2016 Hyundai Grand Santa Fe trailer

Introduction
No special break-in period is need-
ed. By following a few simple precau-
tions for the first 1,000 km (600
miles) you may add to the perform-
ance, economy and life of your vehi-
cle.
• Do not race the engine.
• While driving, keep your engine
speed (rpm, or revolutions per
minute) between 2,000 rpm and
4,000 rpm.
• Do not maintain a single speed for
long periods of time, either fast or
slow. Varying engine speed is
needed to properly break-in the
engine.
• Avoid hard stops, except in emer-
gencies, to allow the brakes to seat
properly.
• Don't tow a trailer during the first
2,000 km (1,200 miles) of opera-
tion.As with other vehicles of this type,
failure to operate this vehicle correct-
ly may result in loss of control, an
accident or vehicle rollover.
Specific design characteristics (high-
er ground clearance, track, etc.) give
this vehicle a higher center of gravity
than other types of vehicles. In other
words they are not designed for cor-
nering at the same speeds as con-
ventional 2-wheel drive vehicles.
Avoid sharp turns or abrupt maneu-
vers. Again, failure to operate this
vehicle correctly may result in loss of
control, an accident or vehicle
rollover.Be sure to read the
“Reducing the risk of a rollover”
driving guidelines, in section 5 of
this manual.

Features of your vehicle
• This system will activate when back-
ing up with the ignition switch ON.
If the vehicle is moving at a speed
over 10 km/h (6 mph), the system
may not be activated correctly.
• The sensing distance while the rear
parking assist system is in operation
is approximately 120 cm (47 in.).
• When more than two objects are
sensed at the same time, the clos-
est one will be recognized first.Types of warning sound
• When an object is 120 cm to 61 cm
(47 in. to 24 in.) from the rear
bumper: Buzzer beeps intermittently.
• When an object is 60 cm to 31 cm
(23 in. to 12 in.) from the rear
bumper: Buzzer beeps more fre-
quently.
• When an object is within 30 cm (11
in.) of the rear bumper:
Buzzer sounds continuously.
Non-operational conditions of
rear parking assist system
The rear parking assist system
may not operate properly when:
1. Moisture is frozen to the sensor. (It
will operate normally when the
moisture has been cleared.)
2. The sensor is covered with foreign
matter, such as snow or water, or
the sensor cover is blocked. (It will
operate normally when the materi-
al is removed or the sensor is no
longer blocked.)
3. Driving on uneven road surfaces
(unpaved roads, gravel, bumps,
gradient).
4. Objects generating excessive
noise (vehicle horns, loud motor-
cycle engines, or truck air brakes)
are within range of the sensor.
5. Heavy rain or water spray exists.
6. Wireless transmitters or mobile
phones are within range of the
sensor.
7. The sensor is covered with snow.

Driving your vehicle
Electric parking brake (EPB)
Applying the parking brake
To apply the EPB (electric parking
brake):
1.Depress the brake pedal.
2.Pull up the EPB switch.
Make sure the warning light comes
on.
Also, the EPB is applied automatical-
ly if the Auto Hold button is on when
the engine is turned off. However, if
you keep pressing the EPB switch
till the engine is turned off, the EPB
will not be applied.
✽NOTICE
On a steep incline or when pulling a
trailer if the vehicle does not stand
still, do as follows:
1. Apply the EPB.
2. Pull up the EPB switch for more
than 3 seconds.
Releasing the parking brake
To release the EPB (electric parking
brake), press the EPB switch in the
following condition:
• Have the ignition switch or engine
start/stop button in the ON posi-
tion.
• Depress the brake pedal.
Make sure the brake warning light
goes off.ODMEDR2113
CAUTION
Do not operate the parking
brake while the vehicle is mov-
ing except in an emergency sit-
uation. It could damage the
vehicle system and endanger
driving safety.

Trailer stability assist (TSA)
(if equipped)
Trailer stability assist is operated as
vehicle stability control system.
Trailer stability assist system has an
effort to stabilize the vehicle and trail-
er when the trailer sways or oscil-
lates. There are various reasons
making vehicle sway and oscillate.
Almost case it happens at high
speed however, if the trailer is affect-
ed by crosswinds, buffeting, and
improper overloading, it may be a
risk of swaying.
Factors of swaying such as:
- High speed
- Strong crosswinds
- Improper overloading
- Sudden controlling of steering
wheel
- Uneven roadTrailer stability assist system contin-
uously analyzes the vehicle and trail-
er instability. When the Trailer stabili-
ty assist system detects some sway,
the brakes are applied automatically
to stabilize the vehicle on the front
wheel. However, if it is not enough to
stabilize, the brakes are applied on
all wheels automatically and engine
power is properly reduced. When the
vehicle is stable from swaying, trailer
stability assist system does not oper-
ate.
Hill-start assist control (HAC)
(if equipped)
A vehicle has the tendency to slip
back on a steep hill when it starts to
go after stopping. The Hill-start
Assist Control (HAC) prevents the
vehicle from slipping back by operat-
ing the brakes automatically for
about 2 seconds. The brakes are
released when the accelerator pedal
is depressed or after about 2 sec-
onds.
✽NOTICE
• The HAC does not operate when
the transaxle shift lever is in the P
(Park) or N (Neutral) position.
• The HAC activates even though
the ESC is off but it does not acti-
vate when the ESC has malfunc-
tioned.
WARNING
The HAC is activated only for
about 2 seconds, so when the
vehicle is starting off always
depress the accelerator pedal.

If you are considering towing with
your vehicle, you should first check
with your country's Department of
Motor Vehicles to determine their
legal requirements.
Since laws vary the requirements for
towing trailers, cars, or other types of
vehicles or apparatus may differ. We
recommend that you ask an author-
ized HYUNDAI dealer.
✽NOTICE - For Europe
• The technically permissible maxi-
mum load on the rear axle(s) may
be exceeded by not more than 15
% and the technically permissible
maximum laden mass of the vehi-
cle may be exceeded by not more
than 10 % or 100 kg (220.4 lbs),
whichever value is lower. In this
case, do not exceed 100 km/h (62.1
mph) for vehicle of category M1 or
80 km/h (49.7 mph) for vehicle of
category N1.
(Continued)(Continued)
• When towing a trailer, the addi-
tional load imposed at the trailer
coupling device may cause the
rear tire maximum load ratings to
be exceeded, but not by more than
15%. In such a case, do not exceed
100km/h, and the rear tire pres-
sure should be at least 20 kPa(0.2
bar) above the tire pressure(s) as
recommended for normal use (i.e.
without a trailer attached).
TRAILER TOWING
CAUTION
Pulling a trailer improperly can
damage your vehicle and result
in costly repairs not covered by
your warranty. To pull a trailer
correctly, follow the advice in
this section.
WARNING- Towing a
trailer
If you don't use the correct
equipment and/or drive improp-
erly, you can lose control when
you pull a trailer. For example, if
the trailer is too heavy, the
brakes may not work well - or
even at all. You and your pas-
sengers could be seriously or
fatally injured. Pull a trailer only
if you have followed all the
steps in this section.
WARNING- Weight limits
Before towing, make sure the
total trailer weight, GCW (gross
combination weight), GVW
(gross vehicle weight), GAW
(gross axle weight ) and trailer
tongue load are all within the
limits.
