Driving your vehicle
1. Carry the smart key or leave it
inside the vehicle.
2. Make sure the parking brake is
firmly applied.
3.Manual Transmission- Depress
the clutch pedal fully and shift the
transmission into Neutral. Depress
the brake and clutch pedal fully.
Automatic Transmission- Place
the transmission shift lever in P
(Park). Depress the brake pedal
fully.
You can also start the engine
when the shift lever is in the N
(Neutral) position.
4. Press the engine start/stop button.
It should be started without
depressing the accelerator.
5. Do not wait for the engine to warm
up while the vehicle remains sta-
tionary.
Start driving at moderate engine
speeds. (Steep accelerating and
decelerating should be avoided.)Even if the smart key is in the vehi-
cle, if it is far away from you, the
engine may not start.
When the engine start/stop button
is in the ACC or ON position, if any
door is open, the system checks
for the smart key. If the smart key is
not in the vehicle, and if all doors
are closed, the chime will sound for
about 5 seconds. Keep the smart
key in the vehicle, when using the
ACC position or if the vehicle
engine is on.
WARNING
The engine will start by press-
ing the engine start/stop button,
only when the smart key is in
the vehicle. Never allow chil-
dren or any person who is unfa-
miliar with the vehicle to touch
the engine start/stop button or
related parts.
CAUTION
If the engine stalls while you are
in motion, do not attempt to
move the shift lever to the P
(Park) position. If traffic and
road conditions permit, you may
put the shift lever in the
N(Neutral) position while the
vehicle is still moving and press
the engine start/stop button in
an attempt to restart the engine.

Driving your vehicle
Shifting to R (Reverse)
This manual transmission is
designed with a detent to differenti-
ate 1st and R (Reverse) gear. To
shift into reverse, you must shift past
1st gear and the detent in order to
get into the R (Reverse) gear gate.

side of the 1st gear.
After the vehicle is stoped, push the
shift lever to the left side of the 1st
gear past the detent then push the
shift lever upward. The warning
chime operates once.
Downshifting
When you must slow down in heavy
traffic or while driving up steep hills,
downshift before the engine starts to
labor. Downshifting reduces the
chance of stalling and gives better
acceleration when you again need to
increase your speed. When the vehi-
cle is traveling down steep hills,
downshifting helps maintain safe
speed and prolongs brake life.
This vehicle is geared for improved
fuel economy and may need to be
driven in a lower gear when driving
up hills or into high winds. Using top
gear is best for fuel economy, but you
should use the best gear for the road
conditions.CAUTION
If you try to shift to the 1st
gear too quickly, it is possible
to shift to R (Reverse) instead
of 1st gear.
Before driving, check that the
warning chime operates once,
when you press the brake
pedal and shift to R (Reverse).
If the warning chime does not
operate when you shift to R
(Reverse), contact an author-
ized HYUNDAI dealer as soon
as possible.
Before driving you should
learn how to shift to R
(Reverse), to 1st gear or 2nd
gear.
Shift to R only when the vehi-
cle is stationary. When the
shift lever is pressed to the
left, a slight resistance has to
be overcome.

✽
✽
NOTICE
The first few shifts on a new vehicle
may be somewhat abrupt. This is a
normal condition, and the shifting
sequence will adjust after shifts are
cycled a few times by the TCM
(Transmission Control Module) or
PCM (Powertrain Control Module).
For smooth operation, depress the
brake pedal when shifting from N
(Neutral) to a forward or reverse
gear.
WARNING- Automatic
transmission
Always check the surrounding
areas near your vehicle for
people, especially children,
before shifting a car into D
(Drive) or R (Reverse).
Before leaving the driver’s
seat, always make sure the
shift lever is in the P (Park)
position; then set the parking
brake fully and shut the
engine off. Unexpected and
sudden vehicle movement
can occur if these precautions
are not followed in the order
identified.CAUTION
To avoid damage to your
transmission, do not acceler-
ate the engine in R (Reverse)
or any forward gear position
with the brakes on.
When stopped on an incline,
do not hold the vehicle sta-
tionary with engine power.
Use the service brake or the
parking brake.
Do not shift from N (Neutral)
or P (Park) into D (Drive), or R
(Reverse) when the engine is
above idle speed.

Driving your vehicle
Power brakes
Your vehicle has power-assisted
brakes that adjust automatically
through normal usage.
In the event that the power-assisted
brakes lose power because of a
stalled engine or some other reason,
you can still stop your vehicle by
applying greater force to the brake
pedal than you normally would. The
stopping distance, however, will be
longer.
When the engine is not running, the
reserve brake power is partially
depleted each time the brake pedal
is applied. Do not pump the brake
pedal when the power assist has
been interrupted.
Pump the brake pedal only when
necessary to maintain steering con-
trol on slippery surfaces.
BRAKE SYSTEM
WARNING - Brakes
Do not drive with your foot
resting on the brake pedal.
This will create abnormal high
brake temperatures, exces-
sive brake lining and pad
wear, and increased stopping
distances.
When descending a long or
steep hill, shift to a lower gear
and avoid continuous applica-
tion of the brakes. Continuous
brake application will cause
the brakes to overheat and
could result in a temporary
loss of braking performance.
Wet brakes may impair the
vehicle’s ability to safely slow
down; the vehicle may also
pull to one side when the
brakes are applied. Applying
the brakes lightly will indicate
whether they have been
affected in this way. Always
test your brakes in this fash-
ion after driving through deep
water.
(Continued)(Continued)
To dry the brakes, apply them
lightly while maintaining a safe
forward speed until brake per-
formance returns to normal.
Always, confirm the position of
the brake and accelerator
pedal before driving. If you
don't check the position of the
accelerator and brake pedal
before driving, you may
depress the accelerator
instead of the brake pedal. It
may cause a serious accident.

Check the brake warning light by turn-
ing the ignition switch ON (do not start
the engine). This light will be illuminat-
ed when the parking brake is applied
with the ignition switch in the START
or ON position.
Before driving, be sure the parking
brake is fully released and the brake
warning light is off.
If the brake warning light remains on
after the parking brake is released
while engine is running, there may be
a malfunction in the brake system.
Immediate attention is necessary.
WARNING
To prevent unintentional move-
ment when stopped and leav-
ing the vehicle, do not use the
gearshift lever in place of the
parking brake. Set the parking
brake AND make sure the
gearshift lever is securely posi-
tioned in 1st (First) gear or R
(Reverse) for manual transmis-
sion equipped vehicles and in
P (Park) for automatic trans-
mission equipped vehicles.
Never allow anyone who is
unfamiliar with the vehicle to
touch the parking brake. If the
parking brake is released unin-
tentionally, serious injury may
occur.
All vehicles should always
have the parking brake fully
engaged when parking to avoid
inadvertent movement of the
car which can injure occupants
or pedestrians.
W-75
CAUTION
Do not operate the parking
brake while the vehicle is mov-
ing except in an emergency sit-
uation. It could damage the
vehicle system and endanger
driving safety.

Driving your vehicle
Electronic stability control
(ESC)
The Electronic Stability control (ESC)
system is designed to stabilize the
vehicle during cornering maneuvers.
ESC checks where you are steering
and where the vehicle is actually
going. ESC applies the brakes at
individual wheels and intervenes in
the engine management system to
stabilize the vehicle.The Electronic Stability Control
(ESC) system is an electronic system
designed to help the driver maintain
vehicle control under adverse
conditions. It is not a substitute for
safe driving practices. Factors
including speed, road conditions and
driver steering input can all affect
whether ESC will be effective in
preventing a loss of control. It is still
your responsibility to drive and corner
at reasonable speeds and to leave a
sufficient margin of safety.
When you apply your brakes under
conditions which may lock the
wheels, you may hear a “tik-tik’’
sound from the brakes, or feel a cor-
responding sensation in the brake
pedal. This is normal and it means
your ESC is active.
✽ ✽
NOTICE
A click sound may be heard in the
engine compartment when the vehi-
cle begins to move after the engine is
started. These conditions are normal
and indicate that the Electronic
Stability Control System is function-
ing properly.
WARNING
Never drive too fast for the road
conditions or too quickly when
cornering. Electronic stability
control (ESC) will not prevent
accidents. Excessive speed in
turns, abrupt maneuvers and
hydroplaning on wet surfaces
can still result in serious acci-
dents. Only a safe and attentive
driver can prevent accidents by
avoiding maneuvers that cause
the vehicle to lose traction.
Even with ESC installed, always
follow all the normal precau-
tions for driving - including driv-
ing at safe speeds for the condi-
tions.

dition is encountered, the ESC will
operate, and the ESC indicator
will blink to indicate the ESC is oper-
ating.
If ESC indicator illuminates while
ESC is operating, the ESC may have
a malfunction. Take your car to an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer and
have the system checked.
