14 DRIVINGYOURHYUNDAI
When driving on a snow-covered road or a
slippery, muddy surface, make sure that
you keep a sufficient distance between your
vehicle and the one ahead of you.
Since the driving torque is always applied to
the4wheels,theperformanceofthefull-time
4WD vehicle is greatly affected by the con-
dition of the tires. Be sure to equip it with all
four tires of the same size and type.
NOTE:
!
To avoid serious damage to your 4WD ve-
hicle, limit towing to 10 mph and not for
more than 1 mile at ANY TIME.
WARNING:
This vehicle is designed primarily for on
road use. Driving the vehicle in challenging
off-road conditions for which it was not
designed may result in damage to the ve-
hicle. Driving in conditions that exceed the
vehicle's intended design or the driver's
experience level may result in severe injury
or death.

(9)For speedometer test or inspection/mainte-
nance (I/M) program of SANTA FE 4WD,
use a four wheel chassis dynamometer.
o
When replacement of any of the tires or
disc wheels is necessary, replace all of
them.

Never engage the parking brake while per-
forming these tests.
CAUTION:

Rotate the tires and check the tire pres-
sure at regular intervals.
Driving 4WD Safely
(8)
The full-time 4WD vehicle cannot be
towed by an ordinary tow truck. Make
sure that the vehicle is towed with its
four wheels raised off the ground.

Be sure to wear the seat belt.
Do not drive in challenging off-road condi-
tions or areas that exceed the vehicle's
basic design intent or the driver's experi-
ence level.
Drive at lower speeds in strong crosswinds.
Because of your vehicle's high center of
gravity, its stability will be affected in cross-
winds. Slower speeds ensure better vehicle
control.
Checkthebrakeconditionafterdrivinginwet
or muddy conditions. Press the brake sev-
eral times as you move slowly until you feel
normal braking forces return.
Do not drive the vehicle through water. (i.e.
streams, rivers, lakes, etc.)

Roadside Assistance Program:
Off-roading is not covered. To receive
service, the vehicle must be on a publicly
maintained road.

If the vehicle is towed with its only two
wheels raised off the ground, the 4WD
system could be damaged.

being towed with all four wheels on the
ground, it should be towed only forward
direction with rope.
