CUSTOM Mode Features

SMART mode

SMART mode selects the proper driving

mode among SMART ECO, SMART

COMFORT and SMART SPORT by judging

the driver's driving habits (for example,

mild or dynamic) from the brake pedal

depression or the steering wheel

operation.

Various driving situations, which you may

encounter in SMART mode

• The driving mode automatically

changes to ECO mode after a certain

period of time, when you gently

depress the accelerator pedal (Your

driving is categorized to be mild.).

• The driving mode automatically

changes from SMART ECO mode to

SMART COMFORT mode after a certain

period of time, when you sharply or

repetitively depress the accelerator

pedal.

• The driving mode automatically

changes to SMART COMFORT mode

with the same driving patterns, when

the vehicle starts to drive on an upward

slope of a certain angle. The driving

mode automatically returns to SMART

ECO mode, when the vehicle enters a

leveled road.

• The driving mode automatically

changes to SMART SPORT mode only in

harsh driving situations. In most of the

normal driving situations, the driving

mode sets to be either in SMART ECO

mode or in SMART COMFORT mode.

• The driving mode automatically

changes to SMART SPORT, when you

abruptly accelerate the vehicle or

repetitively operate the steering wheel

(Your driving is categorized to be

sporty.). In this mode, your vehicle

drives in a lower gear for abrupt

accelerating or decelerating and

increases the engine brake

performance.

For general description of SMART ECO,

SMART COMFORT, and SMART SPORT

modes, refer to “ECO, COMFORT, SPORT

mode features”.

Limitation of SMART mode

SMART may be limited in following

Special Driving

Conditions

Hazardous Driving Conditions

When hazardous driving elements are

encountered such as water, snow, ice,

mud and sand, take the following

precautions:
• Drive cautiously and maintain a longer

braking distance.

• Avoid abrupt braking or steering.
• When your vehicle is stuck in snow,

mud, or sand, use second gear.

Accelerate slowly to avoid unnecessary

wheel spin.

• Put sand, rock salt, tire chains or other

non-slip materials under the wheels to

provide additional traction while the

vehicle becomes stuck in ice, snow, or

mud.

WARNING

Using the paddle shifters to downshift to

a lower gear while driving on slippery

surfaces can cause an accident. The

sudden change in tire speed could cause

the tires to skid. Be careful when

downshifting on slippery surfaces.

Rocking the Vehicle

If it is necessary to rock the vehicle to free

it from snow, sand, or mud, first turn the

steering wheel right and left to clear the

area around your front wheels. Then, shift

back and forth between R (Reverse) and a

forward gear.
Try to avoid spinning the wheels, and do

not race the engine.
To prevent transmission wear, wait until

the wheels stop spinning before shifting

gears. Release the accelerator pedal

while shifting, and press lightly on the

accelerator pedal while the transmission

is in gear. Slowly spinning the wheels in

forward and reverse directions causes a

rocking motion that may free the vehicle.

WARNING

If the vehicle is stuck and excessive wheel

spin occurs, the temperature in the tires

can increase very quickly. If the tires

become damaged, a tire blow out or tire

explosion can occur. This condition is

dangerous - you and others may be

injured. Do not attempt this procedure if

people or objects are anywhere near the

vehicle.
If you attempt to free the vehicle, the

vehicle can overheat quickly, possibly

causing an engine compartment fire or

other damage. Try to avoid spinning the

wheels as much as possible to prevent

overheating of either the tires or the

engine. DO NOT allow the vehicle to spin

the wheels above 35 mph (56 km/h).

Information

The ESC system must be turned OFF

before rocking the vehicle.

CarManuals2.com

Driving Your Vehicle

6-56

NOTICE

If you are still stuck after rocking the

vehicle a few times, have the vehicle

pulled out by a tow vehicle to avoid

engine overheating, possible damage to

the transmission, and tire damage. See

“Towing” section in chapter 8.

Smooth Cornering

Avoid braking or gear changing in

corners, especially when roads are wet.

Ideally, corners should always be taken

under gentle acceleration.

Driving at Night

Night driving presents more hazards than

driving in the daylight. Here are some

important tips to remember:
• Slow down and keep more distance

between you and other vehicles, as it

may be more difficult to see at night,

especially in areas where there may not

be any street lights.

• Adjust your mirrors to reduce the glare

from other drivers’ headlights.

• Keep your headlights clean and

properly aimed. Dirty or improperly

aimed headlights will make it much

more difficult to see at night.

• Avoid staring directly at the headlights

of oncoming vehicles. You could be

temporarily blinded, and it will take

several seconds for your eyes to

readjust to the darkness.

Driving in the Rain

Rain and wet roads can make driving

dangerous. Here are a few things to

consider when driving in the rain or on

slick pavement:
• Slow down and allow extra following

distance. A heavy rainfall makes it

harder to see and increases the

distance needed to stop your vehicle.

• Turn OFF your Cruise Control. (if

equipped)

• Replace your windshield wiper blades

when they show signs of streaking or

missing areas on the windshield.

• Be sure your tires have enough tread. If

your tires do not have enough tread,

making a quick stop on wet pavement

can cause a skid and possibly lead to an

accident. See “Tire Replacement”

section in chapter 9.

• Turn on your headlights to make it

easier for others to see you.

• Driving too fast through large puddles

can affect your brakes. If you must go

through puddles, try to drive through

them slowly.

• If you believe your brakes may be wet,

apply them lightly while driving until

normal braking operation returns.

Hydroplaning

If the road is wet enough and you are

going fast enough, your vehicle may have

little or no contact with the road surface

and actually ride on the water. The best

advice is SLOW DOWN when the road is

wet.
The risk of hydroplaning increases as the

depth of tire tread decreases, refer to

“Tire Replacement” section in chapter 9.

Driving in Flooded Areas

Avoid driving through flooded areas

unless you are sure the water is no higher

than the bottom of the wheel hub. Drive

through any water slowly. Allow adequate

stopping distance because brake

performance may be reduced.
After driving through water, dry the

brakes by gently applying them several

times while the vehicle is moving slowly.

CarManuals2.com

6-57

Highway Driving

Tires

Adjust the tire inflation, as specified.

Under-inflation may overheat or damage

the tires.
Do not install worn-out or damaged tires,

which may reduce traction or fail the

braking operation.

Information

Never over-inflate your tires above the

maximum inflation pressure, as specified

on your tires.

Fuel, engine coolant and engine oil

Driving at higher speeds on the highway

consumes more fuel and is less efficient

than driving at a slower, more moderate

speed. Maintain a moderate speed in

order to conserve fuel when driving on

the highway.
Be sure to check both the engine coolant

level and the engine oil before driving.

Drive belt

A loose or damaged drive belt may

overheat the engine.

Reducing the Risk of a

Rollover

Your multi-purpose passenger vehicle is

defined as a Sports Utility Vehicle (SUV).

SUV’s have higher ground clearance and

a narrower track to make them capable of

performing in a wide variety of off-road

applications. The specific design

characteristics give them a higher center

of gravity than ordinary vehicles making

them more likely to roll over if you make

abrupt turns. Utility vehicles have a

significantly higher rollover rate than

other types of vehicles. Due to this risk,

driver and passengers are strongly

recommended to buckle their seat belts.

In a rollover crash, an unbelted person is

significantly more likely to die than a

person wearing a seat belt.
There are steps that a driver can make to

reduce the risk of a rollover. If at all

possible, avoid sharp turns or abrupt

maneuvers, do not load your vehicle with

heavy cargo on the roof, and never

modify your vehicle in any way.

WARNING

Utility vehicles have a significantly higher

rollover rate than other types of vehicles.

To prevent rollovers or loss of control:
• Take corners at slower speeds than you

would with a passenger vehicle.

• Avoid sharp turns and abrupt

maneuvers.

• Do not modify your vehicle in any way

that you would raise the center of

gravity.

• Keep tires properly inflated.
• Do not carry heavy cargo on the roof.

WARNING

In a rollover crash, an unbelted person is

significantly more likely to die than a

person wearing a seat belt. Make sure all

passengers are wearing their seat belts.

Winter Driving

The severe weather conditions of winter

quickly wear out tires and cause other

problems. To minimize winter driving

problems, you should take the following

suggestions:

Snow or Icy Conditions

You need to keep sufficient distance

between your vehicle and the vehicle in

front of you.
Apply the brakes gently. Speeding, rapid

acceleration, sudden brake applications,

and sharp turns are potentially very

hazardous practices. During deceleration,

use engine braking to the fullest extent.

Sudden brake applications on snowy or

icy roads may cause the vehicle to skid.
To drive your vehicle in deep snow, it may

be necessary to use snow tires or to install

tire chains on your tires.
Always carry emergency equipment.

Some of the items you may want to carry

include tire chains, tow straps or chains, a

flashlight, emergency flares, sand, a

shovel, jumper cables, a window scraper,

gloves, ground cloth, coveralls, a blanket,

etc.

Snow tires

WARNING

Snow tires should be equivalent in size

and type to the vehicle’s standard tires.

Otherwise, the safety and handling of

your vehicle may be adversely affected.

If you mount snow tires on your vehicle,

make sure to use the same Inflation

pressure as the original tires. Mount snow

tires on all four wheels to balance your

vehicle’s handling in all weather

conditions. The traction provided by

snow tires on dry roads may not be as

high as your vehicle’s original equipment

tires. Check with the tire dealer for

maximum speed recommendations.

if equipped

Summer tires

• Summer tires are used to maximize the

driving performance on dry roads.

• If the temperature is below 44.6 °F (7

°C) or you are driving on snowy or icy

roads, the summer tires lose their brake

performance and traction as the tire

grip weakens significantly.

• If the temperature is below 44.6 °F (7

°C) or you are driving on snowy or icy

roads, mount snow tires or all-season

tires of the same size with your

vehicle’s standard tire for safe driving.

Both snow and all-season tires have

M+S markings.

• When using the M+S tires, use tires with

the same tread produced by the same

manufacturer for safe driving.

• When driving with the M+S tires with

the lower maximum allowable speed

than that of the vehicle’s standard

summer tire, be careful not to exceed

the speed allowed for the M+S tires.

CarManuals2.com

6-59

Tire chains

B0308EU01

Since the sidewalls of radial tires are

thinner than other types of tires, they may

be damaged by mounting some types of

tire chains on them. Therefore, the use of

snow tires is recommended instead of tire

chains. If tire chains must be used, use

genuine HYUNDAI Parts and install the

tire chain after reviewing the instructions

provided with the tire chains. Damage to

your vehicle caused by improper tire

chain use is not covered by your vehicle

manufacturer’s warranty.

WARNING

The use of tire chains may adversely

affect vehicle handling:
• Drive less than 20 mph (30 km/h) or the

chain manufacturer’s recommended

speed limit, whichever is lower.

• Drive carefully and avoid bumps, holes,

sharp turns, and other road hazards,

which may cause the vehicle to

bounce.

• Avoid sharp turns or locked wheel

braking.

Information

• Install tire chains only in pairs and on

the front tires. It should be noted that

installing tire chains on the tires will

provide a greater driving force, but will

not prevent side skids.

• Do not install studded tires without first

checking local and municipal

regulations for possible restrictions

against their use.

Chain Installation

When installing tire chains, follow the

manufacturer’s instructions and mount

them as tightly possible. Drive slowly (less

than 20 mph (30 km/h)) with chains

installed. If you hear the chains

contacting the body or chassis, stop and

tighten them. If they still make contact,

slow down until the noise stops. Remove

the tire chains as soon as you begin

driving on cleared roads.
When mounting snow chains, park the

vehicle on level ground away from traffic.

Turn on the vehicle Hazard Warning

Flasher and place a triangular emergency

warning device behind the vehicle (if

available). Always place the vehicle in P

(Park), apply the parking brake and turn

off the engine before installing snow

chains.

CarManuals2.com

Driving Your Vehicle

6-60

NOTICE

When using tire chains:
• Wrong size chains or improperly

installed chains can damage your

vehicle’s brake lines, suspension, body

and wheels.

• Use SAE “S” class or wire chains.
• If you hear noise caused by chains

contacting the body, retighten the

chain to prevent contact with the

vehicle body.

• To prevent body damage, retighten the

chains after driving 0.3-0.6 miles

(0.5-1.0 km).

• Do not use tire chains on vehicles

equipped with aluminum wheels. If

unavoidable, use a wire type chain.

• Use wire chains less than 0.59 in. (15

mm) thick to prevent damage to the

chain’s connection.

Winter Precautions

Use high quality ethylene glycol coolant

Your vehicle is delivered with high quality

ethylene glycol coolant in the cooling

system. It is the only type of coolant that

should be used because it helps prevent

corrosion in the cooling system,

lubricates the water pump and prevents

freezing. Be sure to replace or replenish

your coolant in accordance with the

maintenance schedule in chapter 9.

Before winter, have your coolant tested to

assure that its freezing point is sufficient

for the temperatures anticipated during

the winter.

Check battery and cables

Winter temperatures affect battery

performance. Inspect the battery and

cables, as specified in chapter 9. The

battery charging level can be checked by

an authorized HYUNDAI dealer or in a

service station.

Change to “winter weight” oil if

necessary

In some regions during winter, it is

recommended to use the “winter weight”

oil with lower viscosity In addition,

replace the engine oil and filter if it is

close to the next maintenance interval.

Fresh engine oil ensures optimum engine

operation during the winter months. For

further information, refer to chapter 2.

When you are not sure about a type of

winter weight oil, consult an authorized

HYUNDAI dealer.

Check spark plugs and ignition system
Inspect the spark plugs, as specified in

chapter 9.

If necessary, replace them.

Also check all ignition wirings and

components for any cracks, wear-out,

and damage.

To prevent locks from freezing

To prevent the locks from being frozen,

spray approved de-icing fluid or glycerin

into key holes. When a lock opening is

already covered with ice, spray approved

de-icing fluid over the ice to remove it.

When an internal part of a lock freezes, try

to thaw it with a heated key. Carefully use

the heated key to avoid an injury.

Use approved window washer

anti-freeze solution in system

To prevent the window washer from

being frozen, add authorized window

washer anti-freeze solution, as specified

on the window washer container.

Window washer anti-freeze solution is

available from an authorized HYUNDAI

dealer, and most vehicle accessory

outlets. Do not use engine coolant or

other types of anti-freeze solution, to

prevent any damage to the vehicle paint.

CarManuals2.com

6-61

Do not let your parking brake freeze

Under some conditions your parking

brake can freeze in the engaged position.

This is most likely to happen when there is

an accumulation of snow or ice around or

near the rear brakes or if the brakes are

wet. When there is the risk that your

parking brake may freeze, temporarily

apply it with the gear in P (Park). Also,

block the rear wheels in advance, so the

vehicle may not roll. Then, release the

parking brake.

Do not let ice and snow accumulate

underneath

Under some conditions, snow and ice can

build up under the fenders and interfere

with the steering. When driving in such

conditions during the severe winter, you

should check underneath the vehicle on a

regular basis, to ensure that the front

wheels and the steering components is

unblocked.

Carry emergency equipment

In accordance with weather conditions,

you should carry appropriate emergency

equipment, while driving. Some of the

items you may want to carry include tire

chains, tow straps or chains, flashlight,

emergency flares, sand, shovel, jumper

cables, window scraper, gloves, ground

cloth, coveralls, blanket, etc.

Do not place objects or materials in the

engine compartment

Putting objects or materials in the engine

compartment may cause an engine

failure or combustion, because they may

block the engine cooling. Such damage

will not be covered by the manufacturer’s

warranty.

Drive your vehicle when water vapor

condenses and accumulates inside the

exhaust pipes

When the vehicle is stopped for a long

time in winter while the engine is running,

water vapor may condense and

accumulate inside the exhaust pipes.

Water in the exhaust pipes may cause

noise, etc., but it is drained driving at

medium to high speed.

Trailer Towing

If you are considering towing with your

vehicle, be sure to take extra precautions

while driving. Only experienced drivers

should consider towing. Plan your trip

accordingly as vehicle speed limits for

vehicles towing trailers may be different.

Always follow posted speed limits for

vehicles towing with trailers.
Remember that trailering is different than

just driving your vehicle by itself.

Trailering means changes in handling,

durability, and fuel economy. Successful,

safe trailering requires correct

equipment, and it has to be used

properly. Damage to your vehicle caused

by improper trailer towing is not covered

by your vehicle manufacturer’s warranty.
This section contains time-tested,

important trailering tips and safety rules.

Many of these are important for your

safety and that of your passengers. Please

read this section carefully before you pull

a trailer.

WARNING

Take the following precautions:
• If you don’t use the correct equipment

and/or drive improperly, you can lose

control of the vehicle when you are

pulling a trailer. For example, if the

trailer is too heavy, the braking

performance may be reduced. You and

your passengers could be seriously or

fatally injured. Pull a trailer only if you

have followed all the steps in this

section.

• Before towing, make sure the total

trailer weight, GCW (Gross

Combination Weight), GVW (Gross

Vehicle Weight), GAW (Gross Axle

Weight) and trailer tongue load are all

within the limits.

• When you tow a trailer, make sure to

turn off the Idle Stop and Go system.

If You 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 trailer hitch dealer about sway

control.

• Do not do any towing with your vehicle

during 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

transmission damage.

• When towing a trailer, consult an

authorized HYUNDAI dealer for further

information on additional requirements

such as a towing kit, etc.

• Always drive your vehicle at posted

towing speed limit.

• Carefully observe the weight and load

limits provided in the following pages.

• When towing a trailer, be sure to

disable Reverse Parking

Collision-Avoidance Assist. If towing

and going in reverse the system will

activate as it detects the trailer. Also,

before towing a trailer disable all

Driving Assistance systems as

precaution such as Forward

Collision-Avoidance Assist, Lane

Keeping Assist, Smart Cruise Control

and others.

Tongue Load / Total Trailer Weight

OOSH069129L

What is the maximum safe weight of a

trailer? It should never weigh more than

the maximum trailer weight with trailer

brakes. But even that can be too heavy. It

depends on how you plan to use your

trailer. For example, speed, altitude, road

grades, outside temperature and how

often your vehicle is used to pull a trailer

are all important. The ideal trailer weight

can also depend on any special

equipment that you have on your vehicle.

Tongue load

Gross Axle Weight / Gross Vehicle Weight

OOSH069130L

The tongue load is an important weight to

measure because it affects the total Gross

Vehicle Weight (GVW) of your vehicle.

The trailer tongue should weigh a

minimum of 10% of the total loaded trailer

weight, within the limits of the maximum

(15%) trailer tongue load permissible.
After you’ve loaded your trailer, weigh the

trailer and then the tongue, separately, to

see if the weights are proper. If they

aren’t, you may be able to correct them

simply by moving some items around in

the trailer.

WARNING

Take the following precautions:
• Never load a trailer with more weight in

the rear than in the front. The front

should be loaded with approximately

60% of the total trailer load; the rear

should be loaded with approximately

40% of the total trailer load.

• Never exceed the maximum weight

limits of the trailer or trailer towing

equipment. Improper loading can

result in damage to your vehicle and/or

personal injury. Check weights and

loading at a commercial scale or

highway patrol office equipped with

scales.

Trailer Towing Equipment

Hitches

B1004KO01

It’s important to have the correct hitch

equipment. Crosswinds, large trucks

going by, and rough roads are a few

reasons why you’ll need the right hitch.

Here are some rules to follow:
• Do you have to make any holes in the

body of your vehicle when you install a

trailer hitch? If you do, then be sure to

seal the holes later when you remove

the hitch. If you don’t seal them, carbon

monoxide (CO) from your exhaust can

get into your vehicle, as well as dirt and

water.

• The bumpers on your vehicle are not

intended for hitches. Do not attach

rental hitches or other bumper-type

hitches to them. Use only a

frame-mounted hitch that does not

attach to the bumper.

• A HYUNDAI trailer hitch accessory is

available at an authorized HYUNDAI

dealer.

Safety chains

You should always attach chains between

your vehicle and your trailer.
Instructions about safety chains may be

provided by the hitch manufacturer or

trailer manufacturer. Follow the

manufacturer’s recommendation for

attaching safety chains. Always leave just

enough slack so you can turn with your

trailer. And, never allow safety chains to

drag on the ground.

Trailer brakes

If your trailer is equipped with a braking

system, make sure it conforms to your

state’s regulations and that it is properly

installed and operating correctly.
If your trailer weighs more than the

Driving with a Trailer

Towing a trailer requires a certain amount

of experience. Before setting out for the

open road, you must get to know your

trailer. Acquaint yourself with the feel of

handling and braking with the added

weight of the trailer. And always keep in

mind that the vehicle you are driving is

now longer and not nearly as responsive

as your vehicle is by itself.
Before you start, check the trailer hitch

and platform, safety chains, electrical

connector(s), lights, tires and brakes.
During your trip, occasionally check to be

sure that the load is secure, and that the

lights and trailer brakes are still working.

Distance

Stay at least twice as far behind the

vehicle ahead as you would when driving

your vehicle without a trailer. This can

help you avoid situations that require

heavy braking and sudden turns.

Passing

You will need more passing distance up

ahead when you’re towing a trailer. And,

because of the increased vehicle length,

you’ll need to go much farther beyond the

passed vehicle before you can return to

your lane.

Backing up

Hold the bottom of the steering wheel

with one hand. Then, to move the trailer

to the left, move your hand to the left. To

move the trailer to the right, move your

hand to the right. Always back up slowly

and, if possible, have someone guide you.

Making turns

When you’re turning with a trailer, make

wider turns than normal. Do this so your

trailer won’t strike soft shoulders, curbs,

road signs, trees, or other objects. Avoid

jerky or sudden maneuvers. Signal well in

advance.

Turn signals

When you tow a trailer, your vehicle has

to have a different turn signal flasher and

extra wiring. The green arrows on your

instrument panel will flash whenever you

signal a turn or lane change. Properly

connected, the trailer lights will also flash

to alert other drivers you’re about to turn,

change lanes, or stop.
When towing a trailer, the green arrows

on your instrument panel will flash for

turns even if the bulbs on the trailer are

burned out. Thus, you may think drivers

behind you are seeing your signals when,

in fact, they are not. It’s important to

check frequently to be sure the trailer

bulbs are still working. You must also

check the lights every time you

disconnect and then reconnect the wires.

WARNING

Do not connect a trailer lighting system

directly to your vehicle’s lighting system.

Use an approved trailer wiring harness.

Failure to do so could result in damage to

the vehicle electrical system and/or

personal injury. Consult an authorized

HYUNDAI dealer for assistance.

Driving on hills

Reduce speed and shift to a lower gear

before you start down a long or steep

downgrade. If you don’t shift to a lower

gear, you may have to use your brakes

excessively and they would overheat and

may not operate efficiently.
On a long uphill grade, shift to a lower

gear and reduce your speed to around 45

mph (70 km/h) to reduce the possibility of

engine and transmission overheating.
If your trailer weighs more than the

maximum trailer weight without trailer

brakes and you have an automatic

transmission, you should drive in D

(Drive) when towing a trailer.
Operating your vehicle in D (Drive) when

towing a trailer will minimize heat

build-up and extend the life of your

transmission.

NOTICE

To prevent engine and/or transmission

overheating:
• When towing a trailer on steep grades

(in excess of 6%) pay close attention to

the engine coolant temperature gauge

to ensure the engine does not overheat.

If the needle of the coolant

temperature gauge moves towards “H”

(HOT), pull over and stop as soon as it is

safe to do so, and allow the engine to

idle until it cools down. You may

proceed once the engine has cooled

sufficiently.

• When towing a trailer, your vehicle

speed may be much slower than the

general flow of traffic, especially when

climbing an uphill grade. Use the right

hand lane when towing a trailer on an

uphill grade. Choose your vehicle

speed according to the maximum

posted speed limit for vehicles with

trailers, the steepness of the grade, and

your trailer weight.

Parking on hills

Generally, if you have a trailer attached to

your vehicle, you should not park your

vehicle on a hill.
However, if you ever have to park your

trailer on a hill, here’s how to do it:
1. Pull the vehicle into the parking space.

Turn the steering wheel in the direction

of the curb (right if headed down hill,

left if headed up hill).

2. Shift the gear to P (Park).
3. Set the parking brake and shut off the

vehicle.

4. Place wheel chocks under the trailer

wheels on the down hill side of the

wheels.

5. Start the vehicle, hold the brakes, shift

to neutral, release the parking brake

and slowly release the brakes until the

trailer chocks absorb the load.

6. Reapply the brakes and parking brakes.
7. Shift the gear to P (Park) when the

vehicle is parked on a uphill grade and

in R (Reverse) on a downhill.

8. Shut off the vehicle and release the

vehicle brakes but leave the parking

brake set.

WARNING

To prevent serious or fatal injury:
• Do not get out of the vehicle without

the parking brake firmly set. If you have

left the engine running, the vehicle can

move suddenly. You and others could

be seriously or fatally injured.

• Do not apply the accelerator pedal to

hold the vehicle on an uphill.

CarManuals2.com

6-67

Driving the vehicle after it has been

parked on a hill

1. With the gear in P (Park), apply your

brakes and hold the brake pedal down

while you:
• Start your engine;
• Shift into gear; and
• Release the parking brake.

2. Slowly remove your foot from the brake

pedal.

3. Drive slowly until the trailer is clear of

the chocks.

4. Stop and have someone pick up and

store the chocks.

Maintenance When Towing a

Trailer

Your vehicle will need service more often

when you regularly pull a trailer.

Important items to pay particular

attention to include engine oil,

transmission fluid, axle lubricant and

cooling system fluid. Brake condition is

another important item to frequently

check. If you’re trailering, it’s a good idea

to review these items before you start

your trip. Don’t forget to also maintain

your trailer and hitch. Follow the

maintenance schedule that accompanied

your trailer and check it periodically.

Preferably, conduct the check at the start

of each day’s driving. Most importantly,

all hitch nuts and bolts should be tight.

NOTICE

To prevent vehicle damage:
• Due to higher load during trailer usage,

overheating might occur on hot days or

during uphill driving. If the coolant

gauge indicates over-heating, switch

off the air conditioner and stop the

vehicle in a safe area to cool down the

engine.

• Do not switch off the engine while the

coolant gauge indicates over-heating.
(Keep the engine idle to cool down the

engine)

• When towing check transmission fluid

more frequently.

Vehicle Load Limit

Two labels on your driver’s door sill

show how much weight your vehicle

was designed to carry: the Tire and

Loading Information Label and the

Certification Label.
Before loading your vehicle,

familiarize yourself with the following

terms for determining your vehicle’s

weight ratings, from the vehicle’s

specifications and the Certification

Label:

Base curb weight

This is the weight of the vehicle

including a full tank of fuel and all

standard equipment. It does not

include passengers, cargo, or

optional equipment.

Vehicle curb weight

This is the weight of your new vehicle

when you picked it up from your

dealer plus any aftermarket

equipment.

Cargo weight

This figure includes all weight added

to the Base Curb Weight, including

cargo and optional equipment.

GAW (Gross Axle Weight)

This is the total weight placed on

each axle (front and rear) - including

vehicle curb weight and all payload.

GAWR (Gross Axle Weight Rating)

This is the maximum allowable

weight that can be carried by a single

axle (front or rear). These numbers

are shown on the Certification Label.

The total load on each axle must

never exceed its GAWR.

GVW (Gross Vehicle Weight)

This is the Base Curb Weight plus

actual Cargo Weight plus passengers.

GVWR (Gross Vehicle Weight Rating)

This is the maximum allowable

weight of the fully loaded vehicle

(including all options, equipment,

passengers and cargo). The GVWR is

shown on the Certification Label

located on the driver’s door sill.

The Loading Information

Label

B1006EU01

B1006EU02

B1006EU03

B1006EU04

The label located on the driver’s door

sill gives the original tire size, cold tire

pressures recommended for your

vehicle, the number of people that

can be in your vehicle and vehicle

capacity weight.

Vehicle capacity weight

1. 7 persons: 1,173 lbs. (532 kg)
2. 8 persons: 1,323 lbs. (600 kg)
Vehicle capacity weight is the

maximum combined weight of

occupants and cargo. If your vehicle

is equipped with a trailer, the

combined weight includes the

tongue load.

Seating capacity

1. Total: 7 persons (Front seat: 2

persons, Rear seat: 5 persons)

2.Total: 8 persons (Front seat: 2

persons, Rear seat: 6 persons)

Seating capacity is the maximum

number of occupants including a

driver, your vehicle may carry.

However, the seating capacity may

be reduced based upon the weight of

all of the occupants, and the weight

of the cargo being carried or towed.

Do not overload the vehicle as there

is a limit to the total weight, or load

limit including occupants and cargo,

the vehicle can carry.

CarManuals2.com

Driving Your Vehicle

6-70

Towing capacity

With trailer brakes: 5,000 Ibs. (2,268

kg)
Without trailer brakes: 1,653 Ibs. (750

kg)
Towing capacity is the maximum

trailer weight including its cargo

weight, your vehicle can tow.

Cargo capacity

The cargo capacity of your vehicle

will increase or decrease depending

on the weight and the number of

occupants and the tongue load, if

your vehicle is equipped with a trailer.

Steps for determining correct load

limit

1. Locate the statement “The

combined weight of occupants and

cargo should never exceed XXX lbs.

or XXX kg.” on your vehicle's

placard.

2.Determine the combined weight of

the driver and passengers that will

be riding in your vehicle.

3.Subtract the combined weight of

the driver and passengers from XXX

lbs. or XXX kg.

4.The resulting figure equals the

available amount of cargo and

luggage load capacity. For

example, if the "XXX" amount

equals 1,400 lbs. (635 kg) and there

will be five 150 lbs. (68 kg)

passengers in your vehicle, the

amount of available cargo and

luggage load capacity is 650 lbs.

(295 kg).
(1,400 - 750 (5 x 150) = 650 lbs. or

635 – 340 (5 x 68) = 295 kg)

5.Determine the combined weight of

luggage and cargo being loaded on

the vehicle. That weight may not

safely exceed the available cargo

and luggage load capacity

calculated in Step 4.

6.If your vehicle will be towing a

trailer, load from your trailer will be

transferred to your vehicle. Consult

this manual to determine how this

reduces the available cargo and

luggage load capacity of your

vehicle.

WARNING

Do not overload the vehicle as there is a limit to the total weight, or load limit,

including occupants and cargo, the vehicle can carry. Overloading can shorten

the life of the vehicle. If the GVWR or the GAWR is exceeded, parts on the vehicle

can break, and it can change the handling of your vehicle. These could cause

you to lose control and result in an accident.

Certification label

Table_OBH059070

The certification label is located on

the driver's door sill at the center

pillar and shows the maximum

allowable weight of the fully loaded

vehicle. This is called the GVWR

(Gross Vehicle Weight Rating). The

GVWR includes the weight of the

vehicle, all occupants, fuel and cargo.
This label also tells you the maximum

weight that can be supported by the

front and rear axles, called Gross Axle

Weight Rating (GAWR).
The total weight of the vehicle,

including all occupants, accessories,

cargo, and trailer tongue load must

not exceed the Gross Vehicle Weight

Rating (GVWR) or the Gross Axle

Weight Rating (GAWR). To find out

the actual loads on your front and

rear axles, you need to go to a weigh

station and weigh your vehicle. Be

sure to spread out your load equally

on both sides of the centerline.

WARNING

Overloading
• Never exceed the GVWR for your

vehicle, the GAWR for either the

front or rear axle and vehicle

capacity weight. Exceeding these

ratings can affect your vehicle's

handling and braking ability, and

cause an accident.

• Do not overload your vehicle.

Overloading your vehicle can cause

heat buildup in your vehicle's tires

and possible tire failure, increased

stopping distances and poor

vehicle handling-all of which may

result in a crash.

NOTICE

Overloading your vehicle may cause

damage. Repairs would not be

covered by your warranty. Do not

overload your vehicle.

WARNING

If you carry items inside your vehicle

(for example, suitcases, tools,

packages, or anything else), they are

moving as fast as the vehicle. If you

have to stop or turn quickly, or if there

is a crash, the items will keep going

and can cause an injury if they strike

the driver or a passenger.
• Put items in the cargo area of your

vehicle. Try to spread the weight

evenly.

• Do not stack items, like suitcases,

inside the vehicle above the tops of

the seats.

• Do not leave an unsecured child

restraint in your vehicle.

• When you carry something inside

the vehicle, secure it.
