DRIVING YOUR HYUNDAI
2- 16 C190D01A-GAT Safety Chains Should the hitch connection between your car and the trailer or vehicle you are towing fail, the trailer or vehicle could wander dangerously across other lanes of traffic and ultimately collide with another vehicle. To eliminate this potentially dan- gerous situation, safety chains, attached be- tween your car and the trailer or towed vehicle, are required in most provinces. C190E02HP-GAT Trailer Weight Limit
Tongue load Total trailer weightSSA2200B
Tongue loads can be increased or decreased by re-distributing the load in the trailer. This can be verified by checking the total weight of the loaded trailer and then checking the load on the tongue.
C190A01HP-GAT TRAILER OR VEHICLE TOWING If you are considering towing with your car, you should first check with your Province Depart- ment of Motor Vehicles to determine their legal requirements. Since laws vary from province to province the requirements for towing trailers, cars, or other types of vehicles or apparatus may differ. Ask your Hyundai dealer for further details before towing. CAUTION: Do not do any towing with your car 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 en- gine or transmission damage. C190B01S-AAT Trailer HitchesSelect the proper hitch and ball combination, making sure that it’s location is compatible with that of the trailer or vehicle being towed. Use a quality non-equalizing hitch which distrib- utes the tongue load uniformly throughout the chassis. The hitch should be bolted securely to the car and installed by a qualified technician. DO NOT USE A HITCH DESIGNED FOR TEMPORARY INSTALLATION AND NEVER USE ONE THAT ATTACHES ONLY TO THE BUMPER. C190C02Y-GAT Trailer Brakes If your trailer is equipped with a braking system, make sure it conforms to federal and/or local regulations and that it is properly installed and operating correctly. NOTE: If you tow a trailer or vehicle, your car will require more frequent maintenance due to the additional load. See "Maintenance Under Severe Usage Conditions" on page 5-6. CAUTION:
o Never connect a trailer brake system di-
rectly to the vehicle brake system.
o When towing a trailer on steep grades (in excess of 12%) pay close attention to theengine coolant temperature gauge to en- sure the engine does not overheat. If the needle of the coolant temperature gauge moves across the dial 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.

VEHICLE MAINTENANCE REQUIREMENTS 5-1
F010C01HP-GAT Specified Scheduled ProceduresThese are the procedures such as inspections, adjustments and replacements that are listed in the maintenance charts starting on page 5-2. These procedures must be performed at the intervals shown in the maintenance schedule to assure that your warranty remains in effect. Although it is strongly recommended that they be performed by the factory-trained or distribu- tor-trained technicians at your Hyundai dealer, these procedures may be performed at any qualified service facility. It is suggested that genuine Hyundai service parts be used for any required repairs or re- placements. Other parts of equivalent quality such as engine oil, engine coolant, manual or auto transmission oil, brake fluid and so on which are not supplied by Hyundai Motor Com- pany or its distributor may be used without affecting your warranty coverage but you should always be sure these are equivalent to the quality of the original Hyundai parts. Your Ser- vice Passport provides further information about your warranty coverage.

MAINTENANCE
REQUIREMENTS F010E01A-AAT Do-It-Yourself Maintenance If you are mechanically inclined, own a few tools that are required and want to take the time to do so, you can inspect and service a number of items. For more information about doing it your- self, see Section 6.
F010D01A-AAT General ChecksThese are the regular checks you should per- form when you drive your Hyundai or you fill the fuel tank. A list of these items will be found on page 6-4.
F010A01A-GAT MAINTENANCE INTERVALS Service Requirements To assure that you receive the greatest number of kilometers of satisfying operation from your Hyundai, certain maintenance procedures must be performed. Although careful design and en- gineering have reduced these to a minimum, those that are required are of the utmost impor- tance. It is your responsibility to have these mainte-nance procedures performed to comply with the terms of the warranties covering your new Hyundai. The Service Passport supplied with your new vehicle provides further information about these warranties. F010B01A-AAT Maintenance RequirementsThe maintenance required for your Hyundai can be divided into three main areas: o Specified scheduled procedures o General checks o Do-it-yourself maintenance F010F01A-AAT A Few Tips
o Whenever you have your Hyundai serviced,
keep copies of the service records in your glove box. This will help ensure that you can document that the required procedures have been performed to keep your warranties in effect. This is especially important when service is not performed by an authorized Hyundai dealer.
o If you choose to do your own maintenance
and repairs, you may find it helpful to havean official Hyundai Shop Manual. A copy of this publication may be purchased at your Hyundai dealer's parts department.
F020A01Y-GAT SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE RE- QUIREMENTS Inspection should be performed any time a malfunction is experienced or suspected. Re- ceipts for all emission control system services should be retained to demonstrate compliance with conditions of the emissions system war- ranty. For severe usage maintenance requirements, see page 5-6 of this section.

VEHICLE MAINTENANCE REQUIREMENTS 5-7
F060A01A-AAT EXPLANATION OF SCHEDULED MAIN- TENANCE ITEMS F060M01A-AAT o Engine Oil and FilterThe engine oil and filter should be changed at
the intervals specified in the maintenance sched- ule. If the car is being driven in severe condi- tions, more frequent oil and filter changes are required. F060B01A-AAT
o Drive BeltsInspect all drive belts for evidence of cuts, cracks, excessive wear or oil saturation and replace if necessary. Drive belts should be checked periodically for proper tension and adjusted as necessary. F060C01A-AAT
o Fuel Filter A clogged filter can limit the speed at which the vehicle may be driven, damage the emission system and cause hard starting. If an exces- sive amount of foreign matter accumulates in the fuel tank, the filter may require replacement more frequently.After installing a new filter, run the engine for several minutes, and check for leaks at the connections. Fuel filters should be installed by trained technicians.
F060D01A-AAT
o Fuel Lines, Fuel Hoses and Connec-
tions
Check the fuel lines, fuel hoses and connec- tions for leakage and damage. Have a trained technician replace any damaged or leaking parts immediately. F060E01A-AAT

o Vacuum, Crankcase
Ventilation Hoses
Inspect the surface of hoses for evidence ofheat and/or mechanical damage. Hard and brit- tle rubber, cracking, tears, cuts, abrasions, and excessive swelling indicate deterioration. Par- ticular attention should be paid to examine those hose surfaces nearest to high heat sourc- es, such as the exhaust manifold. Inspect the hose routing to assure that thehoses do not come in contact with any heat source, sharp edges or moving component which might cause heat damage or mechanical wear. Inspect all hose connections, such as clamps and couplings, to make sure they are secure, and that no leaks are present. Hoses should be replaced immediately if there is any evidence of deterioration or damage. F060H01A-AAT o Air Cleaner FilterA Genuine Hyundai air cleaner filter is recom- mended when the filter is replaced. F060J01A-AAT o Spark PlugsMake sure to install new spark plugs of the correct heat range. F070C01A-AAT o Engine CoolantThe coolant should be changed at the intervals specified in the maintenance sched- ule. F070D01A-AAT o Manual Transmission OilInspect the manual transmission oil according to the maintenance schedule. NOTE: If the oil level is low, check for possible leaks before adding oil. Do not overfill.
