2- 4 C070A02HP-GAT OPERATING THE MANUAL TRANSMISSION Your Hyundai's manual transmission has a con- ventional shift pattern. This shift pattern is im- printed on the shift knob. The transmission is fully synchronized in all forward gears so shifting to either a higher or a lower gear is easily accom- plished. NOTE:
o To shift into reverse, rest the lever in
neutral for at least 3 seconds after yourcar is completely stopped. Then move the lever into the reverse position.
o During cold weather, shifting may be dif- ficult until the transmission lubricant has warmed up. This is normal and not harm- ful to the transmission.
o If you 've come to a complete stop and it's hard to shift into 1st or R(Reverse), put the
SSA2090A
NOTE: If the engine were not started within 2 sec- onds after the preheating is completed, turn the ignition key once more to the "LOCK" position during 10 seconds, and then to the "ON" position, in order to preheat again.
5. Operate the accelerator pedal as describedbelow in accordance with the atmospheric temperature and/or engine condition. (Diesel Engine (2.5 TCI) Only)
(1) When the atmospheric temperature is moderate or the engine is warm:Start the engine without depressing the accelerator pedal.
(2) When the atmospheric temperature is
low and the engine is cold: Start the engine while depressing the accelerator pedal. If the atmospheric tem- perature is very low, setting the ignition switch to "ON" for one or two seconds before attempting to start the engine will make it easier to start.
6. Turn the ignition key to the "START" position and release it when the engine starts. C055B01HP-GAT STARTING AND STOPPING THE EN- GINE FOR TURBO CHARGER INTER- COOLER (Diesel Engine)
(1) Do not race the engine or sudden accelerate
the engine immediately after start it. If the engine is cold, allow the engine to idle for several seconds before it is driven to ensure sufficient lubrication of the turbo charger unit.
(2) After high speed or extended driving, requir- ing a heavy engine load, the engine should be allowed to idle, as shown in the chart below, before turning it off. This idle time will allow the turbo charger to cool prior to shutting the engine off.
Required Idle Time
High speed driving Driving Condition
Normal drivingNot necessary About 20 seconds About 1 minute
Up to 100km/h
Up to 80 km/h
Steep mountain slopes or contin- ued driving in excess of 100km/h About 2 minutes
WARNING: Do not turn the engine off immediately after it has been subjected to a heavy load. Doing so may cause severe damage to the engine or turbo charger unit.

C090H01HP-DAT CAUTION:
o P (Park): Use this range to park the vehicle. This range is also used when engine is started and warmed up.
o N (Neutral): The engine can be started in this range, but the use of "P" range is recommended for safer start up. NOTE:
o For smooth operation, depress the brake
pedal when shifting from NEUTRAL orPARK to a forward or reverse gear.
o The ignition key must be in the "ON" position and the brake pedal fully de- pressed in order to move the shift lever from the "P" (Park)position to any of the other positions.
o It is always possible to shift from "R", "N",
"D", "2", "L" positions to "P" position. However, the vehicle must be fully stopped to avoid transmission damage.
C090I01HP-GAT CAUTION:
o Shift into "R" and "P" position only when the vehicle has completely stopped.
o Do not accelerate the engine in the re-
verse or any of the forward positions withthe brakes applied. o Always apply the footbrake when shifting
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 set the parking brake, shift the transmission into P(Park) and turn off the ignition when you leave the vehicle, even momentarily. Never leave the vehicle unattended while the engine is running.
o Check the automatic transmission fluid
level regularly, and add fluid as neces- sary.
When the overdrive switch is turned on, thetransmission will automatically upshift to the sec- ond, third and overdrive gears. When the over- drive switch is turned off, the transmission will not upshift to the overdrive gear at all.
C090J01HP-DAT OVERDRIVE SWITCH (If installed)
C090J01HP
C090N02O-AAT Good Driving Practices
o Never move the gear selector lever from "P"
or "N" to any other position with the acceler- ator pedal depressed.
o Never move the gear selector lever into "P" when the vehicle is in motion.
o Be sure the car is completely stopped before you attempt to shift into "R".
o Never take the car out of gear and coast down a hill. This may be extremely hazardous. Always leave the car in gear when moving.
For normal driving, the selector lever should beleft in the "D" position and the overdrive switch turned on. If you need to accelerate rapidly, press the accel- erator pedal all the way to the floor. The transmis- sion will automatically shift to a lower gear, depending on the speed. NOTE: Turn the overdrive switch on for good fuel economy and smooth driving. If engine brak- ing is needed in the "D" range or if repeated upshifting and downshifting between the 3rd and 4th gear is needed when climbing a gentle slope, it is recommended that the over- drive switch be turned off. Turn the overdrive switch back on immediately afterward.

1. Knob position This is used to set different positions. AUTO Mode Full power delivered to front and rear axles for increase traction. Use this mode for normal on- road operating conditions such as dry road sur- faces, wet pavement, snow-covered roads and/ or off-road. LOW Mode Full power to both axles, including a lower gear ratio for low-speed applications that require extra power such as dry road surfaces, wet pavement, snow-covered roads and/or off-road. Especially when increased drive power is re- quired. "LOW" mode is not recommended on dry pave- ment. The 4WD LOW indicator light ( ) will be tur- ned on to remind you that you are in the LOW mode. 2. Transfer shift knob operation AUTO

AUTO
1. Stop the vehicle.
2. Depress the clutch pedal (Manual Trans- mission) or put the shift lever into "N (neu-tral)" position (Automatic Transmission).
3. Turn the transfer shift knob to "AUTO" mode. Driving 4WD Safely
(1) Be sure to wear the seat belt.
(2) Drive at lower speeds in strong crosswinds. Because of your vehicle’s high center of gravity, its stability will be affected in cross- winds. Slower speeds ensure better vehicle control.
(3) Check the brake condition after driving in wet or muddy conditions. Press the brakeseveral times as you move slowly until you feel normal braking forces return.
(4) Do not drive the vehicle through water. (i.e. streams, rivers, lakes, etc.)
(5) The stopping distance of the full-time 4WD vehicle differs very little from that of the 2WD vehicle.
When driving on a snow-covered road or a slippery, muddy surface, make sure thatyou keep a sufficient distance between your vehicle and the one ahead of you.
(6) Since the driving torque is always applied to
the 4 wheels, the performance of the full- time 4WD vehicle is greatly affected by the condition of the tires. Be sure to equip it with all four tires of the same size and type.o When replacement of any of the tires ordisc wheels is necessary, replace all of them.
o Rotate the tires and check the tire pres- sure at regular intervals.
(7) The full-time 4WD vehicle cannot be towed by an ordinary tow truck. Makesure that the vehicle is towed with its four wheels raised off the ground.
o If the vehicle is towed with its only two wheels raised off the ground, the 4WDsystem could be damaged.
o In unavoidable case, if the vehicle is being towed with all four wheels on theground, it should be towed only forward direction with rope.
o While towing, check the following items. 1. The ignition switch is in "ACC" or"ON".
2. Place the shift lever in neutral (For Automatic Transmission, "N" posi-tion).
3. Release the parking brake.
NOTE: To avoid serious damage to your 4WD ve- hicle, limit towing to 15km/h (10 mph) and not for more than 1.5km (1 mile) at ANY TIME.

C160H01A-AAT Use Approved Anti-Freeze in Window Washer System To keep the water in the window washer system from freezing, add an approved anti-freeze solu- tion in accordance with instructions on the con- tainer. Window washer anti-freeze is available from Hyundai dealers and most auto parts out- lets. Do not use engine coolant or other types of anti-freeze as these may damage the finish.
C160F01A-AAT Check Spark Plugs and Ignition System Inspect your spark plugs as described in Section 6 and replace them if necessary. Also check all ignition wiring and components to be sure they are not cracked, worn or damaged in any way.
C160G02A-GAT To Keep Locks from Freezing To keep the locks from freezing, squirt an ap- proved de-icer fluid or glycerine into the key opening. If a lock is covered with ice, squirt it with an approved de-icing fluid to remove the ice. If the lock is frozen internally, you may be able to thaw it out by using a heated key. Handle the heated key with care to avoid
injury.
NOTE: The proper temperature for using the immo- bilizer key is from -40°C (-40°F) to 80°C (176°F). If you heat the immobilizer key over 80°C (176°F) to open the frozen lock, it may cause damage to the transponder in its head. C160I01HP-GAT Don’t Let Your Parking Brake Freeze Under some conditions your parking brake can freeze in the engaged position. This is most likely to happen when there is an accumulation of snow or ice around or near the rear brakes or if the brakes are wet. If there is a risk the parking brake may freeze, apply it only temporarily while you put the gear selector lever in "P" (automatic) or in first or reverse gear (manual transmission) and block the rear wheels so the car cannot roll. Then release the parking brake. C160K01A-AAT Carry Emergency Equipment Depending on the severity of the weather where you drive your car, you should carry appropriate emergency equipment. Some of the items you may want to carry include tire chains, tow straps or chains, flashlight, emergency flares, sand, a shovel, jumper cables, a window scraper, gloves, ground cloth, coveralls, a blanket, etc.
C160J01A-AAT Don’t Let Ice and Snow Accumulate Underneath Under some conditions, snow and ice can build up under the fenders and interfere with the steer- ing. When driving in severe winter conditions where this may happen, you should periodically check underneath the car to be sure the move- ment of the front wheels and the steering compo- nents is not obstructed.
C180A01A-AAT USE OF LIGHTS Check your lights regularly for correct operation and always keep them clean. When driving dur- ing the day in conditions of poor visibility, it is helpful to drive with headlights on low beam. This enables you to be seen as well as to see.
C170A01A-AAT HIGHER SPEED MOTORING Pre-Trip Inspections 1. Tires: Adjust the tire inflation pressures to specifica- tion. Low tire inflation pressures will result in overheating and possible failure of the tires. Avoid using worn or damaged tires which may result in reduced traction or tire failure. NOTE: Never exceed the maximum tire inflation pres- sure shown on the tires. 2. Fuel, engine coolant and engine oil: High speed travel consumes more fuel than urban motoring. Do not forget to check both engine coolant and engine oil. 3. Drive belt: A loose or damaged drive belt may result in overheating of the engine.

3. Be sure to check all other fuses even if you find one that appears to have burned out.
4. Replace the blown fuse by pressing a new
fuse of the same rating into place. The fuse should be a snug fit. If it is not, have the fuse clip repaired or replaced by a Hyundai dealer. If you do not have a spare fuse, you may be able to borrow a fuse of the same or lower rating from an accessory you can tempo- rarily get along without (the radio or cigarette lighter, for example). Always remember to replace the borrowed fuse.
1. Turn off the ignition and all other switches.
2. Open the fuse box and examine each fuse.
Remove each fuse by pulling it toward you (a small "fuse puller" tool is contained in the relay box to simplify this operation).

G200B03YBurned out
CAUTION: A burned-out fuse indicates that there is a
problem in the electrical circuit. If you re-place a fuse and it blows as soon as the accessory is turned on, the problem is seri- ous and should be referred to a Hyundai dealer for diagnosis and repair. Never re- place a fuse with anything except a fuse with the same or a lower amperage rating. A higher capacity fuse could cause damage and create a fire hazard.
G200B01HP-GAT Replacing Accessory Fuses
G200B01HP
The fuse box for the lights and other electrical accessories will be found under the dashboard on the driver’s side. Inside the box you will find a list showing the circuits protected by each fuse.If any of your car’s lights or other electrical accessories stop working, a blown fuse could be the reason. If the fuse has burned out, you will see that the metal strip inside the fuse has burned through. If you suspect a blown fuse, follow this procedure:
CAUTION: When replacing a fusible link, never useanything but a new fusible link with the same or lower amperage rating. Never use a piece of wire or a higher-rated fusible link. This could result in serious damage and create a fire hazard.

G350A01HP-GAT BLEEDING THE FUEL SYSTEM
(FOR DIESEL ENGINE (2.5 TCI))
E090A01HP
The fuel system should be bled to remove air as described in the illustration if the fuel supply is exhausted during travel, when the fuel filter is replaced, or if the vehicle is not used for a long time.
G240A01A-AAT POWER STEERING HOSESIt is suggested that you check the power steer- ing hose connections for fluid leakage at regular intervals. The power steering hoses should be replaced if there is severe surface cracking, pulling, scuffing or worn spots. Deterioration of the hose could cause premature failure.
NOTE: Do not start the engine when the powersteering oil reservoir is empty.
2. Pump the hand pump until there are no more
bubbles in the fuel coming out of the air plug. When doing this, place a cloth around the air plug to prevent the escaping fuel from spew- ing about.
3. Tighten the air bleed bolt when there are no more bubbles in the fuel.
4. Continue pumping until the hand pump be- comes stiff.
5. Finally, check to be sure that there is no leakage of fuel.If in doubt, consult your nearest authorizedHYUNDAI dealer.
WARNING:
(1) Do not smoke or have any other open flame near the vehicle while bleeding the fuel system.
E090A02HP
1. Loosen the air bleed bolt at the top of the fuel
filter with a flat-bladed screwdriver or equiva- lent.
The power steering fluid level should be checked daily. To check the power steering fluid level, be surethe ignition is "OFF", then check to make cer- tain that the power steering fluid level is be- tween the "MAX" and "MIN" level markings on the fluid reservoir. NOTE: Grinding noise from the power steering pump may be heard immediately after the engine is started in extremely cold condi- tions (below - 20°C). If the noise stops dur- ing warm up, there is no abnormal function in the system. If is due to a power steering fluid characteristic in extremely cold condi- tions. Recommended Fluid Use PSF-3 type fluid.
