C190F01A-DAT Trailer or Vehicle Towing Tips
1. Before towing, check hitch and
safety chain 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 100 km/h).
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) or overdrive (automatic transmission).
5. Always secure items in the trailer to prevent load shift while 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. Alsocheck the spare tyre.
7. The vehicle/trailer combination is
more affected by crosswind andbuffeting. When being passed by a large vehicle, keep a constant speed and steer straight ahead. If there istoo much wind buffeting slow down to get out of the other vehicle's air turbulence.

14. When going down a hill, shift into a
lower gear and use the engine brak- ing effect. When ascending a longgrade, downshift the transmission to a lower gear and reduce speed to reduce chances of engine over-loading and/or overheating.
15.If you have to stop while going
uphill, do not hold the vehicle inplace by pressing on the accelera- tor. This can cause the automatic transmission to overheat. Use thehand brake or footbrake.
NOTE: When towing, check transaxle fluid more frequently. 1. Turn off the air conditioner.
2. Reduce highway speed.
3. Select a lower gear when going up-
hill.
4. While in stop and go traffic, place
the gear selection in park or neutraland idle the engine at a higher speed.
CAUTION:
If overheating should occur whentowing, (temperature gauge reads near red zone), taking the following action may reduce or eliminate theproblem.
!
8. When parking your car and trailer,
especially on a hill, be sure to follow all the normal precautions. Turnyour front wheel into the curb, set the hand brake firmly, and put the transmission 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, drive your vehicle with the trailerattached, and then apply the trailerbrakes by hand. This test confirms the operation of the trailer brakes and also checks your electrical con-nection at the same time.
10.During your trip, check occasion-
ally to be sure that the load issecure, and that the lights and any trailer brakes are still working.
11.Avoid jerky starts, sudden accel- eration 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 cause the brakes to overheat, re-sulting in reduced braking efficiency. D120A02A-DAT IF YOU LOSE YOUR KEYS If you happen to lose your leys, your vehicle will require towing to your Hyundai dealer to have the new set ofkeys programmed to your vehicle.

G230A03A-GAT POWER STEERING FLUID LEVEL The power steering fluid level should be checked regularly. To check the power steering fluid level, be sure the ignition is "OFF", then check to make certain that the power steering fluid level is between the "MAX" and "MIN" level markings on the fluid reservoir. HTB163NOTE: Grinding noise from the power steer- ing pump may be heard immediatelyafter the engine is started in extremely cold conditions (below - 20°C). If the noise stops during warm up, there isno abnormal function in the system. It is due to a power steering fluid characteristic in extremely cold con-ditions. Recommended Fluid Use PSF-3 type fluid NOTE: Do not start the engine when the power steering oil reservoir is empty.
