DRIVING YOUR HYUNDAI 2- 11
o Remember, your car does not require ex-
tended warm-up. As soon as the engine is running smoothly, you can drive away. In very 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 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 at the recommended speeds.
o Use your air conditioning sparingly. The air conditioning system is operated by the en-gine power so your fuel economy is reduced when you use it.
SC160A1-F SMOOTH CORNERINGAvoid braking or gear changing in corners, especially when roads are wet. Ideally, corners should always be taken under gentle accelera- tion. If you follow these suggestions, tire wear will be held to a minimum. SC170A1-E WINTER MOTORINGThe onset of winter conditions subject motor vehicles to greater operating demands. There- fore, the following suggestions will assist in maintaining peak performance and reliability during these periods: ZC170B1-E Electrical SystemWinter conditions impose severe demands upon vehicle electrical systems, particularly the charg- ing circuit. The battery condition and perfor- mance along with the alternator performance and drive belt condition should be checked prior to the onset of winter. ZC170C1-E Anti-freeze/Corrosion inhibitorThe 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 be checked 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 the engine. Therefore, never, drain the system and 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 and subsequently bursting with the refrigeration sys- tem in use.
ZC170D1-E Door LocksShould the door lock mechanism become fro- zen, a proprietary lock de-icer should be used. Alternatively, warming the door key may thaw the door lock. However, the key should be handled carefully to avoid burning the fingers. Never attempt to thaw a frozen door lock using hot water, since the water will eventually freeze and compound the problem. NOTE: The proper temperature for using the immo-bilizer key is from -40°F (-40°C) to 176°F (80°C). If you heat the immobilizer key over 176°F (80°C) to open the frozen lock, it may cause damage to the transponder in its head. SC170E1-E Windscreen Washers and WipersThe windscreen washer bottle should be filled with a solution of water and a proprietary winter screen wash additive. The windscreen wipers should not be used if the blades are frozen to the windscreen or if they are covered with snow, 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 to the paintwork may result.
