CAUTION:
o Do not use any tire sealant if your
vehicle is equipped with a Tire
Pressure Monitoring System. The
liquid sealant can damage the
tire pressure sensors.
o In order for the system to cor-
rectly monitor tires for under-in-
flation, there should be a total of
exactly 4 sensors fitted to each of
the four driven wheel positions.
There should be no other sen-
sors in the vehicle including spare
tire since this could cause the
system to monitor the wrong sen-
sors.
WARNING:
Tampering with, modifying, or dis-
abling the Tire Pressure Monitoring
System (TPMS) components may
interfere with the system's ability to
warn the driver of low tire pressure
conditions and/or TPMS malfunc-
tions. Tampering with, modifying,
or disabling the Tire Pressure Moni-
toring System (TPMS) components
may void the warranty for that por-
tion of the vehicle.
!
WARNING - TPMS
o The TPMS cannot alert you to
severe and sudden tire damage
caused by external factors such
as nails or road debris.
o If you feel any vehicle instability,
immediately take your foot off the
accelerator, apply the brakes
gradually and with light force,
and slowly move to a safe posi-
tion off the road.This device complies with Part 15
of the FCC rules.
Operation is subject to the following
two conditions:
1. This device may not cause harmful
interference, and
2. This device must accept any inter-
ference received, including interfer-
ence that may cause undesired op-
eration.
WARNING:
Changes or modifications not ex-
pressly approved by the party re-
sponsible for compliance could void
the user’s authority to operate the
equipment.

CAUTION:
- Automatic Transaxle
If the car is being towed with all four
wheels on the ground, it can be towed
only from the front. Be sure that the
transaxle is in neutral. Do not tow at
speeds greater than 30 mph (50 km/h)
and for more than 15 miles (25 km). Be
sure the steering is unlocked by plac-
ing the key in the "ACC" position. A
driver must be in the towed vehicle to
operate the steering and brakes.

(1)Open the towing hole cover by push-
ing it with your finger.(2)Take out the towing hook from the jack
case. To mount the towing hook, ro-
tate it clockwise.
NOTE:
The jack case is located on the spare
tire in the trunk or luggage compart-
ment.
!
CAUTION
It should be tightened firmly with your
fingers until there is no more play in the
towing hole. Towing hook is located in
the jack case on the spare tire.
How to Use Front Towing Hook
(If Installed)
NOTE:
Place the towing hook & towing hole
cover in its original position when not in
use.
(3)Attach a tow cable, chain or strap to the
towing hook on the front bumper.

1. Manufacturer or Brand name
o Manufacturer or Brand name is
shown.
2. Tire size (example: P175/70R14)
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 (175): This
number gives the width in millime-
ters 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 (14): This num-
ber is the wheel or rim diameter in
inches.
o Two (or three) digit number (84):
This number is the tire's load in-
dex. It is a measurement of how
much weight each tire can sup-
port.o T: Speed Rating. The speed rat-
ing denotes the speed at which a
tire is designed to be driven for
extended periods of time. The
ratings range from "A" to "Z" (98
to 186 MPH).
3. TIN (Tire Identification Number) for
new tire (example: DOT XX XX
XXX XXXX)
o DOT: Abbreviation for the "De-
partment of Transportation". The
symbol can be placed above, be-
low or to the left or right of the Tire
Identification Number. Indicates
tire is in compliance with the U.S.
Department of Transportation
Motor Vehicle Safety Standards.
o 1st two-digit code: Manufacturer's
identification mark
o 2nd two-digit code: Tire size
o 3rd three-digit code: Tire type code
(Optional)
o 4th four-digit code: Date of Manu-
facture
o Four numbers represent the week
and year the tire was built. For
example, the numbers 3108
means the 31st week of 2008.4. Tire ply composition and mate-
rial
The number of layers or plies of
rubbercoated fabric in the tire. Tire
manufacturers also must indicate
the materials in the tire, which in-
clude steel, nylon, polyester, and
others. The letter "R" means radial
ply construction; the letter "D" means
diagonal or bias ply construction;
and the letter "B" means belted-bias
ply construction.
5. Maximum permissible inflation
pressure
This number is the greatest amount
of air pressure that should be put in
the tire. Do not exceed the maxi-
mum permissible inflation pressure.
Refer to the Tire and Loading Infor-
mation label for recommended infla-
tion pressure.

I040A01O-AATSNOW TIRES
If you equip your car with snow tires,
they should be the same size and
have the same load capacity as the
original tires. Snow tires should be
installed on all four wheels; otherwise,
poor handling may result.
Snow tires should carry 4 psi (28 kPa)
more air pressure than the pressure
recommended for the standard tires on
the tire label on the driver's side of the
center pillar , or up to the maximum
pressure shown on the tire sidewall
whichever is less.
Do not drive faster than 75 mph (120
km/h) when your car is equipped with
snow tires.
I040B01JM-AATALL SEASON TIRES
Hyundai specifies all season tires on
some models to provide good perfor-
mance for use all year round, including
snowy and icy road conditions. All sea-
son tires are identified by ALL SEA-
SON and/or M+S (Mud and Snow) on
the tire sidewall. Snow tires have better
snow traction than all season tires an
may be more appropriate in some areas. Vehicle Capacity Weight: The num-
ber of designated seating positions
multiplied by 150 lbs. (68 kg) plus the
rated cargo and luggage load.
Vehicle Maximum Load on the Tire:
Load on an individual tire due to curb
and accessory weight plus maximum
occupant and cargo weight.
Vehicle Normal Load on the Tire:
That load on an individual tire that is
determined by distributing to each axle
its share of the curb weight, accessory
weight, and normal occupant weight
and driving by 2.
Vehicle Placard: A label permanently
attached to a vehicle showing the origi-
nal equipment tire size and recom-
mended inflation pressure.
