SEAT BELT PRECAUTIONS

WARNING:All occupants of the vehicle must weartheir seat belts at all times. Note that thisvehicle is equipped with a SupplementalRestraint (Airbag) System as discussedbeginning on page 1-22. The seat beltsmust be used in conjunction with the sup-plemental airbag system. State laws re-quire that some or all occupants of thevehicle use seat belts. The possibility ofincreased injury or severity of injury in anaccident will be increased if this elemen-tary safety precaution is not observed.

5. Insert the headrests between the seatbackand the seat cushion.

6. To return the seatback to its normal posi-tion, push the seatback folding lever andreverse the above procedure.

o When you return the seatback to its uprightposition, always be sure it is locked intoposition by pulling and pushing on the topof the seatback.

WARNING:o The purpose of the fold-up rear seat

cushion and the fold-down rear seatback is to allow you to carry more ob-jects than could otherwise be accom-modated. Do not allow passengers tosit on the cargo area while the car ismoving. This is not a proper seatingposition and no seat belts are availablefor use when the seat back is foldeddown.This could result in serious injury ordeath in case of an accident or a sud-den stop. Objects should not extendhigher than the top of the frontseatbacks.This could allow cargo to slide forwardand cause injury or damage during sud-den stops.

o Make sure that the headrests are prop-erly fixed in place to minimize the riskof severe injury in case of an accident.

o When you return the rear seatback to itsupright position after being folded down,be careful not to damage the seatbeltwebbing or buckle. In addition, do notallow the seatbelt webbing or buckle toget caught or pinched in the rear seat.

B170A01E

You can adjust the height of the shoulder beltanchor to one of the 4 positions.If the height of the adjusting seat belt is toonear your neck, you will not be getting themost effective protection. The shoulder por-tion should be adjusted so that it lies acrossyour chest and midway over your shouldernearest the door and not your neck.To adjust the height of the seat belt anchor,lower or raise the height adjuster into anappropriate position. To raise the height ad-juster, pull it up. To lower it, push it down whilepressing the height adjuster button.Release the button to lock the anchor intoposition. Try sliding the release button tomake sure that it has locked into the position.

The shoulder belt can't do its job becauseit won't be against your body.Instead, it will be in front of you. In a crashyou could go into it with great force, re-ceiving serious neck or other injuries.The lap belt can't do its job either. In acrash the belt could go up over your abdo-men. The belt forces would be appliedthere, not at your pelvic bones.This could cause serious internal injuries.For proper protection when the vehicle isin motion, have the seatback upright.Then sit back in the seat and wear yourseat belt properly.

For small children and babies, the use of achild seat or infant seat is strongly recom-mended and may be required in your state.This child seat or infant seat should be ofappropriate size for the child and should beinstalled in accordance with the manufacturer'sinstructions. It is further recommended thatthe seat be placed in the vehicle's rear seatsince this can make an important contributionto safety. Your vehicle is provided with threechild restraint hook holders for installing thechild seat or infant seat.

B230B02O

This symbol indicates the location of userready tether anchorage.

o Since a safety belt or child restraintsystem can become very hot if it is leftin a closed vehicle, be sure and checkthe seat cover and buckles before plac-ing a child there.

o When the child restraint system is notin use, fasten it with a safety belt so thatit will not be thrown forward in the caseof a sudden stop or an accident.

o Children who are too large to be in achild restraint should sit in the rear seatand be restrained with the available lap/shoulder belts. Never allow children toride in the front passanger seat.

o Always make sure that the shoulder beltportion of the lap/shoulder belt is posi-tioned midway over the shoulder andnever across the neck or behind theback. Moving the child closer to thecenter of the vehicle may help provide agood shoulder belt fit. The lap belt por-tion of the lap/shoulder belt must al-ways be positioned as low as possibleon the child's hips, and as snug aspossible.

o If the seat belt will not properly fit thechild, we recommend the use of anapproved booster seat in the rear seatin order to raise the child's seatingheight so that the seat belt will properlyfit the child.Before purchasing a booster seat, makesure that it meets applicable FederalMotor Vehicle Safety Standards and that

o Never allow a child to stand up or kneelon the seat.

o Never use an infant carrier or a childsafety seat that "hooks" over a seatback;it may not provide adequate security inan accident.

o Never allow a child to be held in aperson's arms while they are in a mov-ing vehicle, as this could result in seri-ous injury to the child in the event of anaccident or a sudden stop. Holding achild in a moving vehicle does not pro-vide the child with any means of protec-tion during an accident, even if the per-son holding the child is wearing a seatbelt.

Pre-tensioner Seat BeltYour Hyundai vehicle is equipped with driver'sand front passenger's pre-tensioner seat belts.The purpose of the pre-tensioner is to makesure that the seat belts fit tightly against theoccupant's body in certain frontal collisions.The pre-tensioner seat belts can be activatedwith the airbags.

B180B01S

The pre-tensioner seat belt operates in thesame way as an Emergency Locking Retrac-tor (ELR) type of seat belt. When the vehiclestops suddenly, or if the occupant tries to leanforward too quickly, the seat belt retractor willlock into position. However, in certain frontalcollisions, the pre-tensioner will activate andpull the seat belt into tighter contact againstthe occupant's body.

The ISOFIX anchors are located between theseatback and the seat cushion of the rear seatleft and right outboard seating positions.Follow the child seat manufacturer's instruc-tions to properly install safety seats withISOFIX or ISOFIX-compatible attachments.

Once you have installed the ISOFIX childrestraint seat, assure that the seat is properlyattached to the ISOFIX and tether anchors.Also, test the safety seat before you place thechild in it. Tilt the seat from side to side. Alsotry to tug the seat forward. Check to see if theanchors hold the seat in place.

o Improper handling of the pre-tensionerseat belt assemblies, and failure to heedthe warnings to not strike, modify, in-spect, replace, service or repair the pre-tensioner seat belt assemblies may leadto improper operation or inadvertentactivation and serious injury.

o Always wear the seat belts when drivingor riding in a motor vehicle.

NOTE:o Both the driver's and front passenger's

pre-tensioner seat belts will be acti-vated in certain frontal collisions. Thepre-tensioner seat belts can be acti-vated with the airbags. The pre-tensioners will be activated under theseconditions even if the seat belts are notbeing worn at the time of the collision.

o When the pre-tensioner seat belts areactivated, a loud noise may be heardand fine dust, which may appear to besmoke, may be visible in the passengercompartment. These are normal operat-ing conditions and are not hazardous.

o Although it is harmless, the fine dustmay cause skin irritation and shouldnot be breathed for prolonged periods.Wash your hands and face thoroughlyafter an accident in which the pre-tensioner seat belts were activated.

CAUTION:o Because the sensor that activates the

SRS airbag is connected with pre-tensioner seat belt, the SRS airbag warn-ing light on the instrument panel willblink for approximately 6 seconds afterthe ignition key has been turned to the"ON" position, and then it should turnoff.

o If the pre-tensioner seat belt is not work-ing properly, this warning light will illu-minate even if there is no malfunction

of SRS airbag system. If the SRS airbagwarning light does not illuminate whenthe ignition key is turned to "ON" or if itremains illuminated after blinking forapproximately 6 seconds, or if it illumi-nates while the vehicle is being driven,please have an authorized Hyundai deal-er inspect the pre-tensioner seat belt orSRS airbag system as soon as pos-sible.

WARNING:o Pre-tensioners are designed to operate

only one time. After activation, pre-tensioner seat belts must be replaced.All seat belts, of any type, should al-ways be replaced after they have beenworn during a collision.

o The pre-tensioner seat belt assemblymechanisms become hot during activa-tion. Do not touch the pre-tensionerseat belt assemblies for several min-utes after they have been activated.

o Do not attempt to inspect or replace thepre-tensioner seat belts yourself. Thismust be done by an authorized Hyundaidealer.

o Front airbags are not intended to de-ploy in side-impact, rear-impact orrollover crashes. In addition, airbagswill not deploy in frontal crashes belowthe deployment threshold speed.

o The driver should sit back as far aspossible while still maintaining controlof the vehicle. If you are sitting tooclose to the airbag, it can cause deathor serious injury when it inflates.

o No objects should be placed over or nearthe airbag modules on the steering wheel,instrument panel, and the front passen-ger's panel above the glove box,because any such object could causeharm if the vehicle is in a crash severeenough to cause the airbags to deploy.

The Hyundai SRS consists of airbags in-stalled under the pad covers in the center ofthe steering wheel and the passenger’s sidefront panel above the glove box. The purposeof the SRS is to provide the vehicle’s driverand the front passenger with additional pro-tection when used together with the seat belt,in case of a frontal impact.

NOTE:Be sure to read information about the SRSon the labels provided on the backside ofthe sun visor and in the glove box.

WARNING:o As its name implies, the SRS is de-

signed to work with, and be supplemen-tal to, the driver’s and the passenger’sthree point seat belt systems and is nota substitute for them. Therefore, yourseat belts must be worn at all timeswhile the vehicle is in motion. Theairbags deploy only in certain frontalimpact conditions severe enough tolikely cause significant injury to thevehicle occupants.

o The SRS is designed to deploy theairbags only when an impact is suffi-ciently severe and when the impact an-gle is less than 30° from the forwardlongitudinal axis of the vehicle and willnot deploy in side, rear or rollover im-pacts. Additionally, the airbags will only

o If the airbags deploy, they must be re-placed by an authorized Hyundai dealer.

o Do not tamper with or disconnect SRSwiring, or other components of the SRSsystem. Doing so could result in injury,due to accidental firing of the airbags orby rendering the SRS inoperative.

o Do not install a child restraint system inthe front passenger seat position. Achild restraint system must never beplaced in the front seat. The infant orchild could be severely injured or killedby an airbag deployment in case of anaccident. Do not allow children to ridein the front passanger seat. If olderchildren (teenagers and older) must ridein the front seat, make sure they arealways propely belted and that the seatis moved back as far as possible.

o For maximum safety protection in alltypes of crashes, all occupants includ-ing the driver should always wear theirseat belts whether or not an airbag isalso provided at their seating positionto minimize the risk of severe injury ordeath in the event of a crash. Do not sitor lean unnecessarily close to the airbagwhile the vehicle is in motion.

o The SRS airbag system must deployvery rapidly to provide protection in acrash. If an occupant is out of positionbecause of not wearing a seat belt, theairbag may forcefully contact the occu-pant causing serious or fatal injuries.

Passenger's Airbag

Upon deployment, tear seams molded directlyinto the pad covers will separate under pres-sure from the expansion of the airbags. Fur-ther opening of the covers then allows fullinflation of the airbags.

A fully inflated airbag in combination with aproperly worn seat belt slows the driver’s orthe passenger’s forward motion, thus reduc-ing the risk of head or chest injury.

After complete inflation, the airbag immedi-ately starts deflating, enabling the driver tomaintain forward visibility.

The airbag modules are located both in thecenter of the steering wheel and in the frontpassenger’s panel above the glove box.When the SRSCM detects a considerableimpact to the front of the vehicle, it will auto-matically deploy the airbags.

SRS Components and Functions

SSA1110B

The SRS consists of the following compo-nents:

- Driver’s Airbag Module- Passenger’s Airbag Module- Knee Bolster- SRS Service Reminder Indicator (SRI)- SRS Control Module (SRSCM)

The SRSCM continually monitors all elementswhile the ignition is "ON" to determine if afrontal or near-frontal impact is severe enoughto require airbag deployment.

SSA1110C

The SRS service reminder indicator (SRI) onthe instrument panel will blink for about 6seconds after the ignition key is turned to the"ON" position or after the engine is started,after which the SRI should go out.

warm water and a mild soap after anaccident in which the airbags were de-ployed.

o The SRS can function only when theignition key is in the "ON" position. Ifthe SRS SRI does not come on, orcontinuously remains on, after flashingfor about 6 seconds when the ignitionkey is turned to the "ON" position, orafter the engine is started, or comes onwhile driving, the SRS is not workingproperly. If this occurs, have your ve-hicle immediately inspected by yourHyundai dealer.

o Before you replace a fuse or disconnecta battery terminal, turn the ignition keyto the "LOCK" position or remove theignition key. Never remove or replacethe air bag related fuse(s) when theignition key is in the "ON" position.Failure to heed this warning will causethe SRS SRI to illuminate.

CAUTION:When installing the container of liquid airfreshener inside a vehicle, do not place itnear the instrument cluster nor on theinstrument panel pad surface. If there isany leakage from the air freshener ontothese areas (Instrument cluster, instrumentpanel pad or air ventilator), it may damagethese parts. If the liquid from the air fresh-ener does leak onto these areas, washthem with water immediately.

WARNING:o When the SRS is activated, there may

be a loud noise and fine dust will bereleased throughout the vehicle. Theseconditions are normal and are not haz-ardous. However, the fine dust generat-ed during airbag deployment may causeskin irritation. Be sure to wash yourhands and face thoroughly with luke-

Your Hyundai is equipped with a side impactairbag in each front seat. The purpose of theairbag is to provide the vehicle's driver and/orthe front passenger with additional protectionthan that offered by the seat belt alone. Theside impact airbags are designed to deployonly during certain side-impact collisions, de-pending on the crash severity, angle, speedand point of impact. The side impact air bagsare not designed to deploy in all side impactsituations.

WARNING:o Do not install a child restraint system in

the front passenger seat position.A child restraint system must never beplaced in the front seat. The infant orbaby could be severely injured or killedby an airbag deployment in case of anaccident.

o Modification to SRS components or wir-ing, including the addition of any kind ofbadges to the pad covers or modifica-tions to the body structure, can adverselyaffect SRS performance and lead to pos-sible injury.

o For cleaning the airbag pad covers, useonly a soft, dry cloth or one which hasbeen moistened with plain water. Sol-vents or cleaners could adversely affectthe airbag covers and proper deploy-ment of the system.

B240C01AB990B03Y

WARNING:o For best protection from the side im-

pact airbag system and to avoid beinginjured by the deploying side impactairbag, both front seat occupants shouldsit in an upright position with the seatbelt properly fastened. The driver'shands should be placed on the steeringwheel at the 9:00 and 3:00 o'clock posi-tions. The passenger's arms and handsshould be placed in their laps.

o Do not use any accessory seat covers.o Use of seat covers could reduce or

prevent the effectiveness of the system.o Do not install any accessories on the

side or near the side impact airbag.o Do not use excessive force on the side

of the seat.o Do not place any objects over the airbag

or between the airbag and yourself.

Side airbagsensor

o Do not place any objects (an umbrella,bag, etc.) between the front door andthe front seat. Such objects may be-come dangerous projectiles and causeinjury if the supplemental side impactair bag inflates.

o To prevent unexpected deployment ofthe side impact air bag that may resultin personal injury,avoid impact to theside airbag sensor when the ignitionkey is on.

B240C01A-AAT

SRS Careo The SRS is virtually maintenance free and

there are no parts you can safely service byyourself. The entire SRS system must beinspected by an authorized Hyundai dealerin 10 years after the date that the vehiclewas manufactured.

o Any work on the SRS system, such asremoving, installing, repairing, or any workon the steering wheel must be performedby a qualified Hyundai technician. Improperhandling of the airbag system may result inserious personal injury.


1- 27

o No objects should be placed over ornear the airbag modules on the steeringwheel, instrument panel, and the frontpassenger’s panel above the glove box,because any such object could causeharm if the vehicle is in a crash severeenough to cause the airbags to inflate.

o If the airbags inflate, they must be re-placed by an authorized Hyundai dealer.

o Do not tamper with or disconnect SRSwiring, or other components of the SRSsystem. Doing so could result in injury,due to accidental firing of the airbags orby rendering the SRS inoperative.

o If components of the airbag system mustbe discarded, or if the vehicle must bescrapped, certain safety precautionsmust be observed. Your Hyundai dealerknows these precautions and can giveyou the necessary information. Failureto follow these precautions and proce-dures could increase the risk of per-sonal injury.

o If you sell your vehicle, be sure to informthe new owner of these important pointsand make certain that this manual istransferred to the new owner.

o If your car was flooded and has soakedcarpeting or water on the floor, youshouldn't try to start the engine; havethe car towed to an authorized Hyundaidealer.

Operation Tipso If the interior of the car is hot when you first

get in, open the windows for a few minutesto expel the hot air.

o When you are using the air conditioningsystem, keep all windows closed to keephot air out.

o When moving slowly, as in heavy traffic,shift to a lower gear. This increases enginespeed, which in turn increases the speedof the air conditioning compressor.

o On steep grades, turn the air conditioningoff to avoid the possibility of the engineoverheating.

o During winter months or in periods whenthe air conditioning is not used regularly,run the air conditioning once every monthfor a few minutes. This will help circulatethe lubricants and keep your system inpeak operating condition.

FM broadcasts are transmitted at high fre-quency and do not bend to follow the earth'ssurface. Because of this, FM broadcasts gen-erally begin to fade at short distances from thestation. Also, FM signals are easily affectedby buildings, mountains, or other obstruc-tions. These can result in certain listeningconditions which might lead you to believe aproblem exists with your radio. The followingconditions are normal and do not indicateradio trouble:

FM radio station

SSAR011A

AM receptionIonosphere

AM broadcasts can be received at greaterdistances than FM broadcasts. This is be-cause AM radio waves are transmitted at lowfrequency. These long, low frequency radiowaves can follow the curvature of the earthrather than travelling straight out into theatmosphere. In addition, they curve aroundobstructions so that they can provide bettersignal coverage.

B750A02A-AAT

STEREO SOUND SYSTEMHow Car Audio Works

FM reception

AM and FM radio signals are broadcast fromtransmitter towers located around your city.They are intercepted by the radio antenna onyour car. This signal is then received by theradio and sent to your car speakers.When a strong radio signal has reached yourvehicle, the precise engineering of your audiosystem ensures high quality reproduction.However, in some cases the signal coming toyour vehicle is not strong and clear. This canbe due to factors such as the distance fromthe radio station, closeness of other strongradio stations or the presence of buildings,bridges or other large obstructions in the area.

Using a cellular phone or a two-wayradioWhen a cellular phone is used inside thevehicle, noise may be produced from theaudio equipment. This does not mean thatsomething is wrong with the audio equipment.In such a case, use the cellular phone at aplace as far as possible from the audio equip-ment.

CAUTION:When using a communication system sucha cellular phone or a radio set inside thevehicle, a separate external antenna mustbe fitted. When a cellular phone or a radioset is used with an internal antenna alone,it may interfere with the vehicle's electricalsystem and adversely affect safe operationof the vehicle.

WARNING:Don't use a cellular phone when you aredriving, you must stop at a safe place touse a cellular phone.

SSAR014A

o Station Swapping - As a FM signal weak-ens, another more powerful signal near thesame frequency may begin to play. This isbecause your radio is designed to lockonto the clearest signal. If this occurs,select another station with a stronger sig-nal.

o Multi-Path Cancellation - Radio signals be-ing received from several directions cancause distortion or fluttering. This can becaused by a direct and reflected signalfrom the same station, or by signals fromtwo stations with close frequencies. If thisoccurs, select another station until the con-dition has passed.

SSAR013A

o Fading - As your car moves away from theradio station, the signal will weaken andsound will begin to fade. When this occurs,we suggest that you select another stron-ger station.

o Flutter/Static - Weak FM signals or largeobstructions between the transmitter andyour radio can disturb the signal causingstatic or fluttering noises to occur. Reduc-ing the treble level may lessen this effectuntil the disturbance clears.

CARE OF CASSETTE TAPES

YL11240B

Handle your disc as shown. Do not drop thedisc. Hold the disc so you will not leavefingerprints on the surface. If the surface isscratched, it may cause the pickup to skipsignal tracks. Do not affix tape, paper, orgummed labels on the disc. Do not write onthe disc.

Damaged DiscDo not attempt to play damaged, warped orcracked discs. These could severely damagethe playback mechanism.

StorageWhen not in use, place your discs in theirindividual case and store them in a cool placeaway from the sun, heat, and dust.

YL11250B

Keep Your Discs CleanFingerprints, dust, or soil on the surface of adisc could cause the pickup to skip signaltracks. Wipe the surface clean with a cleansoft cloth. If the surface is heavily soiled,dampen a clean soft cloth in a solution of mildneutral detergent to wipe it clean. See draw-ing.

SSAR040B

Proper care of your cassette tapes will extendthe tape life and increase your listening enjoy-ment. Always protect your tapes and cassettecases from direct sunlight, severely cold anddusty conditions. When not in use, cassettesshould always be stored in the original protec-tive cassette case. When the vehicle is veryhot or cold, allow the interior temperature tobecome more comfortable before listening toyour cassettes.

o Never leave a cassette inserted in theplayer when not being played. This coulddamage the tape player unit and the cas-sette tape.

o We strongly recommend against the use oftapes longer than C-60 (60 minutes total).Tapes such as C-120 or C-180 are verythin and do not perform as well in theautomotive environment.

B860A01O

o Be sure that the cassette label is not looseor peeling off or tape ejection may bedifficult.

o Never touch or soil the actual audio tapesurfaces.

o Keep all magnetized objects, such as elec-tric motors, speakers or transformers awayfrom your cassette tapes and tape playerunit.

o Store cassettes in a cool, dry place withthe open side facing down to prevent dustfrom settling in the cassette body.

o Avoid repeated fast reverse usage to re-play one given tune or tape section. Thiscan cause poor tape winding to occur, andeventually cause excessive internal dragand poor audio quality in the cassette. Ifthis occurs, it can sometimes be correctedby fast winding the tape from end to endseveral times.

SSAR042B

Head

Cotton applicator

If this does not correct the problem, do notcontinue to use the tape in your vehicle.

o The playback head, capstan and pinchrollers will develop a coating of tape resi-due that can result in deterioration of soundquality, such as a wavering sound. Theyshould be cleaned monthly using a com-mercially available head cleaning tape orspecial solution available from audio spe-cialty shops. Follow the supplier’s direc-tions carefully and never oil any part of thetape player unit.

o Always be sure that the tape is tightlywound on its reel before inserting in theplayer. Rotate a pencil in the drive sprock-ets to wind up any slack.

SSAR053B

NOTE:Look at a tape before you insert it. If thetape is loose, tighten it by turning one ofthe hubs with a pencil or your finger. If thelabel is peeling off, do not put it in the drivemechanism.Do not leave tapes sitting where they areexposed to hot, warm, or high humidity,such as on top of the dashboard or in theplayer. If a tape is exposed to extreme heator cold, let it reach a moderate temperaturebefore putting it in the player.

Good Driving PracticesGood Driving PracticesGood Driving PracticesGood Driving PracticesGood Driving Practiceso Never take the car out of gear and coast

down a hill. This is extremely hazardous.Always leave the car in gear.

o Don’t "ride" the brakes. This can causethem to overheat and malfunction. Instead,when you are driving down a long hill, slowdown and shift to a lower gear. When you dothis, engine braking will help slow the car.

o Slow down before shifting to a lower gear.This will help avoid over-revving the engine,which can cause damage.

o Slow down when you encounter cross winds.This gives you much better control of yourcar.

o Be sure the car is completely stopped be-fore you attempt to shift into reverse. Thetransaxle can be damaged if you do not. Toshift into reverse, depress the clutch, movethe shift lever to neutral, wait three seconds,then shift to the reverse position.

o Exercise extreme caution when driving on aslippery surface. Be especially careful whenbraking, accelerating or shifting gears. On aslippery surface, an abrupt change in vehi-cle speed can cause the drive wheels tolose traction and the vehicle to go out ofcontrol.

o Do not "ride" the brakes. This can causethem to overheat and malfunction. Instead,when you are driving down a long hill, slowdown and shift to a lower gear. When you dothis, engine braking will help slow the car.

o Slow down before shifting to a lower gear.Otherwise, the lower gear may not be en-gaged.

Full-time 4WD ve-hicles are designed primarily to improve trac-tion and performance on paved roads and high-ways in wet and/or slippery conditions. Occa-sional off-road use such as established un-paved roads and trails is OK. It is alwaysimportant when traveling off-highway that thedriver carefully reduce their speed to a levelthat does not exceed the safe operating speedfor those conditions. In general, off-road condi-tions provide less traction and braking effec-tiveness than on road conditions. These factorsmust be carefully considered when driving off-road. Keeping the vehicle in contact with thedriving surface and under control in these con-ditions is always the driver's responsibility forthe safety of him/herself and his or her passen-gers.

The features of thislimited-slip differential are described below:Just as with a conventional differential, thewheel on one side is allowed to turn at adifferent speed from the wheel on the other sidewhen the vehicle is cornering. The differencebetween the limited-slip differential and a con-ventional differential is that if the wheel on oneside of the vehicle loses traction, a greateramount of torque is applied to the rear wheel onthe other side to improve traction.

tions or areas that exceed the vehicle'sbasic design intent or the driver's experi-ence level.

(3) Drive at lower speeds in strong cross-winds. Because of your vehicle’s high cen-ter of gravity, its stability will be affected incrosswinds. Slower speeds ensure bettervehicle control.

(4) Check the brake condition after driving inwet or muddy conditions. Press the brakeseveral times as you move slowly until youfeel normal braking forces return.

(5) Do not drive the vehicle through water.(i.e. streams, rivers, lakes, etc.)

(6) The stopping distance of the full-time 4WDvehicle differs very little from that of the2WD vehicle.When driving on a snow-coverd road or aslippery, muddy surface, make sure thatyou keep a sufficient distance betweenyour vehicle and the one ahead of you.

(7) Since the driving torque is always appliedto the 4 wheels, the performance of thefull-time 4WD vehicle is greatly affected bythe condition of the tires. Be sure to equipit with all four tires of the same size andtype.

o After being parked, check to be sure theparking brake is not engaged and that theparking brake indicator light is out beforedriving away.

o Driving through water may get the brakeswet. They can also get wet when the car iswashed. Wet brakes can be dangerous!Your car will not stop as quickly if the brakesare wet. Wet brakes may cause the car topull to one side. To dry the brakes, apply thebrakes lightly until the braking action returnsto normal, taking care to keep the car undercontrol at all times. If the braking action doesnot return to normal, stop as soon as it issafe to do so and call your Hyundai dealerfor assistance.

o Don’t coast down hills with the car out ofgear. This is extremely hazardous. Keep thecar in gear at all times, use the brakes toslow down, then shift to a lower gear so thatengine braking will help you maintain a safespeed.

o Don’t "ride" the brake pedal. Resting yourfoot on the brake pedal while driving can be

dangerous because it can result in the brakesoverheating and losing their effectiveness. Italso increases the wear of the brake compo-nents.

o If a tire goes flat while you are driving, applythe brakes gently and keep the car pointedstraight ahead while you slow down. Whenyou are moving slowly enough for it to besafe to do so, pull off the road and stop in asafe place.

o If your car is equipped with an automatictransaxle, don’t let your car creep forward.To avoid creeping forward, keep your footon the brake pedal when the car is stopped.

o Use caution when parking on a hill. Engagethe parking brake and place the gear selec-tor lever in "P" (automatic transaxle) or infirst or reverse gear (manual transaxle). Ifyour car is facing downhill, turn the frontwheels into the curb to help keep the carfrom rolling. If your car is facing uphill, turnthe front wheels away from the curb to helpkeep the car from rolling. If there is no curbor if it is required by other conditions to keepthe car from rolling, block the wheels.

o Under some conditions your parking brakecan freeze in the engaged position. This ismost likely to happen when there is an ac-cumulation of snow or ice around or near therear brakes or if the brakes are wet. If thereis a risk that the parking brake may freeze,apply it only temporarily while you put thegear selector lever in "P" (automatic) or infirst or reverse gear (manual transaxle) and

DRIVING FOR ECONOMYDRIVING FOR ECONOMYDRIVING FOR ECONOMYDRIVING FOR ECONOMYDRIVING FOR ECONOMYYou can save fuel and get more miles from yourcar if you follow these suggestions:

o Drive smoothly. Accelerate at a moderaterate. Don't make "jack-rabbit" starts or full-throttle shifts and maintain a steady cruisingspeed. Don't race between stoplights. Try toadjust your speed to that of the other trafficso you don't have to change speeds unnec-essarily. Avoid heavy traffic whenever pos-sible. Always maintain a safe distance fromother vehicles so you can avoid unneces-sary braking. This also reduces brake wear.

o Drive at a moderate speed. The faster youdrive, the more fuel your car uses. Driving ata moderate speed, especially on the high-way, is one of the most effective ways toreduce fuel consumption.

o Don't "ride" the brake or clutch pedal. Thiscan increase fuel consumption and alsoincrease wear on these components. In ad-dition, driving with your foot resting on thebrake pedal may cause the brakes to over-heat, which reduces their effectiveness andmay lead to more serious consequences.

it is necessary to select tires equivalent in sizeand type of the original equipment tires. Failureto do so may adversely affect the safety andhandling of your car. Furthermore, speeding,rapid acceleration, sudden brake applications,and sharp turns are potentially very hazardouspractices.During deceleration, use engine braking to thefullest extent. Sudden brake applications onsnowy or icy roads may cause skids to occur.You need to keep sufficient distance betweenthe vehicle in operation in front and your ve-hicle. Also, apply the brake gently. It should benoted that installing tire chains on the tire willprovide a greater driving force, but will notprevent side skids.

running smoothly, you can drive away. Invery cold weather, however, give your en-gine a slightly longer warm-up period.

o Don't "lug" or "over-rev" the engine. Luggingis driving too slowly in too high a gearresulting in the engine bucking. If this hap-pens, shift to a lower gear. Over-revving isracing the engine beyond its safe limit. Thiscan be avoided by shifting at the recom-mended speeds.

o Use your air conditioning sparingly. The airconditioning system is operated by enginepower so your fuel economy is reducedwhen you use it.

o Take care of your tires. Keep them inflatedto the recommended pressure. Incorrect in-flation, either too much or too little, results inunnecessary tire wear. Check the tire pres-sures at least once a month.

o Be sure that the wheels are aligned correct-ly. Improper alignment can result from hittingcurbs or driving too fast over irregular sur-faces. Poor alignment causes faster tirewear and may also result in other problemsas well as greater fuel consumption.

o Keep your car in good condition. For betterfuel economy and reduced maintenancecosts, maintain your car in accordance withthe maintenance schedule in Section 5. Ifyou drive your car in severe conditions,more frequent maintenance is required (seeSection 5 for details).

o Keep your car clean. For maximum service,your Hyundai should be kept clean and freeof corrosive materials. It is especially impor-tant that mud, dirt, ice, etc. not be allowed toaccumulate on the underside of the car. Thisextra weight can result in increased fuelconsumption and also contribute to corro-sion.

o Travel lightly. Don't carry unnecessary weightin your car. Weight reduces fuel economy.

o Don't let the engine idle longer than neces-sary. If you are waiting (and not in traffic),turn off your engine and restart only whenyou're ready to go.

o Remember, your Hyundai does not requireextended warm-up. As soon as the engine is

4. To maintain engine braking efficiency andelectrical charging performance, do not usefifth gear (manual transaxle) or overdrive(automatic transaxle).

5. Always secure items in the trailer to preventload shift while driving.

6. Check the condition and air pressure of alltires on the trailer and your car. Low tirepressure can seriously affect the handling.Also check the spare tire.

7. The vehicle/trailer combination is more af-fected by crosswind and buffeting.When being passed by a large vehicle, keepa constant speed and steer straight ahead.If there is too much wind buffeting slowdown to get out of the other vehicle's airturbulence.

8. When parking your car and trailer, especial-ly on a hill, be sure to follow all the normalprecautions. Turn your front wheel into thecurb, set the parking brake firmly, and putthe transaxle in 1st or Reverse (manual) orPark (automatic). In addition, place wheelchocks at each of the trailer's tires.

9. If the trailer has electric brakes, start yourvehicle and trailer moving, and then apply thetrailer brake controller by hand to be sure thebrakes are working. This lets you check yourelectrical connection at the same time.

10.During your trip, check occasionally to besure that the load is secure, and that thelights and any trailer brakes are still working.

Keep Your Car CleanKeep Your Car CleanKeep Your Car CleanKeep Your Car CleanKeep Your Car CleanThe best way to prevent corrosion is to keepyour car clean and free of corrosive materials.Attention to the underside of the car is particu-larly important.

o If you live in a high-corrosion area — whereroad salts are used, near the ocean, areaswith industrial pollution, acid rain, etc.—,you should take extra care to prevent corro-sion. In winter, hose off the underside ofyour car at least once a month and be sureto clean the underside thoroughly when win-ter is over.

o When cleaning underneath the car, giveparticular attention to the components underthe fenders and other areas that are hiddenfrom view. Do a thorough job; just dampen-ing the accumulated mud rather than wash-ing it away will accelerate corrosion ratherthan prevent it. Water under high pressureand steam are particularly effective in re-moving accumulated mud and corrosivematerials.

o When cleaning lower door panels, rockerpanels and frame members, be sure thatdrain holes are kept open so that moisturecan escape and not be trapped inside to ac-celerate corrosion.

Some of thecommon causes of accelerated corrosion areroad salts, dust control chemicals, ocean airand industrial pollution.

E010B01A-AAT

Common Causes of CorrosionCommon Causes of CorrosionCommon Causes of CorrosionCommon Causes of CorrosionCommon Causes of CorrosionThe most common causes of corrosion on yourcar are:

o Road salt, dirt and moisture that is allowedto accumulate underneath the car.

o Removal of paint or protective coatings bystones, gravel, abrasion or minor scrapesand dents which leave unprotected metalexposed to corrosion.

E010D01A-AAT

Moisture Breeds CorrosionMoisture Breeds CorrosionMoisture Breeds CorrosionMoisture Breeds CorrosionMoisture Breeds CorrosionMoisture creates the conditions in which corro-sion is most likely to occur. For example, cor-rosion is accelerated by high humidity, particu-larly when temperatures are just above freez-ing. In such conditions, the corrosive material iskept in contact with the car surfaces by mois-ture that is slow to evaporate.Mud is particularly corrosive because it is slowto dry and holds moisture in contact with thevehicle. Although the mud appears to be dry, itcan still retain the moisture and promote corro-sion.High temperatures can also accelerate corro-sion of parts that are not properly ventilated sothe moisture can be dispersed. For all thesereasons, it is particularly important to keep yourcar clean and free of mud or accumulations ofother materials. This applies not only to thevisible surfaces but particularly to the undersideof the car.

WASHING AND WAXINGWASHING AND WAXINGWASHING AND WAXINGWASHING AND WAXINGWASHING AND WAXINGWashing Your HyundaiWashing Your HyundaiWashing Your HyundaiWashing Your HyundaiWashing Your HyundaiNever wash your car when the surface is hotfrom being in the sun. Always wash your car inthe shade.

Wash your car frequently. Dirt is abrasive andcan scratch the paint if it is not removed. Airpollution or acid rain may damage the paint andtrim through chemical action if pollutants areallowed to remain in contact with the surface. Ifyou live near the ocean or in an area whereroad salts or dust control chemicals are used,you should pay particular attention to the under-side of the car. Start by rinsing the car toremove dust and loose dirt. In winter, or if youhave driven through mud or muddy water, besure to thoroughly clean the underside as well.Use a hard direct stream of water to removeaccumulations of mud or corrosive materials.Use a good quality car-washing solution andfollow the manufacturer’s directions on the pack-age. These are available at your Hyundai dealeror auto parts outlet. Don’t use strong householddetergents, gasoline, strong solvents or abra-sive cleaning powders as these may damagethe finish.Use a clean sponge or cloth, rinse it frequentlyand don’t damage the finish by rubbing toohard. For stubborn spots, dampen them fre-quently and remove them a little at a time.

To clean whitewall tires, use a stiff brush orsoapy steel-wool scouring pad.

To clean plastic wheel covers, use a cleansponge or soft cloth and water.

To clean cast aluminum alloy wheels, use amild soap or neutral detergent. Do not useabrasive cleaners. Protect the bare-metal sur-faces by cleaning, polishing and waxing. Be-cause aluminum is subject to corrosion, be sureto give aluminum alloy wheels special attentionin winter. If you drive on salted roads, clean thewheels thoroughly afterwards.

After washing, be sure to rinse thoroughly. Ifsoapy water dries on the finish, streaking willresult.

When the weather is warm and the humiditylow, you may find it necessary to rinse eachsection immediately after washing to avoidstreaking.

After rinsing, dry the car using a damp chamoisor soft, absorbent cloth. The reason for dryingthe car is to remove water from the car so it willdry without water spots. Don’t rub, this candamage the finish.

If you find any nicks or scratches in the paint,use touch-up paint to cover them to preventcorrosion. To protect the paintwork of the caragainst corrosion, you must clean your Hyundai(at least once a month). Give special attentionto the removal of salt, mud and other substanc-

es on the underside of the splashboards of thecar. Make sure that the outlets and the under-side of the doors are open. Paint damage canbe caused by small accumulation of tar, indus-trial precipitation, tree resin, insects and birddroppings, when not removed immediately. Ifwater alone is not strong enough to remove theaccumulated dirt, use a mild car washing solu-tion. Be sure to rinse the surface after washingto remove the solution. Never allow the solutionto dry on the painted surfaces.

All Hyundai vehicles are equipped with a mono-lith type three-way catalytic converter to re-duce the carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons andnitrogen oxides contained in the exhaust gas.Exhaust gases passing through the catalyticconverter cause it to operate at a very hightemperature. The introduction of large amountsof unburned gasoline into the exhaust maycause the catalytic converter to overheat andcreate a fire hazard. This risk may be reducedby observing the following:

The original tires on your car have tread wearindicators. The tread wear indicators appearwhen the tread depth is 0.06 in. (1.6 mm). Thetire should be replaced when these appear as asolid bar across two or more grooves of thetread. Always replace your tires with those ofthe recommended size. If you change wheels,the new wheel's rim width and offset must meetHyundai specification.

These quality grades are molded on thesidewall.

Treadwear -Treadwear -Treadwear -Treadwear -Treadwear - The tread wear grade is a com-parative rating based on the wear rate of the tirewhen tested under controlled conditions on aspecified government test course. For exam-ple, a tire graded 150 would wear one and a half(1 - 1/2) times as well on the governmentcourse as a tire graded 100. The relative perfor-mance of tires depends upon the actual condi-tions of their use, however, and may departsignificantly from the norm due to variations indriving habits, service practices and differenc-es in road characteristics and climate.

Traction AA, A, B, C -Traction AA, A, B, C -Traction AA, A, B, C -Traction AA, A, B, C -Traction AA, A, B, C - The traction grades,from highest to lowest, are AA, A, B, and C.Those grades represent the tire's ability to stopon wet pavement as measured under controlledconditions on specified government test surfac-es of asphalt and concrete. A tire marked Cmay have poor traction performance.
