WARNING - ENGINE EXHAUST CAN BE DANGEROUS!

Engine exhaust fumes can be extremely dangerous. If, at any time, you smell exhaust fumes inside the vehicle, open the win- dows immediately.

• Do not inhale exhaust fumes.

Exhaust fumes contain carbon monoxide, a colorless, odorless gas that can cause unconsciousness and death by asphyxia- tion.

(cid:129) 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 vehicle, have the exhaust system checked as soon as possible by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.

(cid:129) 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 vehicle out.

(cid:129) 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 vehicle, 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 tailgate 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.

CALIFORNIA PROPOSI- TION 65 WARNING

Engine exhaust and a wide variety of automobile components and parts, including components found in the interior furnishings in a vehi- cle, contain or emit chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects and reproductive harm. In addition, cer- tain 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 DRIVING Before entering vehicle • Be sure that all windows, outside mir-

ror(s), and outside lights are clean.

(cid:129) Check the condition of the tires. (cid:129) Check under the vehicle for any sign of

leaks.

(cid:129) Be sure there are no obstacles behind

you if you intend to back up.

Necessary inspections Fluid levels, such as engine oil, engine coolant, brake fluid, and washer fluid should be checked on a regular basis, with the exact interval depending on the fluid. Further details are provided in sec- tion 7, “Maintenance”.

Before starting (cid:129) Close and lock all doors. (cid:129) Position the seat so that all controls are

easily reached.

Driving your vehicle

(cid:129) During cold weather, shifting may be difficult until the transaxle lubricant has warmed up. This is normal and not harmful to the transaxle.

(cid:129) 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 back down, and then shift into 1st or R (Reverse) gear position.

CAUTION

(cid:129) To avoid premature clutch wear and damage, do not drive with your foot resting on the clutch pedal. Also, don’t use the clutch to hold the vehicle stopped on an uphill grade, while waiting for a traffic light,etc.

(cid:129) Do not use the shift lever as a handrest during driving, as this can result in premature wear of the transaxle shift forks.

(cid:129) When operating the clutch pedal, press the clutch pedal down fully. If you don't press the clutch pedal fully,the clutch may be damaged or noise may occur.

WARNING

Before leaving the driver’s seat, always set the parking brake fully and shut the engine off. Then make sure the transaxle is shifted into 1st gear when the vehicle is parked on a level or uphill grade, and shifted into R (Reverse) on a downhill grade. Unexpected and sudden vehicle movement can occur if these precautions are not followed in the order identified.

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 released while driving. Do not rest your foot on the clutch pedal while driv- ing. This can cause unnecessary wear. Do not partially engage the clutch to hold the vehicle on an incline. This causes unnecessary wear. Use the foot brake or parking brake to hold the vehicle on an incline. Do not operate the clutch pedal rapidly and repeatedly. This vehicle is equipped with a Hill-start Assist Control(HAC) that will hold the vehicle in place for about 2 seconds when the brake is released on a sleep enough uphill grade (about 8° incline). Practice releasing the brake and apply- ing the throttle with your right foot while releasing the clutch with your left foot, so you learn how the HAC works.

WARNING

The HAC is activated only for about 2 seconds, so when the vehicle is starting off always depress the accelerator pedal.

Downshifting When you must slow down in heavy traf- fic or while driving up steep hills, down- shift before the engine starts to labor. Downshifting reduces the chance of stalling and gives better acceleration when you again need to increase your speed. When the vehicle is traveling down steep hills, downshifting helps maintain safe speed and prolongs brake life. This vehicle is geared for improved fuel economy and may need to be driven in a lower gear when driving up hills or into high winds. Using top gear is best for fuel economy, but you should use the best gear for the road conditions.

Good driving practices (cid:129) Never take the vehicle out of gear and coast down a hill. This is extremely hazardous. Always leave the vehicle in gear.

(cid:129) 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 down the vehicle.

(cid:129) Slow down before shifting to a lower gear. This will help avoid over-revving the engine, which can cause damage. (cid:129) Slow down when you encounter cross winds. This gives you much better con- trol of your vehicle.

(cid:129) Be sure the vehicle is completely stopped before you attempt to shift into reverse. The transaxle can be dam- aged if you do not. To shift into reverse, depress the clutch, move the shift lever to neutral, then shift to the reverse position.

(cid:129) 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.

Driving your vehicle

WARNING

(cid:129) Always buckle-up! In a collision, an unbelted occupant is signifi- cantly more likely to be seriously injured or killed than a properly belted occupant.

(cid:129) Avoid high speeds when corner-

ing or turning.

(cid:129) Do not make quick steering wheel movements, such as sharp lane changes or fast, sharp turns. (cid:129) The risk of rollover is greatly increased if you lose control of your vehicle at highway speeds. (cid:129) Loss of control often occurs if two or more wheels drop off the roadway and the driver over- steers to reenter the roadway.

(cid:129) In the event your vehicle leaves the roadway, do not steer sharply. Instead, slow down before pulling back into the travel lanes.

(cid:129) Never exceed posted speed lim-

Driving your vehicle

CAUTION

The transaxle may be damaged if you shift into P (Park) while the vehicle is in motion.

N (Neutral) The wheels and transaxle are not engaged. The vehicle will roll freely even on the slightest incline unless the parking brake or service brakes are applied.

D (Drive) This is the normal forward driving posi- tion. The transaxle will automatically shift through a 6-gear sequence, providing the best fuel economy and power.

For extra power when passing another vehicle or climbing grades, depress the accelerator fully, at which time the transaxle will automatically downshift to the next lower gear (or gears, as appro- priate).

✽✽ NOTICE Always come to a complete stop before shifting into D (Drive).

R (Reverse) Use this position to drive the vehicle backward.

CAUTION

Always come to a complete stop before shifting into or out of R (Reverse); you may damage the transaxle if you shift into R while the vehicle is in motion, except as explained in “Rocking the vehicle” in this section.

WARNING

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 procedure if people or objects are anywhere near the vehicle. During the rocking operation the vehicle may suddenly move forward or backward as it becomes unstuck, causing injury or damage to nearby people or objects.

Moving up a steep grade from a stand- ing start To move up a steep grade from a stand- ing start, depress the brake pedal, shift the shift lever to D (Drive). Release the brake pedal and gradually press the accelerator pedal. The Hill-start Assist Control(HAC) will hold the vehicle brakes for up to 2 sec- onds on grades steeper than 8° uphill.

WARNING

The HAC is activated only for about 2 seconds, so when the vehicle is starting off always depress the accelerator pedal.

ALL WHEEL DRIVE (AWD) (IF EQUIPPED) Engine power can be delivered to all front and rear wheels for maximum traction. AWD is useful when extra traction is required on road, such as, when driving on slippery, muddy, wet, or snow-covered roads. These vehicles are not designed for challenging off-road use. Occasional off-road use such as established unpaved roads and trails are OK. It is always important when traveling off-high- way that the driver carefully reduces the speed to a level that does not exceed the safe operating speed for those condi- tions. In general, off-road conditions pro- vide less traction and braking effective- ness than normal road conditions. The driver must be especially alert to avoid driving on slopes which tilt the vehicle to either side. These factors must be carefully consid- ered when driving off-road. Keeping the vehicle in contact with the driving surface and under control in these conditions is always the driver's responsibility for the safety of him/herself and his or her pas- sengers.

WARNING - Off road driving This vehicle is designed primarily for on road use although it can oper- ate effectively off road. However, it was not designed to drive in chal- lenging off-road conditions. Driving in conditions that exceed the vehi- cle's intended design or the driver's experience in severe injury or death.

Tight corner brake effect

CAUTION - AWD

When turning sharply on a paved road at low speed while in four- wheel drive,steering control will be difficult.

Tight corner brake effect is a unique characteristic of all-wheel drive vehicles caused by the difference in tire rotation at the all wheels and the zero-degree align- ment of the front wheels and suspension. Sharp turns at low speeds should be car- ried out with caution.

AWD LOCK

(cid:129) When driving in AWD AUTO mode, the vehicle operates sim- ilar to conventional 2WD vehicles under normal operating conditions. However, if the system determines that there is a need for the AWD mode, the engine’s driving power is dis- tributed to all four wheels automatically without driver inter- vention.

(cid:129) When driving on normal roads and pavement, the vehicle

moves similar to conventional 2WD vehicles.

(cid:129) This mode is used for climbing or descending sharp grades, off-road driving, driving on sandy and muddy roads, etc., to maximize traction.

(cid:129) This mode automatically begins to deactivate at speeds above 19 mph (30 km/h) and is shifted to AWD AUTO mode at speed above 25 mph (40 km/h). If the vehicle decelerates to speeds below 19 mph (30 km/h), however, the transfer mode is shifted into AWD LOCK mode again.

(Indicator light is not illuminated)

(Indicator light is

✽✽ NOTICE • When driving on normal roads, deactivate the AWD LOCK mode by pushing the AWD LOCK button (the indicator light goes off). Driving on normal roads with AWD LOCK mode(especially, when cornering) may cause mechanical noise or vibration. The noise and vibration will disappear when the AWD LOCK mode is deactivated. Some parts of the power train may be dam- aged by prolonged driving with the noise and vibration.

• When the AWD LOCK mode is deactivated, a shock may be felt as the drive power is delivered entirely to the front wheels.

This shock is not a mechanical failure.

For safe all-wheel drive operation

WARNING - All-wheel driv-

ing

The conditions of on-road or off- road that demand all-wheel drive mean all functions of your vehicle are more exposed to extreme stress than under normal road con- ditions. Slow down and be ready for changes in the composition and traction of the surface under your tires. If you have any doubt about the safety of the conditions you are facing, stop and consider the best way to proceed. Do not exceed the ability of yourself or your vehicle to operate safely.

(cid:129) Do not try to drive in deep standing water or mud since such conditions can stall your engine and clog your exhaust pipes. Do not drive down steep hills since it requires extreme skill to maintain control of the vehicle.

HILL1
(cid:129) When you are driving up or down hills drive as straight as possible. Use extreme caution in going up or down steep hills, since you may flip your vehicle over depending on the grade, terrain and water/mud conditions.

Driving your vehicle

HILL2

WARNING - Hills

Driving across the contour of steep hills can be extremely dangerous. This danger can come from slight changes in the wheel angle which can destabilize the vehicle or, even if the vehicle is maintaining stabili- ty under power, it can lose that sta- bility if the vehicle stops its forward motion. Your vehicle may roll over without warning and without time for you to correct a mistake that could cause serious injury or death.

5 19

Driving your vehicle

(cid:129) You must consciously take the effort to learn how to corner in a AWD vehicle. Do not rely on your experience in con- ventional 2WD vehicles in choosing safe cornering speed in AWD mode. For starters, you must drive more slow- ly in AWD.

(cid:129) Drive carefully off-road because your vehicle may be damaged by rocks or roots of trees. Become familiar with the off-road conditions where you are going to drive before you begin driving.

WARNING - AWD

Reduce speed when you turn cor- ners. The center of gravity of AWD vehicles is higher than that of con- ventional 2WD vehicles, making them more likely to roll over when you turn corners too fast.

20

WARNING - Wind danger

If you are driving in heavy wind, the vehicle's higher center of gravity decreases your steering control capacity and requires you to drive more slowly.

(cid:129) If you need to drive in the water, stop your vehicle, set your transfer to the AWD LOCK mode and drive at less than 5 mph (8 km/h).

WARNING - Steering

wheel

Do not grab the inside of the steer- ing wheel when you are driving off- road. You may hurt your arm by a sudden steering maneuver or from steering wheel rebound due to impact with objects on the ground. You could lose control of the steer- ing wheel.

(cid:129) Always hold the steering wheel firmly

when you are driving off-road.

(cid:129) Make sure all passengers are wearing

seat belts.

WARNING - Driving

through water Drive slowly. If you are driving too fast in water, the water can get into the engine compartment and wet the ignition system, causing your vehicle to suddenly stop. If this happens and your vehicle is in a tilted position, your vehicle may roll over. Excessive water in the engine can cause irreversible engine damage, which is not covered under warran- ty.

✽✽ NOTICE • Do not drive in water if the level is higher than the bottom of the vehicle. • Check your brake condition once you are out of mud or water. Press the brake pedal several times as you move slowly until you feel normal braking forces return.

• Shorten your scheduled maintenance interval if you drive in off-road condi- tions such as sand, mud or water (see “Maintenance under severe usage conditions” in section 7). Always wash your vehicle thoroughly after off road use, especially cleaning the bottom of the vehicle.

• Since the driving torque is always applied to the 4 wheels the perform- ance of the AWD vehicle is greatly affected by the condition of the tires. Be sure to equip the vehicle with four tires of the same size and type.

• A full time four wheel drive vehicle cannot be towed by an ordinary tow truck. Make sure that the vehicle is placed on a flat bed truck for moving.
