Trailer or Vehicle Towing Tips Trailer or Vehicle Towing TipsTrailer or Vehicle Towing Tips Trailer or Vehicle Towing Tips
Trailer or Vehicle Towing Tips1. Before towing, check hitch and safety chain
connections as well as proper operation of
the trailer running lights, brake lights, and turn
signals.
2. Always drive your vehicle at a moderate
speed. (Less than 60 mph)
3. Trailer towing requires more fuel than normal
conditions.
4. To maintain engine braking efficiency and
electrical charging performance, do not use
fifth gear (manual transaxle) or overdrive
(automatic transaxle).
5. Always secure items in the trailer to prevent
load shift while driving.
6. Check the condition and air pressure of all
tires on the trailer and your car. Low tire
pressure can seriously affect the handling.
Also check the spare tire.

slowed to such a speed that it is safe to do so,
brake carefully and pull off the road. Drive off
the road as far as possible and park on firm,
level ground. If you are on a divided highway,
do not park in the median area between the
two traffic lanes.
2. When the car is stopped, turn on your emer-
gency hazard flashers, set the parking brake
and put the transaxle in "P" (automatic) or

3-5 The wheel nuts should be loosened slightly be-
fore raising the car. To loosen the nuts, turn the
wrench handle counterclockwise. When doing
this, be sure that the socket is seated completely
over the nut so it cannot slip off. For maximum
leverage, position the wrench so the handle is to
the right as shown in the drawing. Then, while
holding the wrench near the end of the handle,
push down on it with steady pressure. Do not
remove the nuts at this time. Just loosen them
about one-half turn.

After inserting a wrench bar into the wheel nut

shown in the drawing. To raise the vehicle, turn
the wheel nut wrench clockwise. As the jack
begins to raise the vehicle, double check that it is
properly positioned and will not slip. If the jack is
on soft ground or sand, place a board, brick, flat
stone or other object under the base of the jack
to keep it from sinking.
Raise the car high enough so that the fully
inflated spare tire can be installed. To do this, you
will need more ground clearance than is required
to remove the flat tire.

it flat so it cannot roll away. To put the wheel on
the hub, pick up the spare tire, line up the holes
with the studs and slide the wheel onto them. If
this is difficult, tip the wheel slightly and get the
top hole in the wheel lined up with the top stud.
Then jiggle the wheel back and forth until the
wheel can be slid over the other studs.

SNOW TIRES SNOW TIRESSNOW TIRES SNOW TIRES
SNOW TIRESIf you equip your car with snow tires, they
should be the same size and have the same
load capacity as the original tires. Snow tires
should be installed on all four wheels; other-
wise, poor handling may result.
Snow tires should carry 4 psi (28 kPa) more air
pressure than the pressure recommended for
the standard tires on the tire label on the driver
side center pillar outer panel, or up to the
maximum pressure shown on the tire sidewall
whichever is less.
Do not drive faster than 75 mph (120 km/h)

TIRE BALANCING TIRE BALANCINGTIRE BALANCING TIRE BALANCING
TIRE BALANCINGA tire that is out of balance may affect handling
and tire wear. The tires on your Hyundai were
balanced before the car was delivered but may
need balancing again during the years you own
the car.
Whenever a tire is dismounted for repair, it
should be rebalanced before being reinstalled

TIRE TRACTION TIRE TRACTIONTIRE TRACTION TIRE TRACTION
TIRE TRACTIONTire traction can be reduced if you drive on
worn tires, tires that are improperly inflated or
on slippery road surfaces. Tires should be re-
placed when tread wear indicators appear. To
reduce the possibility of losing control, slow
down whenever there is rain, snow or ice on the
road.

The original tires on your car have tread wear
indicators. The tread wear indicators appear
when the tread depth is 0.06 in. (1.6 mm). The
tire should be replaced when these appear as a
solid bar across two or more grooves of the
tread. Always replace your tires with those of
the recommended size. If you change wheels,
the new wheel's rim width and offset must meet
Hyundai specification.
