Parking on hills
Generally, if you have a trailer attached to
your vehicle, you should not park your
vehicle on a hill. People can be seriously
or fatally injured, and both your vehicle
and the trailer can be damaged if unex-
pectedly roll down 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 (right if headed down hill,left if headed up hill).
2. If the vehicle has a manual transaxle, place the car in neutral. If the vehicle
has an automatic transaxle, place the
car in P (Park).
3. Set the parking brake and shut off the vehicle.
4. Place 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, reapply the park- ing brake and shift the vehicle to R
(Reverse) for manual transaxle or P
(Park) for automatic transaxle.
7. Shut off the vehicle and release the vehicle brakes but leave the parking
brake set.
CAUTION
When towing a trailer on steep
grades (in excess of 6%) pay
close attention to the enginecoolant temperature gauge toensure the engine does not over- heat.
If the needle of the coolant tem-perature gauge moves across thedial towards “H” (HOT), pull overand stop as soon as it is safe to
do so, and allow the engine to idleuntil it cools down. You may pro-ceed once the engine has cooledsufficiently.
You must decide driving speed depending on trailer weight anduphill grade to reduce the possi-bility of engine and transaxle overheating.
WARNING - Parking on a
hill
Parking your vehicle on a hill with a
trailer attached could cause seri-
ous injury or death, should the trail-
er break loose.
WARNING - Parking brake
It can be dangerous to get out of
your vehicle if the parking brake is
not firmly set.
If you have left the engine running,
the vehicle can move suddenly. You
or others could be seriously or
fatally injured.

When you are ready to leave after park-
ing on a hill
1. With the manual transaxle in Neutral
or automatic transaxle in P (Park),
apply your brakes and hold the brake
pedal down whilst you:
and
2. Slowly remove your foot from the brake pedal.
3. Drive slowly until the trailer is clear of the chocks.
4. Stop and have someone pick up and store the chocks. E140500AUN
Maintenance when trailer towing
Your vehicle will need service more often
when you regularly pull a trailer.
Important items to pay particular atten-tion to include engine oil, automatic
transaxle fluid, axle lubricant and cooling
system fluid. Brake condition is another
important item to frequently check. Each
item is covered in this manual, and the
Index will help you find them quickly. If
you’re trailering, it’s a good idea to review
these sections before you start your trip.
Don’t forget to also maintain your trailer
and towbar. Follow the maintenance
schedule that accompanied your trailer
and check it periodically. Preferably, con-
duct the check at the start of each day’s
driving. Most importantly, all towbar nutsand bolts should be tight.CAUTION
Due to higher load during trailer
usage, overheating might occur
in hot days or during uphill driv- ing. If the coolant gauge indicatesover-heating, switch off the A/Cand stop the vehicle in a safe area
to cool down the engine.
When towing check transaxle fluid more frequently.
If your vehicle is not equipped with the air conditioner, you
should install a condenser fan toimprove engine performancewhen towing a trailer.

TYRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM (TPMS) (IF EQUIPPED)
(1) Low tyre pressure telltale / TPMS malfunction indicator
(2) Low tyre pressure position tell- tale
Each tyre, including the spare (if pro-
vided), should be checked monthlywhen cold and inflated to the inflation
pressure recommended by the vehi-
cle manufacturer on the vehicle plac-
ard or tyre inflation pressure label. (If
your vehicle has tyres of a different
size than the size indicated on the
vehicle placard or tyre inflation pres-
sure label, you should determine the
proper tyre inflation pressure for
those tyres.) As an added safety feature, your
vehicle has been equipped with a
tyre pressure monitoring system
(TPMS) that illuminates a low tyrepressure telltale when one or more
of your tyres is significantly under-
inflated. Accordingly, when the low
tyre pressure telltale illuminates, you
should stop and check your tyres as
soon as possible, and inflate them to
the proper pressure. Driving on a sig-nificantly under-inflated tyre causes
the tyre to overheat and can lead to
tyre failure. Under-inflation alsoreduces fuel efficiency and tyre tread
life, and may affect the vehicle’s han-
dling and stopping ability.
Please note that the TPMS is not a
substitute for proper tyre mainte-
nance, and it is the driver’s responsi-bility to maintain correct tyre pres-
sure, even if under-inflation has not
reached the level to trigger illumina-
tion of the TPMS low tyre pressure
telltale.
Your vehicle has also been equipped
with a TPMS malfunction indicator toindicate when the system is not
operating properly. The TPMS mal-function indicator is combined with
the low tyre pressure telltale. Whenthe system detects a malfunction,
the telltale will flash for approximate-
ly one minute and then remain con-
tinuously illuminated. This sequence
will continue upon subsequent vehi-
cle start-ups as long as the malfunc-
tion exists. When the malfunctionindicator is illuminated, the system
may not be able to detect or signal
low tyre pressure as intended. TPMS
malfunctions may occur for a variety
of reasons, including the installation
of replacement or alternate tyres or
wheels on the vehicle that prevent
the TPMS from functioning properly.
Always check the TPMS malfunctiontelltale after replacing one or more
tyres or wheels on your vehicle toensure that the replacement or alter-
nate tyres and wheels allow the
TPMS to continue to function proper-
ly.

What to do in an emergency
✽✽NOTICE
If the TPMS, Low Tyre Pressure and
Position indicators do not illuminate
for 3 seconds when the ignition
switch is turned to the ON position
or engine is running, or if they
remain illuminated after coming on
for approximately 3 seconds, take
your car to your nearest HYUNDAI
authorised repairer and have the
system checked.Low tyre pressure tell- tale
Low tyre pressure posi- tion telltale
When the tyre pressure monitoring
system warning indicators are illumi-
nated, one or more of your tyres is
significantly under-inflated. The lowtyre pressure position telltale lightwill indicate which tyre is significant-
ly under-inflated by illuminating thecorresponding position light.
If either telltale illuminates, immedi-
ately reduce your speed, avoid hard
cornering and anticipate increased
stopping distances. You should stop
and check your tyres as soon as pos-
sible. Inflate the tyres to the proper
pressure as indicated on the vehi-
cle’s placard or tyre inflation pres-
sure label located on the driver’s side
centre pillar outer panel. If you can-
not reach a service station or if the
tyre cannot hold the newly added air,
replace the low pressure tyre with
the spare tyre. Then the TPMS malfunction indicator
may turn on and the Low Tyre
Pressure and Position telltales will
remain on after restarting and about
20 minutes of continuous driving
before you have the low pressuretyre repaired and replaced on the
vehicle.
CAUTION
In winter or cold weather, the
low tyre pressure telltale may beilluminated if the tyre pressurewas adjusted to the recom- mended tyre inflation pressurein warm weather. It does notmean your TPMS is malfunction- ing because the decreased tem-perature leads to a proportionallowering of tyre pressure.
When you drive your vehiclefrom a warm area to a cold area or from a cold area to a warmarea, or the outside temperatureis greatly higher or lower, you should check the tyre inflationpressure and adjust the tyres tothe recommended tyre inflation pressure.
