What to do in an emergency
When towing your vehicle in an emer- gency without wheel dollies :
1. Set the ignition switch in the ACC posi-tion.
2. Place the transaxle shift lever in N (Neutral).
3. Release the hand brake.
Emergency towing
If towing is necessary, we recommend
you to have it done by an authorised
Hyundai dealer or a commercial tow
truck service.
If towing service is not available in an
emergency, your vehicle may be tem-
porarily towed using a cable or chain
secured to the emergency towing hook
under the front (or rear) of the vehicle.Use extreme caution when towing the
vehicle. A driver must be in the vehicle to
steer it and operate the brakes.
Towing in this manner may be done only
on hard-surfaced roads for a short dis-
tance and at low speeds. Also, the
wheels, axles, power train, steering and
brakes must all be in good condition.
Do not use the tow hooks to pull a vehi-
cle out of mud, sand or other condi-
tions from which the vehicle cannot be
driven out under its own power.
Avoid towing a vehicle heavier than the vehicle doing the towing.
The drivers of both vehicles should communicate with each other frequent-
ly.
CAUTION
Failure to place the transaxle shift
lever in N (Neutral) may cause inter-nal damage to the transaxle.OHD066005

What to do in an emergency
Emergency towing precautions
Turn the ignition switch to ACC so thesteering wheel isn’t locked.
Place the transaxle shift lever in N (Neutral).
Release the hand bake.
Press the brake pedal with more force than normal since you will have
reduced brake performance.
More steering effort will be required because the power steering system
will be disabled.
If you are driving down a long hill, the brakes may overheat and brake per-
formance will be reduced. Stop often
and let the brakes cool off. Tie-down hook
(for flatbed towing)
OHD066006L
WARNING
Do not use the hooks under the
front of the vehicle for towing pur-
poses. These hooks are designed
ONLY for transport tie-down. If the
tie-down hooks are used for tow-
ing, the tie-down hooks or front
bumper will be damaged and this
could lead to serious injury.
CAUTION - Automatic transaxle
If the car is being towed with all four
wheels on the ground, it can betowed only from the front. Be sure that the transaxle is in neutral. Do
not tow at speeds greater than 40km/h and for more than 25 km. Be sure the steering is unlocked byplacing the ignition switch in the
ACC position. A driver must be in the towed vehicle to operate thesteering and brakes.

OWNER MAINTENANCE
The following lists are vehicle checks and
inspections that should be performed by
the owner or an authorised Hyundaidealer at the frequencies indicated to
help ensure safe, dependable operation
of your vehicle.
Any adverse conditions should be
brought to the attention of your dealer as
soon as possible.
These Owner Maintenance Checks are
generally not covered by warranties and
you may be charged for labour, parts and
lubricants used. Owner maintenance schedule
When you stop for fuel:
Check the engine oil level.
Check coolant level in coolant reser-
voir.
Check the windshield washer fluid level.
Look for low or under-inflated tyres.
While operating your vehicle:
Note any changes in the sound of the exhaust or any smell of exhaust fumes
in the vehicle.
Check for vibrations in the steering wheel. Notice any increased steering
effort or looseness in the steering
wheel, or change in its straight-aheadposition.
Notice if your vehicle constantly turns slightly or “pulls” to one side when trav-
elling on smooth, level road.
When stopping, listen and check for unusual sounds, pulling to one side,
increased brake pedal travel or “hard-
to-push” brake pedal.
If any slipping or changes in the oper- ation of your transaxle occurs, check
the transaxle fluid level.
Check automatic transaxle P (Park) function.
Check hand brake.
Check for fluid leaks under your vehicle (water dripping from the air condition-
ing system during or after use is nor-mal).
WARNING
Be careful when checking your
engine coolant level when the
engine is hot. Scalding hot coolant
and steam may blow out under
pressure. This could cause burns
or other serious injury.

TYRES AND WHEELS
Tyre care
For proper maintenance, safety, and
maximum fuel economy, you must
always maintain recommended tyre infla-
tion pressures and stay within the load
limits and weight distribution recom-
mended for your vehicle. Recommended cold tyre inflation pressures All tyre pressures (including the spare)
should be checked every day when the
tyres are cold. “Cold Tyres” means the
vehicle has not been driven for at least
three hours or driven less than 1.6 km(one mile).
Recommended pressures must be main-
tained for the best ride, top vehicle han-
dling, and minimum tyre wear. All specifications (sizes and pressures)
can be found on a label attached to the
vehicle.
WARNING - Tyre underin-
flation
Severe underinflation (70 kPa (10
psi) or more) can lead to severe
heat build-up, causing blowouts,tread separation and other tyre fail-ures that can result in the loss of
vehicle control leading to severe
injury or death. This risk is much
higher on hot days and when driv-
ing for protracted periods at highspeeds.

Maintenance
WARNING - Tyre inflation
Overinflation or underinflation can
reduce tyre life, adversely affect
vehicle handling, and lead to sud-
den tyre failure. This could result in
loss of vehicle control and potential
injury.
CAUTION - Tyre pressure
Always observe the following:
Check tyre pressure when the tyres are cold. (After vehicle hasbeen parked for at least threehours or hasn't been driven more
than 1.6 km (one mile) since start- up.)
Check the pressure of your spare tyre each time you check thepressure of other tyres.
Never overload your vehicle. Be careful not to overload a vehicleluggage rack if your vehicle is equipped with one.
Worn, old tyres can cause acci- dents. If your tread is badly worn,or if your tyres have been dam- aged, replace them.
CAUTION
Underinflation also results in
excessive wear, poor handlingand reduced fuel economy. Wheeldeformation also is possible.
Keep your tyre pressures at theproper levels. If a tyre frequentlyneeds refilling, have it checked byan authorised Hyundai dealer.
Overinflation produces a harsh ride, excessive wear at the centreof the tyre tread, and a greaterpossibility of damage from road
hazards.
CAUTION
Warm tyres normally exceed rec- ommended cold tyre pressuresby 28 to 41 kPa (4 to 6 psi). Do notrelease air from warm tyres to
adjust the pressure or the tyres will be underinflated.
Be sure to reinstall the tyre infla- tion valve caps. Without the valvecap, dirt or moisture could get
into the valve core and cause air leakage. If a valve cap is missing,install a new one as soon as pos-
sible.

Checking tyre inflation pressure
Check your tyres once a month or more.
Also, check the tyre pressure of the
spare tyre.
How to check
Use a good quality gauge to check tyre
pressures. You can not tell if your tyres
are properly inflated simply by looking at
them. Radial tyres may look properly
inflated even when they're underinflated.
Check the tyre's inflation pressure when
the tyres are cold. - "Cold" means your
vehicle has been sitting for at least three
hours or driven no more than 1.6 km (1mile). Remove the valve cap from the tyre valve
stem. Press the tyre gauge firmly onto
the valve to get a pressure measure-
ment. If the cold tyre inflation pressurematches the recommended pressure on
the tyre and loading information label, no
further adjustment is necessary. If the
pressure is low, add air until you reachthe recommended amount.
If you overfill the tyre, release air by pushing on the metal stem in the centre
of the tyre valve. Recheck the tyre pres-
sure with the tyre gauge. Be sure to put
the valve caps back on the valve stems.
They help prevent leaks by keeping out
dirt and moisture.
Tyre rotation
To equalise tread wear, it is recommend-
ed that the tyres be rotated every 12,000km (7,500 miles) or sooner if irregular
wear develops.
During rotation, check the tyres for cor-
rect balance.
When rotating tyres, check for uneven
wear and damage. Abnormal wear is
usually caused by incorrect tyre pres-
sure, improper wheel alignment, out-of-
balance wheels, severe braking or
severe cornering. Look for bumps or
bulges in the tread or side of tyre.
Replace the tyre if you find either of
these conditions. Replace the tyre if fab-
ric or cord is visible. After rotation, be
sure to bring the front and rear tyre pres-
sures to specification and check lug nut
tightness.
Refer to Section 8, “Specifications”.

Maintenance
Disc brake pads should be inspected forwear whenever tyres are rotated.
✽✽NOTICE
Rotate radial tyres that have an asym-
metric tread pattern only from front to
rear and not from right to left.
Wheel alignment and tyre balance
The wheels on your vehicle were aligned
and balanced carefully at the factory to
give you the longest tyre life and best
overall performance.
In most cases, you will not need to have
your wheels aligned again. However, if
you notice unusual tyre wear or your
vehicle pulling one way or the other, the
alignment may need to be reset.
If you notice your vehicle vibrating when
driving on a smooth road, your wheels
may need to be rebalanced.
WARNING
Do not mix bias ply and radial ply
tyres under any circumstances.
This may cause unusual handling
characteristics that could result in
death, severe injury, or property
damage.S2BLA790
