DRIVING YOUR HYUNDAI  2- 17
o  Remember, your  car does  not re-
quire  extended warm-up. As soon
as the engine is running smoothly,
you  can drive  away. In  very  cold
weather,however,giveyourengine
a slightly longer warm-up period.
o  Don't "lug" or "over-rev" the engine.
Lugging is driving too slowly in too
high a gear resulting  in the engine
bucking. If this happens to you, shift
to a lower gear.
Over-revving is  racing  the engine
beyond its  safe limit.  This can  be
avoided  by shifting  at the  recom-
mended speeds.
o  Use your air conditioning sparingly.
The air conditioning system is oper-
ated by  the engine power so  your
fuel economy is reduced when you
use it.

WINTER MOTORING
NOTE:
The anti-freeze solution contains a
corrosion inhibitor to prevent deg-
radation of the aluminum castings
contained within the engine. There-
fore, never,  drain  the system  and
refill with water only.
The onset of winter conditions subject
motor  vehicles  to  greater operating
demands.  Therefore,   the  following
suggestions will assist in  maintaining
peak performance and reliability  dur-
ing these periods:
In addition,  anti-freeze solution must
ALWAYS  be used  in  vehicles  fitted
with  air conditioning,  to  prevent the
heater matrix from  freezing and sub-
sequently bursting with  the refrigera-
tion system in use.

Electrical System
Winter conditions impose  severe de-
mandsuponvehicleelectricalsystems,
particularly the  charging  circuit. The
battery  condition   and  performance
along with the alternator performance
and  drive  belt  condition  should  be
