I020A01A-DAT TYRE INFORMATION The tyres supplied on your new Hyundai are chosen to provide the best perfor-mance for normal driving. I030A02TB-DAT RECOMMENDED INFLATION PRESSURES The tyre label located in the glove box gives the tyre pressures recommendedfor your car. These pressures were chosen to pro- vide the most satisfactory combinationof ride comfort, tyre wear and stability under normal conditions. Tyre pressures should be checked at least monthly. Proper tyre inflation pres-sures should be maintained for these reasons:
o Lower-than-recommended tyre
pressures cause uneven tread wear and poor handling.
o Higher-than-recommended tyre pressures increase the chance ofdamage from impacts and causeuneven tread wear.
HTB263
CAUTION:
Always observe the following:
o Check pressures when the tyres are cold. That is, after the car has been parked for at least three hours and hasn't been drivenmore than 1.6 km or one mile since starting up.
o Check the pressure of your spare
tyre each time you check the pres-sure of other tyres.
o Never overload your car. Be es-
pecially careful about overload-ing if you equip your car with a luggage rack or car top carrier.!

I050A01TB-DAT TYRE CHAINS Tyre chains, if necessarly, should be installed on the front wheels. Be surethat the chains are the proper size and that they are installed in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions.To minimize tyre and chain wear, do not continue to use tyre chains when they are no longer needed.
I040A01A-DAT SNOW TYRES If you equip your car with snow tyres, they should be the same size and havethe same load capacity as the original tyres. Snow tyres should be installed on allfour wheels; otherwise, poor handling may result. Snow tyres should carry 28 kPa (4 psi)more air pressure than the pressure recommended for the standard tyres on the tyre label on the right door innerpanel, or up to the maximum pressure shown on the tyre sidewall whichever is less. Do not drive faster than 120km/h (75 mph) when your car is equipped with snow tyres. I060A01A-DAT TYRE ROTATION Tyres should be rotated every 10,000 km (6,000 miles). If you notice that tyres are wearing unevenly betweenrotations, have the car checked by a Hyundai dealer so the cause may be corrected.After rotating, adjust the tyre pres- sures and be sure to check wheel nut tightness.

WARNING:
o When driving on roads covered with snow or ice, drive at less than 30 km/h (20 mph).
o Use the SAE "S" class or wire &
plastic chains.
o Don't use the tyre chains in 185/ 55R 15 tyre to prevent body dam-age.
o If you have noise caused by chaws contacting the body, retighten thechain to avoid contact with thevehicle body.
o Retighten the chains to prevent
body damage after driving 0.5 ~ 1km with equipping chains.

I070A01A-DAT TYRE BALANCING A tyre that is out of balance may affect handling and tyre wear. The tyres on your Hyundai were balanced before the car was delivered but mayneed balancing again during the years you own the car. Whenever a tyre is dismounted forrepair, it should be rebalanced before being reinstalled on the car. I080A01A-DAT TYRE TRACTION Tyre traction can be reduced if you drive on worn tyres, tyres that areimproperly inflated or on slippery road surfaces. Tyres should be replaced when tread wear indicators appear. Toreduce the possibility of losing control, slow down whenever there is rain, snow or ice on the road.
I090A03S-DAT WHEN TO REPLACE TYRESWear indicator
1.6 mm (0.06 in.)
HGK248
WARNING:
Do not mix bias-ply and radial-ply under any circumstances. This may cause dangerous handling charac-teristics.
The original tyres on your car have tread wear indicators. The tread wear indicators appear when the tread depthis 1.6 mm (0.06 in). The tyre should be replaced when these appear as a solid bar across two or more grooves of thetread. Always replace your tyres with those of the recommended size. If you change wheels, the new wheel’s rimwidth and offset must be those speci- fied by Hyundai.

I110A01A-DAT SHOP MANUAL A Hyundai Shop Manual is available from your authorised Hyundai dealer. It's written for the professional techni- cians, but is simple enough for mostmechanically-inclined owners to un- derstand.
!WARNING:
o Driving on worn-out tyres is dan- gerous! Worn-out tyres can cause loss of braking effectiveness, steer- ing control and traction. When re-placing tyres, never mix radial and bias-ply tyres on the same car. If you replace radial tyres with bias-ply tyres, they must be installed in sets of four.
o Using tyres and wheels other than
the recommended sizes may causeunusual handling characteristics that may cause death, serious in- jury or property damage.
o Tyres degrade over time, even when
they are not being used. Regard-less of the remaining tread, it is recommended that tyres generallybe replaced after six (6) years of normal service. Heat caused by hot climates or frequent high loadingconditions can accelerate the ag- ing process. Failure to follow this warning can result in sudden tyrefailure, which could lead to a loss of control and an accident involv- ing serious injury or death. o The ABS works by comparing the
speed of the wheels. Tire size can affect wheel speed. When replacing tires, all 4 tires must use the samesize originally supplied with the vehicle. Using tires of a different size can cause the ABS (Anti-lockBrake System) and ESP(Electronic Stability Program) to work irregu- larly.
