Hyundai Tucson Plug-in Hybrid (2024 year). Manual in english

Driving Your Vehicle

6-56

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.

6-57

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 many 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.

TRAILER TOWING

Driving Your Vehicle

6-58

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 a

moderate speed (less than 60 mph

(100 km/h)) or posted towing speed

limit.

On a long uphill grade, do not exceed

45 mph (70 km/h) or the posted

towing speed limit, whichever is

lower.

Carefully observe the weight and load

limits provided in the following pages.

Trailer weight

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.

6-59

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 maximum of 10% of the total

loaded trailer weight, within the limits

of the maximum 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.

Information

With increasing altitude the engine
performance decreases. From 3,280 feet
above sea level and for every 3,280 feet
thereafter 10% of vehicle/trailer weight
(trailer weighter + gross vehicle weight)
must be deducted.

6-61

Trailer Towing Equipment

Hitches

ONX4E060024

Information

The mounting hole for hitches are located
on both sides of the underbody behind the
rear tires.

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.

Any part of the rear number plate or

lighting devices of the vehicle must

not be obscured by the mechanical

coupling device.
If the rear number plate and/or

lighting devices can be obscured

partially by any part of the mechanical

coupling device, mechanical coupling

devices that can not be easily

removed or repositioned without use

of any tools, except an easily operated

(for example, an effort not exceeding

20Nm) release key which is supplied

by the manufacturer of the coupling

device, are not permitted for use.
Please note that the mechanical

coupling device that is fitted and

not in use must always be removed

or repositioned if the rear number

plate and/or rear lighting devices

are obscured by any part of the

mechanical coupling device.

A HYUNDAI trailer hitch accessory is

available at an authorized HYUNDAI

dealer.

Driving Your Vehicle

6-62

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 country’s regulations and that

it is properly installed and operating

correctly.
If your trailer weighs more than the

maximum trailer weight without trailer

brakes loaded, then it needs its own

brakes and they must be adequate. Be

sure to read and follow the instructions

for the trailer brakes so you’ll be able

to install, adjust and maintain them

properly. Be sure not to modify your

vehicle’s brake system.

WARNING

Do not use a trailer with its own brakes

unless you are absolutely certain that

you have properly set up the brake

system. This is not a task for amateurs.

Use an experienced, competent trailer

shop for this work.

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.

6-63

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 occasionally 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 down, you

might have to use your brakes so much

that they would get overheated and may

not operate efficiently.
On a long uphill grade, shift down 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 a 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.

Driving Your Vehicle

6-64

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.

If you tow a trailer with the maximum

gross vehicle weight and maximum

trailer weight, it can cause the

engine or transmission to overheat.

When driving in such conditions,

allow the engine to idle until it cools

down. You may proceed once the

engine or transmission 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.

6-65

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.

If your vehicle is not equipped with

an air conditioner, you should install

a condenser fan to improve engine

performance when towing a trailer.

Driving Your Vehicle

6-66

VEHICLE WEIGHT

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.

6-67

The Loading Information Label

17 inch

ONX4PH062001N

19 inch

ONX4PH062002N

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

5 persons : 926 lbs. (420 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

Total : 5 persons (Front seat : 2

persons, Rear seat : 3 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.

Towing capacity

With brake system: 2,000 lbs.

(907 kg)
Without brake system: 1,653 lbs.

(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.

Driving Your Vehicle

6-68

Steps for determining correct load

limit

1. Locate the statement "The

combined weight of occupants

and cargo should never exceed

XXX kg or XXX lbs." 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 kg or XXX lbs.

4. The resulting figure equals

the available amount of cargo

and luggage load capacity. For

example, if the "XXX" amount

equals 1400 lbs. and there will

be five 150 lb passengers in your

vehicle, the amount of available

cargo and luggage load capacity

is 650 lbs. (1400 - 750 (5 x 150) =

650 lbs.)

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 be break, and it

can change the handling of your

vehicle. These could cause you

to lose control and result in an

accident.

Certification label

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.
