STARTING
C050A01A-AAT
WARNING:
Never run the engine in a closed or poorly ventilated area any longer than is needed to move your car inor out of the area. The carbon mon- oxide gas emitted is odorless and can 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 (manualtransaxle) in neutral or the selectorlever (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 function- ing properly before starting the en-gine.
WARNING:
Be sure that the clutch is fully de-pressed when starting a manual transaxle vehicle. Your manual transaxle equipped vehicle will notstart unless the clutch pedal is fully depressed. On a manual transaxle equipped vehicle that can be startedwithout depressing the clutch, there is 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.
4. Turn the ignition key to the "START"
position and release it when the engine starts. After the engine has started, allowthe engine to run for 10 to 20 sec- onds prior to placing the vehicle in gear. The starter should not be operated for more than 15 seconds at a time.Wait 15-30 seconds between start- ing attempts to protect the starter from overheating.

AUTOMATIC TRANSAXLE
NOTE:Depress the brake pedal and push the button when shifting. 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 andoverdrive gears.
C090A02A-GAT
The highly efficient Hyundai automatic transaxle has four forward speeds and one reverse speed. It has a conven-tional shift pattern as shown in the illustration. CAUTION:
Never shift into "R" or "P" position while the vehicle is moving.
accelerating or shifting gears. On aslippery surface, an abrupt change invehicle speed can cause the drive wheels to lose traction and the ve- hicle to go out of control.
WARNING:
o Avoid high cornering speeds.
o Do not make quick steering wheel movements, such as sharp lanechanges or fast, sharp turns.
o Always wear your seat belts. In a collision crash, an unbeltedperson is significantly more likelyto die than a person wearing a seat belt.
o The risk of rollover is greatly in- creased if you lose control ofyour vehicle at highway speeds.
o Loss of control often occurs if two or more wheels drop off theroadway and the driver oversteers to reenter the roadway.
o In the event your vehicle leaves the roadway, do not steer sharply.Instead, slow down before pullingback into the travel lanes.
o Never exceed posted speed limits.

C090N06A-DAT Good Driving Practices
o Never move the gear selector lever
from "P" or "N" to any other position with the accelerator pedal de- pressed.
o Never move the gear selector lever into "P" when the vehicle is in mo-tion.
o Be sure the car is completely stopped before you attempt to shift into "R" or"D".
o Never take the car out of gear and coast down a hill. This may be ex-tremely hazardous. Always leave the car in gear when moving.
o Do not "ride" the brakes. This can cause them to overheat and mal-function. Instead, when you are driv-ing down a long hill, slow down and shift to a lower gear. When you do this, engine braking will help slowthe car.
o Slow down before shifting to a lower
gear. Otherwise, the lower gear maynot be engaged.
o Always use the hand brake. Do not
depend on placing the transaxle in"P" to keep the car from moving. o Exercise extreme caution when driv-
ing on a slippery surface. Be espe-cially careful when braking, acceler- ating or shifting gears. On a slippery surface, an abrupt change in ve-hicle speed can cause the drive wheels to lose traction and the ve- hicle to go out of control.
o Optimum vehicle performance and economy is obtained by smoothlydepressing and releasing the accel-erator pedal.
o Turn the overdrive switch on for good
fuel economy and smooth driving. Ifengine braking is needed in the "D" range or if repeated upshifting and downshifting between the 3rd and4th gear is needed when climbing a gentle slope, it is recommended that the overdrive switch be turned off.Turn the overdrive switch back on immediately afterward.
WARNING:
o Avoid high cornering speeds.
o Do not make quick steering wheel movements, such as sharp lane changes or fast, sharp turns. o Always wear your seat belts.
In a collision crash, an unbelted person is significantly more likely to die than a person wearing a seat belt.
o The risk of rollover is greatly in- creased if you lose control ofyour vehicle at highway speeds.
o Loss of control often occurs if two or more wheels drop off theroadway and the driver oversteersto reenter the roadway.
o In the event your vehicle leaves
the roadway, do not steer sharply. Instead, slow down before pull- ing back into the travel lanes.
o Never exceed posted speed limits.
o If your vehicle becomes stuck in snow, mud, sand, etc., then you may attempt to rock the vehicle free by moving it forward and back- ward. Do not attempt this proce-dure if people or objects are any- where near the vehicle. During the rocking operation the vehicle maysuddenly move forward of back- ward as it becomes unstuck, caus- ing injury or damage to nearbypeople or objects.

12ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEMELECTRONIC STABILITY PROGRAM (ESP)
C310A01JM-DAT (If Installed)
OMC029101R
The Electronic Stability Program (ESP) system is designed to stabilise thevehicle during cornering manoeuvres. ESP checks where you are steering and where the vehicle is actually going.ESP applies the brakes at individual wheels and intervenes in the engine management system to stabilise thevehicle. The Electronic Stability Program (ESP) system is an electronic system de- signed to help the driver maintain ve- hicle control under adverse conditions.It is not a substitute for safe driving practices.
!WARNING:
Your ABS (ESP) will not prevent accidents due to improper or dan- gerous driving manoeuvres. Even though vehicle control is improved during emergency braking, always maintain a safe distance between you and objects ahead. Vehicle speeds should always be reduced during extreme road conditions. The braking distance for cars equipped
with an anti-lock braking system (the
electronic stability program) may be
longer than for those without it in the following road conditions. These roads should be driven at reduced speeds.
o Rough, gravel or snow-covered
roads.
o With tyre chains installed.
o On roads where the road surface is pitted or has different surface height.
The safety features of an ABS (ESP) equipped vehicle should not be testedby high speed driving or cornering.This could endanger the safety of yourself or others.
C120A01FC-DAT(If Installed) The Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) is designed to prevent wheel lock-up dur-ing sudden braking or on hazardous road surfaces. The ABS control module monitors the wheel speed and controlsthe pressure applied to each brake. Thus, in emergency situations or on slick roads, ABS will increase vehiclecontrol 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 theanti-lock brake system (ElectronicStability Program) is functioning properly.
o During ABS (ESP) operation, a slight pulsation may be felt in the brake pedal when the brakes areapplied. Also, a noise may be heardin the engine compartment while braking. These conditions are nor- mal and indicate that the anti-lockbrake system (Electronic Stability Program) is functioning properly.

C310B01JM-AAT ESP ON/OFF Mode When the ESP is operating, the ESP indicator in the instrument cluster willblink. If you turn the system off by pressing the ESP switch, the ESP-OFF indica-tor will come on and stay on. In the ESP-OFF mode, the stability control will be deactivated. Adjust your drivingaccordingly. To turn the system back on, press the switch again. The ESP- OFF indicator should go off. NOTE: The ESP mode will automatically be turned ON after the engine is turnedoff and restarted. C310D01JM-DAT 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 authorised 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 authorised Hyundai dealer.
!
CAUTION:
Driving with varying tyre or wheel size may cause the ESP system tomalfunction. When replacing tyres, make sure they are the same size as your original tyres.!
Factors including speed, road condi- tions and driver steering input can allaffect whether ESP will be effective in preventing a loss of control. It is still your responsibility to drive and cornerat reasonable speeds and to leave a sufficient margin of safety.
WARNING:
Electronic stability program is only a driving aid; all normal precautions for driving in bad weather and on slippery road surfaces should beobserved.

Non-operational conditions of rear parking assist system The rear parking assist system may not operate properly when: 1. Moisture is frozen to the sensor. (It will operate normally when the mois- ture has been cleared.)
2. The sensor is covered with foreign
matter, such as snow or water, or thesensor cover is blocked. (It will oper- ate normally when the material isremoved or the sensor is no longer blocked.)
3. Driving on uneven road surfaces
(unpaved roads, gravel, bumps, gra-dient).
Sensor OMC025109
REAR PARKING ASSIST SYSTEM
C400A03P-DAT (If Installed) The rear parking assist system assists the driver during backward movementof the vehicle by chiming if any object is sensed within a distance of 120 cm (47 in.) behind the vehicle. This systemis a supplemental system and it is not intended to nor does it replace the need for extreme care and attention of thedriver. The sensing range and objects detectable by the back sensors are limited. Whenever backing-up, pay asmuch attention to what is behind you as you would in a vehicle without a rear parking assist system.
!
Operation of the rear parking assist system Operating condition
o This system will activate when back-
ing up with the ignition key ON. If the vehicle is moving at a speed over 5 km/h (3 mph), the system may not be activated correctly.
o The sensing distance while the Rear Parking Assist System is in opera-tion is approximately 120 cm (47 in.).
o When more than two objects are sensed at the same time, the closestone will be recognised first. WARNING:
The Rear Parking Assist System is asupplementary function only. The operation of the Rear Parking Assist System can be affected by severalfactors (including environmental con- ditions). It is the responsibility of the driver to always check the area be-hind the vehicle before backing up.

CAUTION:
1. The rear parking assist warning may not sound sequentially de- pending on the speed and shapesof the objects detected.
2. The rear parking assist system
may malfunction if the vehiclebumper height or sensor installa- tion has been modified or dam- aged. Any non-factory installedequipment or accessories may also interfere with the sensor per- formance.
3. The sensor may not recognise objects less than 15 in. (40 cm)from the sensor, or it may sensean incorrect distance. Use cau- tion.
4. When the sensor is frozen or stained with snow, dirt, or water,the sensor may be inoperative until the stains are removed using asoft cloth.
5. Do not push, scratch or strike the
sensor. Sensor damage couldoccur.
!
4. Objects generating excessive noise
(vehicle horns, loud motorcycle en- gines, or truck air brakes) are within range of the sensor.
5. Heavy rain or water spray exists.
6. Wireless transmitters or mobile phones are within range of the sen-sor.
7. The sensor is covered with snow. 8. Trailer towing The detecting range may decrease when: 1. The sensor is stained with foreign matter such as snow or water. (The sensing range will return to normal when removed.)
2. Outside air temperature is extremely hot or cold.
The following objects may not be recognised by the sensor: 1. Sharp or slim objects such as ropes, chains or small poles.
2. Objects which tend to absorb the
sensor frequency such as clothes,spongy material or snow.
3. Undetectable objects smaller than 1
m (40 in.) and narrower than 14 cm (6in.) in diameter. CAUTION:
This system can only sense objects within the range and location of the sensors; It can not detect objects inother areas where sensors are not installed. Also, small or slim ob- jects, such as poles or objects lo-cated between sensors may not be detected by the sensors. Always visually check behind thevehicle when backing up. Be sure to inform any drivers of the vehicle that may be unfamiliar withthe system regarding the systems capabilities and limitations. Your new vehicle warranty does notcover any accidents or damage to the vehicle or its occupants due to a rear parking assist system malfunc-tion. Always drive safely and cau- tiously.!
