CAUTION:
If overheating should occur when towing, (temperature gauge readsnear red zone), taking the following action may reduce or eliminate the problem.
1. Turn off the air conditioner.
2. Reduce highway speed.
3. Select a lower gear when going uphill.
4. While in stop and go traffic, place
the gear selector in park or neu- tral and idle the engine at a higher speed.
11. Avoid jerky starts, sudden accel-
eration or sudden stops.
12. Avoid sharp turns and rapid lane changes.
13. Avoid holding the brake pedal down too long or too frequently. This could cause the brakes to over- heat, resulting in reduced brakingefficiency.
14. When going down a hill, shift into a
lower gear and use the engine brak-ing effect. When ascending a long grade, downshift the transmission to a lower gear and reduce speedto reduce chances of engine over- loading and/or overheating.
15. If you have to stop while going uphill, do not hold the vehicle inplace by pressing on the accelera- tor. This can cause the automatictransmission to overheat. Use the parking brake or footbrake.
NOTE: When towing, check transmission fluid more frequently.

3 WHAT TO DO IN AN EMERGENCY
14IF YOUR VEHICLE MUST BE TOWED
D080A02HR-GAT If your vehicle has to be towed, it should be done by your Hyundai dealeror a commercial tow truck service. This will help assure that your vehicle is not damaged in towing. Also, profes-sionals are generally aware of local laws governing towing. In any case, rather than risk damage to your car, itis suggested that you show this infor- mation to the tow truck operator. Be sure that a safety chain system is usedand that all local laws are observed. It is recommended that your vehicle be towed with a wheel lift and dollies orflatbed equipment with all the wheels off the ground.
! CAUTION:
o Your vehicle can be damaged if towed incorrectly!
o Be sure the transmission is in
neutral.
o When the engine will not start, be
sure the steering is unlocked by placing the key in the "ACC" po- sition. CAUTION:
o The 4WD vehicle should never be towed with the wheels on the ground. This can cause seriousdamage to the transmission or the 4WD system.
o When towing the vehicle, take
care not to cause damage to thebumper or underbody of the ve- hicle.

HHP4045
o Do not tow with sling type truck as this may cause damage to the bumper or underbody of the ve- hicle.

WHAT TO DO IN AN EMERGENCY

NOTE:
o To do the emergency towing, first
remove the cover below the bumper on passenger's side by pulling it
o To avoid serious damage to your
4WD vehicle, limit the towing to15 km/h (10 mph) and not for more than 1.5 km (1 mile) at ANYTIME.
o Before towing, check the level of
the automatic transmission fluid.If it is below the "HOT" range on the dipstick, add fluid. If you can- not add fluid, a towing dolly mustbe used. HHP4037
For emergency towing when no com-mercial tow vehicle is available, attacha tow cable, chain or strap to one of the towing hooks under the front/rear of your car. Be very careful when at-tempting this procedure when the ve- hicle is on any unpaved surface to avoid damage to your vehicle.Nor should towing be attempted if the wheels, drive train, axles, steering or brakes are damaged. Before towing,be sure the transmission is in neutral and the key is in "ACC" (with the engine off) or in the "ON" position (withthe engine running). A driver must be in the towed car to steer it and operate the brakes.

4 RUNNING IN YOUR NEW HYUNDAI
B020A02FC-EAT PETROL ENGINE The longevity and performance of the vehicle are greatly affected by the careexercised during the first 1000 miles of motoring. Because of modern manu- facturing techniques, rigid guidelinesregarding maximum road speeds have become unnecessary. However, cer- tain precautions should be observed inorder to obtain the best possible per- formance and useful life from the ve- hicle.
1) Do not race the engine without a
load (i.e revving the engine in neu- tral).
2) During the first 500 miles the maxi-
mum engine speed should be re-stricted to 3000 rpm and gradually increased thereafter.
3) Avoid prolonged constant speed operation. The internal componentsof the engine will become more quickly run in if the operation speedis varied during the running in pe- riod. 4) Never allow the engine to labour. Use
the gearbox freely and avoid large throttle openings when the engine speed is below 1500 rpm.
5) Avoid rapid acceleration and maxi- mum throttle openings.
6) Avoid harsh braking during the first
100 miles of urban motoring or 1000 miles of motorway driving to allow the friction facings of the brake pads and shoes to bed against the discsand drums properly.
7) No trailer/caravan towing should be
undertaken during the 1000 mile run-ning-in period. 1) Do not race the engine without a load
(i.e revving the engine in neutral).
2) During the first 600 miles the maxi- mum engine speed should be re-stricted to 3000 rpm and graduallyincreased thereafter. And while driv- ing, keep under three quarters of maximum vehicle speed.
3) Avoid prolonged constant speed operation. The internal componentsof the engine will become morequickly run in if the operation speed is varied during the running in pe- riod.
4) Never allow the engine to labour. Use the gearbox freely and avoidlarge throttle openings when theengine speed is below 1500 rpm.
5) Avoid rapid acceleration and maxi-
mum throttle openings.

Brake Vacuum Warning Light (Diesel Engine)
The brake vacuum warning light should come on when the vacuum level in brake booster descends to about 275 mmHg or below. The brake system isdesigned to stop the vehicle with re- serve assist if brake pedal is held down. This reserve is greatly reducedeach time you release the brake. With- out vacuum assist your vehicle can still be stopped by pushing much harderon brake pedal, however the stopping distance may be much longer. WARNING:
If you suspect brake trouble, have your brakes checked by a Hyundai authorised repairer as soon as pos- sible. Driving your car with a prob-lem in either the brake electrical sys- tem or brake hydraulic system is dangerous, and could result in seri-ous injury or death.If the light comes on at any other time, you should slow the vehicle and bring itto a complete stop in a safe location off the roadway. After starting the engine, do not drivethe vehicle until the vacuum level is above 275 mmHg below atmosphere and warning light has turned off. Iffurther trouble is experienced, the ve- hicle should not be driven at all but taken to a Hyundai authorised repairerby a professional towing service. B265C02HP-EAT

2 DRIVING YOUR HYUNDAI
14FOUR-WHEEL DRIVE (4WD)
D090A01P-GAT You can send your engine power to all front and rear wheels for maximum power. 4WD is useful when you drive in snow, mud, ice, mountainous orsandy areas where good traction is required, or when your wheels lose traction using two-wheel drive.
The engine speed should be held atapproximately 1,000rpm by meansof the accelerator pedal and the se- lector lever moved between the "D" and "R" positions to induce a rockingmotion.
o Do not depress the accelerator pedal
with the brakes applied and the se-lector at the "R", "D", "2" or "L" position.
o Turn the overdrive switch on for good fuel economy and smooth driving.But if engine braking is needed in the "D" range or if repeated upshiftingand downshifting between the 3rd and 4th gear is needed when climb- ing a gentle slope, it is recommendedthat the overdrive switch be turned off. Turn the overdrive switch back on immediately afterward.
!WARNING:
o Avoid high cornering speeds.
o Do not make quick steering wheel movements, such as sharp lanechanges or fast, sharp turns. o Always wear your seat belts.
In a collision crash, an unbeltedperson is significantly more likelyto die than a person wearing a seatbelt.
o The risk of rollover is greatly in- creased if you lose control of yourvehicle at motorway speeds.
o Loss of control often occurs if two
or more wheels drop off the road-way and the driver oversteers to reenter the roadway.
o In the event your vehicle leaves the roadway, do not steer sharply.Instead, slow down before pullingback into the travel lanes.
o Never exceed posted speed limits.
o Excessive depressing of the
accelerater pedal under the tyre slip condition such as moving out of the mud or fresh snow etc, maycause severe damage to the trans- mission. At this time, take other way such as towing.
