sory you can temporarily get along without (the radio or cigarette light- er, for example). Always rememberto replace the borrowed fuse. CAUTION:
A burned-out fuse indicates thatthere is a problem in the electricalcircuit. If you replace a fuse and it blows as soon as the accessory is turned on, the problem is seriousand should be referred to a Hyun- dai dealer for diagnosis and repair. Never replace a fuse with anythingexcept a fuse with the same or a lower amperage rating. A higher capacity fuse could cause damageand create a fire hazard. NOTE: See page 6-36 for the fuse panel descriptions.

4. Replace the blown fuse by pressing a new fuse of the same rating into place. The fuse should be a snug fit. If it is not, have the fuse clip repairedor replaced by a Hyundai dealer. If you do not have a spare fuse, you may be able to borrow a fuse of thesame or lower rating from an acces-

I100A01TB-GAT SPARE TIRE AND TOOLS
Your Hyundai is delivered with the fol- lowing: Spare tire and wheel Wheel nut wrench, Wrench bar, Screw driver,Jack, Towing hook HTB224
WARNING:
o Driving on worn-out tires is dan- gerous! Worn-out tires can cause
loss of braking effectiveness, steering control and traction. When replacing tires, never mixradial and bias-ply tires on the same car. If you replace radial tires with bias-ply tires, they mustbe installed in sets of four.
o Using tires and wheels of other
than the recommended sizes maycause unusual handling charac- teristics that may cause death, serious injury or property dam-age.
o Tires degrade over time, even when
they are not being used. Regard-less of the remaining tread, it is recommended that tires generally be replaced after six (6) years ofnormal service. Heat caused by hot climates or frequent high load- ing conditions can accelerate theaging process. Failure to follow this warning can result in sudden tire failure, which could lead to aloss of control and an accident involving serious injury or death.
!o The ABS works by comparing thespeed of the wheels. Tire size can affect wheel speed. When replac- ing tires, all 4 tires must use the same size originally supplied withthe vehicle. Using tires of a different size can cause the ABS (Anti-lock Brake System) and ESP(ElectronicStability Program) to work irregu- larly.
