Hyundai i-30: Dual clutch transmission / Good driving practices
- Never move the shift lever from P
(Park) or N (Neutral) to any other
position with the accelerator pedal
depressed.
- Never move the shift lever into P
(Park) when the vehicle is in
motion.
Be sure the vehicle is completely
stopped before you attempt to shift
into R (Reverse) or D (Drive).
- Do not move the shift lever to N
(Neutral) when driving. Doing so
may result in an accident because
of a loss of engine braking and the
transmission could be damaged.
- Do not drive with your foot resting
on the brake pedal. Even light, but
consistent pedal pressure can
result in the brakes overheating,
brake wear and possibly even
brake failure.
- When driving in manual shift mode,
slow down before shifting to a
lower gear. Otherwise, the lower
gear may not be engaged if the
engine rpms are outside of the
allowable range.
- Always apply the parking brake
when leaving the vehicle. Do not
depend on placing the transmission
in P (Park) to keep the vehicle
from moving.
- 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.
- Optimum vehicle performance and
economy is obtained by smoothly
depressing and releasing the
accelerator.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of SERIOUS
INJURY or DEATH:
- ALWAYS wear your seat belt.
In a collision, an unbelted
occupant is significantly more
likely to be seriously injured
or killed than a properly belted
occupant.
- Avoid high speeds when cornering
or turning.
- Do not make quick steering
wheel movements, such as
sharp lane changes or fast,
sharp turns.
- The risk of rollover is greatly
increased if you lose control
of your vehicle at highway
speeds.
- Loss of control often occurs if
two or more wheels drop off
the roadway and the driver
over steers to reenter the
roadway.
- In the event your vehicle
leaves the roadway, do not
steer sharply. Instead, slow
down before pulling back into
the travel lanes.
- HYUNDAI recommends you
follow all posted speed limits.
Information - Kickdown
Mechanism (if equipped)
Use the kickdown mechanism for
maximum acceleration. Depress the
accelerator pedal beyond the pressure
point. The automatic transmission will
shift to a lower gear depending on the
engine speed.
Always come to a complete stop and
continue to depress the brake pedal.
Move the shift lever into the P (Park)
position, apply the parking brake,
and place the ignition switch in the
LOCK/OFF position...
Power brakes
Your vehicle has power-assisted
brakes that adjust automatically
through normal usage.
If the engine is not running or is
turned off whilst driving, the power
assist for the brakes will not work...
Categories
To signal a turn, push down on the
lever for a left turn or up for a right
turn in position (A). To signal a lane
change, move the turn signal lever
slightly and hold it in position (B).The
lever will return to the OFF position
when released or when the turn is
completed.
