BREAKING IN YOUR NEW
HYUNDAI
B010F01A-AATOperation in Foreign CountriesIf you are going to drive your Hyundai in
another country, be sure to:
o Observe all regulations regarding reg-
istration and insurance.
o Determine that acceptable fuel is avail-
able.B010E01A-AATGasolines for Cleaner AirTo help contribute to cleaner air, Hyundai
recommends that you use gasolines
treated with detergent additives, which
help prevent deposit formation in the en-
gine. These gasolines will help the engine
run cleaner and enhance performance of
the Emission Control System.
B020A01S-AATDuring the First 1,200 Miles (2,000
Km)No formal "break-in" procedure is required
with your new Hyundai. However, you can
contribute to the economical operation
and durability of your Hyundai by observ-
ing the following recommendations dur-
ing the first 1,200 miles (2,000 km).
o Don't drive faster than 55 MPH (88 km/
h).
o While driving, keep your engine speed
(rpm, or revolutions per minute) be-
tween 2,000 rpm and 4,000 rpm.
o Use moderate acceleration. Don't start
quickly or depress the accelerator pedal
fully.
o For the first 200 miles (300 km), try to
avoid hard stops.
o Don't lug the engine (in other words,
don't drive so slowly in too high a gear
that the engine "bucks"-shift to a lower
gear).
o Whether going fast or slow, vary your
speed from time to time.
o Don't let the engine idle longer than 3
minutes at one time.
o Don't tow a trailer during the first 1,200
miles (2,000 km) of operation.
KEYSB030A01A-AATFor greater convenience, the same key
operates all the locks in your Hyundai.
However, because the doors can be locked
without a key, carrying a spare key is
recommended in case you accidentally
lock one key inside the car.

NOTE:You can get a limp home password when
the vehicle is first delivered to you. If you
do not have a password, consult your
authorized Hyundai dealer.
1. To activate the password, turn the igni-
tion key "ON" and "OFF" according to
the digit numbers. The immobilizer indi-
cator will blink along with the operation
of the ignition key. For example, turn the
ignition key once for digit number "1",
and twice for "2", and so on. For the digit
number "0", you must cycle the ignition
key 10 times.
2. Wait for 3~10 seconds.
3. You may set the remaining number of
digits by following steps 1 and 2.
4. If all of the four password digits have
been successfully entered, turn the ig-
nition key "ON" and check that the im-
mobilizer indicator illuminates. From
this time, you have to start your engine
within 30 seconds. If you try to start your
engine after 30 seconds, your engine
will not start.
NOTE:If the engine stalls while driving in the
"limp home" mode, you can start your
engine within 2.5 seconds without re-
entering the password.
If the immobilizer indicator blinks for five
seconds, you must re-enter the password
(steps 1~4).
After performing the limp home activation
procedure, consult with your authorized
Hyundai dealer as soon as possible.

WARNING:
o If the retractor is not in the Automatic
Locking mode, the child restraint can
move when your vehicle turns or stops
suddenly. A child can be seriously
injured or killed if the child restraint is
not properly anchored to the car, in-
cluding setting the retractor to the
Automatic Locking mode.
o Do not install any child restraint sys-
tem in the front passenger seat.
Should an accident occur and cause
the passenger side air bag to deploy,
it could severely injure or kill an infant
or child seated in an infant or child
seat. Therefore, only use a child re-
straint system in the rear seat of your
vehicle.
o Before installing Child Restraint Sys-
tems, refer to safety notices for Cur-
tain Air Bag systems beginning on
page 1-58 this manual. Whenever in-
stalling child restraints, use only ap-
proved devices and refer to the "Child
Restraint System" section to ensure
correct installation and occupant pro-
tection is maximized. Also, double check to be sure that the
retractor has engaged the Automatic Lock-
ing feature by trying to extend webbing out
of the retractor. If the retractor is in the
Automatic Locking mode, the belt will be
locked. After installation of the child re-
straint system, try to move it in all directions
to be sure the child restraint system is se-
curely installed. If you need to tighten the
belt, pull more webbing toward the retrac-
tor. When you unbuckle the seat belt and
allow it to retract, the retractor will automati-
cally revert back to its normal seated pas-
senger Emergency Locking usage condi-
tion.
NOTE:o Before installing the child restraint
system in any seating position, read
the instructions supplied by the child
restraint system manufacturer.
o If the seat belt does not operate as
described, have the system checked
immediately by your authorized
Hyundai dealer.
B230G01CM-AATChild Restraint System Installation
on Outboard Rear SeatsTo install a child restraint system in the
outboard rear seats, extend the shoulder/
lap belt entirely from its retractor until a
"click" is felt. This will engage the seat belt
retractor automatic locking feature, which
allows the seat belt to retract but not ex-
tend. Install the child restraint system,
buckle the seat belt and allow the seat belt
to take up any slack. Make sure that the lap
portion of the belt is tight around the child
restraint system and the shoulder portion
of the belt is positioned so that it can not
interfere with the child's head or neck.

o For cleaning the air bag pad covers,
use only a soft, dry cloth or one which
has been moistened with plain water.
Solvents or cleaners could adversely
affect the air bag covers and proper
deployment of the system.
o No objects should be placed over or
near the air bag modules on the steer-
ing wheel, instrument panel, and the
front passenger's panel above the
glove box, because any such object
could cause harm if the vehicle is in a
crash severe enough to cause the air
bags to inflate.
o If the air bags inflate, they must be
replaced by an authorized Hyundai
dealer.
o Do not tamper with or disconnect SRS
wiring, or other components of the
SRS system. Doing so could result in
injury, due to accidental inflation of
the air bags or by rendering the SRS
inoperative.

WARNING:
o Do not install a child restraint system
in the front passenger seat position.
A child restraint system must never
be placed in the front seat. The infant
or child could be severely injured or
killed by an air bag deployment in
case of an accident.
o Modification to SRS components or
wiring, including the addition of any
kind of badges to the pad covers or
modifications to the body structure,
can adversely affect SRS perfor-
mance and lead to possible injury.
1JBH3051L
!
o If components of the air bag system
must be discarded, or if the vehicle
must be scrapped, certain safety pre-
cautions must be observed. Your
Hyundai dealer knows these precau-
tions and can give you the necessary
information. Failure to follow these
precautions and procedures could
increase the risk of personal injury.
o If your car was flooded and has soaked
carpeting or water on the floor, don't
try to start the engine; have the car
towed to an authorized Hyundai dealer.
o Do not replace bumper or the bumper
guard with the one other than Hyundai
genuine parts. Otherwise, it can ad-
versely affect SRS performance and
lead to an increased risk of injury.

Parking Brake/Low Brake
Fluid Level Warning Light
The brake fluid level warning light indi-
cates that the brake fluid level in the brake
master cylinder is low and hydraulic brake
fluid conforming to DOT 3 or DOT 4 speci-
fications should be added. After adding
fluid, if no other trouble is found, the car
should be immediately and carefully driven
to a Hyundai dealer for inspection. If further
trouble is experienced, the vehicle should
not be driven at all but taken to a dealer by
a professional towing service.
Your Hyundai is equipped with dual-di-
agonal braking systems. This means you
still have braking on two wheels even if
one of the dual systems should malfunc-
tion. With only one of the dual systems
working, more than normal pedal travel
and greater pedal pressure are required to
stop the car. Also, the car will not stop in as
short a distance with only half of the brake
system working. If the brakes malfunction
while you are driving, shift to a lower gear
for additional engine braking and stop the
car as soon as it is safe to do so.
WARNING:
If you suspect brake trouble, have your
brakes checked by a Hyundai dealer as
soon as possible. Driving your car with
a problem in either the brake electrical
system or brake hydraulic system is
dangerous, and could result in a serious
injury or death.Warning Light OperationThe parking brake/brake fluid level warn-
ing light should illuminate when the park-
ing brake is applied and the ignition switch
is turned to "ON" or "START". After the
engine is started, the light should go out
when the parking brake is released.
If the parking brake is not applied, the
warning light should illuminate when the
ignition switch is turned to "ON" or "START",
then go out when the engine starts. If the
light illuminate at any other time, you
should slow the vehicle and bring it to a
complete stop in a safe location off the
roadway.

while you are driving, have the system
checked by your Hyundai dealer as soon
as possible.Parking brake warning chime
