DRIVING YOUR HYUNDAI
o When replacement of any of the tires or
disc wheels is necessary, replace all of
them.
o Rotate the tires and check the tire pres-
sure at regular intervals.
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.

Driving 4WD Safely

Be sure to wear the seat belt.
o
If the vehicle is towed with its only two
wheels raised off the ground, the 4WD
system could be damaged.
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.
Check the brake condition after driving in
wet or muddy conditions. Press the brake
several 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.)
The stopping distance of the full-time 4WD
vehicle differs very little from that of the
2WD vehicle.
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
the 4 wheels, the performance of the full-
time 4WD vehicle is greatly affected by the
condition of the tires. Be sure to equip it with
all four tires of the same size and type.
