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
break 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 additional
requirements such as a towing kit, etc.
• Always drive your vehicle at a moderate
speed (less than 60 mph (100 km/h)).
• On a long uphill grade, do not exceed
45 mph (70 km/h) or the posted towing
speed limit, whichever is lower.

ations that have to do with weight:
