Use Approved Anti-Freeze in
Window
Washer System
To keep the water in the window washer
system from freezing, add an approved
anti-freeze solution in accordance with
instructions on the container. Window
washer anti-freeze is available from
Hyundai dealers and most auto parts
outlets. Do not use engine coolant or
other types of anti-freeze as these
may damage the finish.

Don't Let Your Parking Brake
Freeze
Under some conditions your parking
brake can freeze in the engaged posi-
tion. This is most likely to happen
when there is an accumulation of snow
or ice around or near the rear brakes or
if the brakes are wet. If there is a risk
the parking brake may freeze, apply it
only temporarily while you put the gear
selector lever in "P" (automatic) or in
first or reverse gear (manual transaxle)
and block the rear wheels so the car
cannot roll. Then release the parking
brake.

Don't Let Ice and Snow Accumu-
late Underneath
Under some conditions, snow and ice
can build up under the fenders and
interfere with the steering. When driv-
ing in severe winter conditions where
this may happen, you should periodi-
cally check underneath the car to be
sure the movement of the front wheels
and the steering components is not
obstructed.

Carry Emergency Equipment
Depending on the severity of the
weather where you drive your car, you
should carry appropriate emergency
equipment. Some of the items you
may want to carry include tire chains,
tow straps or chains, flashlight, emer-
gency flares, sand, a shovel, jumper
cables, a window scraper, gloves,
ground cloth, coveralls, a blanket, etc.

HIGH SPEED MOTORING
Pre-Trip Inspections
1. Tires:
Adjust the tire inflation pressures to
specification. Low tire inflation pres-
sures will result in overheating and
possible failure of the tires.
Avoid using worn or damaged tires
which may result in reduced traction or
tire failure.
NOTE:
Never exceed the maximum tire in-
flation pressure shown on the tires.
2. Fuel, engine coolant and engine oil:
High speed travel consumes 1.5 times
more fuel than urban motoring. Do not
forget to check both engine coolant
and engine oil.
3. Drive belt:
A loose or damaged drive belt may
result in overheating of the engine.
