Four Wheel Drive (4WD) transfer mode selectionTransfer mode Selection buttonIndicator lightDescription
o This mode is used for climbing or descending sharp grades,
off-road driving, driving on sandy and muddy roads etc. to
maximize traction.
o This mode automatically begins to deactivate at speed above
19 mph (30 km/h) and is shifted to 4WD AUTO mode at speed
above 25 mph (40 km/h). If the vehicle decelerates to speeds
below 19 mph (30 km/h), however, the transfer mode is shifted
into 4WD LOCK mode again.
o When driving in AUTO mode, the vehicle operates similar to
the conventional 2WD vehicles under normal operating con-
ditions. However, if the system determines that there is a need
for the 4WD mode, the engine’s driving power is distributed
to all four wheels automatically without driver intervention.
o When driving on normal roads and pavement, the vehicle
moves similar to the conventional 2WD vehicles.

NOTE:o When driving on normal roads, deactivate the 4WD LOCK mode by pushing the 4WD LOCK button(the indicator light goes off).
Driving on normal roads with 4WD LOCK mode(especially, when cornering) may cause mechanical noise or vibration. The noise
and vibration will disappear when the 4WD LOCK mode is deactivated. Some parts of the power train may be damaged by
prolonged driving with the noise and vibration.
o When the 4WD LOCK mode is deactivated, a shock may be felt as the drive power delivered entirely to the front wheels. This
shock is not a mechanical failure.

D080C04JMdollydolly
When towing the 4WD vehicle, it must be
towed by lifting all 4 wheels or using the
towing dolly.
CAUTION:
o The 4WD vehicle should never be
towed with the wheels on the ground.
This can cause serious damage to the
transaxle or the 4WD system.
o When towing the vehicle, take care
not to cause damage to the bumper or
underbody of the vehicle.

o Do not tow with sling type truck as this
may cause damage to the bumper or
underbody of the vehicle.

WHAT TO DO IN AN EMERGENCY

IF YOU LOSE YOUR KEYSD120A01A-AATIf you lose your keys, many Hyundai deal-
ers can make you a new key if you have
your key number. If you lock the keys inside
your car and you cannot obtain a new key,
many Hyundai dealers can use special
tools to open the door for you. For emergency towing when no commer-
cial tow vehicle is available, attach a tow
cable, chain or strap to one of the towing
hooks under the front/rear of your vehicle.
Be very careful when attempting this pro-
cedure when the vehicle is on any un-
paved 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 transaxle is in neutral and the key
is in "ACC" (with the engine off) or in the
"ON" position (with the engine running). A
driver must be in the towed vehicle to steer
it and operate the brakes.
NOTE:o To avoid serious damage to your 4WD
vehicle, limit the towing to 15 km/h (10
mph) and not for more than 1.5 km (1
mile) at ANY TIME.
o Before towing, check the level of the
automatic transaxle fluid. If it is below
the "75°C" range on the dipstick, add
fluid. If you cannot add fluid, a towing
dolly must be used.
CAUTION:
If the Engine is not running, the power
assist for the brakes and steering will
not work so steering and braking will be
much harder than usual.
CAUTION:
If the car is being towed with all four
wheels on the ground, it can be towed
only from the front. Be sure that the
transaxle is in neutral. Do not tow at
speeds greater than 50 km/h (30 mph)
and for more than 25 km (15 miles).
Be sure the steering is unlocked by plac-
ing the key in the "ACC" position. A
driver must be in the towed vehicle to
operate the steering and brakes.
