Automatic Transmission - Hyundai H-1 2005 Owner's Manual

o Slow down before shifting to a lower
gear.
This will help avoid over-running 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 vehicle is completely
stopped before you attempt to shift
into reverse. The transmission 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 re-
verse position.
o Exercise extreme caution when driv-
ing on a slippery surface. Be espe-
cially careful when braking, acceler-
ating or shifting gears.
On a slippery surface, an abrupt
change in engine speed can cause
the drive wheels to lose traction and
the vehicle to go out of control.
!
WARNING:
o Avoid high cornering speeds.
o Do not make quick steering wheel
movements, such as sharp lane
changes or fast, sharp turns.
o Always wear your seat belts.
In a collision crash, an unbelted
person is significantly more likely
to die than a person wearing a
seatbelt.
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.
Instead, slow down before pull-
ing back into the travel lanes.
o Never exceed posted speed lim-
its.
