Information
If the smart key battery is weak or the
smart key does not work correctly, you
can start the engine by pressing the Engine
Start/Stop button with the smart key in
the direction of the picture above.
MANUAL TRANSMISSION
OQX069077N
The shift lever can be moved without
pressing the button (1).
The button (1) must be pressed while
moving the shift lever to R (Reverse).
Manual Transmission Operation
The manual transmission has 6
forward gears. The transmission is fully
synchronized in all forward gears so
shifting to either a higher or a lower gear
can be easily accomplished.
WARNING
Before leaving the driver's seat, always
make sure the shift lever is in 1st gear
when the vehicle is parked on a uphill
and in R (Reverse) on a downhill, set the
parking brake, and place the ignition
switch in the LOCK/OFF position.
Unexpected vehicle movement may
occur if these precautions are not
followed.
To shift to R (Reverse), make sure the
vehicle has completely stopped, and
then move the shift lever to neutral
before moving into R (Reverse).
When you've come to a complete stop
and it's hard to shift into 1st gear or R
(Reverse):
1. Put the shift lever in neutral and
release the clutch pedal.
2. Depress the clutch pedal, and then
shift into 1 (first) or R (Reverse) gear.

06
6-13
NOTICE
During cold weather, shifting may be
difficult until the transmission lubricant
has warmed up.
Using the clutch
The clutch pedal should be depressed all
the way before:
- Starting the engine
The engine will not start without
depressing the clutch pedal.
- Shifting into gear, up shifting to the
next higher gear, or down shifting to
the next lower gear.
When releasing the clutch pedal, release
it slowly. The clutch pedal should always
be fully released while driving.
CAUTION
To prevent unnecessary wear or
damage to the clutch:

[Do not rest your foot on the clutch
pedal while driving.

[Do not hold the vehicle with the
clutch on an incline, while waiting for
the traffic light, etc.

[Always depress the clutch pedal
down fully to prevent noise or
damage.

[Do not depress the clutch pedal
again until it is fully released.

[Do not start in 2nd (second) gear
except when you are in slippery road
conditions.

[Do not drive with cargo loaded more
than required loading capacity.
Downshifting
Down shift to a lower gear when slowing
down in heavy traffic or driving up a
steep hill to prevent high engine loads.
Also, downshifting reduces the chance
of stalling and helps reaccelerate the
vehicle when you need to increase your
speed.
When the vehicle is going downhill,
downshifting helps maintain safe speed
by providing engine braking (brake
power from the engine) and results in
less wear on the brakes.
NOTICE
To prevent damage to the engine,
clutch and transmission:

[When downshifting from 5
th
gear to 4th gear, be careful not to
inadvertently push the shift lever
sideways engaging the 2
nd gear. A
drastic downshift may cause the
engine speed to increase to the
point the tachometer will enter
the redzone and may cause engine
damage.

[Do not downshift more than two
gear at a time or downshift the gear
when the engine is running at high
speed (5,000 RPM or higher).
Such down shifting may damage the
engine, clutch and the transmission.

While Driving
6-14
Good Driving Practices

[Never take the vehicle out of gear and
coast down a hill. This is extremely
dangerous.

[Don't "ride" the brakes. This can
cause the brakes and related parts to
overheat and malfunction.
When you are driving down a long hill,
slow down and shift to a lower gear.
Engine braking will help slow down
the vehicle.

[Slow down before shifting to a lower
gear. This will help avoid over-revving
the engine, which can cause damage.

[Slow down when you encounter cross
winds. This gives you much better
control of your vehicle.

[Be sure the vehicle is completely
stopped before you shift into R
(Reverse) to prevent damage to the
transmission.

[Exercise extreme caution when
driving on a slippery surface. Be
especially careful when braking,
accelerating or shifting gears. On a
slippery surface, an abrupt change
in vehicle speed can cause the drive
wheels to lose traction and may cause
loss of vehicle control resulting in an
accident.
WARNING
Do not use aggressive engine braking
(shifting from a higher gear to a lower
gear) on slippery roads. This could
cause the tires to slip and may result in
an accident.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of SERIOUS INJURY
or DEATH:

[ALWAYS wear your seat belt. In a
collision, an unbelted occupant
is significantly more likely to be
seriously injured or killed than a
properly belted occupant.

[Avoid high speeds when cornering or
turning.

[Do not make quick steering wheel
movements, such as sharp lane
changes or fast, sharp turns.

[The risk of rollover is greatly
increased if you lose control of your
vehicle at highway speeds.

[Loss of control often occurs if two or
more wheels drop off the roadway
and the driver over steers to reenter
the roadway.

[In the event your vehicle leaves
the roadway, do not steer sharply.
Instead, slow down before pulling
back into the travel lanes.

[HYUNDAI recommends you follow all
posted speed limits.

While Driving
6-16
WARNING
To reduce the risk of serious injury or
death:

[ALWAYS check the surrounding
areas near your vehicle for people,
especially children, before shifting a
vehicle into D (Drive) or R (Reverse).

[Before leaving the driver's seat,
always make sure the shift lever
is in the P (Park) position, then set
the parking brake, and place the
ignition switch in the LOCK/OFF
position. Unexpected and sudden
vehicle movement can occur if these
precautions are not followed.

[When using Manual Shift Mode, do
not use aggressive engine braking
(shifting from a higher gear to a
lower gear) on slippery roads. This
could cause the tires to slip and may
result in an accident.
Transmission ranges
The indicator in the instrument cluster
displays the shift lever position when the
ignition switch is in the ON position.
P (Park)
Always come to a complete stop before
shifting into P (Park).
To shift from P (Park), you must depress
firmly on the brake pedal and make sure
your foot is off the accelerator pedal.
If you have done all of the above and still
cannot shift the lever out of P (Park), see
"Shift-Lock Release" in this section.
The shift lever must be in P (Park) before
turning the engine off.
WARNING

[Shifting into P (Park) while the
vehicle is in motion may cause you to
lose control of the vehicle.

[Do not use the P (Park) position in
place of the parking brake. Always
make sure the shift lever is latched
in the P (Park) position and set the
parking brake fully.

[Never leave a child unattended in a
vehicle.
R (Reverse)
Use this position to drive the vehicle
backward.
NOTICE
Always come to a complete stop before
shifting into or out of R (Reverse); you
may damage the transmission if you
shift into R (Reverse) while the vehicle is
in motion.
N (Neutral)
The wheels and transmission are not
engaged.
Use N (Neutral) if you need to restart a
stalled engine. Shift into P (Park) if you
need to leave your vehicle for any reason.
Always depress the brake pedal when
you are shifting from N (Neutral) to
another gear.
WARNING
Do not shift into gear unless your foot is
firmly on the brake pedal. Shifting into
gear when the engine is running at high
speed can cause the vehicle to move
very rapidly. You could lose control of
the vehicle and hit people or objects.

While Driving
6-18
Shift-lock system
For your safety, the Intelligent Variable
Transmission (IVT) has a shift-lock
system which prevents shifting the
transmission from P (Park) into R
(Reverse) unless the brake pedal is
depressed.
To shift the transmission from P (Park)
into R (Reverse):
1. Depress and hold the brake pedal.
2. Start the engine or place the ignition
switch in the ON position.
3. Move the shift lever.
Shift-lock release
OQX069004N
If the shift lever cannot be moved from
the P (Park) position into R (Reverse)
position with the brake pedal depressed,
continue depressing the brake, and then
do the following:
1. Place the ignition switch in the LOCK/
OFF position.
2. Apply the parking brake.
3. Carefully remove the cap (1) covering
the shift-lock release access hole.
4. Insert a tool (e.g. flathead screwdriver)
into the access hole and press down
on the tool (2).
5. Move the shift lever.6. Remove the tool from the shift-lock
override access hole then install the
cap.
If you need to use the shift-lock release,
have your vehicle inspected by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer immediately.
Parking
Always come to a complete stop and
continue to depress the brake pedal.
Move the shift lever into the P (Park)
position, apply the parking brake, and
place the ignition switch in the LOCK/
OFF position. Take the Key with you
when exiting the vehicle.
WARNING

[When you stay in the vehicle with
the engine running, be careful not
to depress the accelerator pedal for
a long period of time. The engine or
exhaust system may overheat and
start a fire.

[The exhaust gas and the exhaust
system are very hot. Keep away from
the exhaust system components.

[Do not stop or park over flammable
materials, such as dry grass, paper
or leaves. They may ignite and cause
a fire.

Good Driving Practices

[Never move the shift lever from P
(Park) or N (Neutral) to any other
position with the accelerator pedal
depressed.

[Never move the shift lever into P
(Park) when the vehicle is in motion.
Be sure the vehicle is completely
stopped before you attempt to shift
into R (Reverse) or D (Drive).

[Do not move the shift lever to N
(Neutral) when driving. Doing so may
result in an accident because of a loss
of engine braking.

[Driving uphill or downhill, always shift
to D (Drive) when driving forward or to
R (Reverse) when driving backwards,
and check the gear position indicated
on the cluster before driving. If you
drive in the opposite direction of the
selected gear, the engine will turn
off and a serious accident might be
occurred due to the degraded brake
performance.

[Do not drive with your foot resting
on the brake pedal. Even light, but
consistent pedal pressure can result
in the brakes overheating, brake wear
and possibly even brake failure.

[Do not hold the vehicle on the incline
with the accelerator pedal. This can
cause the transmission to overheat.
Always use the brake pedal or parking
brake.

[Depressing both accelerator
and brake pedals at the same
time can trigger logic for engine
power reduction to assure vehicle
deceleration. Vehicle acceleration
will resume after the brake pedal is
released.

[Always apply the parking brake when
leaving the vehicle. Do not depend on
placing the transmission in P (Park) to
keep the vehicle from moving.
[Exercise extreme caution when
driving on a slippery surface. Be
especially careful when braking,
accelerating or shifting gears. On a
slippery surface, an abrupt change
in vehicle speed can cause the drive
wheels to lose traction and may cause
loss of vehicle control resulting in an
accident.

[Optimum vehicle performance and
economy is obtained by smoothly
depressing and releasing the
accelerator.
