Hitches
OOS060019L OOS060019L
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 (i.e. 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.
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.
