TIRES AND WHEELS G200100AUN Tire care For proper maintenance, safety, and maximum fuel economy, you must always maintain recommended tire inflation pressures and stay within the load limits and weight distribution recommended for your vehicle.
G200200AEN-EU Recommended cold tire inflation pressures All tire pressures (including the spare) should be checked when the tires are cold. “Cold Tires” means the vehicle has not been driven for at least three hours or driven less than one mile (1.6 km). Recommended pressures must be maintained for the best ride, vehicle handling, and minimum tire wear. For recommended inflation pressure, refer to “Tire and wheels” in section 8.
Maintenance
CAUTION
(cid:129) Underinflation also results in excessive wear,poor handling and reduced fuel economy. Wheel deformation also is possible.Keep your tire pres- sures at the proper levels.If a tire frequently needs refilling, have it checked by an author- ized HYUNDAI dealer.
(cid:129) Overinflation produces a harsh ride, excessive wear at the center of the tire tread,and a greater possibility of dam- age from road hazards.
OBH088004N All specifications (sizes and pres- sures) can be found on a label attached to the driver’s side center pillar.
WARNING - Tire underin-
flation
Severe underinflation can lead to severe heat build-up, causing blowouts, tread separation and other tire failures that can result in the loss of vehicle control leading to severe injury or death. This risk is much higher on hot days and when driving for long periods at high speeds.
7 31
CAUTION - Tire pressure Always observe the following: (cid:129) Check tire pressure when the tires are cold. (After vehicle has been parked for at least three hours or hasn't been driven more than one mile (1.6
km) since startup.)(cid:129) Check the pressure of your spare tire each time you check the pressure of other tires.
(cid:129) Never overload your vehicle. Be careful not to overload a vehicle luggage rack if your vehicle is equipped with one. (cid:129) Worn,old tires can cause acci- dents. If your tread is badly worn, or if your tires have been damaged,replace them.
G200300AUN Checking tire inflation pressure Check your tires once a month or more. Also, check the tire pressure of the spare tire.
G200301AEN How to check Use a good quality gage to check tire pressure. You can not tell if your tires are properly inflated simply by look- ing at them. Radial tires may look properly inflated even when they're underinflated. Check the tire's inflation pressure when the tires are cold. - "Cold" means your vehicle has been sitting for at least three hours or driven no more than 1 mile (1.6 km).
Maintenance
CAUTION
(cid:129) Warm tires normally exceed recommended cold tire pres- sures by 4 to 6 psi (28 to 41
kPa). Do not release air from warm tires to adjust the pres- sure or the tires will be under- inflated.(cid:129) Be sure to reinstall the tire inflation valve caps. 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.
WARNING - Tire Inflation Overinflation or underinflation can reduce tire life, adversely affect vehicle handling, and lead to sudden tire failure. This could result in loss of vehicle control and potential injury.
32
Remove the valve cap from the tire valve stem. Press the tire gage firm- ly onto the valve to get a pressure measurement. If the cold tire inflation pressure matches the recommended pressure on the tire and loading information label, no further adjust- ment is necessary. If the pressure is low, add air until you reach the rec- ommended amount. If you overfill the tire, release air by pushing on the metal stem in the center of the tire valve. Recheck the tire pressure with the tire gage. Be sure to put the valve caps back on the valve stems. They help prevent leaks by keeping out dirt and mois- ture.
WARNING
(cid:129) Inspect your tires frequently for proper inflation as well as wear and damage. Always use a tire pressure gauge.
(cid:129) Tires with too much or too little pressure wear unevenly caus- ing poor handling, loss of vehi- cle control, and sudden tire failure leading to accidents, injuries, and even death. The recommended cold tire pres- sure for your vehicle can be found in this manual and on the tire label located on the dri- ver's side center pillar.
(cid:129) Worn tires can cause acci- dents. Replace tires that are worn, show uneven wear, or are damaged.
(cid:129) Remember to check the pres- sure of your spare tire. HYUNDAI recommends that you check the spare every time you check the pressure of the other tires on your vehi- cle.
Maintenance
G200400ABH Tire rotation To equalize tread wear, it is recom- mended that the tires be rotated every 7,500 miles (12,000 km) 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 pres- sure, improper wheel alignment, out- of-balance wheels, severe braking or severe cornering. Look for bumps or bulges in the tread or side of tire. Replace the tire if you find either 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.
7 33
WARNING
(cid:129) Do not use the compact spare
tire for tire rotation.
(cid:129) Do not mix bias ply and radial ply tires under any circum- stances. This may cause unusual handling characteris- tics that could result in death, severe injury, or property damage.
G200500AUN 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.
CAUTION
Improper wheel weights can damage your vehicle's alu- minum wheels. Use only approved wheel weights.

OEN076053
G200600ABH Tire replacement If the tire is worn evenly, a tread wear indicator will appear as a solid band across the tread. This shows there is less than 1/16 inch (1.6 mm) of tread left on the tire. Replace the tire when this happens. Do not wait for the band to appear across the entire tread before replac- ing the tire.
WARNING - Replacing
tires
To reduce the chance or serious or fatal injuries from an acci- dent caused by tire failure or loss of vehicle control: (cid:129) Replace tires that are worn, show uneven wear, or are damaged. Worn tires can cause loss of braking effec- tiveness, steering control, and traction.
(cid:129) Do not drive your vehicle with too little or too much pressure in your tires. This can lead to uneven wear and tire failure.
(cid:129) When replacing tires, never mix radial and bias-ply tires on the same car. You must replace all tires (including the spare) if moving from radial to bias-ply tires.
(Continued)
Maintenance
(Continued) (cid:129) Using tires and wheel other than the recommended sizes could cause unusual handling characteristics and poor vehi- cle control, resulting in a seri- ous accident.
(cid:129) Wheels that do not meet HYUNDAI’s specifications may fit poorly and result in damage to the vehicle or unusual handling and poor vehicle control.
(cid:129) The ABS works by comparing the speed of the wheels. Tire size can affect wheel speed. When replacing tires, all 4
tires must use the same size originally supplied with the vehicle. Using tires of a differ- ent size can cause the ABS (Anti-lock Brake System) and ESC (Electronic Stability Control) to work irregularly.7 35
Maintenance
G200601AUN Compact spare tire replacement A compact spare tire has a shorter tread life than a regular size tire. Replace it when you can see the tread wear indicator bars on the tire. The replacement compact spare tire should be the same size and design tire as the one provided with your new vehicle and should be mounted on the same compact spare tire wheel. The compact spare tire is not designed to be mounted on a regular size wheel, and the compact spare tire wheel is not designed for mount- ing a regular size tire.
36
G200700ABH Wheel replacement When replacing the metal wheels for any reason, make sure the new wheels are equivalent to the original factory units in diameter, rim width and offset.
WARNING
A wheel that is not the correct size may adversely affect wheel and bearing life, braking and stopping abilities, handling characteristics, ground clear- ance, body-to-tire clearance, snow clearance, speedometer and odometer cal- ibration, headlight aim and bumper height.
chain
G200800AUN 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 replaced when tread wear indicators appear. To reduce the possibility of losing control, slow down whenever there is rain, snow or ice on the road.
G200900AUN Tire maintenance In addition to proper inflation, correct wheel alignment helps to decrease tire wear. If you find a tire is worn unevenly, have your dealer check the wheel alignment. When you have new tires installed, make sure they are balanced. This will increase vehicle ride comfort and tire life. Additionally, a tire should always be rebalanced if it is removed from the wheel.

G201003AEN 3.Checking tire life (TIN :Tire
Identification Number)
Any tires that are over 6 years old, based on the manufacturing date, (including the spare tire) should be replaced by new ones. You can find the manufacturing date on the tire sidewall (possibly on the inside of the wheel), displaying the DOT Code. The DOT Code is a series of num- bers on a tire consisting of numbers and English letters. The manufactur- ing date is designated by the last four digits (characters) of the DOT code.
DOT : XXXX XXXX OOOO The front part of the DOT means a plant code number, tire size and tread pattern and the last four num- bers indicate week and year manu- factured. For example: DOT XXXX XXXX 1610 represents that the tire was produced in the 16th week of 2010.
WARNING - Tire age
Tires degrade over time, even when they are not being used. Regardless of the remaining tread, it is recommended that tires generally be replaced after six (6) years of normal service. Heat caused by hot climates or frequent high loading condi- tions can accelerate the aging process. Failure to follow this warning can result in sudden tire failure, which could lead to a loss of control and an acci- dent involving serious injury or death.
G201004AEN 4.Tire ply composition and material The number of layers or plies of rub- ber-coated fabric in the tire. Tire manufacturers also must indicate the materials in the tire, which include steel, nylon, polyester, and others. The letter "R" means radial ply con- struction; the letter "D" means diago- nal or bias ply construction; and the letter "B" means belted-bias ply con- struction.

G2010007AEN-EU 7.Uniform tire quality grading Quality grades can be found where applicable on tire sidewall between tread shoulder and maxi- mum section width. For example: TREAD wear 200 TRACTION AA TEMPERATURE A
Traction - AA, A, B & C The traction grades, 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 spec- ified government test surfaces of asphalt and concrete. A tire marked C may have poor traction perform- ance.
WARNING
The traction grade assigned to this tire is based on straight- ahead braking traction tests, and does not include accelera- tion, cornering, hydroplaning, or peak traction characteristics.
G201006AUN 6.Maximum load rating This number indicates the maximum load in kilograms and pounds that can be carried by the tire. When replacing the tires on the vehicle, always use a tire that has the same load rating as the factory installed tire.
Tread wear The tread wear grade is a compara- tive rating based on the wear rate of the tire when tested under controlled conditions on a specified govern- ment test course. For example, a tire graded 150 would wear one-and-a- half times (1½) as well on the gov- ernment course as a tire graded 100. The relative performance of tires 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 tires. The tires available as standard or optional equipment on your vehicle may vary with respect to grade.
7 39
Maintenance
Temperature -A, B & C The temperature grades are A (the highest), B and C representing the tire’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 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 cor- responds to a level of performance which all passenger car tires must meet under the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 109. Grades B and A represent higher levels of performance on the labora- tory test wheel than the minimum required by law.

WARNING - Tire
temperature
The temperature grade for this tire is established for a tire 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 tire failure. This can cause loss of vehicle control and serious injury or death.
G201100ABH Tire terminology and definitions Air Pressure: The amount of air inside the tire pressing outward on the tire. Air pressure is expressed in pounds per square inch (psi) or kilo- pascal (kPa). Accessory Weight: This means the combined weight of optional acces- sories. Some examples of optional accessories are, automatic transmis- sion, power seats, and air condition- ing. Aspect Ratio: The relationship of a tire's height to its width. Belt: A rubber coated layer of cords that is located between the plies and the tread. Cords may be made from steel or other reinforcing materials. Bead: The tire bead contains steel wires wrapped by steel cords that hold the tire onto the rim. Bias Ply Tire: A pneumatic tire in which the plies are laid at alternate angles less than 90 degrees to the centerline of the tread.
Cold Tire Pressure: The amount of air pressure in a tire, measured in pounds per square inch (psi) or kilo- pascals (kPa) before a tire has built up heat from driving. Curb Weight: This means the weight of a motor vehicle with standard and optional equipment including the maximum capacity of fuel, oil and coolant, but without passengers and cargo. DOT Markings: A code molded into the sidewall of a tire signifying that the tire is in compliance with the U.S. Department of Transportation motor vehicle safety standards. The DOT code includes the Tire Identification Number (TIN), an alphanumeric des- ignator which can also identify the tire manufacturer, production plant, brand and date of production. GVWR: Gross Vehicle Weight Rating GAWR FRT: Gross Axle Weight Rating for the Front Axle. GAWR RR: Gross Axle Weight Rating for the Rear axle.
Intended Outboard Sidewall: The side of an asymmetrical tire, that must always face outward when mounted on a vehicle. Kilopascal (kPa): The metric unit for air pressure. Load Index: An assigned number ranging from 1 to 279 that corre- sponds to the load carrying capacity of a tire. Maximum Inflation Pressure: The maximum air pressure to which a cold tire may be inflated. The maxi- mum air pressure is molded onto the sidewall. Maximum Load Rating: The load rating for a tire at the maximum per- missible inflation pressure for that tire. Maximum Loaded Vehicle Weight: The sum of curb weight; accessory weight; vehicle capacity weight; and production options weight. Normal Occupant Weight: The number of occupants a vehicle is designed to seat multiplied by 150
pounds (68 kg).Maintenance
Occupant Distribution: Designated seating positions. Outward Facing Sidewall: The side of a asymmetrical tire that has a par- ticular side that faces outward when mounted on a vehicle. The outward facing sidewall bears white lettering or bears manufacturer, brand, and/or model name molding that is higher or deeper than the same moldings on the inner facing sidewall. Passenger (P-Metric) Tire: A tire used on passenger cars and some light duty trucks and multipurpose vehicles. Recommended Inflation Pressure: Vehicle manufacturer's recommend- ed tire inflation pressure and shown on the tire placard. Radial Ply Tire: A pneumatic tire in which the ply cords that extend to the beads are laid at 90 degrees to the centerline of the tread.

Maintenance
Speed Rating: An alphanumeric code assigned to a tire indicating the maximum speed at which a tire can operate. Traction: The friction between the tire and the road surface. The amount of grip provided. Tread: The portion of a tire that comes into contact with the road. Treadwear Indicators: Narrow bands, sometimes called "wear bars," that show across the tread of a tire when only 2/32 inch of tread remains. UTQGS: Uniform Tire Quality Grading Standards, a tire information system that provides consumers with ratings for a tire's traction, tempera- ture and treadwear. Ratings are determined by tire manufacturers using government testing proce- dures. The ratings are molded into the sidewall of the tire. Vehicle Capacity Weight: The num- ber of designated seating positions multiplied by 150 lbs. (68 kg) plus the rated cargo and luggage load.
Vehicle Maximum Load on the Tire: Load on an individual tire due to curb and accessory weight plus maximum occupant and cargo weight. Vehicle Normal Load on the Tire: Load on an individual tire that is determined by distributing to each axle its share of the curb weight, accessory weight, and normal occu- pant weight and dividing by 2. Vehicle Placard: A label permanent- ly attached to a vehicle showing the original equipment tire size and rec- ommended inflation pressure.
All season tires HYUNDAI specifies all season tires on some models to provide good performance for use all year round, including snowy and icy road condi- tions. All season tires are identified by ALL SEASON and/or M+S (Mud and Snow) on the tire sidewall. Snow tires have better snow traction than all season tires and may be more appropriate in some areas.
Summer tires HYUNDAI specifies summer tires on some models to provide superior performance on dry roads. Summer tire performance is substantially reduced in snow and ice. Summer tires do not have the tire traction rat- ing M+S (Mud and Snow) on the tire side wall. if you plan to operate your vehicle in snowy or icy conditions. HYUNDAI recommends the use of snow tires or all season tires on all four wheels.
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 stan- dard tires on the tire label on the dri- ver's side of the center pillar, or up to the maximum pressure shown on the tire sidewall, whichever is less.42
Do not drive faster than 75 mph (120
km/h) when your car is equipped with snow tires.Tire chains Tire chains, if necessary, should be installed on the drive wheels (rear wheels). Be sure that the chains are installed in accordance with the manufactur- er's instructions. To minimize tire and chain wear, do not continue to use tire chains when they are no longer needed.
WARNING - Snow or ice
(cid:129) When driving on roads cov- ered with snow or ice, drive at less than 20 mph (30 km/h).
(cid:129) Use the SAE “S” class or wire
chains.
(cid:129) If you hear noise caused by chains contacting the body, retighten the chain to avoid contact with the vehicle body. (cid:129) To prevent body damage, retighten the chains after driv- ing 0.3~0.6 miles (0.5~1.0 km). (cid:129) Do not use tire chains on vehicles equipped with alu- minum wheels. In unavoid- able circumstance, use a wire type chain.
(cid:129) Use wire chains less than 0.47
inches (12 mm) to prevent damage to the chain’s con- nection.Maintenance
Radial-ply tires Radial-ply tires provide improved tread life, road hazard resistance and smoother high speed ride. The radi- al-ply tires used on this vehicle are of belted construction, and are selected to complement the ride and handling characteristics of your vehicle. Radial-ply tires have the same load carrying capacity, as bias-ply or bias belted tires of the same size, and use the same recommended inflation pressure. Mixing of radial-ply tires with bias-ply or bias belted tires is not recommended. Any combina- tions of radial-ply and bias-ply or bias belted tires when used on the same vehicle will seriously deteriorate vehicle handling. The best rule to fol- low is: Identical radial-ply tires should always be used as a set of four. Longer wearing tires can be more susceptible to irregular tread wear. It is very important to follow the tire rotation interval shown in this section to achieve the tread life potential of these tires. Cuts and punctures in radial-ply tires are repairable only in the tread area, because of sidewall flexing. Consult your tire dealer for radial-ply tire repairs.

This vehicle has 4 fuse panels, two locat- ed in the driver’s side and passenger’s side panel bolster, the others are in the engine compartment. If any of your vehicle’s lights, acces- sories, or controls do not work, check the appropriate circuit fuse. If a fuse has blown, the element inside the fuse will be melted. If the electrical system does not work, first check the driver’s side fuse panel. Always replace a blown fuse with one of the same rating. If the replacement fuse blows, this indi- cates an electrical problem. Avoid using the system involved and immediately consult an authorized HYUNDAI dealer. Three kinds of fuses are used:blade type for lower amperage rating, cartridge type, and fusible link for higher amperage rat- ings.
WARNING - Fuse replace-
ment
(cid:129) Never replace a fuse with any- thing but another fuse of the same rating.
(cid:129) A higher capacity fuse could cause damage and possibly a fire.
(cid:129) Never install a wire instead of the proper fuse - even as a temporary repair. It may cause extensive wiring damage and a possible fire.
CAUTION
Do not use a screwdriver or any other metal object to remove fuses because it may cause a short circuit and damage the system.
