C090F02GK-GAT Sports Mode
HGK175
Whether the vehicle is stationary or in motion, sports mode is selected by pushing the selectorlever from the "D" position into the manual gate.To return to "D" range operation, push the selec-tor lever back into the main gate.In sports mode, moving the selector lever back-wards and forwards can make rapid gearshiftssimple. In contrast to a manual transaxle, thesports mode allows gearshifts with the accelera-tor pedal depressed.UP (+) : Push the lever forward once to shift up
one gear.DOWN (-) : Pull the lever backwards once to shift
down one gear.
C090E01O-AAT
o D(Drive):Use for normal driving. The transaxle will auto- matically shift through a four gear sequence.
CAUTION:
o In sports mode, the driver must execute
shifts in accordance with prevailing roadconditions, taking care to keep the enginespeed below the red zone.
o For engine protection, upward shifts are made automatically when the engine rpmreaches the red zone.
o By rapidly moving the selector lever back- wards (-) twice it is possible to skip onegear by using the sports mode. Sincesudden engine braking and/or rapid ac-celeration can cause a loss of traction,however, downshifts must be made care-fully in accordance with the vehicle'sspeed.
NOTE:
o In sports mode, only the four forward gears can be selected. To reverse or parkthe vehicle, move the selector lever to the"R" or "P" position as required.
o In sports mode, downward shifts are made automatically when the vehicle slowsdown. When the vehicle stops, 1st gear isautomatically selected.
o To maintain the required levels of vehicle performance and safety, the system maynot execute certain gearshifts when theselector lever is operated.
C090H01L-GAT NOTE:
o For smooth and safe operation, depressthe brake pedal when shifting from "Neu- tral" position or "Park" position to a for-ward or reverse gear.
o The ignition key must be in the "ON" position and the brake pedal fully de-pressed in order to move the shift leverfrom the "P" (Park) position to any of theother positions.
o It is always possible to shift from "R", "N", "D" position to "P" position. The vehiclemust be fully stopped to avoid transaxledamage.
o Before driving away from a stop on a
slippery road, push the selector lever for-ward into the +(UP) position. This causesthe transaxle to shift into 2nd gear whichis better for smooth driving away on aslippery road. Push the selector lever tothe -(DOWN) side to shift back to 1st gear.

2- 10 2) When the traction control system is oper-
ating properly, you can feel a slight pulsa- tion in the vehicle. This is only the effect ofbrake control and indicates nothing un-usual.
3) When the engine starts, a click is heard from the engine compartment; however,this is only the sound of traction controlbeing checked.
4) When moving out of the mud or fresh snow, pressing the accelerator pedal maynot cause the engine speed to increasedue to TCS operation.
C310D01O-AAT Indicators and Warning The indicators should illuminate when the igni- tion key is turned to ON or START but should goout after three seconds.If the indicators do not illuminate, or the TCS orTCS-OFF indicator does not go out after 3 sec-onds, have it checked by an authorized dealer. Should there be any unusual conditions in the device while driving, TCS-OFF indicator illumi-nates as a warning.If TCS-OFF indicator illuminates, pull your car toa safe place and stop the engine.Then, start the engine again to check if the TCS-OFF indicator goes out.
C300A03Y-GAT TRACTION CONTROL SYSTEM (TCS) (If installed)
HGK156A
CAUTION: When the TCS indicator blinks, SLIP controlhas been activated. It also means that theroad is slippery or your car is acceleratingexcessively. In this situation, gently releasefoot pressure from the accelerator pedal andmaintain moderate speed. WARNING: Traction control is only a driving aid; allnormal precautions for driving in inclementweather and on slippery road surfaces shouldbe observed.
On slippery road surfaces, the traction controlsystem (TCS) limits the drive wheels from spin-ning excessively, thus helping the car to acceler-ate. It also provides sufficient driving force andsteering performance as the car turns at acceler-ated speeds. SLIP Control Limits the drive wheels from spinning exces- sively during starting or while making accelerat-ed turns on slippery roads to avoid losing thedriving force of the front wheels. Driving hints TCS does not actively apply brakes. Be sure to decelerate the car sufficiently before enteringcurves. C310B01O-AAT TCS ON/OFF Mode When the TCS is running, the TCS indicator light in the instrument cluster will blink.If you turn the system off by pressing the TCSswitch, the TCS-OFF indicator light will come onand stay on. In the TCS-OFF mode, the SLIPcontrol will be deactivated. Adjust you drivingaccordingly. To turn the system back on, pressthe switch again. The TCS-OFF indicator lightshould go off. NOTE:
1) The TCS mode will automatically be turned
ON after the engine is turned off and re-started.

2- 12 C160G01A-GAT To Keep Locks from FreezingTo keep the locks from freezing, squirt an ap- proved de-icer fluid or glycerine into the keyopening. If a lock is covered with ice, squirt it withan approved de-icing fluid to remove the ice. Ifthe lock is frozen internally, you may be able tothaw it out by using a heated key. Handle theheated key with care to avoid injury. NOTE: The proper temperature for using the immo-bilizer key is from -40°C to 80°C. If you heatthe immobilizer key over 80°C to open thefrozen lock, it may cause damage to thetransponder in its head. C160H01A-AAT Use Approved Anti-Freeze in Window Washer System To keep the water in the window washer system from freezing, add an approved anti-freeze solu-tion in accordance with instructions on the con-tainer. Window washer anti-freeze is availablefrom Hyundai dealers and most auto parts out-lets. Do not use engine coolant or other types ofanti-freeze as these may damage the finish.
C160B01A-GAT Snowy or Icy ConditionsTo 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, itis necessary to select tires equivalent in size andtype to the original equipment tires. Failure to doso may adversely affect the safety and handlingof your car. Speeding, rapid acceleration, sud-den brake applications, and sharp turns arepotentially very hazardous practices. Duringdeceleration, use engine braking to the fullestextent. Sudden brake applications on snowy oricy roads may cause skids to occur. You need tokeep sufficient distance between the vehicle infront and your vehicle. Also, apply the brakegently. It should be noted that installing tire chainson the tire will provide a greater driving force, butwill not prevent side skids. NOTE: Tire chains are not legal in all provinces.Check province laws before fitting tire chains. C160C01A-AAT Use High Quality Ethylene Glycol Coolant Your Hyundai is delivered with high quality ethyl- ene glycol coolant in the cooling system. It is theonly type of coolant that should be used becauseit helps prevent corrosion in the cooling system,lubricates the water pump and prevents freezing.Be sure to replace or replenish your coolant in
C160D01F-AAT Check Battery and Cables Winter puts additional burdens on the battery system. Visually inspect the battery and cablesas described in Section 6 (See page 6-18). Thelevel of charge in your battery can be checkedby your Hyundai dealer or a service station. C160E01A-AAT Change to "Winter Weight" Oil if Necessary In some climates it is recommended that a lower viscosity "winter weight" oil be used during coldweather. See Section 9 for recommendations. Ifyou aren't sure what weight oil you should use,consult your Hyundai dealer. C160F01F-GAT Check Spark Plugs and Ignition Sys- tem Inspect your spark plugs as described in Section 6 (See page 6-8) and replace them if necessary.Also check all ignition wiring and components tobe sure they are not cracked, worn or damagedin any way.
accordance with the maintenance schedule inSection 5. Before winter, have your coolant test-ed to assure that its freezing point is sufficient forthe temperatures anticipated during the winter.
