D060J02O-AATAfter Changing Wheels
If you have a tire gauge, remove the
valve cap and check the air pressure. If
the pressure is lower than recom-
mended, drive slowly to the nearest
service station and inflate to the correct
pressure. If it is too high, adjust it until Wheel nut tightening torque:

it is correct. Always reinstall the valve
cap after checking or adjusting tire
pressure. If the cap is not replaced, air
may leak from the tire. If you lose a
valve cap, buy another and install it as
soon as possible.
After you have changed wheels, al-
ways secure the flat tire in its place and
return the jack and tools to their proper
storage locations.
IF YOUR VEHICLE MUST BE
TOWEDD080A01O-GATIf your vehicle has to be towed, it should be
done by your Hyundai dealer or a commer-
cial tow truck service. This will help assure
that your vehicle is not damaged in towing.
Also, professionals are generally aware of
local laws governing towing. In any case,
rather than risk damage to your car, it is
suggested that you show this information
to the tow truck operator. Be sure that a
safety chain system is used and that all
local laws are observed.
It is recommended that your vehicle be
towed with a wheel lift and dollies or flatbed
equipment with all the wheels off the
ground.
!
CAUTION:
o Your vehicle can be damaged if towed
incorrectly!
o Be sure the transaxle is in neutral.
o When the engine will not start, be sure
the steering is unlocked by placing
the key in the "ACC" position.

not to cause damage to the bumper or
underbody of the vehicle.

D080D04A-AATEMERGENCY TOWING
D080D01TG-A
For emergency towing when no commer-
cial tow vehicle is available, attach a tow
cable, chain or strap to the towing hook
under the front/rear of your car. Do not
attempt to tow your vehicle in this manner
on any unpaved surface. This could result
in serious damage to your car.
Nor should towing be attempted if the
wheels, drive train, axles, steering or
brakes are damaged. Before towing, be
sure the transaxle is in neutral and the key
is in "ACC" (with the engine off) or in the
"ON" position (with the engine running). A
driver must be in the towed car to steer it
and operate the brakes.NOTE:Before towing, check the level of the
automatic transaxle fluid. If it is below
the "HOT" range on the dipstick, add
fluid. If you cannot add fluid, a towing
dolly must be used.
