BREAKING IN YOUR NEW HYUNDAI

During the First 1,200 Miles (2,000 Km)
No formal "break-in" procedure is required
with your new Hyundai. However, you can
contribute to the economical operation and
durability of your Hyundai by observing the
following recommendations during the first
1,200 miles (2,000 km).
o Don't drive faster than 55 MPH (88 km/h).
o While driving, keep your engine speed
(rpm, or revolutions per minute) between
2,000 rpm and 4,000 rpm.
o Use moderate acceleration. Don't start
quickly or depress the accelerator pedal
fully.
o For the first 200 miles (300 km), try to
avoid hard stops.
o Don't lug the engine (in other words, don't
drive so slowly in too high a gear that the
engine "bucks"-shift to a lower gear).
o Whether going fast or slow, vary your
speed from time to time.
o Don't let the engine idle longer than 3
minutes at one time.
o Don't tow a trailer during the first 1,200
miles (2,000 km) of operation.

KEYS

For greater convenience, the same key oper-
ates all the locks in your Hyundai. However,
because the doors can be locked without a
key, carrying a spare key is recommended in
case you accidentally lock one key inside the
car.

Record Your Key Number

B030A01B
A code number is stamped on the number plate
that came with the keys to your Hyundai. This
key number plate should not be left with the
keys but kept in a safe place, not in the vehicle.
The key number should also be recorded in a
place where it can be found in an emergency.
If you need additional keys, or if you should lose
your keys, your authorized Hyundai dealer can
make new keys if you can supply the key
number.
