What to do in an emergency
Use a towing cable or chain lessthan 16 feet (5 m) long. Attach a
white or red cloth (about 12 inches
(30 cm) wide) in the middle of the
cable or chain for easy visibility.
Drive carefully so the towing cable or chain remains tight during tow-
ing.
Before towing, check the automat- ic transmission for fluid leaks under
your vehicle. If the automatic trans-
mission fluid is leaking, flatbed
equipment or a towing dolly must
be used.

To avoid damage to your vehicle
and vehicle components when
towing:
Always pull straight ahead
when using the towing hooks.
Do not pull from the side or at
a vertical angle.
Do not use the towing hooks
to pull a vehicle out of mud,
sand or other conditions from
which the vehicle cannot be
driven out under its own
power.
Limit the vehicle speed to 10
mph (15 km/h) and drive less
than 1 mile (1.5 km) when tow-
ing to avoid serious damage
to the automatic transmis-
sion.

What to do in an emergency
For your safety, do not touch
high voltage cables, connec-
tors and package modules.
High voltage components are
orange in color.
Exposed cables or wires may
be visible inside or outside of
the vehicle. Never touch the
wires or cables, because an
electrical shock, an injury, or a
death may occur.
Any gas or electrolyte leakage
from your vehicle is not only
poisonous but also flammable.
Upon witnessing one of those,
open the windows, and remain
a safe distance from the vehi-
cle out of the road. Immediately
contact an authorized Hyundai
dealer and advise them that a
hybrid vehicle is involved.

occurs:
When your vehicle is flooded in
water, a high-voltage battery
may cause shock or may catch
on fire. Thus, turn the hybrid
system OFF, take the key in
your possession and move to a
safe place. Never attempt phys-
ical contact with your flooded
vehicle. Immediately contact an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer and
