2- 4 When shifting into reverse gear, pull the mis-shift prevention tab and shift into reverse gear posi-tion. (B Type: 6 speed type) NOTE:
o To shift into reverse, rest the lever in
neutral for at least 3 seconds after yourcar is completely stopped. Then move thelever 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 and it's hard to shift into 1 st
or R(Reverse), put the
shift lever in N(Neutral) position and re-lease the clutch. Press the clutch pedalback down, and then shift into 1 st
or
R(Reverse) gear position.
o Do not use the shift lever as a handrest during driving, as this can result in prema-ture wear of the transaxle shift forks.
CAUTION:When downshifting from fifth gear to fourthgear, caution should be taken not to inadvert-ently press the gear shift lever sideways insuch a manner that second gear is engaged.Such a drastic downshift may cause the en-gine speed to increase to the point that thetachometer will enter the red zone. Suchover-revving of the engine may possibly causeengine damage. C070B01A-AAT Using the ClutchThe clutch should be pressed all the way to the
floor before shifting, then released slowly. Theclutch pedal should always be used after fullyreturning to the original position. Do not rest yourfoot on the clutch pedal while driving. This cancause unnecessary wear. Do not partially en-gage the clutch to hold the car on an incline. Thiscauses unnecessary wear. Use the parking braketo hold the car on an incline. Do not operate theclutch pedal rapidly and repeatedly.

2- 6 C090B01A-AAT The function of each position is as follows: o P (Park): Use to hold the vehicle in place when parked orwhile starting the engine. Whenever parking thecar, apply the parking brake and shift the selectorlever to the "P" (Park) position. CAUTION: Never place the selector lever in the "P"(Park) position unless the vehicle is fullystopped. Failure to observe this caution willcause severe damage to the transaxle. C090C01A-AAT o R(Reverse): Use for backing up the vehicle. Bring the car to a complete stop before shifting the selector lever to"R" position. C090D02O-AAT o N (Neutral): In the "N" position, the transaxle is in neutral, which means that no gears are engaged. Theengine can be started with the shift lever in "N"position, although this is not recommended ex-cept if the engine stalls while the car is moving.
HGK174
C090A04Y-GAT AUTOMATIC TRANSAXLE The highly efficient Hyundai automatic transaxle has four forward speeds and one reverse speed.The individual speeds are selected automatical-ly, depending on the position of the speed selec-tor lever. The selector lever has 2 gates; the maingate and the manual gate. NOTE: For information on manual gate operation,refer to "Sports Mode". In the main gate, the selector lever has 4 posi- tions, and is equipped with a button to avoidinadvertent wrong selection. NOTE:
Depress the brake pedal and push the button when shifting.Push the button when shifting.The selector lever can be shifted freely.
The first few shifts on a new vehicle, or if the battery has been disconnected, may be some-what abrupt. This is a normal condition, andthe shifting sequence will adjust after shiftsare cycled a few times by the T.C.M (Trans-mission Control Module). CAUTION: Never shift into "R" or "P" position while thevehicle is moving.
The indicator lights in the instrument cluster indicate the selector lever position when theignition is switched "ON". During "D" or sportsmode operation, the gear currently in use dis-plays in the numeral indicator.

2- 8 C130A01A-AAT GOOD BRAKING PRACTICES WARNING: Nothing should be carried on top of the shelfpanel behind the rear seat. If there were anaccident or a sudden stop, such objects couldmove forward and cause damage to the ve-hicle or injure the occupants.
o After being parked, check to be sure the
parking brake is not engaged and that the parking brake indicator light is out beforedriving away.
o Driving through water may get the brakes wet. They can also get wet when the car iswashed. Wet brakes can be dangerous! Yourcar will not stop as quickly if the brakes arewet. Wet brakes cause the car to pull to one
side. To dry the brakes, apply the brakeslightly until the braking action returns to nor-mal, taking care to keep the car under controlat all times. If the braking action does notreturn to normal, stop as soon as it is safe todo so and call your Hyundai dealer for assis-tance.
o Don't coast down hills with the car out of gear. This is extremely hazardous. Keep the car ingear at all times, use the brakes to slow down,then shift to a lower gear so that enginebraking will help you maintain a safe speed.
o Don't "ride" the brake pedal. Resting your foot on the brake pedal while driving can be dan-gerous because it can result in the brakes
overheating and losing their effectiveness. It
C090I01L-GAT CAUTION:
o Shift into "R" and "P" position only when
the vehicle has completely stopped.
o Do not accelerate the engine in reverse or any of the forward positions with the brakes applied.
o Always apply the footbrake when shifting from "P" or "N", to "R", "D"position.
o Do not use the "P" (Park) position in place of the parking brake. Always set the park-ing brake, shift the transaxle into "P" (Park)position and turn off the ignition whenyou leave the vehicle, even momentarily.Never leave the vehicle unattended whilethe engine is running.
o Check the automatic transaxle fluid level regularly, and add fluid as necessary.
C090N02O-AAT Good Driving Practices
o 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 before you attempt to shift into "R".
o Never take the car out of gear and coast down a hill. This may be extremely hazardous.Always leave the car in gear when moving.
o Do not "ride" the brakes. This can cause them to overheat and malfunction. Instead, whenyou are driving down a long hill, slow down and shift to a lower gear. When you do this,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 depend on placing the transaxle in "P" to keep the carfrom moving.
o Exercise extreme caution when driving on a slippery surface. Be especially careful whenbraking, accelerating or shifting gears. On aslippery surface, an abrupt change in vehiclespeed can cause the drive wheels to losetraction and the vehicle to go out of control.
WARNING:
o Avoid high cornering speeds.
o Do not make quick steering wheel move- ments, such as sharp lane changes orfast, sharp turns.
o Always wear your seat belts. In a collision crash, un unbelted person issignificantly more likely to die than a per-son wearing a seatbelt.
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 or more wheels drop off the roadway and the driveroversteers to reenter the roadway.
o In the event your vehicle leaves the road- way, do not steer sharply. Instead, slowdown before pulling back into the travellanes.
o Never exceed posted speed limits.
