FEATURES OF YOUR HYUNDAI
1- 8 WARNING: Sitting in a reclined position or lying downwhen your vehicle is in motion can be dan-gerous. Even if you buckle up, your seat beltscan't do their job when you're reclined.The shoulder belt can't do its job because itwon't be against your body. Instead, it will bein front of you. In a crash you could go into itwith great force, receiving serious neck orother injuries.The lap belt can't do its job either. In a crashthe belt could go up over your abdomen. Thebelt forces would be applied there, not at yourpelvic bones.This could cause serious internal injuries.For proper protection when the vehicle is inmotion, have the seatback upright. Then sitwell back in the seat and wear your seat beltproperly. B160B01A-AAT Periodic Inspection It is recommended that all seat belts be inspected periodically for wear or damage of any kind.Parts of the system that are damaged should bereplaced as soon as possible.
B160A01S-GAT CARE OF SEAT BELTS Seat belt systems should never be disassembled or modified. In addition, care should be taken toassure that seat belts and belt hardware are notdamaged by seat hinges, doors or other abuse.
B150E01A-AAT Injured Person A seat belt should be used when an injured person is being transported. When this is neces-sary, you should consult a physician for recom-mendations. B150F01A-AAT One Person Per Belt Two people (including children) should never attempt to use a single seat belt. This couldincrease the severity of injuries in case of anaccident. B150G01A-AAT Do Not Lie Down To reduce the chance of injuries in the event of an accident, and to achieve maximum effective-ness of the restraint system, all passengersshould be sitting up and the front seats should bein an upright position when the car is moving. Aseat belt cannot operate properly if the person islying down in the rear seat or if the front seat is ina reclined position.
B150D01A-AAT Pregnant WomenThe use of a seat belt is recommended for pregnant women to lessen the chance of injury inan accident. When a seat belt is used, the lap beltportion should be placed as low and snugly aspossible on the hips, not across the abdomen.For specific recommendations, consult a physi-cian.
The possibility of injury or the severity of injury in
an accident will be decreased if this elementarysafety precaution is observed. In addition, thefollowing recommendations are made: B150B01A-GAT Infant or Small Child Some countries require the use of child restraint systems for infants and small children. Whetherthis is required by law or not, it is stronglyrecommended that a child restraint seat or infantrestraint system be used for infants or smallchildren weighing less than 18 kilograms (40pounds). B150C01A-AAT Larger Children Children who are too large for child restraint systems should occupy the
rear seat and use
the available lap/shoulder belts. The lap portionshould be fastened snug on the hips and as lowas possible. Check belt fit periodically. A child'ssquirming could move the belt out of position.If the larger child (over age 13) is in the front seat,the child should be securely restrained by theseat belt. Under no circumstances should thechild be allowed to stand or kneel on the seat.Children are afforded the most safety in the eventof an accident when they are restrained by aproper restraint system in the rear seat. Never
allow children to ride in the front passenger seat.

FEATURES OF YOUR HYUNDAI 1- 11
B230A02P-GAT CHILD RESTRAINT SYSTEM (If installed) Children riding in the car should sit in the rear seat and must always be restrained to minimizethe risk of injury in an accident, sudden stop orsudden maneuver. According to accident statis-tics, children are safer when properly restrainedin the rear seats than in the front seat. Largerchildren should use one of the seat belts pro-vided.You are required by law to use safety restraintsfor children. If small children ride in your vehicleyou must put them in a child restraint system(safety seat).Children could be injured in a crash if theirrestraints are not properly secured. For smallchildren and babies, a child seat or infant seatmust be used. Before buying a particular childrestraint system, make sure it fits your car seatand seat belts, and fits your child. Follow all theinstructions provided by the manufacturer wheninstalling the child restraint system. WARNING:
o A child restraint system must be placed in
the rear seat. Never install a child or infantseat on the front passenger's seat.Should an accident occur and cause thepassenger side airbag to deploy, it couldseverely injure or kill an infant or childseated in an infant or child seat. Thus, onlyuse a child restraint in the rear seat of yourvehicle.
B220C01A-AAT To Release the Seat Belt When you want to release the seat belt, press the button in the locking buckle. WARNING: The center lap belt latching mechanism isdifferent from those for the rear seat shoul-der belts. When fastening the rear seat shoul-der belts or the center lap belt, make surethey are inserted into the correct buckle toobtain maximum protection from the seatbelt system and assure proper operation.
B220B01A-AAT Adjusting Your Seat Belt
SSA1090T
With a 2-point static type seat belt, the length must be adjusted manually so it fits snugly aroundyour body. Fasten the belt and pull on the looseend to tighten. The belt should be placed as lowas possible on your hips, not on your waist. If thebelt is too high, it could increase the possibility ofyour being injured in an accident. Correct

1- 12 After installation of the child restraint system, try to move it in all directions to be sure the childrestraint system is securely installed.If you need to tighten the belt, pull more webbingtoward the retractor. When you unbuckle theseat belt and allow it to retract, the retractor willautomatically revert back to its normal seatedpassenger emergency locking usage condition. NOTE:
o Before installing the child restraint sys-
tem, read the instructions supplied by thechild restraint system manufacturer.
o If the seat belt does not operate as de- scribed, have the system checked imme-diately by your authorized Hyundai dealer.
WARNING:Do not install any child restraint system in thefront passenger seat. Should an accidentoccur and cause the passenger side airbagto deploy, it could severely injure or kill aninfant or child seated in an infant or childseat. Therefore, only use a child restraintsystem in the rear seat of your vehicle.
o Since a safety belt or child restraint sys-
tem can become very hot if it is left in aclosed vehicle, be sure to check the seatcover and buckles before placing a childthere.
o When the child restraint system is not in use, fasten it with a safety belt so that itwill not be thrown forward in the case of asudden stop or an accident.
o Children who are too large to be in a child restraint should sit in the rear seat and berestrained with the available lap/shoulderbelts. Never allow children to ride in thefront passenger seat.
o Always make sure that the shoulder belt portion of the outboard lap/shoulder beltis positioned midway over the shoulder,never across the neck. Moving the childcloser to the center of the vehicle may helpprovide a good shoulder belt fit. The lapbelt portion of the lap/shoulder belt or thecenter seat lap belt must always be posi-tioned as low as possible on the child'ships and as snug as possible.
o If the seat belt will not properly fit the child, we recommend the use of an ap-proved booster seat in the rear seat inorder to raise the child's seating height sothat the seat belt will properly fit the child.
o Never allow a child to stand up or kneel on the seat.
o Never use an infant carrier or child safety seat that "hooks" over a seatback; it may not provide adequate security in an acci-dent.
o Never allow a child to be held in a person's arms while they are in a moving vehicle, asthis could result in serious injury to thechild in the event of an accident or asudden stop. Holding a child in a movingvehicle does not provide the child withany means of protection during an acci-dent, even if the person holding the childis wearing a seat belt.

DRIVING YOUR HYUNDAI
2- 4 C070B01X-GAT
Using the Clutch of Manual transaxle 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.
CAUTION:
o The risk of rollover is greatly increased if you lose control of your vehicle at high-way speeds.
o Loss of control often occurs if two or more wheels drop off the roadway andthe driver oversteers to reenter the road-way.
o In the event your vehicle leaves the road- way, do not steer sharply. Instead, slowdown before pulling back into the travellanes.
o In a collision crash, on unbelted person is significantly more likely to die than aperson wearing a seatbelt.
o Ensure that the engine is not over-revved
by upshifting.
o Do not coast with the shift lever at the neutral position.
o When descending long gradients, make use of the engine braking to assist thefootbrake to avoid brake fade or over-heating.
o When slippery conditions are encoun- tered, increased caution should be ex-ecuted when gear changing, braking oraccelerating. Abrupt changes in speedmay cause a loss of traction.
o To shift into reverse, rest the lever in neutral for at least 3 seconds after yourcar is completely stopped. Then movethe lever into the reverse position.
o During cold weather, shifting may be dif- ficult until the transaxle lubricant haswarmed up. This is normal and not harm-ful to the transaxle.
o If you 've come to a complete stop and it's hard to shift into 1 st
or R(Reverse),
put the shift lever in N(Neutral) positionand let up on the clutch. Press the clutchpedal back down, and then shift into 1 st
or R(Reverse) gear position.
o Do not use the shift lever as a handrest during driving, as this can result in pre-mature wear of the transaxle shift forks. C070D01X-GAT
Good Driving Practices
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, slow
down 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.
WARNING: When downshifting from fifth gear to fourth gear, caution should be taken not to inad-vertently press the gear shift lever sideways
in such a manner that second gear is en-gaged. Such over revving of the engine may possibly cause engine damage.

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 legal
requirements. Since laws vary from province to province the
requirements for towing trailers, cars, or other types of vehicles or apparatus may differ. Askyour Hyundai dealer for further details beforetowing.
CAUTION: Do not do any towing with your car during
its first 2,000 km (1,200 miles) in order to allow the engine to properly break in. Fail-ure to heed this caution may result in seri-ous engine or transaxle 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 a quality non-equalizing hitch which distrib-
utes the tongue load uniformly throughout thechassis.
The hitch should be bolted securely to the car
and installed by a qualified technician. DO NOTUSE A HITCH DESIGNED FOR TEMPORARYINSTALLATION AND NEVER USE ONE THATATTACHES ONLY TO THE BUMPER.
C170A01A-AAT
HIGHER SPEED MOTORING Pre-Trip Inspections 1. Tires: Adjust the tire inflation pressures to specifica-
tion driving. Low tire inflation pressures will result in overheating and possible failure of thetires.
Avoid using worn or damaged tires which may
result in reduced traction or tire failure.
NOTE: Never exceed the maximum tire inflation
pressure shown on the tires.
2. Fuel, engine coolant and engine oil:High speed travel consumes 1.5 times more
fuel than urban motoring. Do not forget to check both engine coolant and engine oil. 3. Drive belt:
A loose or damaged drive belt may result in
overheating of the engine.
C180A01A-AAT
USE OF LIGHTS Check your lights regularly for correct operation
and always keep them clean. When driving during the day in conditions of poor visibility, itis helpful to drive with headlights on low beam.This enables you to be seen as well as to see.
rarily while you put the gear selector lever in"P" (automatic transaxle) or in first or reversegear (manual transaxle) and block the rearwheels so the car cannot roll. Then release theparking brake.
C160J01A-AAT
Don't Let Ice and Snow Accumulate Underneath
Under some conditions, snow and ice can build
up under the fenders and interfere with the steering. When driving in severe winter condi-tions where this may happen, you should peri-odically check underneath the car to be surethe movement of the front wheels and thesteering components are not obstructed.
C160K01A-AAT
Carry Emergency Equipment
Depending on the severity of the weather where
you drive your car, you should carry appropri-ate emergency equipment. Some of the itemsyou may want to carry include tire chains, towstraps or chains, flashlight, emergency flares,sand, a shovel, jumper cables, a windowscraper, gloves, ground cloth, coveralls, a blan-ket, etc.

DRIVING YOUR HYUNDAI 2- 13
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.
WARNING:
o The tongue load should never exceed;
Auto: 25kgManual : 28kg
o Maximun permissible mass of the cou- pling device (ATOS VAN only) : 20kg
o Improperly loading your car and trailer can seriously affect its steering and brak- ing performance causing a crash whichcould cause serious injury or death. kg.
