TOWING
Towing Service
A
AOQXI069011[A] : Dollies
If emergency towing is necessary,
we recommend having it done by
an authorized HYUNDAI dealer or a
commercial tow-truck service. Proper
lifting and towing procedures are
necessary to prevent damage to the
vehicle. The use of wheel dollies or
flatbed is recommended.
On 2WD vehicles, it is acceptable to
tow the vehicle with the rear wheels
on the ground (without dollies) and
the front wheels off the ground. If any
of the loaded wheels or suspension
components are damaged or the vehicle
is being towed with the front wheels on
the ground, use a towing dolly under the
front wheels.
When being towed by a commercial tow
truck and wheel dollies are not used,
the front of the vehicle should always be
lifted, not the rear.
If your vehicle is an AWD vehicle, it must
be towed with a wheel lift and dollies or
flatbed equipment with all the wheels off
the ground.
CAUTION
An AWD vehicle should never be
towed with the wheels on the ground.
This can cause serious damage to the
transmission.
CAUTION

[Do not tow the vehicle with the front
wheels on the ground as this may
cause damage to the vehicle.
OQXI069013

[Do not tow with sling-type
equipment. Use a wheel lift or
flatbed equipment.
OQXI069014

[Do not tow the vehicle with four
wheels in contact with the ground if
it is the vehicle equipped with IVT.
Otherwise, the transmission will be
seriously damaged. Also, make sure
not to tow the vehicle connecting it
with other vehicles including camper
vans.
OQX079026N

Emergency Situations
7-22
WARNING
If your vehicle is equipped with a
rollover sensor, place the ignition
switch in the LOCK/OFF or ACC position
when the vehicle is being towed.
The side impact and curtain air bag
may deploy if the sensor detects the
situation as a rollover.
When towing your vehicle in an
emergency without wheel dollies:
1. Place the ignition switch in the ACC
position.
2. Place the shift lever in N (Neutral).
3. Release the parking brake.
CAUTION
Failure to place the shift lever in N
(Neutral) when being towed with the
front wheels on the ground can cause
internal damage to the transmission.
Removable Towing Hook
OQX079003L
1. Open the liftgate, and remove the
towing hook from the tool case.
2. Remove the hole cover pressing the
lower part of the cover on the front or
rear bumper.
3. Install the towing hook by turning it
clockwise into the hole until it is fully
secured.
4. Remove the towing hook and install
the cover after use.

Emergency Towing
„Front
OQX079003L
„Rear
OQX079015L
If towing is necessary, we recommend
you have it done by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer or a commercial tow
truck service.
If towing service is not available in
an emergency, your vehicle may be
temporarily towed using a cable or chain
secured to the emergency towing hook
at the front (or rear) of the vehicle.
Use extreme caution when towing the
vehicle with a cable or chain. A driver
must be in the vehicle to steer it and
operate the brakes.
Towing in this manner may be done
only on hard-surfaced roads for a short
distance and at low speeds. Also, the
wheels, axles, power train, steering
and brakes must all be in good working
condition.
CAUTION
The driver must be in the vehicle for
steering and braking operations when
the vehicle is being towed. Passengers
other than the driver must not be in the
vehicle.
Always follow these emergency towing
precautions:

[Place the ignition switch in the ACC
position so the steering wheel is not
locked (if equipped).

[Place the shift lever in N (Neutral).

[Release the parking brake.

[Depress the brake pedal with more
force than normal since you will have
reduced braking performance.

[More steering effort will be required
because the power steering system
will be disabled.

[Use a vehicle heavier than your own to
tow your vehicle.

[The drivers of both vehicles should
communicate with each other
frequently.

[Before emergency towing, check that
the hook is not broken or damaged.

[Fasten the towing cable or chain
securely to the hook.

[Do not jerk the hook. Apply steady
and even force.

Emergency Situations
7-24
OQXI069018

[Use a towing cable or chain less than
16 feet (5 m) long. Attach a white or
red cloth (about 12 inch (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 towing.

[Before towing, check intelligent
variable transmission for fluid leaks
under your vehicle. If the intelligent
variable transmission fluid is leaking,
flatbed equipment or a towing dolly
must be used.
NOTICE
Accelerate or decelerate the vehicle
in a slow and gradual manner while
maintaining tension on the tow rope
or chain to start or drive the vehicle,
otherwise tow hooks and the vehicle
may be damaged.
NOTICE
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 towing to avoid serious
damage to the intelligent variable
transmission.
Tie-down Hook
WARNING
Do not use the tie-down hook(s) for
towing purposes. If the tiedown hook(s)
are used for towing, the tie-down
hook(s) or bumper will be damaged and
this could lead to serious injury.
