!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.

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 repair, it
should be rebalanced before being reinstalled
on the car.
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 when-
ever there is rain, snow or ice on the road.
I090A01A-AATWHEN TO REPLACE TIRESI060A02A-AATTIRE ROTATION
Tires should be rotated every 7,500 miles (12,000
km). If you notice that tires are wearing un-
evenly between rotations, 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 the wheel nut torque.
HEF-241
WARNING:o Do not use the temporary spare tire for
tire rotation.
o Do not mix bias ply and radial ply tires
under any circumstances. This may cause
unusual handling characteristics that
could result in death, serious injury, or
property damage.
!
Wear indicator 0.06 in. (1.6 mm)
HGK248
The original tires on your car have tread wear
indicators. 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.

CONSUMER INFORMATION & REPORTING SAFETY DEFECTS 8- 5
WARNING:o Driving on worn-out tires is dangerous!
Worn-out tires can cause loss of brak-
ing 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 Using tires and wheels of other than
the recommended sizes could cause
unusual handling characteristics that
could cause death, serious injury, or
property damage.
o Wheels that do not meet Hyundai's
dimensional specifications may fit
poorly and result in damage to the
vehicle, including broken wheel studs.

A Hyundai Shop Manual is available from your
authorized Hyundai dealer. It's written for pro-
fessional technicians, but is simple enough for
most mechanically-inclined owners to under-
stand.
