Hyundai Tucson: All Wheel Drive (AWD) / Emergency Precautions

Tires

Do not use tires or wheels with different size and type from the one installed on your vehicle. It may affect the safety and performance of your vehicle, which could cause steering failure or rollover causing serious injury.

When replacing the tires, be sure to equip all four tires with the the same size, type, tread, brand, and loadcarrying capacity. If you equip your vehicle with any tire/wheel combination not recommended by HYUNDAI for offroad driving, do not use these tires for highway driving.

WARNING

Never start or run the engine while a full-time AWD vehicle is raised on a jack. The vehicle may slip or roll off of a jack causing serious injury or death.

Towing

AWD vehicles must be towed with all the wheels off the ground. For more information, refer to the "Towing" section in Chapter 8.
