LIMITED-SLIP DIFFERENTIAL (Not all models)
A limited-slip differential, if equipped, is for the
rear wheel differential only. The features of this limited-slip differential are described below:
Just as with a conventional differential, the
wheel on one side is allowed to turn at adifferent speed from the wheel on the other sidewhen the vehicle is cornering. The differencebetween the limited-slip differential and a con-ventional differential is that if the wheel on oneside of the vehicle loses traction, a greateramount of torque is applied to the rear wheel onthe other side to improve traction.

EFFECTIVE BRAKING Braking system performance and friction mate-rial life are greatly affected by the driving styleadopted. The following suggestions are madeto assist in achieving the best results from thebraking system.
o Anticipate the road and conditions ahead in order that heavy braking may be avoided.
o When descending long gradients, use the engine to assist in retarding the vehicle tominimize the possibility of brake fade occur-ring. o When trailer towing, ensure that the trailer
brakes function correctly and use enginebraking to assist the vehicle braking system.
o Use only genuine Hyundai replacement brake pads and shoes to ensure consistentfriction characteristics and wear rates.
o After driving through deep water (e.g. fording), the brakes may become wet andperformance reduced. Always check brakeefficiency after emerging from the water anddry the brakes by lightly depressing thebrake pedal several times whilst driving slow-ly.
o Apply the parking brake only when the vehi- cle is at rest.
o Since the power assistance provided by the brake servo is derived from the engine,coasting with the engine turned off or towingof the vehicle with the engine turned off willresult in greatly increased pedal pressuresbeing required to stop the vehicle.
o Do not hold the vehicle on the upgrade with the accelerator pedal. This can cause thetransmission to overheat. Always use thebrake pedal or parking brake.
CAUTION:
o Whilst the full-time 4WD vehicle is being raised on a jack, never start the engine orcause the tyres to rotate. There is the danger that rotating tyres touching the ground could cause thevehicle to go off the jack and to jumpforward.
o If one of the front or rear wheels begins to spin in mud, snow, etc., the vehiclecan sometimes be driven out by depress-ing the accelerator pedal further; how-ever, avoid running the engine continu-ously at high rpm because doing so coulddamage the 4WD system.
WARNING:
o Avoid high cornering speeds.
o Do not make quick steering wheel move- ments, such as sharp lane charges or fast, sharp turns.
o The risk of rollover is greatly increased if you lose control of your vehicle at high-way speeds.
o In a collision crash, an unbelted person is significantly more likely to die than aperson wearing a seatbelt.
o Loss of control often occurs if two or more wheels drop off the roadway and thedriver oversteers to reenter the roadway.
o In the event your vehicle leaves the road- way, do not steer sharply. Instead, slowdown before pulling back into the travellanes.

Windscreen Washers & Wipers
The windscreen washer bottle should be filled with a solution of water and a proprietary winterscreen wash additive. The windscreen wipersshould not be used if the blades are frozen tothe windscreen or if they are covered withsnow, before this is removed. NOTE: Never allow undiluted screen washer fluid additive to spill upon the paintwork or useengine coolant anti-freeze since damage tothe paintwork may result.
o When driving in extreme conditions, the windscreen wiper blades may fail to clearthe screen properly due to the formation ofice upon the blade edge. It will therefore benecessary to periodically remove such iceto restore their efficiency.
o If the power operated door mirrors become frozen, attempts to adjust these may dam-age the mechanism.
o The formation of snow or ice build up inside the wheel arches may interfere with theroadwheels or steering mechanism. In suchinstances, unusual noises or an increase insteering effort may result. Therefore, ensurethat the wheelarches are checked periodi-cally and any accumulated snow or ice re-moved.

Electrical System
Winter conditions impose severe demands upon
vehicle electrical systems, particularly the charg-ing circuit. The battery condition and perfor-mance along with the alternator performanceand drive belt condition should be checked priorto the onset of winter.
YC170C1-E
Anti-freeze/Corrosion inhibitor The cooling system must always contain anEthylene-Glycol based anti-freeze solution. Thesystem is filled during manufacture with solu-tion of the correct strength which should bechecked before the onset of winter and adjust-ed or changed as required. NOTE: The anti-freeze solution contains a corro- sion inhibitor to prevent degradation of thealuminium castings contained within theengine. Therefore, never, drain the systemand refill with water only. In addition, anti-freeze solution must ALWAYS be used in vehicles fitted with air conditioning,to prevent the heater matrix from freezing andsubsequently bursting with the refrigeration sys-tem in use. ZC170D1-E
Door Locks
Should the door lock mechanism become fro-zen, a proprietary lock de-icer should be used.Alternatively, warming the door key may thawthe door lock. However, the key should behandled carefully to avoid burning the fingers. Never attempt to thaw a frozen door lock using hot water, since the water will eventually freezeand compound the problem. NOTE: The proper temperature for using the immo-bilizer key is from -40°F to 176°F (-40°C to80°C). If you heat the immobilizer key over176°F to open the frozen lock, it may causedamage to the transponder in its head.

DRIVING YOUR HYUNDAI
2- 18 NOTE:
1. Never load the trailer with more weight in the back than in the front. About 60% of the trailer load should be in the front halfon the trailer and the remaining 40% inthe rear.
2. The total gross vehicle weight with trailer must not exceed the Gross Vehicle WeightRating (GVWR) shown on the vehicleidentification plate (see page 8-1). Thetotal gross vehicle weight is the com-bined weight of the vehicle, driver, allpassengers and their luggage, cargo,towbar hitch, trailer nose weight and otheroptional equipment.
3. The front or rear axle weight must not exceed the Gross Axle Weight Rating(GAWR) shown on the vehicle identifica-tion 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 much luggage in the trunk can overload therear axle. Redistribute the load and checkthe axle weight again.
4. The maximum permissible static vertical load (nose weight) on the coupling de-vice is 254 Lbs. (115kg) 5. The maximum permissible overhang of
the coupling point is 48.4 inches (1230mm).

Important Trailer Weight Information
The Maximum Towable Weight of your Hyundai Terracan will be reduced if the vehicle is load. The Maximum Towable Weight for a fully load is vehicle is calculated as follows:
1. Find the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) plate (see section 8).
2. Note the top 2 weights (in kg) of the 4 lines of weight information on the VIN plate.
3. Subtract the weight on line 1 from line 2. This result (in kg) is the maximum towableweight of a fully loaded vehicle. For more information, contact your local Hyundai Dealer.

IF YOU LOSE YOUR KEYS
Information about the key of immobiliser sys-
tem will be found on page 1-2. For emergency towing when no commercial tow vehicle is available, attach a tow cable,chain or strap to one of the towing hooks underthe front of your car. Be very careful whenattempting this procedure when the vehicle ison any unpaved surface to avoid damage toyour vehicle. Nor should towing be attempted if the wheels, drive train, axles, steering or brakes are dam-aged. Before towing, be sure the transmissionis in neutral and the key is in "ACC" (with theengine off) or in the "ON" position (with theengine running). A driver must be in the towedcar to steer it and operate the brakes. NOTE: To avoid serious damage to your 4WD ve- hicle, limit the towing to 10 mph (15 km/h)and not for more than 1 mile (1.5 km) at ANYTIME.
