After Changing Wheels
If you have a tire gauge, remove the valve cap
and check the air pressure. If the pressure is lower than recommended, drive slowly to thenearest service station and inflate to the correctpressure. If it is too high, adjust it until it iscorrect. Always reinstall the valve cap afterchecking or adjusting tire pressure. If the cap isnot replaced, air may leak from the tire. If youlose a valve cap, buy another and install it assoon as possible.
After you have changed wheels, always secure
the flat tire in its place in the luggage room andreturn the jack and tools to their proper storagelocations. D080A01A-GAT

Towing a Car With a Manual Transaxle
o OK FOR AUTOMATIC OR MANUAL TRANSAXLE EQUIPPED VEHICLE WITH NO DAMAGE
o OK FOR AUTOMATIC OR MANUAL
TRANSAXLE EQUIPPED VEHICLE
CAUTION: Your car can be damaged if towed incor- rectly! If your car has to be towed, it should be done by
your Hyundai dealer or a commercial tow truckservice. This will help assure that your car isnot damaged in towing. Also, professionals aregenerally aware of state and local laws govern-ing towing. In any case, rather than risk dam-age to your car, it is suggested that you showthis information to the tow truck operator. Besure that a safety chain system is used and thatlocal laws are observed. o If the car is being towed with the rear wheels
on the ground, be sure the parking brake isreleased.
o If the car is being towed with the front wheels on the ground, be sure that thetransaxle is in neutral. Also, be sure that theignition key is in the "ACC" position. This isnecessary to prevent damage to the steer-ing lock mechanism, which is not designedto hold the front wheels straight while the caris being towed.
o If any of the loaded wheels or suspension components are damaged, a towing dollymust be used.

IF YOU LOSE YOUR KEYS If you lose your keys, many Hyundai dealers can make you a new key if you have your keynumber. If you lock the keys inside your car andyou cannot obtain a new key, many Hyundaidealers can use special tools to open the doorfor you. Information about the key of immobilizer sys- tem (If installed) will be found on page 1-2.
NOTE: Before towing, check the level of the transaxle fluid. If it is below the "HOT" rangeon the dipstick, add fluid. If you cannot addfluid, a towing dolly must be used.
