Driving your vehicle
The Electronic Stability Control (ESC)
system is an electronic system designed
to help the driver maintain vehicle control
under adverse conditions. It is not a
substitute for safe driving practices.
Factors including speed, road conditions
and driver steering input can all affect
whether ESC will be effective in
preventing a loss of control. It is still your
responsibility to drive and corner at
reasonable speeds and to leave a
sufficient margin of safety.
When you apply your brakes under con-
ditions which may lock the wheels, you
may hear a “tik-tik’’ sound from the
brakes, or feel a corresponding sensation
in the brake pedal. This is normal and it
means your ESC is active.
✽ ✽NOTICE
A click sound may be heard in the
engine compartment when the vehicle
begins to move after the engine is start-
ed. These conditions are normal and
indicate that the Electronic Stability
Control System is functioning properly.

The cruise control system allows you to
program the vehicle to maintain a con-
stant speed without pressing the acceler-
ator pedal.
This system is designed to function
above approximately 25 mph (40 km/h).
✽ ✽
NOTICE
• During normal cruise control opera-
tion, when the SET switch is activated
or reactivated after applying the
brakes, the cruise control will ener-
gize after approximately 3 seconds.
This delay is normal.
• To activate cruise control, depress the brake pedal at least once after turning
the ignition switch to the ON position
or starting the engine. This is to check
if the brake switch which is important
part to cancel cruise control is in nor-
mal condition.
CRUISE CONTROL SYSTEM (IF EQUIPPED)
WARNING
If the cruise control is left on,
(CRUISE indicator light in the
instrument cluster illuminated)
the cruise control can be activat-
ed unintentionally. Keep the
cruise control system off
(CRUISE indicator light OFF)
when the cruise control is not in
use, to avoid inadvertently set-
ting a speed.
Use the cruise control system only when traveling on open
highways in good weather.
Do not use the cruise control when it may not be safe to keep
the car at a constant speed, for
instance, driving in heavy or
varying traffic, or on slippery
(rainy, icy or snow-covered) or
winding roads or over 6% up-hill
or down-hill roads.
Pay particular attention to the driving conditions whenever
using the cruise control system.
Be careful when driving downhill using the cruise control system,
which may increase the vehicle
speed.

The smart cruise control system allows
you to program the vehicle to maintain a
set speed so long as it is not limited by
traffic. When traffic is encountered the
vehicle will be slowed to maintain a set
distance behind traffic without depress-
ing the accelerator or brake pedal.
✽ ✽
NOTICE
• During normal smart cruise control
operation, when the SET switch is
activated or reactivated after applying
the brakes, the smart cruise control
will energize after approximately 3
seconds. This delay is normal.
• To activate smart cruise control, depress the brake pedal at least once
after turning the ignition switch to the
ON position or starting the engine. This
is to check if the brake switch which is
important part to cancel smart cruise
control is in normal condition.
SMART CRUISE CONTROL (SCC) SYSTEM (IF EQUIPPED)
WARNING
If the smart cruise control is left
on, (CRUISE indicator light in the
instrument cluster illuminated)
the smart cruise control can be
activated unintentionally. Keep
the smart cruise control system
off (CRUISE indicator light OFF)
when the smart cruise control is
not in use, to avoid inadvertently
setting a speed.
Use the smart cruise control sys- tem only when traveling on open
highways in good weather.
Do not use the smart cruise con- trol when it may not be safe to
keep the car at a constant speed,
for instance, driving in heavy or
varying traffic, or on slippery
(rainy, icy or snow-covered) or
winding roads or over 6% up-hill
or down-hill roads.

Be careful when driving downhill using the smart cruise control
system, which may increase the
vehicle speed.
The smart cruise control system is not a substitute for safe driving
practices but a convenience
function only. It is the responsi-
bility of the driver to always
check the speed and distance to

To turn cruise control off, do one
of the following:
Push the cruise ON/OFF button (the
CRUISE indicator light in the instru-
ment cluster will go off).
Turn the engine off.
Both of these actions cancel smart cruise control operation. If you want to resumesmart cruise control operation, repeatthe steps provided in “To set cruise con-trol speed” on the previous page.
E150800ABH
To set vehicle to vehicle distance:
This function allows you to program the
vehicle to maintain a following distance
to the vehicle ahead without depressing
the accelerator pedal or brake pedal. The vehicle to vehicle distance will auto-
matically activate when the smart cruise
control system is on.
Select the appropriate distance accord-
ing to road conditions and vehicle speed.
Each time the button is pressed, the vehi-
cle to vehicle distance changes as fol-
lows;
Distance 3 →
Distance 2 →Distance 1
For example, if you drive at 50 mph (80
km/h), the distance is maintained as fol-
lows;
Distance 3 - approximately 180 feet
Distance 2 - approximately 130 feet
Distance 1 - approximately 85 feet
✽ ✽ NOTICE
The 'Distance 3' is always set when the
system is used for the first time after
starting the engine.

Driving your vehicle
Remember, your vehicle does notrequire extended warm-up. After the
engine has started, allow the engine to
run for 10 to 20 seconds prior to plac-
ing the vehicle in gear. In very cold
weather, however, give your engine a
slightly longer warm-up period.
Don't "lug" or "over-rev" the engine. Lugging is driving too slowly in too high
a gear resulting in the engine bucking.
If this happens, shift to a lower gear.
Over-revving is racing the engine
beyond its safe limit. This can be avoid-
ed by shifting at the recommended
speeds. Use your air conditioning sparingly.
The air conditioning system is operat-
ed by engine power so your fuel econ-
omy is reduced when you use it.
Open windows at high speeds can reduce fuel economy.
Fuel economy is less in crosswinds and headwinds. To help offset some of
this loss, slow down when driving in
these conditions.
Keeping a vehicle in good operating con-
dition is important both for economy and
safety. Therefore, have an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer perform scheduled
inspections and maintenance.
WARNING - Engine off dur- ing motion
Never turn the engine off to coast
down hills or anytime the vehicle is
in motion. The power steering and
power brakes will not function
properly without the engine run-
ning. Instead, keep the engine on
and downshift to an appropriate
gear for engine braking effect. In
addition, turning off the ignition
while driving could engage the
steering wheel lock resulting in
loss of vehicle steering which
could cause serious injury or
death.

Recommended SAE viscosity
number
Engine oil viscosity (thickness) has an
effect on fuel economy and cold weather
operating (engine start and engine oil
flowability). Lower viscosity engine oils
can provide better fuel economy and cold
weather performance, however, higher
viscosity engine oils are required for sat-
isfactory lubrication in hot weather. Using
oils of any viscosity other than those rec-
ommended could result in engine dam-
age.
CAUTION
Always be sure to clean the areaaround any filler plug, drain plug, ordipstick before checking or drain-ing any lubricant. This is especiallyimportant in dusty or sandy areasand when the vehicle is used onunpaved roads. Cleaning the plugand dipstick areas will prevent dirt and grit from entering the engineand other mechanisms that couldbe damaged.
