matically make two passes across the wind-
shield. The washer continues to operate until thelever is released. NOTE:
o Do not operate the washer more than 15
seconds at a time or when the fluid reser-voir is empty.
o In icy or freezing weather, be sure the wiper blades are not frozen to the glassprior to operating the wipers.
o In areas where water freezes in winter, use windshield washer antifreeze.

The windshield wiper switch has three positions:
1. Intermittent wiper operation
2. Low-speed operation
3. High-speed operation NOTE: To prevent damage to the wiper system, donot attempt to wipe away heavy accumula-tions of snow or ice. Accumulated snow andice should be removed manually. If there isonly a light layer of snow or ice, operate theheater in the defrost mode to melt the snow orice before using the wiper.

ZC170C1-E
Anti-freeze/Corrosion inhibitor The cooling system must always contain an
Ethylene-Glycol based anti-freeze solution. The system is filled during manufacture with solu-tion of the correct strength which should bechecked before the onset of winter and adjust-ed or changed as required.
NOTE: The anti-freeze solution contains a corro-
sion inhibitor to prevent degradation of the aluminum castings contained within theengine. Therefore, never, drain the systemand refill with water only.
In addition, anti-freeze solution must ALWAYS
be used in vehicles fitted with air conditioning,to prevent the heater matrix from freezing andsubsequently bursting with the refrigeration sys-tem in use. ZC170B1-E
Electrical System
Winter conditions impose severe demands upon
vehicle electrical systems, particularly the charg-ing circuit. The battery condition and perfor-mance along with the alternator performanceand drive belt condition should be checked priorto the onset of winter.
o Don’t "lug" or "over-rev" the engine. Lugging
is driving too slowly in too high a gearresulting in the engine bucking. If this hap-pens to you, shift to a lower gear. Over-revving is racing the engine beyond its safe limit. This can be avoided by shifting atthe recommended speeds.
o Use your air conditioning sparingly. The air conditioning system is operated by the en-gine power so your fuel economy is reducedwhen you use it.
SC160A1-F
SMOOTH CORNERING Avoid braking or gear changing in corners,
especially when roads are wet. Ideally, cornersshould always be taken under gentle accelera-tion. If you follow these suggestions, tire wearwill be held to a minimum.
SC170A1-E
WINTER MOTORING The onset of winter conditions subject motor
vehicles to greater operating demands. There-fore, the following suggestions will assist inmaintaining peak performance and reliabilityduring these periods: ZC170D1-E
Door Locks
Should the door lock mechanism become fro-
zen, a proprietary lock de-icer should be used.Alternatively, warming the door key may thawthe door lock. However, the key should behandled carefully to avoid burning the fingers.
Never attempt to thaw a frozen door lock using
hot water, since the water will eventually freezeand compound the problem.
NOTE:The proper temperature for using the immo-
bilizer key is from -40°F to 176°F(from -40°Cto 80°C). If you heat the immobilizer keyover 176°F(80°C) to open the frozen lock, itmay cause damage to the transponder in itshead.
ZC170E1-E
Windscreen Washers & Wipers The windscreen washer bottle should be filled
with a solution of water and a proprietary winterscreen wash additive. The windscreen wipersshould not be used it the blades are frozen tothe windscreen or if they are covered withsnow, before this is removed.
NOTE: Never allow undiluted screen washer fluid
additive to spill upon the paintwork or use engine coolant anti-freeze since damage tothe paintwork may result.

DRIVING YOUR HYUNDAI
2- 10 CAUTION:
o Never connect a trailer brake system di-
rectly to the vehicle brake system.
o When towing a trailer on steep grades (in excess of 12%) pay close attention to the engine coolant temperature gauge to
ensure the engine does not overheat. Ifthe needle of the coolant temperaturegauge moves across the dial towards"H" (HOT), pull over and stop as soon as
it is safe to do so, and allow the engine toidle until it cools down. You may proceed
once the engine has cooled sufficiently.
C190D01A-GAT
Safety Chains Should the hitch connection between your carand the trailer or vehicle you are towing fail, thetrailer or vehicle could wander dangerouslyacross other lanes of traffic and ultimately col-lide with another vehicle. To eliminate this po-tentially dangerous situation, safety chains, attached between your car and the trailer ortowed vehicle, are required in most provinces.
o When driving in extreme conditions, the
windscreen wiper blades may fail to clearthe screen properly due to the formation ofice upon the blade edge. It will therefore benecessary to periodically remove such iceto restore their efficiency.
o If the power operated door mirrors become frozen, attempts to adjust these may dam-age the mechanism.
o The formation of snow or ice build up inside the wheel arches may interfere with theroadwheels or steering mechanism. In suchinstances, unusual noises or an increase insteering effort may result. Therefore, ensurethat the wheelarches are checked periodi-cally and any accumulated snow or iceremoved.
o It is advisable to carry emergency equip- ment including, torch, shovel, tow rope, blan-kets etc., if a journey is to be undertaken intoareas of severe road conditions. CAUTION: Do not do any towing with your car during
its first 1,200 miles in order to allow the engine to properly break in. Failure to heedthis caution may result in serious engine ortransaxle damage.
C190B01S-AAT
Trailer Hitches Select the proper hitch and ball combination,
making sure that it's location is compatible withthat of the trailer or vehicle being towed. Use aquality non-equalizing hitch which distributesthe tongue load uniformly throughout the chas-sis.
The hitch should be bolted securely to the car
and installed by a qualified technician. DO NOTUSE A HITCH DESIGNED FOR TEMPORARY
INSTALLATION AND NEVER USE ONE THATATTACHES ONLY TO THE BUMPER.
C190A01A-EAT
TRAILER OR VEHICLE TOWING
If you are considering towing with your car, you
should first check with your Province Depart-ment of Motor Vehicles to determine their legalrequirements.
Since laws vary from province to province the
requirements for towing trailers, cars, or othertypes of vehicles or apparatus may differ. Askyour Hyundai dealer for further details beforetowing. C190C01X-GAT
Trailer Brakes If your trailer is equipped with a braking system,
make sure it conforms to federal and/or localregulations and that it is properly installed andoperating correctly. NOTE: If you tow a trailer or vehicle, your car will require more frequent maintenance due tothe additional load. See Maintenance UnderSevere Usage Conditions" on page 5-4.

WINDSHIELD WIPER BLADES
The wiper blades should be carefully inspected from time to time and cleaned to remove accu-mulations of road film or other debris. To clean the wiper blades and arms, use a clean sponge or cloth with a mild soap ordetergent and water. If the wipers continue to streak or smear the glass, replace them with genuine Hyundai re-placement parts or their equivalent. NOTE:
o Do not operate the wipers on dry glass. This can result in more rapid wear of the wiper blades and may scratch the glass.
o Keep the blade rubber out of contact with petroleum products such as engineoil, gasoline etc.G090A01X-EAT
FILLING THE WASHER RESERVOIR
The washer fluid reservoir supplies fluid to the
windshield washer system.
A good quality washer fluid should be used to fill
the washer reservoir. The fluid level should be checked more frequently during bad weather orwhenever the washer system is in more fre-quent use.
The capacity of the washer reservoir is 2.19
lmp.qts (2.5 Litres).
CAUTION:
o Radiator antifreeze (engine coolant) should not be used in the washer systembecause it will damage the car’s finish.
o The washer lever should not be pulled and the washer should not be operated ifthe washer reservoir is empty. This can
damage the washer fluid pump. XG100A2-E

CAUTION: The transaxle lubricant level should only be
checked when the engine is cold to preludethe possibility of personal injury by contactwith hot components.
1. To check the transaxle lubricant level, the vehicle should be placed on level ground and the level plug removed with a suitablespanner.
