Warning Light Operation The parking brake/brake fluid level warning light should come on when the parking brake is ap-plied and the ignition switch is turned to "ON" or"START". After the engine is started, the lightshould go out when the parking brake is re-leased.If the parking brake is not applied, the warninglight should come on when the ignition switch isturned to "ON" or "START", then go out when theengine starts. If the light comes on at any othertime, you should slow the vehicle and bring it toa complete stop in a safe location off the road-way.The brake warning light indicates that the brakefluid level in the brake master cylinder is low andhydraulic brake fluid conforming to DOT 3 orDOT 4 specifications should be added. Afteradding fluid, if no other trouble is found, the carshould be immediately and carefully drivento a Hyundai dealer for inspection. If furthertrouble is experienced, the vehicle should not bedriven at all but taken to a dealer by a profes-sional towing service or some other safe method.Your Hyundai is equipped with dual-diagonalbraking systems. This means you still have brak-ing on two wheels even if one of the dual systemsshould fail. With only one of the dual systemsworking, more than normal pedal travel andgreater pedal pressure are required to stop thecar. Also, the car will not stop in as short a B260J01S-GAT

4. To maintain engine braking efficiency andelectrical charging performance, do not use fifth gear (manual transaxle) or overdrive(automatic transaxle).
5. Always secure items in the trailer to prevent load shift while driving.
6. Check the condition and air pressure of all tires on the trailer and your car. Low tirepressure can seriously affect the handling.Also check the spare tire.
7. The vehicle/trailer combination is more af- fected by crosswind and buffeting. When being passed by a large vehicle, keep a constant speed and steer straight ahead.If there is too much wind buffeting slowdown to get out of the other vehicle's airturbulence.
8. When parking your car and trailer, especial- ly on a hill, be sure to follow all the normalprecautions. Turn your front wheel into thecurb, set the parking brake firmly, and putthe transaxle in 1st or Reverse (manual) orPark (automatic). In addition, place wheelchocks at each of the trailer's tires.
9. If the trailer has electric brakes, start your vehicle and trailer moving, and then applythe trailer brake controller by hand to besure the brakes are working. This lets youcheck your electrical connection at the sametime.
10. During your trip, check occasionally to be sure that the load is secure, and that thelights and any trailer brakes are still working.

3. Attach the clamps of the jumper cable in the exact order shown in the illustration. That is, first, attach one clamp of the jumper cable tothe positive (+) post or cable of the dis-charged battery. Then attach the other endof the same cable to the positive (+) post orcable of the booster battery. Next, using theother cable, attach one clamp to the nega-tive (-) post or cable of the booster battery.Then attach the other end of that cable to asolid metal part of the engine away from thebattery. Do not connect the cable to anymoving part.
4. Start the engine in the car with the booster battery and let it run for a few minutes. Thiswill help to assure that the booster battery isfully charged. During the jumping operation,run the engine in this vehicle at about 2,000rpm.
5. Start your engine using the normal starting procedure. After the engine starts, leave thejumper cables connected and let the enginerun at fast idle or about 2,000 rpm for sev-eral minutes.
6. Carefully remove the jumper cables in the reverse order of attachment.
If you do not know why your battery becamedischarged (because the lights were left on,etc.), have the charging system checked byyour Hyundai dealer.

The use of leaded fuel in this vehicle will result
in irreversible pollution of the catalyst element.Such pollution will prevent correct operation ofthe catalyst and give rise to increased operat-ing temperatures leading to the catalyst ele-ment melting and restricting the exhaust flowalong with an increase in exhaust emissionlevels.
CAUTION: The vehicle warranty will not extend to dam-

WITH UNLEADED FUEL.
SERIOUS DAMAGE WILL RESULT FROM
THE USE OF LEADED FUEL. B020A01X-EAT RUNNING INThe longevity and performance of the vehicle
are greatly affected by the care exercised dur- ing the first 1000 miles of motoring. Because ofmodern manufacturing techniques, rigid guide-lines regarding maximum road speeds havebecome unnecessary. However, certain pre-cautions should be observed in order to obtainthe best possible performance and useful lifefrom the vehicle.
1) Do not race the engine without a load (i.e revving the engine in neutral).
2) During the first 500 miles the maximum engine speed should be restricted to 3000 rpm and gradually increased thereafter.
3) Avoid prolonged constant speed operation. The internal components of the engine willbecome more quickly run in if the operationspeed is varied during the running in period.
4) Never allow the engine to labour. Use the gearbox freely and avoid large throttle open-ings when the engine speed is below 1500rpm.
5) Avoid rapid acceleration and maximum throttle openings.
6) Avoid harsh braking during the first 100 miles of urban motoring or 1000 miles ofmotorway driving to allow the friction facingsof the brake pads and shoes to bed againstthe discs and drums properly.

not be used.
B010F01A-EATOperation in Foreign CountriesDrivers of vehicles which are to be operated in
foreign countries must satisfy themselves that:
o The vehicle meets all local regulations with respect to insurance, specifications etc.,
o The correct types and grades of fuel are available for satisfactory operation of the vehicle.

ZB110M2-E CHARGING WARNING LIGHT
This red warning light indicates malfunctioning of the alternator and electrical charging system.If this warning light glows when the ignitionswitch is in the "ON" position (engine off), thebulb and electrical wiring are satisfactory. Thelight should go out when the engine is started.If the light glows when the engine is running, thealternator and electrical system should bechecked as soon as possible.
Warning Light Operation The parking brake/brake fluid level warning
light should come on when the parking brake is applied and the ignition switch is turned to "ON"or "START". After the engine is started, the lightshould go out when the parking brake is re-leased.
If the parking brake is not applied, the warning
light should come on when the ignition switch isturned to "ON" or "START", then go out whenthe engine starts. If the light comes on at anyother time, you should slow the vehicle andbring it to a complete stop in a safe location offthe roadway.
The brake warning light indicates that the brake
fluid level in the brake master cylinder is lowand hydraulic brake fluid conforming to DOT 3or DOT 4 specifications should be added. Afteradding fluid, if no other trouble is found, the carshould be immediately and carefully drivento a Hyundai dealer for inspection. If furthertrouble is experienced, the vehicle should notbe driven at all but taken to a dealer by aprofessional towing service or some other safemethod.
Your Hyundai is equipped with dual-diagonal
braking systems. This means you still havebraking on two wheels even if one of the dualsystems should fail. With only one of the dualsystems working, more than normal pedal trav-el and greater pedal pressure are required tostop the car. Also, the car will not stop in asshort a distance with only half of the brakesystem working. If the brakes fail while you are driving, shift to a lower gear for additional en-gine braking and stop the car as soon as it issafe to do so.

hold the vehicle in place by pressing on the accelerator. This can cause the automatictransaxle to overheat. Use the parking brakeor footbrake.
NOTE: When towing, check transaxle fluid more frequently. CAUTION: If overheating should occur when towing,
(temperature gauge reads near red zone),taking the following action may reduce oreliminate the problem.
1. Turn off the air conditioner.
2. Reduce highway speed.
3. Select a lower gear when going uphill.
4. While in stop and go traffic, place the gear selection in park or neutral and idle theengine at a higher speed.
being passed by a large vehicle, keep aconstant speed and steer straight ahead. If there is too much wind buffeting, slow
down to get out of the other vehicle's airturbulence.
8. When parking your car and trailer, especial- ly on a hill, be sure to follow all the normalprecautions. Turn your front wheel into thecurb, set the parking brake firmly, and putthe transaxle in 1st or Reverse (manual) orPark (automatic). In addition, place wheelchocks at each of the trailer's tyres.
9. If the trailer has electric brakes, start your vehicle and trailer moving, and then applythe trailer brake controller by hand to be
sure the brakes are working. This lets you
check your electrical connection at the sametime.
10. During your trip, check occasionally to be sure that the load is secure, and that thelights and any trailer brakes are still working.
11. Avoid jerky starts, sudden acceleration or sudden stops.
12. Avoid sharp turns and rapid lane changes.
13. Avoid holding the brake pedal down too long or too frequently. This could cause the brakes to overheat, resulting in reduced brakingefficiency.
14. When going down a hill, shift into a lower gear and use the engine braking effect.When ascending a long grade, downshift thetransaxle to a lower gear and reduce speedto reduce chances of engine overloading
and or overheating.
