If the car is being towed with the rear wheels on the ground, be sure the parking brake is released. NOTE: Before towing, check the level of the transaxle fluid. If it is below the "HOT" range on the dipstick, addfluid. If you cannot add fluid, a towing dolly must be used. D080D01TB-AAT EMERGENCY TOWING

CAUTION:
When replacing a fusible link, never use anything but a new fusible link with the same or lower amperage rating. Never use a piece of wire ora higher-rated fusible link. This could result in serious damage and create a fire hazard.!
4. Replace the blown fuse by pressing a new fuse of the same rating into place. The fuse should be a snug fit. If it is not, have the fuse clip repairedor replaced by a Hyundai dealer. If you do not have a spare fuse, you may be able to borrow a fuse of thesame or lower rating from an acces-
G200B02A-AAT Replacing Accessory Fuse The fuse box for the lights and other electrical accessories will be found low on the dashboard on the driver's side.Inside the box you will find a list show- ing the circuits protected by each fuse. If any of your car's lights or otherelectrical accessories stop working, a blown fuse could be the reason. If the fuse has burned out, you will see thatthe metal strip inside the fuse has burned through. If you suspect a blown fuse, follow this procedure:
HTB180
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 the fusebox to simplify this operation).
3. Be sure to check all other fuses
even if you find one that appears tohave burned out.

5. Open the hood.
6. Draw the vertical line (through the center of each headlight beam pat-tern) and the horizontal line (throughthe center of each headlight beam pattern) on the aiming screen. And then, draw the horizontal paral- lel line at 30 mm (1.18 in.) under the horizontal line.
7. Adjust each cut-off line of the low beam to the parallel line with a phillipsscrewdriver - VERTICAL AIMING.
8. Adjust each cut-off line of the low
beam to each vertical line with aphillips screwdriver - HORIZONTAL AIMING. HTB269

G290A01FC-GAT HEADLIGHT AIMING ADJUST- MENT Before performing aiming adjustment, make sure of the following.
1. Keep all tires inflated to the correct pressure.
2. Place the vehicle on level ground
and press the front bumper and rear bumper down several times. Place the vehicle at a distance of 3,000 mm (118 in.) from the test wall.

I050A01TB-GAT TIRE CHAINS Tire chains, if necessary should be installed on the front wheels. Be sure that the chains are the proper size andthat they are installed in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions. To minimize tire and chain wear, donot continue to use tire chains when they are no longer needed.
I040A01S-GAT SNOW TIRES If you equip your car with snow tires, they should be the same size and havethe same load capacity as the original tires. Snow tires should be installed on all four wheels; otherwise, poor han-dling may result. Snow tires should carry 28 kPa (4 psi) more air pressure than the pressurerecommended for the standard tires on the tire label on, or up to the maxi- mum pressure shown on the tiresidewall whichever is less. Do not drive faster than 120 km/h (75 mph) when your car is equipped withsnow tires.
!WARNING:
o When driving on roads covered with snow or ice, drive at less than 30 km/h (20 mph).
o Use the SAE "S" class or wire &
plastic chains.
o Don't use the tire chains in 185/ 55R 15 tire to prevent body dam-age.
o If you have noise caused by chaws contacting the body, re-tighten the chain to avoid contactwith the vehicle body.
o Retighten the chains to prevent
from a body damage after driving0.5 ~ 1 km with equipping chains.
CAUTION:
Always observe the following:
o Check pressures when the tires are cold. That is, after the car has been parked for at least three hours and hasn't been drivenmore than 1.6 km or one mile since starting up.
o Check the pressure of your spare
tire each time you check the pres-sure of other tires.

I070A01A-AAT TIRE BALANCING A tire that is out of balance may affect handling and tire wear. The tires onyour Hyundai were balanced before the car was delivered but may need balancing again during the years youown the car. Whenever a tire is dismounted for repair, it should be rebalanced beforebeing reinstalled on the car. I080A01A-AAT TIRE TRACTION Tire traction can be reduced if you drive on worn tires, tires that are im-properly inflated or on slippery road surfaces. Tires should be replaced when tread wear indicators appear. Toreduce the possibility of losing control, slow down whenever there is rain, snow or ice on the road. I090A01S-GAT WHEN TO REPLACE TIRES
I060A01FC-GAT TIRE ROTATION
Tires should be rotated every 10,000 km (6,000 miles). If you notice thattires are wearing unevenly between rotations, have the car checked by a Hyundai dealer so the cause may becorrected. After rotating, adjust the tire pressures and be sure to check wheel nut tight-ness.
HA1409Spare tire WARNING:
o Do not use the temporary spare tire for tire rotation.
o Do not mix bias-ply and radial-
ply tires under any circum- stances. This may cause danger- ous handling characteristics.
