2016 Hyundai Accent inflation pressure

Maintenance
52 7
5. Maximum permissible inflation
pressure
This number is the greatest amount
of air pressure that should be put in
the tyre. Do not exceed the maximum
permissible inflation pressure. Refer
to the Tyre and Loading Information
label for recommended inflation
pressure.
6. Maximum load rating
This number indicates the maximum
load in kilograms and pounds that
can be carried by the tyre. When
replacing the tyres on the vehicle,
always use a tyre that has the same
load rating as the factory installed
tyre.
7. Uniform tyre quality grading
Quality grades can be found where
applicable on the tyre sidewall
between tread shoulder and maxi-
mum section width.
For example:
TREADWEAR 200
TRACTION AA
TEMPERATURE A
Tread wear
The tread wear grade is a compara-
tive rating based on the wear rate of
the tyre when tested under controlled
conditions on a specified govern-
ment test course. For example, a tyre
graded 150 would wear one-and-a-
half times (1½) as well on the gov-
ernment course as a tyre graded
100.
The relative performance of tyres
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 characteristics and climate.
These grades are molded on the
side-walls of passenger vehicle
tyres. The tyres available as standard
or optional equipment on your vehi-
cle may vary with respect to grade.
Traction - AA, A, B & C
The traction grades, from highest to
lowest, are AA, A, B and C. Those
grades represent the tyre’s ability to
stop on wet pavement as measured
under controlled conditions on spec-
ified government test surfaces of
asphalt and concrete. A tyre marked
C may have poor traction perform-
ance.
WARNING
The traction grade assigned to
this tyre is based on straight-
ahead braking traction tests,
and does not include accelera-
tion, cornering, hydroplaning,
or peak traction characteristics.

Temperature -A, B & C
The temperature grades are A (the
highest), B, and C, representing the
tyre’s resistance to the generation of
heat and its ability to dissipate heat
when tested under controlled condi-
tions on a specified indoor laboratory
test wheel. Sustained high tempera-
ture can cause the material of the
tyre to degenerate and reduce tyre
life, and excessive temperature can
lead to sudden tyre failure. Grades B
and A represent higher levels of per-
formance on the laboratory test
wheel than the minimum required by
law.Low aspect ratio tyre
(if equipped)
Low aspect ratio tyres, whose aspect
ratio is lower than 50, are provided
for sporty looks.
Because the low aspect ratio tyres
are optimized for handling and brak-
ing, it may be more uncomfortable to
ride in and there is more noise com-
pare with normal tyres.
WARNING - Tyre
temperature
The temperature grade for this
tyre is established for a tyre that
is properly inflated and not
overloaded. Excessive speed,
underinflation, or excessive
loading, either separately or in
combination, can cause heat
build-up and possible sudden
tyre failure. This can cause loss
of vehicle control and serious
injury or death.
CAUTION
Because the sidewall of the low
aspect ratio tyre is shorter than
the normal, the wheel and tyre
of the low aspect ratio tyre is
easier to be damaged. So, follow
the instructions below.
- When driving on a rough road
or off road, drive cautiously
because tyres and wheels may
be damaged. And after driving,
inspect tyres and wheels.
- When passing over a pothole,
speed bump, manhole, or kerb
stone, drive slowly so that the
tyres and wheels are not dam-
aged.

CAUTION
• It is not easy to recognise the
tyre damage with your own
eyes. But if there is the slight-
est hint of tyre damage, even
though you cannot see the
tyre damage with your own
eyes, have the tyre checked or
replaced because the tyre
damage may cause air leak-
age from the tyre.
• If the tyre is damaged by driv-
ing on a rough road, off road,
pothole, manhole, or kerb
stone, it will not be covered by
the warranty.
• You can find out the tyre infor-
mation on the tyre sidewall.
(Continued)
- If the tyre is impacted, we rec-
ommend that you inspect the
tyre condition or contact an
authorised HYUNDAI dealer.
- To prevent damage to the tyre,
inspect the tyre condition and
pressure every 3,000km.
