C055B01HR-GAT STARTING AND STOPPING THE ENGINE FOR TURBO CHARGERINTERCOOLER (Diesel Engine)
(1) Do not race, accelerate suddenly,
or accelerate immediately the en- gine after starting it. If the engine iscold, allow the engine to idle for several seconds before it is driven to ensure sufficient lubrication ofthe turbo charger unit. WARNING:
Be sure that the clutch is fully de- pressed when starting a manual transmission vehicle. Otherwisethere is the potential to cause dam- age to the vehicle or injury to some- one inside or outside the vehicle asa result of the forward or backward movement of the vehicle that will occur if the clutch is not depressedwhen the vehicle is started.
5. Turn the ignition key to the "START" position and release it when the engine starts.
C050B01HP
NOTE: If the engine were not started within 10 seconds after the preheating is completed, turn the ignition key oncemore to the "LOCK" position, and then to the "ON" position, in order to preheat again. Amber lamp ON Amber lamp OFF
C051A01O-GAT STARTING FOR THE DIESEL ENGINE ENGINE COLD
o Turn the ignition key to position
"ON" and wait for the pre-heat indi- cator light to go out.
o Operate the starter until the engine
runs.
ENGINE WARM Operate the starter. If the engine does not respond on the first attempt, wait several seconds and try again usingthe pre-heat. C050B01HR-GAT NORMAL CONDITIONS The Starting Procedure:
1. Insert key, and fasten the seat belt.
2. Depress the clutch pedal fully and place the gearshift lever in neutral.
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. 4. On vehicles equipped with the diesel
preheat indicator light, turn the igni-tion key to the "ON" position. The diesel pre-heat indicator light will first illuminate in amber, and then after ashort time, the amber illumination will go off, indicating that preheating is completed.

!WARNING:
Do not turn the engine off immedi- ately after it has been subjected to aheavy load. Doing so may cause severe damage to the engine or turbo charger unit. High speed driving
Up to 80 km/hUp to 100km/h
Driving Condition
Required Idle Time About 20 secondsAbout 1 minute About 2 minutes
Steep mountain slopes or contin- ued driving in excess of 100km/h
(2) After high speed driving or prolonged
engine loading, the engine should be allowed to idle, as shown in the chart below, before turning it off. This idle time will allow the turbocharger to cool prior to shutting the engine off.
OPERATING THE MANUAL TRANSMISSION
HHR3026
C070A01HR-GAT Your Hyundai's manual transmission has a conventional shift pattern. This shift pattern is imprinted on the shift knob. The transmission is fully syn-chronized in all forward gears so shift- ing to either a higher or a lower gear is easily accomplished. NOTE:
o To shift into reverse, rest the le-
ver in neutral for at least 3 sec- onds after your car is completelystopped. Then move the lever into the reverse position.
o During cold weather, shifting may be difficult until the transmis-sion lubricant has warmed up. This is normal and not harmful tothe transmission.
o If you've come to a complete stop
and it's hard to shift into 1 st
or R
(Reverse), put the shift lever in N (Neutral) position and release the clutch. Press the clutch pedal backdown, and then shift into 1 st
or R
(Reverse) gear position.
o Do not use the shift lever as a handrest during driving, as this can result in premature wear of the transmission shift forks.

C070D02O-AAT Good Driving Practices
o Never take the car out of gear andcoast down a hill. This is extremely hazardous. Always leave the car in gear.
o Don't "ride" the brakes. This can cause them to overheat and mal-function. Instead, when you are driv- ing down a long hill, slow down andshift to a lower gear. When you do this, engine braking will help slow the car.
o Slow down before shifting to a lower gear. This will help avoid over-rev-ving the engine, which can causedamage.
o Slow down when you encounter
cross winds. This gives you muchbetter control of your car.
o Be sure the car is completely stopped
before you attempt to shift into re-verse. The transmission can be dam- aged if you do not. To shift into reverse, depress the clutch, movethe shift lever to neutral, wait three seconds, then shift to the reverse position.
o Exercise extreme caution when driv- ing on a slippery surface. Be espe-

C070B01A-AAT Using the Clutch The clutch should be pressed all the way to the floor before shifting, then released slowly. If your vehicle isequipped with an ignition lock switch, the engine will not start when starting the engine without depressing the clutchpedal. (if equipped) The clutch pedal should always be used after fully return- ing to the original position. Do not restyour foot on the clutch pedal while driving. This can cause unnecessary wear. Do not partially engage the clutchto hold the car on an incline. This causes unnecessary wear. Use the parking brake to hold the car on anincline. Do not operate the clutch pedal rapidly and repeatedly.
CAUTION:
When downshifting from fifth gear to fourth gear, caution should be taken not to inadvertently press the gear lever sideways in such a man-ner that second gear is engaged. Such a drastic downshift may cause the engine speed to increase to thepoint that the tachometer will enter the red-zone. Such over-revving of the engine may possibly cause en-gine damage.
!
!WARNING:
If your vehicle has a manual trans- mission not equipped with a ignition lock switch, it may move and causea serious accident when starting the engine without depressing the clutch pedal while the parking brake is re-leased and the shift lever not in the N (Neutral) position.
