air may leak from the tire. If you lose a valve cap, buy another and install it assoon as possible. After you have changed wheels, al- ways secure the flat tire in its place inthe luggage room and return the jack and tools to their proper storage loca- tions.
Wheel nut tightening torque: Steel wheel & aluminium alloy wheel: 900-1,100 kg.cm (65-80 lb.ft)
D060J01FC-GAT After Changing Wheels If you have a tire gauge, remove the valve cap and check the air pressure. If the pressure is lower than recom-mended, drive slowly to the nearest service station and inflate to the cor- rect pressure. If it is too high, adjust ituntil it is correct. Always reinstall the valve cap after checking or adjusting tire pressure. If the cap is not replaced, HFC502
IF YOUR VEHICLE MUST BE TOWED
D080A01O-GAT If your vehicle has to be towed, it should be done by your Hyundai dealeror a commercial tow truck service. This will help assure that your vehicle is not damaged in towing. Also, profes-sionals are generally aware of local laws governing towing. In any case, rather than risk damage to your car, itis suggested that you show this infor- mation to the tow truck operator. Be sure that a safety chain system is usedand that all local laws are observed. It is recommended that your vehicle be towed with a wheel lift and dollies orflatbed equipment with all the wheels off the ground.
! CAUTION:
o Your vehicle can be damaged if towed incorrectly!
o Be sure the transaxle is in neu-
tral.
o When the engine will not start, be
sure the steering is unlocked by placing the key in the "ACC" po- sition.

HFC005
Your vehicle can be towed by wheel lift type truck (1), (2) or flatbed equipment (3).
!
1) If the vehicle 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 automatic transaxle fluid. If it is below the "HOT" range on the dip-stick, add fluid. If you cannot add fluid, a towing dolly must be used.
2) If any of the loaded wheels or sus- pension components are damaged or the vehicle is being towed withthe front wheels on the ground, use a towing dolly under the front wheels.
o Manual Transaxle: If you do not use a towing dolly, place the ignition key in the "ACC"position and put the transaxle in "N (Neutral)".

EMERGENCY TOWING
D080D04A-AAT
For emergency towing when no com- mercial tow vehicle is available, attach a tow cable, chain or strap to one of thetowing hooks under the front/rear of your vehicle. Do not attempt to tow your vehicle in this manner on any unpavedsurface. This could result in serious damage to your vehicle. Nor should towing be attempted if thewheels, drive train, axles, steering or brakes are damaged. Before towing, be sure the transaxle is in neutral andthe key is in "ACC" (with the engine off) or in the "ON" position (with the engine running). A driver must be in the towedvehicle to steer it and operate the brakes. D080D04FC
HFC006
!
o Automatic Transaxle:
Be sure to use a towing dolly under the front wheels.
CAUTION:
A vehicle with an automatic transaxleshould never be towed from the rearwith the front wheels on the ground. This can cause serious damage to the transaxle.
3) It is recommended that your vehicle be towed with all the wheels off the ground. Front
Rear CAUTION:
If the car is being towed with all fourwheels on the ground, it can be towed only from the front. Be sure that the transaxle is in neutral. Do not tow at speeds greater than 50km/h (30 mph) and for more than 25 km (15 miles). Be sure the steering is unlocked byplacing the key in the "ACC" posi- tion. A driver must be in the towed vehicle to operate the steering andbrakes.

DO-IT-YOURSELF MAINTENANCE

On the backside of the mult box, you
will find a list showing the circuits protected by each fuse. If any of your car's lights or other
electrical accessories stop working, ablown fuse could be the reason. If the fuse has burned out, you will see that the metal strip inside the fuse hasburned through. If you suspect a blown fuse, follow this procedure:
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 fuse box to simplify this operation).
3. Be sure to check all other fuses even if you find one that appears tohave burned out. Good
G200B03Y
Burned out
CAUTION:
A burned-out fuse indicates thatthere is a problem in the electrical circuit. If you replace a fuse and it blows as soon as the accessory isturned on, the problem is serious and should be referred to a Hyundai dealer for diagnosis andrepair. Never replace a fuse with anything except a fuse with the same or a lower amperage rating.A higher capacity fuse could cause damage and create a fire hazard. NOTE: See page 6-39 for the fuse panel descriptions.
!
G200B01FC
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 repaired or replaced by a Hyundai dealer. If you do not have a sparefuse, you may be able to borrow a fuse of the same or lower rating from an accessory you can tempo-rarily get along without (the radio or cigarette lighter, for example). Al- ways remember to replace the bor-rowed fuse.

B020A02FC-EAT Petrol Engine The longevity and performance of the vehicle are greatly affected by the careexercised during the first 1,000 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 perfor- mance and useful life from the vehicle.
1) Do not race the engine without a load (i.e revving the engine in neutral).
2) During the first 500 miles the maxi-
mum engine speed should be re- stricted to 3,000 rpm and gradually increased thereafter.
3) Avoid prolonged constant speed op- eration. The internal components willbecome run in more quickly if the operation speed is varied during therunning-in period.
4) Never allow the engine to labour. Use
the gearbox freely and avoid largethrottle open-ings when the engine speed is below 1,500 rpm. 5) Avoid rapid acceleration and maxi-
mum throttle openings.
6) Avoid harsh braking during the first 100 miles of urban motoring or 1,000 miles of motorway driving to allowthe friction facings of the brake pads and shoes to bed against the discs and drums properly.
7) No trailer towing should be under- taken during the running in period.
ZB010C1-E "Alternative fuels" Fuels which contain methanol or etha- nol must not be used. ZB010D1-E Operation in Foreign Countries Drivers of vehicles which are to be operated in foreign countries must sat- isfy themselves that:
o The vehicle meets all local regula-
tions with respect to insurance, speci- fications etc..
o The correct types and grades of fuel are available for satisfactory opera-tion of the vehicle.
ZB010F2-A Fuels for Cleaner Air To help contribute to cleaner air, Hyundai recommends that you usefuels treated with detergent additives, which help to prevent deposit forma- tion in the engine. These fuels will helpthe engines run cleaner and increase the Emission Control System perfor- mance.

Because of modern manu- facturing techniques, rigid guidelines regarding maximum road speeds havebecome unnecessary. However, cer- tain precautions should be observed in order to obtain the best possible perfor-mance and useful life from the vehicle.
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 3,000 rpm and graduallyincreased thereafter. And whilst driv- ing, keep under three quarters of maximum vehicle speed.
3) Avoid prolonged constant speed op- eration. The internal components ofthe engine will become run in morequickly if the operation speed is var- ied during the running in period.
4) Never allow the engine to labour. Use the gearbox freely and avoid largethrottle open-ings when the engine speed is below 1,500 rpm. 5) Avoid rapid acceleration and maxi-

6SB035A1-FE The immobiliser system is an anti-theft device, designed to prevent and deterautomobile theft. All of the locks fitted to the vehicle are operated by the same key. However,since it is possible to lock the doors without the use of the key, care should be exercised to ensure that the keydoes not become locked inside the vehicle by mistake. NOTE: A non-genuine duplicate key will not start the engine. AX10020A
