Roof rack (if equipped)
If the vehicle has a roof rack, you can
load cargo on top of your vehicle.
Information
If the vehicle is equipped with a sun
roof, be sure not to position cargo onto
the roof rack in such a way that it
could interfere with sunroof operation.
•When carrying cargo on the roof
rack, take the necessary precau
tions to make sure the cargo does
not damage the roof of the vehicle.
•When carrying large objects on the
roof rack, make sure they do not
exceed the overall roof length or
width.
NOTICE
i
ExtERioR FEAtURES
•The following specification is the
maximum weight that can be
loaded onto the roof rack.
Distribute the load as evenly as
possible onto the roof rack and
secure the load firmly.
Loading cargo or luggage inexcess of the specified weightlimit on the roof rack may damage your vehicle.

WARNING
(Continued)
•The vehicle centre of gravity will
be higher when items are loaded
onto the roof rack. Avoid sudden
starts, braking, sharp turns, abrupt
manoeuvres or high speeds that
may result in loss of vehicle control
or rollover resulting in an accident.
•Always drive slowly and turn cor
ners carefully when carrying items
on the roof rack. Severe wind
updrafts, caused by passing vehi
cles or natural causes, can cause
sudden upward pressure on items
loaded on the roof rack. This is
especially true when carrying
large, flat items such as wood pan
els or mattresses. This could
cause the items to fall off the roof
rack and cause damage to your
vehicle or others around you.
•To prevent damage or loss of
cargo whilst driving, check fre
quently before or whilst driving to
make sure the items on the roof
rack are securely fastened.

Maintenance
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.
Replacing tires
To reduce the chance or serious
or fatal injuries from an accident
caused by tire failure or loss of
vehicle control:
•Replace tires that are worn,
show uneven wear, or are dam
aged. Worn tires can cause loss
of braking effectiveness, steer
ing control, and traction.
•Do not drive your vehicle with
too little or too much pressure in
your tires. This can lead to
uneven wear and tire failure.
•When replacing tires, never mix
radial and biasply tires on the
same car. You must replace all
tires (including the spare) if mov
ing from radial to biasply tires.
(Continued)
(Continued)
WARNING •Using tires and wheel other than
the recommended sizes could
cause unusual handling charac
teristics and poor vehicle con
trol, resulting in a serious acci
dent.
•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.
•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 original
ly supplied with the vehicle.
Using tires of a different size can
cause the ABS (Antilock Brake
System) and ESC (Electronic
Stability Control) to work irregu
larly. (if equipped)
A wheel that is not the correct size
may adversely affect wheel and
bearing life, braking and stopping
abilities, handling characteristics,
ground clearance, bodytotire
clearance, snow chain clearance,
speedometer and odometer cali
bration, headlight aim and bumper
height.

Maintenance
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. Slow down whenever there
is rain, snow or ice on the road, to
reduce the possibility of losing con
trol of the vehicle.
Tire maintenance
In addition to proper inflation, correct
wheel alignment helps decrease tire
wear. If you find a tire worn unevenly,
have your dealer check the wheelalignment.
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.
Tire sidewall labeling
This information identifies and
describes the fundamental charac
teristics of the tire and also provides
the tire identification number (TIN)
for safety standard certification. The
TIN can be used to identify the tire in
case of a recall.
1. Manufacturer or brand name
Manufacturer or Brand name is shown.
2. Tire size designation
A tire’s sidewall is marked with a tire
size designation. You will need this
information when selecting replace
ment tires for your car. The following
explains what the letters and num
bers in the tire size designationmean.
Example tire size designation:
(These numbers are provided as an
example only; your tire size designa
tor could vary depending on your
vehicle.)
205/65R16 95H
205 Tire width in millimeters.
65 Aspect ratio. The tire’s chapter height as a percentage of its width.
R Tire construction code (Radial).
16 Rim diameter in inches.
95 Load Index, a numerical code associated with the maximum
load the tire can carry.
H Speed Rating Symbol. See the speed rating chart in this chapter
for additional information.

Wheel size designation
Wheels are also marked with impor
tant information that you need if you
ever have to replace one. The follow
ing explains what the letters and
numbers in the wheel size designa
tion mean.
Example wheel size designation:
6.0JX16
6.0 Rim width in inches.
J Rim contour designation.
16 Rim diameter in inches.
Tire speed ratings
The chart below lists many of the dif
ferent speed ratings currently being
used for passenger car tires. The
speed rating is part of the tire size
designation on the sidewall of the
tire. This symbol corresponds to that
tire's designed maximum safe oper
ating speed.
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 1615 represents
that the tire was produced in the 16th
week of 2015.
S 180 km/h (112 mph) T 190 km/h (118 mph)
H 210 km/h (130 mph) V 240 km/h (149 mph) Z Above 240 km/h (149 mph)
W *270 km/h (168 mph)
Maximum SpeedSpeedRatingSymbol
* W speed rating is subcategory of the Z speed rating.

4. Tire ply composition and materi
al
The number of layers or plies of rub
bercoated 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 beltedbias ply con
struction.
5. Maximum permissible inflation
pressure
This number is the greatest amount
of air pressure that should be put in
the tire. Do not exceed the maximum
permissible inflation pressure. Refer
to the Tire and Loading Information
label for recommended inflation
pressure.
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.
7. Uniform tire quality grading
Quality grades can be found where
applicable on the tire sidewall
between tread shoulder and maxi
mum chapter width.
For example:
TREAD wear 200
TRACTION AA
TEMPERATURE A
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 conditions can accel
erate the aging process. Failure
to follow this warning could cause
sudden tire failure, which could
lead to a loss of control and an
accident involving serious injury or
death.
