Failure to do so may adversely affect the safety
and handling of your car. Speeding, rapid accel-eration, sudden brake applications, and sharpturns are potentially very hazardous practices.During deceleration, use engine braking to thefullest extent. Sudden brake applications onsnowy or icy roads may cause skids to occur.
You need to keep sufficient distance betweenthe vehicle in front and your vehicle. Also, applythe brake gently.
It should be noted that installing tire chains on
the tire will provide a greater driving force, butwill not prevent side skids.

Your Hyundai is delivered with high quality
ethylene glycol coolant in the cooling system. It is the only type of coolant that should be usedbecause it helps prevent corrosion in the cool-ing system, lubricates the water pump andprevents freezing. Be sure to replace or replen-ish your coolant in accordance with the main-tenance schedule in Section 5. Before winter,have your coolant tested to assure that itsfreezing point is sufficient for the temperaturesanticipated during the winter.

Select the proper hitch and ball combination,
making sure that it's location is compatible with that of the trailer or vehicle being towed.
Use a quality non-equalizing hitch which distrib-

The hitch should be bolted securely to the car
and installed by a qualified technician. DO NOTUSE A HITCH DESIGNED FOR TEMPORARYINSTALLATION AND NEVER USE ONE THATATTACHES ONLY TO THE BUMPER.

Safety Chains
Should the hitch connection between your car
and the trailer or vehicle you are towing fail, the trailer or vehicle could wander dangerouslyacross other lanes of traffic and ultimately col-lide with another vehicle. To eliminate this po-tentially dangerous situation, safety chains, at-tached between your car and the trailer ortowed vehicle, are required in most provinces.

4. To maintain engine braking efficiency andelectrical charging performance, do not use fifth gear (manual transaxle) or overdrive(automatic transaxle).
5. Always secure items in the trailer to prevent load shift while driving.
6. Check the condition and air pressure of all tires on the trailer and your car. Low tirepressure can seriously affect the handling.Also check the spare tire.
7. The vehicle/trailer combination is more af- fected by crosswind and buffeting. When being passed by a large vehicle, keep a constant speed and steer straight ahead.If there is too much wind buffeting slowdown to get out of the other vehicle's airturbulence.
8. When parking your car and trailer, especial- ly on a hill, be sure to follow all the normalprecautions. Turn your front wheel into thecurb, set the parking brake firmly, and putthe transaxle in 1st or Reverse (manual) orPark (automatic). In addition, place wheelchocks at each of the trailer's tires.
9. If the trailer has electric brakes, start your vehicle and trailer moving, and then applythe trailer brake controller by hand to besure the brakes are working. This lets youcheck your electrical connection at the sametime.
10. During your trip, check occasionally to be sure that the load is secure, and that thelights and any trailer brakes are still working.

11. Avoid jerky starts, sudden acceleration or
sudden stops.
12. Avoid sharp turns and rapid lane changes.
13. Avoid holding the brake pedal down too long or too frequently. This could cause the brakes to overheat, resulting in reduced brakingefficiency.
14. When going down a hill, shift into a lower gear and use the engine braking effect. When ascending a long grade, downshift the transaxle to a lower gear and reduce speedto reduce chances of engine overloadingand/or overheating.
15. If you have to stop while going uphill, do not hold the vehicle in place by pressing on theaccelerator. This can cause the automatictransaxle to overheat. Use the parking brakeor footbrake.

That is, first, attach one clamp of the jumper cable tothe positive (+) post or cable of the dis-charged battery. Then attach the other endof the same cable to the positive (+) post orcable of the booster battery. Next, using theother cable, attach one clamp to the nega-tive (-) post or cable of the booster battery.Then attach the other end of that cable to asolid metal part of the engine away from thebattery. Do not connect the cable to anymoving part.
