D060D01A-AAT3. Loosen Wheel Nuts
The wheel nuts should be loosened
slightly before raising the car. To loosen
the nuts, turn the wrench handle coun-
terclockwise. When doing this, be sure
that the socket is seated completely
over the nut so it cannot slip off. For
maximum leverage, position the wrench
so the handle is to the right as shown in
the drawing. Then, while holding the
wrench near the end of the handle, pull
up on it with steady pressure. Do not
remove the nuts at this time. Just
loosen them about one-half turn.

WARNING:
Do not get under the car when it is
supported by the jack! This is very
dangerous as the vehicle could fall
and cause serious injury or death.
No one should stay in the car while
the jack is being used.
D060E01A-AAT4. Put the Jack in Place
The base of the jack should be placed
on firm, level ground. The jack should
be positioned as shown in the drawing.

D060F02E-AAT5. Raising the Car
After inserting a wrench bar into the
wheel nut wrench, install the wrench bar
into the jack as shown in the drawing.
To raise the vehicle, turn the wheel nut
wrench clockwise. As the jack begins
to raise the vehicle, double check that
it is properly positioned and will not slip.
If the jack is on soft ground or sand,
place a board, brick, flat stone or other
object under the base of the jack to
keep it from sinking.

Raise the car high enough so that the
fully inflated spare tire can be installed.
To do this, you will need more ground
clearance than is required to remove
the flat tire.

D060G02Y-AAT6. Changing Wheels
Loosen the wheel nuts and remove
them with your fingers. Slide the wheel
off the studs and lay it flat so it cannot
roll away. To put the spare wheel on the
hub, pick up the spare tire, line up the
holes with the studs and slide the wheel
onto them. If this is difficult, tip the
wheel slightly and get the top hole in the
wheel lined up with the top stud. Then
jiggle the wheel back and forth until the
wheel can be slid over the other studs.WARNING:
Wheels and wheel covers may have
sharp edges. Handle them carefully
to avoid possible severe injury.
Before putting the wheel into place,
be sure that there is nothing on the
hub or wheel (such as mud, tar,
gravel, etc.) that interferes with the
wheel fitting solidly against the hub.
If there is, remove it. If there is not
good contact on the mounting sur-

face between the wheel and hub, the
wheel nuts could loosen and cause
the loss of a wheel. Loss of a wheel
may result in loss of control of the
vehicle. This may cause serious in-
jury or death.WARNING:

IF YOUR CAR MUST BE TOWED
D060J01E-GATAfter Changing Wheels
If you have a tire gauge, remove the
valve cap and check the air pressure. If
the pressure is lower than recom-
mended, drive slowly to the nearest
service station and inflate to the correct
pressure. If it is too high, adjust it until
it is correct. Always reinstall the valve
cap after checking or adjusting tire
pressure. If the cap is not replaced, air
may leak from the tire. If you lose a
valve cap, buy another and install it as
soon as possible.

CAUTION:
Your car can be damaged if towed incor-
rectly!
If your car has to be towed, it should be done by
your Hyundai dealer or a commercial tow truck
service. This will help assure that your car is not
damaged in towing. Also, professionals are
generally aware of state and local laws govern-
ing towing. In any case, rather than risk damage
to your car, it is suggested that you show this
information to the tow truck operator. Be sure
that a safety chain system is used and that all
state and local laws are observed.

RECOMMENDED INFLATION
PRESSURESI030A03L-AATTire label located on the driver's door
edge gives the cold tire pressures rec-
ommended for your vehicle with the
original tire size, the number of people
that can be in your vehicle and vehicle
capacity weight.
I030A01L
These pressures were chosen to pro-
vide 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:
!
CAUTION:
Always observe the following:
o Check pressures when the tires
are cold. That is, after the car has
been parked for at least three hours
and hasn't been driven more than
one mile or 1.6 km since starting
up.WARNING:
o Lower-than-recommended tire
pressures cause uneven tread
wear, poor handling, pour fuel
economy or tire failure.
o Higher-than-recommended tire
pressures can cause poor han-
dling, uneven tread wear or tire
failure.

I035A01JM-AATCHECKING TIRE INFLATION PRES-
SURE
Check your tires once a month or more.
Also, check the tire pressure of the
spare tire.
How to Check
Use a good quality gage to check tire
pressure. You can not tell if your tires
are properly inflated simply by looking
at them. Radial tires may look properly
inflated even when they're underinflated.
Check the tire's inflation pressure when
the tires are cold. - "Cold" means your
vehicle has been sitting for at least
three hours or driven no more than 1
mile (1.6 km).
Remove the valve cap from the tire
valve stem. Press the tire gage firmly
onto the valve to get a pressure mea-
surement. If the cold tire inflation pres-
sure matches the recommended pres-
sure on the tire and loading information o Check the pressure of your spare
tire each time you check the pres-
sure of other tires.
o Never overload your car. Be espe-
cially careful about overloading if
you equip your car with a luggage
rack or car top carrier.
o Worn, old tires can cause acci-
dents. If your tread is badly worn,
or if your tires have been dam-
aged, replace them.
label, no further adjustment is neces-
sary. If the pressure is low, add air until
you reach the recommended amount.
If you overfill the tire, release air by
pushing on the metal stem in the center
of the tire valve. Recheck the tire pres-
sure with the tire gage. Be sure to put
the valve caps back on the valve stems.
They help prevent leaks by keeping out
dirt and moisture.
