What to do in an emergency
Removing and storing the
spare tire
Turn the tire hold-down wing bolt
counterclockwise.
Store the tire in the reverse order of
removal.
To prevent the spare tire and tools
from “rattling” while the vehicle is in
motion, store them properly.
❈If it is hard to loosen the tire hold-down
wing bolt by a hand, you can loosen it
easily using the Jack handle.
1. Put the Jack handle (1) into the
inside of tire hold-down wing bolt.
2. Turn the tire hold-down wing bolt
counterclockwise by the Jack han-
dle to utilize the principles of the
lever and fulcrum.
Changing tires
1. Park on a level surface and apply
the parking brake firmly.
2. Shift the shift lever into R(Reverse)
with manual transmission or P(Park)
with automatic transmission.
3. Activate the hazard warning flasher.

Use a towing strap less than 16 feet
(5 m) long. Attach a white or red
cloth (about 12 inches (30 cm)
wide) in the middle of the strap for
easy visibility.
Drive carefully so that the towing
strap is not loosened during towing.
Emergency towing precautions
Place the ignition switch in ACC so
the steering wheel isn’t locked.
Place the transmission shift lever in
N (Neutral).
Release the parking bake.
Press the brake pedal with more
force than normal since you will
have reduced brake performance. More steering effort will be
required because the power steer-
ing system will be disabled.
If you are driving down a long hill,
the brakes may overheat and brake
performance will be reduced. Stop
often and let the brakes cool off.
WARNING
Use extreme caution when tow-
ing the vehicle.

driving maneuvers which
would place excessive stress
on the emergency towing hook
and towing cable or chain. The
hook and towing cable or chain
may break and cause serious
injury or damage.
If the disabled vehicle can not
be moved, do not forcibly con-
tinue the towing. Contact an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer or
a commercial tow truck serv-
ice for assistance.
Tow the vehicle as straight
ahead as possible.
Keep away from the vehicle
during towing.
OBK069020
CAUTION - Automatic
transmission
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 transmis-
sion is in neutral. Be sure the
steering is unlocked by placing
the ignition switch in the ACC
position. A driver must be in
the towed vehicle to operate
the steering and brakes.
To avoid serious damage to
the automatic transmission,
limit the vehicle speed to 10
mph and drive less than 1
mile when towing.
Before towing, check the level
of the automatic transmission
fluid. If it is below the "HOT"
range on the dipstick, add fluid.
If you cannot add fluid, a tow-
ing dolly must be used.

Maintenance

While operating your vehicle:
Note any changes in the sound of
the exhaust or any smell of
exhaust fumes in the vehicle.
Check for vibrations in the steering
wheel. Notice any increased steer-
ing effort or looseness in the steer-
ing wheel, or change in its straight-
ahead position.
Notice if your vehicle constantly
turns slightly or “pulls” to one side
when traveling on smooth, level
road.
When stopping, listen and check
for unusual sounds, pulling to one
side, increased brake pedal travel
or “hard-to-push” brake pedal.
If any slipping or changes in the
operation of your transmission
occurs, check the transmission
fluid level.
Check automatic transmission P
(Park) function.
Check parking brake.
Check for fluid leaks under your
vehicle (water dripping from the air
conditioning system during or after
use is normal).
At least monthly:
Check the coolant level in the
engine coolant reservoir.
Check the operation of all exterior
lights, including the stoplights, turn
signals and hazard warning flash-
ers.
Check the inflation pressures of all
tires including the spare.
At least twice a year
(i.e., every Spring and Fall):
Check the radiator, heater and air
conditioning hoses for leaks or
damage.
Check the windshield washer
spray and wiper operation. Clean
the wiper blades with clean cloth
dampened with washer fluid.
Check the headlight alignment.
Check the muffler, exhaust pipes,
shields and clamps.
Check the lap/shoulder belts for
wear and function.
Check for worn tires and loose
wheel lug nuts.

the intervals specified in the mainte-
nance schedule.
Manual transmission fluid
(if equipped)
Inspect the manual transmission
fluid according to the maintenance
schedule.

not be checked under normal usage
conditions.
But in severe conditions, the fluid
should be changed at an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer in accordance to
the scheduled maintenance at the
beginning of this chapter.
Brake hoses and lines
Visually check for proper installation,
chafing, cracks, deterioration and
any leakage. Replace any deteriorat-
ed or damaged parts immediately.
CAUTION
The use of a non-specified fluid
could result in transmission
malfunction and failure.
Use only specified automatic
transmission fluid. (Refer to
“Recommended lubricants and
capacities” in section 8.)
