3BREAKING IN YOUR NEW HYUNDAI
B010F01A-AAT Operation in Foreign Countries If you are going to drive your Hyundai in another country, be sure to:
o Observe all regulations regarding registration and insurance.
o Determine that acceptable fuel is available. B020B01HR-GAT During the First 1,000 Km (600 Miles) No formal "break-in" procedure is re- quired with your new Hyundai. How-ever, you can contribute to the eco- nomical operation and durability of your Hyundai by observing the followingrecommendations during the first 1,000 km (600 miles).
o While driving, keep your engine
speed (rpm, or revolutions per minute) between 2,000 rpm and 4,000rpm.
o While driving, keep under three quar-
ters of maximum speed.
o Use moderate acceleration. Don't start, depress the accelerator pedalfully.
o For the first 300 km (200 miles), try to avoid hard stops.
o Don't lug the engine (in other words, don't drive so slowly in too-high a gear that the engine "bucks": shift to a lower gear).
CAUTION:
o Never use any fuel, whether diesel or B5 biodiesel that fails to meetthe latest petroleum industry speci- fication.
o Never use any fuel additives or
treatments that are not recom-mended or approved by the ve- hicle manufacturer.
! o Whether going fast or slow, vary your
speed from time to time.
o Don't let the engine idle longer than 3 minutes at one time.
o Don't tow a trailer during the first
1,000 km (600 miles) of operation.
o Do not exceed loading limits. B030A01P-GAT Before Operation Precautions for New Vehicle The performance and life of a vehicle depend largely on how the vehicle is handled when new.To maintain the parts smoothly and sustain high performance for a long time to come, be sure to observe thefollowing points. Make sure that your vehicle does not miss the first 5,000 km inspections. After the first 5,000 km of driving, take your vehicle to your nearest service shop for inspection.
Repair or replacement of worn or dam- aged components due to the use of non approved fuels will not be covered by the manufactures warranty.

15USE OF LIGHTSHIGHER SPEED MOTORING
C180A01A-AAT Check your lights regularly for correct operation and always keep them clean. When driving during the day in condi- tions of poor visibility, it is helpful todrive with headlights on low beam. This enables you to be seen as well as to see.
C170A01A-AAT Pre-Trip Inspections 1. Tires: Adjust the tire inflation pressures to specification. Low tire inflation pres-sures will result in overheating and possible failure of the tires. Avoid using worn or damaged tireswhich may result in reduced traction or tire failure. NOTE: Never exceed the maximum tire in- flation pressure shown on the tires.
2. Fuel, engine coolant and
engine oil:
High speed travel consumes more fuel than urban motoring. Do not forget tocheck both engine coolant and engine oil. 3. Drive belt: A loose or damaged drive belt may result in overheating of the engine.TRAILER OR VEHICLE TOWING
C190A01HR-GAT If you are considering towing with your car, you should first check with your Province Department of Motor Vehicles to determine their legal requirements.Since laws vary from province to prov- ince, the requirements for towing trail- ers, cars, other types of vehicles, orapparatus may differ. Ask your Hyundai dealer for further details before towing.
! CAUTION
Do not do any towing with your car during its first 1,000 km (600 miles)in order to allow the engine to prop- erly break in. Failure to heed this caution may result in serious en-gine or transmission damage.

C190D01A-GAT Safety Chains Should the hitch connection between your car and the trailer or vehicle you are towing fail, the trailer or vehicle could wander dangerously across otherlanes of traffic and ultimately collide with another vehicle. To eliminate this potentially dangerous situation, safetychains, attached between your car and the trailer or towed vehicle, are re- quired in most provinces.and allow the engine to idle until it cools down. You may proceed once the engine has cooled suffi-ciently.
C190C03S-GAT Trailer Brakes If your trailer is equipped with a braking system, make sure it conforms to fed-eral and/or local regulations and that it is properly installed and operating cor- rectly. NOTE: If you tow a trailer or vehicle, your car will require more frequent main-tenance due to the additional load. See "Maintenance Under Severe Usage Conditions" on page 5-8.
CAUTION:
o Never connect a trailer brake sys- tem directly to the vehicle brakesystem.
o When towing a trailer on steep
grades (in excess of 6%) pay closeattention to the engine coolant temperature gauge to ensure the engine does not overheat. If theneedle of the coolant temperature gauge moves across the dial to- wards "H" (HOT), pull over andstop as soon as it is safe to do so,
!
C190B01S-AAT Trailer Hitches Select the proper hitch and ball combi- nation, making sure that it's location iscompatible with that of the trailer or vehicle being towed. Use a quality non-equalizing hitch whichdistributes the tongue load uniformly throughout the chassis. The hitch should be bolted securely to the car and installed by a qualified technician. DO NOT USE A HITCHDESIGNED FOR TEMPORARY IN- STALLATION AND NEVER USE ONE THAT ATTACHES ONLY TO THEBUMPER.

C190E01HR-GAT Trailer Weight Limit
Tongue load Total trailer weight
Tongue loads can be increased or de- creased by redistributing the load in the trailer. This can be verified by checking the total weight of the loaded trailer andthen checking the load on the tongue. NOTE:
1. Never load the trailer with more weight in the back than in the front. About 60% of the trailer load should be in the front halfon the trailer and the remaining 40% in the rear. 2. The total gross vehicle weight with
trailer must not exceed the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR)shown on the vehicle identifica- tion plate (see page 8-2). The total gross vehicle weight is the com-bined weight of the vehicle, driver, all passengers and their luggage, cargo, hitch, trailer tongue loadand other optional equipment.
3. The front or rear axle weight must
not exceed the Gross Axle WeightRating (GAWR) shown on the vehicle identification plate (see page 8-2). It is possible that yourtowing package does not exceed the GVWR but exceeds the GAWR. Improper trailer loading C190E02L

and/or too much luggage in the cargo deck can overload the rearaxle. Redistribute the load and check the axle weight again.
CAUTION:
The following specifications are rec- ommended when towing a trailer. The loaded trailer weight cannot safely exceed the values in the chartbelow.

8. When parking your car and trailer,especially on a hill, be sure to fol- low all the normal precautions. Turn your front wheel into the curb, set the parking brake firmly, and putthe transmission in 1st or Reverse. In addition, place wheel chocks at each of the trailer's tires.
9. If the trailer has electric brakes, start your vehicle and trailer mov-ing, and then apply the trailer brakecontroller by hand to be sure the brakes are working. This lets you check your electrical connection atthe same time.
10. During your trip, check occasion-
ally to be sure that the load issecure, and that the lights and any trailer brakes are still working.
11. Avoid jerky starts, sudden accel- eration or sudden stops.
12. Avoid sharp turns and rapid lane
changes.
13. Avoid holding the brake pedal down too long or too frequently. This could cause the brakes to over-heat, resulting in reduced braking efficiency.
!WARNING:
Improperly loading your car and trailer can seriously affect its steer- ing and braking performance caus- ing a crash which could cause seri-ous injury or death. C190F01HR-GAT Trailer or Vehicle Towing Tips
1. 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 mod- erate speed (Less than 100 km/h).
3. Trailer towing requires more fuel than normal conditions.
4. To maintain engine braking effi-
ciency, do not tow a trailer withtransmission in fifth gear.
5. Always secure items in the trailer
to prevent load shift while driving.
6. Check the condition and air pres- sure of all tires on the trailer andyour car. Low tire pressure canseriously affect the handling. Also check the spare tire.
7. The vehicle/trailer combination is more affected by crosswind andbuffeting. When being passed by a largevehicle, keep a constant speed and steer straight ahead. If there is too much wind buffeting, slow downto get out of the other vehicle's air turbulence.
