If the vehicle needs to be towed, call a professional towing
service. It is very dangerous to tow a vehicle with just a rope or
chain.
There are three popular methods of towing a vehicle :
- |
Flat-bed Towing
The operator loads the vehicle on the back of truck. This is the best way to transport the vehicle. |
- |
Wheel Lift Towing
The tow truck uses two pivoting arms that go under the tires
of the driving axle and lift them off the ground. The other two wheels
remain on the ground. |
- |
Towing with slings
The tow truck uses metal cables with hooks on the ends. These
hooks go around parts of the frame or suspension, and the cables lift
that end of the vehicle off the ground. The vehicle's suspension and
body can be seriously damaged if this method of towing is attempted.
If the vehicle cannot be transported by the flat-bed towing,
it should be towed with the wheels of the driving axle off the ground. |

the procedure above exactly. If you cannot shift the transaxle or start

It is the best to tow vehicle no farther than 30km (19miles),
and keep the speed below 50km/h (30mph). (For the full-time 4WD
vehicle, limit the towing distance to 1.5km (1mile) and 15km/h (10mph) |

Trying to lift or tow your vehicle by the bumpers will cause
serious damage to the vehicle. The bumpers are not designed to support
the vehicle's weight. |

Towing when ECS malfunctions
If the ECS malfunction indicator illuminates when there is no
air in the suspension, the vehicle height will become low, so do not
drive to protect the vehicle from the projections on the surface of the
ground. The vehicle should be only transported on a flat-bed.
Take your vehicle to an authorized HYUNDAI dealer by towing the vehicle and have the system checked.
When you load the vehicle onto the tow truck, the loading angle should be smaller than 6°.
If a disabled vehicle is immobile, do not forcibly continue the towing. |
