If Your Vehicle Must Be Towed

If your vehicle has to be towed, it should be done by your Hyundai dealer or a commercial tow truck service. This will help assure that your vehicle is not damaged in towing. Also, professionals are generally aware of local laws governing towing. In any case, rather than risk damage to your car, it is suggested that you show this information to the tow truck operator. Be sure that a safety chain system is used and that all local laws are observed.

It is recommended that your vehicle be towed with a wheel lift and dollies or flatbed equipment with all the wheels off the ground.

CAUTION:

o Your vehicle can be damaged if towed incorrectly!

o Be sure the transaxle is in neutral.

o When the engine will not start, be sure the steering is unlocked by placing the key in the "ACC" position.
