- Do not get back in the vehiclewhile refueling. Do not operate anything that can produce static electricity. Static electricity dis- charge can ignite fuel vapors re-sulting in an explosion.
- When using a portable fuel con-
tainer, be sure to place the con-tainer on the ground while refuel- ing. Static electricity discharge from the container can ignite fuelvapors causing a fire. While start- ing refueling, contact should be maintained until the filling is com-plete.
- Do not use cellular phones around
a gas station. The electric currentor electronic interference from cel- lular phones can ignite fuel va- pors causing a fire.
- When refueling, always turn the engine off. Sparks by engine com-partment electrical equipment canignite fuel vapors causing a fire. After refueling, check to make sure the fuel tank cap is securely closed,and then start the engine.
- Do not smoke or try to light ciga-
rettes around a gas station. Auto-motive fuels are flammable.

Using a cellular phone or a two- way radio When a cellular phone is used inside the vehicle, noise may be producedfrom the audio equipment. This does not mean that something is wrong with the audio equipment. In such a case,use the cellular phone at a place as far as possible from the audio equipment. Precautions on handing the unit
o When the temperature inside your
car is high, open the window for ventilation, and then operate the unit.
o Do not use a cassette tape which
has longer play time than C-60 (60minute play time).
o Clean the head periodically (monthly)
using a cotton applicator soaked incolorless alcohol to enjoy excellent sound quality at all times.
o Be sure to check whether the tape is properly wound before inserting itinto the tape loading slot. When the tape is loose, tighten it using a pencilor similar instrument to take up the slack of the tape.
o Be sure to keep the cassette tapes always in the case to protect themfrom any dust. The dust or foreign substances attached to the tape candamage the tape head or deteriorate the sound quality.
o Keep the cassette tapes away from magnetic forces (speaker, TV, etc.)to maintain the recording on the tape in good condition. Take care not to let any other objectsthan the cassette tape enter thecassette loading slot.
o Do not use any gasoline, thinner,
benzene or any other organic sol-vents to clean the unit. Use a dry cloth to clean the unit.
o When the tapes are stored in an overlapping manner for a long time,the characteristics of the recording on the tape may be mutually trans-ferred, thus deteriorating the sound quality. When you rewind the tapes in everythree months to keep them for a long time, you can maintain good sound quality by preventing adhesion of thetape surfaces.
o Take care not to place the tapes on
the seat, instrument panel or nearwindow. Keep the tapes away from the direct sunlight.
!
! CAUTION:
When using a communication sys- tem such a cellular phone or a radio set inside the vehicle, a separate external antenna must be fitted. Whena cellular phone or a radio set is used with an internal antenna alone, it may interfere with the vehicle's elec-trical system and adversely affect safe operation of the vehicle.
WARNING:
Don't use a cellular phone when you are driving. You should stop at a safe place to use a cellular phone.

o Be sure that the cassette label is not
loose or peeling off or tape ejection may be difficult.
o Never touch or soil the actual audio
tape surfaces.
o Keep all magnetized objects, such as electric motors, speakers or trans-formers away from your cassettetapes and tape player unit.
o Store cassettes in a cool, dry place
with the open side facing down toprevent dust from setting in the cas- sette body.
o We strongly recommend against the
use of tapes longer than C-60 (60 minutes total). Tapes such as C-120 or C-180 are very thin and do not perform as well in the automotiveenvironment. o Avoid repeated fast / reverse usage
to replay one given tune or tapesection. This can cause poor tape winding to occur, and eventually cause excessive internal drag andpoor audio quality in the cassette. If this occurs, it can sometimes be corrected by fast winding the tapefrom end to end several times. If this does not correct the problem, do not continue to use the tape in yourvehicle.

CARE OF CASSETTE TAPES
B860A01A-AAT Proper care of your cassette tapes will extend the tape life and increase your listening enjoyment. Always protect your tapes and cassette cases fromdirect sunlight, severely cold and dusty conditions. When not in use, cassettes shouldalways be stored in the original protec- tive cassette case. When the vehicle is very hot or cold, allow the interior tem-perature to become more comfortable before listening to your cassettes.
o Never leave a cassette inserted in the player when not being played. This could damage the tape playerunit and the cassette tape. B860A01L

o Don't coast down hills with the carout of gear. This is extremely haz- ardous. Keep the car in gear at all times, use the brakes to slow down, then shift to a lower gear so thatengine 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 brakesoverheating 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 and
keep the car pointed straight aheadwhile you slow down. When you are moving slowly enough for it to be safe to do so, pull off the road andstop in a safe place.
o Use caution when parking on a hill.
Engage the parking brake and place
the gear selector lever in first or reverse gear. If your car is facing downhill, turn the front wheels intothe curb to help keep the car from rolling. If your car is facing uphill,

GOOD BRAKING PRACTICES
C130A01HR-GAT
WARNING:
Objects should not extend higher than the top of the front seatbacks. 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 parking brake is not engaged and that the parking brake indicator light is out before driving away.
o Driving through water may get the brakes wet. They can also get wet when the car is washed. Wet brakescan be dangerous! Your car will not stop 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 under control at all times. If the braking action does not return to normal,stop as soon as it is safe to do so and call your Hyundai dealer for assistance.
CAUTION:
o Never start the engine with the gearshift lever placed in the for-ward or reverse while one of therear wheels is jacked up and the other in contact with the ground; doing so may cause the vehicleto jump forward.
o If one of the rear wheels begins
to spin in mud, snow, etc., thevehicle can sometimes be driven out by depressing the accelera- tor pedal further; however, avoidrunning the engine continuously at high rpm because doing so could damage the locking differ-ential.
