I040A01S-AAT SNOW TIRES SNOW TIRES SNOW TIRES SNOW TIRES SNOW TIRES If you equip your car with snow tires, they should be the same size and have the same load capacity as the original tires. Snow tires should be installed on all four wheels; other- wise, poor handling may result. Snow tires should carry 4 psi (28 kPa) more air pressure than the pressure recommended for the standard tires on the tire label on the driver side center pillar outer panel, or up to the maximum pressure shown on the tire sidewall whichever is less. Do not drive faster than 75 mph (120 km/h) when your car is equipped with snow tires. 8-2

I050A01S-AAT TIRE CHAINS TIRE CHAINS TIRE CHAINS TIRE CHAINS TIRE CHAINS Tire chains, if necessary, should be installed on the front wheels. Be sure that the chains are the proper size and that they are installed in accor- dance with the manufacturer's instructions. To minimize tire and chain wear, do not con- tinue to use tire chains when they are no longer needed.

WARNING: WARNING: WARNING: WARNING: WARNING: When driving on roads covered with snow When driving on roads covered with snow When driving on roads covered with snow When driving on roads covered with snow When driving on roads covered with snow or ice, drive at less than 20 mph (30 km/h). or ice, drive at less than 20 mph (30 km/h). or ice, drive at less than 20 mph (30 km/h). or ice, drive at less than 20 mph (30 km/h). or ice, drive at less than 20 mph (30 km/h).

SSA8050A

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.

I070A01A-AAT TIRE BALANCING TIRE BALANCING TIRE BALANCING TIRE BALANCING TIRE BALANCING A tire that is out of balance may affect handling and tire wear. The tires on your Hyundai were balanced before the car was delivered but may need balancing again during the years you own the car. Whenever a tire is dismounted for repair, it should be rebalanced before being reinstalled on the car.

I080A01A-AAT TIRE TRACTION TIRE TRACTION TIRE TRACTION TIRE TRACTION TIRE TRACTION Tire traction can be reduced if you drive on worn tires, tires that are improperly inflated or on slippery road surfaces. Tires should be re- placed when tread wear indicators appear. To reduce the possibility of losing control, slow down whenever there is rain, snow or ice on the road.

The original tires on your car have tread wear indicators. The tread wear indicators appear when the tread depth is 0.06 in. (1.6 mm). The tire should be replaced when these appear as a solid bar across two or more grooves of the tread. Always replace your tires with those of the recommended size. If you change wheels, the new wheel's rim width and offset must meet Hyundai specification.

For exam- ple, a tire graded 150 would wear one and a half (1 - 1/2) times as well on the government course as a tire graded 100. The relative perfor- mance of tires depends upon the actual condi- tions of their use, however, and may depart significantly from the norm due to variations in driving habits, service practices and differenc- es in road characteristics and climate.

Traction AA, A, B, C - Traction AA, A, B, C - Traction AA, A, B, C - The traction grades, Traction AA, A, B, C - Traction AA, A, B, C - from highest to lowest, are AA, A, B, and C. Those grades represent the tire's ability to stop on wet pavement as measured under controlled conditions on specified government test surfac- es of asphalt and concrete. A tire marked C may have poor traction performance.

Sustained high temperature can cause the material of the tire to degenerate and reduce tire life, and excessive temperature can lead to sudden tire failure. The grade C corresponds to a level of performance which all passenger car tires must meet under the Fed- eral Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 109. Grades B and A represent higher levels of performance on the laboratory test wheel than the minimum required by law.
