Battery recharging
By battery charger
Your vehicle has a maintenance-free,
calcium-based battery.
If the battery becomes discharged
over a short time (because, for
example, the headlamps or interior
lights were left on whilst the vehicle
was not in use), recharge it by slow
charging (trickle) for 10 hours.
If the battery gradually discharges
because of high eletrical load
whilst the vehicle is being used,
recharge it at 20-30A for two hours.Always follow these instructions
when recharging your vehicle’s
battery to avoid the risk of SERI-
OUS INJURY or DEATH from
explosions or acid burns:
Before performing mainte-
nance or recharging the bat-
tery, turn off all accessories
and place the Engine Start/
Stop button to the OFF posi-
tion.
Keep all flames, sparks, or
smoking materials away from
the battery.
Always work outdoors or in an
area with plenty of ventilation.
Wear eye protection when
checking the battery during
charging.
The battery must be removed
from the vehicle and placed in
a well ventilated area.

After a jump start from a good bat-
tery, drive the vehicle for 20-30 min-
utes before it is shutoff. The vehicle
may not restart if you shut it off
before the battery had a chance to
adequately recharge. See “Jump
Starting” in chapter 6 for more infor-
mation on jump starting procedures.
Information
An inappropriately disposed
battery can be harmful to
the environment and human
health. Dispose of the bat-
tery according to your local
law(s) or regulations.
Reset features
The following items need to be reset
after the battery has been dis-
charged or the battery has been dis-
connected.

Tyre care
For proper maintenance, safety, and
maximum fuel economy, you must
always maintain recommended tyre
inflation pressures and stay within the
load limits and weight distribution rec-
ommended for your vehicle. (Continued)Replace tyres that are worn,
show uneven wear, or are dam-
aged. Worn tyres can cause
loss of braking effectiveness,
steering control, or traction.
ALWAYS replace tyres with
the same size as each tyre
that was originally supplied
with this vehicle. Using tyres
and wheels other than the rec-
ommended sizes could cause
unusual handling characteris-
tics, poor vehicle control, or
negatively affect your vehi-
cle’s Anti-Lock Brake System
(ABS) resulting in a serious
accident.
Tyre failure may cause loss of
vehicle control resulting in an
accident. To reduce risk of
SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH,
take the following precautions:
Inspect your tyres monthly for
proper inflation as well as
wear and damage.
The recommended cold tyre
pressure for your vehicle can
be found in this manual and on
the tyre label located on the
driver’s side centre pillar.
Always use a tyre pressure
gauge to measure tyre pres-
sure. Tyres with too much or
too little pressure wear
unevenly causing poor han-
dling.
Check the pressure of the
spare every time you check
the pressure of the other tyres
on your vehicle.

Maintenance
All specifications (sizes and pres-
sures) can be found on a label
attached to the vehicle.
Recommended cold tyre infla-
tion pressures
All tyre pressures (including the
spare) should be checked when the
tyres are cold. “Cold tyres” means
the vehicle has not been driven for at
least three hours or driven less than
1.6 km (one mile).
Warm tyres normally exceed recom-
mended cold tyre pressures by 28 to
41 kPa (4 to 6 psi). Do not release air
from warm tyres to adjust the pres-
sure or the tyres will be under-inflat-
ed. For recommended inflation pres-
sure, refer to “Tyre and Wheels” in
chapter 8.Recommended pressures must
be maintained for the best ride,
vehicle handling, and minimum
tyre wear.
Over-inflation or under-inflation
can reduce tyre life, adversely
affect vehicle handling, and
lead to sudden tyre failure that
could result in loss of vehicle
control resulting in an accident.
Severe under-inflation can lead
to severe heat build-up, causing
blowouts, tread separation and
other tyre failures that can
result in the loss of vehicle con-
trol resulting in an accident.
This risk is much higher on hot
days and when driving for long
periods at high speeds.

Maintenance
Check tyre inflation pressure
Check your tyres, including the spare
tyre, once a month or more.
How to check
Use a good quality tyre pressure
gauge to check tyre pressure. You
can not tell if your tyres are properly
inflated simply by looking at them.
Radial tyres may look properly inflat-
ed when they are under-inflated.
Remove the valve cap from the tyre
valve stem. Press the tyre gauge
firmly onto the valve to get a pres-
sure measurement. If the cold tyre
inflation pressure matches the rec-
ommended pressure on the tyre and
loading information label, no further
adjustment is necessary. If the pres-
sure is low, add air until you reach
the recommended pressure. Make
sure to put the valve caps back on
the valve stems. Without the valve
cap, dirt or moisture could get into
the valve core and cause air leakage.
If a valve cap is missing, install a new
one as soon as possible.If you overfill the tyre, release air by
pushing on the metal stem in the
centre of the tyre valve. Recheck the
tyre pressure with the tyre gauge. Be
sure to put the valve caps back on
the valve stems. Without the valve
cap, dirt or moisture could get into
the valve core and cause air leakage.
If a valve cap is missing, install a new
one as soon as possible.
Under-inflation results in
excessive wear, poor handling
and reduced fuel economy.
Wheel deformation is also
possible. Keep your tyre pres-
sures at the proper levels. If a
tyre frequently needs refilling,
we recommend it be checked
by an authorised HYUNDAI
dealer.
Over-inflation produces a
harsh ride, excessive wear at
the centre of the tyre tread,
and a greater possibility of
damage from road hazards.
