When towing the 4WD vehicle, it must be
towed by lifting all 4 wheels or using the
towing dolly.
CAUTION:
o The 4WD vehicle should never be
towed with the wheels on the ground.
This can cause serious damage to the
transaxle or the 4WD system.
o When towing the vehicle, take care
not to cause damage to the bumper or
underbody of the vehicle.

WHAT TO DO IN AN EMERGENCY

IF YOU LOSE YOUR KEYSD120A01A-AATIf you lose your keys, many Hyundai deal-
ers can make you a new key if you have
your key number. If you lock the keys inside
your car and you cannot obtain a new key,
many Hyundai dealers can use special
tools to open the door for you. For emergency towing when no commer-
cial tow vehicle is available, attach a tow
cable, chain or strap to one of the towing
hooks under the front/rear of your vehicle.
Be very careful when attempting this pro-
cedure when the vehicle is on any un-
paved surface to avoid damage to your
vehicle.
Nor should towing be attempted if the
wheels, drive train, axles, steering or
brakes are damaged. Before towing, be
sure the transaxle is in neutral and the key
is in "ACC" (with the engine off) or in the
"ON" position (with the engine running). A
driver must be in the towed vehicle to steer
it and operate the brakes.
NOTE:o To avoid serious damage to your 4WD
vehicle, limit the towing to 15 km/h (10
mph) and not for more than 1.5 km (1
mile) at ANY TIME.
o Before towing, check the level of the
automatic transaxle fluid. If it is below
the "75°C" range on the dipstick, add
fluid. If you cannot add fluid, a towing
dolly must be used.
CAUTION:
If the Engine is not running, the power
assist for the brakes and steering will
not work so steering and braking will be
much harder than usual.
CAUTION:
If the car is being towed with all four
wheels 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 50 km/h (30 mph)
and for more than 25 km (15 miles).
Be sure the steering is unlocked by plac-
ing the key in the "ACC" position. A
driver must be in the towed vehicle to
operate the steering and brakes.

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 spare fuse, you may be able to borrow
a fuse of the same or lower rating from
an accessory you can temporarily get
along without (the radio or cigarette
lighter, for example). Always remember
to replace the borrowed fuse.
CAUTION:
An open fuse indicates that there is a
problem in the electrical circuit. If you
replace a fuse and it blows as soon as the
accessory is turned on, the problem is
serious and should be referred to a
Hyundai dealer for diagnosis and repair.
Never replace a fuse with anything ex-
cept 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 6-35 for the fuse panel descrip-
tions.
GoodOpen-Replace
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 relay and fuse box of
the engine room to simplify this opera-
tion).
3. Be sure to check all other fuses even if
you find one that appears to have
opened.
