If you do decide to pull a trail- er
Here are some important points if
you decide to pull a trailer:
Consider using a sway control. Youcan ask a hitch dealer about sway control.
Do not do any towing with your vehicle during its first 2,000 km
(1,200 miles) in order to allow the
engine to properly break in. Failure
to heed this caution may result in
serious engine or transmission
damage.
When towing a trailer, we recom- mend that you consult an author-
ized HYUNDAI dealer on addition-
al requirements such as a towingkit, etc.
Always drive your vehicle at a mod- erate speed (Max speed for stan-
dard trailer is 80 km/h (50 mph)). ❇ Special trailer 100 km/h (60
mph) is allowed but trailer need
special approval from TÜV. On a long uphill grade, do not
exceed 70 km/h (45 mph) or the
posted towing speed limit,
whichever is lower.
Fuel consumption will increase due to the additional required power to
tow trailer and additional trans-
portation weight at the trailer.
To prevent vehicle damage :
Due to higher load during
trailer usage, overheating
might occur in hot days or
during uphill driving. If the
coolant gauge indicates over-
heating, switch off the A/C
and stop the vehicle in a safe
area to cool down the engine.
When towing check transmis-
sion fluid more frequently.
If your vehicle is not equipped
with the air conditioner, youshould install a condenser fan
to improve engine perform-
ance when towing a trailer.

Driving your vehicle
This section will guide you in the
proper loading of your vehicle and/or
trailer, to keep your loaded vehicle
weight within its design rating capa-
bility, with or without a trailer.
Properly loading your vehicle will
provide maximum return of the vehi-
cle design performance. Before load-
ing your vehicle, familiarize yourself
with the following terms for determin-
ing your vehicle's weight ratings, with
or without a trailer, from the vehicle's
specifications and the certificationlabel:
Base curb weight
This is the weight of the vehicle including a full tank of fuel and all
standard equipment. It does not
include passengers, cargo, or option-al equipment.
Vehicle curb weight
This is the weight of your new vehicle
when you picked it up from your deal-
er plus any aftermarket equipment.
Cargo weight
This figure includes all weight added
to the Base Curb Weight, includingcargo and optional equipment.
GAW (Gross axle weight)
This is the total weight placed on each axle (front and rear) - including
vehicle curb weight and all payload.
GAWR (Gross axle weight rat- ing)
This is the maximum allowable
weight that can be carried by a single
axle (front or rear). These numbers
are shown on the certification label.
The total load on each axle must
never exceed its GAWR.
GVW (Gross vehicle weight)
This is the Base Curb Weight plus
actual Cargo Weight plus passen-
gers.
Take the following precautions:
Never load a trailer with more weight in the rear than in the
front. The front should be
loaded with approximately60% of the total trailer load;the rear should be loaded with
approximately 40% of the totaltrailer load.
Never exceed the maximum weight limits of the trailer or
trailer towing equipment.
Improper loading can result in
damage to your vehicle and/or
personal injury. Checkweights and loading at a com-
mercial scale or highway
patrol office equipped withscales.
An improperly loaded trailer
can cause loss of vehicle con-
trol.

Changing tires
Never attempt vehicle repairs
in the traffic lanes of a public
road or highway.
Always move the vehicle com-
pletely off the road and onto
the shoulder before trying to
change a tire. The jack should
be used on firm level ground.
If you cannot find a firm level
place off the road, call a tow-

Be sure to use the correct
front and rear jacking posi-
tions on the vehicle; never
use the bumpers or any other
part of the vehicle for jacking
support.
The vehicle can easily roll off
the jack causing serious
injury or death.
Do not get under a vehicle
that is supported by a jack.
Do not start or run the engine
while the vehicle is on the
jack.
Do not allow anyone to remain
in the vehicle while it is on the
jack.
Make sure any children pres-
ent are in a secure place away
