Driving your vehicle
Before entering vehicle
• Be sure that all windows, outside mir-
ror(s), and outside lights are clean.
• Visually check the tires for uneven
wear and damage.
• Check under the vehicle for any sign of
leaks.
• Be sure there are no obstacles behind
you if you intend to back up.
Before starting
• Make sure the hood, the tailgate, and
the doors are securely closed and
locked.
• Adjust the position of the seat and
steering wheel.
• Adjust the inside and outside rearview
mirrors.
• Verify all lights work.
• Fasten your seatbelt. Check that all
passengers have fastened their seat-
belts.
• Check the gauges and indicators in the
instrument panel and the messages on
the instrument display when the igni-
tion switch is in the ON position.
• Check that any items you are carrying
are stored properly or fastened down
securely.
BEFORE DRIVING
WARNING
All passengers must be properly
belted whenever the vehicle is mov-
ing. Refer to “Seat belts” in chapter
3 for more information on their
proper use.
WARNING- Driving under
the influence of alcohol or
drugs
NEVER drink or take drugs and
drive. Drinking or taking drugs and
driving is dangerous and may
result in an accident and SERIOUS
INJURY or DEATH.
Drunk driving is the number one
contributor to the highway death
toll each year. Even a small amount
of alcohol will affect your reflexes,
perceptions and judgment. Just
one drink can reduce your ability to
respond to changing conditions
and emergencies and your reaction
time gets worse with each addition-
al drink.
Driving while under the influence of
drugs is as dangerous or more dan-
gerous than driving under the influ-
ence of alcohol.
You are much more likely to have a
serious accident if you drink or
take drugs and drive. If you are
drinking or taking drugs, don't
drive. Do not ride with a driver who
has been drinking or taking drugs.
Choose a designated driver or call
a taxi.

WARNING - Ignition switch
• NEVER turn the ignition switch
to the LOCK or ACC position
while the vehicle is in motion
except in an emergency. This will
result in the engine turning off
and loss of power assist for the
steering and brake systems. This
may lead to loss of directional
control and braking function,
which could cause an accident.
• Before leaving the driver's seat,
always make sure the shift lever
is in 1st gear (for manual
transaxle vehicle) or P (Park, for
automatic transaxle vehicle)
position, apply the parking brake,
and turn ignition switch to the
LOCK position. Unexpected vehi-
cle movement may occur if these
precautions are not followed.
• NEVER reach through the steer-
ing wheel for the ignition switch,
or any other control, while the
vehicle is in motion. The pres-
ence of your hand or arm in this
area may cause a loss of vehicle
control resulting in an accident.

Downshifting
Downshift when you must slow down in
heavy traffic or drive up a steep hill to
prevent engine load.
Also, downshifting reduces the chance of
stalling and can accelerate when you
need to increase your speed again.
When the vehicle is going downhill,
downshifting helps maintain safe speed
by providing brake power from the engine
and enables less wear on the brakes.
Good driving practices
• Never take the vehicle out of gear and
coast down a hill. This is extremely
dangerous.
• Don't "ride" the brakes. This can cause
the brakes and related parts to over-
heat and malfunction.
When you are driving down a long hill,
slow down and shift to a lower gear.
Engine braking will help slow down the
vehicle.
• Slow down before shifting to a lower
gear. This will help avoid over-revving
the engine, which can cause damage.
• Slow down when you encounter cross
winds. This gives you much better con-
trol of your vehicle.
• Be sure the vehicle is completely
stopped before you shift into R
(Reverse) to prevent damage to the
transaxle.
• Exercise extreme caution when driving
on a slippery surface. Be especially
careful when braking, accelerating or
shifting gears. On a slippery surface,
an abrupt change in vehicle speed can
cause the drive wheels to lose traction
and may cause loss of vehicle control
resulting in an accidentCAUTION
To prevent damage to the engine:
• When downshifting from 5th gear
to 4th gear, be careful not to inad-
vertently push the shift lever
sideways engaging the 2nd gear.
A drastic downshift may cause
the engine speed to increase to
the point the tachometer will
enter the red-zone.
• Do not downshift more than one
gear at a time or downshift the
gear when the engine is running
at high speed (5,000 RPM or high-
er).

Driving your vehicle
WARNING
To reduce the risk of SERIOUS
INJURY or DEATH:
• ALWAYS wear your seatbelt. In a
collision, an unbelted occupant is
significantly more likely to be
seriously injured or killed than a
properly belted occupant.
• Avoid high speeds when corner-
ing or turning.
• Do not make quick steering
wheel movements, such as sharp
lane changes or fast, sharp turns.
• The risk of rollover is greatly
increased if you lose control of
your vehicle at highway speeds.
• Loss of control often occurs if
two or more wheels drop off the
roadway and the driver over
steers to reenter the roadway.
• In the event your vehicle leaves
the roadway, do not steer sharply.
Instead, slow down before pulling
back into the travel lanes.
• HYUNDAI recommends you fol-
low all posted speed limits.

N (Neutral)
The wheels and transaxle are not
engaged.
Use N (Neutral) if you need to restart a
stalled engine, or if it is necessary to stop
with the engine ON. Shift into P (Park) if
you need to leave your vehicle for any
reason.
Always depress the brake pedal when
you are shifting from N (Neutral) to
another gear.
D (Drive)
This is the normal driving position. The
transaxle will automatically shift through
a 4-gear sequence, providing the best
fuel economy and power.
For extra power when passing another
vehicle or driving uphill, depress the
accelerator fully. The transaxle will auto-
matically downshift to the next lower gear
(or gears, as appropriate).
Sports mode
Whether the vehicle is stationary or in
motion, sports mode is selected by push-
ing the shift lever from the D (Drive) posi-
tion into the manual gate. To return to D
(Drive) range operation, push the shift
lever back into the main gate.
WARNING
Do not shift into gear unless your
foot is firmly on the brake pedal.
Shifting into gear when the engine
is running at high speed can cause
the vehicle to move very rapidly.
You could lose control and hit peo-
ple or objects.
WARNING
NEVER allow anyone to ride in a
seat with the headrest removed.
