o When driving in extreme conditions, the
windscreen wiper blades may fail to clear the screen properly due to the formation ofice upon the blade edge. It will therefore benecessary to periodically remove such iceto restore their efficiency.
o If the power operated door mirrors become frozen, attempts to adjust these may dam-age the mechanism.
o The formation of snow or ice built up inside the wheel arches may interfere with the roadwheels or steering mechanism. In such in-stances, unusual noises or an increase insteering effort may result. Therefore, ensurethat the wheel arches are checked periodi-cally and any accumulated snow or iceremoved.
o It is advisable to carry emergency equip- ment including, torch, shovel, tow rope, blan-kets etc., if a journey is to be undertaken intoareas of severe road conditions.

Door Locks
Should the door lock mechanism become fro-
zen, a proprietary lock de-icer should be used.Alternatively, warming the door key may thawthe door lock. However, the key should behandled carefully to avoid burning the fingers.
Never attempt to thaw a frozen door lock using
hot water, since the water will eventually freezeand compound the problem.
NOTE:The proper temperature for using the immo-
bilizer key is from -40°F (-40°C) to 176°F(80°C). If you heat the immobilizer key over176°F (80°C) to open the frozen lock, it maycause damage to the transponder in its head. SC170E1-E Windscreen Washers and Wipers
The windscreen washer bottle should be filled
with a solution of water and a proprietary winter screen wash additive. The windscreen wipersshould not be used if the blades are frozen tothe windscreen or if they are covered withsnow, before this is removed.
NOTE: Never allow undiluted screen washer fluid
additive to spill upon the paintwork or use engine coolant anti-freeze since damage tothe paintwork may result.

TOWING ATTACHMENTS
It is strongly recommended that only an Hyundai
Approved towing attachment is used to ensure that the loads placed upon the body structureare correctly distributed. The use of a nonapproved attachment will result in the invalida-tion of the vehicle warranty. Hyundai towingattachments are designed and constructed toensure maximum towing performance and easeof fitment. A range of accessories includingelectrical kits and mirrors are available throughthe Hyundai dealer network.
It is of the utmost importance that those areas
of the vehicle which are subjected to greaterstress during towing are maintained in accor-dance with the recommendations given at theend of this book. In addition, the daily operatingchecks relating to engine oil, transaxle oil andtyres must be performed at each refuelling toensure maximum reliability and safety.
The use of a proprietary stabiliser will assist in
achieving an inherently stable outfit but whilstthe use of such equipment will improve thecharacteristics of a balanced outfit, it will notcompensate for a badly loaded and thereforeunstable outfit.
The tyres and braking equipment fitted to the
trailer or caravan must be maintained in accor-dance with the recommendations of the manu-facturer. Special attention should be paid totyres which deteriorate through time and expo- sure rather than as a result of the distancestowed. The inside walls of the tyres should beinspected along with the outside walls for crack-ing and damage. The trailer wheel nut torquemust be checked on a regular basis, preferablybefore each towing session.
The trailer towbar hitch and the safety catch
mechanism must be maintained in good work-ing order. The trailer break away cable or cableshould be inspected for damage and should beattached to the vehicle towing attachment eachand every time the trailer is hitched to thevehicle.
Whilst towing, the performance of the vehicle
will be reduced in terms of acceleration, brakingand handling due to the increased loads placedupon the vehicle. The driver should anticipatethe change in characteristics and adjust thedriving style in keeping with these changes.Care should be exercised when cornering andbraking to prevent the outfit becoming uncon-trollable by reducing cornering speeds and al-lowing increased braking distances.
The driver should exercise care to ensure that
when pulling away from rest particularly onuphill gradients the clutch unit is not subjectedto excessive slippage which will reduce theuseful life of this component. Use of the "Over-drive Off" "2" and "L" positions when drivingvehicles with automatic transaxle will assistwith braking performance when long down hill gradients are encountered. Improved accelera-tion performance will be available by selecting"Overdrive Off","2", or "1" depending upon roadspeed if it is found that the transaxle unit makesan undesirable upshift whilst hill climbing orovertaking. The transaxle unit should be oper-ated in "D" with the Overdrive "On" undernormal circumstances to enhance fuel economyand reduce noise and engine wear.

SG020B1-E DAILY OPERATING CHECKSThe following items should be checked on a daily basis or whenever the vehicle is refuelled, which-ever occurs sooner.
o Engine oil level.
o Engine coolant level.
o Power steering fluid level.
o Brake fluid level.
o Windscreen washer fluid level.
o Battery condition.
o Tyre condition and pressures.
o Operation and cleanliness of all lighting equip-
ment.
o Windscreen wiper and washer operation.
o Horn operation.
o Warning lamp operation.
o Adjustment and cleanliness of mirrors.
o Seat and seat belt adjustment and operation.
o Fluid leakage. The vehicle must not be driven if the daily oper- ating checks indicate that any item of equipmentrelated to the safety or roadworthiness of thevehicle is not functioning correctly. SG030A1-E ENGINE OILThe correct engine oil level is of paramount importance. An excessively high or low oil levelmay result in irreparable damage being sus-tained by the engine. The engine oil level must bechecked on a daily basis or whenever the vehicleis refuelled, whichever occurs sooner.In addition, it is imperative that only an approvedgrade and specification of oil is used to avoid thepossibility of serious engine damage and prema-ture wear. The use of "budget price" oil is a falseeconomy that must be avoided if the maximumreliability and useful life is to be obtained from thevehicle.
SG030B02GK-E Recommended Oil A multi grade oil having a specification which meets A.P.I. specification of SH, SG or above isrecommended. The oil viscosity should be se-lected according to the operating environment ofthe engine by means of the table shown below.The engine oil recommendations are complete inthemselves and the use of additives is neitherrequired nor recommended. The use of engineoil additives may result in invalidation of thevehicle warranty.
