more frequent maintenance is re-
quired (see Section 5 for details).
o Keep your car clean. For maximum
service, your Hyundai should be
kept clean and free of corrosive
materials. It is especially important
that mud, dirt, ice, etc. not be al-
lowed to accumulate on the under-
side of the car. This extra weight
can result in increased fuel con-
sumptionandalsocontributetocor-
rosion.
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, shift to a
lower gear. Over-revving is racing
the engine beyond its safe limit.
This can be avoided by shifting at
the recommended speeds.
o Use your air conditioning sparingly.
The air conditioning system is oper-
ated by engine power so your fuel
economy is reduced when you use
it.
