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,in emergency situations or on slick roads, ABSwill increase vehicle control during braking.

o Do not hold the vehicle on the upgrade with the accelerator pedal. This can cause thetransaxle to overheat. Always use the brake
pedal or parking brake.
o Don't "ride" the brake pedal. Resting your
foot on the brake pedal while driving can bedangerous because it can result in the brakesoverheating and losing their effectiveness. Italso increases the wear of the brake compo-nents.
o If a tire goes flat while you are driving, apply the brakes gently and keep the car pointedstraight ahead while you slow down. Whenyou are moving slowly enough for it to be
safe to do so, pull off the road and stop in asafe place.
o If your car is equipped with an automatic transaxle, don't let your car creep forward.To avoid creeping forward, keep your foot
on the brake pedal when the car is stopped.
o Use caution when parking on a hill. Engage the parking brake and place the gear selec-tor lever in "P" (automatic transaxle) or in
first or reverse gear (manual transaxle). Ifyour car is facing downhill, turn the frontwheels into the curb to help keep the carfrom rolling. If your car is facing uphill, turnthe front wheels away from the curb to helpkeep the car from rolling. If there is no curb
or if it is required by other conditions to keepthe car from rolling, block the wheels.
o Under some conditions your parking brake can freeze in the engaged position. This ismost likely to happen when there is an
accumulation of snow or ice around or nearthe rear brakes or if the brakes are wet. If
there is a risk that the parking brake may
freeze, apply it only temporarily while you

resulting in the engine bucking. If this hap- pens, shift to a lower gear. Over-revving isracing the engine beyond its safe limit. Thiscan be avoided by shifting at the recom-mended speeds.
o Use your air conditioning sparingly. The air conditioning system is operated by enginepower so your fuel economy is reducedwhen you use it.

The more severe weather conditions of winter
result in greater wear and other problems. Tominimize the problems of winter driving, youshould follow these suggestions:

Snowy or Icy Conditions Snowy or Icy Conditions
Snowy or Icy Conditions
Snowy or Icy Conditions
To drive your vehicle in deep snow, it may be
necessary to use snow tires or to install tirechains on your tires. If snow tires are needed,
it is necessary to select tires equivalent in size
and type to the original equipment tires.
o Be sure that the wheels are aligned correct-
ly. Improper alignment can result from hittingcurbs or driving too fast over irregular sur-faces. 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 Hyundai should be kept clean and freeof corrosive 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 reduces fuel economy.
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 Hyundai does not require extended 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.
o Don't "lug" or "over-rev" the engine. Lugging is driving too slowly in too high a gear

You can save fuel and get more kilometers from
your car 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 pos-sible. Always maintain a safe distance fromother vehicles so you can avoid unneces-sary braking. 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 in-flation, either too much or too little, results inunnecessary tire wear. Check the tire pres-sures at least once a month.

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.

If your car has to be towed, it should be done by
your Hyundai dealer or a commercial tow truck service. This will help assure that your car isnot damaged in towing. Also, professionals aregenerally aware of state and local laws govern-ing towing. In any case, rather than risk dam-age to your car, it is suggested that you showthis information to the tow truck operator. Besure that a safety chain system is used and thatlocal laws are observed. o If the car is being towed with the rear wheels
on the ground, be sure the parking brake isreleased.
o If the car is being towed with the front wheels on the ground, be sure that thetransaxle is in neutral. Also, be sure that theignition key is in the "ACC" position. This isnecessary to prevent damage to the steer-ing lock mechanism, which is not designedto hold the front wheels straight while the caris being towed.
o If any of the loaded wheels or suspension components are damaged, a towing dollymust be used.

SNOW TIRES
If you equip your car with snow tires, they
should be the same size and have the sameload capacity as the original tires. Snow tiresshould be installed on all four wheels; other-wise, poor handling may result.
Snow tires should carry 28 kPa (4 psi) more air
pressure than the pressure recommended forthe standard tires on the tire label on the driverside center pillar outer panel, or up to themaximum pressure shown on the tire sidewallwhichever is less.
Do not drive faster than the speed limit when
your car is equipped with snow tires. I050A01X-GAT
