C050A01A-AAT STARTING
C050A01E
WARNING:
Never run the engine in a closed or poorly ventilated area any longerthan is needed to move your car in or out of the area. The carbon mon- oxide gas emitted is odorless andcan cause serious injury or death. C050B01A-AAT Normal Conditions: The Starting Procedure:
1. Insert key, and fasten the seat belt.
2. Depress the clutch pedal fully and
place the gearshift lever (manual transaxle) in neutral or the selector lever (automatic transaxle) in "P" (park) position.
3. After turning the ignition key to the "ON" position, make certain all warn-ing lights and gauges are functioningproperly before starting the engine.
WARNING:
Be sure that the clutch is fully de-pressed when starting a manualtransaxle vehicle. Your manual transaxle equipped vehicle will not start unless the clutch pedal is fullydepressed. On a manual transaxle equipped vehicle that can be started without depressing the clutch, thereis the potential to cause damage to the vehicle or injury to someone inside or outside the vehicle as aresult of the forward or backward movement of the vehicle that will occur if the clutch is not depressedwhen the vehicle is started.

C070A03A-AAT OPERATING THE MANUAL TRANSAXLE Your Hyundai's manual transaxle has a conventional shift pattern. This shift pattern is imprinted on the shift knob. The transaxleis fully synchronized in all forward gears so shifting to either a higher or a lower gear is easily accomplished.
4. Turn the ignition key to the "Start"
position and release it when the
engine starts. After the engine hasstarted, allow the engine to run for 10 to 20 seconds prior to placing the
vehicle in gear. The starter shouldnot be operated for more than 15 seconds at a time. Wait 15-30 sec- onds between starting attempts toprotect the starter from overheating.

!WARNING:
Nothing should be carried on top of the shelf panel behind the rear seat. If there were an accident or a sud-den stop, such objects could move forward and cause damage to the vehicle or injure the occupants.
o After being parked, check to be sure the hand brake is not engaged and that the hand brake indicator light is out before driving away.
o Driving through water may get the brakes wet. They can also get wetwhen the car is washed. Wet brakes can be dangerous! Your car will notstop 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 action returns to normal, taking care to keep the car undercontrol at all times. If the braking action does not return to normal, stop as soon as it is safe to do soand call your Hyundai dealer for assistance.
C130A01A-DAT GOOD BRAKING PRACTICES
HTB217-D
ZC130A1-DOverdrive Switch
When the overdrive switch is turned on, the transaxle will automatically upshift to the second, third and over-drive gears. When the overdrive switch is turned off, the transaxle will not upshift to the overdrive gear. For nor-mal driving, the selector lever should be left in the "D" position and the overdrive switch turned on.If you need to accelerate rapidly, press the accelerator pedal all the way to the floor. The transaxle will automaticallyshift to a lower gear, depending on the vehicle speed and load. o Don't coast down hills with the car
out of gear. This is extremely haz- ardous. Keep the car in gear at alltimes, use the brakes to slow down, then shift to a lower gear so that engine braking will help you main-tain a safe speed.
o Don't "ride" the brake pedal. Rest-
ing your foot on the brake pedalwhile driving can be dangerous be- cause it can result in the brakes overheating and losing their effec-tiveness. It also increases the wear of the brake components.
o If a tyre goes flat while you are driving, apply the brakes gently andkeep the car pointed straight ahead while you slow down. When you aremoving 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 carcreep forward. To avoid creepingforward, keep your foot on the brake pedal when the car is stopped.

!WARNING:
Your ABS (ESP) will not prevent accidents due to improper or dan- gerous driving maneuvers. Eventhough vehicle control is improvedduring emergency braking, alwaysmaintain a safe distance betweenyou and objects ahead. Vehicle speeds should always be reduced during extreme road conditions.The braking distance for carsequipped with an anti-lock brakingsystem may be longer than for thosewithout it in the following road con- ditions.
o Driving on rough, gravel or snow- covered roads.
o Driving with tyre chains installed.
o Driving on roads where the road surface is pitted or has different surface height.
These roads should be driven at reduced speeds. The safety features of an ABS (ESP) equipped vehicleshould not be tested by high speeddriving or cornering. This could en-danger the safety of yourself or oth-ers.
C120A03A-DAT ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM (If installed) The Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) is designed to prevent wheel lock-up during sudden braking or on hazard-ous road surfaces. The ABS control module monitors the wheel speed and controls the pressure applied to eachbrake. Thus, in emergency situations or on slick roads, your ABS will in- crease vehicle control during braking. NOTE:
o A click sound may be heard in the
engine compartment when the ve- hicle begins to move after the en-gine is started. These conditionsare normal and indicate that the anti-lock brake system (Electronic Stability Program) is functioningproperly.
o During ABS (ESP) operation, a slight pulsation may be felt in thebrake pedal when the brakes are applied. Also, a noise may be heard in the engine compartment whiledriving. These conditions are nor-mal and indicate that the anti-lockbrake system (ESP) is functioning properly.
o Use caution when parking on a hill.
Engage the hand brake and place the gear selector lever in "P" (automatic transaxle) or in first or reverse 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.
o Under some conditions your hand brake can freeze in the engaged position. This is most likely to hap- pen 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 hand brake may freeze, apply it only temporarily while you put the gear selector lever in "P" (automatic) or in first or re- verse gear (manual transaxle) and block the rear wheels so the car cannot roll. Then release the hand brake.
o Do not hold the vehicle on the up- grade with the accelerator pedal. This can cause the transmission to over- heat. Always use the brake pedal or hand brake.

C140A01A-DAT DRIVING FOR ECONOMY You can save fuel and get more kilo- meters from your car if you followthese suggestions:
o Drive smoothly. Accelerate at a
moderate rate. Don't make "kanga- roo" starts or full-throttle shifts. 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 tochange speeds unnecessarily. Avoid heavy traffic whenever possible. Always maintain a safe distancefrom 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 yourcar uses. Driving at a moderatespeed, especially on the highway, is one of the most effective ways to reduce fuel consumption.
o Don't "ride" the brake. This can in- crease fuel consumption and alsoincrease wear on this components. o In addition, driving with your foot
resting on the brake pedal may causethe brakes to overheat, which re-duces their effectiveness and may
lead to more serious consequences.
o Take care of your tyres. Keep them inflated to the recommended pres-sure. Incorrect inflation, either too much or too little, results in unnec-essary tyre wear. Check the tyre pressures at least once a month.
o Be sure that the wheels are aligned correctly. Improper alignment canresult from hitting curbs or driving too fast over irregular surfaces Pooralignment causes faster tyre wear and may also result in other prob- lems as well as greater fuel con-sumption.
o Keep your car in good condition. For
better fuel economy and reducedmaintenance costs, maintain your car in accordance with the mainte- nance schedule in Section 5. If youdrive your car in severe conditions, more frequent maintenance is re- quired (see Section 5 for details).
C310D01JM-AAT Indicators and Warning The indicators should illuminate when the ignition key is turned to ON orSTART but should go out after three seconds. If the indicators do not illuminate, or theESP or ESP-OFF indicator does not go out after 3 seconds, have the vehicle checked by an authorized dealer. Should there be any unusual conditions in the device while driving, ESP-OFFindicator illuminates as a warning. If ESP-OFF indicator illuminates, pull your car to a safe place and stop theengine. Then, start the engine again to check if the ESP-OFF indicator goes out. If the indicator remains lit even after the engine has been started, have your carchecked by an authorized Hyundai dealer.

C150A01A-AAT SMOOTH CORNERING Avoid braking or gear changing in cor- ners, especially when roads are wet. Ideally, corners should always be takenunder gentle acceleration. If you follow these suggestions, tire wear will be held to a minimum.
o Use your air conditioning sparingly.
The air conditioning system is oper-ated by engine power so your fueleconomy is reduced when you use it.
C160A01A-DAT WINTER DRIVING The more severe weather conditions of winter result in greater wear and other problems. To minimise the prob-lems of winter driving, you should fol- low these suggestions: C160B01A-DAT Snowy or Icy Conditions To drive your vehicle in deep snow, it may be necessary to use snow tyres orto install tyre chains on your tyres. If snow tyre are needed, it is necessary to select tyres equivalent in size andtype to the original equipment tires. Failure to do so may adversely affect the safety and handling of your car.Furthermore, speeding, rapid accel- eration, sudden brake applications, and sharp turns are potentially very haz-ardous practices. During deceleration, use engine brak- ing to the fullest extent. Sudden brakeapplications on snowy or icy roads may cause skids to occur. You need to keep sufficient distance between thevehicle in operation in front and your vehicle. Also, apply the brake gently. It should be noted that installing tyrechains on the tyre will provide a greater driving force, but will not prevent side skids. NOTE: Tyre chains are not legal in all states. Check state laws before fitting tyre chains.
o Keep your car clean all over. 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 con- sumption and also contribute to cor- rosion.
o Travel lightly. Don't carry unneces- sary weight in your car. Weight is an enemy of good fuel economy.
o Don't let the engine idle longer than
necessary. If you are waiting (and not in traffic), turn off your engine and restart only when you're ready to go.
o Remember, your Hyundai does not require extended warm-up. As soon as the engine is running smoothly, you can drive away. In very cold weather, however, give your engine a slightly longer warm-up period.
o Don't "labour" or "over-rev" the en- gine. Labouring is driving too slowly in too high a gear resulting in the engine bucking. If this happens to you, shift to a lower gear. Over- revving is racing the engine beyond its safe limit. This can be avoided by shifting at the recommended speeds.
