Driving your vehicle
If you do decide to pull a trailer
Here are some important points if you
decide to pull a trailer:
• Consider using a sway control. You can
ask a towbar dealer about sway con-
trol.
• Do not do any towing with your car dur-
ing its first 1,200 miles (2,000 km) in
order to allow the engine to properly
run-in. Failure to heed this caution may
result in serious engine or transaxle
damage.
• When towing a trailer, be sure to con-
sult a HYUNDAI authorised repairer for
further
information
on
requirements such as a towing kit, etc.
• Always drive your vehicle at a moder-
ate speed (less than 60 mph/100
km/h). If your vehicle is a commercial
vehicle, drive less than 50 mph (80
km/h).
• On a long uphill grade, do not exceed
45 mph (70 km/h) or the posted towing
speed limit, whichever is lower.
• The chart contains important consider-
ations that have to do with weight:
