DRIVING YOUR HYUNDAI
2- 14 YC200E2-E 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, andturn signals.
2. Always drive your vehicle at a moderate speed (Less than 62 MPH)
3. Trailer towing requires more fuel than nor- mal conditions.
4. To maintain engine braking efficiency and electrical charging performance, do not usefifth gear (manual transaxle) or overdrive(automatic transaxle). Towing Bracket Attachment Location
NOTE:
o The total gross vehicle weight with trailer must not exceed the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) shown on thevehicle identification plate (see page 8-1). The total gross vehicle weight is thecombined weight of the vehicle, driver,all passengers and their luggage, cargo,hitch, trailer tongue load and other op-tional equipment.
o The front or rear axle weight must not exceed the Gross Axle Weight Rating(GAWR) shown on the vehicle identifi-cation plate (see page 8-1). it is possiblethat your towing package does not ex-ceed the GVWR but exceeds the GAWR.Improper trailer loading and/or too muchluggage in the trunk can overload therear axle. Redistribute the load andcheck the axle weight again. MANUAL

IF THE ENGINE WILL NOT START Seek assistance from the nearest Hyundai dealer with regard to the method of ignition andfuel system diagnosis.
CAUTION:If the engine refuses to start, no attempt
should be made to push or tow start thevehicle. Vehicles with automatic transaxleor fuel injection will not be able to bestarted in this manner since no drive istransmitted through the automatic transaxlewhilst the engine is not running, and in thecase of fuel injected derivatives, the fuelpump will not operate under tow start con-ditions. In addition, if the vehicle isequipped with an exhaust catalyst, dam-age to the catalyst may result if the vehicleis tow started. SD020B1-E

CAUTION:
Personal injury and damage to the vehicle
may occur if jump starting is not per- formed correctly. If any doubt exists as tohow this operation should be performed,seek assistance from qualified personnel. WARNING:
Motor vehicle batteries contain sulphuric
acid and emit hydrogen gas. Protective clothing should be worn and care exer-cised to prevent the acid from coming intocontact with skin or clothing and the ve-hicle. Naked lights should not be permittedin the vicinity of the battery. Care shouldbe exercised to prevent sparks occurringduring connection. If acid accidentallycomes into contact with skin or eyes, theaffected area should immediately be flushed ponents such as the Fuel Injection system
computer and the Automatic Transaxlecomputer. The battery must never be dis-connected whilst the engine is running. SD040A2-E IF THE ENGINE OVERHEATS If the temperature gauge indicates overheat- ing:
1. Pull off the road and stop as soon as it is
safe to do so.
2. Place the gear selector lever in "P" (auto- matic), or neutral (manual transaxle) and set the parking brake. If the air condition-ing is on, turn it off.
3. If coolant is running out under the car or steam is coming out from under the bonnetstop the engine. Do not open the bonnetuntil the coolant has stopped running orthe steaming has stopped. If there is novisible loss of coolant and no steam, leavethe engine running and check to be surethe engine cooling fan is operating. If the fan is not running, turn the engine off.
4. Check to see if the water pump drive belt is missing. If it is not missing, check to see that it is tight. If the drive belt seems to besatisfactory, check for coolant leaking fromthe radiator, hoses or under the car. (If theair conditioning had been in use, it isnormal for cold water to be draining fromit).

with copious amounts of water and medi- cal assistance sought.
1. Ensure that the booster battery is 12 volt type. If the booster battery is installed inanother vehicle, ensure that the two vehi-cles are not touching.
2. Turn off all unnecessary electrical equip- ment in both vehicles.
3. Ensure that the engine of the vehicle pro- viding the jump start is running prior toconnection of the jump cables.
4. Connect the red jump cable to the positive (+) terminal of the booster battery and theother end to the positive (+) terminal of thedischarged battery.
5. Attach the black jump cable to the nega- tive (-) terminal of the booster battery, andthe other end to a ground point within theengine compartment of the vehicle withthe flat battery. Do not connect to thenegative battery terminal of the flat batterysince sparks may be generated with thesubsequent risk of explosion.
6. Raise the booster vehicle engine speed to 2,000 r.p.m. and start the engine of thevehicle with the flat battery.
7. Remove jump cables in the reverse order of installation (black cable first).

IN CASE OF EMERGENCY
WARNING: While the engine is running, keep hands
and clothing away from moving parts such as the fan and drive belts to preventinjury.
WARNING (Diesel only): Never work on injection system with en-
gine running or within 30 seconds after shutting off engine. High pressure pump,rail, injectors and high pressure pipes aresubject to high pressure even after theengine stopped. The fuel jet produced byfuel leaks may cause serious injury, if ittouch the body. People using pacemak-ers should not move than 30cm closer tothe ECU or wiring harness within theengine room while engine is running,since the high currents in the CommonRail system produce considerable mag-netic fields.
5. If the water pump drive belt is broken or coolant is leaking out, stop the engine immediately and call the nearest Hyundaidealer for assistance.
WARNING: Do not remove the radiator cap when the
engine is hot since steam and boiling wa- ter may be ejected from the radiator result-ing in burns or scalding. D040A01FC-EAT TEMPORARY SPARE TYREThe following instructions for the temporary spare tyre should be observed:
1. Check inflation pressure as soon as pos-
sible after installing the spare tyre, and adjust to the specified pressure. The tyrepressure should be periodically checkedand maintained at the specified pressurewhile the tyre is stored. 2. The spare tyre should only be used tem-
porarily and should be returned to theluggage compartment as soon as the origi-nal tyre can be repaired or replaced.
3. Continuous use at speeds of over 80 km/h (50 mph) is not recommended.
4. As the temporary spare tyre is specifically designed for your car, it should not beused on any other vehicle.
5. The temporary spare tyre should not be used on any other wheels, nor shouldstandard tyre, snow tyre, wheel covers ortrim rings be used with the temporaryspare wheel. If such use is attempted,damage to these items or other car com-ponents may occur.
6. The temporary spare tyre pressure should be checked once a month while the tyre isstored.
CAUTION:
o Do not use snow chains with your tem- porary spare tyre.
o Do not use more than one temporary spare tyre at a time.
Spare Tyre Pressure
Type Size Inflation Pressure T115/70R(D)15420 kPa (60 psi)6. If the cause of the overheating cannot be
found, wait until the engine temperature has returned to normal. Then, if coolanthas been lost, carefully remove the radia-tor cap and add water to bring the fluid levelin the reservoir up to the base of theradiator fill opening. Fill the coolant expan-sion tank to the halfway mark.
7. Proceed with caution until it is established that the engine is operating normally. If theengine overheats repeatedly, the advice ofa Hyundai dealer should be sought.
CAUTION: Serious loss of coolant indicates there is a leak in the cooling system and thisshould be checked as soon as possibleby a Hyundai dealer.

Specified Scheduled Procedures The Specified scheduled procedures are listed
in the maintenance charts beginning at page 5-2. The operations specified must be per-formed at the time or mileage intervals shownirrespective of whether the mileage intervalhas been reached before the specified timeinterval.
Certain lubricants and components degrade
with both time and mileage (e.g. engine oil andbrake fluid) and therefore it is not permissableto base the maintenance schedule upon mile-age alone. It is strongly recommended thatthe maintenance operations are performed bythe factory-trained or distributor-trained tech-nicians at your Hyundai dealer because of the need for specialized knowledge and toolingand to ensure that no possibility of invalidatingthe manufacturers warranty exists.
The maintenance schedules relate to ve-
hicles operated under normal conditions, ve-hicles which are operated under adverseconditions will require more frequent mainte-nance which is described at page 5-5.
SF030B1-E
SERVICE HISTORY It is important that all scheduled maintenance
services are recorded in the warranty andservice passport to ensure that proof of main-tenance is available when warranty service isrequired.
