traffic, or on slip-
pery (rainy, icy or snow-covered) or
winding roads or over 6% up-hill or
down-hill roads.
o Pay particular attention to the driving
conditions whenever using the cruise
control system.
o During normal cruise control opera-
tion, when the "SET" switch is acti-
vated or reactivated after applying
the brakes, the cruise control will
energize after approximately 3 sec-
onds. This delay is normal.

o Fading - As your car moves away from
the radio station, the signal will weaken
and sound will begin to fade. When this
occurs, we suggest that you select an-
other stronger station.
o Flutter/Static - Weak FM signals or large
obstructions between the transmitter
and your radio can disturb the signal
causing static or fluttering noises to
occur. Reducing the treble level may
lessen this effect until the disturbance
clears.
B750B05Y-AATUsing a cellular phone or a two-way
radioWhen a cellular phone is used inside the
vehicle, noise may be produced from the
audio equipment. This does not mean that
something is wrong with the audio equip-
ment. In such a case, use the cellular
phone at a place as far as possible from the
audio equipment.
WARNING:
Hyundai recommends that you never
use a cell phone while driving. This could
result in loss of control, and an accident
that may cause death, serious injury, or
property damage. You must stop at a
safe place to use a cellular phone.NOTE:Some states and cities have regulations
prohibiting the use of cell phones while
driving. You should be aware of the spe-
cific requirements in your area.
B750A04L
B750A05L
o Station Swapping - As an 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 sig-
nal. If this occurs, select another station
with a stronger signal.
o Multi-Path Cancellation - Radio signals
being received from several directions
can cause distortion or fluttering. This
can be caused by a direct and reflected
signal from the same station, or by sig-
nals from two stations with close fre-
quencies. If this occurs, select another
station until the condition has passed.

WARNING: ENGINE EXHAUST CAN BE DANGEROUS!
C010A03A-AATEngine exhaust fumes can be extremely dangerous. If, at any time, you smell exhaust fumes inside the vehicle, open the
windows immediately.
o Do not inhale exhaust fumes.
Exhaust fumes contain carbon monoxide, a colorless, odorless gas that can cause unconsciousness and death by
asphyxiation.
o Be sure the exhaust system does not leak.
The exhaust system should be checked whenever the vehicle is raised to change the oil or for any other purpose. If you
hear a change in the sound of the exhaust or if you drive over something that strikes the underneath side of the car, have
the exhaust system checked as soon as possible by your Hyundai dealer.
o Do not run the engine in an enclosed area.
Letting the engine idle in your garage, even with the garage door open, is a hazardous practice. Never run the engine
in your garage any longer than it takes to start the engine and back the car out.
o Avoid idling the engine for prolonged periods with people inside the car.
If it is necessary to idle the engine for a prolonged period with people inside the car, be sure to do so only in an open area
with the air intake set at "Fresh" and fan operating at one of the higher speeds so fresh air is drawn into the interior.
If you must drive with the trunk lid open because you are carrying objects that make this necessary:
1. Close all windows.
2. Open side vents.
3. Set the air intake control at "Fresh", the air flow control at "Floor" or "Face" and the fan at one of the higher speeds.
To assure proper operation of the ventilation system, be sure the ventilation air intakes located just in front of the windshield
are kept clear of snow, ice, leaves or other obstructions.

C090N06O-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 extremely
hazardous. Always leave the car in gear
when moving.
o Do not "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 braking
will help slow the car.
o Slow down before shifting to a lower
gear. Otherwise, the lower gear may not
be engaged.
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.
C090J01TG-GATSHIFT LOCK RELEASEIf you cannot move the shift lever from the
"P" (Park) position to any other position
with the brake pedal fully depressed and
the ignition key in the "ON" position, push
the shift lock release button down with a
thin object such as a flat-head screwdriver.
Then, with the brake pedal depressed,
move the shift lever to the desired position,
and then the shift lock release button will
automatically return to its original position
after shifting from the "P" (Park) position.
C090J01TG
If you need to use the shift lock release, it
could mean your car is developing a prob-
lem. Have the car checked by your Hyundai
dealer.o Always use the parking brake. Do not
depend on placing the transaxle in "P"
to keep the car from moving.
o Exercise extreme caution when driving
on a slippery surface. Be especially
careful when braking, accelerating 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.
o Optimum vehicle performance and
economy is obtained by smoothly de-
pressing and releasing the accelerator
pedal.

Setting the driver's position1) Be sure the parking brake is engaged.
2) Move the accelerator and brake pedals
to the front most position by pushing the
" " portion of the switch.
3) Adjust the seat position and the steer-
ing wheel angle properly.
4) Move the pedals toward you until you
can fully depress the brake pedal by
pushing the " " portion of the switch.
5) Depress the pedals a few times to get
used to the feel after adjusting.
WARNING:
o Adjust the pedals after parking the
vehicle on level ground. Never at-
tempt to adjust the pedals while the
vehicle is moving.
o Never adjust the pedals with your foot
on the accelerator pedal as this may
result in increasing the engine speed
and acceleration.
o Make sure that you can fully depress
the brake pedal before driving. Other-
wise, you may not be able to hold down
the brake pedal firmly in an emer-
gency stop. 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.
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.
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 backward. Do not attempt
this procedure if people or objects are
anywhere near the vehicle. During
the rocking operation the vehicle may
suddenly move forward of backward
as it becomes unstuck, causing in-
jury to nearby people or damage to
objects.
