I070A01A-AAT 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 reinstalledon the car.
I100A01HP-AAT SPARE TIRE AND TOOLS Your Hyundai is delivered with the following: Spare tire and wheel WrenchJackJack handle (Spare Wheel Rod)
I080A01A-AAT 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. I090A01Y-GAT
WHEN TO REPLACE TIRES
The original tires on your car have tread wearindicators. The tread wear indicators appear when the tread depth is 1.6 mm (0.06 in.). The tire should be replaced when these appear as asolid bar across two or more grooves of the tread. Always replace your tires with those of the recommended size. If you change wheels, the new wheel's rim width and offset must meet Hyundai specifications. WARNING:
o Driving on worn-out tires is dangerous! Worn-out tires can cause loss of braking effectiveness, steering control and trac- tion. When replacing tires, never mix ra- dial and bias-ply tires on the same car. If
you replace radial tires with bias-ply tires, they must be installed in sets of four.

DRIVING YOUR HYUNDAI 2- 19
CAUTION: If overheating should occur when towing,
(temperature gauge reads near red zone), taking the following action may reduce oreliminate the problem.
1. Turn off the air conditioner.
2. Reduce highway speed.
3. Select a lower gear when going uphill.
4. Whilst in stop and go traffic, place the gear selector in park or neutral and idle the engine at a higher speed.
HPC200E1-E
Trailer or Vehicle Towing Tips
1. Before towing, check towbar and safety cable connections as well as proper operation of the trailer running lights, brake lights, andturn signals.
2. Always drive your vehicle at a moderate speed (Less than 60 mph)
3. Trailer towing requires more fuel than nor- mal conditions.
4. To maintain engine braking efficiency and electrical charging performance, do not usefifth gear (manual transmission).
5. Always secure items in the trailer to prevent load shift whilst driving.
6. Check the condition and air pressure of all tyres on the trailer and your car. Low tyrepressure can seriously affect the handling.Also check the spare tyre.
7. The vehicle/trailer combination is more af- fected by crosswind and buffeting. When being passed by a large vehicle, keep a constant speed and steer straight ahead.If there is too much wind buffeting slowdown to get out of the other vehicle's airturbulence.
8. When parking your car and trailer, especial- ly on a hill, be sure to follow all the normalprecautions. Turn your front wheel into thecurb, set the parking brake firmly, and putthe transmission in 1st or Reverse (manual)or Park (automatic). In addition, place wheelchocks at each of the trailer's tyres. 9. If the trailer has electric brakes, start your
vehicle and trailer moving, and then applythe trailer brake controller by hand to besure the brakes are working. This lets youcheck your electrical connection at the sametime.
10. During your trip, check occasionally to be sure that the load is secure, and that thelights and any trailer brakes are still working.
11. Avoid jerky starts, sudden acceleration or sudden stops.
12. Avoid sharp turns and rapid lane changes.
13. Avoid holding the brake pedal down too long or too frequently. This could cause the brakes to overheat, resulting in reduced brakingefficiency.
14. When going down a hill, shift into a lower gear and use the engine braking effect. When ascending a long grade, downshift the transmission to a lower gear and reducespeed to reduce chances of engine over-loading and/or overheating.
15. If you have to stop whilst going uphill, do not hold the vehicle in place by pressing on theaccelerator. This can cause the automatictransmission to overheat. Use the parkingbrake or footbrake.
NOTE: When towing, check transmission fluid more
frequently.
IN CASE OF EMERGENCY 3-3
WARNING: Whilst the engine is running, keep hands
and clothing away from moving parts such as the fan and drive belts to prevent injury.
WARNING (Diesel only): Never work on injection system with engine
running or within 30 seconds after shutting off engine. High pressure pump, rail, injec-tors and high pressure pipes are subject tohigh pressure even after the engine stopped.The fuel jet produced by fuel leaks maycause serious injury, if it touch the body.People using pacemakers should not movethan 30cm closer to the ECU or wiring har-ness within the engine room while engine isrunning, since the high currents in the Com-mon Rail system produce considerable mag-netic fields.
5. If the water pump drive belt is broken or coolant is leaking out, stop the engine imme- diately and call the nearest Hyundai dealerfor assistance.
WARNING: Do not remove the radiator cap when the
engine is hot since steam and boiling water may be ejected from the radiator resulting inburns or scalding. YD050A1-E
SPARE TYRE For Full Size
The following instructions for the FULL SIZE
spare tyre should be observed:
Check inflation pressure as soon as possible
after installing the spare tyre, and adjust to the specified pressure. The tyre pressure shouldbe periodically checked and maintained at thespecified pressure whilst the tyre is stored.

Tyre Size
FULL SIZE 29 psi (200 kPa)
6. If the cause of the overheating cannot be
found, wait until the engine temperature has returned to normal. Then, if coolant hasbeen lost, carefully remove the radiator capand add water to bring the fluid level in thereservoir up to the base of the radiator fillopening. Fill the coolant expansion tank tothe halfway mark.
7. Proceed with caution until it is established that the engine is operating normally. If theengine overheats repeatedly, the advice of aHyundai dealer should be sought.
CAUTION: Serious loss of coolant indicates there is a
leak in the cooling system and this should be checked as soon as possible by a Hyundaidealer.

IN THE EVENT OF A PUNCTURE
If a puncture occurs whilst driving the vehicle:
1. Bring the car to rest as soon as it is safe to do so and with the minimum amount of braking required which will assist in main-taining the maximum amount of control. Thevehicle should be parked wherever possibleupon firm level ground to facilitate wheelchanging.
2. If the vehicle is creating a hazard and the road conditions do not permit the wheel tobe changed safely, assistance should besought.
3. Passengers must not be allowed to remain inside the vehicle during wheel changing. Ifa puncture occurs whilst the vehicle is on amotorway, the passengers should take ref-uge on the motorway embankment to avoidthe possibility of injury occurring should thevehicle be struck by other motorway traffic.
4. Wheel changing should be performed ac- cording to the following instructions. HPD070A1-E
CHANGING A FLAT TYRE
It is of the utmost importance that care isexercised when changing road wheels. Ensurethat the parking brake is set and that the gearshift lever is in reverse (P, if the vehicle hasautomatic transmission).
D060A01HP
5. Remove the lift plate from the centre of the spare tyre after the spare tyre is lowered completely.
Installation is the reverse order of removal.
CAUTION: When installing, turn the wheel nut wrench
clockwise till you hear the crackle once or
twice(Tightening torque : 3.87 kg m). Andmake sure the spare tyre is secured in theproper location.
2. Insert the spare wheel rod into the hole in the upper pad of the rear bumper.
3. Connect the wheel nut wrench to the spare wheel rod.
4. Turn the wheel nut wrench counterclock- wise and the spare tyre will lower.
