CLIMATE CONTROL AIR FILTER
(IN FRONT OF BLOWER UNIT)B760A05E-AAT(If installed)The climate control air filter is located in
front of the blower unit behind the glove
box.
It operates to decrease the amount of pol-
lutants entering the car.
To replace the climate control air filter,
refer to the page 6-17.
CAUTION:
o Replace the filter every 10,000 miles
(15,000 km) or once a year. If the car
is being driven in severe conditions
such as dusty, rough roads, more
frequent climate control air filter in-
spections and changes are required.
o When the air flow rate is suddenly
decreased, the system should be
checked by an authorized dealer.

G140D02A-AATChecking the Compressor Drive Belt
G140C01A-AATLubricationTo lubricate the compressor and the seals
in the system, the air conditioning should
be run for at least 10 minutes each week.
This is particularly important during cool
weather when the air conditioning system
is not otherwise in use.
When the air conditioning is being used
regularly, the compressor drive belt ten-
sion should be checked at least once a
month with the engine turned off.
To check the drive belt tension, press down
on the belt halfway between the engine
crankshaft and compressor pulleys. Press-
ing with your finger, you should not be able
to deflect this belt anymore than 1/3 of an
inch. If the belt is too loose, have it adjusted
by your Hyundai dealer.

CONSUMER INFORMATION, REPORTING SAFETY DEFECTS & BINDING ARBITRATION OF WARRANTY CLAIMS

I130B04A-AATTire Quality Grading
Department of Transportation quality
grades - All passenger vehicle tires
must conform to Federal Safety Stan-
dards 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 con-
trolled conditions on a specified gov-
ernment 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 varia-
tions in driving habits, service prac-
tices and differences in road character-
istics and climate.
Traction AA, A, B, C - The traction
grades, from highest to lowest, are AA,
A, B, and C. Those grades represent
the tire's ability to stop on wet pave-
ment as measured under controlled
conditions on specified government test
surfaces of asphalt and concrete. A tire
marked C may have poor traction per-
formance.
!
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.
