WARNING:

Yourcarwillnotstopasquicklyifthebrakes
are wet. Wet brakes may cause the car to
pull to one side. To dry the brakes, apply
the brakes lightly until the braking action
returns to normal, taking care to keep the
carundercontrolatalltimes.Ifthebraking
action does not return to normal, stop as
soon as it is safe  to do so and call your
Hyundai dealer for assistance.
o  Don't coast down hills with the car out of
gear. This is extremely hazardous. Keep
the car in gear at all times, use the brakes
to slow down, then shift to a lower gear so
that engine braking will help you maintain
a safe speed.
o  Don't "ride" the brake pedal. Resting your
foot on the brake pedal while driving can
be dangerous because it can result in the
brakes  overheating   and  losing  their
effectiveness.Italsoincreasesthewearof

a safe place.

in park with the parking brake set are
at risk for moving inadvertently and

facing  downhill, turn  the front  wheels
into the curb to help keep the car  from
rolling. If your  car is facing uphill,  turn
the front wheels away from the curb to
help keep the car from rolling. If there is
no  curb  or  if  it  is  required  by other
conditions to keep the car from rolling,
block the wheels.
o  Under  some  conditions  your  parking
