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 the windows immediately. o Do not inhale exhaust fumes. Exhaust fumes contain carbon monoxide, a colorless, odorless gas that can cause unconsciousness and death by asphyxiation. 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 hear a 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 your garage 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 area with 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 windshie ld
are kept clear of snow, ice, leaves or other obstructions.

NOTE: The proper temperature for using the immo- bilizer key is from -40°C to 80°C. If you heatthe immobilizer key over 80°C to open thefrozen lock, it may cause damage to thetransponder in its head. C160H01A-AAT
Use Approved Anti-Freeze in Window Washer System
To keep the water in the window washer sys- tem from freezing, add an approved anti-freezesolution in accordance with instructions on thecontainer. Window washer anti-freeze is avail-able from Hyundai dealers and most auto partsoutlets. Do not use engine coolant or othertypes of anti-freeze as these may damage thefinish. C160I01X-GAT
Don't Let Your Parking Brake Freeze Under some conditions your parking brake can freeze in the engaged position. This is mostlikely to happen when there is an accumulationof snow or ice around or near the rear brakes orif the brakes are wet. If there is a risk theparking brake may freeze, apply it only tempo-
C160F01A-AAT
Check Spark Plugs and Ignition System
Inspect your spark plugs as described in Sec- tion 6 and replace them if necessary. Alsocheck all ignition wiring and components to besure they are not cracked, worn or damaged inany way.
C160D01A-AAT
Check Battery and Cables
Winter puts additional burdens on the batterysystem. Visually inspect the battery and cablesas described in Section 6. The level of chargein your battery can be checked by your Hyundaidealer or a service station. C160E01A-AAT
Change to "Winter Weight" Oil if Necessary
In some climates it is recommended that a lower viscosity "winter weight" oil be used dur-ing cold weather. See Section 9 for recommen-dations. If you aren't sure what weight oil youshould use, consult your Hyundai dealer. C160G01A-GAT
To Keep Locks from Freezing To keep the locks from freezing, squirt an approved de-icer fluid or glycerine into the keyopening. If a lock is covered with ice, squirt itwith an approved de-icing fluid to remove the
Failure to do so may adversely affect the safety
and 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 on
the 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 tire chains.
C160C01A-AAT
Use High Quality Ethylene Glycol Coolant
Your Hyundai is delivered with high quality
ethylene glycol coolant in the cooling system. It is 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 TOWING
If you are considering towing with your car, you
should first check with your Province Depart- ment of Motor Vehicles to determine their legal
requirements. Since laws vary from province to province the
requirements for towing trailers, cars, or other types of vehicles or apparatus may differ. Askyour Hyundai dealer for further details beforetowing.
CAUTION: Do not do any towing with your car during
its first 2,000 km (1,200 miles) in order to allow the engine to properly break in. Fail-ure to heed this caution may result in seri-ous engine or transaxle damage.
C190B01S-AAT
Trailer Hitches Select 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 car
and 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 MOTORING Pre-Trip Inspections 1. Tires: Adjust the tire inflation pressures to specifica-
tion driving. Low tire inflation pressures will result in overheating and possible failure of thetires.
Avoid using worn or damaged tires which may
result in reduced traction or tire failure.
NOTE: Never exceed the maximum tire inflation
pressure shown on the tires.
2. Fuel, engine coolant and engine oil:High speed travel consumes 1.5 times more
fuel than urban motoring. Do not forget to check both engine coolant and engine oil. 3. Drive belt:
A loose or damaged drive belt may result in
overheating of the engine.
C180A01A-AAT
USE OF LIGHTS Check your lights regularly for correct operation
and always keep them clean. When driving during 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.
rarily while you put the gear selector lever in"P" (automatic transaxle) or in first or reversegear (manual transaxle) and block the rearwheels so the car cannot roll. Then release theparking brake.
C160J01A-AAT
Don't Let Ice and Snow Accumulate Underneath
Under some conditions, snow and ice can build
up under the fenders and interfere with the steering. When driving in severe winter condi-tions where this may happen, you should peri-odically check underneath the car to be surethe movement of the front wheels and thesteering components are not obstructed.
C160K01A-AAT
Carry Emergency Equipment
Depending on the severity of the weather where
you drive your car, you should carry appropri-ate emergency equipment. Some of the itemsyou may want to carry include tire chains, towstraps or chains, flashlight, emergency flares,sand, a shovel, jumper cables, a windowscraper, gloves, ground cloth, coveralls, a blan-ket, etc.

F010A01A-GAT
MAINTENANCE INTERVALS Service requirements
To assure that you receive the greatest number
of kilometers of satisfying operation from your Hyundai, certain maintenance procedures must
be performed. Although careful design and en-
gineering have reduced these to a minimum,those that are required are of the utmost impor-tance.
It is your responsibility to have these mainte-
nance procedures performed to comply with theterms of the warranties covering your newHyundai. The Service Passport supplied withyour new vehicle provides further information
about these warranties. F010B01A-AAT
Maintenance Requirements The maintenance required for your Hyundai
can be divided into three main areas:
o Specified scheduled procedures
o General everyday checks
o Do-it-yourself maintenance F010C01A-GAT
Specified Scheduled Procedures
These are the procedures such as inspections,
adjustments and replacements that are listed in the maintenance charts starting on page 5-2.These procedures must be performed at theintervals shown in the maintenance schedule to
assure that your warranty remains in effect.Although it is strongly recommended that they
be performed by the factory-trained or distribu-tor-trained technicians at your Hyundai dealer,
these procedures may be performed at any
qualified service facility.
It is suggested that genuine Hyundai service
parts be used for any required repairs or re-placements. Other parts of equivalent quality
such as engine oil, engine coolant, manual orauto transaxle oil, brake fluid and so on which
are not supplied by Hyundai Motor Company or
its distributor may be used without affectingyour warranty coverage but you should always
be sure these are equivalent to the quality of theoriginal Hyundai parts. Your Service Passport
provides further information about your warran-ty coverage. F010E01A-AAT
Do-It-Yourself Maintenance
If you are mechanically inclined, own a few
tools that are required and want to take the timeto do so, you can inspect and service a number
of items. For more information about doing ityourself, see Section 6.
