CAUTION:When installing a container of liquid air freshener inside a vehicle, do not place it near the instrument cluster nor
on the instrument panel pad surface. If there is any leakage from the air freshener onto these areas (Instrument
cluster, instrument panel pad or air ventilator), it may damage these parts. If the liquid from the air freshener does
leak onto these areas, wash them with water immediately.

The airbag modules are located both in the
center of the steering wheel and in the front
passenger's panel above the glove box.
When the SRSCM detects a considerable im-
pact to the front of the vehicle, it will automatically
deploy the airbags.
Upon deployment, tear seams molded directly
into the pad covers will separate under pres-
sure from the expansion of the airbags. Further
opening of the covers then allows full inflation of
the airbags.
A fully inflated airbag in combination with a
properly worn seat belt slows the driver's or the
passenger's forward motion, thus reducing the
risk of head or chest injury.
After complete inflation, the airbag immediately
starts deflating, enabling the driver to maintain
forward visibility.
CAUTION:When installing the container of liquid air
freshener inside a vehicle, do not place it
near the instrument cluster nor on the in-
strument panel pad surface. If there is any
leakage from the air freshener onto these
areas (Instrument cluster, instrument panel
pad or air ventilator), it may damage these
parts. If the liquid from the air freshener
does leak onto these areas, wash them with
water immediately.
WARNING:o When the SRS is activated, there may be
a loud noise and fine dust will be re-
leased throughout the vehicle. These
conditions are normal and are not haz-
ardous. However, the fine dust gener-
ated during airbag deployment may
cause skin irritation. Be sure to wash
your hands and face thoroughly with
lukewarm water and a mild soap after an
accident in which the airbags were de-
ployed.
o The SRS can function only when the
ignition key is in the "ON" position. If the
SRS SRI does not come on, or continu-
ously remains on, after flashing for about
6 seconds when the ignition key is
turned to the "ON" position, or after the
engine is started, or comes on while
driving, the SRS is not working properly.
If this occurs, have your vehicle immedi-
ately inspected by your Hyundai dealer.
o Before you replace a fuse or disconnect
a battery terminal, turn the ignition key
to the "LOCK" position or remove the
ignition key. Never remove or replace the
air bag related fuse(s) when the ignition
key is in the "ON" position. Failure to
heed this warning will cause the SRS SRI
to illuminate.

B660A01S-AATCRUISE CONTROL (If installed)
The cruise control system provides automatic
speed control for your comfort when driving on
freeways, tollroads, or other noncongested
highways. This system is designed to function
above approximately 25 mph (40 km/h).
B660B01L-AATTo Set the Cruise Speed
1. Push in the cruise control main switch. This
turns the system on.
2. Accelerate to desired cruising speed above
25 mph (40 km/h).
3. Push the control switch "SET" (COAST)
position. The "CRUISE" indicator light in the
instrument cluster will illuminate after you
have set the vehicle speed at the desired
speed.
4. Remove your foot from the accelerator pedal
and the desired speed will automatically be
maintained.
5. To increase speed, depress the accelerator
pedal enough for the vehicle to exceed the
preset speed. When you remove your foot
from the accelerator pedal, the vehicle will
return to the speed you have set.
B660A03Y
B990A03Y-AATFLOOR MAT ANCHOR
To use a floor mat on the front floor carpet, make
sure it attaches to the floor mat anchor in your
vehicle.
This keeps the floor mat from sliding forward.
WARNING:o make sure the floor mat is properly placed
on the floor carpet. If the floor mat slips
and interferes with the movement of the
pedals during driving, it may cause an
accident.
o Don't put an additional floor mat on the
top of the anchored mat, otherwise the
additional mat may slide forward and
interfere with the movement of the ped-
als.

DRIVING YOUR HYUNDAI 2- 7
C090A03Y-AATAUTOMATIC TRANSAXLE
The highly efficient Hyundai automatic transaxle
has four forward speed and one reverse speed.
The individual speeds are selected automati-
cally, depending on the position of the speed
selector lever. The selector lever has 2 gates;
the main gate and the manual gate.
NOTE:For information on manual gate operation,
refer to "Sports Mode".
In the main gate, the selector lever has 4
positions, and is equipped with a button to avoid
inadvertent wrong selection.
NOTE:Depress the brake pedal and push
the button when shifting.
Push the button when shifting.
The selector lever can be shifted
freely.
The first few shifts on a new vehicle, or if the
battery has been disconnected, may be
somewhat abrupt. This is a normal condi-
tion, and the shifting sequence will adjust
after shifts are cycled a few times by the
T.C.M (Transaxle Control Module).
CAUTION:Never shift into "R" or "P" position while the
vehicle is moving.
!
The indicator lights in the instrument cluster
indicate the selector lever position when the
ignition is switched "ON". During the sports
mode operation, the gear currently in use dis-
plays in the numeral indicator.C090A01YC090A02L

DRIVING YOUR HYUNDAI 2- 11
!
o Driving on rough, gravel or snow-cov-
ered roads.
o Driving with tire chains installed.
o Driving on roads where the road surface
is pitted or has different surface height.
During these conditions the vehicle should
be driven at reduced speeds. The safety
features of an ABS equipped vehicle should
not be tested by high speed driving or
cornering. This could endanger the safety
of yourself or others.

TRACTION CONTROL SYSTEM (TCS)
(If installed)
!
C300B01E-GATTCS ON/OFF Mode
In the TCS ON mode, the indicator in the
instrument cluster will not be illuminated.
To switch the TCS OFF mode, press the TCS
switch . And the SLIP control will be deactivated
and the TCS indicator in the instrument cluster
will be illuminated.
NOTE:1) Turn off the engine. Then restart the
engine, and the TCS mode will automati-
cally turn "ON".
2) When the traction control is operating
properly, you can feel a slight pulsation
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 compartment; however,
this is only the sound of traction control
being checked.
4) When moving out of the mud or fresh
snow, pressing the accelerator pedal
may not cause the engine speed to in-
crease. On slippery road surfaces, the traction control
system (TCS) limits the drive wheels from
spinning excessively, thus helping the car to
accelerate. It also provides sufficient driving
force and steering performance as the car turns
at accelerated speeds. TCS has - SLIP control.
SLIP Control
Limits the drive wheels from spinning exces-
sively during starting or while making acceler-
ated turns on slippery roads to avoid losing the
driving force of the front wheels.
Driving hints
TCS does not actively apply brakes. Be sure to
decelerate the car sufficiently before entering
curves.
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
pressure 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 slippery road surfaces
should be observed.
