2011 Hyundai Santa Fe Owners Manual

What to do in an emergency
TOWING
On AWD  vehicles, your vehicle  must be
towed  with  a  wheel  lift  and  dollies   or
flatbed equipment with all  the wheels off
the ground.
WARNING
If your vehicle is equipped with side
and curtain air bag, set  the ignition
switch  to  LOCK  or  ACC   position
when the vehicle is being towed.
The  side and  curtain  air  bag  may
deploy  when  the  ignitions  is  ON,
and the rollover sensor  detects the
situation as a rollover.
CAUTION
The  AWD vehicle  should  never be
towed   with   the   wheels    on   the
ground.  This   can   cause  serious
damage to the transaxle or the AWD
system.
dolly
On 2WD vehicles, it  is acceptable to tow
the vehicle  with  the rear  wheels on  the
ground  (without   dollies)  and  the   front
wheels off the ground.
If  any of  the loaded  wheels  or suspen-
sion  components  are  damaged  or  the
vehicle  is   being  towed  with   the  front
wheels on the ground, use a towing dolly
under the front wheels.
When being towed  by a commercial  tow
truck and wheel dollies are not used,  the
front of the  vehicle should always be lift-
ed, not the rear.

Towing service
If  emergency  towing  is  necessary,  we
recommend having it done by an author-
ized  HYUNDAI dealer  or  a  commercial
tow-truck service. Proper  lifting and tow-
ing procedures are necessary  to prevent
damage to the vehicle. The use of wheel
dollies or flatbed is recommended.
For trailer  towing guidelines information,
refer to “Trailer towing” in section 5.
