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.

sories in both vehicles.
3. Attach the clamps of the jumper cable in the exact order shown in the illustration. 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.
4. Start the engine in the car with the booster battery and let it run for a few minutes. Thiswill help to assure that the booster battery isfully charged. During the jumping operation,run the engine in this vehicle at about 2,000rpm.
5. Start your engine using the normal starting procedure. After the engine starts, leave thejumper cables connected and let the enginerun at fast idle or about 2,000 rpm for sev-eral minutes.
6. Carefully remove the jumper cables in the reverse order of attachment.
If you do not know why your battery becamedischarged (because the lights were left on,etc.), have the charging system checked byyour Hyundai dealer.

The fuse box for the lights and other electrical
accessories will be found low on the dashboardon the driver's side. Inside the box you will finda list showing the circuits protected by eachfuse.
If any of your car's lights or other electrical
accessories stop working, a blown fuse couldbe the reason. If the fuse has burned out, youwill see that the metal strip inside the fuse hasburned through. If you suspect a blown fuse,follow this procedure:
1. Turn off the ignition and all other switches.
2. Open the fuse box and examine each fuse. Remove each fuse by pulling it toward you (a small "fuse puller" tool is contained in thefuse box to simplify this operation).
3. Be sure to check all other fuses even if you find one that appears to have burned out.

Your Hyundai is equipped with dual-diagonal
braking systems. This means you still havebraking on two wheels even if one of the dualsystems should fail. With only one of the dualsystems working, more than normal pedal trav-el and greater pedal pressure are required tostop the car. Also, the car will not stop in asshort a distance with only half of the brakesystem working. If the brakes fail while you are driving, shift to a lower gear for additional en-gine braking and stop the car as soon as it issafe to do so.
