10.Check the operation of warning lights and all bulbs when key is in the "ON"position. WARNING: (DIESEL ENGINE)
To ensure that sufficient vacuum exists within the brake system dur-ing cold weather start-up conditions, it is necessary to run the engine at idle for several seconds after start-ing the engine. SC040A1-F COMBINATION IGNITION SWITCH AND STEERING LOCKTo Start the Engine
o If your Hyundai is equipped with a
manual transaxle, place the shift lever in neutral and depress theclutch pedal fully.
o If your Hyundai has an automatic
transaxle, place the shift lever in "P"(park).
o To start the engine, insert the igni-
tion key and turn it to the "START"position. Release it as soon as the engine starts. Do not hold the key in the "START" position for more than15 seconds.
NOTE: For safety, the engine will not start if the shift lever is not in "P" or "N"Position (automatic transaxle).
!WARNING:
Always wear appropriate shoes when operating your vehicle. Unsuitable shoes (high heels, ski boots, etc.) may interfere with yourability to use the brake and accelera- tor pedal, and the clutch (if installed).

C055B01B-GAT STARTING AND STOPPING THE ENGINE FOR TURBO CHARGERINTERCOOLER (DIESEL EN-GINE)
(1) Do not race the engine or sudden
accelerate the engine immediately after start it. If the engine is cold, allow the engine to idle for severalseconds before it is driven to en- sure sufficient lubrication of the turbo charger unit.
(2) After high speed or extended driv- ing, requiring a heavy engine load,the engine should be allowed to idleabout 1 minute before turning it off. This idle time will allow the turbo charger to cool prior to shutting theengine off.
WARNING:
Do not turn the engine off immedi- ately after it has been subjected to a heavy load. Doing so may causesevere damage to the engine or turbo charger unit.
WARNING:
Be sure that the clutch is fully de- pressed when starting a manualtransaxle vehicle. Otherwise there is the potential to cause damage to the vehicle or injury to someoneinside or outside the vehicle as a result of the forward or backward movement of the vehicle that willoccur if the clutch is not depressed when the vehicle is started. SC060B1-E FUEL ECONOMY The following suggestions are made to assist in achieving the greatest degreeof fuel economy.
o Maintaining a constant check on
fuel consumption will enable the most economical use pattern and driving style to be adopted.
o Avoid using the vehicle for very short journeys if possible, particu-larly when a cold start is involved.
o Ensure that tyre pressures are main- tained at the correct level.
o Use only the recommended grade of fuel.
o Avoid carrying unnecessary weight,
and if a roof rack is in use, removeit as soon as possible after use.
o Anticipate the road and conditions
ahead to enable adjustments in speedto be made smoothly. Avoid heavy acceleration and sharp braking.
o Avoid cruising at unnecessary high speeds.
o Always ensure that the periodic main-
tenance services are performed by a Hyundai authorised repairer at the time and/or mileage intervals specified.
o Use the air conditioning only when necessary.
5. Turn the ignition key to the "Start"
position and release it when the engine starts.

C090A01A-GAT AUTOMATIC TRANSAXLE The highly efficient Hyundai automatic transaxle has four forward speeds andone reverse speed. It has a conven- tional shift pattern as shown in the illustration. At night, with the first posi-tion of the multi-function switch, the appropriate symbol on the shift pattern indicator will be illuminated accordingto the range selected. CAUTION:
Never shift into "R" or "P" positionwhile the vehicle is moving. NOTE: Depress the brake pedal and push the button when shift- ing. Push the button when shift- ing. The selector lever can be shifted freely.
For optimum fuel economy, acceler-ate gradually. The transaxle will auto- matically shift to the second, third andfourth (overdrive) gears.
!
NOTE: The shift points are recommended and should only be used in the ap- propriate driving conditions.
DRIVING YOUR HYUNDAI 2- 11
C090H01A-EAT NOTE:
o The brake pedal should be de-
pressed when shifting from NEU- TRAL to a forward or reversegear.
o The brake pedal fully depressed
in order to move the shift leverfrom the "P" (Park) position to any of the other positions.
o It is always possible to shift from "R", "N", "D", "2", "L" position.
!
C090I04A-EAT
CAUTION:
o Shift into "R", "D" and "P" only when the vehicle has completely stopped.
o Do not accelerate the engine in
reverse or any of the forward posi- tions with the brakes applied.
o Always apply the footbrake when shifting from "P" or "N", to "R", "D", "2" or "L" position.
o Do not use the "P" (Park) position
in place of the parking brake. Al- ways set the parking brake, shift the transaxle into "P" (Park) and turn off the ignition when you leave the vehicle, even momentarily. Never leave the vehicle unattended whilst the engine is running.
o When accelerating from a stop on
a steep hill, the vehicle may have a tendency to roll backwards. Shift- ing the shift lever into 2nd gear will help prevent the vehicle from rolling backwards.
o Check the automatic transaxle fluid
level regularly, and add fluid as necessary.
o See the maintenance schedule for the proper fluid recommendation. FC120D2-E General Operating Instructions
o The button in the selector handle
must be depressed before the se- lector can be moved.
o The engine may only be started
when the selector is at position "P"or "N".
o Ensure that the footbrake is firmly
applied when shifting from "P" or"N" to "D", "2", "L" or "R" and vice versa.
o Always engage the parking brake when the vehicle is unattended,never use the "P" position in place of the parking brake.
o Under normal circumstances, the selector should be placed in the "D"position and the transaxle allowedto select the most ideal ratio for the circumstances. In this position maxi- mum fuel economy will be achieved.
o When descending steep gradients where engine braking is required,the selector should be placed at the"2" or "L" position depending upon the vehicle speed.
