The shift lever can be moved without
pressing the button (1).
The button (1) must be pressed while
moving the shift lever.
Manual Transmission Operation
The manual transmission has 6
forward gears. The transmission is fully
synchronized in all forward gears so
shifting to either a higher or a lower gear
is easily accomplished.
WARNING
•
Before leaving the driver’s seat,
always make sure the shift lever is in
1st gear when the vehicle is parked
on a uphill and in R (Reverse) on a
downhill, set the parking brake, and
place the Engine Start/Stop button
in the OFF position. Unexpected
vehicle movement may occur if these
precautions are not followed.
• When parking on an incline, block
the wheels to prevent the vehicle
from rolling down.
To shift to R (Reverse), make sure the
vehicle has completely stopped, and
then move the shift lever to neutral
before moving into R (Reverse).
When you've come to a complete stop
and it's hard to shift into 1st gear or R
(Reverse):
1. Put the shift lever in neutral and release the clutch pedal.
2. Depress the clutch pedal, and then shift into first or R (Reverse) gear.
Information
During cold weather, shifting may be
difficult until the transmission lubricant
has warmed up.

Driving Your Vehicle6-14
Good Driving Practices
• Never take the vehicle out of gear and coast down a hill. This is extremely
dangerous.
• Don't "ride" the brakes. This can cause the brakes and related parts to
overheat and malfunction.
• When you are driving down a long hill, slow down and shift to a lower gear.
Engine braking will help slow down
the vehicle.
• Slow down before shifting to a lower gear. This will help avoid over-revving
the engine, which can cause damage.
• Slow down when you encounter cross winds. This gives you much better
control of your vehicle.
• Be sure the vehicle is completely stopped before you shift into R
(Reverse) to prevent damage to the
transmission.
• Exercise extreme caution when driving on a slippery surface. Be
especially careful when braking,
accelerating or shifting gears. On a
slippery surface, an abrupt change
in vehicle speed can cause the drive
wheels to lose traction and may cause
loss of vehicle control resulting in an
accident. WARNING
Do not use the engine brake (shifting
from a higher gear to lower gear)
rapidly on slippery roads. The vehicle
may slip causing an accident.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of SERIOUS INJURY
or DEATH:
• ALWAYS wear your seat belt. In a
collision, an unbelted occupant
is significantly more likely to be
seriously injured or killed than a
properly belted occupant.
• Avoid high speeds when cornering or
turning.
• Do not make quick steering wheel
movements, such as sharp lane
changes or fast, sharp turns.
• The risk of rollover is greatly
increased if you lose control of your
vehicle at highway speeds.
• Loss of control often occurs if two or
more wheels drop off the roadway
and the driver over steers to reenter
the roadway.
• In the event your vehicle leaves
the roadway, do not steer sharply.
Instead, slow down before pulling
back into the t ravel lanes.
• HYUNDAI recommends you follow all
posted speed limits.

Transmission ranges
The indicator in the instrument cluster
displays the shift lever position when the
Engine Start/Stop button is in the ON
position.
P (Park)
Always come to a complete stop before
shifting in
to P (Park).
To shift from P (Park), you must depress
firmly on the brake pedal and make sure
your foot is off the accelerator pedal.
If you have done all of the above and
still cannot shift the lever out of P
(Park), see "Shift-Lock Release" in this
chapter.
The shift lever must be in P (Park) before
turning the engine off.
WARNING
• Shifting into P (Park) while the
vehicle is in motion may cause you to
lose control of the vehicle.
• After the vehicle has stopped, always
make sure the shift lever is in P
(Park), apply the parking brake, and
turn the engine off.
• Do not use the P (Park) position in
place of the parking brake.
R (Reverse)
Use this position to drive the vehicle
backw

ard.
NOTICE
Always come to a complete stop before
shifting into or out of R (Reverse); you
may damage the transaxle if you shift
into R (Reverse) while the vehicle is in
motion.
N (Neutral)
The wheels and transaxle are not
engaged.
U

se N (Neutral) if you need to restart a
stalled engine, or if it is necessary to stop
with the engine ON. Shift into P (Park)
if you need to leave your vehicle for any
reason.
Always depress the brake pedal when
you are shifting from N (Neutral) to
another gear.

Good Driving Practices
• Never move the shift lever from P (Park) or N (Neutral) to any other
position with the accelerator pedal
depressed.
• Never move the shift lever into P (Park) when the vehicle is in motion.
• Be sure the vehicle is completely stopped before you attempt to shift
into R (Reverse) or D (Drive).
• Do not move the shift lever to N (Neutral) when driving. Doing so
may result in an accident because
of a loss of engine braking and the
transmission could be damaged.
• When driving uphill or downhill, always shift to D (Drive) for driving
forward or shift to R (Reverse) for
driving backwards, and check the
gear position indicated on the cluster
before driving. Driving in the opposite
direction of the selected gear, can
lead to a dangerous situation by
shutting off the engine and affecting
the braking performance.
• Do not drive with your foot resting on the brake pedal. Even light, but
consistent pedal pressure can result
in the brakes overheating, brake wear
and possibly even brake failure.
• When driving in sports mode, slow down before shifting to a lower gear.
Otherwise, the lower gear may not be
engaged if the engine RPM is outside
of the allowable range.
• Always apply the parking brake when leaving the vehicle. Do not depend on
placing the transmission in P (Park) to
keep the vehicle from moving.
• Exercise extreme caution when driving on a slippery surface. Be
especially careful when braking,
accelerating or shifting gears. On a
slippery surface, an abrupt change
in vehicle speed can cause the drive
wheels to lose traction and may cause
loss of vehicle control resulting in an
accident. • Optimum vehicle performance and
economy is obtained by smoothly
depressing and releasing the
accelerator.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of SERIOUS INJURY
or DEATH:
• ALWAYS wear your seatbelt. In a
collision, an unbelted occupant
is significantly more likely to be
seriously injured or killed than a
properly belted occupant.
• Avoid high speeds when cornering or
turning.
• Do not make quick steering wheel
movements, such as sharp lane

the roadway.
• In the event your vehicle leaves
the roadway, do not steer sharply.
Instead, slow down before pulling
back into the t ravel lanes.
• HYUNDAI recommends you follow all
posted speed limits.
WARNING
If your vehicle is stuck in snow, mud,
sand, etc., you may attempt to free the
vehicle by rocking it back and forth. Do
not attempt this procedure if people or
objects are anywhere near. Vehicle may
suddenly move forward or backward as
it becomes unstuck, causing injury or
damage to nearby people or objects.

High Performance Brake
As this vehicles equipped with the
High Performance Brake (applied with
material having high coefficient of
friction), noise such as a squeal, squeak
or groan is generated while braking. This
is normal and the friction may create
circle patterns on the disc surface. This
is also a normal situation which does not
affect braking performance.
NOTICE
• Occasional brake noise is normal. If
a continuous grinding or continuous
squeal sound is present, the
brake lining may be worn-out. We
recommend that the vehicle be
checked by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer.
• If the vehicle has continuous
vibration or shudder in the steering
wheel while braking, we recommend
that the vehicle be checked by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
WARNING
Frequent speeding and braking may
deform components and worn the disc
brake causing vibration when braking.
Prevent brake damage by avoiding
excessive braking. Brake wear, noise,
vibration from excessive braking or
deformation of the brakes caused
by repeatedly braking in high speed,
racing on tracks, etc., can be excluded
from warranty coverage.
Parking Brake
Applying the parking brake
OCN7080008OCN7080008
Always set the parking brake before
leaving the vehicle, to apply:
Firmly depress the brake pedal.
Pull up the parking brake lever as far as
possible.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of SERIOUS INJURY
or DEATH, do not operate the parking
brake while the vehicle is moving
except in an emergency situation. It
could damage the brake system and
lead to an accident.

Anti-lock Brake System (ABS)
WARNING
An Anti-Lock Braking System (ABS) or
an Electronic Stability Control (ESC)
system will not prevent accidents
due to improper or dangerous driving
maneuvers. Even though vehicle
control is improved during emergency
braking, always maintain a safe
distance between you and objects
ahead of you. Vehicle speeds should
always be reduced during extreme
road conditions. The braking distance
for cars equipped with ABS or ESC
may be longer than for those without
these systems in the following road
conditions.
Drive your vehicle at reduced speeds
during the following conditions:
• Rough, gravel or snow-covered
roads.
• On roads where the road surface is
pitted or has different surface height.
• Tire chains are installed on your
vehicle.
The safety features of an ABS or ESC
equipped vehicle should not be tested
by high speed driving or cornering. This
could endanger the safety of yourself or
others.
ABS is an electronic braking system that
helps prevent a braking skid. ABS allows
the driver to steer and brake at the same
time.
Using ABS
To obtain the maximum benefit from
your ABS in an emergency situation,
do not attempt to modulate your brake
pressure and do not try to pump your
brakes. Depress your brake pedal as hard
as possible.
When you apply your brakes under
conditions which may lock the wheels,
you may hear sounds from the brakes,
or feel a corresponding sensation in the
brake pedal. This is normal and it means
your ABS is active.
ABS does not reduce the time or distance
it takes to stop the vehicle.
Always maintain a safe distance from the
vehicle in front of you.
ABS will not prevent a skid that results
from sudden changes in direction, such
as trying to take a corner too fast or
making a sudden lane change. Always
drive at a safe speed for the road and
weather conditions.
ABS cannot prevent a loss of stability.
Always steer moderately when braking
hard. Severe or sharp steering wheel
movement can still cause your vehicle to
veer into oncoming traffic or off the road.
On loose or uneven road surfaces,
operation of the anti-lock brake system
may result in a longer stopping distance
than for vehicles equipped with a
conventional brake system.
The ABS warning light (
) will stay on
for several seconds after the Engine
Start/Stop button is in the ON position.
During that time, the ABS will go through
self-diagnosis and the light will go off if
everything is normal. If the light stays on,
you may have a problem with your ABS.
Contact an authorized HYUNDAI dealer
as soon as possible.

ESC operation
ESC ON condition
When the engine is turned off and then
on again, ESC oper
ation is enabled,
and it is activated in the ESC operating
mode (not in ESC Sport mode or ESC
OFF mode) regardless of the ESC mode
before turning off the engine.
You may select between the following
state of ESC:
• ESC NORMAL activated (ESC ON)
• ESC SPORT activated (ESC SPORT indicator illuminates)
• ESC deactivated (ESC OFF indicator illuminates)
When operating
When the ESC is in operation,
the ESC indicator light blinks:
• When you apply your brakes under conditions which may lock the wheels,
you may hear sounds from the brakes,
or feel a corresponding sensation in
the brake pedal. This is normal and it
means your ESC is active.
• When the ESC activates, the engine may not respond to the accelerator as
it does under routine conditions.
• If Cruise Control was in use when the ESC activates, Cruise Control
automatically disengages. Cruise
Control can be reengaged when the
road conditions allow. See “Cruise
Control (CC)” in chapter 7.
• When moving out of the mud or driving on a slippery road, the engine
RPM (revolutions per minute) may
not increase even if you press the
accelerator pedal deeply. This is to
maintain the stability and traction of
the vehicle and does not indicate a
problem.

WARNING
• If you deactivate ESC, ESC no longer
stabilizes the vehicle. There is an
increased risk of skidding and an
accident.
• When ESC SPORT mode is activated,
the stability support from ESC will
be less than in "ESC ON mode", there
is a greater risk of skidding and an
accident.
Only deactivate ESC or activate ESC
SPORT in the situations described in the
following.
In the following situations, it may
be better to activate ESC SPORT or
deactivate ESC (ESC OFF):
• When using snow chains
• Driving in deep snow
• Driving in sand or gravel
• Driving on specially designed roads where oversteering and understeering
characteristics are desired
We recommend only qualified and
experienced drivers to drive the vehicle
with the ESC deactivated or ESC SPORT
activated.
CAUTION
After the above situations are over,
activate ESC immediately. If not, the
vehicle can be unstable due to vehicle
slip or wheel spin.

ESC SPORT
To activate ESC SPORT mode
•
Press the ESC OFF button briefly. The
ESC SPORT indicator light illuminates
on the cluster LCD display. In this
state, ESC only stabilizes the vehicle
to a limited degree.
When ESC SPORT mode is activated:
• ESC only improves driving stability to a limited degree.
• Traction control is still activated, but with less wheel control (more slip).
• Engine torque can partially be limited for the vehicle's stability and the
driving wheel spin may be restricted
for better traction.
To deactivate ESC SPORT mode
• Press the ESC OFF button briefly. The ESC SPORT indicator light will go off
on the cluster LCD display.
