WARNING:
o Do not install a child restraint seat at the center of the rear seat using the vehicle's outboard rear seat ISOFIX anchors. The ISOFIX an-chors are only provided for the left and right outboard rear seating positions. Do not misuse theISOFIX anchors by attempting to attach a child restraint seat in the middle of the rear seat to the ISOFIXanchors. In a crash, the child re- straint seat ISOFIX attachments may not be strong enough to se-cure the child restraint seat prop- erly in the center of the rear seat and may break, causing seriousinjury or death.!

1. To engage the child restraint seat to the ISOFIX anchor, insert the child restraint seat latch into the ISOFIX anchor. Listen for the audible "click" sound.
To secure the child restraint seat
2. Connect the tether strap hook to the
child restraint hook holder and tighten to secure the seat. Refer to "Secur-ing a Child Restraint System with the Tether Anchorage System" on page 1-31.
! CAUTION:
Do not allow the rear seat belt web- bing to get scratched or pinched by the ISOFIX-seat latch and ISOFIX anchor during the installation.
o When using the vehicle’s “ISOFIX” system to install a child restraint system in the rear seat, all unused vehicle rear seat belt metal latchplates or tabs must be latched securely in their seat belt buckles and the seat belt webbing must beretracted behind the child restraint to prevent the child from reaching and taking hold of unretracted seat
belts. Unlatched metal latch plates or tabs may allow the child to reach the unretracted seat beltswhich may result in strangulation and a serious injury or death to the child in the child restraint.
o Do not mount more than one child restraint to a child restraint loweranchorage point. The improperincreased load may cause the an- chorage points or tether anchor to break, causing serious injury ordeath.
o Attach the ISOFIX or ISOFIX-com-
patible child restraint seat only tothe appropriate locations shown in the illustration.
o Always follow the installation and use instructions provided by themanufacturer of the child restraint.

B260P02Y-GAT
ABS Service Reminder Indicator (SRI)(If Installed)
When the key is turned to the "ON" position, the Anti-Lock Brake System will come on and then go off in a fewseconds. If the ABS SRI remains on, comes on while driving, or does not come on when the key is turned to the"ON" position, this indicates that there may be a problem with the ABS. If this occurs, have your vehiclechecked by your Hyundai dealer as soon as possible. The normal braking system will still be operational, butwithout the assistance of the anti-lock brake system. B260C01A-AAT
O/D OFF Indicator (Automatic transaxleonly) (If Installed)
When the overdrive switch is turned on, the overdrive off indicator will go out. This amber indicator will be illumi- nated when the overdrive switch isturned off. B260D01A-AAT
Turn Signal Indicator Lights
The blinking green arrows on the in- strument panel show the direction indi- cated by the turn signals. If the arrow comes on but does not blink, blinksmore rapidly than normal, or does not illuminate at all, a malfunction in the turn signal system is indicated. Yourdealer should be consulted for repairs.
WARNING:
If both ABS SRI and Parking Brake/ Brake fluid level warning lights re- main "ON" or come on while driv-ing, there may be a problem with E.B.D (Electronic Brake Force Dis- tribution).If this occurs, avoid sudden stops and have your vehicle checked by your Hyundai dealer as soon aspossible.

DRIVING YOUR HYUNDAI 2- 13
ing action returns to normal, taking care to keep the car under control at
all times. If the braking action doesnot return to normal, stop as soon as it is safe to do so and call your Hyundai dealer for assistance.
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 pedal
while 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 tire goes flat while you are driving, apply the brakes gently andkeep the car pointed straight ahead while you slow down. When you are
moving 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. o Use caution when parking on a hill.
Engage the parking brake and place
the gear selector lever in "P" (auto-matic transaxle) or in first or reverse gear (manual transaxle). If your car is facing downhill, turn the frontwheels into the curb to help keep the car from rolling. If your car is facing
uphill, turn the front wheels awayfrom the curb to help keep the car from rolling. If there is no curb or if it is requiredby other conditions to keep the car from rolling, block the wheels.
o Under some conditions your park-
ing brake can freeze in the engagedposition. This is most likely to hap- pen when there is an accumulationof snow or ice around or near the rear brakes or if the brakes are wet. If there is a risk that the parkingbrake may freeze, apply it only tem- porarily while you put the gear se- lector lever in "P" (automatic) or infirst or reverse gear (manual transaxle) and block the rear wheels so the car cannot roll. Then releasethe parking brake. C120A03A-AAT 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, ABS will increase 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 conditions are normal and indicate that theanti-lock brake system (Electronic Stability Program) is functioning properly.
o During ABS (ESP) operation, a slight pulsation may be felt in the
o Do not hold the vehicle on the up-
grade with the accelerator pedal. Thiscan cause the transmission to over-heat. Always use the brake pedal or parking brake.
