Driving your vehicle05
Careless driving may result in a
loss of vehicle control, possibly
leading to an accident, severe
personal injury, and death. The
driver’s primary responsibility
is to drive in the safe and legal
manner. The use of any hand-
held devices, other equipment,
or vehicle systems, which take
the driver’s eyes, attention and
focus away from the safe opera-
tion of a vehicle or which are
not permissible by law, should
never be used in driving.
WARNINGAll passengers must be proper-
ly belted whenever the vehicle
is moving. Refer to "Seat belts"
in chapter 2 for more informa-
tion on the proper usage.
WARNING
Always take a look around your
vehicle for any passers-by,
especially children, before
changing the shift lever to D
(Drive) or R (Reverse).
WARNING

- When the other vehicle drives at therear very nearby or drives very close.
- When a trailer or carrier is installed.
- When the temperature of rear bumper is high.
- When the sensors are covered by the vehicle, wall and pillar of parking
lot.
- When your vehicle moves back, if the detected vehicle also moves back.
- If there is small things like shopping cart and baby carriage.
- If there is low height vehicle like sport vehicle.
- When the vehicle is close to your vehicle.
- When driving through a narrow road with many trees or bushes.
The warning light on the outsiderearview mirror may not alert thedriver, when:
- The outside rearview mirrors are
severely polluted
- The windows are severely polluted
- The windows are severely tinted.
This device complies with Part
15 of the FCC rules.
Operation is subject to the following
two conditions:
1. This device may not cause harmful interference, and
2. This device must accept any inter- ference received, including inter-
ference that may cause undesired
operation.

Driving your vehicle
Do not "lug" or "over-rev" the engine. Lugging is to drive too
slowly in a high gear, resulting in
the engine bucking. In this case,
shift to a lower gear. Over-revving
is racing the engine beyond its safe
limit. This can be avoided by decel-
erating to a recommended speed.
Use your air conditioning at inter- vals. The air conditioning system
operates by engine power. Thus,
your fuel economy will decline,
when turning it ON.
Opening the windows, while driv- ing at a high speed, may reduce
the fuel economy.
The fuel economy will decline in the crosswind and headwind. To
offset some of this loss, slow down
the driving speed.
Keeping a vehicle in good operating
condition is important both for the
fuel economy and safety. Therefore,
have your vehicle inspected and
maintained by an authorized EQUUS
dealer on a regular basis. - Turning the engine OFF while
driving
Never turn the engine OFF to
coast down hills or anytime the
vehicle is in motion. The power
steering and power brakes will
not properly operate, when the
engine is turned OFF. Keep the
engine ON and downshift to an
appropriate gear for engine
braking effect. Moreover, turn-
ing OFF the ignition, while driv-
ing, may lock the steering
wheel, blocking the steer wheel
movement and causing a seri-
ous injury or death.
WARNING

To prevent the locks from
frozen
To prevent the locks from being
frozen, spray authorized de-icing
fluid or glycerin into key openings.
When a lock opening is already cov-
ered with ice, spray authorized de-
icing fluid on the ice to remove it.
When an internal part of a lock
freezes, try to thaw it with a heated
key. Carefully use the heated key to
avoid an injury.
Use authorized window-wash-
er anti-freezer solution in sys-
tem
To prevent the window washer from
being frozen, add authorized win-
dow-washer anti-freeze solution, as
instructed on the window-washer
container. Window-washer anti-
freeze solution is available from an
authorized EQUUS dealer, and so
are the most auto parts outlets. Do
not use engine coolant or other types
of anti-freezer solution, because
these may damage the vehicle paint.
Do not let your parking brake
freeze
Under some conditions, your parking
brake may freeze in the engaged
position. This is most likely to hap-
pen, when there is an accumulation
of snow or ice around/near the rear
brakes, or when the brakes are wet.
When there is the risk that your park-
ing brake may freeze, temporarily
apply it after locating the shift lever in
P(Park). Also, block the rear wheels
in advance, so the vehicle may not
roll. Then, release the parking brake.
Do not let ice and snow accu-
mulate underneath
Under some conditions, snow and
ice may build up under the fenders
and interfere with the steering. When
driving in such conditions during the
severe winter, you should check
underneath the vehicle on a regular
basis to assure that moving the front
wheels and the steering components
is unobstructed.
Carry emergency equipment
In accordance with weather condi-
tions, you should carry appropriate
emergency equipment, while driving.
Some of the items you may want to
carry include tire chains, tow straps,
chains, flashlight, emergency flares,
sand, a shovel, jumper cables, a win-
dow scraper, gloves, ground cloth,
coveralls and a blanket.
Do not place objects or materi-
als in the engine compartment
Putting objects or materials in the
engine compartment may cause an
engine failure or combustion,
because those may block the engine
cooling. The manufacturer is not
responsible for the damage caused
by such placement.

Maintenance
Blade inspectionInformation
Hot wax in market may be used in
automatic car washes. However, it is
known to make it difficult to clean the
windshield.
Contamination of either the wind-
shield or the wiper blades with for-
eign substances may undermine the
effects of the windshield wipers.
Common contamination sources are
insects, tree sap, and hot wax treat-
ments used in some car washes.
When the blades do not properly
wipe off, clean the window and
blades with a good-quality cleaner or
mild detergent. Then, thoroughly
wash them with clean water.
Do not use gasolines, kerosene,
paint thinner, or other solvents on
or near the wiper blades to pre-
vent damage.
Blade replacement
When the wipers no longer ade-
quately clean, the blades may be
worn out or cracked. Then, replace-
ment is required.
To prevent damage to the wiper
arms or other components, do not
attempt to manually move the
wipers.
The use of a non-specified wiper
blade could result in wiper mal-
function and failure.
Front windshield wiper blade
For your convenience, move the
windshield wiper blades as illustrat-
ed.
Turn off the engine.
Fully raise the wipers by setting the
wiper lever in the single wiping
(MIST) position less than 20 sec-
onds.

Maintenance
Keep the battery away from water or any other liquid.
The battery is located in the trunk. Thus, be careful when
loading a container filled with
liquid inside the trunk.
For your safety, use only the genuine HYUNDAI battery, when
replacing it.
Reset items
Items should be reset after either a
battery discharge or a battery dis-
connection.

Tire care
For the better maintenance, safety,
and fuel economy, you must always
maintain the recommended tire infla-
tion pressures, and follow the load
limits and weight distribution recom-
mendation.
Recommended cold tire infla-
tion pressures
The tire pressure (including the
spare) should be measured, when it
is cold. A “cold tire” means the vehi-
cle does not drive for the last 3 hours
or is driven shorter than 1 mile (1.6
km).
The recommended pressure must be
maintained for the best driving, han-
dling, and the minimum tire wear-out.
For the information about the recom-
mended inflation pressure, refer to
“Tire and wheels” in the chapter 8.
All specifications (sizes and pres-
sures) are specified on the label
attached to the central pillar of the
driver's door.
