WHAT TO DO IN AN EMERGENCY
D060J01E-AATAfter 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 it
until it is correct. Always reinstall the
valve cap after checking or adjusting
tire pressure. If the cap is not re-
placed, air may leak from the tire. If
you lose a valve cap, buy another and
install it as soon as possible.
After you have changed wheels, al-
ways secure the flat tire in its place in
the trunk and return the jack and tools
to their proper storage locations.

IF YOUR VEHICLE MUST BE
TOWEDD080A01O-GATIf your vehicle has to be towed, it should
be done by your Hyundai dealer or a
commercial tow truck service. This will
help assure that your vehicle is not dam-
aged in towing. Also, professionals are
generally aware of local laws governing
towing. In any case, rather than risk dam-
age to your car, it is suggested that you
show this information to the tow truck
operator. Be sure that a safety chain sys-
tem is used and that all local laws are
observed.
It is recommended that your vehicle be
towed with a wheel lift and dollies or
flatbed 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 neutral.
o When the engine will not start, be
sure the steering is unlocked by plac-
ing the key in the "ACC" position.

not to cause damage to the bumper
or underbody of the vehicle.

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 dipstick, add
fluid. If you cannot add fluid, flatbed
equipment or a towing dolly must be
used.
2) If any of the loaded wheels or suspen-
sion components are damaged or the
vehicle is being towed with the 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)".
CAUTION:
Do not tow with the key removed or in
the "LOCK" position when towing from
the rear without a towing dolly.
