WHAT TO DO IN AN EMERGENCY
4. As the temporary spare tire is spe-
cifically designed for your car, it
should not be used on any other
vehicle.
5. The temporary spare tire should not
be used on any other wheels, nor
should standard tires, snow tires,
wheel covers or trim rings be used
with the temporary spare wheel. If
such use is attempted, damage to
these items or other car compo-
nents may occur.
6. The temporary spare tire pressure
should be checked once a month
while the tire is stored.
SPARE TIRESpare Tire PressureD040A02MC-AATTEMPORARY SPARE TIRE
The following instructions for the tem-
porary spare tire should be observed:
1. Check inflation pressure as soon as
is practical after installing the spare
tire, and adjust to the specified
pressure. The tire pressure should
be periodically checked and main-
tained at the specified pressure while
the tire is stored.Tire Size
Inflation Pressure
T115/70D15
60 psi (420 kPa)
2. The spare tire should only be used
temporarily and should be returned
to the luggage compartment as soon
as the original tire can be repaired or
replaced.
3. Continuous use at speeds of over
50 mph (80 km/h) is not recom-
mended.
!
WARNING:
The temporary spare tire is for emer-
gency use only. Do not operate
your vehicle on this temporary spare
at speeds over 50 mph (80 km/h).
The original tire should be repaired
or replaced as soon as is possible
to avoid failure of the spare possi-
bly leading to personal injury or
death.CAUTION:
o Do not use snow chains with
your temporary spare tire.
o Do not use more than one tempo-
rary spare tire at a time.
o When the original tire and wheel
are repaired and reinstalled on
the vehicle, the wheel nut torque
must be set correctly to prevent
wheel vibration. The correct wheel
nut tightening torque is 65~79lb-
ft (9~11kg.m).

D060H02A-AAT7. Re-install Wheel Nuts
To reinstall the wheel cover, hold it on
the studs, put the wheel nuts on the
studs and tighten them finger tight.
The nuts should be installed with their
small diameter ends directed inward.
Jiggle the tire to be sure it is com-
pletely seated, then tighten the nuts
as much as possible with your fingers
again.
D060H03MC
WARNING:
If there is not good contact on the
mounting surface between the wheel
and hub, the wheel nuts could loosen
and cause the loss of a wheel. Loss
of a wheel may result in loss of
control of the vehicle. This may
cause serious injury or death.
D060I01E-GAT8. Lower Vehicle and Tighten Nuts
Lower the car to the ground by turning
the wheel nut wrench counterclock-
wise. Then position the wrench as
shown in the drawing and tighten the
wheel nuts. Be sure the socket is
seated completely over the nut. Do not
stand on the wrench or use an exten-
sion pipe over the wrench handle.
Go around the wheel tightening every
other nut until they are all tight. Then
double-check each nut for tightness.
After changing wheels, have a techni-
cian tighten the wheel nuts to their
proper torque as soon as possible.

D060J01E-AATAfter Changing Wheels
If you have a tire gauge, remove the
valve cap and check the air pressure.
If the pressure is lower than recom-
mended, drive slowly to the nearest
service station and inflate to the cor-
rect pressure. If it is too high, adjust it
until it is correct. Always reinstall the
valve cap after checking or adjusting
tire pressure. If the cap is not re-
placed, air may leak from the tire. If
you lose a valve cap, buy another and
install it as soon as possible.
After you have changed wheels, al-
ways secure the flat tire in its place in
the trunk and return the jack and tools
to their proper storage locations.

IF YOUR VEHICLE MUST BE
TOWEDD080A01O-GATIf your vehicle has to be towed, it should
be done by your Hyundai dealer or a
commercial tow truck service. This will
help assure that your vehicle is not dam-
aged in towing. Also, professionals are
generally aware of local laws governing
towing. In any case, rather than risk dam-
age to your car, it is suggested that you
show this information to the tow truck
operator. Be sure that a safety chain sys-
tem is used and that all local laws are
observed.
It is recommended that your vehicle be
towed with a wheel lift and dollies or
flatbed equipment with all the wheels off
the ground.
!
CAUTION:
o Your vehicle can be damaged if towed
incorrectly!
o Be sure the transaxle is in neutral.
o When the engine will not start, be
sure the steering is unlocked by plac-
ing the key in the "ACC" position.

F070M01A-AATo Steering Gear Box, Linkage &
Boots/Lower Arm Ball JointWith the vehicle stopped and engine off,
check for excessive free-play in the steer-
ing wheel. Check the linkage for bends or
damage. Check the dust boots and ball
joints for deterioration, cracks, or dam-
age. Replace any damaged parts.
F070L01A-AATo Suspension Mounting BoltsCheck the suspension connections for
looseness or damage. Retighten to the
specified torque.F070K01A-AATo Exhaust Pipe and MufflerVisually inspect the exhaust pipes, muf-
fler and hangers for cracks, deterioration,
or damage. Start the engine and listen
carefully for any exhaust gas leakage.
Tighten connections or replace parts as
necessary.F070J01A-AATo Front Brake Disc/Pads, CalipersCheck the pads for excessive wear, discs
for run out and wear, and calipers for fluid
leakage.
F070Q01A-AATo Air Conditioning RefrigerantCheck the air conditioning lines and con-
nections for leakage and damage. Check
air conditioning performance according
to the relevant shop manual if necessary.F070P01A-AATo Driveshafts and BootsCheck the drive shafts, boots and clamps
for cracks, deterioration, or damage. Re-
place any damaged parts and, if neces-
sary, repack the grease.
F070N01A-AATo Power Steering Pump, Belt and
HosesCheck the power steering pump and
hoses for leakage and damage. Replace
any damaged or leaking parts immedi-
ately. Inspect the power steering belt for
evidence of cuts, cracks, excessive wear,
oiliness and proper tension. Replace or
adjust it if necessary.

I050A01MC-AATTIRE CHAINS
Tire chains, if necessary, should be
installed on the front wheels. Be sure
that the chains are installed in accor-
dance with the manufacturer's instruc-
tions.
To minimize tire and chain wear, do
not continue to use tire chains when
they are no longer needed.
WARNING:
o If your vehicle is equipped with
P205/45R16 size tires, do not in-
stall tire chains. This may cause
damage to the vehicle (wheels,
suspension and body) by chains
contacting the body.
o When driving on roads covered
with snow or ice, drive at less
than 20 mph (30 km/h).
o Use the SAE "S" class or wire &
plastic chains.o If you have noise caused by
chains contacting the body, re-
tighten the chain to avoid contact
with the vehicle body.
o To prevent body damage, re-
tighten the chains after driving
0.3~0.6 miles.
o Don't use tire chains on a vehicle
equipped with aluminium wheels.
If it is unavoidable, use wire type
chains.
o Use wire chains less than 15 mm
to prevent damage to the chain's
connection.WARNING:
I060A02A-AATTIRE ROTATION
Tires should be rotated every 7,500
miles (12,000 km). If you notice that
tires are wearing unevenly between
rotations, have the car checked by a
Hyundai dealer so the cause may be
corrected.
After rotating, adjust the tire pressures
and be sure to check the wheel nut
torque.
