Driving your vehicle
NEVER drink or take drugs and
drive.
Drinking or taking drugs and
driving is dangerous and may
result in an accident and SERI-
OUS 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, percep-
tions and judgment. Just one
drink can reduce your ability to
respond to changing conditions
and emergencies and your reac-
tion time gets worse with each
additional drink.
Driving while under the influ-
ence of drugs is as dangerous
or more dangerous than driving
under the influence of alcohol.
(Continued)
WARNING (Continued)
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 driv-
er or call a taxi.
To reduce the risk of SERIOUS
INJURY or DEATH, take the fol-
lowing precautions:
•ALWAYS wear your seat belt.
All passengers must be prop-
erly belted whenever the vehi-
cle is moving. For more infor-
mation, refer to "Seat Belts" in
chapter 2.
Always drive defensively.
Assume other drivers or pedes-
trians may be careless and
make mistakes.
Stay focused on the task of
driving. Driver distraction can
cause accidents.
Leave plenty of space between
you and the vehicle in front of
you.

Good Driving Practices
Never shift to P (Park) or N
(Neutral) to any other position with
the accelerator pedal depressed.
Never shift to P (Park) when the
vehicle is in motion.
Be sure the vehicle is completely
stopped before you attempt to shift
into R (Reverse) or D (Drive).
Do not shift to N (Neutral) when
driving. Doing so may result in an
accident.
Do not drive with your foot resting
on the brake pedal. Even light, but
consistent pedal pressure can
result in the brakes overheating,
brake wear and possibly even
brake failure.
Alway apply the parking brake
when parked on a sloped driveway
or hill when leaving the vehicle. Do
not depend on placing the gear in
P (Park) to keep the vehicle from
moving. Exercise extreme caution when
driving on a slippery surface. Be
especially careful when braking,
accelerating or shifting gears. Also,
avoid increasing the regenerative
braking level suddenly. On a slip-
pery surface, an abrupt change in
vehicle speed can cause the drive
wheels to lose traction and may
cause loss of vehicle control result-
ing in an accident
Optimum vehicle performance and
economy is obtained by smoothly
depressing and releasing the
accelerator.
To reduce the risk of SERIOUS
INJURY or DEATH:
ALWAYS wear your seat belt.
In a collision, an unbelted
occupant is significantly more
likely to be seriously injured
or killed than a properly belt-
ed occupant.
Avoid high speeds when cor-
nering or turning.
(Continued)
WARNING
(Continued)
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
follow all posted speed limits.
