If it is very humid inside the car, the air conditioning is turned on automati- cally to control the humidity. The air conditioner filter is located in the right side of the instrument panel. It operates to decrease the amount of pollutants entering the car. To replace the air conditioner filter, refer to page 6-19. CAUTION: o Replace the filter every 10,000 miles (15,000 km) or once a year. If the car is being driven in severe condi- tions such as dusty, rough roads, more frequent air conditioner filter inspec- tions and changes are required. o When the air flow rate is suddenly de- creased, the system should be checked at an authorized dealer. B980F01NF-A When the "Defrost" button is pressed, the " " mode will be automatically selected and the air will be discharged through the windshield de- froster nozzle, side defroster nozzle and side ventilator.

This is because AM radio waves are transmitted at low frequen- cies. These long, low frequency radio waves can follow the curvature of the earth rather than travelling straight out into the atmosphere. In addition, they curve around obstructions so that they can provide better signal coverage. B750A01L AM and FM radio signals are broadcast from transmitter towers located around your city. They are intercepted by the radio antenna on your car. This signal is then received by the radio and sent to your car speakers. When a strong radio signal has reached your vehicle, the precise engineering of your audio system ensures the best possible quality repro- duction. However, in some cases the signal coming to your vehicle may not be strong and clear. This can be due to factors such as the distance from the radio station, closeness of other strong radio stations or the presence of buildings, bridges or other large obstructions in the area. FEATURES OF YOUR HYUNDAI 115115 Unobstructed area Iron bridges Obstructed area B750A03L FM broadcasts are transmitted at high frequen- cies and do not bend to follow the earth's surface. Because of this, FM broadcasts gen- erally begin to fade at short distances from the station. Also, FM signals are easily affected by buildings, mountains, or other obstructions. These can result in certain listening conditions which might lead you to believe a problem exists with your radio. The following conditions are normal and do not indicate radio trouble: 1FEATURES OF YOUR HYUNDAI 116 B750B05Y-AAT Using a cellular phone or a two-way radio When a cellular phone is used inside the vehicle, noise may be produced from the audio equip- ment. This does not mean that something is wrong with the audio equipment. In such a case, use the cellular phone at a place as far as possible from the audio equipment. B750A04L o Fading - As your car moves away from the radio station, the signal will weaken and sound will begin to fade. When this occurs, we suggest that you select another stronger station. o Flutter/Static - Weak FM signals or large obstructions between the transmitter and your radio can disturb the signal causing static or fluttering noises to occur. Reducing the treble level may lessen this effect until the disturbance clears. B750A05L o Station Swapping - As an FM signal weak- ens, another more powerful signal near the same frequency may begin to play. This is because your radio is designed to lock onto the clearest signal. If this occurs, select another station with a stronger signal. o Multi-Path Cancellation - Radio signals being received from several directions can cause distortion or fluttering. This can be caused by a direct and reflected signal from the same station, or by signals from two stations with close frequencies. If this occurs, select another station until the condition has passed. WARNING: Hyundai recommends that you never use a cell phone while driving. This could result in loss of control, and an accident that may cause death, serious injury, or property damage. You must stop at a safe place to use a cellular phone. NOTE: Some states and cities have regulations prohibiting the use of cell phones while driving. You should be aware of the specific requirements in your area.

C010A03A-AAT Engine exhaust fumes can be extremely dangerous. If, at any time, you smell exhaust fumes inside the vehicle, open the windows immediately. o Do not inhale exhaust fumes. Exhaust fumes contain carbon monoxide, a colorless, odorless gas that can cause unconsciousness and death by asphyxiation. o Be sure the exhaust system does not leak. The exhaust system should be checked whenever the vehicle is raised to change the oil or for any other purpose. If you hear a change in the sound of the exhaust or if you drive over something that strikes the underneath side of the car, have the exhaust system checked as soon as possible by your Hyundai dealer. o Do not run the engine in an enclosed area. Letting the engine idle in your garage, even with the garage door open, is a hazardous practice. Never run the engine in your garage any longer than it takes to start the engine and back the car out. o Avoid idling the engine for prolonged periods with people inside the car. If it is necessary to idle the engine for a prolonged period with people inside the car, be sure to do so only in an open area with the air intake set at "Fresh" and fan operating at one of the higher speeds so fresh air is drawn into the interior. If you must drive with the trunk lid open because you are carrying objects that make this necessary: 1. Close all windows. 2. Open side vents. 3. Set the air intake control at "Fresh", the air flow control at "Floor" or "Face" and the fan at one of the higher speeds. To assure proper operation of the ventilation system, be sure the ventilation air intakes located just in front of the windshield are kept clear of snow, ice, leaves or other obstructions. PROPOSITION 65 WARNING: Engine exhaust and a wide variety of automobile components and parts, including components found in the interior furnishings in a vehicle, contain or emit chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects and reproductive harm. In addition, certain fluids contained in vehicles and certain products of component wear contain or emit chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm. BEFORE STARTING THE ENGINE C020A02A-AAT Before you start the engine, you should always: 1. Look around the vehicle to be sure there are no flat tires, puddles of oil, water or other indications of possible trouble. 2. After entering the car, check to be sure the parking brake is engaged. 3. Check that all windows and lights are clean. 4. Check that the interior and exterior mirrors are clean and in position. 5.

Turn off all lights and accessories that are not needed. 9. When you turn the ignition switch to "ON", check that all appropriate warning lights are operating and that you have sufficient fuel. 10. Check the operation of warning lights and all bulbs when key is in the "ON" position. WARNING: o All passengers must be properly belted whenever the vehicle is moving. Refer to pages: 1-21 through 1-28 for more infor- mation on their proper use. o Always check the surrounding areas near your vehicle for people, especially chil- dren, before putting a car into 'drive.' WARNING: Always wear appropriate shoes when oper- ating your vehicle. Unsuitable shoes (high heels, ski boots, etc.) may interfere with your ability to use the brake and accelerator pedal, and the clutch (if installed). DRIVING YOUR HYUNDAI TO START THE ENGINE C030A01E-AAT COMBINATION IGNITION SWITCH o If your Hyundai is equipped with a manual transaxle, place the shift lever in neutral and depress the clutch pedal fully. o If your Hyundai has an automatic transaxle, place the shift lever in "P" (park). o To start the engine, insert the ignition key and turn it to the "START" position. Release it as soon as the engine starts. Do not hold the key in the "START" position for more than 15 seconds. NOTE: o For safety, the engine will not start if the clutch pedal is not depressed fully (Manual Transaxle) or the shift lever is not in "P" or "N" Position (Automatic Transaxle). o The ignition key cannot be turned from "ACC" position to "LOCK" position un- less the shift lever is in the "P" (Park) position or the negative battery terminal is disconnected from the battery. To remove the key, always confirm that the shift lever is securely positioned in "P" (Park) (For Automatic Transaxle). o For additional information about start- ing, see page 2-5. 2 DRIVING YOUR HYUNDAI KEY POSITIONS C040A01A-AAT ACC LOCK ON START C040A01E CAUTION: The engine should not be turned off or the key removed from the ignition key cylinder while the car is in motion. The steering wheel is locked by removing the key. o "START" The engine is started in this position. It will crank until you release the key. NOTE: Do not hold the key in the "START" position for more than 15 seconds. C070C01A-AAT To remove the ignition key ACC o "ON" When the key is in the "ON" position, the ignition is on and all accessories may be turned on. If the engine is not running, the key should not be left in the "ON" position. This will discharge the battery and may also damage the ignition sys- tem. o "ACC" With the key in the "ACC" position, some elec- trical accessories (radio, etc.) may be oper- ated. o "LOCK" The key can be removed or inserted in this position. To protect against theft, the steering wheel locks by removing the key. NOTE: To unlock the steering wheel, insert the key, and then turn the steering wheel and key simultaneously. LOCK ON START C070C01E 1. Turn the ignition key to the "ACC" position. 2. Simultaneously push and turn the ignition key counterclockwise from the "ACC" posi- tion to the "LOCK" position. 3. The key can be removed in the "LOCK" position. DRIVING YOUR HYUNDAI 4. Turn the ignition key to the "START" position and release it when the engine starts. After the engine has started, allow the engine to run for 10 to 20 seconds prior to placing the vehicle in gear. The starter should not be operated for more than 15 seconds at a time. Wait 15-30 seconds between starting attempts to pro- tect the starter from overheating. WARNING: Always fully depress the brake pedal before and while shifting out of the "P" Park posi- tion into another position to avoid inad- vertent motion of the vehicle which could injure persons in or around the car. STARTING C050A01A-AAT LOCK ON C050B02A-AAT Normal Conditions: The Starting Procedure: START C050A01E WARNING: Never run the engine in a closed or poorly ventilated area any longer than is needed to move your car in or out of the area. The carbon monoxide gas emitted is odorless and can cause serious injury or death. Insert key, and fasten the seat belt. 1. 2. Depress the clutch pedal fully and place the gearshift lever (manual transaxle) in neutral or the selector lever (automatic transaxle) in "P" (park) position. 3. After turning the ignition key to the "ON" position, make certain all warning lights and gauges are functioning properly before start- ing the engine. WARNING: Be sure that the clutch is fully depressed when starting a manual transaxle vehicle. Your manual transaxle equipped vehicle will not start unless the clutch pedal is fully depressed. On a manual transaxle equipped vehicle that can be started without de- pressing the clutch, there is the potential to cause damage to the vehicle or injury to someone inside or outside the vehicle as a result of the forward or backward move- ment of the vehicle that will occur if the clutch is not depressed when the vehicle is started. 2 DRIVING YOUR HYUNDAI OPERATING THE MANUAL TRANSAXLE (5 SPEED M/T) C070A01NF-AAT C070A01NF-A This shift pattern is imprinted on the shift knob. The transaxle is fully synchronized in all forward gears so shifting to either a higher or a lower gear is easily accomplished. Mis-shift prevention tab HNF3020 When shifting into reverse gear, pull the mis- shift prevention tab and shift into reverse gear position. NOTE: o To shift into reverse, rest the lever in neutral for at least 3 seconds after your car is completely stopped. Then move the lever into the reverse position. o During cold weather, shifting may be difficult until the transaxle lubricant has warmed up. This is normal and not harm- ful to the transaxle. o If you've come to a complete stop and it's hard to shift into 1st or R(Reverse), put the shift lever in N(Neutral) position and release the clutch. Press the clutch pedal back down, and then shift into 1st or R(Reverse) gear position. o Do not use the shift lever as a handrest during driving, as this can result in pre- mature wear of the transaxle shift forks. CAUTION: o Do not downshift more than 2 gears or downshift the gear when the engine is running at high speed (5,000 RPM or higher). Such a downshifting may dam- age the engine. o When downshifting from fifth gear to fourth gear, caution should be taken not to inadvertently press the gear shift lever sideways in such a manner that second gear is engaged. Such a drastic down- shift may cause the engine speed to increase to the point that the tachometer will enter the red-zone. Such over-rev- ving of the engine may possibly cause engine damage. C070B02A-AAT Using the Clutch C070D03O-AAT Good Driving Practices The clutch should be pressed all the way to the floor before shifting, then released slowly. The clutch pedal should always be fully released while driving. Do not rest your foot on the clutch pedal while driving. This can cause unneces- sary wear. Do not partially engage the clutch to hold the car on an incline. This causes unnec- essary wear. Use the foot brake or parking brake to hold the car on an incline. Do not operate the clutch pedal rapidly and repeatedly. C070E02O-AAT RECOMMENDED SHIFT POINTS The shift points as shown on the chart are recommended for optimum fuel economy and performance. Shift from-to Recommended 1-2 2-3 3-4 4-5 15 mph (20 km/h) 25 mph (40 km/h) 35 mph (55 km/h) 45 mph (75 km/h) o Never take the car out of gear and coast down a hill. This is extremely hazardous. Always leave the car in gear. o Don't "ride" the brakes. This can cause them to overheat and malfunction. Instead, when you are driving down a long hill, slow down and shift to a lower gear. When you do this, engine braking will help slow the car. o Slow down before shifting to a lower gear. This will help avoid over-revving the engine, which can cause damage. o Slow down when you encounter cross winds. This gives you much better control of your car. o Be sure the car is completely stopped before you attempt to shift into reverse. The transaxle can be damaged if you do not. To shift into reverse, depress the clutch, move the shift lever to neutral, wait three seconds, then shift to the reverse position. o 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 ve- hicle speed can cause the drive wheels to lose traction and the vehicle to go out of control. DRIVING YOUR HYUNDAI WARNING: o Always buckle-up! In a collision, an unbelted occupant is significantly more likely to be seriously injured or killed than a properly belted occupant. o Avoid high speeds when cornering or turning. o Do not make quick steering wheel move- ments, such as sharp lane changes or fast, sharp turns. o The risk of rollover is greatly increased if you lose control of your vehicle at high- way speeds. o Loss of control often occurs if two or more wheels drop off the roadway and the driver oversteers to reenter the road- way. o In the event your vehicle leaves the road- way, do not steer sharply. Instead, slow down before pulling back into the travel lanes. o Never exceed posted speed limits. 2 DRIVING YOUR HYUNDAI AUTOMATIC TRANSAXLE (4 SPEED A/T, 5 SPEED A/T) C090A01NF-GAT (If Installed) CAUTION: Never shift into "R" or "P" position while the vehicle is moving. C090A01NF The highly efficient Hyundai automatic transaxle has four/five forward speeds and one reverse speed. The individual speeds are selected au- tomatically, 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. C090A02NF NOTE: Depress the brake pedal when shift- ing. 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). The indicator lights in the instrument cluster indicate the selector lever position when the ignition is switched "ON". During sports mode operation, the gear currently in use displays in the numeral indicator. C090B02A-AAT The function of each position is as fol- lows: o P (Park): Use to hold the vehicle in place when parked or while starting the engine. Whenever parking the car, apply the parking brake and shift the selec- tor lever to the "P" (Park) position. CAUTION: Never place the selector lever in the "P" (Park) position unless the vehicle is fully stopped. Failure to observe this caution will cause severe damage to the transaxle. C090C01A-AAT o R (Reverse): C090F02L-GAT Sports Mode Use for backing up the vehicle. Bring the car to a complete stop before shifting the selector lever to "R" position. C090D02A-AAT o N (Neutral): In the "N" position, the transaxle is in neutral, which means that no gears are engaged. The engine can be started with the shift lever in "N" position, although this is not recommended except if the engine stalls while the car is moving. C090E01NF-GAT o D (Drive): Use for normal driving. The transaxle will auto- matically shift through a four/five gear sequence. C090F02NF Whether the vehicle is stationary or in motion, sports mode is selected by pushing the selector lever from the "D" position into the manual gate. To return to "D" range operation, push the selector lever back into the main gate. In sports mode, moving the selector lever back- wards and forwards can make rapid gearshifts simple. In contrast to a manual transaxle, the sports mode allows gearshifts with the accel- erator pedal depressed. UP (+) : Push the lever forward once to shift up one gear. DOWN (-) : Pull the lever backwards once to shift down one gear. SKIP : By rapidly moving the selector forward or backward twice, it is possible to skip one gear, i.e. 1st to 3rd or 3rd to 1st . DRIVING YOUR HYUNDAI CAUTION: o In sports mode, the driver must execute upward shifts in accordance with pre- vailing road conditions, taking care to keep the engine speed below the red zone. o For engine protection, upward shifts are made automatically when the engine rpm reaches the red zone. o By rapidly moving the selector lever backwards (-) twice it is possible to skip one gear, i.e., 3rd to 1st, 4th to 2nd or 5th to 3rd. Since sudden engine braking and/or rapid acceleration can cause a loss of traction, however, downshifts must be made carefully in accordance with the vehicle's speed. NOTE: o In sports mode, only the four/five for- ward gears can be selected. To reverse or park the vehicle, move the selector lever to the "R" or "P" position as required. o In sports mode, downward shifts are made automatically when the vehicle slows down. When the vehicle stops, 1st gear is automatically selected. 2 DRIVING YOUR HYUNDAI 10 o To maintain the required levels of ve- hicle performance and safety, the sys- tem may not execute certain gearshifts when the selector lever is operated. o Before driving away from a stop on a slippery road, push the selector lever forward into the +(UP) position. This causes the transaxle to shift into 2nd gear which is better for smooth driving away on a slippery road. Push the selec- tor lever to the -(DOWN) side to shift back to 1st gear. C090H01L-GAT NOTE: o For smooth and safe operation, depress the brake pedal when shifting from "Neu- tral" position or "Park" position 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", or "D" position to "P" position. The vehicle must be fully stopped to avoid transaxle damage. C090I03L-GAT CAUTION: C090J01NF-GAT SHIFT LOCK RELEASE (If Installed) o Shift into "R" and "P" position only when the vehicle has completely stopped. o Do not accelerate the engine in reverse or any of the forward positions with the brakes applied. o Always apply the footbrake when shift- ing from "P" or "N", to "R" or "D"position. o Do not use the "P" (Park) position in place of the parking brake. Always set the parking brake, shift the transaxle into "P" (Park) position and turn off the ignition when you leave the vehicle, even momentarily. Never leave the vehicle unattended while the engine is running. o When accelerating from a stop on a steep hill, the vehicle may have a ten- dency to roll backwards. Shifting the shift lever into 2nd gear while in Sport mode will help prevent the vehicle from rolling backwards. o Check the automatic transaxle fluid level regularly, and add fluid as necessary. o See the maintenance schedule for the proper fluid recommendation. C090J01NF If you cannot move the shift lever from the "P" (Park) position to any other position with the brake pedal fully depressed and the ignition key in the "ON" position, remove the cap on the console and with a thin object such as a flat- head screwdriver, push the shift lock release button down. Then, with the brake pedal de- pressed, move the shift lever to the desired position, and then the shift lock release button will automatically return to its original position after shifting from the "P" (Park) position. Then, reinstall the cap. If you need to use the shift lock release, it could mean your car is developing a problem. Have the car checked by your Hyundai dealer. DRIVING YOUR HYUNDAI 11 CAUTION: If your vehicle becomes stuck in snow, mud, sand, etc., then you may attempt to rock the vehicle free by moving it forward and backward. Do not attempt this proce- dure if people or objects are anywhere near the vehicle. During the rocking operation the vehicle may suddenly move forward of backward as it becomes unstuck, causing injury or damage to nearby people or ob- jects. WARNING: o Always buckle-up! In a collision, an unbelted occupant is significantly more likely to be seriously injured or killed than a properly belted occupant. o Avoid high speeds when cornering or turning. o Do not make quick steering wheel move- ments, such as sharp lane changes or fast, sharp turns. o The risk of rollover is greatly increased if you lose control of your vehicle at high- way speeds. o Loss of control often occurs if two or more wheels drop off the roadway and the driver oversteers to reenter the road- way. o In the event your vehicle leaves the road- way, do not steer sharply. Instead, slow down before pulling back into the travel lanes. o Never exceed posted speed limits. C090N05O-AAT Good Driving Practices o Never move the gear selector lever from "P" or "N" to any other position with the accelera- tor 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".
