Tow at the illustrated point. Using any part other than the designated towing hooks could result in damage to ve- hicle body. The regulations concern-ing towing may differ from country to country. It is recommended that you may obeythe regulations in your area. If your vehicle is to be towed, pay careful attention to the following points.
1. Move the gearshift lever to neutral.
2. Be sure the towing speed is within
the legal limit. 3. On vehicles with steering lock sys-
tem, turn the ignition switch to "ACC"to unlock the steering wheel. If you will be using the turn signals while being towed, turn the ignition switchto "ON" position.
4. To prevent the exhaust gas from
entering the towing vehicle, set theair selection lever on the heater control to the recirculation position.
5. Turn on the hazard warning lamps.
6. During towing, make sure that close contact is maintained between thedrivers of both vehicles, and thatthe vehicles travel at low speed. Avoid abrupt starting or stopping which might subject the vehicles toshock.
7. If the transmission is malfunction-
ing or damaged, tow the vehiclewith the rear wheels raised off the ground.
8. If the vehicle is equipped with a brake booster system, the brakeboosting power will be lost and greater force will be required todepress the brake pedal.

C190B01S-AAT Trailer Hitches Select the proper hitch and ball combi- nation, making sure that its location iscompatible with that of the trailer or vehicle being towed. Use a quality non-equalizing hitch which distributesthe tongue load uniformly throughout the chassis. The hitch should be bolted securely to the car and installed by a qualified technician. DO NOT USE A HITCHDESIGNED FOR TEMPORARY IN- STALLATION AND NEVER USE ONE THAT ATTACHES ONLY TO THEBUMPER. C190C02P-GAT Trailer Brakes If your trailer is equipped with a braking system, make sure it conforms to fed-eral and/or local regulations and that it is properly installed and operating cor- rectly. NOTE: If you tow a trailer or vehicle, your car will require more frequent main-tenance due to the additional load. See "Maintenance Under Severe Usage Conditions" on page 6-11.
CAUTION:
o Never connect a trailer brake sys- tem directly to the vehicle brakesystem.
o When towing a trailer on steep
grades (in excess of 6%) pay closeattention to the engine coolant temperature gauge to ensure the engine does not overheat. If theneedle of the coolant temperature gauge moves across the dial to- wards "H" (HOT), pull over and

C190A01A-GAT TRAILER OR VEHICLE TOWING If you are considering towing with your car, you should first check with yourProvince Department of Motor Vehicles to determine their legal requirements. Since laws vary from province to prov-ince, the requirements for towing trail- ers, cars, other types of vehicles, or apparatus may differ. Ask your Hyundaidealer for further details before towing.
CAUTION:
Do not do any towing with your carduring its first 2,000 km (1,200 miles)in order to allow the engine to prop- erly break in. Failure to heed this caution may result in serious en-gine or transmission damage.

stop as soon as it is safe to do so, and allow the engine to idle until itcools down. You may proceed once the engine has cooled suffi- ciently.
C190D01A-GAT Safety Chains Should the hitch connection between your car and the trailer or vehicle you are towing fail, the trailer or vehicle could wander dangerously across otherlanes of traffic and ultimately collide with another vehicle. To eliminate this potentially danger-ous situation, safety chains, attached between your car and the trailer or towed vehicle, are required in mostprovinces. C190E05P-GAT Trailer Weight Limit Tongue loads can be increased or decreased by redistributing the load inthe trailer. This can be verified by checking the total weight of the loaded trailer and then checking the load onthe tongue.
NOTE:
1. Never load the trailer with more
weight in the back than in the front. About 60% of the trailerload should be in the front half on the trailer and the remaining 40% in the rear.
2. The total gross vehicle weight with trailer must not exceed theGross Vehicle Weight Rating(GVWR) shown on the vehicle identification plate (see page 1- 4). The total gross vehicle weightis the combined weight of the vehicle, driver, all passengers and their luggage, cargo, hitch,trailer tongue load and other op- tional equipment.

!WARNING:
o Improperly loading your car and trailer can serious affect its steer- ing and braking performance causing a crash in which youmay be seriously injured.
o For automatic transmission ve-
hicles, the trailer should be towedwith the towing vehicle unloaded, with the exception of the driver. Otherwise, the automatic trans-mission oil temperature may rise to a temperature that may result in serious damage of the auto- matic transmission. C190F02A-GAT Trailer or Vehicle Towing Tips
1. Before towing, check hitch and
safety chain connections as well as proper operation of the trailer run- ning lights, brake lights, and turn signals.
2. Always drive your vehicle at a mod- erate speed (Less than 100 km/h).
3. Trailer towing requires more fuel than normal conditions.
4. To maintain engine braking effi-
ciency and electrical charging per-formance, do not use fifth gear (manual transmission) or overdrive (automatic transmission).
5. Always secure items in the trailer to prevent load shift while driving.
6. Check the condition and air pres- sure of all tires on the trailer and your car. Low tire pressure can se- riously affect the handling. Alsocheck the spare tire.
7. The vehicle/trailer combination is
more affected by crosswind andbuffeting. When being passed by a large vehicle, keep a constant speed and steer straight ahead. If there is too much wind buffeting,slow down to get out of the othervehicle’s air turbulence.
8. When parking your car and trailer,
especially on a hill, be sure to followall the normal precautions. Turn your front wheel into the curb, set the parking brake firmly, and put thetransmission in 1st or "R" (manual transmission) or "P" (automatic transmission). In addition, placewheel chocks at each of the trailer’s tires.
9. If the trailer has electric brakes, start your vehicle and trailer mov-ing, and then apply the trailer brake controller by hand to be sure thebrakes are working. This lets you check your electrical connection at the same time.
10.During your trip, check occasion- ally to be sure that the load issecure, and that the lights and anytrailer brakes are still working.
11.Avoid jerky starts, sudden accel-
eration or sudden stops.
12.Avoid sharp turns and rapid lane changes.

21BLEEDING THE FUEL SYSTEM
CAUTION:
If overheating should occur when towing, (temperature gauge reads near red zone), taking the followingaction may reduce or eliminate the problem.
1. Turn off the air conditioner.
2. Reduce highway speed.
3. Select a lower gear when going uphill.
4. While in stop and go traffic, place
the gear selection in park or neu-tral and idle the engine at a higher speed.
! E090A01P-GAT (Diesel Motor) The fuel system should be bled to remove air as described in the illustra- tion if the fuel supply is exhaustedduring travel, when the fuel filter is replaced, or if the vehicle is not used for a long time.
1. Loosen the air plug at the top of the
fuel filter. E090A01P
13.Avoid holding the brake pedal down
too long or too frequently. This could cause the brakes to overheat, re- sulting in reduced braking efficiency.
14.When going down a hill, shift into a
lower gear and use the engine brak-ing effect. When ascending a long grade, downshift the transmissionto a lower gear and reduce speed to reduce chances of engine over- loading and/or overheating.
15.If you have to stop while going uphill, do not hold the vehicle inplace by pressing on the accelera-tor. This can cause the automatic transmission to overheat. Use the parking brake or footbrake.
NOTE: When towing, check transmission fluid more frequently.

2. Pump the hand pump until there are
no more bubbles in the fuel coming out of the air plug. When doing this,place a cloth around the air plug to prevent the escaping fuel from spew- ing about.
3. Tighten the air plug when there are no more bubbles in the fuel.
4. Continue pumping until the hand pump becomes stiff.
5. Finally, check to be sure that there
is no leakage of fuel.If in doubt, consult your nearest authorized HYUNDAI dealer. E090A02P
REMOVAL OF WATER FROM THE FUEL FILTER
E100A02P-GAT (Diesel Motor) If the fuel filter warning lamp illumi- nates during driving, it indicates that water has accumulated in the fuel fil-ter. If this occurs, remove the water as described below.
1. Loosen the drain plug at the bottom
of the fuel filter. Drain plug
!WARNING:
o Do not smoke or have any other open flame near the vehicle while bleeding the fuel system.
o Be sure to carefully clean away
