2010 Hyundai Veracruz Owners Manual

Driving your vehicle
NOTICE
CAUTION - Mud or snow
WARNING - AWD driving
•  Avoid high cornering speed.
Do   not    make   quick   steering
wheel movements, such as sharp
lane changes or fast, sharp turns.
The  risk   of   rollover  is   greatly
increased  if  you lose  control  of
your vehicle at high speed.
In a collision, an unbelted person
is significantly  more likely to  die
compared to  a person  wearing a
seat belt.
Loss  of  control  often  occurs  if
two or  more wheels  drop off  the
roadway   and   the   driver    over
steers to re-enter  the roadway. In
the event your  vehicle leaves the
roadway,  do   not  steer   sharply.
Instead, slow down before pulling
back into the travel lanes.
Do  not  drive  in  water if  the  level  is
higher than the bottom of the vehicle.
Check your brake condition once you
are  out  of  mud  or  water.  Press  the
brake pedal several times as you move
slowly until you feel normal braking
forces return.
Shorten your  scheduled maintenance
interval if you drive in off-road condi-
tions such as sand, mud or  water (see
“Maintenance    under   severe   usage
conditions” in section 7). Always wash
your car thoroughly after off road use,
especially  cleaning  the  under side  of
the vehicle.
Since  the   driving  torque   is  always
applied to the 4 wheels the perform-
ance  of  the  AWD  vehicle  is   greatly
affected by the condition of the tires.
Be sure to equip the vehicle with four
tires of the same size and type.
A full time all wheel drive vehicle can-
not  be   towed   by  an   ordinary  tow
truck.  Make  sure  that  the  vehicle  is
placed on a flat bed truck for moving.
If  one  of the  front  or  rear  wheels
begins  to  spin in  mud,  snow,  etc.
the vehicle can  sometimes be driv-
en out  by depressing the  accelera-
tor  pedal   further;  however   avoid
running the engine  continuously at
high  rpm because  doing  so could
damage the AWD system.
