These pressures were chosen to provide the
most satisfactory combination of ride comfort,
tire wear and stability under normal conditions.
Tire pressures should be checked at least
monthly. Proper tire inflation pressures should
be maintained for these reasons:

SNOW TIRES SNOW TIRESSNOW TIRES SNOW TIRES
SNOW TIRESIf you equip your car with snow tires, they
should be the same size and have the same
load capacity as the original tires. Snow tires
should be installed on all four wheels; other-
wise, poor handling may result.
Snow tires should carry 4 psi (28 kPa) more air
pressure than the pressure recommended for
the standard tires on the tire label on the driver
side center pillar outer panel, or up to the
maximum pressure shown on the tire sidewall
whichever is less.
Do not drive faster than 75 mph (120 km/h)
when your car is equipped with snow tires.
I050A01S-AAT
TIRE CHAINS TIRE CHAINSTIRE CHAINS TIRE CHAINS
TIRE CHAINSTire chains, if necessary, should be installed on
the front wheels. Be sure that the chains are the
proper size and that they are installed in accor-
dance with the manufacturer's instructions.
To minimize tire and chain wear, do not con-
tinue to use tire chains when they are no longer
needed.

TIRE ROTATION TIRE ROTATIONTIRE ROTATION TIRE ROTATION
TIRE ROTATION
Tires should be rotated every 7,500 miles
(12,000 km). If you notice that tires are wearing
unevenly between rotations, have the car
checked by a Hyundai dealer so the cause may
be corrected.
SSA8050A
After rotating, adjust the tire pressures and be
sure to check the wheel nut torque.

TIRE BALANCING TIRE BALANCINGTIRE BALANCING TIRE BALANCING
TIRE BALANCINGA tire that is out of balance may affect handling
and tire wear. The tires on your Hyundai were
balanced before the car was delivered but may
need balancing again during the years you own
the car.
Whenever a tire is dismounted for repair, it
should be rebalanced before being reinstalled
on the car.
I080A01A-AAT
TIRE TRACTION TIRE TRACTIONTIRE TRACTION TIRE TRACTION
TIRE TRACTIONTire traction can be reduced if you drive on
worn tires, tires that are improperly inflated or
on slippery road surfaces. Tires should be re-
placed when tread wear indicators appear. To
reduce the possibility of losing control, slow
down whenever there is rain, snow or ice on the
road.
