time so that our policy of continual product improvement may be car-ried out.

Introduction
As with other vehicles of this type,
failure to operate this vehicle correct-
ly may result in loss of control, an
accident or vehicle rollover.
Specific design characteristics (high-
er ground clearance, track, etc.) give
this vehicle a higher center of gravity
than other types of vehicles. In other
words they are not designed for cor-
nering at the same speeds as con-
ventional 2-wheel drive vehicles.
Avoid sharp turns or abrupt maneu-
vers. Again, failure to operate this
vehicle correctly may result in loss of
control, an accident or vehicle
rollover.Be sure to read the
"Reducing the risk of a rollover"
driving guidelines, in section 5 of
this manual. No special break-in period is need-
ed. By following a few simple precau-
tions for the first 1,000 km (600
miles) you may add to the perform-
ance, economy and life of your vehi-
cle.
Do not race the engine.
While driving, keep your engine
speed (rpm, or revolutions per
minute) between 2,000 rpm and
4,000 rpm.
Do not maintain a single speed for long periods of time, either fast or
slow. Varying engine speed is
needed to properly break-in the
engine.
Avoid hard stops, except in emer- gencies, to allow the brakes to seat
properly.
Don't tow a trailer during the first 2,000 km (1,200 miles) of opera-tion. HYUNDAI promotes an environmen-
tally sound treatment of end of life
vehicles and offers to take back your
Hyundai end of life vehicles in accor-dance with the European Union (EU)
End of Life Vehicles Directive.
You can get the detailed information
from your national HYUNDAI home
page.

Safety precautions
Adjust your seat, so that you can sit in
a safe, comfortable position. It plays
an important role in protecting the
driver and passengers, together withthe seat belts and air bags in an acci-dent.
Air bag
You can take steps to reduce the risk
of being injured by an inflating air
bag. Sitting too close to an air bag
greatly increases the risk of injury, as
the event the air bag inflates. Move
your seat as far back as possible
from front air bags, while still main-
taining control of the vehicle.
Seat belts
Always fasten your seat belt before
starting the vehicle.
At all times, passengers should sit
upright and be properly restrained.
Infants and small children must be
restrained in an appropriate child
restraint system. Children who out-
grow a booster seat and adults must
fasten their seat belts.
Do not use a cushion thatreduces friction between the
seat and the passenger. The
passenger's hips may slide
under the lap portion of the seatbelt during an accident or a
sudden stop. Serious or fatal
internal injuries may resultbecause the seat belt cannot
properly operate.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of serious
injury or death from an inflating
air bag, take the following pre-cautions:
•Adjust the driver’s seat in the
rearmost position, while main-
taining the ability to fully con-
trol the vehicle.
Hold the steering wheel with
both hands at the 9 o’clock
and 3 o’clock positions to
minimize the risk of injuries to
your hands and arms.
NEVER place anything or any-
one on the air bags.
WARNING
Take the following precautions
to adjust your seat belt:
NEVER use one seat belt to fasten more than one occu-pant.
Always sit in an upright posi-
tion with the lap portion of the
seat belt snug and low acrossthe hips.
NEVER allow children or small infants to ride on a pas-
senger's laps.

Seat Warmer Burns
Passengers should pay extreme caution while using seat warm-
ers due to the possibility of
excess heating or burns. The
seat warmer may cause burns
even at low temperatures, espe-
cially when it is used for a long
period of time. In particular, the
driver must exercise extreme
care for the below passengers:
1.Infants, children, elderly or handicapped persons, or hos- pital outpatients
2.Persons with sensitive skin or those that burn easily
3.Fatigued individuals
4.Intoxicated individuals

Seat belt warning
As a reminder to the driver, the seat
belt warning light is turned ON for
approximately 6 seconds each time
you turn the ignition switch ON
regardless of belt fastening.
When the vehicle start to move with-
out fastening the seat belt with the
ignition switch ON, the seat belt
warning light flashes until it stops.
When the vehicle drives faster than
20km/h without fastening the seat
belt with the ignition switch is ON, the
seat belt warning chime will sound
for approximately 100 seconds.
No modifications or additions
should be made by the user,
as it may fail the seat belt
adjusting devices, or fail the
seat belt assembly from being
adjusted to remove slack to
be tightly fastened without
any slack.
When you fasten the seat belt,
be careful not to latch the seat
belt tap in the buckles of otherseats.
It is very dangerous, and you
may not be properly protected
by the seat belt.
Do not fasten or unfasten the seat belt in a repetitive man-
ner, while driving. This may
result in loss of control, and
an accident, causing death,
serious injury, or property
damage.(Continued)
WARNING (Continued)
While fastening the seat belt, make sure that the seat belt is
not fastened over a hard or a
fragile object.
Make sure that there is noth-
ing in the buckle. If so, the
seat belt may not be securelyfastened.

cause skin irritation. These
should not be inhaled for a pro-
longed period of time.
Thoroughly wash all the
exposed skin areas after an
accident, when the pre-tension-
er seat belt was activated.
