DRIVING YOUR HYUNDAI
14
o Don't coast down hills with the car
out of gear. This is extremely haz-
ardous. Keep the car in gear at all
times, use the brakes to slow down,
then shift to a lower gear so that
engine braking will help you main-
tain a safe speed.
o Don't "ride" the brake pedal. Rest-
ing your foot on the brake pedal
while driving can be dangerous be-
cause it can result in the brakes
overheating and losing their effec-
tiveness. It also increases the wear
of the brake components.
o If a tire goes flat while you are
driving, apply the brakes gently and
keep the car pointed straight ahead
while you slow down. When you are
moving slowly enough for it to be
safe to do so, pull off the road and
stop in a safe place.
o If your car is equipped with an auto-
matic transaxle, don't let your car
creep forward. To avoid creeping
forward, keep your foot on the brake
pedal when the car is stopped.
o Use caution when parking on a hill.
Engage the parking brake and place
the gear selector lever in "P" (auto-
matic transaxle) or in first or reverse
gear (manual transaxle). If your car
is facing downhill, turn the front
wheels into the curb to help keep the
car from rolling. If your car is facing
uphill, turn the front wheels away
from the curb to help keep the car
from rolling.
If there is no curb or if it is required
by other conditions to keep the car
from rolling, block the wheels.
o Under some conditions your park-
ing brake can freeze in the engaged
position. This is most likely to hap-
pen 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 that the parking
brake may freeze, apply it only tem-
porarily while you put the gear se-
lector 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.
o Do not hold the vehicle on the up-
grade with the accelerator pedal.
This can cause the transmission to
overheat. Always use the brake
pedal or parking brake.
ELECTRONIC STABILITY
PROGRAM (ESP)
C310A01JM-AAT
(If installed)
The Electronic Stability Program (ESP)
system is designed to stabilize the
vehicle during cornering manuevers.
ESP checks where you are steering
and where the vehicle is actually going.
ESP applies the brakes at individual
wheels and intervenes in the engine
management system to stabilize the
vehicle.
The Electronic Stability Program (ESP)
system is an electronic system de-
signed to help the driver maintain ve-
hicle control under adverse conditions.
It is not a substitute for safe driving
practices.
