If you have a flat tire while
driving
If a tire goes flat while you are driv-
ing:
1. Take your foot off the accelerator
pedal and let the vehicle slow
down while driving straight ahead.
Do not apply the brakes immedi-
ately or attempt to pull off the road
as this may cause a loss of con-
trol. When the vehicle has slowed
to such a speed that it is safe to do
so, brake carefully and pull off the
road. Drive off the road as far as
possible and park on firm, level
ground. If you are on a divided
highway, do not park in the medi-
an area between the two traffic
lanes.
2. When the vehicle is stopped, turn
on your emergency hazard flash-
ers, set the parking brake and
move the shift lever to the P(Park)
position.
3. Have all passengers get out of the
vehicle. Be sure they all get out on
the side of the vehicle that is away
from traffic.
If the vehicle stalls while driv-
ing
1. Reduce your speed gradually,
keeping a straight line. Move cau-
tiously off the road to a safe place.
2. Turn on your emergency flashers.
3. Try to start the vehicle again. If
your vehicle will not start, contact
an authorized HYUNDAI Tucson
Fuel Cell dealer.
1. Check if the shift lever is in the
N(Neutral) or P(Park) position.
2. Check the intensity of the luggage
room lamp. If the light is weak, it is
need to recharge the battery. If
necessary, try to jump start the
vehicle referring to "Emergency
starting" in this chapter.
3. If the vehicle will not start after fol-
lowing above steps, call an
authorized HYUNDAI Tucson Fuel
Cell dealer.
Do not push or pull the vehicle to
start it.
