Trailer or Vehicle Towing Tips
1. Before towing, check towbar ball and safe- ty cable connections as well as proper operation of the trailer running lights, brake lights, and turn signals.
2. Always drive your vehicle at a moderate speed (Less than 60 MPH)
3. Trailer towing requires more fuel than nor- mal conditions.
4. To maintain engine braking efficiency and electrical charging performance, do not usefifth gear (manual transaxle) or overdrive (automatic transaxle). 5. Always secure items in the trailer to pre-
vent load shift whilst driving.
6. Check the condition and air pressure of all tyres on the trailer and your car. Low tyrepressure can seriously affect the handling. Also check the spare tyre.
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 slow down to get out of the other vehicle's air turbulence.
8. When parking your car and trailer, espe- cially on a hill, be sure to follow all thenormal precautions. Turn your front wheels into the curb, set the parking brake firmly, and put the transaxle in 1st or Reverse (manual) or Park (automatic). In addition, place wheel chocks at each of the trailer's tyres.
9. If the trailer has electric brakes, start your vehicle and trailer moving, and then applythe trailer brake controller by hand to be sure the brakes are working. This lets you check your electrical connection at the same time.
10.During your trip, check occasionally to be sure that the load is secure, and that thelights and any trailer brakes are still work- ing. 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 causethe brakes to overheat, resulting in re- duced braking efficiency.
14.When going down a hill, shift into a lower gear and use the engine braking effect. When ascending a long grade, downshiftthe transaxle to a lower gear and reduce speed to reduce chances of engine over- loading and/or overheating.
15.If you have to stop whilst going uphill, do not hold the vehicle in place by pressing onthe accelerator. This can cause the auto- matic transaxle to overheat. Use the park- ing brake or footbrake.
NOTE:When towing check transaxle fluid more
frequently.
CAUTION:If overheating should occur when towing,
(temperature gauge reads near red zone), taking the following action may reduce or eliminate the problem.
1. Turn off the air conditioner.
2. Reduce highway speed.
3. Select a lower gear when going uphill.
4. While in stop and go traffic, place the gear selection in park or neutral andidle the engine at a higher speed.

IN CASE OF EMERGENCY
If the drive belt seems to be satisfactory, check for coolant leaking from the radiator, hoses or under the car. (If the air condi- tioning had been in use, it is normal for cold water to be draining from it).
WARNING: Whilst the engine is running, keep hands and clothing away from moving parts such as the fan and drive belts to prevent injury. WARNING (Diesel only): Never work on injection system with en-gine running or within 30 seconds after shutting off engine. High pressure pump, rail, injectors and high pressure pipes are subject to high pressure even after the engine stopped. The fuel jet produced by fuel leaks may cause serious injury, if it touch the body. People using pacemak- ers should ensure that they keep a dis- tance of 30cm from the ECU or wiring harness within the engine room whilst engine is running, since the high currents in the Common Rail system produce con- siderable magnetic fields.
5. If the water pump drive belt is broken or coolant is leaking out, stop the engine immediately and call the nearest Hyundai authorised repairer for assistance. WARNING:Do not remove the radiator cap when theengine is hot since steam and boiling water may be ejected from the radiator resulting in burns or scalding.
6. If the cause of the overheating cannot be found, wait until the engine temperature has returned to normal. Then, if coolant has been lost, carefully remove the radia- tor cap and add water to bring the fluid level in the reservoir up to the base of the radiator fill opening. Fill the coolant expan- sion tank to the halfway mark.
7. Proceed with caution until it is established that the engine is operating normally. If theengine overheats repeatedly, the advice of a Hyundai authorised repairer should be sought.
CAUTION:Serious loss of coolant indicates there is a leak in the cooling system and this should be checked as soon as possible by a Hyundai authorised repairer. D040A01FC-EAT
TEMPORARY SPARE TYRE The following instructions for the temporary
spare tyre should be observed:
1. Check inflation pressure as soon as pos-
sible after installing the spare tyre, and adjust to the specified pressure. The tyre pressure should be periodically checked and maintained at the specified pressure whilst the tyre is stored.
2. The spare tyre should only be used tem- porarily and should be returned to the luggage compartment as soon as the origi- nal tyre can be repaired or replaced.
3. Continuous use at speeds of over 80 km/h
(50 mph) is not recommended.
4. As the temporary spare tyre is specifically designed for your car, it should not beused on any other vehicle.
5. The temporary spare tyre should not be used on any other wheels, nor shouldstandard tyre, snow tyre, wheel covers or trim rings be used with the temporary spare wheel. If such use is attempted, damage to these items or other car com- ponents may occur.
6. The temporary spare tyre pressure should be checked once a month whilst the tyreis stored.

IN THE EVENT OF A PUNCTURE If a puncture occurs whilst driving the vehicle:
1. Bring the car to rest as soon as it is safe to do so and with the minimum amount of braking required which will assist in main- taining the maximum amount of control. The vehicle should be parked wherever possible upon firm level ground to facilitate wheel changing.
2. If the vehicle is creating a hazard and the road conditions do not permit the wheel tobe changed safely, assistance should be sought.
3. Passengers must not be allowed to remain inside the vehicle during wheel changing.If a puncture occurs whilst the vehicle is on a motorway, the passengers should take refuge on the motorway embankment to avoid the possibility of injury occurring should the vehicle be struck by other motorway traffic.
4. Wheel changing should be performed ac- cording to the following instructions.

5. Raising the Car
After inserting a wrench bar into the wheel nut
wrench, install the wrench bar into the jack as shown in the drawing. To raise the vehicle, turn the wheel nut wrench clockwise. As the jack begins to raise the vehicle, double check that it is properly positioned and will not slip. If the jack is on soft ground or sand, it may be necessary to place a stout piece of timber under the base of the jack to prevent it from sinking.
Raise the car high enough so that the fully
inflated spare wheel can be installed.
WARNING: Do not get under the car when it is support-
ed by the jack! The jack is solely designedfor wheel changing and is not intended to support the vehicle for other purposes. The use of purpose designed supports is neces- sary whilst the vehicle is raised and the operator is required to get underneath.

SD070K1-E AFTER CHANGING WHEELS The pressure of the spare tyre should be checked at the first available opportunity. If any doubt exists as to the tyre pressure, the vehicle should be driven slowly to the nearest service station and the tyre pressure checked and adjusted as required. If the valve cap is lost from any of the valves, a replacement should be obtained and fitted at the first available opportunity. The valve cap prevents the ingress of dirt which may cause the valve to stick and therefore leak and is part of the valve sealing function. Ensure that the spare wheel, jack and wheel nut wrench as well tools are correctly located in the boot of the vehicle to prevent damage and noise.
