WARNING:
o If a person becomes locked in the
trunk, pull the emergency trunk re-
lease lever of the inside panel in the
trunk to open the trunk lid.
o Keep cars locked and keys out of the
reach of children. HYUNDAI recom-
mends parents teach children about
the emergency trunk release lever
in their vehicle and how to open the
trunk lid if they are accidentally
locked in the trunk.
!
CAUTION:
To prevent damage to the goods or the
vehicle, care should be taken when car-
rying fragile or bulky objects in the lug-
gage compartment.
!
WARNING:
Avoid eye injury. DO NOT overstretch
the luggage net. ALWAYS keep your
face and body out of its recoil path. DO
NOT use when the luggage net straps
have visible signs of wear or damage.
When loading the objects in the luggage
compartment, use the four rings located
in the luggage compartment to attach the
luggage net as shown illustration. This
will help prevent the objects from sliding.

DRIVING YOUR HYUNDAI

C160D01A-AATCheck Battery and CablesWinter puts additional burdens on the
battery system. Visually inspect the bat-
tery and cables as described in Section
6. The level of charge in your battery can
be checked by your Hyundai dealer or a
service station.C160C01A-AATUse High Quality Ethylene Glycol
CoolantYour Hyundai is delivered with high qual-
ity ethylene glycol coolant in the cooling
system. It is the only type of coolant that
should be used because it helps prevent
corrosion in the cooling system, lubri-
cates the water pump and prevents freez-
ing. Be sure to replace or replenish your
coolant in accordance with the mainte-
nance schedule in Section 5. Before win-
ter, have your coolant tested to assure
that its freezing point is sufficient for the
temperatures anticipated during the win-
ter.
C160B01A-AATSnowy or Icy ConditionsTo drive your vehicle in deep snow, it may
be necessary to use snow tires or to
install tire chains on your tires. If snow
tires are needed, it is necessary to select
tires equivalent in size and type to the
original equipment tires. Failure to do so
may adversely affect the safety and han-
dling of your car. Furthermore, speeding,
rapid acceleration, sudden brake appli-
cations, and sharp turns are potentially
very hazardous practices.
During deceleration, use engine braking
to the fullest extent. Sudden brake appli-
cations on snowy or icy roads may cause
skids to occur. You need to keep suffi-
cient distance between the vehicle in
operation in front and your vehicle. Also,
apply the brake gently. It should be noted
that installing tire chains on the tire will
provide a greater driving force, but will
not prevent side skids.NOTE:Tire chains are not legal in all states.
Check state laws before fitting tire
chains.
C160E01A-AATChange to "Winter Weight" Oil if
NecessaryIn some climates it is recommended that
a lower viscosity "winter weight" oil be
used during cold weather. See Section 9
for recommendations. If you aren't sure
what weight oil you should use, consult
your Hyundai dealer.C160F02A-AATCheck Spark Plugs and Ignition
SystemInspect your spark plugs and replace
them if necessary. Also check all ignition
wiring and components to be sure they
are not cracked, worn or damaged in any
way.

G120E02A-AATAdding Brake Fluid
WARNING:
Handle brake fluid carefully. It can dam-
age your vision if it gets into your eyes.
Use only DOT 3 or DOT 4 specification
fluid from a sealed container. Do not
allow the fluid can or reservoir to re-
main open any longer than required.
This will avoid entry of dirt and moisture
which can damage the brake system
and cause improper operation.
To add brake fluid, first wipe away any
dirt, then unscrew the fluid reservoir cap.
Slowly pour the recommended fluid into
the reservoir. Do not overfill. Carefully
replace the cap on the reservoir and
tighten.
AIR CONDITIONER CAREG140A01A-AATKeeping the Condenser CleanThe air conditioner condenser (and en-
gine radiator) should be checked periodi-
cally for accumulation of dirt, dead in-
sects, leaves, etc. These can interfere
with maximum cooling efficiency. When
removing such accumulations, brush or
hose them away carefully to avoid bend-
ing the cooling fans.
Checking the amount of air condi-
tioner refrigerant and compressor
lubricantWhen the amount of refrigerant is low, the
performance of the air conditioning is
reduced. Overfilling also has a negative
impact on the air conditioning system.
Therefore, if abnormal operation is found,
have the system inspected by an autho-
rized HYUNDAI dealer.
NOTE:
It is important when servicing the air
conditioning system that the correct
type and amount of oil and refrigerant is
used. Otherwise, damage to the com-
pressor and abnormal system opera-
tion may occur.

Headlight
1. Allow the bulb to cool. Wear eye pro-
tection.
2. Open the engine hood and disconnect
the negative (-) post of the battery.
3. Always grasp the bulb by its plastic
base, avoid touching the glass.
4. Disconnect the power cord from the
back of the headlight.
REPLACEMENT OF LIGHT
BULBS!
G260A01MC-AATBefore attempting to replace a light bulb,
be sure the switch is turned to the "OFF"
position.
The next paragraph shows how to reach
the light bulbs so they may be changed.
Be sure to replace the burned-out bulb
with one of the same number and watt-
age rating.
See page 6-29 for the wattage descrip-
tions.
CAUTION:
o Keep the lamps out of contact with
petroleum products, such as oil,
gasoline, etc.
o If you don't have necessary tools,
the correct bulbs and the expertise,
consult your authorized Hyundai
dealer.
G270A02MC-GATHeadlight, Front Turn Signal Light
and Front Fog Light
CAUTION:
o The headlight aiming should be
checked by an authorized Hyundai
dealer after replacing the headlight
bulbs.
o After heavy, driving rain or washing,
headlight and taillight lenses could
appear frosty. This condition is
caused by the temperature differ-
ence between the lamp inside and
outside. This is similar to the con-
densation on your windows inside
your vehicle during the rain and
doesn’t indicate a problem with your
vehicle. If the water leaks into the
lamp bulb circuitry, have the vehicle
checked by an authorized Hyundai
dealer.

NOTE:
It is permissible to add 3psi (21kPa) to the standard tire
pressure specification if colder temperatures are expected
soon. Tires typically loose 1psi (7kPa) for every 12°F (-11°C)
temperature drop. If extreme temperature variations are ex-
pected, re-check your tire pressure as necessary to keep them
properly inflated.
