G140D01A-AATChecking the Compressor Drive Belt
When the air conditioning is being used regular-
ly, the compressor drive belt tension should be
checked at least once a month with the engine
turned off.
To check the drive belt tension, press down on
the belt halfway between the engine crankshaft
and compressor pulleys. Pressing with your
finger, you should not be able to deflect this belt
anymore than 1/3 of an inch. If you have the
instruments to check it, with a force of 22 lb.
(98N), the deflection should be 0.315 inches
(approx. 8.0 mm). If the belt is too loose, have
it adjusted by your Hyundai dealer.CRANK PULLEY

CHANGING THE AIR FILTER
(For Evaporator and Blower Unit)

unit behind the glove box.
It helps to decrease pollutants from entering the
car and to filter the air.

NUMBER (VIN)
The vehicle identification number (VIN) is the
number used in registering your car and in all
legal matters pertaining to its ownership, etc. It
can be found in four different places on your
car:
1. On the bulkhead between the engine and
passenger compartments.
2. On the left top side of the instrument panel
where it can be seen by looking down through
the windshield.
3. Door edge post
4. On the lower side of the center pillar outer
panel.

TIRE INFORMATION
The tires supplied on your new Hyundai are
chosen to provide the best performance for
normal driving.
I030A02A-AATRECOMMENDED INFLATION
PRESSURES
The tire label located in the glove box gives the
tire pressures recommended for your car.
These pressures were chosen to provide the
most satisfactory combination of ride comfort,
tire wear and stability under normal conditions.

CONSUMER INFORMATION & REPORTING SAFETY DEFECTS 8- 3
!CAUTION:Always observe the following:
o Check pressures when the tires are
cold. That is, after the car has been
parked for at least three hours and
hasn't been driven more than one mile
or 1.6 km since starting up.
o Check the pressure of your spare tire
each time you check the pressure of
other tires.
I040A01A-AATSNOW 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 handling 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 glove
box, or up to the maximum pressure shown on
the tire sidewall whichever is less.
Do not drive faster than the speed limit when
your car is equipped with snow tires.
I050A03A-AATTIRE CHAINS
Tire chains, if necessary, should be installed on
the front wheels. Be sure that the chains are
installed in accordance with the manufacturer's
instructions.
To minimize tire and chain wear, do not con-
tinue 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 (30 km/h).
o Use the SAE "S" class or wire & plastic
chains.
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 pressures should be checked at least
monthly. Proper tire inflation pressures should
be maintained for these reasons:
o Lower-than-recommended tire pressures
cause uneven tread wear and poor handling.
o Higher-than-recommended tire pressures in-
crease the chance of damage from impacts
and cause uneven tread wear.
