WARNING:
o Driving on worn-out tires is dan-
gerous! Worn-out tires can cause
loss of braking effectiveness,
steering control and traction. When
replacing tires, never mix radial
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.
o Using tires and wheels of other
than the recommended sizes could
cause unusual handling charac-
teristics that could cause death,
serious injury, or property dam-
age.
o Wheels that do not meet Hyundai's
dimensional specifications may
fit poorly and result in damage to
the vehicle, including broken
wheel studs.
HNF5015 I090A02A-AAT
WHEN TO REPLACE TIRES
The original tires on your car have tread
wear indicators. The location of tread
wear indicators is shown by the "TWI"
or " " marks, etc. The tread wear
indicators appear when the tread depth
is 0.06 in. (1.6 mm). The tire should be
replaced when these appear as a solid
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
specification.
Tread wear
indicator 0.06 in. (1.6 mm)
I080A01A-AATTIRE TRACTION
Tire traction can be reduced if you drive
on worn tires, tires that are improperly
inflated or on slippery road surfaces.
Tires should be replaced when tread
wear indicators appear. To reduce the
possibility of losing control, slow down
whenever there is rain, snow or ice on
the road.
