B760A01E The climate control air filter is located in front of the blower unit behind the glove box. It operates to decrease the amount of pol- lutants entering the car. To replace the climate control air filter, refer to the page 6-17.

CAUTION:

o Replace the filter every 10,000 miles (15,000 km) or once a year. If the car is being driven in severe conditions such as dusty, rough roads, more frequent climate control air filter in- spections and changes are required. o When the air flow rate is suddenly decreased, the system should be checked by an authorized dealer.

Unobstructed

area

Buildings

B750A02L AM broadcasts can be received at greater distances than FM broadcasts. This is because AM radio waves are transmitted at low frequencies. These long, low fre- quency radio waves can follow the curva- ture of the earth rather than travelling straight out into the atmosphere. In addi- tion, they curve around obstructions so that they can provide better signal cover- age.

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 pos- sible quality reproduction. 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 obstruc- tions in the area.

Iron bridges

Obstructed area

B750A03L FM broadcasts are transmitted at high fre- quencies and do not bend to follow the earth's surface. Because of this, FM broad- casts generally begin to fade at short dis- tances from the station. Also, FM signals are easily affected by buildings, moun- tains, 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 110

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 an- other 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 weakens, another more powerful sig- nal near the same frequency may begin to play. This is because your radio is designed to lock onto the clearest sig- nal. 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 sig- nals from two stations with close fre- quencies. If this occurs, select another station until the condition has passed.

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 equipment. This does not mean that something is wrong with the audio equip- ment. In such a case, use the cellular phone at a place as far as possible from the audio equipment.

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 spe- cific requirements in your area.

CARE OF DISCS

B850A02F-AAT

Proper Handling

Storage When not in use, place your discs in their individual case and store them in a cool place away from the sun, heat, and dust. Do not grip or pull out the disc with your hand while the disc is being pulled into the unit by the self loading mechanism.

B850A01L Handle your disc as shown. Do not drop the disc. Hold the disc so you will not leave fingerprints on the surface. If the surface is scratched, it may cause the pickup to skip signal tracks. Do not affix tape, paper, or gummed labels on the disc. Do not write on the disc.

Damaged Disc Do not attempt to play damaged, warped or cracked discs. These could severely damage the playback mechanism.

B850A02L

Fingerprints, dust, or soil on the surface of a disc could cause the pickup to skip signal tracks. Wipe the surface clean with a clean soft cloth. If the surface is heavily soiled, dampen a clean soft cloth in a solution of mild neutral detergent to wipe it clean. See drawing.

B870D02JM-U Your car uses a roof antenna to receive both AM and FM broadcast signals. This antenna is a removable type. To re- move the antenna, turn the antenna coun- terclockwise. To install the antenna, turn the antenna clockwise.

1FEATURES OF YOUR HYUNDAI 112

CAUTION:

o Be sure to remove the antenna before washing the car in an automatic car wash or it may be damaged.

o Before entering a place with a low height clearance, be sure to adjust the roof antenna low.

o In some vehicles, the antenna can be

folded into only front position.

o When reinstalling your antenna, it is important that it is fully tightened to ensure proper reception.

2 DRIVING YOUR HYUNDAI

WARNING: ENGINE EXHAUST CAN BE DANGEROUS!

C010A02JM-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 tail gate 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.

RISK OF ROLLOVER

! WARNING:

o The 2WD Tucson is not designed for off-road use. The 4WD Tucson is de- signed primarily for use on paved roads. However, occasional use in off-highway conditions such as es- tablished unpaved roads and non- challenging off-road trails is allowed. The 4WD Tucson is not designed for blazing new trails, challenging off-road conditions, or unpaved hill climbing. Exceeding the conditions that were intended for the vehicle's primary design may result in injury or death. o Utility vehicles have a significantly higher rollover rate than other types of vehicles.

DRIVING YOUR HYUNDAI

! WARNING:

Your vehicle is equipped with tires de- signed to provide for safe ride and han- dling capability. Do not use a size and type of tire and wheel that is different from the one that is originally installed on your vehicle. It can affect the safety and performance of your vehicle, which could lead to han- dling failure or rollover and serious in- jury. 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 equip your vehicle with any tire/wheel combination not recom- mended by Hyundai for off-road driving, you should not use these tires for high- way driving.

WARNING:

o Utility vehicle have higher ground clearance and a narrower track to make them capable of performing in a wide variety of off-road applications. Specific design characteristics give them a higher center of gravitiy than ordinary cars. An advantage of the higher ground clearance is a better view of the road allowing you to antici- pate problem. They are not designed for cornering at the same speeds as conventional 2-wheel drive vehicles any more than low-slung sports cars are designed to perform satisfacto- rily under off-road conditions. If at all possible, avoid sharp turns or abrupt maneuvers. As with other vehicles of this type, failure to operate this ve- hicle correctly may result in loss of control or vehicle rollover.

o In a rollover crash, an unbelted per- son is significantly more likely to die than a person wearing a seat belt.

STARTING

C050A01A-AAT

C050B02JM-AAT

Normal Conditions: The Starting Procedure:

1. Insert key, and fasten the seat belt. 2. Depress the clutch pedal fully and place the gearshift lever (manual transaxle) in neutral or the selector lever (auto- matic 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 starting the engine.

C050A01E-1

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 odor- less and can cause serious injury or death.

WARNING:

Be sure that the clutch is fully depressed when starting a manual transaxle ve- hicle. Your manual transaxle equipped vehicle will not start unless the clutch pedal is fully depressed.

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 at- tempts to protect the starter from over- heating.

WARNING:

Always fully depress the brake pedal before and while shifting out of the "P" Park position into another position to avoid inadvertent motion of the vehicle which could injure persons in or around the car.

DRIVING YOUR HYUNDAI

C070B02A-AAT

Using the Clutch The clutch should be pressed all the way to the floor before shifting, then released slowly. The clutch pedal should always be fully returned to the original position. Do not rest your foot on the clutch pedal while driving. This can cause unnecessary 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 re- peatedly.

OPERATING THE MANUAL TRANSAXLE

C070A02A-AAT

HJM3017
Your Hyundai's manual transaxle has a conventional shift pattern. This shift pat- tern is imprinted on the shift knob. The transaxle is fully synchronized in all for- ward gears so shifting to either a higher or a lower gear is easily accomplished.

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 posi- tion.

o During cold weather, shifting may be difficult until the transaxle lubricant has warmed up. This is normal and not harmful 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) posi- tion and release the clutch. Press the clutch pedal 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 premature wear of the transaxle shift forks.

CAUTION:

When downshifting from fifth gear to fourth gear, caution should be taken not to inadvertently press the gear 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 cause engine damage.

C070D04O-AAT

Good Driving Practices o Never take the car out of gear and coast down a hill. This is extremely hazard- ous. Always leave the car in gear.

o Don't "ride" the brakes. This can cause them to overheat and malfunction. In- stead, 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 con- trol 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 vehicle speed can cause the drive wheels to lose traction and the vehicle to go out of control.

o Optimum vehicle performance and economy is obtained by smoothly de- pressing and releasing the accelerator pedal.

! 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 occu- pant.

o Avoid high speeds when cornering or

turning.

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

o The risk of rollover is greatly in- creased if you lose control of your vehicle at highway speeds.

o Loss of control often occurs if two or more wheels drop off the roadway and the driver oversteers to reenter the roadway.

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

o Never exceed posted speed limits.

NOTE:

Depress the brake pedal and push the button when shifting. Push the button when shifting. 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 nor- mal condition, and the shifting sequence will adjust after shifts are cycled a few times by the T.C.M (Transaxle Control Module).

DRIVING YOUR HYUNDAI

C090A01JM

CAUTION:

Never shift into "R" or "P" position while the vehicle is moving.

The indicator lights in the instrument clus- ter indicate the selector lever position when the ignition is switched "ON". During "D" range operation, green lights indicate the gear currently in use.

OPERATING THE AUTOMATIC TRANSAXLE

C090A01O-GAT

HJM3018
The highly efficient Hyundai automatic transaxle has four forward speeds and one reverse speed. The individual speeds are selected automatically, 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 opera- tion, refer to "Sports Mode".

In the main gate, the selector lever has 4
positions, and is equipped with a button to avoid inadvertent selection.

2 DRIVING YOUR HYUNDAI 10

C090B02A-AAT

The function of each position is as follows:

o P (Park): Use to hold the vehicle in place when parked or while starting the engine. When- ever parking the car, apply the parking brake and shift the selector 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): Use for backing up the vehicle. Bring the car to a complete stop before shifting the selector lever to "R" position.

C090F01JM-GAT

Sports Mode

C090D02O-AAT

o N (Neutral): In the "N" position, the transaxle is in neu- tral, which means that no gears are en- gaged. 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.

C090E02O-AAT

o D (Drive): Use for normal driving. Bring the car to a complete stop before shifting the selector to "D" position. The transaxle will automati- cally shift through a four gear sequence.

HJM3020
Whether the vehicle is stationary or in motion, sports mode is selected by push- ing 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 backwards and forwards can make gear- shifts simple. 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 for- wards or backwards twice, it is possible to skip one gear, i.e. 1st to 3rd or 3rd to 1st.

!

CAUTION:

o In sports mode, The driver must ex- ecute shifts in accordance with pre- vailing road conditions, taking care to keep the engine speed below the red zone. 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. 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 forward gears can be selected. To select re- verse or park, move the selector le- ver to the "R" or "P" position as re- quired.

o In sports mode, downward shifts are made automatically when the vehicle slows down. When the vehicle stops, 1st gear is automatically selected.

o To maintain the required levels of ve- hicle performance and safety, the sys- tem may not execute certain gear- shifts when the selector lever is oper- ated.

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 driv- ing away on a slippery road. Push the selector lever to the -(DOWN) side to shift back to 1st gear.

C090H01L-GAT

NOTE: o For smooth and safe operation, de- press the brake pedal when shifting from "Neutral" 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", "D" position to "P" position. The vehicle must be fully stopped to avoid transaxle damage.

DRIVING YOUR HYUNDAI

C090I04L-GAT

CAUTION:

o Shift into "R", "D" and "P" position only when the vehicle has completely stopped.

o Do not accelerate the engine in re- verse or any of the forward positions with the brakes applied.

o Always apply the footbrake when shifting 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 tendency to roll backwards. Shifting the shift lever into 2nd gear while in Sport mode will help prevent the ve- hicle from rolling backwards.

o Check the automatic transaxle fluid level regularly, and add fluid as nec- essary.

o See the maintenance schedule for

the proper fluid recommendation.

!

CAUTION:

If your vehicle becomes stuck in snow, mud, sand, etc., then you may attempt to rock the vehicle free by moving it for- ward and backward. Do not attempt this procedure if people or objects are any- where near the vehicle. During the rock- ing operation the vehicle may suddenly move forward of backward as it becomes unstuck, causing injury to nearby people or damage to objects.

2 DRIVING YOUR HYUNDAI 12

C090N05O-AAT

Good Driving Practices o Never move the gear selector lever from "P" or "N" to any other position with the accelerator 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" or "D". 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.

o Do not "ride" the brakes. This can cause them to overheat and malfunction. In- stead, 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. Otherwise, the lower gear may not be engaged.

o Always use the parking brake. Do not depend on placing the transaxle in "P" to keep the car from moving.

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 vehicle speed can cause the drive wheels to lose traction and the vehicle to go out of control.

o Optimum vehicle performance and economy is obtained by smoothly de- pressing and releasing the accelerator pedal.

o Never exceed posted speed limits.

ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM (ABS)

C120A01JM-AAT

(If installed) The Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) is de- signed to prevent wheel lock-up during sudden braking or on hazardous road surfaces. The ABS control module moni- tors the wheel speed and controls the pressure applied to each brake. Thus, in emergency situations or on slick roads, ABS will increase vehicle control during braking.

NOTE: o A click sound may be heard in the engine compartment when the ve- hicle begins to move after the engine is started. These conditions are nor- mal and indicate that the anti-lock brake system / Traction Control Sys- tem / Electronic Stability Control is functioning properly.

o During ABS / TCS / ESC operation, a pulsation may be felt in the brake pedal when the brakes are applied. Also, a noise may be heard in the engine compartment while braking. These conditions are normal and indi- cate that the anti-lock brake system / Traction Control System / Electronic Stability Control System is function- ing properly.

! WARNING:

ABS / TCS / ESC will not prevent acci- dents due to improper or dangerous driv- ing maneuvers. Even though vehicle control is improved during emergency braking, always maintain a safe distance between you and objects ahead. Vehicle speeds should always be reduced dur- ing extreme road conditions. The braking distance for cars equipped with an anti-lock braking system / TCS / ESC may be longer than for those with- out it in the following road conditions. During these conditions the vehicle should be driven at reduced speeds:

o Rough, gravel or snow-covered

roads.

o With tire chains installed. o On roads where the road surface is pitted or has different surface height.

The safety features of an ABS / TCS / ESC equipped vehicle should not be tested by high speed driving or corner- ing. This could endanger the safety of yourself or others.

TRACTION CONTROL SYSTEM (TCS)

C300A03Y-GAT

(If installed)

13

C300A01JM-U

On slippery road surfaces, the traction control system (TCS) limits the drive wheels from spinning excessively, thus helping the car to accelerate. It also helps to pro- vide sufficient driving force and steering performance as the car turns.

SLIP Control Limits the drive wheels from spinning ex- cessively during starting or while making accelerated turns on slippery roads to avoid losing the driving force of the front wheels.

2 DRIVING YOUR HYUNDAI 14

Driving Hints TCS does not actively apply brakes. Be sure to decelerate the car sufficiently be- fore entering curves.

CAUTION:

When the TCS indicator blinks, SLIP control function has been activated. It also means that the road is slippery or your car is accelerating excessively. In this situation, gently release foot pres- sure from the accelerator pedal and maintain moderate speed.

WARNING:

Traction control is a driving aid; all nor- mal precautions for driving in inclement weather and on slippery driving surfaces should be observed.

C310B02O-AAT

TCS ON/OFF Mode When the TCS is operating, the TCS indi- cator in the instrument cluster will blink. If you turn the system off by pressing the TCS switch, the TCS-OFF indicator will come on and stay on. In the TCS-OFF mode, the SLIP control will be deactivated. Adjust you driving accordingly. To turn the system back on, press the switch again. The TCS-OFF indicator should go off.

NOTE: 1) The TCS mode will automatically be turned ON after the engine is turned off and restarted.

2) When the traction control system is operating properly, you can feel a slight pulsation in the vehicle. This is only the effect of brake control and indicates nothing unusual.

3) When the engine starts, a click may be heard from the engine compart- ment; this is the sound of the traction control being checked.

4) When moving out of the mud or fresh snow, pressing the accelerator pedal may not cause the engine speed to increase due to TCS operation.

C310D01JM-AAT

Indicators and Warning The indicators should illuminate when the ignition key is turned to ON or START but should go out after approximately three seconds. If the indicators do not illuminate, or the TCS or TCS-OFF indicator does not go out after 3 seconds, have the system checked by an authorized dealer.

Should there be any unusual conditions in the TCS System while driving, TCS-OFF indicator illuminates as a warning. If TCS-OFF indicator illuminates, pull your car to a safe place and stop the engine. Then, start the engine again to check if the TCS-OFF indicator goes out.

If the indicator remains lit even after the engine has been started, have your car checked by an authorized Hyundai dealer.

NOTE: When the TCS-OFF indicator illuminates, traction control is automatically deacti- vated.

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC) SYSTEM

C310A03JM-AAT

(If installed)

DRIVING YOUR HYUNDAI

15

CAUTION:

Driving with varying tire or wheel size may cause the ESC system to malfunc- tion. When replacing tires, make sure they are the same size as your original tires.

WARNING:

Never drive too fast for the road condi- tions or too quickly when cornering. Elec- tronic stability control (ESC) will not pre- vent accidents. Excessive speed in turns, abrupt maneuvers and hydroplan- ing on wet surfaces can still result in serious accidents. Only a safe and at- tentive driver can prevent accidents by avoiding maneuvers that cause the ve- hicle to lose traction. Even with ESC installed, always follow all the normal precautions for driving - including driv- ing at safe speeds for the conditions.

C310A01JM-U The Electronic Stability Control (ESC) sys- tem is designed to stabilize the vehicle during cornering manuevers. ESC checks where you are steering and where the vehicle is actually going. ESC applies the brakes at individual wheels and intervenes in the engine management system to sta- bilize the vehicle. The Electronic Stability Control (ESC) sys- tem is an electronic system designed to help the driver maintain vehicle control under adverse conditions. It is not a substi- tute for safe driving practices. Factors in- cluding speed, road conditions and driver steering input can all affect whether ESC will be effective in preventing a loss of control. It is still your responsibility to drive and corner at reasonable speeds and to leave a sufficient margin of safety.

C310B01JM-AAT

ESC ON/OFF Mode When the ESC is operating, the ESC indi- cator in the instrument cluster will blink. If you turn the system off by pressing the ESC switch, the ESC-OFF indicator will come on and stay on. In the ESC-OFF mode, the stability control will be deacti- vated. Adjust your driving accordingly. To turn the system back on, press the switch again. The ESC-OFF indicator should go off.

NOTE: The ESC mode will automatically be turned ON after the engine is turned off and restarted.

2 DRIVING YOUR HYUNDAI 16

C310D01JM-AAT

Indicators and Warning The indicators should illuminate when the ignition key is turned to ON or START but should go out after three seconds. If the indicators do not illuminate, or the ESC or ESC-OFF indicator does not go out after 3 seconds, have the vehicle checked by an authorized dealer.

Should there be any unusual conditions in the device while driving, ESC-OFF indica- tor illuminates as a warning. If ESC-OFF indicator illuminates, pull your car to a safe place and stop the engine. Then, start the engine again to check if the ESC-OFF indicator goes out.

If the indicator remains lit even after the engine has been started, have your car checked by an authorized Hyundai dealer.

FULL-TIME 4WD OPERATION

C350A02JM-AAT

(If installed) Engine power can be delivered to all wheels. Full-time 4WD is useful when good traction is required, such as, when driving on slippery, wet or snow-covered roads and when moving out of mud. Your vehicle is not designed for challenging off-road use. Full-time 4WD vehicles are designed primarily to improve traction and perfor- mance on paved roads and highways in wet and/or slippery conditions. Occasional off-road use such as established unpaved roads and trails is considered normal use. It is always important when traveling off- highway that the driver carefully reduce their speed to a level that does not exceed
