C050B03S-EAT NORMAL CONDITIONS The Starting Procedure:
1. Insert key, and fasten the seat belt.
2. Depress the clutch pedal fully and
place the gearshift lever (manualtransaxle) in neutral or the selectorlever (automatic transaxle) in "P" (park) position. NOTE: If the engine does not start 10 sec- onds after the preheating is complet- ed, turn the ignition key once moreto the "LOCK" position, and then to the "ON" position, in order to pre- heat again.
WARNING:
Be sure that the clutch is fully de- pressed when starting a manual transaxle vehicle. This will prevent sudden movement should the ve- hicle be started in gear without theclutch depressed. Otherwise there is the potential to cause damage to the vehicle or injury to a person insideor outside of the vehicle as a result of this sudden vehicle movement.

CAUTION:
When the TCS indicator blinks, SLIP control has been activated. It also means that the road is slippery or your car is accelerating excessively. In this situation, release foot pres- sure from the accelerator pedal and maintain moderate speed.!
WARNING:
Traction control is only a driving aid; all normal precautions for driving in inclement weather and on slipperydriving surfaces should be observed. C300B01O-GAT TCS ON Mode In the TCS ON mode, the indicator in the instrument cluster will not be illumi-nated. NOTE:
1) Turn off the engine. Then restart
the engine, and the TCS mode will automatically turn "ON".
2) When the traction control is oper-
ating properly, you can feel a slightpulsation in the vehicle. This is only the effect of brake control and indicates nothing unusual.
3) When the engine starts, a click is heard from the engine compart-ment; however, this is only thesound of traction control being checked.
4) When moving out of the mud or fresh snow, pressing the accelera-tor pedal may not cause the en- gine speed to increase. C300D02O-GAT Indicator and Warning The indicator should illuminate when
the ignition key is turned to "ON" or "START",but should go out after three seconds. If the indicator does not illuminate, have it checked by an Hyundai authorisedrepairer. Should there be any unusual conditions in the device, TCS illuminates as a warning. If TCS illuminates, pull your car to asafe place and stop the engine. Then, start the engine again to check if the TCS indicator goes out.If the indicator remains lit even after the engine has been started, have your car checked by an Hyundai authorised re-pairer.

Then, start the engine again to check if the ESP-OFF indicator goes out. If the indicator remains lit even after the engine has been started, have your carchecked by Hyundai authorised repairer.EFFECTIVE BRAKING
SC140A2-E Braking system performance and fric- tion material life are greatly affected by the driving style adopted. The following suggestions are made to assist inachieving the best results from the braking 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 retarding thevehicle to minimize the possibility of brake fade occurring.
o When trailer towing, ensure that the trailer brakes function correctly anduse 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 become wetand performance reduced. Always check brake efficiency after emerg-ing from the water and dry the brakes by lightly depressing the brake pedal several times whilst driving slowly. o Apply the parking brake only when
the vehicle is at rest.
o Since the power assistance provided by the brake servo is derived fromthe engine, coasting with the engineturned off or towing of the vehicle with the engine turned off will result in greatly increased pedal pressuresbeing required to stop the vehicle.
o Do not hold the vehicle on the up-
grade with the accelerator pedal. Thiscan cause the transmission to over- heat. Always use the brake pedal or parking brake.
o Use caution when parking on a hill. Engage the parking brake and placethe gear selector lever in "P" (auto-matic transaxle) or in first or reverse gear (manual transaxle). If your car is facing downhill, turn the frontwheels into the curb to help keep the car from rolling. If your car is facing uphill, turn the front wheels awayfrom the curb to help keep the car from rolling. If there is no curb or if it is required by other conditions tokeep the car from rolling, block the wheels.

2IF THE ENGINE WILL NOT START
SD020B1-E If the Engine Cannot be Cranked
1. If the vehicle is fitted with manualtransaxle, 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 con-
nections to ensure that these areclean and also tight.
3. If the ignition warning lights dim when
the engine is cranked and the batteryterminals have been checked, a dis- charged battery is indicated.
4. Do not attempt to push or tow start
the vehicle, refer to "Jump Starting"for information regarding engine start- ing when the battery is discharged. D010C02A-EAT If Engine Turns Over Normally but Does Not Start
D010B01FC 1. Check fuel level.
2. With the key in the "OFF" position,check all connectors at ignition coilsand spark plugs(For Petrol Engine)or check all connectors at glow plug and glow plug relay(For Diesel En- gine). Reconnect any that may bedisconnected or loose.
3. Check fuel line in the engine com-
partment.
4. If engine still refuses to start, call a Hyundai authorised repairer or seekother qualified assistance. SSA3020C
!
SD020A1-E Seek assistance from the nearest Hyundai authorised repairer with regardto the method of ignition and fuel sys- tem diagnosis.
CAUTION:
If the engine refuses to start, noattempt should be made to push or tow start the vehicle. Vehicles withautomatic transaxle or fuel injection will not be able to be started in this manner since no drive is transmittedthrough the automatic transaxle whilst the engine is not running, and in the case of fuel injected deriva-tives, the fuel pump will not operate under tow start conditions. In addi- tion, if the vehicle is equipped withan exhaust catalyst, damage to the catalyst may result if the vehicle is tow started.

The power steering fluid level should
be checked daily. SG230B1-E
POWER STEERING HOSES
Power steering hoses should be
checked for damage, deterioration and leakage at each service. To check the power steering fluid level,
be sure the ignition is "OFF", thencheck to make certain that the power steering fluid level is between the "MAX" and "MIN" level markings onthe fluid reservoir.
NOTE: Grinding noise from power steering
pump may be heard immediately after the engine is started in ex-tremely cold condition (below -4°F). If the noise stops dur- ing warm up, there is no abnormalfunction in the system. This is due to a power steering fluid character- istic in extremely cold conditions. FLUID RECOMMENDATION
Only automatic transmission fluid
meeting the specification of PSF-3 or Dexron 2 should be used in the power steering system.
