B740D01A-AAT Operation Tips
o If the interior of the car is hot when
you first get in, open the windows for a few minutes to expel the hot air.
o When you are using the air condi-
tioning system, keep all windowsclosed to keep hot air out.
o When moving slowly, as in heavy
traffic, shift to a lower gear. Thisincreases engine speed, which in turn increases the speed of the air conditioning compressor.
o On steep grades, turn the air condi- tioning off to avoid the possibility ofthe engine over-heating.
o During winter months or in periods when the air conditioning is not usedregularly, run the air conditioningonce every month for a few min- utes. This will help circulate the lubricants and keep your system inpeak operating condition. INSIDE OF A VEHICLE

o Replace the filter every 15,000 km (10,000 miles) or once a year. If the car is being driven in severe con- ditions such as dusty, roughroads, more frequent climate con- trol air filter inspections and changes are required.
o When the air flow rate is suddenly decreased, the system should bechecked at an authorized dealer.

G140C01A-AAT Lubrication To lubricate the compressor and the seals in the system, the air condition-ing should be run for at least 10 min- utes each week. This is particularly important during cool weather whenthe air conditioning system is not oth- erwise in use. G140D01TB-GAT Checking the Compressor Drive Belt

CRANK PULLEY
When the air conditioning is being used regularly, the compressor drive belt tension should be checked at least once a month.To check the drive belt tension, press down on the belt halfway between the engine crankshaft and compressorpulleys. Pressing with your finger, you should not be able to deflect this belt anymore than 8.0 mm (1.1L: 5~ 5.5mm). If you have the instruments to check it with a force of 98N (22 lb.), the deflection should be approx. 8.0 mm(0.315 in.). If the belt is too loose, have it adjusted by your Hyundai dealer. HTB219

CAUTION:
Be sure to install the climate control air filter in the direction of the arrow sign. Unless, it may cause noise ordeterioration. G150A01A-GAT CHECKING STEERING WHEEL FREE-PLAY To check the steering wheel free-play, stop the car with the wheels pointed straight ahead and gently move thesteering wheel back and forth. Use very light finger pressure and be sen- sitive to changes in resistance thatmark the limits of the free-play. If the freeplay is greater than specified, have it inspected by your Hyundai dealerand adjusted or repaired if necessary.

I100A01TB-GAT SPARE TIRE AND TOOLS
Your Hyundai is delivered with the fol- lowing: Spare tire and wheel Wheel nut wrench, Wrench bar, Screw driver,Jack, Towing hook HTB224
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 mixradial and bias-ply tires on the same car. If you replace radial tires with bias-ply tires, they mustbe installed in sets of four.
o Using tires and wheels of other
than the recommended sizes maycause unusual handling charac- teristics that may cause death, serious injury or property dam-age.
o Tires degrade over time, even when
they are not being used. Regard-less of the remaining tread, it is recommended that tires generally be replaced after six (6) years ofnormal service. Heat caused by hot climates or frequent high load- ing conditions can accelerate theaging process. Failure to follow this warning can result in sudden tire failure, which could lead to aloss of control and an accident involving serious injury or death.
!
The original tires on your car have tread wear indicators. The tread wear indica- tors appear when the tread depth is 1.6 mm (0.06 in.). The tire should be re-placed when these appear as a solid bar across two or more grooves of the tread. Always replace your tires withthose of the recommended size. If you change wheels, the new wheel's rim width and offset must meet Hyundaispecification.

SI060B2-E TYRE REPLACEMENT
Wear indicator
0.06 in. (1.6 mm)
HGK248
NOTE:
o Do not use the temporary spare
tyre for tyre rotation.
o Aluminium wheels which are not
supplied as Original Equipment should not be mixed on the same vehicle with the original steelwheels. However, it is acceptable that the steel spare wheel be used in conjunction with Original Equip-ment aluminium wheels since the offset of both wheels is compat- ible. Radial and cross ply tyresshould not be mixed on the same vehicle.
SI060A1-E TYRE BALANCING Incorrect tyre balance will cause steer- ing vibration and uneven tyre wear. The vehicle tyres are balanced during pro-duction but may need further balancing throughout the life of the tyres. It is recommended that the tyres bebalanced on the car for best results and that the tyres are balanced whenever they have been removed from the wheelfor repair. Tyres must be replaced when the wearindicators appear as a solid bar acrossthe tyre tread. At this point, the remain- ing tread depth will be approximately 0.06 in.(1.6 mm). In addition to this, thetyre must be replaced if any portion of the tread has become bald or if there are any lumps, bulges or deep cuts in thesidewalls or tread. Replacement tyres must be of the rec- ommended size and rating and shouldbe of the same manufacture and tread pattern on each axle.
!WARNING:
Tires degrade over time, even when they are not being used. Regardless of the remaining tread, it is recom- mended that tires generally be re-placed after six (6) years of normal service. Heat caused by hot climates or frequent high loading conditionscan accelerate the aging process. Failure to follow this warning can result in sudden tire failure, whichcould lead to a loss of control and an accident involving serious injury or death.
