o Don't coast down hills with the car out of gear. This is extremely haz- ardous. Keep the car in gear at all times, use the brakes to slow down, then shift to a lower gear so thatengine braking will help you main- tain a safe speed.
o Don't "ride" the brake pedal. Rest- ing your foot on the brake pedalwhile driving can be dangerous be- cause it can result in the brakesoverheating and losing their effec- tiveness. It also increases the wear of thebrake components.
o If a tire goes flat while you are
driving, apply the brakes gently andkeep the car pointed straight ahead while you slow down. When you are moving slowly enough for it to besafe to do so, pull off the road and stop in a safe place.
o If your car is equipped with an auto- matic transmission, don't let yourcar creep forward. To avoid creep- ing forward, keep your foot firmly onthe brake pedal when the car is stopped.
o Use caution when parking on a hill. Engage the parking brake and place the gear selector lever in "P" (auto- matic transmission) or in first orreverse gear (manual transmission). If your car is facing downhill, turn the front wheels into the curb to helpkeep the car from rolling. If your car is facing uphill, turn the front wheels away from the curb to help keep thecar from rolling. If there is no curb or if it is required by other conditions to keep the car from rolling, block thewheels.
o Under some conditions your park-
ing brake can freeze in the engagedposition. This is most likely to hap- pen when there is an accumulation of snow or ice around or near therear brakes or if the brakes are wet. If there is a risk that the parking brake may freeze, apply it only tem-porarily while you put the gear se- lector lever in "P" (automatic) or in first or reverse gear (manual trans-mission) and block the rear wheels so the car cannot roll. Then release the parking brake.
o Do not hold the vehicle on the up- grade with the accelerator pedal.This can cause the transmission tooverheat. Always use the brake pedal or parking brake.DRIVING FOR ECONOMY
C140A02A-AAT You can save fuel and get more miles from your car if you follow these sug- gestions:
o Drive smoothly. Accelerate at a moderate rate. Don't make "jack- rabbit" starts or full-throttle shiftsand maintain a steady cruising speed. Don't race between stop- lights. Try to adjust your speed tothat of the other traffic so you don't have to change speeds unneces- sarily. Avoid heavy traffic wheneverpossible. Always maintain a safe distance from other vehicles so you can avoid unnecessary braking. Thisalso reduces brake wear.
o Drive at a moderate speed. The
faster you drive, the more fuel yourcar uses. Driving at a moderate speed, especially on the highway, is one of the most effective ways toreduce fuel consumption.

C160H01A-AAT Use Approved Anti-Freeze in Window Washer System To keep the water in the window washer system from freezing, add an approvedanti-freeze solution in accordance with instructions on the container. Window washer anti-freeze is available fromHyundai dealers and most auto parts outlets. Do not use engine coolant or other types of anti-freeze as thesemay damage the finish. C160I01HP-GAT Don't Let Your Parking Brake Freeze Under some conditions your parking brake can freeze in the engaged posi- tion. This is most likely to happen whenthere is an accumulation of snow or ice around or near the rear brakes or if the brakes are wet. If there is a risk theparking brake may freeze, apply it only temporarily while you put the gear selec- tor lever in "P" (automatic) or in first orreverse 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 emergencyequipment. Some of the items you may want to carry include tire chains, tow straps or chains, flashlight, emer-gency flares, sand, a shovel, jumper cables, a window scraper, gloves, ground cloth, coveralls, a blanket, etc.HIGHER SPEED MOTORING
C170A01A-AAT Pre-Trip Inspections 1. Tires: Adjust the tire inflation pressures to specification. Low tire inflation pres- sures 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 in- flation pressure 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 engineoil. 3. Drive belt: A loose or damaged drive belt may result in overheating of the engine.
C160J01A-AAT Don't Let Ice and Snow Accumu- late Underneath Under some conditions, snow and ice can build up under the fenders andinterfere with the steering. When driv- ing in severe winter conditions where this may happen, you should periodi-cally check underneath the car to be sure the movement of the front wheels and the steering components is notobstructed.

C190F01HP-GAT Trailer or Vehicle Towing Tips
1. Before towing, check hitch and safety chain connections as well as proper operation of the trailer running lights, brake lights, and turn signals.
2. Always drive your vehicle at a mod- erate speed (Less than 100 km/h).
3. Trailer towing requires more fuel than normal conditions.
4. To maintain engine braking effi-
ciency, do not tow a trailer with thetransmission in fifth gear (manual transmission) or an overdrive gear (automatic transmission).
5. Always secure items in the trailer to prevent load shift while driving.
6. Check the condition and air pres- sure of all tires on the trailer and your car. Low tire pressure can seriously affect the handling. Alsocheck the spare tire.

7. The vehicle/trailer combination is more affected by crosswind and buffeting. When being passed by a large vehicle, keep a constant speed and steer straight ahead. Ifthere is too much wind buffeting slow down to get out of the other vehicle's air turbulence.
8. When parking your car and trailer, especially on a hill, be sure to fol-low all the normal precautions. Turnyour front wheel into the curb, set the parking brake firmly, and put the transmission in 1st or Reverse(manual) or Park (automatic). In addition, place wheel chocks at each of the trailer's tires.
9. If the trailer has electric brakes, start your vehicle and trailer mov-ing, and then apply the trailer brakecontroller by hand to be sure the brakes are working. This lets you check your electrical connection atthe same time.
10. During your trip, check occasion-
ally to be sure that the load issecure, and that the lights and any trailer brakes are still working.

!
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.

!
5. Start the engine in the car with the
discharged battery using the nor- mal starting procedure. After the engine starts, leave the jumper cables connected and let the enginerun at fast idle or about 2000 rpm for several minutes.
6. Carefully remove the jumper cables in the reverse order of attachment.
If you do not know why your battery became discharged (because the lights were left on, etc.), have the charging system checked by your Hyundaidealer. D030A02HP-AAT If your temperature gauge indicates overheating, you experience a loss of power, or hear loud pinging or knock- ing, the engine is probably too hot. Ifthis happens to you, you should:
1. Pull off the road and stop as soon as
it is safe to do so.
2. Place the gear selector lever in "P"
(automatic), or neutral (manual transmission) and set the parking brake. If the air conditioning is on, turn it off.
3. If engine coolant is running out un- der the car or steam is coming outfrom under the hood, stop the en-gine. Do not open the hood until the engine coolant has stopped running or the steaming has stopped. If thereis no visible loss of coolant and no steam, leave the engine running and check to be sure the enginecooling fan is operating. If the fan is not running, turn the engine off. 4. Check to see if the water pump drive
belt is missing. If it is not missing, check to see that it is tight. If the drive belt seems to be satisfactory, check for engine coolant leakingfrom the radiator, hoses or under the car. (If the air conditioning had been in use, it is normal for coldwater to be draining from it when you stop).
WARNING:
While the engine is running, keephands and clothing away from mov- ing parts such as the fan and drivebelts to prevent injury.

CHANGING A FLAT TIREIF YOU HAVE A FLAT TIRE
D050A01HP-GAT If a tire goes flat while you are driving:
1. Take your foot off the accelerator pedal and let the car slow down while driving straight ahead. Do not apply the brakes immediately or at- tempt to pull off the road as this maycause a loss of control. When the car has slowed to such a speed that it is safe to do so, brake carefullyand pull off the road. Drive off the road as far as possible and park on firm, level ground. If you are on adivided highway, do not park in the median area between the two traffic lanes.
2. When the car is stopped, turn on your emergency hazard flashers,set the parking brake and put thetransmission in "P" (automatic trans- mission) or reverse (manual trans- mission).
3. Have all passengers get out of the car. Be sure they all get out on theside of the car that is away fromtraffic.
4. Change the tire according to the
instructions provided as following. D060A02HP-GAT The procedure described on the fol- lowing pages can be used to rotate tires as well as to change a flat tire.When preparing to change a flat tire, check to be sure the gear selector lever is in "P" (automatic transmission)or reverse gear (manual transmission) and that the parking brake is set, then:
D060A01HPWARNING:
Your vehicle is equipped with tires designed to provide for safe ride and handling capability. Do not use a size and type of tireand wheel that is different from the one that was originally installed on your vehicle. It can affect the safetyand performance of your vehicle, which could lead to handling fail- ure or rollover and serious injury.When replacing the tires, be sure to equip all four tires with the tire and wheel of the same size, type, tread, brand and load-carrying capacity. If you nevertheless decide to equipyour vehicle with any tire/wheel combination not recommended by Hyundai for off-road driving, youshould not use these tires for high- way driving.
