8. When parking your car and trailer,especially on a hill, be sure to fol- low all the normal precautions. Turn your front wheel into the curb, set the parking brake firmly, and putthe transmission in 1st or Reverse. In addition, place wheel chocks at each of the trailer's tires.
9. If the trailer has electric brakes, start your vehicle and trailer mov-ing, and then apply the trailer brakecontroller by hand to be sure the brakes are working. This lets you check your electrical connection atthe 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 over-heat, resulting in reduced braking efficiency.
!WARNING:
Improperly loading your car and trailer can seriously affect its steer- ing and braking performance caus- ing a crash which could cause seri-ous injury or death. C190F01HR-GAT Trailer or Vehicle Towing Tips
1. Before towing, check hitch and
safety chain connections as well as proper operation of the trailer running 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, do not tow a trailer withtransmission in fifth gear.
5. Always secure items in the trailer
to prevent load shift while driving.
6. Check the condition and air pres- sure of all tires on the trailer andyour car. Low tire pressure canseriously affect the handling. Also check the spare tire.
7. The vehicle/trailer combination is more affected by crosswind andbuffeting. When being passed by a largevehicle, keep a constant speed and steer straight ahead. If there is too much wind buffeting, slow downto get out of the other vehicle's air turbulence.

CAUTION:
If overheating should occur when towing, (temperature gauge readsnear 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 selector in park or neu- tral and idle the engine at a higherspeed.
14. When going down a hill, shift into a
lower gear and use the engine brak-ing effect. When ascending a long grade, downshift the transmission to alower 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. Use the parking brake or footbrake.
NOTE: When towing check transmission fluid more frequently.

IF THE ENGINE OVERHEATS
D030A01HR-GAT If your temperature gauge indicates overheating, you experience a loss of power, or hear loud pinging or knock- ing, the engine is probably too hot. Ifthis happens to you, you should:
1. Pull off the road and stop as soon as it is safe to do so.
2. Place the gear selector lever in neu-
tral and set the parking brake. If the air conditioning is on, turn it off.
3. If engine coolant is running out un-
der the car or steam is coming outfrom the hood, allow the engine to idle. Do not open the hood until the engine coolant has stopped runningor the steaming has stopped. If there is no visible loss of engine coolant and no steam, leave the enginerunning, lift up the passenger's seat
(Refer to "To Inspect the Engine
Compartment Under the Passenger's
Seat" on page 1-13.) and check to be sure the engine cooling fan is oper- ating. If the fan is not running, turnthe engine off.
6. Carefully remove the jumper cables
in the reverse order of attachment.
If you do not know why your batterybecame discharged (because the lightswere left on, etc.), have the charging system checked by your Hyundai dealer. 4. Check to see if the water pump drive
belt is missing. If it is not missing,check to see that it is tight. If the drive belt seems to be satisfactory, check for coolant leaking from theradiator, hoses or under the car. (If the air conditioning had been in use, it is normal for cold water to bedraining from it when you stop).
WARNING:
While the engine is running, keephair, hands, and clothing away from moving parts such as the fan and drive belts to prevent injury.
HHR4002
NOTE: If your vehicle is equipped with double cab, frist pull the cushion of the reat seat forward (Refer to "RearSeat Cushion Under Box" on page 1-11.) And remove the battery cover by turning the knob counterclock-wise. And then you can jump start the car.

6. Insert the spare tire carrier wrench
into the hole in the spare tire carrier and turn it clockwise.
7. After the spare tire fully raised, tighten by hand to about 30 kg .
f (295 N).
Then, remove the spare tire carrier wrench with care not to turn it in thereverse direction. Now, ensure that the tire is secured in position.
! CAUTION:
If you cannot secure the spare tire in position, load it on the cargo deckand ask your nearest service shop for inspection.

IF YOU HAVE A FLAT TIRE
D050A01HR-GAT If a tire goes flat while you are driving:
1. Take your foot off the accelerator pedal and let the car slow down while driving straight ahead. Do not apply the brakes immediately or at- tempt to pull off the road as this maycause a loss of control. When the car has slowed to such a speed that it is safe to do so, brake carefullyand pull off the road. Drive off the road as far as possible and park on firm, level ground. If you are on adivided highway, do not park in the median area between the two traffic lanes.
2. When the car is stopped, turn on your emergency hazard flashers,set the parking brake and put thetransmission in reverse.
3. Have all passengers get out of the
car. Be sure they all get out on theside of the car that is away from traffic.
4. Change the tire according to the instructions provided as following.

(4) Move the jack handle up and down to raise the ram until just before the jack contacts the jacking point of the car.
(5) Position the jack with the jack handle. Position it only at the speci-fied points indicated in the "Put the Jack in Place".Use of the jack at other points could damage the car.
(6) Moving the jack handle up and down to raise the ram. As the jack beginsto raise the vehicle, double check that it is properly positioned and will
not slip. Raise the car high enough so that the fully inflated spare tire can be installed. To do this, you willneed more ground clearance than is required to remove the flat tire.

18IF YOU LOSE YOUR KEYS
D120A01A-AAT If you lose your keys, many Hyundai dealers can make you a new key if you have your key number. If you lock the keys inside your car andyou cannot obtain a new key, many Hyundai dealers can use special tools to open the door for you.
Nor should it be attempted if the wheels,drive train, axles, steering or brakesare damaged. Before towing, be sure the transmission is in neutral and the key in "ACC" (with the engine off) or inthe "ON" position (with the engine run- ning). A driver must be in the towed car to steer it and operate the brakes.
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 transmission is in neutral. Do not tow at speeds greater than50 km/h (25 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.

D080D01HR-GAT EMERGENCY TOWING
For emergency towing when no com- mercial tow vehicle is available, attach a tow cable, chain or strap to the towing hook under the front of yourcar. Do not attempt to tow your vehicle in this manner on any unpaved sur- face. This may result in serious dam-age to your car. D080D01HR
