Detergent Fuel Additives
HYUNDAI recommends that you use
good quality gasolines treated with
detergent additives such as TOP TIER
Detergent Gasoline, which help prevent
deposit formation in the engine. These
gasolines will help the engine run
cleaner and enhance performance of
the Emission Control System. For more
information on TOP TIER Detergent
Gasoline, please go to the website (www.
toptiergas.com).
For customers who do not use TOP Tier
Detergent Gasoline regularly, and have
problems starting or the engine does
not run smoothly, detergent-based
fuel additives that you can purchase
separately may be added to the gasoline.
If TOP TIER Detergent Gasoline is
not available, one bottle of additive
added to the fuel tank according to the
maintenance schedule is recommended
(refer to the Maintenance Schedule in
chapter 8).
Additives are available from your
authorized HYUNDAI dealer along with
information on how to use them. Do not
mix other additives.
Operation in foreign countries
If you are going to drive your vehicle in
another country, be sure to:

[Observe all regulations regarding
registration and insurance.

[Determine that acceptable fuel is
available.
[This vehicle should not be modified.
Modification of your vehicle could
affect its performance, safety or
durability and may even violate
governmental safety and emissions
regulations.
In addition, damage or performance
problems resulting from any
modification may not be covered
under warranty.

[If you use unauthorized electronic
devices, it may cause the vehicle to
operate abnormally, wire damage,
battery discharge and fire. For your
safety, do not use unauthorized
electronic devices.

PROCESS
By following a few simple precautions for
the first 600 miles (1,000 km) you may
add to the performance, economy and
life of your vehicle.

[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
emergencies, to allow the brakes to
seat properly.

Parking Brake & Brake Fluid
Warning Light
This warning light illuminates:

[When you place the ignition switch to
the ON position.
- The parking brake light illuminates
for about 3 seconds and will then
turn off once the parking brake is
released.

[Whenever the parking brake is
applied.

[Whenever the brake fluid level in the
reservoir is low.
- If the warning light illuminates
with the parking brake released, it
indicates that the brake fluid level in
the reservoir is low.
If the brake fluid level in the reservoir is
low:
1. Drive carefully to the nearest safe
location and stop your vehicle.
2. With the engine stopped, check
the brake fluid level immediately
and add fluid as required (For more
information, refer to "Brake Fluid" in
chapter 8). After adding brake fluid,
check all brake components for fluid
leaks. If a brake fluid leak is found, or
if the warning light remains on, or if
the brakes do not operate properly, do
not drive the vehicle. Have the vehicle
inspected by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer.
Dual-diagonal braking system
Your vehicle is equipped with
dualdiagonal braking systems. This
means you still have braking on two
wheels even if one of the dual systems
should fail.
With only one of the dual systems
working, more than normal pedal travel
and greater pedal pressure is required to
stop the vehicle.
Also, the vehicle will not stop in as short
a distance with only a portion of the
brake system working.
If the brakes fail while you are driving,
shift to a lower gear for additional engine
braking and stop the vehicle as soon as it
is safe to do so.
WARNING
Parking Brake & Brake Fluid Warning
Light
Driving the vehicle with a warning light
ON is dangerous. If the Parking Brake &
Brake Fluid Warning Light illuminates
with the parking brake released, it
indicates that the brake fluid level is
low.
In this case, have the vehicle inspected
by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.

NOTICE
During cold weather, shifting may be
difficult until the transmission lubricant
has warmed up.
Using the clutch
The clutch pedal should be depressed all
the way before:
- Starting the engine
The engine will not start without
depressing the clutch pedal.
- Shifting into gear, up shifting to the
next higher gear, or down shifting to
the next lower gear.
When releasing the clutch pedal, release
it slowly. The clutch pedal should always
be fully released while driving.
CAUTION
To prevent unnecessary wear or
damage to the clutch:

[Do not rest your foot on the clutch
pedal while driving.

[Do not hold the vehicle with the
clutch on an incline, while waiting for
the traffic light, etc.

[Always depress the clutch pedal
down fully to prevent noise or
damage.

[Do not depress the clutch pedal
again until it is fully released.

[Do not start in 2nd (second) gear
except when you are in slippery road
conditions.

[Do not drive with cargo loaded more
than required loading capacity.
Downshifting
Down shift to a lower gear when slowing
down in heavy traffic or driving up a
steep hill to prevent high engine loads.
Also, downshifting reduces the chance
of stalling and helps reaccelerate the
vehicle when you need to increase your
speed.
When the vehicle is going downhill,
downshifting helps maintain safe speed
by providing engine braking (brake
power from the engine) and results in
less wear on the brakes.
NOTICE
To prevent damage to the engine,
clutch and transmission:

[When downshifting from 5
th
gear to 4th gear, be careful not to
inadvertently push the shift lever
sideways engaging the 2
nd gear. A
drastic downshift may cause the
engine speed to increase to the
point the tachometer will enter
the redzone and may cause engine
damage.

[Do not downshift more than two
gear at a time or downshift the gear
when the engine is running at high
speed (5,000 RPM or higher).
Such down shifting may damage the
engine, clutch and the transmission.

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
overheat 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
control of your vehicle.

[Be sure the vehicle is completely
stopped before you shift into R
(Reverse) to prevent damage to the
transmission.

[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
accident.
WARNING
Do not use aggressive engine braking
(shifting from a higher gear to a lower
gear) on slippery roads. This could
cause the tires to slip and may result in
an accident.
WARNING
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 belted occupant.

[Avoid high speeds when cornering 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 follow all
posted speed limits.

Good Driving Practices

[Never move the shift lever from P
(Park) or N (Neutral) to any other
position with the accelerator pedal
depressed.

[Never move the shift lever into 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 move the shift lever to N
(Neutral) when driving. Doing so may
result in an accident because of a loss
of engine braking.

[Driving uphill or downhill, always shift
to D (Drive) when driving forward or to
R (Reverse) when driving backwards,
and check the gear position indicated
on the cluster before driving. If you
drive in the opposite direction of the
selected gear, the engine will turn
off and a serious accident might be
occurred due to the degraded brake
performance.

[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.

[Do not hold the vehicle on the incline
with the accelerator pedal. This can
cause the transmission to overheat.
Always use the brake pedal or parking
brake.

[Depressing both accelerator
and brake pedals at the same
time can trigger logic for engine
power reduction to assure vehicle
deceleration. Vehicle acceleration
will resume after the brake pedal is
released.

[Always apply the parking brake when
leaving the vehicle. Do not depend on
placing the transmission 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. 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
accident.

[Optimum vehicle performance and
economy is obtained by smoothly
depressing and releasing the
accelerator.
WARNING
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 belted occupant.

[Avoid high speeds when cornering 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 follow all
posted speed limits.

BRAKE SYSTEM
Power Brakes
Your vehicle has power-assisted brakes
that adjust automatically through normal
usage.
If the engine is not running or is turned
off while driving, the power assist for
the brakes will not work. You can still
stop your vehicle by applying greater
force to the brake pedal than typical.
The stopping distance, however, will be
longer than with power brakes.
When the engine is not running, the
reserve brake power is partially depleted
each time the brake pedal is applied.
Do not pump the brake pedal when the
power assist has been interrupted.
Only pump the brakes on slippery
surfaces if the power assist has been
interrupted to maintain steering control.
Do not pump the brakes on slippery
surfaces if the brakes are operating
normally.
WARNING
Take the following precautions:

[Do not drive with your foot resting
on the brake pedal. This will create
abnormal high brake temperatures,
excessive brake lining and pad wear,
and increased stopping distances.

[When descending down a long or
steep hill, move the gear shift lever
to Manual Shift Mode and manually
downshift to a lower gear in order
to control your speed without using
the brake pedal excessively. Applying
the brakes continuously will cause
the brakes to overheat and could
result in a temporary loss of braking
performance.

[Wet brakes may impair the vehicle's
ability to safely slow down; the
vehicle may also pull to one side
when the brakes are applied.
Applying the brakes lightly will
indicate whether they have been
affected in this way. Always test your
brakes in this fashion after driving
through deep water. To dry the
brakes, lightly tap the brake pedal to
heat up the brakes while maintaining
a safe forward speed until brake
performance returns to normal.
Avoid driving at high speeds until the
brakes function correctly.
Disc Brakes Wear Indicator
When your brake pads are worn and new
pads are required, you will hear a high
pitched warning sound from your front
or rear brakes. You may hear this sound
come and go or it may occur whenever
you depress the brake pedal.
Note that some driving conditions or
climates may cause a brake squeal
when you first apply (or lightly apply)
the brakes. This is normal and does not
indicate a problem with your brakes.
NOTICE
To avoid costly brake repairs, do not
continue to drive with worn brake pads.
Information
Always replace brake pads as complete
front or rear axle sets.
Rear drum brakes (if equipped)
Your rear drum brakes do not have wear
indicators. Therefore, have the rear brake
linings inspected if you hear a rear brake
rubbing noise. Also have your rear brakes
inspected each time you change or
rotate your tires and when you have the
front brakes replaced.
