2DRIVING YOUR HYUNDAI
16EFFECTIVE BRAKING
SC140A2-E Braking system performance and fric- tion material life are greatly affected by the driving style adopted. The following suggestions are made to assist inachieving the best results from the braking system.
o Anticipate the road and conditions ahead in order that heavy braking may be avoided.
o When descending long gradients, use the engine to assist in retarding thevehicle to minimise the possibility ofbrake fade occurring.
o When trailer towing, ensure that the
trailer brakes function correctly anduse engine braking to assist the vehicle braking system.
o Use only genuine Hyundai replace- ment brake pads and shoes to en-sure consistent friction characteris- tics and wear rates.
o After driving through deep water (e.g. fording), the brakes may becomewet and performance reduced. Al-ways check brake efficiency after emerging from the water and dry the brakes by lightly depressing the brakepedal several times whilst driving slowly.
C310B01JM-AAT ESP ON/OFF Mode When the ESP is operating, the ESP indicator in the instrument cluster willblink. If you turn the system off by pressing the ESP switch, the ESP-OFF indica-tor will come on and stay on. In the ESP-OFF mode, the stability control will be deactivated. Adjust your drivingaccordingly. To turn the system back on, press the switch again. The ESP- OFF indicator should go off. NOTE: The ESP mode will automatically be turned ON after the engine is turnedoff and restarted.
C310D02JM-EAT Indicators and Warning The indicators should illuminate when the ignition key is turned ON or STARTbut should go out after approximately 3 seconds. If the indicators do not illuminate, or theESP-OFF indicator does not go out after approximately 3 seconds, have the vehicle checked by a Hyundaiauthorised repairer. Should there be any unusual conditions in the device whilst driving, ESP-OFF indicator illuminates as a warning. If ESP-OFF indicator illuminates, pullyour car to a safe place and stop the engine. Then, start the engine again to check ifthe ESP-OFF indicator goes out. If the indicator remains lit even after the engine has been started, have your car checked by a Hyundai authorised re- pairer.

!
SD020A1-E Seek assistance from the nearest Hyundai authorised repairer with regard to the method of ignition and fuel sys- tem diagnosis.
WARNING:
If the engine refuses to start, noattempt should be made to push ortow start the vehicle. Vehicles with automatic transaxle or fuel injec- tion will not be able to be started in this manner since no drive is trans- mitted through the automatictransaxle whilst the engine is not running, and in the case of fuel injected derivatives, the fuel pumpwill not operate under tow start conditions. In addition, if the ve- hicle is equipped with an exhaustcatalyst, damage to the catalyst may result if the vehicle is tow started. SD020B1-E If the Engine Cannot be Cranked
D010C01A-EATIf Engine Turns Over Normally but Does Not Start
1. Check fuel level.
2. With the key in the off position,Check all connectors at ignition coils and spark plugs. Reconnect any that may be disconnected or loose.
3. Check the fuel line in the engine room.
4. If engine still refuses to start, call a Hyundai authorised repairer or seek other qualified assistance.
1. If the vehicle is fitted with manual
transaxle, ensure that the clutch pedal is depressed whilst cranking the engine. If the vehicle is fitted with automatic transaxle, ensurethat the transaxle selector is at the "P" or"N" position.
2. Check the battery terminals and connections to ensure that theseare clean and also tight.
3. If the ignition warning lights dim when the engine is cranked and the batteryterminals have been checked, a dis- charged battery is indicated. D010B01GK

SD070G1-E 5. Raising the Car
After inserting a wrench bar into the wheel nut wrench, install the wrenchbar into the jack as shown in the draw- ing. As the jack begins to raise the vehicle, double check that it is properlypositioned and will not slip. If the jack is on soft ground or sand, it may be necessary to place a stout piece oftimber under the base of the jack to prevent it from sinking. Raise the car high enough so that thefully inflated spare tyre can be in- stalled.
Wrench bar
!WARNING:
Do not get under the car when it is supported by the jack! The jack is solely designed for wheel chang- ing and is not intended to supportthe vehicle for other purposes. The use of purpose designed supports is necessary whilst the vehicle israised and the operator is required to get underneath.
Loosen the wheel nuts and remove them with your fingers. slide the wheel off the studs and lay it flat so it cannot roll away. To put the wheel on the hub,pick up the spare tyre, line up the holes with the studs and slide the wheel onto them. If this is difficult, tip the wheelslightly and get the top hole in the wheel lined up with the top stud. Then jiggle the wheel back and forth until thewheel can be slid over the other studs.

FUSIBLE LINKS
SG200A1-E The fusible link prevents damage to the wiring harness in the event of an electrical system malfunction. Failureof a fusiblelink is indicative of a seri- ous overload condition having oc- curred and therefore the electricalsystem should be checked by a Hyundai authorised repairer before a replacement link is fitted. WARNING:
Under no circumstances should a
fusible link be replaced with any-thing other than a new link of thesame rating. The use of higher rated links or other means of con- necting the circuit will create apotential fire hazard.
