3-10 o 4WD has higher ground clearance and a
narrower track to make them capable of performing in a wide variety of off roadapplications. Specific design characteristicsgive them a higher center of gravity thanordinary cars. An advantage of the higherground clearance is a better view of the roadallowing you to anticipate problems. Theyare not designed for cornering at the samespeeds as conventional 2-wheel drive vehi-cles any more than low-slung sports carsare designed to perform satisfactorily underoff-road conditions. If at all possible, avoidsharp turns or abrupt maneuvers. As withother vehicles of this type, failure to operatethis vehicle correctly may result in loss ofcontrol or vehicle rollover.
o Do not grip the inside or spokes of the steering wheel when driving off-road. Thesteering wheel could jerk and injure yourhands. Always firmly hold the outer steeringwheel when you are driving off-road.
o Drive at lower speeds in strong crosswinds. Because of your vehicle’s high center ofgravity, its stability will be affected in cross-
winds. Slower speeds ensure better vehiclecontrol.
o Whenever you drive off-road through sand, mud or water as deep as the wheel hub,more frequent maintenance may be required.
o Do not drive in water if the level is higher than the bottom of the wheel hubs. o Check your brake condition once you are
out of mud or water. Press the brake severaltimes as you move slowly until your feelnormal braking forces return.
o Four-wheel driving on flat and normal roads can result in a severe binding conditionwhen turning the steering wheel.

(1) Move the gearshift lever to neutral.
(2) Be sure the towing speed is within the legal limit.
(3) On vehicles with steering lock system, turn the ignition switch to "ACC" to unlock the steering wheel. If you will be using the turnsignals while being towed, turn the ignitionswitch to "ON" position.
(4) To prevent the exhaust gas from entering the towing vehicle, set the air selection leveron the heater control to the recirculationposition.
(5) Turn on the hazard warning lamps.
(6) During towing, make sure that close contact is maintained between the drivers of both vehicles, and that the vehicles travel at low speed. Avoid abrupt starting or stoppingwhich might subject the vehicles to shock.
(7) If the transmission is malfunctioning or dam- aged, tow the vehicle with the rear wheelsraised off the ground.
(8) If the vehicle is equipped with a brake boost- er system, the brake boosting power will belost and greater force will be required todepress the brake pedal.
(9) If the vehicle is equipped with a power steering system, greater force will be re-quired to operate the steering wheel.

If you notice anything that does not operate correctly or appear to be functioning correctly,inspect it carefully and seek assistance fromyour Hyundai dealer if service is needed. Adequate care of your vehicle at regular inter- vals serves to preserve the value and appear-ance as long as possible. Some maintenance items can be carried out bythe owner (Consumer Information), while othershould be done only by an authorized dealer(Periodic Inspection and Maintenance). Thissection describes only those items which canbe carried out by the owner. In the event amalfunction or other problem is discovered,have it corrected by an authorized HYUNDAIdealer. This section contains information oninspection maintenance procedures that youcan do yourself, if you so desire. Follow theinstructions and cautions for each of the vari-ous procedures. When checking or servicing the inside of the engine compartment, be sure the engine isstopped and has had a chance to cool down. Ifit is necessary to do work in the engine com-partment with the engine running, be especiallycareful that your clothing, hair, etc., becomesnot caught by the fan, V-belts, or other movingparts.
