The clutch should be pressed all the way to the floor before shifting, then released slowly. Theclutch pedal should be always used after fullyreturning to the original position. Do not restyour foot on the clutch pedal while driving. Thiscan cause unnecessary wear. Do not partiallyengage the clutch to hold the car on an incline.This causes unnecessary wear. Use the park-ing brake to hold the car on an incline. Do notoperate the clutch pedal rapidly and repeatedly. o Slow down when you encounter cross winds.
This gives you much better control of yourcar.
o Be sure the car is completely stopped be- fore you attempt to shift into reverse. Thetransaxle can be damaged if you do not. To
shift into reverse, depress the clutch (manualtransaxle), move the shift lever to neutral,
wait three seconds, then shift to the reverseposition.
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 ve-hicle speed can cause the drive wheels tolose traction and the vehicle to go out ofcontrol.

o Never take the car out of gear and coast
down a hill. This is extremely hazardous. Always leave the car in gear.
o Don't "ride" the brakes. This can cause them to overheat and malfunction. Instead,when you are driving down a long hill, slowdown and shift to a lower gear. When you dothis, engine braking will help slow the car.
o Slow down before shifting to a lower gear. This will help avoid over-revving the engine,which can cause damage.

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.

o L (Low gear): Use for driving up a very steep grade or for engine braking when descending steep hills.When downshifting to "L", the transaxle willtemporarily remain in second gear until thevehicle has slowed enough for low gear toengage. Do not exceed 50 km/h (30 mph) in lowgear. "L" shifts to 1st gear only. However, shift up to 2nd is performed when the car exceeds acertain speed and, as speed increases, thetransaxle will shift up to 3rd gear to preventover-revving the engine. C090H01E-GAT

Use for normal driving. The transaxle will auto-

In the "N" position, the transaxle is in neutral
position, which means that no gears are en-gaged. The engine can be started with the shiftlever in "N" position, although this is not recom-mended except if the engine stalls while the caris moving.

Use for driving on a slippery road, hill climbing
or engine braking downhill. "2" automaticallyshifts between first and second gears.
This means that no shift-up to 3rd gear is
performed. However, the shift-up to third gear isdone when the car speed exceeds a certainvalue to prevent the engine from over-revving. Manually move the selector to "D" returning to normal driving condition.
