NOTICE

[ It is permissible to add 3 psi to the standard tire pressure specification if colder
temperatures are expected soon.
Tires typically loose 1psi (7kPa) for every 12°F temperature drop. If extreme
temperature variations are expected, recheck your tire pressure as necessary to
keep them properly inflated.

[ An air pressure generally decreases, as you drive up to a high-altitude area above
sea level. Thus, if you plan to drive a high-altitude area, check the tire pressures
in advance. If necessary, inflate them to a proper level. (Air inflation per altitude:
+2.4 psi/1 mile)
CAUTION

[When replacing tires, use the same size originally supplied with the vehicle.
Using tires of a different size can damage the related parts or not work properly.

[ When replacing tires, ALWAYS use the same size, type, construction and tread
pattern supplied with the vehicle for all tires.

ESC OFF Usage
When Driving
The ESC OFF mode should only be used
brie
fly to help free the vehicle if stuck in
snow by temporarily stopping operation
of the ESC to maintain wheel torque.
To turn ESC off while driving, press the
ESC OFF button while driving on a flat
road surface.
NOTICE
To prevent damage to the transmission:

[ Do not allow wheel(s) of one axle to
spin excessively while the ESC, ABS,
and parking brake warning lights
are displayed. The repairs would not
be covered by the vehicle warranty.
Reduce engine power and do not
spin the wheel(s) excessively while
these lights are displayed.

[ When operating the vehicle on
a dynamometer, make sure the
ESC is turned off (ESC OFF light
illuminated).
Information
Turning the ESC off does not affect ABS
or standard brake system operation.
Vehicle Stability Management
(VSM)
The Vehicle Stability Management (VSM)
is a function of the Electronic Stability
Control (ESC) system. It helps ensure the
vehicle stays stable when accelerating
or braking suddenly on wet, slippery and
rough roads where traction over the four
tires can suddenly become uneven.
WARNING
Take the following precautions when
using the Vehicle Stability Management
(VSM):

[ALWAYS check the speed and the
distance to the vehicle ahead. The
VSM is not a substitute for safe
driving practices.

[ Never drive too fast for the road
conditions. The VSM system will not
prevent accidents. Excessive speed
in bad weather, slippery and uneven
roads can result in severe accidents.
VSM Operation
VSM ON condition
The VSM operates when:

[The Electr

onic Stability Control (ESC)
is on.

[ Vehicle speed is approximately above
9 mph (15 km/h) on curve roads.

[ Vehicle speed is approximately above
12 mph (20 km/h) when the vehicle is
braking on rough roads.
When operating
When you apply your brakes under
conditions which ma
y activate the ESC,
you may hear sounds from the brakes,
or feel a corresponding sensation in the
brake pedal. This is normal and it means
your VSM is active.
NOTICE
The VSM does not operate when:

[ Driving on a banked road such as
gradient or incline.

[ Driving rearward.

[ ESC OFF indicator light is on.

[ EPS (Electric Power Steering)
warning light (
) is on or blinks.

SPORT Mode
SPORT mode manages
the driving dynamics by
automatically adjusting
the steering effort, and the
engine and transmission
control logic for enhanced
driving performance.

[ When SPORT mode is selected by
pressing the DRIVE MODE button, the
SPORT indicator will illuminate.

[ Whenever the engine is restarted,
the Drive Mode will revert back to
NORMAL mode. If SPORT mode is
desired, re-select SPORT mode from
the DRIVE MODE button.

[ When SPORT mode is activated:
- The engine rpm will tend to remain a little higher for a brief time even
after releasing the accelerator. This
is a typical when the SPORT mode is
activated.
- Upshifts are delayed when accelerating
Information
In SPORT mode, the fuel efficiency may
decrease.
SNOW Mode
SNOW mode offers special
traction tuning for snow
optimizing available traction
in adverse conditions. Snow
mode adjusts left and right
wheel slip control, engine
torque and shift patterns
according to available
traction levels.
WARNING
Snow mode is designed base on 2WD (2
Wheel Drive), Do not drive in condition
that exceed the vehicles intended
design.
Invalid mode selection can lead to loss
of traction and skidding, particularly
on slippery roads, this can cause you to
lose control of the vehicle, which can
lead to accidents and serious injuries.

6. Loosen the wheel lug nuts counterclockwise one turn each in
the order shown above, but do not
remove any lug nuts until the tire has
been raised off of the ground.
OQX079002L
7. Place the jack at the designated jacking position under the frame
closest to the tire you are changing.
The jacking positions are plates
welded to the frame with two
notches. Never jack at any other
position or part of the vehicle. Doing
so may damage the side seal molding
or other parts of the vehicle.
OQXI069009
8. Insert the jack handle into the jack and turn it clockwise, raising the
vehicle until the tire clears the ground.
Make sure the vehicle is stable on the
jack.
9. Loosen the lug nuts with the wheel lug nut wrench and remove them with
your fingers. Remove the wheel from
the studs and lay it flat on the ground
out of the way. Remove any dirt or
debris from the studs, mounting
surfaces, and wheel.
10. Install the spare tire onto the studs of
the hub.
11. Tighten the lug nuts with your fingers
onto the studs with the smaller end of
the lug nuts closest to the wheel.
12. Lower the vehicle to the ground
by turning the jack handle
counterclockwise.
13. Use the wheel lug nut wrench to
tighten the lug nuts in the order
shown. Double-check each lug nut
until they are tight. After changing
tires, have an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer tighten the lug nuts to their
proper torque as soon as possible. The
wheel lug nut should be tightened to
79~94 lbf·ft (11~13 kgf·m).

7-19
When driving with the compact spare tire
mounted to your vehicle:

[Check the tire pressure after installing
the compact spare tire. The compact
spare tire should be inflated to 60 psi
(420 kPa).

[ Do not take this vehicle through
an automatic car wash while the
compact spare tire is installed.

[ Do not use the compact spare tire on
any other vehicle because this tire
has been designed especially for your
vehicle.

[ The compact spare tire’s tread life is
shorter than a regular tire. Inspect
your compact spare tire regularly and
replace worn compact spare tires with
the same size and design, mounted on
the same wheel.

[ Do not use more than one compact
spare tire at a time.
NOTICE
When the original tire and wheel are
repaired and reinstalled on the vehicle,
the lug nut torque must be set correctly.
The correct lug nut tightening torque is
79~94 lbf·ft (11~13 kgf·m).
CAUTION
To prevent damaging the compact
spare tire and your vehicle:

[Drive slowly enough for the road
conditions to avoid all hazards, such
as a potholes or debris.

[ Avoid driving over obstacles. The
compact spare tire diameter is
smaller than the diameter of a
conventional tire and reduces the
ground clearance approximately 1
inch (25 mm).

[ Do not use tire chains on the
compact spare tire. Because of the
smaller size, a tire chain will not fit
properly.

[ Do not use the compact spare tire
on any other wheels, nor should
standard tires, snow tires, wheel
covers or trim rings be used with the
compact spare wheel.

[ Do not suddenly accelerate or
decelerate (0 ~ 25 mph (0 ~ 40 km/h))
in any driving mode. It may cause
leakage of transfer oil.

Maintenance8-14
Brake/Clutch Fluid
Check the brake fluid level in the brake
fluid reservoir. The level should be
between the MIN and the MAX marks
on the side of the reservoir. Use only
hydraulic brake fluid conforming to DOT
4 specification.
Parking Brake
Inspect the parking brake system
including the parking brake pedal and
cables.
Brake Discs, Pads, Calipers and
Rotors
Check the pads for excessive wear, discs
for run out and wear, and calipers for
fluid leakage.
Exhaust Pipe and Muffler
Visually inspect the exhaust pipes,
muffler 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.
Suspension Mounting Bolts
Check the suspension connections for
looseness or damage. Retighten to the
specified torque.
Steering Gear Box, Linkage &
Boots/Lower Arm Ball Joint
With the vehicle stopped and the engine
off, check for excessive freeplay in the
steering wheel. Check the linkage for
bends or damage. Check the dust boots
and ball joints for deterioration, cracks,
or damage.
Replace any damaged parts.
Drive Shafts and Boots
Check the drive shafts, boots and clamps
for cracks, deterioration, or damage.
Replace any damaged parts and, if
necessary, repack the grease.
Air Conditioning Refrigerant
Check the air conditioning lines and
connections for leakage and damage.

Tire Rotation
To equalize tread wear, HYUNDAI
recommends that the tires
be rotated according to the
maintenance schedule or sooner if
irregular wear develops.
During rotation, check the tires for
correct balance.
When rotating tires, check for
uneven wear and damage. Abnormal
wear is usually caused by incorrect
tire pressure, improper wheel
alignment, out-of-balance wheels,
severe braking or severe cornering.
Look for bumps or bulges in the
tread or side of the tire. Replace
the tire if you find any of these
conditions. Replace the tire if fabric
or cord is visible. After rotation, be
sure to bring the front and rear tire
pressures to specification and check
lug nut tightness (proper torque is
79~94 lbf·ft [11~13 kgf·m]).
„Without a spare tire
ODH073802
Disc brake pads should be inspected
for wear whenever tires are rotated.
Information
Tires that are asymmetrical or
directional can only be installed on
the wheel in one direction. The outside
and inside of an asymmetrical tire
is not easily distinguishable. Pay
careful attention to the markings
on the sidewalls of the tires, noting
the “outside” marking and also the
rotating direction before installing
them on the vehicle.
WARNING

[Do not use the compact spare
tire for tire rotation.

[ Do not mix bias ply and radial ply
tires under any circumstances.
This may cause unusual handling
characteristics that may cause
loss of vehicle control resulting in
an accident.
Wheel Alignment and Tire
Balance
The wheels on your vehicle were
aligned and balanced carefully at the
factory to give you the longest tire
life and best overall performance.
In most cases, you will not need to
have your wheels aligned again.
However, if you notice unusual tire
wear or your vehicle pulling one way
or the other, the alignment may need
to be reset.
If you notice your vehicle vibrating
when driving on a smooth road, your
wheels may need to be rebalanced.
NOTICE
Improper wheel weights can
damage your vehicle’s aluminum
wheels. Use only approved wheel
weights.
