Condition
15 (20) 25 (40) 35 (55)45 (75)The highly efficient Hyundai automatic transaxle
has four forward speeds and one reverse speed. It has a conventional shift pattern as shown inthe illustration. At night, with the first position ofthe multi-function switch, the appropriate sym-bol on the shift pattern indicator will be illuminat-ed according to the range selected.
CAUTION: Never shift into "R" or "P" position while
the vehicle is moving.
NOTE: Depress the brake pedal and push the
button when shifting.
Push the button when shifting. The selector lever can be shifted free-
ly.
For optimum fuel economy, accelerate gradual-
ly. The transaxle will automatically shift to the second, third and overdrive gears.
CAUTION: The selector must NEVER be shifted to the
"P" position whilst the vehicle is in motion, otherwise serious transaxle damage will re-sult.
NOTE:
o The ignition key can be removed with the selector in only this position. (Not allmodels)
o The brake pedal fully depressed in order to move the shift lever from the "P"(Park) position to any of the other posi-tions. (Not all models)
ZC110B1-E
SELECTOR POSITIONS o P (Park):
With the selector in this position, no drive is
transmitted from the engine and the transaxle output (and therefore the front wheels) arelocked. The engine may be started with theselector in this position. ZC110C1-A
o R (Reverse):
Use for backing up the vehicle. Bring the car to
a complete stop before shifting the selectorlever to "R" position.
C090D02A-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 recommendedexcept if the engine stalls while the car ismoving. CAUTION:
Do not coast with the selector at the "N"
position

DRIVING YOUR HYUNDAI 2- 7
o Ensure that the overdrive switch is at the
"ON" position for maximum economy.
o If rapid acceleration is required, fully de- press the accelerator pedal. In this condi- tion, the kickdown mechanism will be oper-ated and the transaxle will automaticallydownshift according to the vehicle speed.
o Do not depress the accelerator pedal with the brakes applied and the selector at the"R" "D" "2" or "L" position.
o Turn the overdrive switch on for good fuel economy and smooth driving. But if enginebraking is needed in the "D" range or ifrepeated upshifting and downshifting be-tween the 3rd and 4th gear is needed whenclimbing a gentle slope, it is recommendedthat the overdrive switch be turned off. Turnthe overdrive switch back on immediatelyafterward.

EFFECTIVE BRAKING Braking system performance and friction mate-
rial life are greatly affected by the driving styleadopted. The following suggestions are madeto assist in achieving the best results from thebraking system.
o Anticipate the road and conditions ahead in order that heavy braking may be avoided.
o When descending long gradients, use the engine to assist in retarding the vehicle to minimize the possibility of brake fade occur-ring.
ZC120D1-E
General Operating Instructions
o The button in the selector handle must be depressed before the selector can be moved.
o The engine may only be started when the selector is at position "P" or "N".
o Ensure that the footbrake is firmly applied when shifting from "P" or "N" to "D", "2" or "L" and vice versa.
o Always engage the parking brake when the vehicle is unattended, never use the "P"position in place of the parking brake.
o Under normal circumstances, the selector should be placed in the "D" position and thetransaxle allowed to select the most idealratio for the circumstances. In this positionmaximum fuel economy will be achieved.
o When descending steep gradients where engine braking is required, the selectorshould be placed at the "2" or "L" positiondepending upon the vehicle speed.
o When ascending steep gradients and using large throttle openings, the transaxle mayrepeatedly change between two adjacentratios. This is a normal characteristic andmay be prevented by selecting "2" or "L"depending upon the vehicle speed.
o Never move the selector to or from the "P" or "N" position with the accelerator de-pressed. o When trailer towing, ensure that the trailer
brakes function correctly and use enginebrak-ing to assist the vehicle braking system.
o Use only genuine Hyundai replacement brake pads and shoes to ensure consistentfriction characteristics and wear rates.
o After driving through deep water (e.g. fording), the brakes may become wet andperformance reduced. Always check brakeefficiency after emerging from the water anddry the brakes by lightly depressing thebrake pedal several times whilst driving slow-ly.
o Apply the parking brake only when the vehi- cle is at rest.
o Since the power assistance provided by the brake servo is derived from the engine,coast-ing with the engine turned off or tow-ing of the vehicle with the engine turned offwill result in greatly increased pedal pres-sures being re-quired to stop the vehicle.
o Do not hold the vehicle on the upgrade with the accelerator pedal. This can cause thetransmission to overheat. Always use thebrake pedal or parking brake.

ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM
(Not all models) The Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) is designed
to prevent wheel lock-up during sudden braking or on hazardous road surfaces. The ABS con-trol module monitors the wheel speed and con-trols the pressure applied to each brake. Thus,

DRIVING YOUR HYUNDAI
2- 8 in emergency situations or on slick roads, ABS will increase vehicle control during braking. NOTE: During ABS operation, a slight pulsation may 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. WARNING: Your ABS will not prevent accidents due to improper 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.
These roads should be driven at reduced speeds. The safety features of an ABSequipped vehicle should not be tested by high speed driving or cornering. This couldendanger the safety of yourself or others.
unnecessary tire wear. Check the tire pres-sures at least once a month.
o Be sure that the wheels are aligned cor- rectly. Improper alignment can result fromhitting curbs or driving too fast over irregularsurfaces. 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 better fuel 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 car should be kept clean and free ofcorrosive 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 weight in your car. Weight is an enemy of good fueleconomy.
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 car does not require ex- tended 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.
SC150A1-F
DRIVING FOR ECONOMY You can save fuel and get more miles from yourcar if you follow these suggestions:
o Drive smoothly. Accelerate at a moderate rate. 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 possible. Al- ways maintain a safe distance from othervehicles so you can avoid unnecessary brak-ing. This also reduces brake wear.
o Drive at a moderate speed. The faster you drive, 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. This can 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 inflated to the recommended pressure. Incorrect infla-tion, either too much or too little, results in

EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEMS 7-1
H010A01A-GAT EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM (Not all models) Your Hyundai is equipped with an emission
control system to meet all requirements of the Emission prohibition rules of your province.
There are three emission control systems which
are as follows.
1) Crankcase emission control system
2) Evaporative emission control system
3) Exhaust emission control system In order to assure the proper function of the
emission control systems, it is recommended that you have your car inspected and main-tained by an authorized Hyundai dealer in ac-
cordance with the maintenance schedule in thismanual. ZH000A1-A
7. EMISSION
CONTROL SYSTEMS
H010B01A-AAT
1. Crankcase Emission Control Sys-
tem
The Positive Crankcase Ventilation System is
employed to prevent air pollution caused by blow-by gases being emitted from the crank- case. This system supplies fresh filtered air to
the crankcase through the air intake hose.Inside the crankcase, the fresh air mixes with
blow-by gases, which then pass through thePCV valve and into the induction system.
H010D01A-AAT
3. Exhaust Emission Control SystemThe Exhaust Emission Control System is a
highly effective system which controls exhaust
emission while maintaining good vehicle perfor-mance.
H010C02A-GAT
2. Evaporative Emission
Control System (Not all models)
The Evaporative Emission Control System is
designed to prevent fuel vapors from escapinginto the atmosphere.
Canister While the engine is inoperative, fuel vapours
generated inside the fuel tank are absorbed and stored in the onboard canister. When the en-gine is running, the fuel vapors absorbed in thecanister are drawn into the induction systemthrough the purge control solenoid valve.
Purge Control Solenoid Valve The purge control solenoid valve is controlled
by the ECM; when the engine coolant temper- ature is low, and during idling, it closes, so that
evaporated fuel is not taken into the engine.
After engine warm-up, during ordinary driving, itopens so as to introduce evaporated fuel to theengine.
H020A01ACatalytic Converter
H020A01A-GAT CATALYTIC CONVERTER (Not all models) The catalytic converter is part of the exhaust
emission control system. Its purpose is to re- move certain engine emission products from
the engine’s exhaust. It looks something like amuffler and is located underneath the car in theexhaust system.
