DRIVING YOUR HYUNDAI
When shifting into reverse gear, pull the miss-

position. (B Type : 6 speed type)
NOTE:

RECOMMENDED SHIFT POINTS
The shift points as shown below are recom-
mended for optimum fuel economy and perfor-
mance.
o
During cold weather, shifting may be dif-
ficult until the transaxle lubricant has
warmed up. This is normal and not harm-
ful to the transaxle.
CAUTION:
o Do not attempt to engage reverse gear
when the car is in motion.
o To avoid damaging the selector mecha-
nism, do not use the gear shift lever as a
hand rest. Release the lever immediately
the shift is completed.
o To avoid premature clutch wear, do not
use the clutch pedal as a foot rest, and do
not hold the vehicle on a gradient using
the clutch.
o Ensure that the engine is not over-revved
by upshifting before the tachometer needle
enters the red zone.
o Do not coast with the shift lever at the
neutral position.
o When descending long gradients, make
use of the engine braking to assist the
footbrake to avoid brake fade or over-
heating.
o When slippery conditions are encountered,
increased caution should be exercised
when gear changing, braking or ac-
celerating. Abrupt changes in speed may
cause a loss of traction or control of the
vehicle.
o
If you 've come to a complete stop and
it's hard to shift into 1

driving.
This can cause unnecessary wear.
Do not partially engage the clutch to hold the
car on an incline. This causes unnecessary
