INFORMATION
The vehicle identification number (VIN) is unique to each individual vehicle and is the number(sometimes referred to as chassis number) usedupon the vehicle registration document to iden-tify the vehicle.The VIN will be found stamped upon a plateattached to the engine bulkhead. The engine number is stamped on the engineblock as shown in the drawing. I030A01GK-EAT TYRE PRESSURES In modern high-speed motoring, correct tyre pressures are vitally important. Incorrect tyrepressures can affect vehicle safety by causingreduced adhesion, steering response and tyrefailure through overheating. The tyre pressuremust only be checked when the tyres are cold.The correct tyre pressures are indicated on thelabel affixed to the drivers door pillar and below. Tyre pressures should be increased by 3 psi when the vehicle is driven fully laden or underconditions of sustained high speed motoring. SI030A2-E SNOW TYRES If it is desired to fit snow tyres to the vehicle, it must be ascertained that the original size andload carrying capacity are met by the replace-ment tyres. When using snow tyres, the vehicleshould not be driven at speeds in excess of 60MPH.

CONSUMER INFORMATION

To minimize tyre and chain wear, do not continue to use tyre chains when they are no longerneeded. WARNING:
o When driving on roads covered with snow
or ice, drive at less than 30 km/h (20 mph).
o Use a tyre chains less than 10mm to 16", 17" tyre.
o Avoid sudden stop and turn.
o Tighten firmly not to hear contact sound, if it still sounds, remove the chains for dam-age protection. I060A01GK-EAT TYRE ROTATION The tyre wear characteristics will vary between each tyre dependant upon the conditions of use.It is normal for the front tyres to wear more rapidlythan those fitted to the rear of the vehicle andtherefore tyre rotation will provide a means ofhelping to ensure an even wear rate across thetyre set. For vehicles fitted with radial ply tyres,rotation should be confined to front to rear tyrealternation. It is not recommended that radial plytyres be rotated from side to side. NOTE: Aluminium wheels which are not supplied asOriginal Equipment should not be mixed onthe same vehicle with the original steel wheels.
WARNING:When rotating the 215/45 R17 tyres, ensure tofollow the"ROTATION" direction marked onthe sidewall of tyres.When rotating the tyres of the left and right,separate the wheel from the tyre and then re-assemble them. However, it is acceptablethat the steel spare wheel be used in conjunc-tion with Original Equipment aluminiumwheels since the offset of both wheels iscompatible. Radial and cross ply tyres shouldnot be mixed on the same vehicle.
I050A01GK-EAT TYRE CHAINSTyre chains should be installed on the front wheels. Be sure that the chains are installed inaccordance with the manufacturer's instructions.Refer to the following information.

SI060A1-E TYRE BALANCINGIncorrect tyre balance will cause steering vibra- tion and uneven tyre wear. The vehicle tyres arebalanced during production but may need furtherbalancing throughout the life of the tyres.It is recommended that the tyres be balanced onthe car for best results and that the tyres arebalanced whenever they have been removedfrom the wheel for repair.

SI060B1-E TYRE REPLACEMENT Tyres must be replaced when the wear indica- tors appear as a solid bar across the tyre tread.At this point, the remaining tread depth will beapproximately 1.6 mm. In addition to this, the tyremust be replaced if any portion of the tread hasbecome bald or if there are any lumps, bulges ordeep cuts in the sidewalls or tread. SI060D1-E WHEEL REPLACEMENT The original wheels may only be replaced with Hyundai Approved Wheels. WARNING: Driving on worn or defective tyres is danger-ous. Worn tyres may cause loss of steeringcontrol and a serious deterioration of brakingefficiency. Defective tyres may cause vibra-tion and loss of control through blow outs. Tyres of different size, construction or tread pattern should not be intermixed on the sameaxle. Radial and cross ply tyres should not beused on the same vehicle.The use of tyres and wheels of non approvedsizes can be dangerous.
Replacement tyres must be of the recommendedsize and rating and should be of the same manu-facture and tread pattern on each axle.
