4 RUNNING IN YOUR NEW HYUNDAI
B020A02FC-EAT PETROL ENGINE The longevity and performance of the vehicle are greatly affected by the careexercised during the first 1000 miles of motoring. Because of modern manu- facturing techniques, rigid guidelinesregarding maximum road speeds have become unnecessary. However, cer- tain precautions should be observed inorder to obtain the best possible per- formance and useful life from the ve- hicle.
1) Do not race the engine without a
load (i.e revving the engine in neu- tral).
2) During the first 500 miles the maxi-
mum engine speed should be re-stricted to 3000 rpm and gradually increased thereafter.
3) Avoid prolonged constant speed operation. The internal componentsof the engine will become more quickly run in if the operation speedis varied during the running in pe- riod. 4) Never allow the engine to labour. Use
the gearbox freely and avoid large throttle openings when the engine speed is below 1500 rpm.
5) Avoid rapid acceleration and maxi- mum throttle openings.
6) Avoid harsh braking during the first
100 miles of urban motoring or 1000 miles of motorway driving to allow the friction facings of the brake pads and shoes to bed against the discsand drums properly.
7) No trailer/caravan towing should be
undertaken during the 1000 mile run-ning-in period. 1) Do not race the engine without a load
(i.e revving the engine in neutral).
2) During the first 600 miles the maxi- mum engine speed should be re-stricted to 3000 rpm and graduallyincreased thereafter. And while driv- ing, keep under three quarters of maximum vehicle speed.
3) Avoid prolonged constant speed operation. The internal componentsof the engine will become morequickly run in if the operation speed is varied during the running in pe- riod.
4) Never allow the engine to labour. Use the gearbox freely and avoidlarge throttle openings when theengine speed is below 1500 rpm.
5) Avoid rapid acceleration and maxi-
mum throttle openings.
6) Avoid harsh braking during the first 100 miles of urban motoring or 1000miles of motorway driving to allowthe friction facings of the brake pads and shoes to bed against the discs and drums properly.

EFFECTIVE BRAKING
HPC141A1-E Braking system performance and fric- tion material life are greatly affected by the driving style adopted. The follow- ing suggestions are made to assist inachieving the best results from the braking system.
o Anticipate the road and conditions ahead in order that heavy braking may be avoided.
o When descending long gradients,
use the engine to assist in retardingthe vehicle to minimise the possibil- ity of brake fade occurring.
o When trailer towing, ensure that the trailer brakes function correctly anduse engine braking to assist the vehicle braking system.
o Use only genuine Hyundai replace- ment brake pads and shoes to en-sure consistent friction characteris-tics and wear rates.
o After driving through deep water (e.g.
fording), the brakes may becomewet and performance reduced. Al- ways check brake efficiency after emerging from the water and dry thebrakes by lightly depressing the brake pedal several times whilst driv- ing slowly.LIMITED-SLIP DIFFEREN- TIAL (LSD)
D190A01HP-EAT (Not all models) A limited-slip differential, if equipped, is for the rear wheel differential only.The features of this limited-slip differ- ential are described below: Just as with a conventional differential,the wheel on one side is allowed to turn at a different speed from the wheel on the other side when the vehicle iscornering. The difference between the limited-slip differential and a conven- tional differential is that if the wheel onone side of the vehicle loses traction, a greater amount of torque is applied to the rear wheel on the other side toimprove traction.
WARNING:
ABS will not prevent accidents dueto improper or dangerous drivingmanoeuvres. Even though vehicle control is improved during emer- gency braking, always maintain asafe distance between you and ob- jects ahead. Vehicle speeds should always be reduced during extremeroad conditions. The braking distance for cars equipped with an anti-lock braking system may be longer than for those without it, in the following road con-ditions. These roads should be driven at reduced speeds.
o Rough, gravel or snow-covered roads.
o With tyre chains installed.
o On roads where the road surface is pitted or has different surfaceheight.
The safety features of an ABSequipped vehicle should not be testedby high speed driving or cornering. This could endanger the safety of yourself or others.
! CAUTION:
o Never start the engine with the gearshift lever placed in the for- ward or reverse whilst one of therear wheels is jacked up and the other in contact with the ground; doing so may cause the vehicle tojump forward.
o Use only recommended oil for
LSD in the rear axle.See page 9-4 for the recommended oil descriptions.

YC200C3-A Trailer Brakes If your trailer is equipped with a braking system, make sure it conforms to localregulations and that it is properly in- stalled and operating correctly. NOTE: If you tow a trailer or vehicle, your car will require more frequent main- tenance due to the additional load.See Maintenance Under Severe Usage Conditions" on page 5-6.
YC200B2-E Trailer Towbars Select the correct towbar and ball com- bination, making sure that its location is compatible with that of the trailer or vehicle being towed.Use a quality non-equalizing towbar which distributes the nose weight uni- formly throughout the chassis. The towbar should be bolted securely to the car and installed by a qualifiedtechnician.
!
CAUTION:
Do not do any towing with your car during its first 1,000 miles in order to allow the engine to have properlyrun-in. Failure to heed this caution may result in serious engine or trans- mission damage.
TRAILER OR VEHICLE TOWING
HPC200A2-E If you are considering towing with your car, you should first check with your Local Laws to determine their legal requirements.Since laws vary from country to coun- try, the requirements for towing trailers, cars, or other types of vehicles orapparatus may differ. Ask your Hyundai authorised repairer for further details before towing.

!
CAUTION:
o Never connect a trailer brake sys- tem directly to the vehicle brake system.
o When towing a trailer on steep grades (in excess of 6%) pay closeattention to the engine coolanttemperature gauge to ensure the engine does not overheat. If the needle of the coolant temperaturegauge moves across the dial to- wards "H" (HOT), pull over and stop as soon as it is safe to do so,and allow the engine to idle until it cools down. You may proceed once the engine has cooled suffi-ciently. YC200D2-E Safety Cables Should the towbar connection between your car and the trailer or vehicle youare towing fail, the trailer or vehicle could wander dangerously across other lanes of traffic and ultimately leave theroadway. To eliminate this potentially dangerous situation, a safety cable, attached between your car and thetrailer or towed vehicle, are required.
C190E03HP-EAT Trailer Weight Limit Nose weights can be increased or de- creased by re-distributing the load in the trailer.This can be verified by checking the total weight of the loaded trailer and then checking the nose weights. NOTE:
1. Never load the trailer with more
weight in the back than in the front. About 60% of the trailerload should be in the front half on the trailer and the remaining 40% in the rear.

CAUTION:
The following specifications are recommended when towing a trailer. The loaded trailer weight can- not safely exceed the values in thechart.
3. The front or rear axle weight must
not exceed the Gross Axle WeightRating (GAWR) shown on the ve- hicle identification plate (see page 8-2). It is possible that your towingpackage does not exceed the GVWR but exceeds the GAWR. Improper trailer loading and/or toomuch luggage in the luggage com- partment can overload the rear axle. Redistribute the load andcheck the axle weight again.
4. The maximum permissible static
vertical load (nose weight) on thecoupling device is 247 Lbs. (112kg)

61.7(28) C190G01HP-EAT Important Trailer Weight Infor- mation The Maximum Towable Weight of your Hyundai Terracan will be reduced ifthe vehicle is loaded. The Maximum Towable Weight for a fully loaded vehicle is calculated asfollows:
1. Find the Vehicle Identification Num-
ber (VIN) plate (see section 8).
2. Note the top 2 weights (in kg) of the
4 lines of weight information on the VIN plate.
3. Subtract the weight on line 1 from
line 2. This result (in kg) is themaximum towable weight of a fully loaded vehicle. For more information, contact yourlocal Hyundai authorised repairer. HPC200E1-E Trailer or Vehicle Towing Tips
1. Before towing, check towbar and
safety cable connections as well as proper operation of the trailer run- ning lights, brake lights, and turn signals.
2. Always drive your vehicle at a mod- erate speed (Less than 60 MPH).
3. Trailer towing requires more fuel than normal conditions.
4. To maintain engine braking effi-
ciency and electrical charging per-formance, do not use fifth gear (manual transmission).
5. Always secure items in the trailer to prevent load shift whilst driving.
6. Check the condition and air pres-
sure of all tyres on the trailer and your car. Low tyre pressure can seriously affect the handling. Also check the spare tyre.
7. The vehicle/trailer combination is more affected by crosswind andbuffeting.When being passed by a large ve- hicle, keep a constant speed and steer straight ahead. If there is toomuch wind buffeting slow down to get out of the other vehicle's air turbulence.
