DRIVING YOUR HYUNDAI
2- 8 o Always engage the parking brake when
the vehicle is unattended, never use the "P" position in place of the parking brake.
o Under normal circumstances, the selector
should be placed in the "D" position andthe transaxle allowed to select the most ideal ratio for the circumstances. In this position maximum 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.
o When ascending steep gradients using large throttle openings, the transaxle mayre-peatedly change between two adjacent ratios. This is a normal characteristic and may be prevented by cancelling the over- drive facility if the shifting occurs between third and fourth ratios, selecting position "2" if the shifting occurs between third and second ratios 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 accelerator de-pressed.
o Ensure that the overdrive switch is at the "ON" position for maximum economy. o If rapid acceleration is required, fully de-
press the accelerator pedal. In this condi- tion, the kickdown mechanism will be oper- ated and the transaxle will automatically downshift according to the vehicle speed.
o The automatic transaxle may be used to
great effect if the vehicle becomes stuck insnow or mud by allowing the vehicle to be rocked to and fro. The engine speed should be held at approximately 1,000rpm by means of the accelerator pedal and the selector lever moved between the "D" and "R" positions to induce a rocking motion.
o Do not depress the accelerator pedal with
the brakes applied and the selector at the "R", "D", "2" or "L" position.
o Turn the overdrive switch on for good fuel economy and smooth driving. But if enginebraking is needed in the "D" range or if repeated upshifting and downshifting be- tween the 3rd and 4th gear is needed when climbing a gentle slope, it is recom- mended that the overdrive switch be turned off. Turn the overdrive switch back on immediately afterward.
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 shift- ing from "P" or "N", to "R", "D", "2" or"L" position.
o Do not use the "P" (Park) position in place of the parking brake. Always setthe parking brake, shift the transaxle into "P" (Park) and turn off the ignition when you leave the vehicle, even mo- mentarily. Never leave the vehicle unat- tended whilst the engine is running.
o Check the automatic transaxle fluid level regularly, and add fluid as necessary.See the maintenance schedule for theproper fluid recommendation.

General Operating Instructions
o The button in the selector handle must be depressed before the selector 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 vice versa.
