To assure that you receive the greatest number
of kilometers of satisfying operation from your Hyundai, certain maintenance procedures must
be performed. Although careful design and en-
gineering have reduced these to a minimum,those that are required are of the utmost impor-tance. It is your responsibility to have these mainte-
nance procedures performed to comply with theterms of the warranties covering your newHyundai. The Service Passport supplied withyour new vehicle provides further information
about these warranties. F010B01A-AAT

These are the procedures such as inspections,
adjustments and replacements that are listed in the maintenance charts starting on page 5-2.These procedures must be performed at theintervals shown in the maintenance schedule to
assure that your warranty remains in effect.Although it is strongly recommended that they
be performed by the factory-trained or distribu-tor-trained technicians at your Hyundai dealer,
these procedures may be performed at any
qualified service facility.
It is suggested that genuine Hyundai service
parts be used for any required repairs or re-placements. Other parts of equivalent quality
such as engine oil, engine coolant, manual orauto transaxle oil, brake fluid and so on which
are not supplied by Hyundai Motor Company or
its distributor may be used without affectingyour warranty coverage but you should always
be sure these are equivalent to the quality of theoriginal Hyundai parts. Your Service Passport
provides further information about your warran-ty coverage. F010E01A-AAT

STARTING (For Multiport Fuel Injection)
Normal starting with either a cold or warm
engine is obtained without pumping or depress- ing the accelerator pedal. Simply turn the key to
the "START" position and release when the
engine starts.
After the engine has started, allow the engine to
run for 10 to 20 seconds prior to placing thevehicle in gear.
The starter should not be operated for more
than 15 seconds at a time. Wait 15-30 secondsbetween starting attempts to protect the starterfrom overheating.
WARNING:Never run the engine in a closed or poorly
ventilated area any longer than is needed tomove your car in or out of the area. Thecarbon monoxide gas emitted is odorlessand can cause serious injury or death. C050B02X-GAT
Normal Conditions:
The Starting Procedure:
1. Insert key, and fasten the seat belt.
2. Depress the clutch pedal fully (manual transaxle) and place the gearshift lever in neutral (manual transaxle) or the selectorlever (automatic transaxle) in "P" (park)position.
3. After turning the ignition key to the "ON" position, make certain all warning lights andgauges are functioning properly before start-
ing the engine.
WARNING: Be sure that the clutch is fully depressed
when starting a manual transaxle vehicle. Otherwise, there is the potential to cause
damage to the vehicle or injury to someoneinside or outside the vehicle as a result ofthe forward or backward movement of the
vehicle that will occur if the clutch is notdepressed when the vehicle is started.
4. Turn the ignition key to the "Start" position and release it when the engine starts. DC090C1-E
FUEL ECONOMY
The following suggestions are made to assist in
achieving the greatest degree of fuel economy.
o Maintaining a constant check on fuel con- sumption will enable the most economical use pattern and driving style to be adopted.
o Avoid using the vehicle for very short jour- neys if possible, particularly when a coldstart is involved.
o Ensure that tyre pressures are maintained at the correct level.
o Use only the recommended grade of fuel.
o Avoid carrying unnecessary weight, and if a roof rack is in use, remove it as soon aspossible after use.
o Anticipate the road and conditions ahead to enable adjustments in speed to be madesmoothly. Avoid heavy acceleration andsharp braking.
o Avoid cruising at unnecessary high speeds.
o Always ensure that the periodic maintenance services are performed by a Hyundai dealer at the time and/or mileage intervals speci-fied.
o Use the air conditioner only when neces- sary.
