Trailer towing equipment
Towbars
OBC3060011
It's important to have the correct
towbar equipment. Crosswinds, large
trucks going by, and rough roads are a
few reasons why you’ll need the right
towbar. Here are some rules to follow:
[ Do you have to make any holes in the
body of your vehicle when you install
a trailer towbar? If you do, then be
sure to seal the holes later when you
remove the towbar. If you don’t seal
them, carbon monoxide (CO) from
your exhaust can get into your vehicle,
as well as dirt and water.
[ The bumpers on your vehicle are not
intended for towbars. Do not attach
rental towbars or other bumper-type
towbars to them. Use only a frame-
mounted towbar that does not attach
to the bumper.
[ A HYUNDAI trailer towbar accessory
is available at a HYUNDAI authorised
repairer.
Safety chains
You should always attach chains
between your vehicle and your trailer.
Cross the safety chains under the
tongue of the trailer so that the tongue
will not drop to the road if it becomes
separated from the towbar. Instructions
about safety chains may be provided
by the towbar manufacturer or trailer
manufacturer. Follow the manufacturer’s
recommendation for attaching safety
chains. Always leave just enough slack
so you can turn with your trailer. And,
never allow safety chains to drag on the
ground.
Trailer brakes
If your trailer is equipped with a
braking system, make sure it conforms
your country’s regulations and that
it is properly installed and operating
correctly.
If your trailer weighs more than the
maximum trailer weight without trailer
brakes loaded, then it needs its own
brakes and they must be adequate. Be
sure to read and follow the instructions
for the trailer brakes so you’ll be able
to install, adjust and maintain them
properly. Be sure not to tap into your
vehicle's brake system.
WARNING
Do not use a trailer with its own brakes
unless you are absolutely certain that
you have properly set up the brake
system. This is not a task for amateurs.
Use an experienced, competent trailer
shop for this work.

Driving on hills
Reduce speed and shift to a lower gear
before you start down a long or steep
downgrade. If you don’t shift down, you
might have to use your brakes so much
that they would get overheated and may
not operate efficiently.
On a long uphill grade, shift down and
reduce your speed to around 45 mph (70
km/h) to reduce the possibility of engine
and transmission overheating.
If your trailer weighs more than the
maximum trailer weight without trailer
brakes and you have an automatic
transmission/dual clutch transmission,
you should drive in D (Drive) when
towing a trailer. Operating your vehicle
in D (Drive) when towing a trailer will
minimise heat build-up and extend the
life of your transmission.
NOTICE
To prevent engine and/or transmission
overheating:
V When towing a trailer on steep
grades (in excess of 6%) pay close
attention to the engine coolant
temperature gauge to ensure the
engine does not overheat. If the
needle of the coolant temperature
gauge moves towards “H” (HOT),
pull over and stop as soon as it is
safe to do so, and allow the engine
to idle until it cools down. You may
proceed once the engine has cooled
sufficiently.
V You must decide your vehicle speed
according to the trailer weight and
uphill grade.
Parking on hills
Generally, if you have a trailer attached
to your vehicle, you should not park your
vehicle on a hill.
However, if you ever have to park your
trailer on a hill, here's how to do it:
1. Pull the vehicle into the parking space.
Turn the steering wheel in the
direction of the kerb (left if headed
down hill, right if headed up hill).
2. Shift the vehicle to P (Park, for
Automatic transmission/Dual clutch
transmission vehicle) or neutral (for
Manual transmission vehicle).
3. Set the parking brake and shut off the
vehicle.
4. Place wheel chocks under the trailer
wheels on the down hill side of the
wheels.
5. Start the vehicle, hold the brakes, shift
to neutral, release the parking brake
and slowly release the brakes until the
trailer chocks absorb the load.
6. Reapply the brakes and parking
brakes.
7. Move the shift lever to P (Park, for
Automatic transmission/Dual clutch
transmission vehicle) or the 1st gear
when the vehicle is parked on a uphill
grade and in R (Reverse) on a downhill
(for Manual transmission vehicle).
8. Shut off the vehicle and release the
vehicle brakes but leave the parking
brake set.
WARNING
To prevent serious or fatal injury:
Do not get out of the vehicle without
the parking brake firmly set. If you have
left the engine running, the vehicle can
move suddenly. You and others could
be seriously or fatally injured.

Basic function
OTM070237
Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist is
designed to help detect and monitor
the vehicle ahead or help detect a
pedestrian or cyclist in the roadway
and warn the driver that a collision is
imminent with a warning message and
an audible warning, and if necessary,
apply emergency braking.
Detecting sensor
OBC3070001[1] : Front view camera
Refer to the picture above for the
detailed location of the detecting sensor.
CAUTION
Take the following precautions to
maintain optimal performance of the
detecting sensor:
[ NEVER disassemble the detecting
sensor or sensor assembly, or apply
any impact on it.
[ If the detecting sensor have been
replaced or repaired, we recommend
that you have your vehicle inspected
by a HYUNDAI authorised repairer.
[ NEVER install any accessories or
stickers on the front windscreen, or
tint the front windscreen.
[ Pay extreme caution to keep the
front view camera dry.
[ NEVER place any reflective objects
(i.e. white paper, mirror) over the
dashboard. Any light reflection
may prevent the function from
functioning properly.
