CHECKING AND REPLACING
FUSESG200A03A-AATReplacing a Fusible LinkA fusible link will melt if the electrical cir-
cuits from the battery are ever overloaded,
thus preventing damage to the entire wir-
ing harness. (This could be caused by a
short in the system drawing too much cur-
rent.) If this ever happens, have a Hyundai
dealer determine the cause, repair the
system and replace the fusible link. The
fusible links are located in a relay box in the
engine compartement for easy inspection.

5. Replace the air conditioner filter by lift-
ing it.
6. Installation is the reverse order of disas-
sembly.
HNF2165
CAUTION:
To prevent pollutants from entering the
car, be sure to properly install the air
conditioner filter.
!
(If Installed)The parking brake pedal should be
checked periodically for proper stroke. If
you feel looseness in the parking brake
pedal when the parking brake is engaged,
have your parking brake adjusted by an
authorized Hyundai dealer.CHECKING PARKING

Pressures
I020A02A-AATTire Information
The tires supplied on your new Hyundai
are chosen to provide the best perfor-
mance for normal driving.
If you ever have questions about your
tire warranty and where to obtain ser-
vice, see the tire manufacture's booklet
included with your vehicle's Owner's
Manual Literature Kit.
Tire label located on the driver's side of
the center pillar outer panel gives the
cold tire pressures recommended for
your vehicle with the original tire size,
the number of people that can be in your
vehicle and vehicle capacity weight.

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:
Type D
I030A04CM
WARNING:
o Underinflation also results in ex-
cessive wear, poor handling and
reduced fuel economy. Wheel de-
formation also is possible. Keep
your tire pressures at the proper
levels. If a tire frequently needs
refilling, have it checked by your
Hyundai Dealer.
o Overinflation produces a harsh
ride, excessive wear at the center
of the tire tread, and a greater
possibility of damage from road
hazards.o Inspect your tires frequently for
proper inflation as well as wear
and damage. Always use a tire
pressure gauge.
o Tires with too much or too little
pressure wear unevenly causing
poor handling, loss of vehicle
control, and sudden tire failure
leading to accidents, injuries, and
even death. The recommended
cold tire pressure for your vehicle
can be found in this manual and
on the tire label located on the
driver's side of the center pillar.
o Worn tires can cause accidents.
Replace tires that are worn, show
uneven wear, or are damaged. See
page 8-11.
o Remember to check the pressure
of your spare tire. Hyundai recom-
mends that you check the spare
every time you check the pressure
of the other tires on your vehicle.WARNING:

WARNING:
Overinflation or underinflation can
reduce the tire life, adversely affect
vehicle handling, and lead to sud-
den tire failure. This could rusult in
loss of vehicle control and potential
injury.CAUTION:
Always observe the following:
o Check pressures when the tires
are cold. (After the vehicle has
been parked for at least three hours
or hasn't been driven more than
one mile (1.6 km) since starting
up.)
o Check the pressure of your spare
tire each time you check the pres-
sure of other tires.
o Never overload your vehicle. Be
especially careful about overload-
ing if you equip your vehicle with
a luggage rack.
o Worn, old tires can cause acci-
dents. If your tread is badly worn,
or if your tires have been dam-
aged, replace them.
!
I035A01JM-AATChecking Tire Inflation Pressure
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).

1. Manufacturer or Brand name
o Manufacturer or Brand name is
shown.
2. Tire size (example: P235/70R16 104T)
o The "P" indicates the tire is de-
signed for passenger vehicles. A
"T" is the designation for a tempo-
rary spare tire.
o Three-digit number (235): This num-
ber gives the width in millimeters
of the tire from sidewall edge to
sidewall edge.
o Two-digit number (70): This num-
ber, known as the aspect ratio,
gives the tire's ratio of height to
width.
o R: The "R" stands for radial.
o Two-digit number (16): This num-
ber is the wheel or rim diameter in
inches.
o Two (or three) digit number (104):
This number is the tire's load in-
dex. It is a measurement of how
much weight each tire can sup-
port.
Federal law requires tire manufacturers
to place standardized information on
the sidewall of all tires. This information
identifies and describes the fundamen-
tal characteristics of the tire and also
provides the tire identification number
(TIN) for safety standard certification.
The TIN can be used to identify the tire
in case of a recall.I030B01CM-AATTire Sidewall Labeling

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
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.
