vehicle. A driver must  be in the vehi-

Towing in  this manner may  be done
only  on  hard-surfaced  roads  for   a
short  distance  and  at  low  speeds.
Also, the wheels,  axles, power train,
steering  and  brakes must  all  be  in

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  vertical
angle. Always pull straight ahead.
Do not use the  tow hooks to pull a
vehicle out  of mud,  sand  or other
conditions  from which  the  vehicle
cannot be driven out under its own
power.
Avoid towing a vehicle heavier than
the vehicle doing the towing.
The drivers of both vehicles should
communicate with  each  other fre-
quently.
ONC066027
If towing  is necessary, we  recom-
mend  you to  have  it done  by  an
authorized  HYUNDAI  dealer  or  a
commercial tow truck service.
