Upon deployment, tear seams moulded
directly into the pad covers will separate
under pressure from the expansion of the
air bags. Further opening of the covers
then allows full inflation of the air bags.A fully inflated air bag, in combination
with a properly worn seat belt, slows the
driver's or the passenger's forward
motion, reducing the risk of head and
chest injury.
After complete inflation, the air bag
immediately starts deflating, enabling the
driver to maintain forward visibility and
the ability to steer or operate other con-
trols.

WARNING
• Do not install or place any acces-
sories (drink holder, cassette
holder, sticker, etc.) on the front
passenger's panel above the
glove box in a vehicle with a pas-
senger's air bag. Such objects
may become dangerous projec-
tiles and cause injury if the pas-
senger's air bag inflates.
• When installing a container of liq-
uid air freshener inside the vehi-
cle, do not place it near the
instrument cluster nor on the
instrument panel surface.
It may become a dangerous pro-
jectile and cause injury if the pas-
senger's air bag inflates.

Driving your vehicle
38 5
Your vehicle's fuel economy depends
mainly on your style of driving, where you
drive and when you drive.
Each of these factors affects how many
miles (kilometers) you can get from a gal-
lon (litre) of fuel. To operate your vehicle
as economically as possible, use the fol-
lowing driving suggestions to help save
money in both fuel and repairs:
• Drive smoothly. Accelerate at a moder-
ate rate. Don't make "jack-rabbit" starts
or full-throttle shifts and maintain a
steady cruising speed. Do not race
between stoplights. Try to adjust your
speed to that of the other traffic so you
don't have to change speeds unneces-
sarily. Avoid heavy traffic whenever
possible. Always maintain a safe dis-
tance from other vehicles so you can
avoid unnecessary braking. This also
reduces brake wear.
• Drive at a moderate speed. The faster
you drive, the more fuel your car uses.
Driving at a moderate speed, especial-
ly on the highway, is one of the most
effective ways to reduce fuel consump-
tion.• Do not "ride" the brake or clutch pedal.
This can increase fuel consumption
and also increase wear on these com-
ponents. In addition, driving with your
foot resting on the brake pedal may
cause the brakes to overheat, which
reduces their effectiveness and may
lead to more serious consequences.
• Take care of your tyres. Keep them
inflated to the recommended pressure.
Incorrect inflation, either too much or
too little, results in unnecessary tyre
wear. Check the tyre pressures at least
once a month.
• Be sure that the wheels are aligned
correctly. Improper alignment can
result from hitting kerbs or driving too
fast over irregular surfaces. Poor align-
ment causes faster tyre wear and may
also result in other problems as well as
greater fuel consumption.
• Keep your car in good condition. For
better fuel economy and reduced
maintenance costs, maintain your car
in accordance with the maintenance
schedule. If you drive your car in
severe conditions, more frequent main-
tenance is required.• Keep your car clean. For maximum
service, your vehicle should be kept
clean and free of corrosive materials. It
is especially important that mud, dirt,
ice, etc. not be allowed to accumulate
on the underside of the car. This extra
weight can result in increased fuel con-
sumption and also contribute to corro-
sion.
• Travel lightly. Do not carry unnecessary
weight in your car. Weight reduces fuel
economy.
• Do not let the engine idle longer than
necessary. If you are waiting (and not
in traffic), turn off your engine and
restart only when you're ready to go.
• Remember, your vehicle does not
require extended warm-up. After the
engine has started, allow the engine to
run for 10 to 20 seconds prior to plac-
ing the vehicle in gear. In very cold
weather, however, give your engine a
slightly longer warm-up period.
• Do not "labour" or "over-rev" the
engine. Labouring is driving too slowly
in too high a gear resulting in the vehi-
cle kangarooing. If this happens, shift
to a lower gear. Over-revving is racing
the engine beyond its safe limit. This
can be avoided by shifting at the rec-
ommended speeds.

Driving your vehicle
Driving in flooded areas
Avoid driving through flooded areas
unless you are sure the water is no high-
er than the bottom of the wheel hub.
Drive through any water slowly. Allow
adequate stopping distance because
brake performance may be affected.
After driving through water, dry the
brakes by gently applying them several
times whilst the vehicle is moving slowly.
Driving off-road
Drive carefully off-road because your
vehicle may be damaged by rocks or
roots of trees. Become familiar with the
off-road conditions where you are going
to drive before you begin driving.Dual carrigeway/Motorway driving
Tyres:
Adjust the tyre inflation pressures to
specification. Low tyre inflation pressures
will result in overheating and possible
failure of the tyres.
Avoid using worn or damaged tyres
which may result in reduced traction or
tyre failure.
✽NOTICE
Never exceed the maximum tyre infla-
tion pressure shown on the tyres.
WARNING
• Underinflated or overinflated
tyres can cause poor handling,
loss of vehicle control, and sud-
den tyre failure leading to acci-
dents, injuries, and even death.
Always check the tyres for proper
inflation before driving. For prop-
er tyre pressures, refer to “Tyres
and wheels” in section 9.
• Driving on tyres with no or insuf-
ficient tread is dangerous. Worn-
out tyres can result in loss of
vehicle control, collisions, injury,
and even death. Worn-out tyres
should be replaced as soon as
possible and should never be
used for driving. Always check
the tyre tread before driving your
car. For further information and
tread limits, refer to “Tyres and
wheels” in section 7.

TYRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM (TPMS) (IF EQUIPPED)
Low Tyre Pressure Telltale/
TPMS Malfunction IndicatorEach tyre, including the spare (if pro-
vided), should be checked monthly
when cold and inflated to the inflation
pressure recommended by the vehi-
cle manufacturer on the vehicle plac-
ard or tyre inflation pressure label. (If
your vehicle has tyres of a different
size than the size indicated on the
vehicle placard or tyre inflation pres-
sure label, you should determine the
proper tyre inflation pressure for
those tyres.)
As an added safety feature, your
vehicle has been equipped with a
tyre pressure monitoring system
(TPMS) that illuminates a low tyre
pressure telltale when one or more
of your tyres is significantly under-
inflated.Accordingly, when the low tyre pres-
sure telltale illuminates, you should
stop and check your tyres as soon as
possible, and inflate them to the
proper pressure. Driving on a signifi-
cantly under-inflated tyre causes the
tyre to overheat and can lead to tyre
failure. Under-inflation also reduces
fuel efficiency and tyre tread life, and
may affect the vehicle’s handling and
stopping ability.
Please note that the TPMS is not a
substitute for proper tyre mainte-
nance, and it is the driver’s responsi-
bility to maintain correct tyre pres-
sure, even if under-inflation has not
reached the level to trigger illumina-
tion of the TPMS low tyre pressure
telltale.
WARNING
Over-inflation or under-inflation
can reduce tyre life, adversely
affect vehicle handling, and
lead to sudden tyre failure that
may cause loss of vehicle con-
trol resulting in an accident.

What to do in an emergency
Your vehicle has also been equipped
with a TPMS malfunction indicator to
indicate when the system is not
operating properly. The TPMS mal-
function indicator is combined with
the low tyre pressure telltale. When
the system detects a malfunction,
the telltale will flash for approximate-
ly one minute and then remain con-
tinuously illuminated. This sequence
will continue upon subsequent vehi-
cle start-ups as long as the malfunc-
tion exists. When the malfunction
indicator is illuminated, the system
may not be able to detect or signal
low tyre pressure as intended.
TPMS malfunctions may occur for a
variety of reasons, including the
installation of replacement or alter-
nate tyres or wheels on the vehicle
that prevent the TPMS from function-
ing properly. Always check the TPMS
malfunction telltale after replacing
one or more tyres or wheels on your
vehicle to ensure that the replace-
ment or alternate tyres and wheels
allow the TPMS to continue to func-
tion properly.✽NOTICE
If the TPMS Low Tyre Pressure
Telltale does not illuminate for three
seconds when the ignition switch is
in the ON position or when the
engine starts, or if it remains illumi-
nated after coming on for approxi-
mately three seconds, we recom-
mend that you contact a HYUNDAI
authorised repairer.
Low Tyre Pressure
Telltale
The TPMS is not a substitute for
manually checking tyre pressure with
a tyre pressure gauge. Changes in
temperature affect tyre pressure.
See “Tyres and Wheels” in chapter 9
for proper tyre inflating and tyre pres-
sure measurement procedures.
If the telltale illuminates, immediately
reduce your speed, avoid hard cor-
nering and anticipate increased stop-
ping distances. You should stop and
check your tyres as soon as possi-
ble. Inflate the tyres to the proper
pressure as indicated on the vehi-
cle’s placard or tyre inflation pres-
sure label located on the driver’s side
door jamb. If you cannot reach a
service station or if the tyre cannot
hold the newly added air, replace the
low pressure tyre with the spare tyre.

The Low Tyre Pressure Telltale will
remain on and the TPMS Malfunction
Indicator may blink for one minute
and then remain illuminated (when
the vehicle is driven approximately
10 minutes at speed above 25 km/h
(15.5 mph)) until you have the low
pressure tyre repaired and replaced
on the vehicle.
✽NOTICE
The spare tyre is not equipped with
a tyre pressure sensor.
TPMS Malfunction
Indicator
The TPMS Malfunction Indicator
comes on after it blinks for approxi-
mately one minute when there is a
problem with the Tyre Pressure
Monitoring System.
We recommend that the system be
checked by a HYUNDAI authorised
repairer.
✽NOTICE
The TPMS Malfunction Indicator
may illuminate after blinking for one
minute if the vehicle is near electric
power supply cables or radio trans-
mitters such as police stations, gov-
ernment and public offices, broad-
casting stations, military installations,
airports, transmitting towers, etc.
Additionally, the TPMS Malfunction
Indicator may illuminate if snow
chains are used or electronic devices
such as computers, chargers, remote
starters, navigation, etc. This may
interfere with normal operation of
the TPMS.
(Continued)
When you drive your vehicle
from a warm area to a cold area
or from a cold area to a warm
area, or the outside temperature
is greatly higher or lower, you
should check the tyre inflation
pressure and adjust the tyres to
the recommended tyre inflation
pressure.
CAUTION
In winter or cold weather, the
Low Tyre Pressure Telltale may
be illuminated if the tyre pres-
sure was adjusted to the recom-
mended tyre inflation pressure
in warm weather. It does not
mean your TPMS is malfunction-
ing because the decreased tem-
perature leads to a proportional
lowering of tyre pressure.
(Continued)
WARNING
• Significantly low tyre pres-
sure makes the vehicle unsta-
ble and can contribute to loss
of vehicle control and
increased braking distances.
• Continued driving on low
pressure tyres can cause the
tyres to overheat and fail.

What to do in an emergency
To prevent the jack, wheel lug nut
wrench and spare tyre from rattling
whilst the vehicle is in motion, store
them properly.CAUTION
Your vehicle has metric threads
on the wheel studs and nuts.
Make certain during wheel
removal that the same nuts that
were removed are reinstalled -
or, if replaced, that nuts with
metric threads and the same
chamfer configuration are used.
Installation of a non-metric
thread nut on a metric stud or
vice-versa will not secure the
wheel to the hub properly and
will damage the stud so that it
must be replaced.
Note that most lug nuts do not
have metric threads. Be sure to
use extreme care in checking
for thread style before installing
aftermarket lug nuts or wheels.
If in doubt, we recommend that
you consult a HYUNDAI autho-
rised repairer.
WARNING- Wheel studs
If the studs are damaged, they
may lose their ability to retain
the wheel. This could lead to the
loss of the wheel and a collision
resulting in serious injuries.
WARNING - Inadequate
spare tyre pressure
Check the inflation pressures as
soon as possible after installing
the spare tyre. Adjust it to the
specified pressure, if necessary.
Refer to “Tyres and wheels” sec-
tion 9.
