4. Average Fuel Consumption
o This mode indicates the average fuel
consumption since the data reset.
o It displays per 10 seconds after you
drive over 0.03 miles and 10 sec- onds.
o Calculation Method SB220A1-E 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 instrumentcluster 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, thesignal may need to be cancelled manu- ally. If either turn signal indicator flashes more rapidly than normal or refuses toflash 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 willcause the turn signal lights to flash. When the lever is released, it will return to the "off" position.

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.

C090H01A-EAT NOTE:
o The brake pedal should be de-
pressed when shifting from NEU- TRAL to a forward or reversegear.
o The brake pedal fully depressed
in order to move the shift lever from the "P" (Park) position to any of the other positions.
o It is always possible to shift from "R", "N", "D", "2", "L" position.
!
C090I02A-EAT
CAUTION:
o Shift into "R" and "P" only when the vehicle has completely stopped.
o Do not accelerate the engine in reverse or any of the forward positions with the brakes applied.
o Always apply the footbrake when shifting from "P" or "N", to "R", "D", "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)and turn off the ignition when you leave the vehicle, even mo- mentarily. Never leave the vehicleunattended whilst the engine isrunning.
o Check the automatic transaxle fluid level regularly, and add fluid as necessary. See the maintenance schedulefor the proper fluid recommen-dation. FC120D1-E General Operating Instructions
o The button in the selector handle
must be depressed before the se- lector can be moved.
o The engine may only be started
when the selector is at position "P" or "N".
o Ensure that the footbrake is firmly applied when shifting from "P" or "N" to "D", "2", "L" or "R" and viceversa.
o Always engage the parking brake when the vehicle is unattended,never use the "P" position in place ofthe parking brake.
o Under normal circumstances, the selector should be placed in the "D"position and the transaxle allowed to select the most ideal ratio for the circumstances. In this position maxi-mum fuel economy will be achieved.
o When descending steep gradients where engine braking is required,the selector should be placed at the "2" or "L" position depending upon the vehicle speed.

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.

SC140B1-E ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM (Not all models) The Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) is designed to prevent wheel lock-upduring sudden braking or on hazard-ous road surfaces. The ABS controlmodule monitors the wheel speed and controls the pressure applied to each brake. Thus, in emergency situationsor on slick roads, ABS will increasevehicle control during braking. NOTE: During ABS operation, a slight pul- sation may be felt in the brake pedal when the brakes are applied. Also, a noise may be heard in the enginecompartment whilst braking. Theseconditions are normal and indicatethat the anti-lock brake system isfunctioning properly.
located in the instrument cluster will beilluminated. When the overdrive switchis turned "ON", the transaxle functionsas a fully automatic four speed unitwith the maximum fuel economy po- tential of the vehicle being realized. SC140A1-E EFFECTIVE BRAKING Braking system performance and fric- tion material life are greatly affected by the driving style adopted. The follow-ing suggestions are made to assist inachieving the best results from thebraking system.
o Anticipate the road and conditions
ahead in order that heavy braking may be avoided.
o When descending long gradients,
use the engine to assist in retardingthe vehicle to minimize the possibil- ity of brake fade occurring.
o When trailer towing, ensure that the
trailer brakes function correctly and use engine braking to assist thevehicle braking system. o Use only genuine Hyundai replace-
ment brake pads and shoes to en-sure consistent friction characteris-tics and wear rates.
o After driving through deep water (e.g. fording), the brakes may be-come wet and performance reduced.Always check brake efficiency afteremerging from the water and dry thebrakes by lightly depressing thebrake pedal several times whilst driving slowly.
o Apply the parking brake only when the vehicle is at rest.
o Since the power assistance pro- vided by the brake servo is derived from the engine, coasting with the engine turned off or towing of the vehicle with the engine turned offwill result in greatly increased pedalpressures being required to stop thevehicle.
o Do not hold the vehicle on the up- grade with the accelerator pedal.This can cause the transmission tooverheat. Always use the brakepedal or parking brake.
