Maintenance when towing a
trailer
Your vehicle will need service more
often when you regularly pull a trail-
er. Important items to pay particular
attention to include engine oil, auto-
matic transmission fluid, axle lubri-
cant and cooling system fluid. Brake
condition is another important item to
frequently check. If you’re trailering,
it’s a good idea to review these items
before you start your trip. Don’t forget
to also maintain your trailer and
hitch. Follow the maintenance sched-
ule that accompanied your trailer and
check it periodically. Preferably, con-
duct the check at the start of each
day’s driving. Most importantly, all
hitch nuts and bolts should be tight.To prevent vehicle damage:
Due to higher load during trailer
usage, overheating might occur
on hot days or during uphill driv-
ing. If the coolant gauge indi-
cates over-heating, switch off
the air conditioner and stop the
vehicle in a safe area to cool
down the engine.
Do not switch off the engine while the coolant gauge indi-
cates over-heating.
(Keep the engine idle to cool
down the engine)
When towing check automatic transmission fluid more fre-
quently.
If your vehicle is not equipped with an air conditioner, you
should install a condenser fan
to improve engine performance
when towing a trailer.
NOTICE

What to do in an emergency
Use a towing cable or chain less than 5 m (16 feet) long. Attach a
white or red cloth (about 30 cm (12
inches) wide) in the middle of the
cable or chain for easy visibility.
Drive carefully so the towing cable or chain remains tight during towing.
Before towing, check the automatic transmission/dual clutch transmis-
sion for fluid leaks under your vehi-
cle. If the automatic transmission
fluid is leaking, flatbed equipment
or a towing dolly must be used. To avoid damage to your vehicle
and vehicle components when
towing:
Always pull straight ahead
when using the towing hooks.
Do not pull from the side or at
a vertical angle.
Do not use the towing hooks
to pull a vehicle out of mud,
sand or other conditions from
which the vehicle cannot be
driven out under its own
power.
Limit the vehicle speed to
15 km/h (10 mph) and drive
less than 1.5 km (1 mile) when
towing to avoid serious dam-
age to the automatic transmis-
sion.

Maintenance
Owner maintenance schedule
When you stop for fuel:
Check the engine oil level.
Check coolant level in the enginecoolant reservoir.
Check the windshield washer fluid level.
Check for low or under-inflated tires.
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 if there is any
increased steering effort or loose-
ness in the steering wheel, or
change in its straight-ahead position.
Notice if your vehicle constantly turns slightly or “pulls” to one side when
traveling 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 operation of your transaxle occurs,
check the transaxle fluid level.
Check the automatic transmission/ dual clutch transmission P (Park)
function.
Check the parking brake.
Check for fluid leaks under your vehicle (water dripping from the air
conditioning system during or after
use is normal).
Be careful when checking your
engine coolant level when the
engine is hot. This may result in
coolant being blown out of the
opening and cause serious
burns and other injuries.
WARNING
Diesel Engine
Never manipulate or modify the
injection system while running
the diesel engine or within 30
seconds after turning OFF the
diesel engine. The high-pressure
pump, high-pressure pipes, rail,
and injectors are still subject to
the high pressure right after
stopping the diesel engine.
When the fuel leakage vents out,
it may cause serious body injury.
Any people, who are implement-
ed with the artificial cardiac
pacemaker, should remain away
from the ECU or the wiring har-
ness by at least 30 cm, while run-
ning the diesel engine. The high
currents of the electric engine
control system produce a con-
siderable amount of magnetic
fields.

Maintenance
Air cleaner filter
We recommend that the air cleaner
filter be replaced by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
Spark plugs
(for Gasoline Engine)
Make sure to install new spark plugs
of the correct heat range.
Valve clearance
(for Gasoline Engine)
Inspect excessive valve noise and/or
engine vibration and adjust if neces-
sary. We recommend that the system
be serviced by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer.
Cooling system
Check the cooling system parts,
such as radiator, coolant reservoir,
hoses and connections for leakage
and damage. Replace any damaged
parts.
Engine coolant
The coolant should be changed at
the intervals specified in the mainte-
nance schedule.
Automatic transmission fluid
(if equipped)
Automatic transmission fluid should
not be checked under normal usage
conditions.
We recommend that the automatic
transmission fluid changed by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer accord-
ing to the maintenance schedule.
Information
Automatic transmission fluid color is
basically red.
As the vehicle is driven, the automatic
transmission fluid will begin to look
darker.
It is normal condition and you should
not judge the need to replace the fluid
based upon the changed color.
The use of a non-specified fluid
could result in transmission mal-
function and failure.
Use only specified automatic
transmission fluid.
(Refer to “Recommended lubri-
cants and capacities” in chapter 8.)
Manual transmission fluid
(if equipped)
Inspect the manual transmission
fluid according to the maintenance
schedule.
NOTICE
i
Do not disconnect and inspect
spark plugs when the engine is
hot. You may burn yourself.
