2010 Hyundai Elantra Owners Manual

Driving your vehicle
To  shift into  reverse, rest  the  lever in
neutral for at least 3 seconds after your
car is  completely stopped. Then move
the lever into the reverse position.
CAUTION
WARNING
When   downshifting    from   fifth
gear    to   fourth    gear,   caution
should  be  taken not  to  inadver-
tently  press  the  gear shift  lever
sideways  in such  a  manner that
second gear  is  engaged. Such  a
drastic downshift  may cause  the
engine  speed to  increase  to  the
point   that  the   tachometer   will
enter  the   red-zone.  Such   over-
revving of  the engine may  possi-
bly cause engine damage.
Before  leaving   the   driver’s  seat,
always  set the  parking  brake fully
and shut the engine off. Then make
sure the transaxle is shifted into 1st
gear when the vehicle  is parked on
a level  or uphill  grade, and shifted
into   R  (Reverse)   on   a  downhill
grade.   Unexpected    and   sudden
vehicle   movement   can   occur   if
these precautions  are not followed
in the order identified.
•  During  cold  weather, shifting  may  be
difficult until the transaxle lubricant has
warmed  up.  This  is  normal  and  not
harmful to the transaxle.
If you've come to  a complete stop and
it's hard to shift into 1st or R (Reverse),
put the  shift lever  in N  (Neutral) posi-
tion and  release the  clutch. Press the
clutch pedal back down, and then  shift
into 1st or R (Reverse) gear position.
Do  not   downshift  more  than   2
gears or downshift the gear when
the   engine  is   running   at  high
speed   (5,000   RPM   or  higher).
Such a downshifting may damage
the engine.
CAUTION
To  avoid  premature  clutch  wear
and  damage,  do  not  drive   with
your  foot  resting  on   the  clutch
pedal. Also,  don’t use  the clutch
to hold the vehicle stopped on an
uphill  grade, while  waiting  for  a
traffic light, etc.
Do  not  use  the  shift  lever  as  a
handrest  during  driving,  as  this
can  result  in premature  wear  of
the transaxle shift forks.
