TRAILER TOWING
USE OF LIGHTS
C190A01A-AATYour Hyundai should not be used to tow a
trailer. It is designed to be compact and light
for good fuel economy, and is not designed as
a trailer-towing vehicle. Damages or malfunc-
tions caused by towing may not be covered by
the limited warranties applying to your Hyundai.
Damages or malfunctions that result from tow-
ing a trailer for commercial purposes are specifi-
cally not covered by Hyundai limited warranties.
C180A01A-AATCheck your lights regularly for correct opera-
tion and always keep them clean. When driv-
ing during the day in conditions of poor visibil-
ity, it is helpful to drive with headlights on low
beam. This enables you to be seen as well as
to see.

Vehicle capacity weight:
880 lbs (400 kg)
Vehicle capacity weight is the maxi-
mum combined weight of occupants
and cargo. If your vehicle is equipped
with a trailer, the combined weight
includes the tongue load.
Seating capacity:
Total: 5 persons
(Front seat: 2 persons,
Rear seat: 3 persons)
Seating capacity is the maximum num-
ber of occupants including a driver,
your vehicle may carry.
However the seating capacity may be
reduced based upon the weight of all
of the occupants, and the weight of the
cargo being carried or towed. Do not
overload the vehicle as there is a limit
to the total weight, or load limit includ-
ing occupants and cargo, the vehicle
can carry.Towing capacity:
Towing capacity is the maximum trailer
weight including its cargo weight, your
vehicle can tow. See the section
"Trailer or Vehicle Towing" for specifi-
cations about the trailer weight.
Cargo capacity:
The cargo capacity of your vehicle will
increase or decrease depending on the
weight and the number of occupants
and the tongue load, if your vehicle is
equipped with a trailer.
Steps for Determining Correct Load
Limit
(1)Locate the statement "The com-
bined weight of occupants and cargo
should never exceed XXX pounds''
on your vehicle's placard.
(2)Determine the combined weight of
the driver and passengers that will
be riding in your vehicle.(3)Subtract the combined weight of the
driver and passengers from XXX
kilograms or XXX pounds.
(4)The resulting figure equals the avail-
able amount of cargo and luggage
load capacity. For example, if the
"XXX" amount equals 1400 lbs, and
there will be five 150 lb. passengers
in your vehicle, the amount of avail-
able cargo and luggage load capac-
ity is 650 lbs. (1400-750 (5 x 150) =
650 lbs.)
(5)Determine the combined weight of
luggage and cargo being loaded on
the vehicle. That weight may not
safely exceed the available cargo
and luggage load capacity calcu-
lated in Step 4.
(6)If your vehicle will be towing a trailer,
load from your trailer will be trans-
ferred to your vehicle. Consult this
manual to determine how this re-
duces the available cargo and lug-
gage load capacity of your vehicle.

Refer to your vehicle’s tire and loading
information label for specific informa-
tion about your vehicle’s capacity
weight and seating positions. The com-
bined weight of the driver, passengers
and cargo should never exceed your
vehicle’s capacity weight.
!
The label shows the maximum allow-
able weight of the fully loaded vehicle.
This is called the GVWR (Gross Ve-
hicle Weight Rating). The GVWR in-
cludes the weight of the vehicle, all
occupants, fuel and cargo.
This label also tells you the maximum
weights that can be supported by the
front and rear axles, called Gross Axle
Weight Rating (GAWR). To find out the
actual loads on your front and rear
axles, you need to go to a weigh
station and weigh your vehicle. Your
dealer can help you with this. Be sure
to spread out your load equally on both
sides of the centerline.WARNING:
o Never exceed the GVWR for your
vehicle, the GAWR for either the
front or rear axle and vehicle ca-
pacity weight. Exceeding these
ratings can cause an accident or
vehicle damage. You can calcu-
late the weight of your load by
weighing the items (or people)
before putting them in the ve-
hicle. Be careful not to overload
your vehicle.
o Do not load your vehicle any
heavier than the GVWR, either the
maximum front or rear GAWR and
vehicle capacity weight. If you
do, parts, including tires on your
vehicle can break, and it can
change the way your vehicle
handles and braking ability. This
could cause you to lose control
and crash. Also, overloading can
shorten the life of your vehicle.

3.5 ~ 4.5 kgf.m
5. Remove the oil filter by turning it counter-
clockwise with a oil filter wrench of the proper
size. A certain amount of oil will come out
when you remove the filter. So be sure to
have your drain pan in place underneath it.
6. Install a new oil filter in accordance with the
instructions on the carton or on the filter
itself. Do not over-tighten (Tightening torque
: 1.2 ~ 1.6 kgf.m).
Be sure that the mounting surface on the
engine is clean and that the old gasket is
removed completely. Lubricate the new gas-
ket on the filter before installation with clean
engine oil.7. Refill the crankcase with the recommended
engine oil. Refer to the specification in chap-
ter 9 for engine oil capacity.
8. Start the engine and check to be sure no oil
is leaking from the drain plug or oil filter.
9. Shut off the engine and recheck the oil
level.
NOTE:Always dispose of used engine oil in an
environmentally acceptable manner. It is sug-
gested that it be placed in a sealed container
and taken to a service station for reclama-
tion. Do not pour the oil on the ground or put
it in with the household trash.
The engine oil and filter should be changed at
those intervals specified in the maintenance
schedule in Section 5. If the car is being driven
in severe conditions, more frequent oil and filter
changes are required.
The procedure for changing the oil and filter is
as follows:
1. Park the car on level ground and set the
parking brake. Start the engine and let it
warm up until the needle on the temperature
gauge moves above the lowest mark. Turn
the engine off and place the gear selector
lever in "P" (automatic) or reverse gear
(manual transaxle).
2. Open the hood and remove the engine oil
filler cap.
!
PROPOSITION 65 WARNING:
Used engine oil may cause irritation or can-
cer of the skin if left in contact with the skin
for prolonged periods of time. Used engine
oil contains chemicals that have caused can-
cer in laboratory animals. Always protect
your skin by washing your hands thoroughly
with soap and warm water as soon as pos-
sible after handling used oil.

G050D02A-AATTo Change the CoolantThe coolant should be changed at those inter-
vals specified in the vehicle maintenance sched-
ule in Section 5.
CAUTION:
Engine coolant can damage the finish of
your car. If you spill engine coolant on the
car, wash it off thoroughly with clean water.
1. Park the car on level ground, set the parking
brake and remove the radiator cap when
cool.
2. Be sure your drain receptacle is in place.
Open the drain cock on the radiator. Allow all
the engine coolant to drain from the cooling
system, then securely close the drain cock.
3. Check Section 9 for the capacity of the
cooling system in your car. Then, following
the manufacturer's directions on the engine
coolant container, add the appropriate quan-
tity of coolant to the radiator.
!
4. Turn the radiator cap counterclockwise with-
out pressing down on it, until it stops. This
relieves any pressure remaining in the cool-
ing system. And remove the radiator cap by
pushing down and turning counterclockwise.
Now fill the radiator with clean demineralized
or distilled water. Continue to add clean
demineralized or distilled water in small quan-
tities until the fluid level stays up in the
radiator neck.

5. Start the engine, top off the radiator with
water and then add engine coolant to the
reservoir until the level is between "L" and
"F".
6. Replace the radiator and reservoir caps and
check to be sure the drain cocks are fully
closed and not leaking.
