o The brake pedal fully depressed in order to move the shift leverfrom the "P" (Park) position to any of the other positions.
o It is always possible to shift from "R", "N", "D", "3"(1.8 / 2.0 DOHC),"2", "L" position to "P" position.The vehicle must be fully stopped to avoid trans©23
axle damage. C090I02E-GAT
CAUTION:
o Shift into "R" and "P" position only when the vehicle has com- pletely stopped.
o Do not accelerate the engine in reverse or any of the forwardpositions with the brakes applied.
o Always apply the footbrake when shifting from "P" or "N", to "R",
"D","3"(1.8 / 2.0 DOHC), "2" or"L" position.
o Do not use the "P" (Park) posi-
tion in place of the parking brake.Always set the parking brake, shift the transaxle into "P" (Park) position and turn off the ignitionwhen you leave the vehicle, even momentarily. Never leave the vehicle unattended while the en-gine is running.
o Check the automatic transaxle
fluid level regularly, and add fluidas necessary. See the maintenance schedule for the proper fluid recommen-dation.

C090G01S-GAT o L (Low gear): Use for driving up a very steep grade or for engine braking when descendingsteep hills. When downshifting to "L", the transaxle will temporarily remain in second gear until the vehicle hasslowed enough for low gear to engage. Do not exceed 50 km/h (30 mph) in low gear."L" shifts to 1st gear only. However, shift up to 2nd is performed when the car exceeds a certain speed and, asspeed increases, the transaxle will shift up to 3rd gear to prevent over-revving the engine.

C160H01A-AAT Use Approved Anti-Freeze in Window Washer System To keep the water in the window washer system from freezing, add an approvedanti-freeze solution in accordance with instructions on the container. Window washer anti-freeze is available fromHyundai dealers and most auto parts outlets. Do not use engine coolant or other types of anti-freeze as thesemay damage the finish.
C160G02A-GAT To Keep Locks from Freezing To keep the locks from freezing, squirt an approved de-icer fluid or glycerineinto the key opening. If a lock is cov- ered with ice, squirt it with an approved de-icing fluid to remove the ice. If thelock is frozen internally, you may be able to thaw it out by using a heated key. Handle the heated key with careto avoid injury. NOTE: The proper temperature for using the immobilizer key is from -40°C (- 40°F) to 80°C(176°F). If you heat the immobilizer key over 80°C to openthe frozen lock, it may cause dam- age to the transponder in its head.
C160D01A-AAT Check Battery and Cables Winter puts additional burdens on the battery system. Visually inspect thebattery and cables as described in Section 6. The level of charge in your battery can be checked by your Hyundaidealer or a service station. C160F01A-AAT Check Spark Plugs and Ignition System Inspect your spark plugs as described in Section 6 and replace them if neces-sary. Also check all ignition wiring and components to be sure they are not cracked, worn or damaged in any way.

31CHECKING AND REPLACING FUSES
G200A01A-AAT
Replacing a Fusible Link
A fusible link will melt if the electrical circuits from the battery are ever over-loaded, thus preventing damage to the entire wiring harness. (This could be caused by a short in the systemdrawing too much current.) If this ever happens, have a Hyundai dealer determine the cause, repair the sys-tem and replace the fusible link. The fusible links are located in a fuse box for easy inspection. Good

Replacing Accessory Fuses
HXDFL200
CAUTION:
When replacing a fusible link, never
use anything but a new fusible link with the same or lower amper- age rating. Never use a piece ofwire or a higher-rated fusible link. This could result in serious dam- age and create a fire hazard.
! The fuse box for the lights and other electrical accessories will be found inthe backside of multi box located in the left side of the driver. On the backside of the multi box, you will finda list showing the circuits protected by each fuse. If any of your car's lights or other electrical accessories stop working, a blown fuse could be the reason. If the fuse has burned out, you will see thatthe metal strip inside the fuse has burned through. If you suspect a blown fuse, follow this procedure:
1. Turn off the ignition and all other switches.
2. Open the fuse box and examine each fuse. Remove each fuse by pulling it toward you (a small "fuse puller" tool is contained in the fusebox to simplify this operation).
3. Be sure to check all other fuses
even if you find one that appears tohave burned out.

CHECKING ELECTRIC COOLING FANS
G220A01A-AAT
WARNING:
The cooling fan is controlled by
engine coolant temperature and may sometimes operate even whenthe engine is not running. Use extreme caution when working near the blades of the cooling fan,so that you are not injured by a rotating fan blade. As the engine coolant temperature decreases thefan will automatically shut off. This is a normal condition.
o When lifting a plastic-cased bat-
tery, excessive pressure on the case may cause battery acid toleak, resulting in personal injury. Lift with a battery carrier or with your hands on opposite corners.
o Never attempt to charge the bat- tery when the battery cables areconnected.
o The electrical ignition system works with high voltage. Never touch these components with the engine running or the ignition switched on.
The power steering fluid level should
be checked regularly.

POWER STEERING HOSES
It is suggested that you check the
power steering hose connections for fluid leakage at regular intervals. The power steering hoses should be re-placed if there is severe surface crack- ing, scuffing or worn spots. Deteriora- tion of the hose could cause prema-ture failure.
To check the power steering fluid level,
be sure the ignition is "OFF", thencheck to make certain that the power steering fluid level is between the "MAX" and "MIN" level markings onthe fluid reservoir.
NOTE: Grinding noise from the power
steering pump may be heard im- mediately after the engine is startedin extremely cold conditions (be- low - 20°C). In this case, if the noise stops during warm up, thereis no abnormal function in the sys- tem. This is due to a power steer- ing fluid characteristic in extremelycold conditions. Recommended Fluid:
Use PSF-3 type fluidNOTE: Do not start the engine when the
power steering oil reservoir is empty. If the fuel filter warning lamp illumi-
nates during driving, it indicates that water has accumulated in the fuel filter. If this occurs, remove the water as described.
