DRIVING YOUR HYUNDAI
9LOCKING DIFFERENTIAL
!
cially careful when braking, acceler- ating or shifting gears. On a slipperysurface, an abrupt change in ve- hicle 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 lane changes or fast, sharp turns.
o Always wear your seat belts. In a collis ion crash, an unbelted person
is significantly more likely to die than a person wearing a seatbelt.
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 pull- ing back into the travel lanes.
o Never exceed posted speed lim- its. D190A01HR-GAT (If Installed) A locking differential, if equipped, is for the rear wheel differential only. Thefeatures of this locking differential are described below: Just as with a conventional differential,the wheel on one side is allowed to turn at a different speed from the wheel on the other side when the vehicle iscornering. The difference between the locking differential and a conventional differential is that if the wheel on oneside of the vehicle loses traction, a greater amount of torque is applied to the rear wheel on the other side toimprove traction. NOTE: In a stationary position, the LD (Locking Differential) will operate when the difference of the revolu- tion speed between the rear rightwheel and the rear left wheel oc- curs.
The following procedures can be used to confirm that the locking differentialis functioning properly:
(1) Position the vehicle so that one
wheel is on a dry paved surface and the other on ice, snow, mud, etc. Drive the vehicle, and observe theoperation of the locking differential. The vehicle should not become stuck if the differential is function-ing properly.
(2) Depress the accelerator pedal
gradually, and then when traction isgood, depress it forcefully. If the vehicle accelerates well, the differ- ential is functioning properly.
