TRAILER TOWING
If  you  are  considering  towing  with
your  vehicle, you  should first  check
with  your  country's   Department  of
Motor  Vehicles   to  determine   their
legal requirements.
Since laws vary the requirements for
towing trailers, cars, or other types of
vehicles or apparatus  may differ. We
recommend that  you ask an  author-
ized HYUNDAI dealer.
