WARNING:
To minimize risk of severe injury in the event of a collision or a suddenstop, both the driver and passen- ger seatbacks should always be in an upright position while the ve-hicle is in motion. The protection provided by the seat belts and airbags may be reduced significant-ly when the seatbacks are reclined. There is greater risk that the driver and passenger will slide under theseat belt which may result in seri- ous injury if a crash occurs when the seatbacks are reclined. The seatbelt cannot provide full protection to an occupant if the seat back is reclined.!WARNING:
To ensure the seat is locked se- curely, attempt to move the seat for- ward or rearward without using thelock release lever.!
To recline the seatback, lean forward to take your weight off it, then pull up onthe recliner control lever at the outside edge of the seat. Now lean back until the desired seatback angle is achieved.To lock the seatback into position, release the recliner control lever.

!WARNING:
o The driver is responsible for the proper position of the passenger's front airbag ON/OFF switch.
o Deactivate the front passenger's airbag only when the ignition switchis switched off, or the malfunction may occur in the SRSCM (SRSControl Module). And there may be a danger that the driver's and/or passenger's front and/or side airbagmay fail to trigger, or not trigger correctly during a collision.
o Never install a rearward facing child seat on the front passenger'sseat. The infant or child could be severely injured or killed by anairbag deployment in case of an accident.
o Even though your vehicle isequipped with the passenger's airbag ON/OFF switch, do not in- stall a child restraint system in thefront passenger's seat. A child re- straint system must never be placed in the front seat. Childrenwho are too large for child re- straint systems should always occupy the rear seat and use theavailable lap/shoulder belts. Children are afforded the most safety in the event of an accidentwhen they are restrained by a proper restraint system in the rear seat.
o As soon as deactivation is no longer needed, reactivate the frontpassenger's airbag. B990B01TG-GAT Side Impact Airbag (If Installed) Your Hyundai is equipped with a side airbag in each front seat. The purpose of the airbag is to provide the vehicle's driver and/or the front passenger withadditional protection than that offered by the seatbelt alone. The side impact airbags are designed to deploy onlyduring certain side impact collisions, depending on the crash severity, angle, speed and point of impact. The airbags are not designed to deploy in all side impact situations.

o If the SRS airbag warning light
does not illuminate when the igni- tion key is turned to the "ON" position, or if it illuminates while the vehicle is being driven, havean authorized Hyundai dealer in- spect the passenger's front airbag ON/OFF switch, pre-tensioner seatbelt and the SRS airbag system as soon as possible.

ating or shifting gears. On a slippery surface, an abrupt change in ve- hicle speed can cause the drivewheels to lose traction and the ve- hicle to go out of control.
!
C070D02O-AAT Good Driving Practices
o Never take the car out of gear and
coast down a hill. This is extremely hazardous. Always leave the car in gear.
o Don't "ride" the brakes. This can
cause them to overheat and mal-function. Instead, when you are driv- ing down a long hill, slow down andshift to a lower gear. When you do this, engine braking will help slow the car.
o Slow down before shifting to a lower gear. This will help avoid over-rev-ving the engine, which can causedamage.
o Slow down when you encounter
cross winds. This gives you muchbetter control of your car.
o Be sure the car is completely stopped
before you attempt to shift into re-verse. The transaxle can be dam- aged if you do not. To shift into reverse, depress the clutch, movethe shift lever to neutral, wait three seconds, then shift to the reverse position.
o Exercise extreme caution when driv- ing on a slippery surface. Be espe-cially careful when braking, acceler-

Shift
from-to Recommended
20 km/h (15 mph) 40 km/h (25 mph) 55 km/h (35 mph)75 km/h (45 mph)
The shift points as shown above are recommended for optimum fueleconomy and performance. WARNING:
o Avoid high cornering speeds.
o Do not make quick steering wheel movements, such as sharp lanechanges or fast, sharp turns.
o Always wear your seat belts. In a collision crash, an unbeltedperson is significantly more likely to die than a person wearing a seatbelt.
o The risk of rollover is greatly in- creased if you lose control ofyour vehicle at highway speeds.
o Loss of control often occurs if two or more wheels drop off theroadway and the driver oversteersto reenter the roadway.
o In the event your vehicle leaves
the roadway, do not steer sharply.Instead, slow down before pull- ing back into the travel lanes.
o Never exceed posted speed lim- its.
C070B01A-AAT Using the Clutch The clutch should be pressed all the way to the floor before shifting, thenreleased slowly. The clutch pedal should always be used after fully re- turning to the original position. Do notrest your foot on the clutch pedal while driving. This can cause unnecessary wear. Do not partially engage the clutchto hold the car on an incline. This causes unnecessary wear. Use the parking brake to hold the car on anincline. Do not operate the clutch pedal rapidly and repeatedly.

C130A01A-AAT GOOD BRAKING PRACTICES
WARNING:
Nothing should be carried on top of the shelf panel behind the rear seat. If there were an accident or a sud- den stop, such objects could moveforward and cause damage to the vehicle or injure the occupants.
o After being parked, check to be sure the parking brake is not engaged and that the parking brake indicatorlight is out before driving away.
o Driving through water may get the
brakes wet. They can also get wet
when the car is washed. Wet brakes can be dangerous! Your car will not
stop as quickly if the brakes are wet.Wet brakes may cause the car to pull to one side. To dry the brakes, apply the brakes lightly until the brak-

When the overdrive switch is turned on, the transaxle will automatically upshift to the second, third and overdrive gears. When the overdrive switch is turned off,the transaxle will not upshift to the over- drive gear. For normal driving, the selec- tor lever should be left in the "D" positionand the overdrive switch turned on.

o Never exceed posted speed limits.
o If your vehicle becomes stuck in snow, mud, sand, etc., then youmay attempt to rock the vehiclefree by moving it forward and back- ward. Do not attempt this proce- dure if people or objects are any- where near the vehicle. During the rocking operation the vehicle may suddenly move for-ward of backward as it becomes unstuck, causing injury or dam- age to nearby people or objects.
If you need to accelerate rapidly, press the accelerator pedal all the way to the floor. The transaxle will automaticallyshift to a lower gear, depending on the vehicle speed and load.
