CAUTION:
o The 4WD vehicle should never be towed with the wheels on the ground. This can cause serious damage to the transmission or the 4WD system.
o When towing the vehicle, take care not to cause damage to the bumperor underbody of the vehicle.
o Do not tow with sling type truck as this may cause damage to thebumper or underbody of the ve-hicle. D080D03HP-EAT Emergency Towing
For emergency towing when no com- mercial yow vehicle is avaiable, attachchain or strap to one of the towing hooks under the front/rear of your car. Be very careful when attempting thisprocedure when the vehicle is on any unpaved surface to avoid damage to your vehicle.Nor should towing be attempted if the wheels, drive train, axles, steering or brakes are damaged. Before towing,be sure the transmission is in neutral and the key is in "ACC" (with the engine off) or in the "ON" position (withthe engine running). A driver must be in the towed car to steer it and operate the brakes.Front

ZE020B1-E Underbody Coatings Every Hyundai passenger car receives a full underbody and cavity injectiontreatment during production. In order that this treatment may retain maxi- mum effectiveness, it is recommendedthat the underbody receives a power wash and a thorough inspection after each winter season. In doing so anyaccumulations of mud, which act as moisture traps and combine with road salts to accelerate corrosion, will beremoved. Should any damage to or deterioration of the underbody coating be apparent, the advice of a Hyundaiauthorised repairer regarding the use of a compatible repair material should be sought.NOTE: The underbody should never be steam cleaned since the underbody coating may be removed by thisprocess. During the interim period between power washing the underbody, themore vulnerable areas such as wheelarches should be hosed off, particularly during the winter sea-son to prevent prolonged contact of road salt with the body. Ensure that the various drain pointslocated at bottom of the door pan- els are kept clear, to prevent water becoming trapped within the cavi-ties. Wherever possible, the park- ing of the vehicle in a confined, poorly ventilated location (e.g.)garage should be avoided when the vehicle is wet or covered with snow or ice. Under these conditions, theinternal cavities of the vehicle will remain damp for long periods of time which encourage corrosion.Parking the vehicle where good ventilation exists is preferable.APPEARANCE CARE
ZE020A1-E In using the most advanced design and construction practices, every Hyundai is built to retain its original factory finish for many years. How-ever, long term durability is also greatly dependant upon maintaining the vari- ous protection systems and coatingsused in manufacture since constant exposure to the elements will eventu- ally result in their breakdown and lossof effectiveness. The following sug- gestions are made to assist in the maintenance of the vehicle bodywork.

ZE020C1-E Interior During the winter period, it is possible that the carpet within the passengercompartment may become wet. The carpet should not be allowed to remain in this condition for prolonged periodssince the carpet may begin to create musty smells and promote internal corrosion of the floorpan. Use only a shampoo intended for thepurpose and ensure that the body workis thoroughly wet to soften the dirt film prior to attempting to remove this. After removing the dirt film with a softsponge, the body work should be thor- oughly rinsed and then dried with a good quality chamois leather to pre-vent streaking or spotting of the paint work. Household detergents, solvents andabrasive cleaning materials should not be used in order to avoid damaging the paint film.Plastic wheel covers should be cleaned using a sponge and water. Cast alloy wheels should be cleaned using a mildsoap or neutral detergent. Abrasive compounds must not be used since in the event of these damaging the lac-quer coating, oxidisation of the alu- minium wheel will occur, spoiling the appearance.The use of a toothbrush will facilitate cleaning between the wheel "spokes".VALETING
JE050A1-E Regular cleaning of the exterior paintwork serves two important func- tions. Firstly, the removal of abrasive dirt and contaminants will maintain thelustre of the paintwork and will prevent discolouration and dulling due to pro- longed contact.Secondly, the presence of damage through impact or abrasion will be ap- parent allowing early rectification to bemade thus preventing corrosion from becoming established and spreading beneath the paint film. To avoid "waterspotting" the vehicle should not be washed in direct sunlight particularly in the case of vehicles having dark bodycolours. The heat from the sun rays is absorbed by the paint film increasing the surface temperature. This actioncauses water used for washing to evaporate quickly leaving behind the deposits from the water and the sham-poo used.

JE070A1-E POLISHING The exterior paint work should be pol- ished with a proprietary wax polish when water no longer collects in beadform on the paint work. The instruc- tions of the product manufacturer should be adhered to. JE080A1-E BUMPER MAINTENANCE The special material from which the bumpers are manufactured warrantsspecial attention to preserve the ap- pearance of the bumpers. Avoid con- tact with battery electrolyte or brakefluid and ensure that accidental spill- ages are immediately flushed with water.Do not use abrasive cleaning materi- als which may damage the bumpers. Avoid subjecting the bumpers to hightemperatures E.g encountered in high bake paint ovens.
JE090A1-E BODY WORK REPAIRS In the event of the body work sustain- ing damage, the following points shouldbe noted prior to repairs being under- taken. If body panels are replaced or re-paired, anti corrosion treatment must be applied to the repair area. The product used must be compatible withthose used in manufacture. It is rec- ommended that repairs are entrusted to a Hyundai authorised repairer to en-sure that replacement parts used are of the same high quality as those used in manufacture of the vehicle and that thecorrect repair methods and materials will ensure adequate levels of corrosion protection and the continued validity ofthe Anti Perforation Warranty.
JE060A1-E STAIN/SPOT REMOVAL Should tree sap, dead insects or tar prove to be difficult to remove from thepaint film, turpentine or a proprietary paint cutting compound may be used. Ensure that the area to be cleaned isnot rubbed intensively to prevent break- ing through the colour coat and expos- ing the under coat.

JE100A1-E SEAT BELTS Seat belts should be cleaned only with a mild soap solution. Strong deter-gents, solvents or bleaches may dam- age the belt webbing and therefore re- duce the effectiveness of the belt. Beltswhich display signs of fraying, wear or cuts should be replaced.INTERIOR VALETING
JE110A1-E The soft trim and carpets should be maintained with the regular use of a vacuum cleaner. Heavy soiling should be removed with a dry cleaning agentrecommended for this purpose follow- ing the instructions of the product manufacturer. Paint thinner, solventsor other such cleaning materials should not be used since damage to the up- holstery may result. JE120A1-E WINDOWS A proprietary glass cleaner should be used to clean the inside of the win-dows. However, the rear heated windscreen must only be cleaned us- ing a light horizontal cleaning action.Care should be exercised to avoid the use of abrasive cleaners or contact with items of jewellery which may dam-age the heating elements. YE010A1-E To Clean Leather Upholstery (Not all models) In the normal course of use, leather upholstered surfaces will, like any material, pick-up dust and dirt. Thisdust and dirt MUST be cleaned off or it may work into the surface of the leather, causing damage.Fine leather needs care. This care, as with all fine things, need not be elabo- rate, but should include cleaning whennecessary. Washing leather thoroughly with soap and water will keep your leather lustrous, beautiful and ensureyou have many years of wear. Take a piece of cheese cloth and using any mild soap and lukewarm water,work up a good lather. Thoroughly wash the leather. Wipe clean with a slightly damp cloth and dry with softcloth. Do this as often as the leather becomes soiled.

During tanning operations, sufficient oils are incorporated through process-ing that none need be applied during the life of the leather. Oil applied to the finished surface will in no way help theleather and may do more harm than good. Varnished and furniture polishes should NEVER be used under anyconditions.

Specified Scheduled Procedures
The specified scheduled procedures
are listed in the maintenance chartsbeginning at page 5-3. The operationsspecified must be performed at the time or mileage intervals shown irre- spective of whether the mileage inter-val has been reached before the speci- fied time interval.
Certain lubricants and components
degrade with both time and mileage(eg, engine oil and brake fluid) and therefore it is not permissable to basethe maintenance schedule upon mile- age alone. DF020F1-E
SERVICE HISTORY
It is important that all scheduled main-
tenance services are recorded in the warranty and service passport to en- sure that proof of maintenance is avail- able when warranty service is required. It is strongly recommended that the
maintenance operations are performedby a Hyundai authorised repairer be- cause of the need for specialised knowl- edge and tooling and to ensure that nopossibility of invalidating the manufac- turers warranty exists.
The maintenance schedules relate to
vehicles operated under normal condi-tions, vehicles which are operated under adverse conditions will requiremore frequent maintenance which is described at page 5-6. NOTE:
Service schedules may change de-
pending on individual country needs. Please ask your local Hyundai authorised repairer for a copy of the service schedule thatrelates to that country.MAINTENANCE AND SER- VICING REQUIREMENTS
DF020A1-E To ensure the continued reliability and safety of the vehicle, certain routine maintenance operations are requiredat specific mileage or time intervals.It is the responsibility of the vehicleowner to ensure that the maintenanceschedules shown in both this Owner's Manual and the Warranty and Service Passport are adhered to.The new vehicle warranty may beinvalidated if the routine maintenanceoperations are not performed in line with the recommendations outlined and the safety and durability of the vehicleadversely affected.It is recommended that all mainte-nance operations with the exception ofthe daily operating checks are en- trusted to a Hyundai authorised re- pairer to ensure that the latest repairand maintenance procedures and spe- cialized servicing tools are employed. In addition, the use of genuine Hyundaireplacement parts will ensure that the vehicle safety and performance will not be compromised.
