MULTI FUNCTION SWITCH
Turn Signal Operation
To signal an intention to turn right, the
switch lever should be pressed down.
To signal an intention to turn left, the
switch lever should be pushed upwards.
In both instances, the turn signal lights
on one side of the car will flash and the
warning light located in the instrument
cluster will flash in sympathy. Upon
completion of the manoeuvre, the lever
will, under normal circumstances, re-
turn to the "Off" position. However, if
the manoeuvre involved only a small
movement of the steering wheel, the
signal may need to be cancelled manu-
ally. If either turn signal indicator flashes
more rapidly than normal or refuses to
flash at all, a malfunction of the turn
signal system may exist. SB220B1-E
Lane Change Signal
To indicate an intention to change lanes,
moving the lever slightly towards the
direction of the relevant turn signal will
cause the turn signal lights to flash.
When the lever is released, it will return
to the "off" position.
HTB018-D
NOTE:
The average fuel consumption is
calculated by the US gallon.
A US gallon is equal to 3.875
litres. And an imperial gallon,
used in Britain, is equal to 4.546
litres.

2- 14 DRIVING YOUR HYUNDAI
!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.

3- 2 WHAT TO DO IN AN EMERGENCY
HTB165
SD020B1-E
IF THE ENGINE CANNOT BE
CRANKED
1. If the vehicle is fitted with manual
transaxle, ensure that the clutch
pedal is depressed whilst cranking
the engine. If the vehicle is fitted
with automatic transaxle, ensure
that the transaxle selector is at the
"P" or"N" position.
2. Check the battery terminals and
connections to ensure that these
are clean and also tight.
3. If the ignition warning lights dim
when the engine is cranked and the
battery terminals have been
checked, a discharged battery is
indicated. SD020C1-F
If Engine Turns Over Normally
but Does Not Start
SD020A1-E
IF THE ENGINE WILL NOT START
Seek assistance from the nearest
Hyundai dealer with regard to the
method of ignition and fuel system
diagnosis.
!
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.

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.

BATTERY MAINTENANCE
WARNING:
Motor vehicle batteries contain
sulphuric acid which is corrosive
and poisonous. Hydrogen gas is
emitted from the battery which is
explosive when combined with oxy-
gen. The following precautions must
be strictly observed to avoid per-
sonal injury or damage to the ve-
hicle.

ELECTRIC COOLING FANS
WARNING:
The cooling fan is controlled by en-
gine coolant temperature and may
sometimes operate even when the
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 tem-
perature decreases, the fan will auto-
matically shut off. This is a normal
condition.
The engine cooling fan should operate
before the temperature gauge reaches
the upper portion of the scale and the
condenser fan should operate when-
ever the air conditioning is in use.
