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 oneanda
half times (1) 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.
Traction AA, A, B & C
The traction grades, from highest to
lowest, are AA, A, B and C. Those
grades represent the tire’s ability to
stop on wet pavement measured
under controlled conditions on spec
ified government test surfaces of
asphalt and concrete. A tire marked
C may have poor traction perform
ance.
Temperature A, B & C
The temperature grades are A (the
highest), B, and C, representing the
tire’s resistance to the generation of
heat and its ability to dissipate heat
when tested under controlled condi
tions on a specified indoor laboratory
test wheel.
Sustained high temperature can
cause the material of the tire to
degenerate and reduce tire life, and
excessive temperature can lead to
sudden tire failure. Grades B and A
represent higher levels of perform
ance on the laboratory test wheel
than the minimum required by law.
The traction grade assigned to this
tire is based on straightahead
braking traction tests, and does
not include acceleration, corner
ing, hydroplaning, or peak traction
characteristics.

Maintenance
Low aspect ratio tire
(if equipped)
The low aspect ratio tires, of which
aspect ratio is below 50, are
equipped with for the sporty look.
Riding with high aspect ratio tires
may be uncomfortable with unpleas
ant noises, because the low aspect
ratio tires are optimized for handling
and breaking.The sidewall of the low aspect ratio
tire is thinner than the high aspect
ratio tire. Thus, the wheel and the tire
may be easily damaged. Thus, follow
the below instructions.
Cautiously drive the vehicle on a
rough road or off the road.
Otherwise, the tires and wheels
may be damaged. After driving
those areas, inspect the tires and
wheels.
Slowly drive the vehicle to pass
over a pothole, speed bump, man
hole, or curb stone. Otherwise, the
tires and wheels may be damaged.
Upon having an impact on the tire,
we recommend you to have the
tires inspected by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
Inspect the tires every 3,000 km to
prevent damage.
NOTICE
Tire temperature
The temperature grade for this tire
is established for a tire that is
properly inflated and not over
loaded. Excessive speed, under
inflation, or excessive loading,
either separately or in combina
tion, can cause heat buildup and
sudden tire failure. This can cause
loss of vehicle control and serious
injury or death.
WARNING

7-62
Maintenance
•It is difficult to recognize tire dam
age only with eyes. However, we
recommend you to have the tire
checked or replaced upon detect
ing even the slightest tire damage.
The tire damage may leak air from
the tire.
•Tire damage, caused by driving on
a rough road, pothole, manhole or
curb stone, or off the road, is not
covered by the manufacturer’s
warranty.
•For further information about the
tire, refer to the label on the tire
sidewall.

FuSES
A vehicle’s electrical system is pro
tected from electrical overload dam
age by fuses.
This vehicle has 2 fuse panels, one
located in the driver’s side panel bol
ster, the other in the engine compart
ment near the battery.
If any of your vehicle’s lights, acces
sories, or controls do not work, check
the appropriate circuit fuse. If a fuse
has blown, the element inside the
fuse will be melted.
If the electrical system does not
work, first check the driver’s side
fuse panel.
Before replacing a blown fuse, dis
connect the negative battery cable.
Always replace a blown fuse with
one of the same rating.
If the replacement fuse blows, this
indicates an electrical problem. Avoid
using the system involved and imme
diately consult an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
Three kinds of fuses are used: blade
type for lower amperage rating, SlowBlow type and multi fuse for higheramperage ratings.
Do not use a screwdriver or any
other metal object to remove fuses
because it may cause a short circuit
and damage the system.
Information
The actual fuse/relay panel label may
differ from equipped items. i

Fuse replacement
•Never replace a fuse with any
thing but another fuse of the
same rating.
•A higher capacity fuse could
cause damage and possibly a
fire.
•Never install a wire or aluminum
foil instead of the proper fuse
even as a temporary repair. It
may cause extensive wiring
damage and a possible fire.
WARNING

Maintenance
•When replacing a blown fuse or
relay with a new one, make sure
the new fuse or relay fits tightly into
the clips. The incomplete fastening
fuse or relay may cause the vehi
cle wiring and electric systems
damage and a possible fire.
•Do not remove fuses, relays and
terminals fastened with bolts or
nuts. The fuses, relays and termi
nals may be fastened incomplete
ly, and it may cause a possible fire.
If fuses, relays and terminals fas
tened with bolts or nuts are blown,
consult with an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
•Do not input any other objects
except fuses or relays into
fuse/relay terminals such as a driv
er or wiring. It may cause contact
failure and system malfunction.

•Check the blown fuse with the fuse
information on the fuse box cover.
•Replace the blown fuse on the
same place after turning off the
ignition switch and all electric
switches and disconnecting the
negative battery cable.

3. Pull the suspected fuse straight
out. Use the fuse puller provided in
the engine compar tment fusepanel.
4. Check the removed fuse; replace it if it is blown.
5. Push in a new fuse of the same rating, and make sure it fits tightly
in the clips.
If it fits loosely, we recommend that
you consult an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer.
If you do not have a spare, use a fuse of the same rating from a circuityou may not need for operating thevehicle, such as the cigarette lighterfuse.
If the electrical components do not
work and the fuses are OK, check
the fuse panel in the engine com
partment. If a fuse is blown, it must
be replaced. Fuse switch
Always, put the fuse switch at the ON position.
If you move the switch to the OFF
position, some items such as audio
and digital clock must be reset and
transmitter (or smart key and burglar
alarm) may not work properly.
Always place the fuse switch in the
ON position while driving the vehicle.
