o Driving on tires with no or insuf-
ficient tread is dangerous. Worn-
out tires can result in loss of
vehicle control, collisions, and
injury and even death. Worn-out
tires should be replaced as soon
as possible and should never be
used for driving. Always check
tire tread before driving your car.
Refer to this page for further in-
formation and tread limits.

CONSUMER INFORMATIONI130A01A-AATThis consumer information has been pre-
pared in accordance with regulations is-
sued by the National Highway Traffic
Safety Administration of the U.S. Depart-
ment of Transportation. It provides the
purchasers and/or prospective purchas-
ers of Hyundai automobiles with informa-
tion on uniform tire quality grading. Your
Hyundai dealer will help answer any
questions you may have as you read this
information.
I130B05A-AATTire Quality Grading
Department of Transportation quality
grades - All passenger vehicle tires
must conform to Federal motor vehicle
Safety Standards in addition to these
grades. These quality grades are
molded on the sidewall.
Treadwear - The treadwear grade is a
comparative rating based on the wear
rate of the tire when tested under
controlled conditions on a specified
government test course. For example,
a tire graded 150 would wear one and
a half (1 - 1/2) times as well on the
government course as a tire graded
100. The relative performance of tires
depends upon the actual conditions of
their use, however, and may depart
significantly from the norm due to
variations in driving habits, service
practices and differences in road char-
acteristics and climate.

HYUNDAI VEHICLEI120A03A-AATPlease consult your Owner's Handbook

Temperature A, B, C - The tempera-
ture grades are A (the highest), B, and
C, representing the tire's resistance to
the generation of heat and its ability to
dissipate heat when tested under con-
trolled conditions on a specified indoor
laboratory test wheel. Sustained high
temperature can cause the material of
the tire to degenerate and reduce tire
life, and excessive temperature can
lead to sudden tire failure. The grade C
corresponds to a level of performance
which all passenger car tires must
meet under the Federal Motor Vehicle
Safety Standard No. 109. Grades B
and A represent higher levels of perfor-
mance on the laboratory test wheel
than the minimum required by law.
!
WARNING:
The temperature grade for this tire
is established for a tire that is prop-
erly inflated and not overloaded.
Excessive speed, underinflation, or
excessive loading, either separately
or in combination, can cause heat
buildup and possible tire failure.
Uniform Tire Quality Grading
Quality grades can be found where
applicable on the tire sidewall between
tread shoulder and maximum section
width.
For example:
TREAD wear 200
TRACTION AA
TEMPERATUE A
!
Traction AA, A, B, C - The traction
grades, from highest to lowest, are
AA, A, B, and C. Those grades repre-
sent the tire's ability to stop on wet
pavement as measured under con-
trolled conditions on specified govern-
ment test surfaces of asphalt and
concrete. A tire marked C may have
poor traction performance.
WARNING:
The traction grade assigned to this
tire is based on straight-ahead brak-
ing traction tests, and does not in-
clude acceleration, cornering, hy-
droplaning, or peak traction charac-
teristics.
