C090H01L-GAT NOTE:
o For smooth and safe operation,
depress the brake pedal when shifting from "Neutral" positionor "Park" position to a forward orreverse gear.
o The ignition key must be in the "ON" position and the brake pedalfully depressed in order to movethe shift lever from the "P" (Park)position to any of the other posi-tions.
o It is always possible to shift from "R", "N", "D" position to "P" po-sition. The vehicle must be fullystopped to avoid transaxle dam-age. C090I01L-GAT
CAUTION:
o Shift into "R" and "P" position only when the vehicle has com-pletely stopped.
o Do not accelerate the engine in reverse or any of the forwardpositions with the brakes applied.
o Always apply the footbrake when
shifting from "P" or "N", to "R" or"D" 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)position and turn off the ignitionwhen you leave the vehicle, evenmomentarily. Never leave the ve- hicle unattended while the en- gine is running.
o Check the automatic transaxle fluid level regularly, and add fluidas necessary.
o See the maintenance schedule for the proper fluid reco-mendation. C090N01Y-AAT Good Driving Practices
o Never move the gear selector lever
from "P" or "N" to any other position with the accelerator pedal de-pressed.
o Never move the gear selector lever into "P" when the vehicle is in mo-tion.
o Be sure the car is completely stopped
before you attempt to shift into "R".
o Never take the car out of gear and
coast down a hill. This may be ex- tremely hazardous. Always leave the car in gear when moving.
o Do not "ride" the brakes. This can cause them to overheat and mal-function. Instead, when you are driv-ing down a long hill, slow down and shift to a lower gear. When you do this, engine braking will help slowthe car.
o Slow down before shifting to a lower gear. Otherwise, the lower gear maynot be engaged.
o Always use the parking brake. Do
not depend on placing the transaxlein "P" to keep the car from moving.

C150A01A-AAT SMOOTH CORNERING Avoid braking or gear changing in cor- ners, especially when roads are wet.Ideally, corners should always be takenunder gentle acceleration. If you followthese suggestions, tire wear will be held to a minimum. C160A01A-AAT WINTER DRIVING The more severe weather conditions of winter result in greater wear andother problems. To minimize the prob-lems of winter driving, you should fol-low these suggestions:
o Keep your car in good condition. For
better fuel economy and reducedmaintenance costs, maintain yourcar in accordance with the mainte-nance schedule in Section 5. If you drive your car in severe conditions, more frequent maintenance is re-quired (see Section 5 for details).
o Keep your car clean. For maximum service, your Hyundai should bekept clean and free of corrosive materials. It is especially important that mud, dirt, ice, etc. not be al-lowed to accumulate on the under-side of the car. This extra weightcan result in increased fuel con-sumption and also contribute to cor- rosion.
o Travel lightly. Don't carry unneces- sary weight in your car. Weight re- duces fuel economy.
o Don't let the engine idle longer than
necessary. If you are waiting (and not in traffic), turn off your engine and restart only when you're readyto go. C160B01A-GAT Snowy or Icy Conditions To drive your vehicle in deep snow, it may be necessary to use snow tires or to install tire chains on your tires. Ifsnow tires are needed, it is necessaryto select tires equivalent in size andtype of the original equipment tires. Failure to do so may adversely affect the safety and handling of your car.Furthermore, speeding, rapid accel-eration, sudden brake applications, andsharp turns are potentially very haz-ardous practices. During deceleration, use engine brak- ing to the fullest extent. Sudden brakeapplications on snowy or icy roadsmay cause skids to occur. You need tokeep sufficient distance between thevehicle in front and your vehicle. Also, apply the brake gently. It should be
o Remember, your Hyundai does not
require extended warm-up. As soon as the engine is running smoothly,you can drive away. In very coldweather, however, give your engine a slightly longer warm-up period.
o Don't "lug" or "over-rev" the engine. Lugging is driving too slowly in too high a gear resulting in the enginebucking. If this happens, shift to alower gear. Over-revving is racing the engine beyond its safe limit. This can be avoided by shifting atthe recommended speeds.
o Use your air conditioning sparingly. The air conditioning system is oper-ated by engine power so your fuel economy is reduced when you use it.

2- 16 DRIVING YOUR HYUNDAI
C160F01A-AAT Check Spark Plugs and Ignition System Inspect your spark plugs as described in Section 6 and replace them if neces-sary. Also check all ignition wiring andcomponents to be sure they are notcracked, worn or damaged in any way. C160G01A-GAT To Keep Locks from Freezing To keep the locks from freezing, squirt an approved de-icer fluid or glycerineinto the key opening. If a lock is cov-ered with ice, squirt it with an approvedde-icing fluid to remove the ice. If the lock is frozen internally, you may be able to thaw it out by using a heatedkey. Handle the heated key with careto avoid burning your fingers. NOTE: The proper temperature for using the immobilizer key is from -40°C to 80°C. If you heat the immobilizerkey over 80°C to open the frozenlock, it may cause damage to thetransponder in its head.
C160C01A-AAT Use High Quality Ethylene Glycol Coolant Your Hyundai is delivered with high quality ethylene glycol coolant in thecooling system. It is the only type of coolant that should be used because it helps prevent corrosion in the coolingsystem, lubricates the water pump andprevents freezing. Be sure to replaceor replenish your coolant in accor-dance with the maintenance schedule in Section 5. Before winter, have your coolant tested to assure that its freez-ing point is sufficient for the tempera-tures anticipated during the winter. C160D01A-AAT Check Battery and Cables Winter puts additional burdens on the battery system. Visually inspect thebattery and cables as described inSection 6. The level of charge in yourbattery can be checked by your Hyun- dai dealer or a service station.
C160E01A-AATChange to "Winter Weight" Oil if Necessary In some climates it is recommended that a lower viscosity "winter weight"oil be used during cold weather. See Section 9 for recommendations. If you aren't sure what weight oil you shoulduse, consult your Hyundai dealer.
noted that installing tire chains on thetire will provide a greater driving force,but will not prevent side skids. NOTE: Tire chains are not legal in all prov- inces. Check province laws before fitting tire chains.

o Vacuum, Crankcase Ventila-
tion Hoses
Inspect the surface of hoses for evi-
dence of heat and/or mechanical dam-age. Hard and brittle rubber, crack-ing, tears, cuts, abrasions, and ex- cessive swelling indicate deteriora- tion. Particular attention should bepaid to examine those hose surfacesnearest to high heat sources, such asthe exhaust manifold. Inspect the hose routing to assure
that the hoses do not come in contactwith any heat source, sharp edges ormoving component which might cause heat damage or mechanical wear. Inspect all hose connections, such asclamps and couplings, to make surethey are secure, and that no leaks arepresent. Hoses should be replacedimmediately if there is any evidence of deterioration or damage.

G040A02A-AAT
CHANGING THE OIL AND FIL- TER The procedure for changing the oil and filter is as follows:
1. Park the car on level ground and
set the parking brake. Start the engine and let it warm up until theneedle on the coolant temperature gauge moves above the lowest mark. Turn the engine off and placethe gear selector lever in "P" (auto- matic) or reverse gear (manual transaxle). Set the parking brake.
2. Open the hood and remove the engine oil filler cap.
3. Slide underneath the car and loosen the drain plug by turning it counter-clockwise with a wrench of theproper size. Be sure that a drain pan is in position to catch the oil as it drains out, then remove the drainplug.
WARNING:
Be very careful when draining theengine oil as it may be hot enoughto burn you!
The engine oil and filter should be
changed at those intervals specified in the maintenance schedule in Sec- tion 5. If the car is being driven insevere conditions, more frequent oil and filter changes are required. G040A01L

ENGINE OIL CONSUMPTION Function of Engine Oil
Engine oil has the primary function of lubricating and cooling the inside ofthe engine.
Engine oil consumption It is normal that an engine shouldconsume some engine oil while nor-
mal driving. The cause of oil con- sumption in a normal engine are as follows;
o Engine oil is used to lubricate pis- tons, piston rings and cylinders.A thin film of oil is left on thecylinder wall when a piston moves downwards in the cylinder. High negative pressure generated dur-ing engine operation sucks some of the oil into the combustion cham- ber. This oil with some oil of the cylin- der wall is burned by the high tem- perature combustion gases duringthe combustion process.
o The engine oil consumption is
strongly effected by the viscosity and quality of oil, engine rpm and driving condition etc. The engine
oil is more consumed under severe driving conditions such as highspeeds and frequent acceleration and deceleration than normal driv- ing condition.
