4. Tire ply composition andmaterial
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.
5. Maximum permissible infla-tion 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 section width.
For example:
TREAD wear 200
TRACTION AA
TEMPERATURE A
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
sidewalls of passenger vehicle tires.
The tires available as standard or
optional equipment on your vehicle
may vary with respect to grade.

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 kilopascal (kPa).
Accessory Weight
This means the combined weight of
optional accessories. Some exam-
ples of optional accessories are
automatic transmission, power
seats, and air conditioning.
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 kilopascals (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 com-
pliance with the U.S. Department of
Transportation motor vehicle safety
standards. The DOT code includes
the Tire Identification Number (TIN),
an alphanumeric designator which
can also identify the tire manufactur-
er, 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.

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 pairs of radial-ply
tires should always be used as a set
for the front tires and a set for the
rear tires.
Longer wearing tires can be more
susceptible to irregular tread wear. It
is very important to follow the tire
rotation interval in this chapter 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.
Low Aspect Ratio Tires
Low aspect ratio tires, the aspect
ratio is lower than 50, are provided
for sporty looks.
Because low aspect ratio tires are
optimized for handling and braking,
their sidewall is a little stiffer than a
standard tire. Also low aspect ratio
tires tend to be wider and conse-
quently have a greater contact patch
with the road surface. In some
instances they may generate more
road noise compared with standard
tires.
Because the sidewall of a low
aspect ratio tire is shorter than a
standard tire, the rim of the wheel
and the tire itself is more easily
susceptible to damage. Use cau-
tion when driving and follow the
guidelines below to help minimize
damage to the wheel and tire:
- When driving on a rough road oroff road, drive cautiously because
tires and wheels may be dam-
aged. And after driving, inspect
tires and wheels.
- When passing over a pothole, speed bump, manhole, or curb
stone, drive slowly so that the
tires and wheels are not dam-
aged.
- If the tire is subjected to a severe impact, have the tire and wheel
inspected by an authorized retail-
er of Genesis Branded products.
- Inspect the tire condition and pres- sure every 1,800 miles (3,000km).
NOTICE
Do not mix bias ply and radial
ply tires under any circum-
stances. This may cause unusu-
al handling characteristics that
may cause loss of vehicle con-
trol resulting in an accident.

Caring for the leather seats - Vacuum the seat periodically toremove dust and sand on the
seat. It will prevent abrasion or
damage of the leather and main-
tain its quality.
- Wipe the natural leather seat cover often with dry or soft cloth.
- Use of a proper leather protective may prevent abrasion of the
cover and helps maintain the
color.
- Be sure to read the instructions and consult a specialist when
using leather coating or protec-
tive agents.
- Light colored(beige, cream beige) leather is easily contaminated
and the stain is noticeable. Clean
the seats frequently.
- Avoid wiping with wet cloth. It may cause the surface to crack. Cleaning the leather seats
- Remove all contaminationsinstantly. Refer to instructions
below for removal of each con-
taminant.
- Cosmetic products (sunscreen, foundation, etc.)
Apply cleansing cream on a cloth
and wipe the contaminated spot.
Wipe off the cream with a wet
cloth and remove water with a dry
cloth.
- Beverages (coffee, soft drink, etc.)
Apply a small amount of neutral
detergent and wipe until contami-
nations do not smear.
- Oil Remove oil instantly with
absorbable cloth and wipe with
stain remover used only for natu-
ral leather.
- Chewing gum Harden the gum with ice and
remove gradually.
Handling prime napa leather (if equipped)
Try to avoid excessive sunlight and
heat exposure. Excessive sunlight
and heat exposure naturally fades
and dries out napa leather, causing
wrinkles and discoloration. If the
napa leather is wet with liquid, imme-
diately clean it with lint-free cloth to
minimize damage. Do not scratch the
napa leather surface with a sharp
object. If your napa leather seat is
bright colored, it may be contaminat-
ed or stained from dyed materials
such as jeans.

Wrinkles or abrasions which
appear naturally from usage
are not covered by warranty.
Belts with metallic acces- sories, zippers or keys inside
the back pocket may damage
the seat fabric.
Make sure not to wet the seat. It may change the nature of
natural leather.
Jeans or clothes which could bleach may contaminate the
surface of the seat covering
fabric.
CAUTION

Interior wooden trim
(e.g. wax, coating compound) to
clean the interior wooden trim.
Often wipe the interior wooden trim with a lint-free, clean cloth to main-
tain the unique wooden textures for
a longer period of time.
If you spill beverage (e.g. water, coffee) over the interior wooden
trim, immediately wipe it with
clean, dry cloth.
Sharp objects (e.g. driver, knife), adhesive materials, or tapes
may damage the interior wooden
trim.
Any strong impacts may dam- age the interior wooden trim.
If the coating finish over the interior wooden trim is removed,
moisture may damage or
change wood traits.
If the interior wooden trim is damaged, you may get a splinter
from the wood surface.
Therefore, you should immedi-
ately have the damaged interior
wooden trim replaced by an
authorized retailer of Genesis
Branded products.
Cleaning the seat belt webbing
Clean the belt webbing with any mild
soap solution recommended for
cleaning upholstery or carpet. Follow
the instructions provided with the
soap. Do not bleach or re-dye the
webbing because this may weaken
the seat belt.
Cleaning the interior windowglass
If the interior glass surfaces of the
vehicle become fogged (that is, cov-
ered with an oily, greasy or waxy
film), they should be cleaned with
glass cleaner. Follow the directions
on the glass cleaner container.
Do not scrape or scratch the
inside of the rear window. This
may result in damage to the rear
window defroster grid.
