FUEL RECOMMENDATIONSUse Unleaded Gasoline

Unleaded gasoline with a Pump Octane Ratingof 87 (Research Octane Number 91) or highermust be used in Hyundai vehicle. If leaded gaso-line is used, it will cause the catalytic converter tobecome ineffective and the emission controlsystem to malfunction.This can also result in increased maintenanceexpense. To avoid accidental use of leaded fuel,the larger nozzle used with leaded gasoline atservice stations can not be inserted into fuel tankopening of Hyundai vehicle.

NOTE:o For some countries, Hyundai vehicles are

designed to use leaded gasoline. Whenyou are going to use leaded gasoline, askto Hyundai dealer whether leaded gaso-line in your vehicle is available or not.

o Octane Rating of leaded gasoline is samewith unleaded one.

CHILD RESTRAINT SYSTEM(If installed)Children riding in the car should sit in the rearseat and must always be restrained to minimizethe risk of injury in an accident, sudden stop orsudden maneuver. According to accident statis-tics, children are safer when properly restrainedin the rear seats than in the front seat. Largerchildren should use one of the seat belts pro-vided.You are required by law to use safety restraintsfor children. If small children ride in your vehicleyou must put them in a child restraint system(safety seat).Children could be injured in a crash if theirrestraints are not properly secured. For smallchildren and babies, a child seat or infant seatmust be used. Before buying a particular childrestraint system, make sure it fits your car seatand seat belts, and fits your child. Follow all theinstructions provided by the manufacturer wheninstalling the child restraint system.

WARNING:o A child restraint system must be placed in

the rear seat. Never install a child or infantseat on the front passenger's seat.Should an accident occur and cause thepassenger side airbag to deploy, it couldseverely injure or kill an infant or childseated in an infant or child seat.

After installation of the child restraint system, tryto move it in all directions to be sure the childrestraint system is securely installed.If you need to tighten the belt, pull more webbingtoward the retractor. When you unbuckle theseat belt and allow it to retract, the retractor willautomatically revert back to its normal seatedpassenger emergency locking usage condition.

NOTE:o Before installing the child restraint sys-

tem, read the instructions supplied by thechild restraint system manufacturer.

o If the seat belt does not operate as de-scribed, have the system checked imme-diately by your authorized Hyundai dealer.

WARNING:Do not install any child restraint system in thefront passenger seat. Should an accidentoccur and cause the passenger side airbagto deploy, it could severely injure or kill aninfant or child seated in an infant or childseat. Therefore, only use a child restraintsystem in the rear seat of your vehicle.

o Since a safety belt or child restraint sys-tem can become very hot if it is left in aclosed vehicle, be sure to check the seatcover and buckles before placing a childthere.

o When the child restraint system is not inuse, fasten it with a safety belt so that itwill not be thrown forward in the case of asudden stop or an accident.

o Children who are too large to be in a childrestraint should sit in the rear seat and berestrained with the available lap/shoulderbelts. Never allow children to ride in thefront passenger seat.

o Always make sure that the shoulder beltportion of the outboard lap/shoulder beltis positioned midway over the shoulder,never across the neck. Moving the childcloser to the center of the vehicle may helpprovide a good shoulder belt fit. The lapbelt portion of the lap/shoulder belt or thecenter seat lap belt must always be posi-tioned as low as possible on the child'ships and as snug as possible.

o If the seat belt will not properly fit thechild, we recommend the use of an ap-proved booster seat in the rear seat inorder to raise the child's seating height sothat the seat belt will properly fit the child.

o Never allow a child to stand up or kneel onthe seat.

o Never use an infant carrier or child safetyseat that "hooks" over a seatback; it may

not provide adequate security in an acci-dent.

o Never allow a child to be held in a person'sarms while they are in a moving vehicle, asthis could result in serious injury to thechild in the event of an accident or asudden stop. Holding a child in a movingvehicle does not provide the child withany means of protection during an acci-dent, even if the person holding the childis wearing a seat belt.

Pre-tensioner Seat Belt (If installed)Ordinarily the pre-tensioner seat belt operates inthe same way as E.L.R (Emergency LockingRetractor) type (When vehicles stop suddenly,the belt will lock into the position. It will alsolock if you try to lean forward too quickly.).However, when vehicles crash, the retractorrewinds the belt webbing. This will restrain thepassenger movement quickly and also reducethe slack between passenger and belt webbing.

NOTE:o When the pre-tensioner seat belt is acti-

vated, there may be an explosion noise.This noise is normal and is not hazardous.

o Pre-tensioner seat belt is designed to op-erate only when a sufficiently severe im-pact occurs and it will be only operatedonce.

WARNING:If the pre-tensioner seat belt was activated,never attempt to replace it by yourself. It mustbe replaced by an authorized Hyundai Dealer.

SRS Components and Functions

o For maximum safety protection in all typesof crashes, all occupants including thedriver should always wear their seat beltswhether or not an airbag is also providedat their seating position to minimize therisk of severe injury or death in the eventof a crash. Do not sit or lean unnecessarilyclose to the airbag while the vehicle is inmotion.

o The SRS airbag system must deploy veryrapidly to provide protection in a crash. Ifan occupant is out of position because ofnot wearing a seat belt, the airbag mayforcefully contact the occupant causingserious or fatal injuries.

B240C01X

WARNING:o As its name implies, the SRS is designed

to work with, and be supplemental to, thedriver's and the passenger's three pointseat belt systems and is not a substitutefor them. Therefore, your seat belts mustbe worn at all times while the vehicle is inmotion. The airbags deploy only in certainfrontal impact conditions severe enoughto likely cause significant injury to thevehicle occupants.

o The SRS is designed to deploy the airbagsonly when an impact is sufficiently severeand when the impact angle is less than 30°from the forward longitudinal axis of thevehicle and will not deploy in side, rear orrollover impacts. Additionally, the airbagswill only deploy once. Thus, seat beltsmust be worn at all times.

Rear impact

Side impactRollover

o Front airbags are not intended to deployin side-impact, rear-impact or rollover

crashes. In addition, airbags will not de-ploy in frontal crashes below the deploy-ment threshold speed.

o The driver should sit back as far as possi-ble while still maintaining control of thevehicle. If you are sitting too close to theairbag, it can cause death or serious injurywhen 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, becauseany such object could cause harm if thevehicle is in a crash severe enough tocause the airbags to deploy.

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. A childrestraint system must never be placed inthe front seat. The infant or child could beseverely injured or killed by an airbagdeployment in case of an accident.Do not allow children to ride in the frontpassenger seat. If also children(teenagersand older) must ride in the front seat,make sure they are always properly beltedand that the seat is moved back as far aspossible.

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

The airbag modules are located both in thecenter of the steering wheel and in the frontpassenger's panel above the glove box. Whenthe SRSCM detects a considerable impact to thefront of the vehicle, it will automatically deploy theairbags.

The SRS consists of the following components:

- Driver's Airbag Module- Passenger's Airbag Module- SRS Service Reminder Indicator (SRI)- SRS Control Module (SRSCM)

The SRSCM continually monitors all elementswhile the ignition is "ON" to determine if a frontalor near-frontal impact is severe enough to re-quire airbag deployment.

Upon deployment, tear seams molded directlyinto the pad covers will separate under pressurefrom the expansion of the airbags. Further open-ing of the covers then allows full inflation of theairbags.

A fully inflated airbag in combination with a prop-erly worn seat belt slows the driver's or thepassenger's forward motion, thus reducing therisk of head or chest injury.

After complete inflation, the airbag immediatelystarts deflating, enabling the driver to maintainforward visibility.

CAUTION:When installing a container of liquid air fresh-ener inside a vehicle, do not place it near theinstrument cluster nor on the instrument panelpad surface. If there is any leakage from theair freshener onto these areas (Instrument

to the body structure, can adversely affectSRS performance and lead to possibleinjury.

o For cleaning the airbag pad covers, useonly a soft, dry cloth or one which hasbeen moistened with plain water. Solventsor cleaners could adversely affect theairbag covers and proper deployment ofthe system.

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, becauseany such object could cause harm if thevehicle is in a crash severe enough tocause 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 Do not install a child restraint system inthe front passenger seat position.A child restraint system must never beplaced in the front seat. The infant or childcould be severely injured by an airbagdeployment in case of an accident.

o If components of the airbag system mustbe discarded, or if the vehicle must bescrapped, certain safety precautions mustbe observed. Your Hyundai dealer knowsthese precautions and can give you the

cluster, instrument panel pad or air ventila-tor), it may damage these parts. If the liquidfrom the air freshener does leak onto theseareas, wash them with water immediately.

WARNING:o When the SRS is activated, there may be a

loud noise and fine dust will be releasedthrough out the vehicle. These conditionsare normal and are not hazardous. How-ever, the fine dust generated during airbagdeployment may cause skin irritation. Besure to wash your hands and face thor-oughly with lukewarm water and a mildsoap after an accident in which the airbagswere deployed.

o The SRS can function only when the igni-tion key is in the "ON" position. If the SRSSRI does not come on, or continuouslyremains on, after flashing for about 6 sec-onds when the ignition key is turned tothe "ON" position, or after the engine isstarted, or comes on while driving, theSRS is not working properly. If this oc-curs, have your vehicle immediately in-spected by your Hyundai dealer.

o Before you replace a fuse or disconnect abattery terminal, turn the ignition key tothe "LOCK" position or remove the igni-tion key. Never remove or replace the airbag related fuse(s) when the ignition keyis in the "ON" position. Failure to heed thiswarning will cause the SRS SRI to illumi-nate.

B240C01Y-GAT

SRS CareThe SRS is virtually maintenance-free and sothere are no parts you can safely service byyourself. The entire SRS system must be in-spected by an authorized Hyundai dealer in 10years after the date that the vehicle was manu-factured.

Any work on the SRS system, such as removing,installing, repairing, or any work on the steeringwheel must be performed by a qualified Hyundaitechnician. Improper handling of the SRS sys-tem may result in serious personal injury.

WARNING:o Extreme Hazard! Do not use a rearward

facing child restraint on a seat protectedby an airbag in front of it!

o Modification to SRS components or wir-ing, including the addition of any kind ofbadges to the pad covers or modifications

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

get in, open the windows for a few minutes toexpel the hot air.

o When you are using the air conditioning sys-tem, keep all windows closed to keep hot airout.

o When moving slowly, as in heavy traffic, shiftto a lower gear. This increases engine speed,which in turn increases the speed of the airconditioning compressor.

o On steep grades, turn the air conditioner offto avoid the possibility of the engine over-heating.

o During winter months or in periods when theair conditioning is not used regularly, run theair conditioning once every month for a fewminutes. This will help circulate the lubricantsand keep your system in peak operatingcondition.

For dehumidified heating:o Turn on the fan control switch.o Turn on the air conditioning switch.o Set the air intake control to the position.o Set the air flow control to the position.o Adjust the fan control to the desired speed.o For more rapid action, set the fan at one of the

higher speeds.o Adjust the temperature control to provide the

desired amount of warmth.

AM reception

AM broadcasts can be received at greater dis-tances than FM broadcasts. This is because AMradio waves are transmitted at low frequency.These long, low frequency radio waves canfollow the curvature of the earth rather thantravelling straight out into the ionosphere. Inaddition, they curve around obstructions so thatthey can provide better signal coverage.

B750A02A-AAT

STEREO SOUND SYSTEMHow Car Audio Works

Ionosphere

FM reception

SSAR010A

AM and FM radio signals are broadcast fromtransmitter towers located around your city. Theyare intercepted by the radio antenna on your car.This signal is then received by the radio and sentto your car speakers.When a strong radio signal has reached yourvehicle, the precise engineering of your audiosystem ensures high quality reproduction. How-ever, in some cases the signal coming to yourvehicle is not strong and clear. This can be dueto factors such as the distance from the radiostation, closeness of other strong radio stationsor the presence of buildings, bridges or otherlarge obstructions in the area.

FM broadcasts are transmitted at high frequencyand do not bend to follow the earth's surface.Because of this, FM broadcasts generally beginto fade at short distances from the station. Also,FM signals are easily affected by buildings, moun-tains, or other obstructions. These can result incertain listening conditions which might lead youto believe a problem exists with your radio. Thefollowing conditions are normal and do not indi-cate radio trouble:

Using a cellular phone or a two-wayradioWhen a cellular phone is used inside the vehicle,noise may be produced from the audio equip-ment. This does not mean that something iswrong with the audio equipment. In such a case,use the cellular phone at a place as far aspossible from the audio equipment.

CAUTION:When using a communication system suchas a cellular phone or a radio inside thevehicle, a separate external antenna must befitted. When a cellular phone or a radio set isused with an internal antenna alone, it mayinterfere with the vehicle's electrical systemand adversely affect safe operation of thevehicle.

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

SSAR013A

o Fading - As your car moves away from theradio station, the signal will weaken and soundwill begin to fade. When this occurs, wesuggest that you select another stronger sta-tion.

o Flutter/Static - Weak FM signals or largeobstructions between the transmitter and yourradio can disturb the signal causing static orfluttering noises to occur. Reducing the treblelevel may lessen this effect until the distur-bance clears.

SSAR014A

o Station Swapping - As a FM signal weakens,another more powerful signal near the samefrequency may begin to play. This is becauseyour radio is designed to lock onto the clearestsignal. If this occurs, select another stationwith a stronger signal.

o Multi-Path Cancellation - Radio signals beingreceived from several directions can causedistortion or fluttering. This can be caused bya direct and a reflected signal from the samestation, or by signals from two stations withclose frequencies. If this occurs, select anoth-er station until the condition has passed.

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 protectivecassette case. When the vehicle is very hot orcold, allow the interior temperature to becomemore comfortable before listening to your cas-settes.

o Never leave a cassette inserted in the playerwhen not being played. This could damagethe tape player unit and the cassette 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 very thinand do not perform as well in the automotiveenvironment.

o Be sure that the cassette label is not loose orpeeling off or tape ejection may be difficult.

o Never touch or soil the actual audio tapesurfaces.

o Keep all magnetized objects, such as electricmotors, speakers or transformers away fromyour cassette tapes and tape player unit.

o Store cassettes in a cool, dry place with theopen side facing down to prevent dust fromsettling in the cassette body.

o Avoid repeated fast reverse usage to replayone given tune or tape section. This cancause poor tape winding to occur, and even-tually cause excessive internal drag and pooraudio quality in the cassette. If this occurs, itcan sometimes be corrected by fast windingthe tape from end to end several times. If thisdoes not correct the problem, do not continueto use the tape in your vehicle.

o The playback head, capstan and pinch rollerswill develop a coating of tape residue that canresult in deterioration of sound quality, suchas a wavering sound. They should be cleanedmonthly using a commercially available headcleaning tape or special solution availablefrom audio specialty shops. Follow the suppli-er's directions carefully and never oil any partof the tape player unit.

o Always be sure that the tape is tightly woundon its reel before inserting in the player.Rotate a pencil in the drive sprockets to windup any slack.

SSAR053B

NOTE:Look at a tape before you insert it. If the tapeis loose, tighten it by turning one of the hubswith a pencil or your finger. If the label ispeeling off, do not put it in the drive mecha-nism.Do not leave tapes sitting where they areexposed to hot, warm, or high humidity, suchas on top of the dashboard or in the player. Ifa tape is exposed to extreme heat or cold, letit reach a moderate temperature before put-ting it in the player.

2. DRIVING YOUR HYUNDAIC010A01A-AAT

WARNING: ENGINE EXHAUST CAN BE DANGEROUS!

Engine exhaust fumes can be extremely dangerous. If, at any time, you smell exhaust fumes inside the vehicle, open thewindows immediately.

o Do not inhale exhaust fumes.Exhaust fumes contain carbon monoxide, a colorless, odorless gas that can cause unconsciousness and death byasphyxiation.

o Be sure the exhaust system does not leak.The exhaust system should be checked whenever the vehicle is raised to change the oil or for any other purpose. If you heara change in the sound of the exhaust or if you drive over something that strikes the underneath side of the car, have theexhaust system checked as soon as possible by your Hyundai dealer.

o Do not run the engine in an enclosed area.Letting the engine idle in your garage, even with the garage door open, is a hazardous practice. Never run the engine in yourgarage any longer than it takes to start the engine and back the car out.

o Avoid idling the engine for prolonged periods with people inside the car.If it is necessary to idle the engine for a prolonged period with people inside the car, be sure to do so only in an open areawith the air intake set at "Fresh" and the fan operating at one of the higher speeds so fresh air is drawn into the interior.If you must drive with the tail gate open because you are carrying objects that make this necessary:

1. Close all windows.2. Open side vents.3. Set the air intake control at "Fresh", the air flow control at "Floor" or "Face" and the fan at one of the higher speeds.

To assure proper operation of the ventilation system, be sure the ventilation air intakes located just in front of the windshieldare kept clear of snow, ice, leaves or other obstructions.

BEFORE STARTING THE ENGINEBefore you start the engine, you should always:

1. Look around the vehicle to be sure there areno flat tires, puddles of oil, water or otherindications of possible trouble.

2. After entering the car, check to be sure theparking brake is engaged.

3. Check that all windows, and lights are clean.4. Check that the interior and exterior mirrors

are clean and in position.5. Check your seat, seatback and headrest to

be sure they are in their proper positions.6. Lock all the doors.7. Fasten your seat belt and be sure that all

other occupants have fastened theirs.8. Turn off all lights and accessories that are

not needed.9. When you turn the ignition switch to "ON",

check that all appropriate warning lights areoperating and that you have sufficient fuel.

10.Check the operation of warning lights and allbulbs when key is in the "ON" position.

o To start the engine, insert the ignition keyand turn it to the "START" position. Releaseit as soon as the engine starts. Do not holdthe key in the "START" position for morethan 15 seconds.

NOTE:For safety, the engine will not start if theshift lever is not in "P" or "N" Position(Automatic Transaxle).

C040A01A-AAT

KEY POSITIONSWARNING:The engine should not be turned off or thekey removed from the ignition key cylinderwhile the vehicle is in motion. The steeringwheel is locked by removing the key.

o "START"The engine is started in this position. It willcrank until you release the key.

NOTE:Do not hold the key in the "START" positionfor more than 15 seconds.

o "ON"When the key is in the "ON" position, theignition is on and all accessories may be turnedon. If the engine is not running, the key shouldnot be left in the "ON" position. This will dis-charge the battery and may also damage theignition system.

o "ACC"With the key in the "ACC" position, the someelectrical accessories (radio etc.) may be oper-ated.

o "LOCK"The key can be removed or inserted in thisposition. To protect against theft, the steeringwheel locks by removing the key.

STARTING

Normal starting with either a cold or warmengine is obtained without pumping or depress-ing the accelerator pedal. Simply turn the key tothe "START" position and release when theengine starts. After the engine has started,allow the engine to run for 10 to 20 secondsprior to placing the vehicle in gear.The starter should not be operated for morethan 15 seconds at a time. Wait 15-30 secondsbetween starting attempts to protect the starterfrom overheating.

WARNING:Never run the engine in a closed or poorlyventilated area any longer than is needed tomove your car in or out of the area. Thecarbon monoxide gas emitted is odorlessand can cause serious injury or death.

C050B02X-GAT

Normal Conditions:The Starting Procedure:1. Insert key, and fasten the seat belt.2. Depress the clutch pedal fully (manual

transaxle) and place the gearshift lever inneutral (manual transaxle) or the selectorlever (automatic transaxle) in "P" (park)position.

3. After turning the ignition key to the "ON"position, make certain all warning lights andgauges are functioning properly before start-ing the engine.

WARNING:Be sure that the clutch is fully depressedwhen starting a manual transaxle vehicle.Otherwise, there is the potential to causedamage to the vehicle or injury to someoneinside or outside the vehicle as a result ofthe forward or backward movement of thevehicle that will occur if the clutch is notdepressed when the vehicle is started.

4. Turn the ignition key to the "Start" positionand release it when the engine starts.

OPERATING THE MANUAL TRANSAXLE

C070A01X

Your Hyundai's manual transaxle has a con-ventional shift pattern. This shift pattern is alsoimprinted on the shift knob. The transaxle isfully synchronized in all forward gears so shift-ing to either a higher or a lower gear is easilyaccomplished.

CAUTION:o Do not attempt to engage reverse gear

when the car is moving.o To avoid damaging the selector mecha-

nism, do not use the gear shift lever as ahand rest. Release the lever immediatelythe shift is completed.

o To avoid premature clutch wear, do notuse the clutch pedal as a foot rest, anddo not hold the vehicle on a gradientusing the clutch.

C050A01E


2- 4

C070B01X-GAT

Using the Clutch of Manual transaxleThe clutch should be pressed all the way to thefloor before shifting, then released slowly. Theclutch pedal should be always used after fullyreturning to the original position. Do not restyour foot on the clutch pedal while driving. Thiscan cause unnecessary wear. Do not partiallyengage the clutch to hold the car on an incline.This causes unnecessary wear. Use the park-ing brake to hold the car on an incline. Do notoperate the clutch pedal rapidly and repeatedly.

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 (manualtransaxle), move the shift lever to neutral,wait three seconds, then shift to the reverseposition.

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

CAUTION:o The risk of rollover is greatly increased if

you lose control of your vehicle at high-way speeds.

o Loss of control often occurs if two ormore wheels drop off the roadway andthe driver oversteers to reenter the road-way.

o In the event your vehicle leaves the road-way, do not steer sharply. Instead, slowdown before pulling back into the travellanes.

o In a collision crash, on unbelted personis significantly more likely to die than aperson wearing a seatbelt.

o Ensure that the engine is not over-revvedby upshifting.

o Do not coast with the shift lever at theneutral position.

o When descending long gradients, makeuse of the engine braking to assist thefootbrake to avoid brake fade or over-heating.

o When slippery conditions are encoun-tered, increased caution should be ex-ecuted when gear changing, braking oraccelerating. Abrupt changes in speedmay cause a loss of traction.

o To shift into reverse, rest the lever inneutral for at least 3 seconds after yourcar is completely stopped. Then movethe lever into the reverse position.

o During cold weather, shifting may be dif-ficult until the transaxle lubricant haswarmed up. This is normal and not harm-ful to the transaxle.

o If you 've come to a complete stop andit's hard to shift into 1st or R(Reverse),put the shift lever in N(Neutral) positionand let up on the clutch. Press the clutchpedal back down, and then shift into 1st

or R(Reverse) gear position.o Do not use the shift lever as a handrest

during driving, as this can result in pre-mature wear of the transaxle shift forks.

C070D01X-GAT

Good 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.

WARNING:When downshifting from fifth gear to fourthgear, caution should be taken not to inad-vertently press the gear shift lever sidewaysin such a manner that second gear is en-gaged. Such over revving of the engine maypossibly cause engine damage.

o L (Low gear):Use for driving up a very steep grade or forengine braking when descending steep hills.When downshifting to "L", the transaxle willtemporarily remain in second gear until thevehicle has slowed enough for low gear toengage. Do not exceed 50 km/h (30 mph) in lowgear."L" shifts to 1st gear only. However, shift up to2nd is performed when the car exceeds acertain speed and, as speed increases, thetransaxle will shift up to 3rd gear to preventover-revving the engine.

C090H01E-GAT

NOTE:o For smooth and safe operation, depress

the brake pedal when shifting from "Neu-tral" position or "Park" position to a for-ward or reverse gear.

o The brake pedal fully depressed in orderto move the shift lever from the "P"(Park) position to any of the other posi-tions.

o It is always possible to shift from "R","N", "D", "2", "L" position to "P" posi-tion. The vehicle must be fully stopped toavoid transaxle damage.

o Always apply the footbrake when shift-ing from "P" or "N", to "R", "D", "2" or"L" position.

o Do not use the "P" (Park) position inplace of the parking brake. Always setthe parking brake, shift the transaxle into"P" (Park) position and turn off the igni-tion when you leave the vehicle, evenmomentarily. Never leave the vehicleunattended while the engine is running.

o Check the automatic transaxle fluid levelregularly, and add fluid as necessary.

C090C01A-AAT

o R(Reverse):Use for backing up the vehicle. Bring the car toa complete stop before shifting the selectorlever to "R" position.

C090E01A-GAT

o D (Drive):Use for normal driving. The transaxle will auto-matically shift through a four-gear sequence,giving best economy and power. Never down-shift manually to "2" position or "L" positionwhen vehicle speed is more than 95 km/h (60mph).

C090D02A-AAT

o N (Neutral):In the "N" position, the transaxle is in neutralposition, which means that no gears are en-gaged. The engine can be started with the shiftlever in "N" position, although this is not recom-mended except if the engine stalls while the caris moving.

C090F01A-AAT

o 2 (Second gear):Use for driving on a slippery road, hill climbingor engine braking downhill. "2" automaticallyshifts between first and second gears.This means that no shift-up to 3rd gear isperformed. However, the shift-up to third gear isdone when the car speed exceeds a certainvalue to prevent the engine from over-revving.Manually move the selector to "D" returning tonormal driving condition.

C130A01A-AAT

GOOD BRAKING PRACTICESWARNING:Do not allow passengers to sit on the cargoarea while the car is moving as this is not aproper seating position and no seat beltsare available for use when the seat back isfolded down. This could result in seriousinjury or death in case of an accident or asudden stop. Objects should not extendhigher than the top of the front seats. Thiscould allow cargo to slide forward and causeinjury or damage during sudden stops.

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 and it may also pull to one side. Todry the brakes, apply the brakes lightly untilthe braking action returns to normal, takingcare to keep the car under control at alltimes. If the braking action does not return tonormal, stop as soon as it is safe to do soand call your Hyundai dealer for 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 Exercise extreme caution when driving on aslippery surface. Be especially careful whenbraking, accelerating or shifting gears. On aslippery surface, an abrupt change in ve-hicle speed can cause the drive wheels tolose traction and the vehicle to go out ofcontrol.

o Turn the overdrive switch on for good fueleconomy and smooth driving. If engine brak-ing is needed in the "D" range or if repeatedupshifting and downshifting between 3rd and4th gear is needed when climbing a gentleslope, it is recommended that the overdriveswitch be turned off. Turn the overdriveswitch back on immediately afterward.

CAUTION:o The risk of rollover is greatly increased if

you lose control of your vehicle at high-way speeds.

o Loss of control often occurs if two ormore wheels drop off the roadway andthe driver oversteers to reenter the road-way.

o In the event your vehicle leaves the road-way, do not steer sharply. Instead, slowdown before pulling back into the travellanes.

o In a collision crash, on unbelted personis significantly more likely to die than aperson wearing a seatbelt.

C090N02A-AAT

Good Driving Practiceso Never move the gear selector lever from "P"

or "N" to any other position with the acceler-ator pedal depressed.

o Never move the gear selector lever into "P"when the vehicle is in motion.

o Be sure the car is completely stopped be-fore you attempt to shift into "R".

o Never take the car out of gear and coastdown a hill. This may be extremely hazard-ous. Always leave the car in gear whenmoving.

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.

o Always use the parking brake. Do not de-pend on placing the transaxle in "P" to keepthe car from moving.

drive switch is turned off, the transaxle will notupshift to the overdrive gear. For normal driv-ing, the selector lever should be left in the "D"position and the overdrive switch turned on.If you need to accelerate rapidly, press theaccelerator pedal all the way to the floor. Thetransaxle will automatically shift to a lower gear,depending on the vehicle speed and load.

WARNING:Your ABS will not prevent accidents due toimproper or dangerous driving maneuvers.Even though vehicle control is improvedduring emergency braking, always maintaina safe distance between you and objectsahead. Vehicle speeds should always bereduced during extreme road conditions.The braking distance for cars equipped withan anti-lock braking system may be longerthan for those without it in the followingroad conditions.

o Driving on rough, gravel or snow-cov-ered roads.

o Driving with tire chains installed.o Driving on roads where the road surface

is pitted or has different surface height.

During these conditions the vehicle shouldbe driven at reduced speeds. The safetyfeatures of an ABS equipped vehicle shouldnot be tested by high speed driving or cor-nering. This could endanger the safety ofyourself or others.

C120A02A-AAT

ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM(If installed)The Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) is designedto prevent wheel lock-up during sudden brakingor on hazardous road surfaces. The ABS con-trol module monitors the wheel speed and con-trols the pressure applied to each brake. Thus,in emergency situations or on slick roads, ABSwill increase vehicle control during braking.

NOTE:During ABS operation, a slight pulsationmay be felt in the brake pedal when thebrakes are applied. Also, a noise may beheard in the engine compartment while brak-ing. These conditions are normal and indi-cate that the anti-lock brake system is func-tioning properly.

put the gear selector lever in "P" (automatic)or in first or reverse gear (manual transaxle)and block the rear wheels so the car cannotroll. Then release the parking brake.

o Do not hold the vehicle on the upgrade withthe accelerator pedal. This can cause thetransaxle to overheat. Always use the brakepedal or parking brake.

o Don't "ride" the brake pedal. Resting yourfoot on the brake pedal while driving can bedangerous 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 anaccumulation of snow or ice around or nearthe rear brakes or if the brakes are wet. Ifthere is a risk that the parking brake mayfreeze, apply it only temporarily while you

resulting 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.

SMOOTH CORNERINGAvoid braking or gear changing in corners,especially when roads are wet. Ideally, cornersshould always be taken under gentle accelera-tion. If you follow these suggestions, tire wearwill be held to a minimum.

C160A01A-AAT

WINTER DRIVINGThe more severe weather conditions of winterresult in greater wear and other problems. Tominimize the problems of winter driving, youshould follow these suggestions:

C160B01A-GAT

Snowy or Icy ConditionsTo drive your vehicle in deep snow, it may benecessary to use snow tires or to install tirechains on your tires. If snow tires are needed,it is necessary to select tires equivalent in sizeand type to the original equipment tires.

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 isrunning 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 gear

C140A01A-AAT

DRIVING FOR ECONOMYYou can save fuel and get more kilometers fromyour car 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.

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.

Failure to do so may adversely affect the safetyand handling of your car. Speeding, rapid accel-eration, sudden brake applications, and sharpturns are potentially very hazardous practices.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 front and your vehicle. Also, applythe brake gently.It should be noted that installing tire chains onthe tire will provide a greater driving force, butwill not prevent side skids.

NOTE:Tire chains are not legal in all provinces.Check province laws before fitting tirechains.

C160C01A-AAT

Use High Quality Ethylene GlycolCoolantYour Hyundai is delivered with high qualityethylene glycol coolant in the cooling system. Itis the only type of coolant that should be usedbecause it helps prevent corrosion in the cool-ing system, lubricates the water pump andprevents freezing. Be sure to replace or replen-ish your coolant in accordance with the main-tenance schedule in Section 5. Before winter,have your coolant tested to assure that itsfreezing point is sufficient for the temperaturesanticipated during the winter.

TRAILER OR VEHICLE TOWINGIf you are considering towing with your car, youshould first check with your Province Depart-ment of Motor Vehicles to determine their legalrequirements.Since laws vary from province to province therequirements for towing trailers, cars, or othertypes of vehicles or apparatus may differ. Askyour Hyundai dealer for further details beforetowing.

CAUTION:Do not do any towing with your car duringits first 2,000 km (1,200 miles) in order toallow the engine to properly break in. Fail-ure to heed this caution may result in seri-ous engine or transaxle damage.

C190B01S-AAT

Trailer HitchesSelect the proper hitch and ball combination,making sure that it's location is compatible withthat of the trailer or vehicle being towed.Use a quality non-equalizing hitch which distrib-utes the tongue load uniformly throughout thechassis.

The hitch should be bolted securely to the carand installed by a qualified technician. DO NOTUSE A HITCH DESIGNED FOR TEMPORARYINSTALLATION AND NEVER USE ONE THATATTACHES ONLY TO THE BUMPER.

C170A01A-AAT

HIGHER SPEED MOTORINGPre-Trip Inspections1. Tires:Adjust the tire inflation pressures to specifica-tion driving. Low tire inflation pressures willresult in overheating and possible failure of thetires.Avoid using worn or damaged tires which mayresult in reduced traction or tire failure.

NOTE:Never exceed the maximum tire inflationpressure shown on the tires.

2. Fuel, engine coolant and engine oil:High speed travel consumes 1.5 times morefuel than urban motoring. Do not forget to checkboth engine coolant and engine oil.

3. Drive belt:A loose or damaged drive belt may result inoverheating of the engine.

C180A01A-AAT

USE OF LIGHTSCheck your lights regularly for correct operationand always keep them clean. When drivingduring the day in conditions of poor visibility, itis helpful to drive with headlights on low beam.This enables you to be seen as well as to see.

NOTE:1. Never load the trailer with more weight in

the back than in the front. About 60% ofthe trailer load should be in the front halfon the trailer and the remaining 40% inthe rear.

2. The total gross vehicle weight with trailermust not exceed the Gross Vehicle WeightRating (GVWR) shown on the vehicle iden-tification plate (see page 8-1). The totalgross vehicle weight is the combinedweight of the vehicle, driver, all passen-gers and their luggage, cargo, hitch, trailertongue load and other optional equip-ment.

3. The front or rear axle weight must notexceed the Gross Axle Weight Rating(GAWR) shown on the vehicle identifica-tion plate (see page 8-1). It is possiblethat your towing package does not ex-ceed the GVWR but exceeds the GAWR.Improper trailer loading and/or too muchluggage in the trunk can overload therear axle. Redistribute the load and checkthe axle weight again.

4. The maximum permissible overhang ofthe coupling point is 570 mm.(ATOS VAN : 568mm)

Trailer BrakesIf your trailer is equipped with a braking system,make sure it conforms to federal and/or localregulations and that it is properly installed andoperating correctly.

NOTE:If you tow a trailer or vehicle, your car willrequire more frequent maintenance due tothe additional load. See "Maintenance Un-der Severe Usage Conditions" on page 5-4.

CAUTION:o Never connect a trailer brake system di-

rectly to the vehicle brake system.o When towing a trailer on steep grades (in

excess of 12%) pay close attention to theengine coolant temperature gauge toensure the engine does not overheat. Ifthe needle of the coolant temperaturegauge moves across the dial towards"H" (HOT), pull over and stop as soon asit is safe to do so, and allow the engine toidle until it cools down. You may proceedonce the engine has cooled sufficiently.

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 applythe trailer brake controller by hand to besure the brakes are working. This lets youcheck your electrical connection at the sametime.

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

WARNING:o The tongue load should never exceed;

Auto: 25kgManual : 28kg

o Maximun permissible mass of the cou-pling device (ATOS VAN only) : 20kg

CAUTION:A car with an automatic transaxle shouldnever be towed from the rear with the frontwheels on the ground. This can cause seri-ous damage to the transaxle. If the car mustbe towed from the rear, a towing dolly mustbe used under the front wheels.

If the car is being towed with the rear wheels onthe ground, be sure the parking brake is re-leased.

D080D02X-GAT

Emergency Towing

For emergency towing when no commercialtow vehicle is available, attach a tow cable,chain or strap to the two hooks under the frontof your car. Do not attempt to tow your vehiclein this manner on any unpaved surface. Thiscould result in serious damage to your car.Nor should it be attempted if the wheels, drivetrain, axles, steering or brakes are damaged.Before towing, be sure the transaxle is in neu-tral and the key is in "ACC" (with the engine off)or in the "ON" position (with the engine run-ning). A driver must be in the towed car to steerit and operate the brakes.

CAUTION:If the car is being towed with all four wheelson the ground, it can be towed only from thefront. Be sure that the transaxle is in neutral.Do not tow at speeds greater than 50 km/h(30 mph) and for more than 25 km (15 miles).Be sure the steering is unlocked by placingthe key in the "ACC" position. A driver mustbe in the towed vehicle to operate the steer-ing and brakes.

IF YOU LOSE YOUR KEYSIf you lose your keys, many Hyundai dealerscan make you a new key if you have your keynumber. If you lock the keys inside your car andyou cannot obtain a new key, many Hyundaidealers can use special tools to open the doorfor you.Information about the key of immobilizer sys-tem (If installed) will be found on page 1-2.

NOTE:Before towing, check the level of thetransaxle fluid. If it is below the "HOT" rangeon the dipstick, add fluid. If you cannot addfluid, a towing dolly must be used.

CORROSION PREVENTION AND APPEARANCE CARE

4-1

4. CORROSION PRE-VENTION & AP-PEARANCE CARE

E020A01A-AAT

TO HELP PREVENT CORROSIONYou can help prevent corrosion from gettingstarted by observing the following:

E020B01A-AAT

Keep 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.— youshould take extra care to prevent corrosion.In winter, hose off the underside of your carat least once a month and be sure to cleanthe underside thoroughly when winter isover.

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.

E010B01A-AAT

Common 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.

E010A01A-AAT

CORROSION PROTECTIONProtecting Your Hyundai from Corro-sionBy using the most advanced design and con-struction practices to combat corrosion, Hyundaiproduces cars of the highest quality. However,this is only part of the job. To achieve the longterm corrosion resistance your Hyundai candeliver, the owner's cooperation and assistanceis also required.

E010C01A-AAT

High-Corrosion AreasIf you live in an area where your car is regularlyexposed to corrosive materials, corrosion pro-tection is particularly important. Some of thecommon causes of accelerated corrosion areroad salts, dust control chemicals, ocean airand industrial pollution.

E010D01A-AAT

Moisture 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.

4-2

E020C01A-AAT

Keep Your Garage DryDon't park your car in a damp, poorly ventilatedgarage. This creates a favorable environmentfor corrosion. This is particularly true if youwash your car in the garage or drive it into thegarage when it is still wet or covered with snow,ice or mud. Even a heated garage can contrib-ute to corrosion unless it is well ventilated somoisture is dispersed.

E020D01A-AAT

Keep Paint and Trim in Good ConditionScratches or chips in the finish should be cov-ered with "touch-up" paint as soon as possibleto reduce the possibility of corrosion. If baremetal is showing through, the attention of aqualified body and paint shop is recommended.

E020E01A-AAT

Don't Neglect the InteriorMoisture can collect under the floor mats andcarpeting to cause corrosion. Check under themats periodically to be sure the carpeting is dry.Use particular care if you carry fertilizers, clean-ing materials or chemicals in the car.These should be carried only in proper contain-ers and any spills or leaks should be cleanedup, flushed with clear water and thoroughlydried.

E030A01A-AAT

WASHING AND WAXINGWashing 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 deal-er or auto parts outlet. Don't use strong house-hold detergents, gasoline, strong solvents orabrasive cleaning powders as these may dam-age the 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


4-3

(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.If water alone is not strong enough to removethe accumulated dirt, use a mild car washingsolution. Be sure to rinse the surface afterwashing to remove the solution. Never allowthe solution to dry on the painted surfaces.

E030C01A-AAT

Polishing and WaxingAlways wash and dry the car before polishingor waxing or using a combination cleaner andwax. Use a good quality commercial productand follow the manufacturer's directions on thecontainer. Polish and wax the bright trim piecesas well as the paint.

E030B01A-AAT

Spot CleaningDon't use gasoline, strong solvents or corrosivecleaning agents. These can damage the finishof the car. To remove road tar, use turpentineon a clean, soft cloth or commercially availablebug and tar remover. Be gentle.To remove dead insects or tree sap, use warmwater and mild soap or car-washing solution.Soak the spot and rub gently. If the paint haslost its luster, use a commercial car-cleaningpolish.

E030D01A-AAT

When to Wax AgainYou should polish and wax the car again whenwater no longer beads on a clean surface butspreads out over a larger area.

E030E01A-AAT

Maintaining BumpersSpecial precautions must be observed to pre-serve the appearance of the bumpers on yourHyundai. They are:

o Be careful not to spill battery electrolyte orhydraulic brake fluid on the bumpers. If youdo, wash it off immediately with clean water.

o Be gentle when cleaning the bumper sur-faces. They are made of soft plastic and thesurface can be damaged if mistreated. Donot use abrasive cleaners. Use warm waterand mild soap or car-washing solution.

o Do not expose the bumpers to high tem-peratures. For example, if you have yourcar repainted, do not leave the bumpers onthe car if the car is going to be placed in ahigh temperature paint booth.

E040A01A-AAT

CLEANING THE INTERIORTo Clean the Vinyl UpholsteryTo clean the vinyl upholstery, first remove loosedirt and dust with a vacuum cleaner. Then applya solution of mild soap or detergent and waterusing a clean sponge or soft cloth. Allow this tostay on the surface to loosen the dirt, then wipewith a clean damp sponge or cloth. If all the dirtstains are not removed, repeat this procedureuntil the upholstery is clean. Do not use gaso-line, solvent, paint thinner or other strong clean-ers.

E040B01A-AAT

To Clean the Leather Upholstery(If Installed)In the normal course of use, leather upholsteredsurfaces will, like any material, pick-up dust anddirt. This dust and dirt must be cleaned off or itmay work into the surface of the leather, caus-ing damage.

Fine leather needs care, and should be cleanedwhen necessary. Washing leather thoroughlywith soap and water will keep your leatherlustrous, beautiful and ensure you have manyyears of wear.


4-4

Take a piece of cheese cloth and using anymild soap and lukewarm water, work up a goodlather. Thoroughly wash the leather. Wipe cleanwith a slightly damp cloth and dry with softcloth. Do this as often as the leather becomessoiled.

During tanning operations, sufficient oils areincorporated through processing that none needbe applied during the life of the leather. Oilapplied to the finished surface will in no wayhelp the leather and may do more harm thangood. Varnishes and furniture polishes shouldnever be used under any conditions.

E040C01A-AAT

Cleaning the CarpetsUse a foam-type carpet cleaner. Cleaners ofthis type are available in aerosol cans in liquidform or powder. Read the instructions and fol-low them exactly. Using a vacuum cleaner withthe appropriate attachment, remove as muchdirt from the carpets as possible. Apply thefoam following the manufacturer's directions,then rub in overlapping circles. Do not addwater. These cleaners work best when thecarpet is kept as dry as possible.

E050A01A-AAT

ANY QUESTIONS?If you have any questions about the care ofyour car, consult your Hyundai dealer.

E040D01A-AAT

Cleaning the Seat BeltsTo clean the seat belts, use a cloth or spongewith mild soap or detergent and warm water. Donot use strong detergents, dye, bleach or abra-sive materials on the seat belts as this mayweaken the fabric.While cleaning the belts, inspect them for ex-cessive wear, cuts, fraying or other signs ofdamage and replace them if necessary.

E040E01A-AAT

Cleaning the WindowsYou may use any household window cleaner onthe windows. However, when cleaning the in-side of the rear window be careful not to dam-age the rear window defroster wiring.

To Check the Oil LevelG030D01A-GAT

Adding Oil

AS60050A

LF

Before checking the oil, warm up the engine tothe normal operating temperature and be sureyour car is parked on level ground. Turn theengine off.

Wait a minute, then remove the dipstick, wipe itoff, fully reinsert the dipstick and withdraw itagain. Then note the highest level the oil hasreached on the dipstick. It should be betweenthe upper ("FULL") and lower ("LOW") range.

If the oil level is close to or below the "L" mark,add oil until it reaches the "F" mark. To add oil:

1. Remove the oil filler cap by turning it counter-clockwise.

2. Add oil, then check the level again. Do notoverfill.

3. Replace the cap by turning it clockwise.

The distance between the "F" and "L" marks isequal to about 1 liter of oil.

ENGINE OIL CONSUMPTIONFunction of Engine OilEngine oil has the primary function of lubricat-ing and cooling the inside of the engine.

Engine oil consumptionIt is normal that an engine should consumesome engine oil while normal driving. The causeof oil consumption in a normal engine are asfollows;

o Engine oil is used to lubricate pistons, pistonrings and cylinders.A thin film of oil is left on the cylinder wallwhen a piston moves downwards in thecylinder. High negative pressure generatedduring engine operation sucks some of theoil into the combustion chamber.This oil with some oil of the cylinder wall isburned by the high temperature combustiongases during the combustion process.

o The engine oil consumption is strongly ef-fected by the viscosity and quality of oil,engine rpm and driving condition etc. Theengine oil is more consumed under severedriving conditions such as high speeds andfrequent acceleration and deceleration thannormal driving condition.

H010A01A-GAT

EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM(If Installed)Your Hyundai is equipped with an emissioncontrol system to meet all requirements of theEmission prohibition rules of your province.There are three emission control systems whichare as follows.

1) Crankcase emission control system2) Evaporative emission control system3) Exhaust emission control system

In order to assure the proper function of theemission control systems, it is recommendedthat you have your car inspected and main-tained by an authorized Hyundai dealer in ac-cordance with the maintenance schedule in thismanual.

the crankcase through the air intake hose.Inside the crankcase, the fresh air mixes withblow-by gases, which then pass through thePCV valve and into the induction system.

H010C02A-GAT

2. Evaporative Emission ControlSystem (If installed)

The Evaporative Emission Control System isdesigned to prevent fuel vapors from escapinginto the atmosphere.

CanisterWhile the engine is inoperative, fuel vaporsgenerated inside the fuel tank are absorbed andstored in the onboard canister. When the en-gine is running, the fuel vapors absorbed in thecanister are drawn into the induction systemthroughthe purge control solenoid valve.

Purge Control Solenoid ValveThe purge control solenoid valve is controlledby the ECM; when the engine coolant temper-ature is low, and during idling, it closes, so thatevaporated fuel is not taken into the engine.After engine warm-up, during ordinary driving, itopens so as to introduce evaporated fuel to theengine.

The Positive Crankcase Ventilation System isemployed to prevent air pollution caused byblow-by gases being emitted from the crank-case. This system supplies fresh filtered air to

H010D01A-AAT

3. Exhaust Emission Control SystemThe exhaust emission control system is a high-ly effective system which controls exhaust emis-sion while maintaining good vehicle perfor-mance.

H020A01A-GAT

CATALYTIC CONVERTER (If Installed)

The catalytic converter is part of the exhaustemission control system. It's purpose is to re-move certain engine emission products fromthe engine's exhaust. It looks something like amuffler and is located underneath the car in theexhaust system.

o Do not touch the catalytic converter or anyother part of the exhaust system while theengine is running as it is very hot and couldresult in burns.

o Remember that your Hyundai dealer is yourbest source of assistance.

H020B01A-GAT

About the Catalytic ConverterExhaust gases passing through the catalyticconverter cause it to operate at very high tem-peratures. As a result, the introduction of largeamounts of unburned gasoline may cause it tooverheat and create a fire hazard.This can be avoided by observing the following:

o Use unleaded fuel only.o Maintain your engine in good condition. Ex-

tremely high converter temperatures canresult from improper operation of the electri-cal, ignition or fuel injection systems.

o If your engine stalls, pings, knocks, or ishard to start, take your car to your Hyundaidealer as soon as possible and have thedifficulty corrected.

o Avoid driving with a very low fuel level. If yourun out of gasoline, it could cause the engineto misfire and result in excessive loading ofthe catalytic converter.

o Avoid idling the engine for periods longerthan 10 minutes.

o Your Hyundai should not be either pushedor pulled to get it started.This can cause the catalytic converter tooverload.

o Take care not to stop your Hyundai over anycombustible material such as grass, paper,leaves or rags. As these materials couldcome in contact with the catalytic converterand could cause a fire.

These pressures were chosen to provide themost satisfactory combination of ride comfort,tire wear and stability under normal conditions.Tire pressures should be checked at leastmonthly. Proper tire inflation pressures shouldbe maintained for these reasons:


8-2

o Lower-than-recommended tire pressurescause uneven tread wear and poor han-dling.

o Higher-than-recommended tire pressuresincrease the chance of damage from im-pacts and cause uneven tread wear.

CAUTION:Always observe the following:

o Check pressures when the tires are cold.That is, after the car has been parked forat least three hours and hasn't been driv-en more than 1.6 km or one mile sincestarting up.

o Check the pressure of your spare tireeach time you check the pressure ofother tires.

o Never overload your car. Be especiallycareful about overloading if you equipyour car with a luggage rack or car topcarrier.

I040A01A-GAT

SNOW TIRESIf you equip your car with snow tires, theyshould be the same size and have the sameload capacity as the original tires. Snow tiresshould be installed on all four wheels; other-wise, poor handling may result.Snow tires should carry 28 kPa (4 psi) more airpressure than the pressure recommended forthe standard tires on the tire label on the driverside center pillar outer panel, or up to themaximum pressure shown on the tire sidewallwhichever is less.Do not drive faster than the speed limit whenyour car is equipped with snow tires.

I050A01X-GAT

TIRE CHAINSTire chains, if necessary, should be installed onthe front wheels. Be sure that the chains are theproper size and that they are installed in accor-dance with the manufacturer's instructions.

To minimize tire and chain wear, do not con-tinue to use tire chains when they are no longerneeded.

WARNING:When driving on roads covered with snowor ice, drive at less than 30 km/h (20 mph).

I060A01A-GAT

TIRE ROTATION

SSA8050A

Tires should be rotated every 10,000 km (6,000miles). If you notice that tires are wearing un-evenly between rotations, have the car checkedby a Hyundai dealer so the cause may becorrected.After rotating, adjust the tire pressures and besure to check wheel nut tightness.

WARNING:Do not mix bias-ply and radial-ply tires un-der any circumstances.This may cause dangerous handling char-acteristics.
