The higher the fan speed is, the more air is delivered. Pressing the "OFF" button turns off the fan. B670C01O This is used to select fresh outside air or recirculation inside air. To change the air intake control mode, (Fresh mode, Recirculation mode) push the control button. FRESH MODE ( ) : The indicator light on the button goes off when the air intake control is fresh mode. RECIRCULATION MODE ( ) : The indicator light on the button is illuminated when the air intake control is recirculation mode. With the "Fresh" mode selected, air enters the vehicle from the outside and is heated or cooled according to the function selected. With the "Recirculation" mode selected, air from within the passenger compartment will be drawn through the heating system and heated or cooled according to the function selected. NOTE: o It should be noted that prolonged opera- tion of the heating system in "recircula- tion" mode will give rise to fogging of the windshield and side windows and the air within the passenger compartment will become stale. In addition, prolonged use of the air conditioning with the "Re- circulation" mode selected may result in the air within the passenger compart- ment becoming excessively dry. o When the ignition switch is turned "ON" the air intake control will change to "FRESH" mode (regardless of switch position). This is normal operation. The air intake control operates in "AUTO" mode when turning the ignition to the "ON" position if the "AUTO" mode was used before shutting off the engine.

When selecting the "Floor-Defrost Level", the indicator light will come on and the air will be discharged through the windshield defroster nozzle, the floor vents, side defroster nozzle and side ventilator. B980F01O HSM120 When the "Defrost" button is pressed, the "Fresh" mode will be automatically selected and the air will be discharged through the windshield de- froster nozzle, side defroster nozzle and side ventilator. To assist in defrosting, the air conditioning will operate if ambient temperature is higher than 38.3°F(3.5°C) and automatically turns off if the ambient below 38.3°F(3.5°C). temperature drops B740D01Y-AAT Operation Tips FEATURES OF YOUR HYUNDAI 1- 83 o If the interior of the car is hot when you first get in, open the windows for a few minutes to expel the hot air. o When you are using the air conditioning system, keep all windows closed to keep hot air out. o When moving slowly, as in heavy traffic, shift to a lower gear. This increases engine speed, which in turn increases the speed of the air conditioning compressor. o On steep grades, turn the air conditioning off to avoid the possibility of the engine over- heating. o During winter months or in periods when the air conditioning is not used regularly, run the air conditioning once every month for a few minutes. This will help circulate the lubri- cants and keep your system in peak oper- ating condition. 1- 84 FEATURES OF YOUR HYUNDAI B750A02A-AAT STEREO SOUND SYSTEM How Car Audio Works FM reception Ionosphere AM reception Ionosphere FM radio station Mountains Unobstructed area Buildings B750A02L Obstructed area Iron bridges B750A03L AM broadcasts can be received at greater distances than FM broadcasts. This is because AM radio waves are transmitted at low frequen- cies. These long, low frequency radio waves can follow the curvature of the earth rather than travelling straight out into the atmosphere. In addition, they curve around obstructions so that they can provide better signal coverage. FM broadcasts are transmitted at high frequen- cies and do not bend to follow the earth's surface. Because of this, FM broadcasts gen- erally begin to fade at short distances from the station. Also, FM signals are easily affected by buildings, mountains, or other obstructions. These can result in certain listening conditions which might lead you to believe a problem exists with your radio. The following conditions are normal and do not indicate radio trouble: B750A01L AM and FM radio signals are broadcast from transmitter towers located around your city. They are intercepted by the radio antenna on your car. This signal is then received by the radio and sent to your car speakers. When a strong radio signal has reached your vehicle, the precise engineering of your audio system ensures high quality reproduction. However, in some cases the signal coming to your vehicle may not be strong and clear. This can be due to factors such as the distance from the radio station, closeness of other strong radio stations or the presence of buildings, bridges or other large obstructions in the area. FEATURES OF YOUR HYUNDAI 1- 85 B750B02Y-AAT Using a cellular phone or a two-way radio When a cellular phone is used inside the vehicle, noise may be produced from the audio equip- ment. This does not mean that something is wrong with the audio equipment. In such a case, use the cellular phone at a place as far as possible from the audio equipment. CAUTION: When using a communication system such a cellular phone or a radio set inside the vehicle, a separate external antenna must be fitted. When a cellular phone or a radio set is used with an internal antenna alone, it may interfere with the vehicle's electrical system and adversely affect safe operation of the vehicle. WARNING: Don't use a cellular phone when you are driving, you must stop at a safe place to use a cellular phone. B750A04L o Fading - As your car moves away from the radio station, the signal will weaken and sound will begin to fade. When this occurs, we suggest that you select another stronger station. o Flutter/Static - Weak FM signals or large obstructions between the transmitter and your radio can disturb the signal causing static or fluttering noises to occur. Reducing the treble level may lessen this effect until the disturbance clears. B750A05L o Station Swapping - As an FM signal weak- ens, another more powerful signal near the same frequency may begin to play. This is because your radio is designed to lock onto the clearest signal. If this occurs, select another station with a stronger signal. o Multi-Path Cancellation - Radio signals being received from several directions can cause distortion or fluttering. This can be caused by a direct and reflected signal from the same station, or by signals from two stations with close frequencies. If this occurs, select another station until the condition has passed. 1- 86 FEATURES OF YOUR HYUNDAI H260A01O-AAT STEREO RADIO OPERATION (H260) (If installed) 3. BASS/TREBLE Control Knob 4.

If any error occurs repeatedly or if an error can't be corrected, contact your dealer. 10. Care of Your Cassette Tape Player A tape player that is not cleaned regularly can cause reduced sound quality, reined cassettes or a damaged mechanism. Cassette tapes should be stored in their case away from con- taminants, direct sunlight and extreme heat. If they aren't they may not operate properly or may cause failure of the tape player. Your tape player should be cleaned regularly after every 59 hours of use. Your radio may display CLEAN to indicate that you have used your tape player needs to be cleaned. It will still play tapes, but you should clean it as soon as possible to prevent damage to your tapes and player. If you notice a reduction in sound quality, try a known good cassette to see of it is the tape or the tape player or fault. If this other cassette has no improvement in sound quality, clean the tape player. FEATURES OF YOUR HYUNDAI 1- 97 The recommended cleaning method for your cassette tape player is the use of a scrubbing action, non-abrasive cleaning cassette with pads which scrub the tape head as the hubs of the cleaner cassette turn. The recommended cleaning cassette is available through your dealer. When cleaning the cassette tape player with the recommended non-abrasive cleaning cassette, it is possible that the cassette may eject, be- cause the cut tape detection feature on your radio may recognize it as a broken tape. To prevent the cleaning cassette from being ejected, use the following steps: 1. Turn the ignition to ON or ACC. 2. Turn the radio off. 3. Press and hold the TAPE/CD select button for five seconds. READY will appear on the display and a cassette symbol will flash for five second. Insert the scrubbing action cleaning cas- sette. 4. 5. Eject the cleaning cassette after the manufacturer's recommended cleaning time. When the cleaning cassette has been ejected, the broken tape detection feature is active again. 1- 98 FEATURES OF YOUR HYUNDAI You may also choose a non-scrubbing action, wet-type cleaner which uses a cassette with a fabrica belt to clean the tape head. This type of cleaning cassette will not eject on its own. A non-scrubbing action cleaner may not clean as thoroughly as the scrubbing type cleaner. The use of a non-scrubbing action, dry-tape clean- ing cassette is not recommended. After you clean the player, press and hold the EJECT button for five seconds to reset the CLEAN indicator. The radio will display CLEANED to show the indicator was reset. Cassettes are subject to wear and the sound quality may degrade over time.

FEATURES OF YOUR HYUNDAI 1- 101 8. Care of Your Compact Discs Handle disc careful. Store them in their original cases or other protective cases away from direct sunlight and dust. If the surface of a disc is soiled, dampen a clean, soft cloth in a mild, neutral detergent solution and clean it, wiping from the center to the edge. Be sure never to touch the side without writing when handling discs. Pick up discs by grasping the outer edges or the edge of the hole and the outer edge. 9. Care of Your Compact Disc Player The use of CD lens cleaner discs is not advised, due to the risk of contaminating the lens of the CD optics with lubricants internal to the CD mechanism. 10.

B850A02F-AAT CARE OF DISC Proper Handling Storage When not in use, place your discs in their individual case and store them in a cool place away from the sun, heat, and dust. Do not grip or pull out the disc with your hand while the disc is being pulled into the unit by the self loading mechanism. Keep Your Discs Clean B850A01L Handle your disc as shown. Do not drop the disc. Hold the disc so you will not leave finger- prints on the surface. If the surface is scratched, it may cause the pickup to skip signal tracks. Do not affix tape, paper, or gummed labels on the disc. Do not write on the disc. Damaged Disc Do not attempt to play damaged, warped or cracked discs. These could severely damage the playback mechanism. B850A02L Fingerprints, dust, or soil on the surface of a disc could cause the pickup to skip signal tracks. Wipe the surface clean with a clean soft cloth. If the surface is heavily soiled, dampen a clean soft cloth in a solution of mild neutral detergent to wipe it clean. See drawing. FEATURES OF YOUR HYUNDAI 1- 109 B860A01A-AAT CARE OF CASSETTE TAPES B860A01L Proper care of your cassette tapes will extend the tape life and increase your listening enjoy- ment. Always protect your tapes and cassette cases from direct sunlight, severely cold and dusty conditions. When not in use, cassettes should always be stored in the original protec- tive cassette case. When the vehicle is very hot or cold, allow the interior temperature to become more comfortable before listening to your cas- settes. o Never leave a cassette inserted in the player when not being played. This could damage the tape player unit and the cassette tape. o We strongly recommend against the use of tapes longer than C-60 (60 minutes total). Tapes such as C-120 or C-180 are very thin and do not perform as well in the automotive environment. 1- 110 FEATURES OF YOUR HYUNDAI Head Cotton applicator B860A02L o The playback head, capstan and pinch roll- ers will develop a coating of tape residue that can result in deterioration of sound quality, such as a wavering sound. They should be cleaned monthly using a commercially avail- able head cleaning tape or special solution available from audio specialty shops. Follow the supplier's directions carefully and never oil any part of the tape player unit. o Always be sure that the tape is tightly wound on its reel before inserting in the player. Rotate a pencil in the drive sprockets to wind up any slack. B860A03L NOTE: Look at a tape before you insert it. If the tape is loose, tighten it by turning one of the hubs with a pencil or your finger. If the label is peeling off, do not put it in the drive mechanism. Do not leave tapes sitting where they are exposed to hot, warm, or high humidity, such as on top of the dashboard or in the player. If a tape is excessively hot or cold, let it reach a moderate temperature before putting it in the player. B860A01O o Be sure that the cassette label is not loose or peeling off or tape ejection may be difficult. o Never touch or soil the actual audio tape surfaces. o Keep all magnetized objects, such as elec- tric motors, speakers or transformers away from your cassette tapes and tape player unit. o Store cassettes in a cool, dry place with the open side facing down to prevent dust from settling in the cassette body. o Avoid repeated fast reverse usage to replay one given tune or tape section. This can cause poor tape winding to occur, and even- tually cause excessive internal drag and poor audio quality in the cassette. If this occurs, it can sometimes be corrected by fast winding the tape from end to end several times. If this does not correct the problem, do not continue to use the tape in your vehicle. 2.

C010A01O-AAT Engine exhaust fumes can be extremely dangerous. If, at any time, you smell exhaust fumes inside the vehicle, open the windows immediately. Engine exhaust, some of its constituents, and certain vehicle components contain or emit chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects and reproductive harm. In addition, certain fluids contained in vehicles and certain products of component wear contain or emit chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm. o Do not inhale exhaust fumes. Exhaust fumes contain carbon monoxide, a colorless, odorless gas that can cause unconsciousness and death by asphyxiation. o Be sure the exhaust system does not leak. The exhaust system should be checked whenever the vehicle is raised to change the oil or for any other purpose. If you hear a change in the sound of the exhaust or if you drive over something that strikes the underneath side of the car, have the exhaust system checked as soon as possible by your Hyundai dealer. o Do not run the engine in an enclosed area. Letting the engine idle in your garage, even with the garage door open, is a hazardous practice. Never run the engine in your garage any longer than it takes to start the engine and back the car out. o Avoid idling the engine for prolonged periods with people inside the car. If it is necessary to idle the engine for a prolonged period with people inside the car, be sure to do so only in an open area with the air intake set at "Fresh" and fan operating at one of the higher speeds so fresh air is drawn into the interior. If you must drive with the tail gate open because you are carrying objects that make this necessary: 1. Close all windows. 2. Open side vents. 3. Set the air intake control at "Fresh", the air flow control at "Floor" or "Face" and the fan at one of the higher speeds. To assure proper operation of the ventilation system, be sure the ventilation air intakes located just in front of the windshield are kept clear of snow, ice, leaves or other obstructions. ! WARNING: o The 2WD Santa Fe is not designed for off-road use. The 4WD Santa Fe is de- signed primarily for use on paved roads. However, occasional use in off-highway conditions such as established unpaved roads and non-challenging off-road trails is allowed. The 4WD Santa Fe is not designed for blazing new trails, chal- lenging off-road conditions, or unpaved hill climbing. Exceeding the conditions that were intended for the vehicle's pri- mary design may result in injury or death. o Utility vehicle has a significantly higher collision rate than other type of vehicles. o Utility vehicle have higher ground clear- ance and a narrower track to make them capable of performing in a wide variety of off-road applications. Specific design characteristics give them a higher center of gravitiy than ordinary cars. An advan- tage of the higher ground clearance is a better view of the road allowing you to anticipate problem. They are not de- signed for cornering at the same speeds as conventional 2-wheel drive vehicles any more than low-slung sports cars are designed to perform satisfactorily un- der off-road conditions. If at all possible, avoid sharp turns or abrupt maneuvers. As with other vehicles of this type, fail- ure to operate this vehicle correctly may result in loss of control or vehicle rollover. WARNING: o In a collision crash, an unbelted person is significantly more likely to die than a person wearing a seatbelt. C020A01A-AAT BEFORE STARTING THE ENGINE Before you start the engine, you should always: 1. Look around the vehicle to be sure there are no flat tires, puddles of oil, water or other indications of possible trouble. 2. After entering the car, check to be sure the parking brake is engaged. 3. Check that all windows, and lights are clean. 4. Check that the interior and exterior mirrors are clean and in position. 5.

Turn the ignition key to the "ACC" position. 2. Simultaneously push and turn the ignition key counterclockwise from the "ACC" posi- tion to the "LOCK" position. 3. The key can be removed in the "LOCK" position. C050A01A-AAT STARTING C050B01A-AAT Normal Conditions: The Starting Procedure: Insert key, and fasten the seat belt. 1. 2. Depress the clutch pedal fully and place the gearshift lever (manual transaxle) in neutral or the selector lever (automatic transaxle) in "P" (park) position. 3. After turning the ignition key to the "ON" position, make certain all warning lights and gauges are functioning properly before start- ing the engine. WARNING: Never run the engine in a closed or poorly ventilated area any longer than is needed to move your car in or out of the area. The carbon monoxide gas emitted is odorless and can cause serious injury or death. C050A01E WARNING: Be sure that the clutch is fully depressed when starting a manual transaxle vehicle. Your manual transaxle equipped vehicle will not start unless the clutch pedal is fully depressed. On a manual transaxle equipped vehicle that can be started without de- pressing the clutch, there is the potential to cause damage to the vehicle or injury to someone inside or outside the vehicle as a result of the forward or backward move- ment of the vehicle that will occur if the clutch is not depressed when the vehicle is started. DRIVING YOUR HYUNDAI 2- 5 4. Turn the ignition key to the "Start" position and release it when the engine starts. After the engine has started, allow the engine to run for 10 to 20 seconds prior to placing the vehicle in gear. The starter should not be operated for more than 15 seconds at a time. Wait 15-30 sec- onds between starting attempts to protect the starter from overheating. C070A01A-AAT OPERATING THE MANUAL TRANSAXLE C070A01O Your Hyundai's manual transaxle has a con- ventional shift pattern. This shift pattern is im- printed on the shift knob. The transaxle is fully synchronized in all forward gears so shifting to either a higher or a lower gear is easily accom- plished. 2- 6 DRIVING YOUR HYUNDAI NOTE: o 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. o During cold weather, shifting may be difficult until the transaxle lubricant has warmed up. This is normal and not harm- ful to the transaxle. o 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) position and release the clutch. Press the clutch pedal back down, and then shift into 1st or R(Reverse) gear position. o Do not use the shift lever as a handrest during driving, as this can result in pre- mature wear of the transaxle shift forks. CAUTION: When downshifting from fifth gear to fourth gear, caution should be taken not to inad- vertently press the gear lever sideways in such a manner that second gear is en- gaged. 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 pos- sibly cause engine damage. C070B01A-AAT Using the Clutch The clutch should be pressed all the way to the floor before shifting, then released slowly. The clutch pedal should always be used after fully returning to the original position. Do not rest your foot on the clutch pedal while driving. This can cause unnecessary wear. Do not partially engage the clutch to hold the car on an incline. This causes unnecessary wear. Use the parking brake to hold the car on an incline. Do not operate the clutch pedal rapidly and repeatedly. C070D02A-AAT Good Driving Practices o Never take the car out of gear and coast down a hill. This is extremely hazardous. Always leave the car in gear. o Don't "ride" the brakes. This can cause them to overheat and malfunction. 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 the car. o Slow down before shifting to a lower gear. This will help avoid over-revving the engine, which can cause damage. o Slow down when you encounter cross winds. This gives you much better control of your car. o Be sure the car is completely stopped before you attempt to shift into reverse. The transaxle can be damaged if you do not. To shift into reverse, depress the clutch, move the shift lever to neutral, wait three seconds, then shift to the reverse position. o 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 ve- hicle speed can cause the drive wheels to lose traction and the vehicle to go out of control. WARNING: o Avoid high cornering speeds. o Do not make quick steering wheel move- ments, such as sharp lane changes or fast, sharp turns. o Always wear your seat belts. o The risk of rollover is greatly increased if you lose control of your vehicle at high- way speeds. o Loss of control often occurs if two or more wheels drop off the roadway and the driver oversteers to reenter the road- way. o In the event your vehicle leaves the road- way, do not steer sharply. Instead, slow down before pulling back into the travel lanes. o In a collision crash, un unbelted person is significantly more likely to die than a person wearing a seatbelt. o Never exceed posted speed limits.
