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.
To reduce the risk of SERIOUS INJURY
or DEATH:
śꢀ ALWAYS wear your seatbelt. In a
collision, an unbelted occupant
is significantly more likely to be
seriously injured or killed than a
properly belted occupant.
śꢀ Avoid high speeds when cornering or
turning.
śꢀ Do not make quick steering wheel
movements, such as sharp lane
changes or fast, sharp turns.
śꢀ The risk of rollover is greatly
increased if you lose control of your
vehicle at highway speeds.
śꢀ Loss of control often occurs if two or
more wheels drop off the roadway
and the driver over steers to reenter
the roadway.
śꢀ In the event your vehicle leaves
the roadway, do not steer sharply.
Instead, slow down before pulling
back into the travel lanes.
śꢀ HYUNDAI recommends you follow all
posted speed limits.
