B080F01S-AAT Seat Cushion Height Adjustment (Driver's Seat Only) (If Installed) To raise or lower the front part of the seat cushion, turn the front knob for- ward or rearward. To raise or lower therear part of the seat cushion, turn the rear knob forward or rearward.HTB027
B080E01O-AAT Lumbar Support Control
(Driver's Seat Only) (If Installed)
To adjust the lumbar support, turn the handle on the outboard or left side ofthe seat. To increase the amount of lumbar support, pull the lever forward. To decrease it, push the lever towardthe rear.
o Do not operate the vehicle with the headrests removed as severe in- jury to an occupant may occur in the event of an accident. Head- rests may provide protectionagainst severe neck injuries when properly adjusted.
o Do not adjust the headrest posi-
tion of the driver’s seat while thevehicle is in motion.
B083D01NF-AAT Active Headrests (If Installed) The active headrest is designed to move forward and upward during a rear impact. This helps to prevent the driver's and front passenger's head from mov-ing backward and thus helps prevent neck injuries. HNF2041-1

DRIVING YOUR HYUNDAI 2- 19
C170A01A-AAT HIGHER SPEED MOTORING Pre-Trip Inspections 1. Tires: Adjust the tire inflation pressures to specification. Low tire inflation pres- sures will result in overheating andpossible failure of the tires. Avoid using worn or damaged tires which may result in reduced traction ortire failure. NOTE: Never exceed the maximum tire in- flation pressure shown on the tires. 2. Fuel, engine coolant and en- gine oil: High speed travel consumes 1.5 times more fuel than urban motoring. Do not forget to check both engine coolantand engine oil. 3. Drive belt: A loose or damaged drive belt may result in overheating of the engine. C180A01A-AAT USE OF LIGHTS Check your lights regularly for correct operation and always keep them clean. When driving during the day in condi- tions of poor visibility, it is helpful todrive with headlights on low beam. This enables you to be seen as well as to see. C190A03A-GAT TRAILER OR VEHICLE TOWING If you are considering towing with your car, you should first check with your Province Department of Motor Vehiclesto determine their legal requirements. Since laws vary from province to prov- ince, the requirements for towing trail-ers, cars, other types of vehicles, or apparatus may differ. Ask your Hyundai dealer for further details before towing.
!
CAUTION
Do not do any towing with your car during its first 2,000 km (1,200 miles) in order to allow the engine to prop-erly break in. Failure to heed this caution may result in serious en- gine or transaxle damage. NOTE - For Europe
o The technically permissible maxi-
mum load on the rear axle(s) may be exceeded by not more than 15% and the technically permissible maximum laden mass of the ve- hicle may be exceeded by not morethan 10 % or 100 kg (220.4 lbs), whichever value is lower. In this case, do not exceed 100 km/h (62.1mph) for vehicle of category M1 or 80 km/h (49.7 mph) for vehicle of category N1.
o When a vehicle of category M1 is towing a trailer, the additional loadimposed at the trailer couplingdevice may cause the tire maxi- mum load ratings to be exceeded, but not by more than 15 %. In thiscase, do not exceed 100 km/h (62.1 mph) and increase the tire infla- tion pressure by at least 0.2 bar.

Your Hyundai is delivered with the fol- lowing: Spare tire and wheel Wheel nut wrench, Wrench bar, Screw driver,Jack, Towing hook HTB224
WARNING:
o Driving on worn-out tires is dan- gerous! Worn-out tires can cause
loss of braking effectiveness, steering control and traction. When replacing tires, never mixradial and bias-ply tires on the same car. If you replace radial tires with bias-ply tires, they mustbe installed in sets of four.
o Using tires and wheels of other
than the recommended sizes maycause unusual handling charac- teristics that may cause death, serious injury or property dam-age.
o Tires degrade over time, even when
they are not being used. Regard-less of the remaining tread, it is recommended that tires generally be replaced after six (6) years ofnormal service. Heat caused by hot climates or frequent high load- ing conditions can accelerate theaging process. Failure to follow this warning can result in sudden tire failure, which could lead to aloss of control and an accident involving serious injury or death.
!o The ABS works by comparing thespeed of the wheels. Tire size can affect wheel speed. When replac- ing tires, all 4 tires must use the same size originally supplied withthe vehicle. Using tires of a different size can cause the ABS (Anti-lock Brake System) and ESP(ElectronicStability Program) to work irregu- larly.
