What to do in an emergency
CAUTION
WARNING
Attach  a  towing  strap to  the
tow hook.
Using a portion  of the vehicle
other  than the  tow  hooks for
towing may  damage the body
of your vehicle.
Use   only  a   cable   or  chain
specifically  intended  for  use
in  towing   vehicles.  Securely
fasten  the  cable  or  chain  to
the towing hook provided.
Use extreme caution  when tow-
ing the vehicle.
Avoid sudden starts or erratic
driving     maneuvers    which
would place  excessive stress
on   the   emergency    towing
hook   and   towing   cable   or
chain. The   hook  and  towing
cable or chain may  break and
cause serious  injury or  dam-
age.
OXM069009
Use a  towing strap  less than  5 m
(16 feet) long. Attach a white or red
cloth  (about   30  cm   (12  inches)
wide) in the middle  of the strap for
easy visibility.
Drive  carefully so  that  the towing
strap  is not  loosened  during tow-
ing.
If   the    disabled   vehicle    is
unable  to  be  moved,  do  not
forcibly  continue  the  towing.
We recommend  that you con-
tact  an  authorized  HYUNDAI
dealer  or  a   commercial  tow
truck service for assistance.
Before  emergency  towing,  check
that the hook is not broken or dam-
aged.
Fasten  the towing  cable  or  chain
securely to the hook.
Do not jerk the hook. Apply  steady
and even force.
To  avoid  damaging  the  hook,  do
not pull from  the side or at a  verti-
cal   angle.   Always   pull   straight
ahead.
•  Tow  the   vehicle  as   straight
ahead as possible.
•  Keep  away  from  the  vehicle
during towing.
