Shift-lock override
If the shift lever cannot be moved from
the P (Park) or N (Neutral) position into R
(Reverse) position with the brake pedal
depressed, continue depressing the
brake, then do the following:
•
Do not "ride" the brakes. This can
cause them to overheat and malfunc-
tion. 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 down the vehicle.
Slow down before shifting to a lower
gear. Otherwise, the lower gear may
not be engaged.
1.
Carefully remove the cap (1) covering
the shift-lock override access hole.
•
2.
Insert a screwdriver (or key) into the
access hole and press down on the
screwdriver (or key).
• Always use the parking brake. Do not
depend on placing the transaxle in P
(Park) to keep the vehicle from moving.
3.
4.
Move the shift lever.
Have your vehicle inspected by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer immedi-
ately.
•
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 vehicle speed can
cause the drive wheels to lose traction
and the vehicle to go out of control.
