Winter Driving
The severe weather conditions of winter
quickly wear out tires and cause other
problems. To minimize winter driving
problems, you should take the following
suggestions:
Snow or Icy Conditions
You need to keep sufficient distance
between your vehicle and the vehicle in
front of you.
Apply the brakes gently. Speeding, rapid
acceleration, sudden brake applications,
and sharp turns are potentially very
hazardous practices. Sudden brake
applications on snowy or icy roads may
cause the vehicle to skid.
To drive your vehicle in deep snow, it may
be necessary to install tire chains on your
tires.
Always carry emergency equipment.
Some of the items you may want to carry
include tire chains, tow straps or chains, a
flashlight, emergency flares, sand, a
shovel, jumper cables, a window scraper,
gloves, ground cloth, coveralls, a blanket,
etc.
Snow tires
WARNING Snow tires should be equivalent in size
and type to the vehicle’s standard tires.
Otherwise, the safety and handling of
your vehicle may be adversely affected.
If you mount snow tires on your vehicle,
make sure to use radial tires of the same
size and load range as the original tires.
Mount snow tires on all four wheels to
balance your vehicle’s handling in all
weather conditions. The traction
provided by snow tires on dry roads may
not be as high as your vehicle’s original
equipment tires. Check with the tire dealer for maximum speed
recommendations.
Information Do not install studded tires without first
checking local and municipal regulations for
possible restrictions against their use.
Summer tires
• Summer tires are used to maximize the
driving performance on dry roads.
• If the temperature is below 45 °F (7 °C) or you are driving on snowy or icy
roads, the summer tires lose their brake
performance and traction as the tire
grip weakens significantly.
• If the temperature is below 45 °F (7 °C) or you are driving on snowy or icy
roads, mount snow tires or all-season
tires of the same size with your
vehicle’s standard tire for safe driving.
Both snow and all-season tires have
M+S markings.
• When using the M+S tires, use tires with the same tread produced by the same
manufacturer for safe driving.
• When driving with the M+S tires with the lower maximum allowable speed
than that of the vehicle’s standard
summer tire, be careful not to exceed
the speed allowed for the M+S tires.

Check battery and cables
Winter temperatures affect battery
performance. Inspect the battery and
cables, as specified in chapter 9. The
battery charging level can be inspected
by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer or in a
service station.
To prevent locks from freezing
Spray approved de-icing fluid or glycerin
into key holes. When a lock opening is
already covered with ice, spray approved
de-icing fluid over the ice to remove it.
When an internal part of a lock freezes, try
to thaw it with a heated key. Carefully use
the heated key to avoid an injury.
Use approved window washer anti-freeze
solution
Add authorized window washer
anti-freeze solution, as specified on the
window washer container. Window
washer anti-freeze solution is available
from an authorized HYUNDAI dealer, and
most vehicle accessory outlets. Do not
use coolant or other types of anti-freeze
solution, to prevent any damage to the
vehicle paint.
Do not let your parking brake freeze
Under some conditions, your parking
brake may freeze in the engaged position.
This is most likely to happen when there is
an accumulation of snow or ice around or
near the rear brakes or the brakes are wet.
When there is the risk that your parking
brake may freeze: temporarily apply the
parking brake with the gear in P (Park),
then block the rear wheels, and then
release the parking brake.Do not let ice and snow accumulate
underneath
Under some conditions, snow and ice
may build up under the fenders and
interfere with the steering. When driving
in such conditions during the severe
winter, check underneath the vehicle on a
regular basis, to make sure that the front
wheels and the steering components are
not blocked.
Carry emergency equipment
In accordance with weather conditions,
carry appropriate emergency equipment,
while driving. Some of the items you may
want to carry include tire chains, tow
straps or chains, flashlight, emergency
flares, sand, shovel, jumper cables,
window scraper, gloves, ground cloth,
coveralls, blanket, etc.
Do not place objects or materials in the
motor compartment
Putting objects or materials in the motor
compartment may cause a motor failure.
Such damage is not be covered by the
manufacturer’s warranty.
