Emergency Situations8-24
less than 16 feet
OCN7H080006

[ Use a towing cable or chain less than
5 m (16 feet) long. Attach a white or
red cloth (about 30 cm (12 inches)
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 the Dual clutch
transmission for fluid leaks under
your vehicle. If the Dual clutch
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 10mph
(15km/h) and drive less than 1 mile
(1.5 km) when towing to avoid serious
damage to Dual clutch transmission.

[ The Dual clutch transmission vehicle
can be towed to a normal vehicle
only without oil leakage. Check
for oil leaks. Towing the vehicle
with oil leakage may damage the
transmission.

Maintenance9-6
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 if there is any increased
steering effort or looseness in the
steering 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 the intelligent variable
transmission P (Park) function.

[ Check the 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 coolant level in the engine
coolant reservoir.

[ Check the operation of all exterior
lights, including the brake lights, turn
signals and hazard warning flashers.

[ Check the inflation pressures of all
tires including the spare for tires that
are worn, show uneven wear, or are
damaged.

[ Check for loose wheel lug nuts.
At least twice a year:
(for example, every Spring and
Autumn)

[Check radiator, heater and air
conditioning hoses for leaks or
damage.

[ Check windshield washer spray and
wiper operation. Clean wiper blades
with a clean cloth dampened with
washer a fluid.

[ Check headlight alignment.

[ Check muffler, exhaust pipes, shields
and clamps.

[ Check the seat belts for wear and
function.

Engine Coolant/Inverter Coolant
The coolant should be changed at the
intervals specified in the maintenance
schedule.
Dual Clutch Transmission Fluid
Dual clutch transmission fluid should
not be checked under normal usage
conditions.
We recommend that the Intelligent
variable transmission fluid is changed by
an authorized HYUNDAI dealer according
to the maintenance schedule.
Brake Hoses and Lines
Visually check for proper installation,
chafing, cracks, deterioration and any
leakage. Replace any deteriorated or
damaged parts immediately.
Brake Fluid
Check the brake fluid level in the brake
fluid reservoir. The level should be
between the MIN and the MAX marks
on the side of the reservoir. Use only
hydraulic brake fluid conforming to DOT
4 specification..
Brake Discs, Pads, Calipers and
Rotors
Check the pads for excessive wear, discs
for run out and wear, and calipers for
fluid leakage.
Suspension Mounting Bolts
Check the suspension connections for
looseness or damage. Retighten to the
specified torque.
Steering Gear Box, Linkage &
Boots/Lower Arm Ball Joint
With the vehicle stopped and the engine
off, check for excessive freeplay in the
steering wheel. Check the linkage for
bends or damage. Check the dust boots
and ball joints for deterioration, cracks,
or damage.
Replace any damaged parts.
Drive Shafts and Boots
Check the drive shafts, boots and clamps
for cracks, deterioration, or damage.
Replace any damaged parts and, if
necessary, repack the grease.
Air Conditioning Refrigerant
Check the air conditioning lines and
connections for leakage and damage.
