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; otherwise, poor han- dling 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's side of the center pillar , 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.

I040B01JM-AAT

ALL SEASON TIRES Hyundai specifies all season tires on some models to provide good perfor- mance for use all year round, including snowy and icy road conditions. All sea- son 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 an may be more appropriate in some areas.

I040C01JM-AAT

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 rating 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.

TIRE CHAINS Tire chains, if necessary, should be installed on the front wheels. If your vehicle is equipped with 4WD (four wheels drive), be sure to install the chains on all wheels. Be sure that the chains are installed in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions. To minimize tire and chain wear, do not continue to use tire chains when they are no longer needed.

WARNING:

o When driving on roads covered with snow or ice, drive at less than 20 mph.

o Use the SAE "S" class or wire &

plastic chains.

o Don't use a tire chains to the ve- hicle which aluminium wheels are installed to keep the wheels. If it is on unavoidable circumstances, use a wire chains.

WARNING:

o Use wire chains less than 15mm to prevent damage to the chain's connection.

o If you have noise caused by chains contacting the body, retighten the chain to avoid contact with the vehicle body.

o To prevent body damage, retighten the chains after driving 0.3~0.6
miles.

TIRE ROTATION

Spare tire

HA1409

Tires should be rotated every 7,500
miles (12,000 km). If you notice that tires are wearing unevenly between ro- tations, 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 wheel nut torque.

I080A01A-AAT

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.

WARNING:

Do not mix bias-ply and radial-ply under any circumstances. This may cause unusual handling characteris- tics that could result in death, seri- ous injury, or property damage.

I070A01A-AAT

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 re- pair, it should be rebalanced before being reinstalled on the car.

I090A02JM-AAT

WHEN TO REPLACE TIRES

0.06 in. (1.6 mm)

Tread wear indicator

HSM5013
The original tires on your car have tread wear indicators. The location of tread wear indicators is shown by the "TWI" or " " marks, etc., 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.

8 CONSUMER INFORMATION, REPORTING SAFETY DEFECTS & BINDING ARBITRATION OF WARRANTY CLAIMS 12

! WARNING:

o Driving on worn-out tires is dan- gerous! Worn-out tires can cause loss of braking effectiveness, steering control and traction. When replacing tires, never mix radial and bias ply tires on the same car. If you replace radial tires with bias- ply tires, they must be installed in sets of four.

o Wheels that do not meet Hyundai's dimensional specifications may fit poorly and result in damage to the vehicle, including broken wheel studs.

WARNING:

o Your vehicle is equipped with tires designed to provide for safe ride and handling capability. Do not use a size and type of tire and wheel that is different from the one that is originally installed on your vehicle. It can affect the safety and performance of your vehicle, which could lead to handling fail- ure or rollover and serious injury. When replacing the tires, be sure to equip all four tires with the tire and wheel of the same size, type, tread, brand and load-carrying capacity. If you nevertheless de- cide to equip your vehicle with any tire/wheel combination not rec- ommended by Hyundai for off- road driving, you should not use these tires for highway driving.

I090B01JM-AAT

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 align- ment.

When you have new tires installed, make sure they are balanced. This will increase vehicle ride comfort and tire life. Additionally, a tire shoud always be rebalanced if it is removed from the wheel.

CONSUMER INFORMATION

I130A01A-AAT This consumer information has been prepared in accordance with regulations issued by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration of the U.S. Department of Transportation. It provides the purchasers and/or prospective purchasers of Hyundai automobiles with infor- mation on uniform tire quality grading. Your Hyundai dealer will help answer any questions you may have as you read this information.

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 pave- ment as measured under controlled conditions on specified government test surfaces of asphalt and concrete. A tire marked C may have poor traction per- formance.

! WARNING:

The traction grade assigned to this tire is based on straight-ahead brak- ing traction tests, and does not in- clude acceleration, cornering, hy- droplaning, or peak traction charac- teristics.

I130B04A-AAT

Tire Quality Grading Department of Transportation quality grades - All passenger vehicle tires must conform to Federal Safety Stan- dards in addition to these grades. These quality grades are molded on the sidewall.

Treadwear - The treadwear grade is a comparative rating based on the wear rate of the tire when tested under con- trolled conditions on a specified gov- ernment test course. For example, 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 performance of tires depends upon the actual conditions of their use, however, and may depart significantly from the norm due to varia- tions in driving habits, service prac- tices and differences in road character- istics and climate.

CONSUMER INFORMATION, REPORTING SAFETY DEFECTS & BINDING ARBITRATION OF WARRANTY CLAIMS

15

Temperature A, B, C - The tempera- ture 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 con- trolled conditions 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 corresponds 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 laboratory test wheel than the minimum required by law.

! WARNING:

The temperature grade for this tire is established for a tire that is properly inflated and not overloaded. Exces- sive speed, underinflation, or exces- sive loading, either separately or in combination, can cause heat buildup and possible tire failure.

Uniform Tire Quality Grading - Qual- ity grades can be found on the tire sidewall between the tread shoulder and the maximum section width. For example : Treadwear 200 Traction AA Tempera- ture A

I130D04A-AAT Hyundai motor vehicles are designed and manu- factured to meet or exceed all applicable safety standards.
