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 registra-
tion and insurance.
o Determine that acceptable fuel is available.B010E01A-AATGasolines for Cleaner AirTo help contribute to cleaner air, Hyundai rec-
ommends that you use gasolines treated with
detergent additives, which help prevent deposit
formation in the engine. These gasolines will
help the engine run cleaner and enhance per-
formance 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 contrib-
ute to the economical operation and durability of
your Hyundai by observing the following recom-
mendations during 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) between 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.
B030A01NF-GATFor greater convenience, your Hyundai has
two master keys and a sub key. The master
keys will open all locks on your vehicle. The sub
key will only function in the ignition and the door
locks.
Leaving your sub key with a parking attendant
will ensure that your vehicle's trunk, trunk lid
release, glove box compartment and rear trunk
access may not be unlocked in your absence.NOTE:Before leaving your sub key with a parking
attendant, make sure that the lock knobs of
the rear seatback lock and the trunk lid lock
are switched to the "LOCK" position.

ILLUMINATED IGNITION SWITCHWhenever either front door is opened, the igni-
tion switch will be illuminated for your conve-
nience, provided the ignition switch is not in the
"ON" position.
The light will go off approximately 10 seconds
after closing the door or when the ignition switch
is turned on.
WARNING:
o Unlocked doors can be dangerous. Be-
fore you drive away (especially if there
are children in the car), be sure that all the
doors are securely closed and locked so
that the doors cannot be opened from
the inside. This helps ensure that the
doors will not be opened accidentally.
Also, when combined with the proper
use of seat belts, locking the doors helps
keep occupants from being ejected from
the car in case of an accident.
o Before opening the door, always look for
and avoid oncoming traffic.
B030B01NF-GATRecord Your Key NumberA code number is attached on the number tag
that came with the keys to your Hyundai. This
key number tag should not be left with the keys
but kept in a safe place, not in the vehicle. The
key number should also be recorded in a place
where it can be found in an emergency.
If you need additional keys, or if you should lose
your keys, your authorized Hyundai dealer can
make new keys if you can supply the key
number.

WARNING:
o Passengers can be injured if their head,
hands or other body parts are trapped by
a closing window. Always check for
obstructions before raising any window.
o NEVER leave the ignition key in the ve-
hicle.
o NEVER leave any child unattended in the
vehicle. Even very young children may
inadvertently cause the vehicle to move,
entangle themselves in the windows, or
otherwise injure themselves or others.
o Do not attempt to operate the main switch
on the driver's door and a switch on
another door in opposing directions at
the same time. If this is done, the window
will stop and cannot be opened or closed.
WARNING:
o The automatic reverse feature for the
driver’s window is only active when the
“auto up” feature is used by fully pulling
up the switch. The automatic reverse
feature will not operate if the window is
raised using the halfway position on the
power window switch.
o Always check for obstructions before
raising any window to avoid injuries or
vehicle damage. If an object less than
0.16 in. (4 mm) in diameter is caught
between the window glass and the up-
per window channel, the automatic re-
verse window may not detect the resis-
tance and will not stop and reverse direc-
tion.B060C02NF-AATAutomatic Reverse Window
(Driver's side)If the upward movement of the window is blocked
by an object or part of the body, the window will
detect the resistance and will stop upward
movement. The window will then lower approxi-
mately 11.8 in.(30cm) to allow the object to be
cleared.
NOTE:The power windows can be operated for 30
seconds after the ignition key is turned to
the "ACC" or "LOCK" positions, or removed

WARNING:
Riding with a reclined seatback increases
your chance of serious or fatal injuries in
the event of a collision or sudden stop. The
protection of your restraint system (seat
belts and airbags) is greatly reduced by
reclining your seat. Seat belts must be snug
against your hips and chest to work prop-
erly. The more the seatback is reclined, the
greater the chance that an occupant's hips
will slide under the lap belt or the occupant's
neck will strike the shoulder belt. Drivers
and passengers should always sit well back
in their seats, properly belted, and with the
seatbacks upright.
!
B100A01NF-AATSEAT WARMER (If Installed)The seat warmer is provided to warm the front
seats during cold weather. With the ignition key
in the "ON" position, push either of the switches
to warm the driver's seat or the front passenger's
seat.
During mild weather or under conditions where
the operation of the seat warmer is not needed,
keep the switches in the "OFF" position.NOTE:o The seat warmer may not operate if the
ambient temperature is warm.
o If the seat warmer doesn't operate when
the ambient temperature is lower than
75.2°F (24°C), it must be checked at an
authorized dealer.
B100A01NF
WARNING:
Do not turn on the seat warmers, if the seat
is occupied by someone who cannot moni-
tor the temperature and turn off the seat
warmer, if it becomes too warm. The seat
warmers should not be turned on when
children, the elderly, ill people, and sleep-
ing people occupy the seat.
