Good Driving Practices
!
Avoid  high cornering  speeds.
Do not make quick steering wheel move-
ments,  such as  sharp lane  changes  or
fast,  sharp turns.
Always wear  your seat  belts.
The risk of rollover is greatly increased if
you lose control of your vehicle  at high-
way  speeds.
Loss  of control  often  occurs  if two  or
more wheels  drop off  the  roadway and
the driver oversteers to reenter the road-
way.
In the event your vehicle leaves the road-
way, do not steer  sharply. Instead, slow
down before pulling back  into the travel
lanes.
In a collision crash,  un unbelted person
is significantly more  likely to die  than a
person wearing  a  seatbelt.
ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM
(Ifinstalled)
WARNING:
o
Never move the gear selector lever from "P"
or "N" to any other position with the accelera-
tor pedal  depressed.
o
o
The Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) is designed
to prevent wheel lock-up during sudden braking
or on hazardous road surfaces. The  ABS con-
trol module monitors the wheel speed and con-
trols the pressure applied to each brake. Thus,
in emergency situations or on slick roads, ABS
will increase vehicle  control during braking.
o
o
o
Never move the gear selector lever into "P"
when the vehicle is in motion.
Be sure the car is completely stopped before
you attempt to shift  into "R".
Never take  the  car out  of gear  and  coast
down a hill. This may be extremely hazard-
ous.  Always  leave  the  car  in gear  when
moving.

NOTE:
During  ABS  operation,  a  slight  pulsation
may  be  felt  in the  brake  pedal  when  the
brakes  are applied.  Also,  a noise  may  be
heard  in  the   engine  compartment   while
braking. These  conditions are  normal  and
indicate that  the anti-lock  brake system  is
functioning  properly.
o
Do  not "ride"  the  brakes. This  can  cause
them to overheat and malfunction.  Instead,
when you are driving down a long hill,  slow
down and shift to a lower gear. When you do
this, engine braking will help  slow the car.
Slow down before  shifting to a  lower gear.
Otherwise, the  lower gear  may not be  en-
gaged.
Always use  the parking  brake. Do  not de-
pend on placing the transaxle in "P" to keep
the car  from moving.
Exercise extreme caution when driving on a
slippery surface. Be especially careful when
braking, accelerating or shifting gears. On a
slippery  surface, an  abrupt change  in  ve-
hicle speed  can cause the  drive wheels to
lose  traction and  the  vehicle to  go  out of
control.

WARNING:
ABS will  not prevent  accidents due  to im-
proper  or  dangerous  driving  maneuvers.
Even  though  vehicle  control  is  improved
during  emergency  braking,  always  main-
tain a  safe  distance between  you and  ob-
jects ahead. Vehicle speeds  should always
be  reduced   during  extreme  road   condi-
tions.
The  braking  distance   for  cars  equipped
with  an  anti-lock braking  system  may  be
longer   than  for  those   without   it  in  the
following  road  conditions.

Just bought the 2003 Sonata on Craig's List and easily found a manual to assist with the "trial & error" method. Thanks.
