Backing up
Hold the bottom of the steering wheel
with one hand. Then, to move the trailer
to the left, move your hand to the left. To
move the trailer to the right, move your
hand to the right. Always back up slowly
and, if possible, have someone guide
you.
Making turns
When you’re turning with a trailer, make
wider turns than normal. Do this so your
trailer won’t strike soft shoulders, curbs,
road signs, trees, or other objects. Avoid
jerky or sudden maneuvers. Signal well in
advance.
Turn signals
When you tow a trailer, your vehicle has
to have a different turn signal flasher and
extra wiring. The green arrows on your
instrument panel will flash whenever you
signal a turn or lane change. Properly
connected, the trailer lights will also flash
to alert other drivers you’re about to turn,
change lanes, or stop.
When towing a trailer, the green arrows
on your instrument panel will flash for
turns even if the bulbs on the trailer
are burned out. Thus, you may think
drivers behind you are seeing your
signals when, in fact, they are not. It’s
important to check occasionally to be
sure the trailer bulbs are still working.
You must also check the lights every time
you disconnect and then reconnect the
wires.
WARNING
Do not connect a trailer lighting system
directly to your vehicle’s lighting
system. Use an approved trailer wiring
harness. Failure to do so could result
in damage to the vehicle electrical
system and/or personal injury. Consult
an authorized HYUNDAI dealer for
assistance.
Driving on hills
Reduce speed and shift to a lower gear
before you start down a long or steep
downgrade. If you don’t shift down, you
might have to use your brakes so much
that they would get overheated and may
not operate efficiently.
On a long uphill grade, shift down and
reduce your speed to around 45 mph (70
km/h) to reduce the possibility of engine
and transmission overheating.
If your trailer weighs more than the
maximum trailer weight without trailer
brakes and you have a automatic
transmission, you should drive in D
(Drive) when towing a trailer.
Operating your vehicle in D (Drive)
when towing a trailer will minimize heat
build-up and extend the life of your
transmission.

WARNING
Take the following precautions when
using Forward Collision-Avoidance
Assist:
• For your safety, change the Settings
after parking the vehicle at a safe
location.

Assist will maintain the last setting.
• Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist
does not operate in all situations or
cannot avoid all collisions.
• The driver should hold the

Collision-Avoidance Assist. Rather,
maintain a safe braking distance, and
if necessary, depress the brake pedal
to reduce driving speed or to stop
the vehicle.
• Never deliberately operate Forward
Collision-Avoidance Assist on people,
animal, objects, etc. It may cause
serious injury or death.

of Forward Collision-Avoidance
Assist if the surrounding is noisy.
• Forward Collision-Avoidance
Assist may turn off or may not
operate properly or may operate
unnecessarily depending on the road
conditions and the surroundings.
WARNING
• Even if there is a problem with
Forward Collision-Avoidance
Assist, the vehicle’s basic braking
performance will operate normally.
• During emergency braking,
braking control by the system will
automatically cancel when the
driver excessively depresses the
accelerator pedal or sharply steers
the vehicle.
