Features of your vehicle
Fuel gauge
The fuel gauge indicates the approxi- mate amount of fuel remaining in the fueltank.
The fuel tank capacity is given in sec-
tion 8.The fuel gauge is supplemented by
a low fuel warning light, which will illumi-
nate when the fuel tank is nearly empty.
Odometer/Tripmeter (if equipped)
You can choose the odometer, tripmeter
A or tripmeter B by pressing the TRIP
button for less than 1 second.

WARNING - Fuel gauge
Running out of fuel can expose
vehicle occupants to danger.
You must stop and obtain addition-
al fuel as soon as possible after thewarning light comes on or when the
gauge indicator comes close to the
E level.

If you are considering towing your car,
you should first check with your country's
Department of Motor Vehicles to deter-
mine their legal requirements.
Since laws vary the requirements for tow-
ing trailers, cars, or other types of vehi-
cles or apparatus may differ. Ask an
authorised Hyundai dealer for further
details before towing.
Your vehicle can tow a trailer. To identify
what the vehicle trailering capacity is for
your vehicle, you should read the infor-
mation in “Weight of the trailer” thatappears later in this section.
Remember that trailering is different than
just driving your vehicle by itself.
Trailering means changes in handling,
durability, and fuel economy. Successful,
safe trailering requires correct equip-
ment, and it has to be used properly.This section contains many time-tested,
important trailering tips and safety rules.
Many of these are important for your
safety and that of your passengers.
Please read this section carefully before
you pull a trailer. Load-pulling components such as the
engine, transaxle, wheel assemblies, and
tyres are forced to work harder against
the load of the added weight. The engine
is required to operate at relatively higher
speeds and under greater loads. This
additional burden generates extra heat.
The trailer also adds considerably to
wind resistance, increasing the pulling
requirements.
TRAILER TOWING
WARNING
- Towing a trail-
er
If you don't use the correct equip-
ment and drive improperly, you can
lose control when you pull a trailer.
For example, if the trailer is too
heavy, the brakes may not work
well - or even at all. You and your
passengers could be seriously or
fatally injured. Pull a trailer only if
you have followed all the steps inthis section.
WARNING - Weight limits
Before towing, make sure the total
trailer weight, gross combination
weight, gross vehicle weight, grossaxle weight and trailer tongue loadare all within the limits.
CAUTION
Pulling a trailer improperly can damage your vehicle and result incostly repairs not covered by your warranty. To pull a trailer correctly,
follow the advice in this section.

Tyre replacement
If the tyre is worn evenly, a tread wear indicator will appear as a solid band
across the tread. This shows there is lessthan 1.6 mm (1/16 inch) of tread left on
the tyre. Replace the tyre when this hap-
pens.
Do not wait for the band to appear across
the entire tread before replacing the tyre.
WARNING - Replacing
tyres
Driving on worn-out tyres is very hazardous and will reduce brak-
ing effectiveness, steering accu-
racy, and traction.
Your vehicle is equipped with tyres designed to provide for safe
ride and handling capability. Do
not use a size and type of tyre
and wheel that is different from
the one that is originally installed
on your vehicle. It can affect the
safety and performance of your
vehicle, which could lead to han-
dling failure or rollover and seri-
ous injury. When replacing the
tyres, be sure to equip all fourtyres with the tyre and wheel of
the same size, type, tread, brand
and load-carrying capacity.

Tread wear indicator(Continued)
The use of any other tyre size ortype may seriously affect ride,
handling, ground clearance, stop-
ping distance, body to tyre clear-
ance, snow tyre clearance, and
speedometer reliability.
It is best to replace all four tyres at the same time. If that is not
possible, or necessary, then
replace the two front or two rear
tyres as a pair. Replacing just one
tyre can seriously affect your
vehicle’s handling.
The ABS works by comparing the speed of the wheels. Tyre size
can affect wheel speed. When
replacing tyres, all 4 tyres must
use the same size originally sup-
plied with the vehicle. Using tyres
of a different size can cause the
ABS (Anti-lock Brake System)
and ESP (Electronic Stability
Program) (if equipped) to work
irregularly.

Maintenance
FUSES
A vehicle’s electrical system is protected
from electrical overload damage by
fuses. This vehicle has 2 (or 3) fuse panels, one
located in the driver’s side panel bolster,
the other in the engine compartment
near the battery.
If any of your vehicle’s lights, acces-
sories, or controls do not work, check the
appropriate circuit fuse. If a fuse has
blown, the element inside the fuse will bemelted.
If the electrical system does not work,
first check the driver’s side fuse panel.
Always replace a blown fuse with one of
the same rating.
If the replacement fuse blows, this indi-
cates an electrical problem. Avoid using
the system involved and immediately
consult an authorised Hyundai dealer.
Three kinds of fuses are used: blade type
for lower amperage rating and cartridge
type, fusible link for higher amperage rat-ings.

WARNING - Fuse replace-
ment
Never replace a fuse with any- thing but another fuse of the same rating.
A higher capacity fuse could cause damage and possibly a
fire.
Never install a wire instead of the proper fuse - even as a temporary
repair. It may cause extensive
wiring damage and possibly a fire.
CAUTION
Do not use a screwdriver or any
other metal object to remove fuses because it may cause a short circuit
and damage the system.
