DRIVING YOUR HYUNDAI 2- 15
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.
