2016 Hyundai Elantra Coupe Owners Manual

Driving your vehicle
Good driving practices
•  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
may cause  loss  of vehicle  control
resulting in an accident
CAUTION
To   prevent    damage    to    the
engine, clutch and transaxle:
When  downshifting  from  5th
gear to 4th gear, be careful not
to inadvertently push the shift
lever  sideways  engaging  the
2nd gear.  A drastic  downshift
may  cause the  engine  speed
to  increase  to the  point
tachometer will  enter the  red-
zone.
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,
clutch and the transaxle.
Never take  the vehicle out  of gear
and   coast  down   a  hill.   This  is
extremely dangerous.
Don't  "ride"  the  brakes. This  can
cause the brakes and related parts
to overheat and malfunction.
When you are driving  down a long
hill, slow down and  shift to a lower
gear. Engine braking will help slow
down the vehicle.
•  Slow  down   before  shifting   to  a
lower  gear.  This   will  help   avoid
over-revving the engine, which can
cause damage.
the
WARNING
Do  not  use   the  engine  brake
(shifting  from a  higher  gear to
lower gear)  rapidly  on slippery
roads.  The   vehicle    may  slip
causing an accident.
•  Slow  down  when  you  encounter
cross winds. This  gives you  much
better control of your vehicle.
Be  sure the  vehicle is  completely
stopped  before   you  shift  into   R
(Reverse)  to  prevent   damage  to
the transaxle.
