C055B01B-GAT STARTING AND STOPPING THE ENGINE FOR TURBO CHARGER INTERCOOLER (DIESEL EN-GINE)
(1) Do not race the engine or sudden
accelerate the engine immediately after start it. If the engine is cold,allow the engine to idle for severalseconds before it is driven to en-sure sufficient lubrication of the turbo charger unit.
(2) After high speed or extended driv- ing, requiring a heavy engine load, the engine should be allowed to idleabout 1 minute before turning it off.This idle time will allow the turbo charger to cool prior to shutting the engine off.
WARNING:
Do not turn the engine off immedi-ately after it has been subjected to a heavy load. Doing so may cause severe damage to the engine orturbo charger unit.
WARNING:
Be sure that the clutch is fully de-pressed when starting a manualtransaxle vehicle. Otherwise thereis the potential to cause damage tothe vehicle or injury to someone inside or outside the vehicle as a result of the forward or backwardmovement of the vehicle that willoccur if the clutch is not depressedwhen the vehicle is started. SC060B1-E FUEL ECONOMY The following suggestions are made to assist in achieving the greatest degreeof fuel economy.
o Maintaining a constant check on
fuel consumption will enable the most economical use pattern anddriving style to be adopted.
o Avoid using the vehicle for very short journeys if possible, particu-larly when a cold start is involved.
o Ensure that tyre pressures are main-
tained at the correct level.
o Use only the recommended grade
of fuel.
o Avoid carrying unnecessary weight,
and if a roof rack is in use, remove it as soon as possible after use.
o Anticipate the road and conditions ahead to enable adjustments in speed to be made smoothly. Avoidheavy acceleration and sharp brak-ing.
o Avoid cruising at unnecessary high
speeds.
5. Turn the ignition key to the "Start"
position and release it when theengine starts.

SC130A1-E OVERDRIVE SWITCH
The overdrive switch prevents the transaxle upshifting higher than thirdgear when the switch is turned "OFF".The transaxle will start from rest in firstgear and upshift to second and thirdgear depending upon the roadspeed and throttle opening but will not upshift to fourth gear. When the overdriveswitch is turned "ON", the transaxlewill start from rest in first gear and willupshift, depending upon roadspeedand throttle opening to second, third and fourth gear. Therefore, when the overdrive switch is turned "OFF", thetransaxle performs as a three speedunit and the overdrive warning light
o When ascending steep gradients
using large throttle openings, thetransaxle may re-peatedly changebetween two adjacent ratios. This isa normal characteristic and may be prevented by cancelling the over- drive facility if the shifting occursbetween third and fourth ratios, se-lecting position "2" if the shiftingoccurs between third and secondratios or selecting position "1" if the shifting occurs between first and second ratios.
o Never move the selector to or from
the "P" or "N" position with the ac-celerator depressed.
o Ensure that the overdrive switch is at the "ON" position for maximumeconomy.
o If rapid acceleration is required, fully
depress the accelerator pedal. Inthis condition, the kickdown mecha-nism will be operated and the transaxle will automatically down- shift according to the vehicle speed. o The automatic transaxle may be
used to great effect if the vehiclebecomes stuck in snow or mud byallowing the vehicle to be rocked toand fro. The engine speed should be held at approximately 1,000rpm by means of the accelerator pedaland the selector lever moved be-tween the "D" and "R" positions toinduce a rocking motion.
o Do not depress the accelerator pedal with the brakes applied and the se-lector at the "R", "D", "2" or "L"position.
o Turn the overdrive switch on for good fuel economy and smooth driv-ing. But if engine braking is needed in the "D" range or if repeated up- shifting and downshifting betweenthe 3rd and 4th gear is needed whenclimbing a gentle slope, it is recom-mended that the overdrive switchbe turned off. Turn the overdrive switch back on immediately after- ward.

!WARNING:
ABS will not prevent accidents due to improper or dangerous drivingmaneuvers. Even though vehicle control is improved during emer- gency braking, always maintain asafe distance between you and ob-jects ahead. Vehicle speeds shouldalways be reduced during extremeroad conditions. The braking distance for cars equipped with an anti-lock brakingsystem may be longer than for thosewithout it in the following road con-ditions.
o Driving on rough, gravel or snow- covered roads.
o Driving with tyre chains installed.
o Driving on roads where the road
surface is pitted or has differentsurface height. These roads should be driven at reduced speeds. The safety features of an ABS equipped vehicle shouldnot be tested by high speed drivingor cornering. This could endangerthe safety of yourself or others. SC150A1-F DRIVING FOR ECONOMY You can save fuel and get more miles from your car if you follow these sug-gestions:
o Drive smoothly. Accelerate at a
moderate rate. Don't make "jack- rabbit" starts or full-throttle shiftsand maintain a steady cruisingspeed. Don't race between stop-lights. Try to adjust your speed tothat of the other traffic so you don't have to change speeds unneces- sarily.Avoid heavy traffic whenever pos-sible. Al-ways maintain a safe dis-tance from other vehicles so youcan avoid unnecessary braking. This also reduces brake wear. o Drive at a moderate speed. The
faster you drive, the more fuel your car uses. Driving at a moderatespeed, especially on the highway, isone of the most effective ways to reduce fuel consumption.
o Don't "ride" the brake or clutch pedal. This can increase fuel consumption and also increase wear on thesecomponents. In addition, driving withyour foot resting on the brake pedal may cause the brakes to overheat, which reduces their effectivenessand may lead to more serious con-sequences.
o Take care of your tyres. Keep them inflated to the recommended pres- sure. Incorrect infla-tion, either too much or too little, results in unnec-essary tyre wear. Check the tyrepres-sures at least once a month.
o Be sure that the wheels are aligned correctly. Improper alignment can result from hitting curbs or driving too fast over irregular surfaces. Pooralignment causes faster tyre wearand may also result in other prob-lems as well as greater fuel con-sumption.

HTB221
CAUTION:
If the engine refuses to start, no
attempt should be made to push or
tow start the vehicle. Vehicles with
automatic transaxle or fuel injec-
tion will not be able to be started in
this manner since no drive is trans-
mitted through the automatic
transaxle whilst the engine is not
running, and in the case of fuel
injected derivatives, the fuel pump
will not operate under tow start
conditions. In addition, if the ve-
hicle is equipped with an exhaust
catalyst, damage to the catalyst may
result if the vehicle is tow started. 4. Do not attempt to push or tow start
the vehicle, refer to "Jump Starting"
for information regarding engine
starting when the battery is dis-
charged.
1. Check fuel Level
2. Check all connectors at ignition coil and spark plugs.
Replace any that may be discon-
nected or loose.
3. Check fuel line in the engine com- partment.
4. If engine still refuses to start, call a
Hyundai dealer or seek other quali-
fied assistance.

WARNING:
Motor vehicle batteries contain
sulphuric acid and emit hydrogen
gas. Protective clothing should be
worn and care exercised to prevent
the acid from coming into contact
with skin or clothing and the ve-
hicle. Naked lights should not be
permitted in the vicinity of the bat-
tery. Care should be exercised to
prevent sparks occurring during
connection. If acid accidentally
comes into contact with skin or
eyes, the affected area should im-
mediately be flushed with copious
amounts of water and medical as-
sistance sought. 1. Ensure that the booster battery is
12 volt type. If the booster battery is
installed in another vehicle, ensure
that the two vehicles are not touch-
ing.
2. Turn off all unnecessary electrical equipment in both vehicles.
3. Ensure that the engine of the ve-
hicle providing the jump start is run-
ning prior to connection of the jump
cables.
4. Connect the red jump cable to the positive (+) terminal of the booster
battery and the other end to the
positive (+) terminal of the dis-
charged battery.
5. Attach the black jump cable to the
negative (-) terminal of the booster
battery, and the other end to a ground
point within the engine compart-
ment of the vehicle with the flat
battery. Do not connect to the nega-
tive battery terminal of the flat bat-
tery since sparks may be generated
with the subsequent risk of explo-
sion.
6. Raise the booster vehicle engine speed to 2,000 r.p.m. and start the
engine of the vehicle with the flat
battery.

IF THE ENGINE OVERHEATS
If the temperature gauge indicates
overheating:
1. Pull off the road and stop as soon as
it is safe to do so.
2. Place the gear selector lever in "P" (automatic), or neutral (manual
transaxle) and set the parking brake.
If the air conditioning is on, turn it off.
3. If coolant is running out under the car
or steam is coming out from under
the bonnet stop the engine. Do not
open the bonnet until the coolant has
stopped running or the steaming has
stopped. If there is no visible loss of
coolant and no steam, leave the
engine running and check to be sure
the engine cooling fan is operating.
If the fan is not running, turn the
engine off.
4. Check to see if the water pump drive belt is missing. If it is not missing,
check to see that it is tight. If the
drive belt seems to be satisfactory,
check for coolant leaking from the
radiator, hoses or under the car. (If
the air conditioning had been in use,
it is normal for cold water to be
draining from it). WARNING:
Whilst the engine is running, keep
hands and clothing away from mov-
ing parts such as the fan and drive
belts to prevent injury.
7. Switch ON the main beam
headlamps before carefully remov-
ing the jumper cables in the reverse
order of attachment. Once the
jumper cables have been removed,
switch "OFF" the main beam
headlamps.
CAUTION:
If the jump cable is incorrectly in-
stalled, damage to the vehicle elec-
trical system may occur, in particu-
lar the electronic components such
as the Fuel Injection system com-
puter and the Automatic transaxle
computer. The battery must never
be disconnected whilst the engine
is running.
!
WARNING (Diesel only):
Never work on injection system with
engine running or within 30 sec-
onds after shutting off engine. High
pressure pump, rail, injectors and
high pressure pipes are subject to
high pressure even after the engine
stopped. The fuel jet produced by
fuel leaks may cause serious in-
jury, if it touch the body. People
using pacemakers should not move
than 30cm closer to the ECU or
wiring harness within the engine
room while engine is running, since
the high currents in the Common
Rail system produce considerable
magnetic fields.

TEMPORARY SPARE TYRE
(Not all models)
The following instructions for the tem-
porary spare tyre should be observed:
1. Check inflation pressure as soon as
practical after installing the spare
tyre, and adjust to the specified
pressure. The tyre pressure should
be periodically checked and main-
tained at the specified pressure
while the tyre is stored.
6. If the cause of the overheating can- not be found, wait until the engine
temperature has returned to nor-
mal. Then, if coolant has been lost,
carefully remove the radiator cap
and add water to bring the fluid level
in the reservoir up to the base of the
radiator fill opening. Fill the coolant
expansion tank to the halfway mark.
7. Proceed with caution until it is es-
tablished that the engine is operat-
ing normally. If the engine over-
heats repeatedly, the advice of a
Hyundai dealer should be sought. WARNING:
