o The formation of snow or ice built up inside the wheel arches may inter- fere with the road wheels or steering mechanism. In such instances, un- usual noises or an increase in steer-ing effort may result. Therefore, ensure that the wheel arches are checked periodically and any accu-mulated snow or ice removed.
o It is advisable to carry emergency
equipment including, torch, shovel,tow rope, blankets etc., if a journey is to be undertaken into areas of severe road conditions.TRAILER AND CARAVAN TOWING
!
C195F01A-EAT TOWING ATTACHMENTS It is strongly recommended that only an Hyundai Approved towing attach-ment is used to ensure that the loads placed upon the body structure are correctly distributed. The use of a nonapproved attachment will result in the invalidation of the vehicle warranty. Hyundai towing attachments are de-signed and constructed to ensure maximum towing performance and ease of fitment. A range of accesso-ries including electrical kits are avail- able through the Hyundai dealer net- work. It is of the utmost importance that those areas of the vehicle which aresubjected to greater stress during tow- ing are maintained in accordance with the recommendations given at the endof this book. In addition, the daily oper- ating checks relating to engine oil, transmission oil and tyres must beperformed at each refuelling to ensure maximum reliability and safety.

WARNING:
It is not recommended that the ve- hicle be used for towing until thefirst 1,000 miles of Running In has been completed. All Hyundai AC- CENT models are suited to towingtrailers and caravans up to the lim- its indicated on page 2-21. This models fitted with automatictransaxle have a transaxle oil cooler and further transaxle cooling should not be required. C190E01L

vehicle towing attachment each and every time the trailer is hitched to thevehicle. Whilst towing, the performance of the vehicle will be reduced in terms of acceleration, braking and handling due to the increased loads placed upon thevehicle. The driver should anticipate the change in characteristics and ad- just the driving style in keeping withthese changes. Care should be exer- cised when cornering and braking to prevent the outfit becoming uncontrol-lable by reducing cornering speeds and allowing increased braking dis- tances. The driver should exercise care to ensure that when pulling away fromrest particularly on uphill gradients the clutch unit is not subjected to exces- sive slippage which will reduce theuseful life of this component. Use of the "Overdrive Off", "2" and "L" posi- tions when driving vehicles with auto-matic transmission will assist with brak- ing performance when long down hill gradients are encountered. Improved acceleration performance will be avail-able by selecting "Overdrive Off","2",or "1" depending upon road speed if it is found that the transmission unit makes an undesirable upshift whilsthill climbing or overtaking. The trans- mission unit should be operated in "D" with the Overdrive "On" under normalcircumstances to enhance fuel economy and reduce noise and en- gine wear.

The use of a proprietary stabiliser willassist in achieving an inherently stableoutfit but whilst the use of such equip- ment will improve the characteristics of a balanced outfit, it will not compen-sate for a badly loaded and therefore unstable outfit. The tyres and braking equipment fitted to the trailer or caravan must be main- tained in accordance with the recom-mendations of the manufacturer. Spe- cial attention should be paid to tyres which deteriorate through time andexposure rather than as a result of the distances towed. The inside walls of the tyres should be inspected alongwith the outside walls for cracking and damage. The trailer wheel nut torque must be checked on a regular basis,preferably before each towing ses- sion. The trailer hitch and the safety catch mechanism must be maintained in good working order. The trailer break awaycable or chain should be inspected for damage and should be attached to the

7. The vehicle/trailer combination ismore affected by crosswind and buffeting. When being passed by a large vehicle, keep a constant speedand steer straight ahead. If there is too much wind buffeting slow down to get out of the other vehicle's airturbulence.
8. When parking your car and trailer,
especially on a hill, be sure tofollow all the normal precautions. Turn your front wheel into the curb, set the parking brake firmly, andput the transaxle in 1st or Reverse (manual) or Park (automatic). In addition, place wheel chocks ateach of the trailer's tyres.
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 the brakes are working. This lets youcheck 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 any trailer brakes are still working.
C190F02A-EAT Trailer or Vehicle Towing Tips
1. Before towing, check towbar hitch
and safety cable connections as well as proper operation of the trailer running lights, brake lights, and turn signals.
2. Always drive your vehicle at a mod- erate speed (Less than 60 MPH)
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 transaxle) or overdrive (automatic transaxle).
5. Always secure items in the trailer to prevent load shift whilst driving.
6. Check the condition and air pres- sure of all tyres on the trailer and your car. Low tyre pressure can seriously affect the handling. Alsocheck the spare tyre.
C190G01A-EAT Important Trailer Weight Infor- mation The Maximum Towable Weight of your Hyundai Accent will be reduced if thevehicle is load. The Maximum Towable Weight for a fully load is vehicle is calculated asfollows:
1. Find the Vehicle Identification Num-
ber (VIN) plate (see section 8).
2. Note the top 2 weights (in kg) of the
4 lines of weight information on the VIN plate.
3. Subtract the weight on line 1 from
line 2. This result (in kg) is themaximum towable weight of a fully loaded vehicle. For more information, contact yourlocal Hyundai Dealer.

SD020B1-E If The Engine Cannot Be Cranked
1. If the vehicle is fitted with manual
transaxle, ensure that the clutch pedal is depressed whilst cranking the engine. If the vehicle is fittedwith automatic transaxle, ensure that the transaxle selector is at the "P" or"N" position.
2. Check the battery terminals and connections to ensure that theseare clean and also tight.
SD020A1-E Seek assistance from the nearest Hyundai dealer with regard to themethod of ignition and fuel system diagnosis.
WARNING:
If the engine refuses to start, no attempt should be made to push or tow start the vehicle. Vehicles with automatic transaxle or fuel injec-tion will not be able to be started in this manner since no drive is trans- mitted through the automatictransaxle whilst the engine is not running, and in the case of fuel injected derivatives, the fuel pumpwill not operate under tow start conditions. In addition, if the ve- hicle is equipped with an exhaustcatalyst, damage to the catalyst may result if the vehicle is tow started. 3. If the ignition warning lights dim
when the engine is cranked and the battery terminals have been checked, a discharged battery is indicated.
4. Do not attempt to push or tow start the vehicle, refer to "Jump Starting"for information regarding enginestarting when the battery is dis- charged.

!WARNING:
Motor vehicle batteries contain sulphuric acid and emit hydrogen gas. Protective clothing should beworn and care exercised to prevent the acid from coming into contact with skin or clothing and the ve-hicle. Naked lights should not be permitted in the vicinity of the bat- tery. Care should be exercised toprevent sparks occurring during connection. If acid accidentally comes into contact with skin oreyes, the affected area should im- mediately be flushed with copious amounts of water and medical as-sistance sought. 1. Ensure that the booster battery is
12 volt type. If the booster battery isinstalled in another vehicle, ensure that the two vehicles are not touch- ing.
2. Turn off all unnecessary electrical equipment in both vehicles.
3. Ensure that the engine of the ve- hicle providing the jump start is run- ning prior to connection of the jump cables.
4. Connect the red jump cable to the positive (+) terminal of the boosterbattery and the other end to thepositive (+) terminal of the dis- charged battery.
5. Attach the black jump cable to the
negative (-) terminal of the boosterbattery, and the other end to a ground point within the engine compart-ment of the vehicle with the flat battery. Do not connect to the nega- tive battery terminal of the flat bat-tery since sparks may be generated with the subsequent risk of explo- sion.
6. Raise the booster vehicle engine speed to 2,000 r.p.m. and start theengine of the vehicle with the flatbattery.

!
D030A01TB-EAT If the temperature gauge indicates overheating:
1. Pull off the road and stop as soon as
it is safe to do so.
2. Place the gear selector lever in "P"
(automatic), or neutral (manual transaxle) and set the parking brake. If the air conditioning is on, turn it off.
3. If coolant is running out under the car or steam is coming out from thebonnet, stop the engine. Do not open the bonnet until the coolanthas stopped running or the steam- ing has stopped. If there is no visible loss of coolant and no steam, leavethe engine running and check to be sure the engine cooling fan is oper- ating.If the fan is not running, turn the engine off.
4. Check to see if the water pump drive belt is missing. If it is not missing,check to see that it is tight. If the drive belt seems to be satisfactory,check for coolant leaking from the radiator, hoses or under the car. (If the air conditioning had been in use,it is normal for cold water to be draining from it). WARNING:
Whilst the engine is running, keep hands and clothing away from mov-ing parts such as the fan and drive belts to prevent injury.
WARNING (Diesel only):
Never work on injection system with engine running or within 30 sec- onds after shutting off engine. High pressure pump, rail, injectors andhigh pressure pipes are subject to high pressure even after the engine stopped. The fuel jet produced byfuel leaks may cause serious in- jury, if it touch the body. People using pacemakers should not movethan 12 in.(30 cm) closer to the ECU or wiring harness within the engine room whilst engine is running, sincethe high currents in the Common Rail system produce considerable magnetic fields. 5. If the water pump drive belt is broken
or coolant is leaking out, stop theengine immediately and call the near- est Hyundai dealer for assistance.
!WARNING:
Do not remove the radiator cap when the engine is hot since steam and boiling water may be ejected fromthe radiator resulting in burns or scalding.
6. If the cause of the overheating can- not be found, wait until the engine temperature has returned to nor- mal. Then, if coolant has been lost, carefully remove the radiator capand add water to bring the fluid level in the reservoir up to the base of the radiator fill opening. Fill the coolantexpansion tank to the halfway mark.
7. Proceed with caution until it is es-
tablished that the engine is operat-ing normally. If the engine over- heats repeatedly, the advice of a Hyundai dealer should be sought.

5VEHICLE MAINTENANCE REQUIREMENTS
2MAINTENANCE AND SER- VICING REQUIREMENTS
SF020A1-E To ensure the continued reliability and safety of the vehicle, certain routine maintenance operations are requiredat specific mileage or time intervals.It is the responsibility of the vehicleowner to ensure that the maintenanceschedules shown in both this Owners Manual and the Warranty and Service Passport are adhered to.The new vehicle warranty may beinvalidated if the routine maintenanceoperations are not performed in line with the recommendations outlined and the safety and durability of thevehicle adversely affected.It is recommended that all mainte-nance operations with the exceptionof the daily operating checks are en- trusted to a Hyundai dealer to ensure that the latest repair and maintenanceprocedures and specialized servicing tools are employed. In addition, the use of genuine Hyundai replacementparts will ensure that the vehicle safety and performance will not be compro- mised. NOTE:
The inspection and testing of cer-
tain electronic fuel injection/engine management and automatic trans- mission control systems requirespecialised electronic equipment specifically designed for Hyundai vehicles. The use of general pur-pose electrical test equipment may result in damage to the control unit microprocessors.
SF020C2-E
Specified Scheduled Procedures
The Specified scheduled procedures
are listed in the maintenance chartsbeginning at page 5-3. The opera- tions specified must be performed at the time or mileage intervals shownirrespective of whether the mileage interval has been reached before the specified time interval. Certain lubricants and components
degrade with both time and mileage(e.g. engine oil and brake fluid) and therefore it is not permissable to base the maintenance schedule upon mile-age alone. It is strongly recommended that the maintenance operations are performed by the factory-trained or distributor-trained technicians at yourHyundai dealer because of the need for specialized knowledge and tooling and to ensure that no possibility ofinvalidating the manufacturers war- ranty exists.
The maintenance schedules relate to
vehicles operated under normal con-ditions, vehicles which are operated under adverse conditions will requiremore frequent maintenance which is described at page 5-6. NOTE:
Service schedules may change de-
pending on individual country needs. Please ask your local Hyundai dealer for a copy of the service schedule that relates to thatcountry.
