2003 Hyundai Santa Fe Owner's Manual

8- 6 CONSUMER INFORMATION & REPORTING SAFETY DEFECTS
!
I130D02A-AATHyundai motor vehicles are designed and manu-
factured to meet or exceed all applicable safety
standards.
For your safety, however, we strongly urge you
to read and follow all directions in this Owner's
Manual, particularly the information under the
headings "NOTE", "CAUTION" and "WARN-
ING".
If, after reading this manual, you have any
questions regarding the operation of your ve-
hicle, please contact your nearest Hyundai
Motor America Regional Office as listed below: Traction AA, A, B, C - The traction grades,
from highest to lowest, are AA, A, B, and C.
Those grades represent the tire's ability to stop
on wet pavement as measured under controlled
conditions on specified government test sur-
faces of asphalt and concrete. A tire marked C
may have poor traction performance.
WARNING:The traction grade assigned to this tire is
based on straight-ahead braking traction
tests, and does not include acceleration,
cornering, hydroplaning, or peak traction
characteristics.
Temperature A, B, C - The temperature grades
are A (the highest), B, and C, representing the
tire's resistance to the generation of heat and
its ability to dissipate heat when tested under
controlled conditions on a specified indoor labo-
ratory test wheel. Sustained high temperature
can cause the material of the tire to degenerate
and reduce tire life, and excessive temperature
can lead to sudden tire failure. The grade C
corresponds to a level of performance which all
passenger car tires must meet under the Fed-
eral Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 109.
Grades B and A represent higher levels of
performance on the laboratory test wheel than
the minimum required by law.
WARNING:The temperature grade for this tire is estab-
lished for a tire that is properly inflated and
not overloaded. Excessive speed,
underinflation, or excessive loading, either
separately or in combination, can cause
heat buildup and possible tire failure.
Uniform Tire Quality Grading - Quality grades
can be found on the tire sidewall between the
tread shoulder and the maximum section width.
For example :
Treadwear 200 Traction AA Temperature A
I130A01A-AATCONSUMER INFORMATION
This consumer information has been prepared
in accordance with regulations issued by the
National Highway Traffic Safety Administration
of the U.S. Department of Transportation. It
provides the purchasers and/or prospective
purchasers of Hyundai automobiles with infor-
mation on uniform tire quality grading. Your
Hyundai dealer will help answer any questions
you may have as you read this information.
I130B03A-AAT
Tire Quality Grading
Department of Transportation quality grades -
All passenger vehicle tires must conform to
Federal Safety Standards in addition to these
grades. These quality grades are molded on the
sidewall.
Treadwear - The treadwear grade is a com-
parative rating based on the wear rate of the tire
when tested under controlled conditions on a
specified government test course. For example,
a tire graded 150 would wear one and a half (1
- 1/2) times as well on the government course
as a tire graded 100. The relative performance
of tires depends upon the actual conditions of
their use, however, and may depart significantly
from the norm due to variations in driving habits,
service practices and differences in road char-
acteristics and climate.

I130C01A-AATREPORTING SAFETY DEFECTS
If you believe that your vehicle has a defect
which could cause a crash or could cause
injury or death, you should immediately
inform the National Highway Traffic Safety
Administration (NHTSA) in addition to
notifying HYUNDAI MOTOR AMERICA. If
NHTSA receives similar complaints, it may
open an investigation, and if it finds that a
safety defect exists in a group of vehicles,
it may order a recall and remedy cam-
paign. However, NHTSA cannot become
involved in individual problems between
you, your dealer, or HYUNDAI MOTOR
AMERICA.
To contact NHTSA, you may either call the
Auto Safety Hotline toll-free at 1-888-327-
4236 or write to: NHTSA, U.S. Department
of Transportation, Washington. D.C. 20590.
You can also obtain other information about
motor vehicle safety from the Hotline.
