WARNING - Tyre inflation
Overinflation or underinflation
can reduce tyre life, adversely
affect vehicle handling, and
lead to sudden tyre failure. This
could result in loss of vehicle
control and potential injury.
CAUTION - Tyre pressure
Always observe the following:
 Check tyre pressure when the tyres are cold. (After vehiclehas been parked for at leastthree hours or hasn't beendriven more than 1 mile (1.6km) since startup.)
 Check the pressure of your spare tyre each time youcheck the pressure of othertyres.
 Never overload your vehicle. Be careful not to overload avehicle luggage rack if yourvehicle is equipped with one.
 Worn, old tyres can cause accidents. If your tread isbadly worn, or if your tyreshave been damaged, replacethem.
CAUTION
 Underinflation also results in excessive wear, poor handlingand reduced fuel economy.Wheel deformation also ispossible. Keep your tyre pres-sures at the proper levels. If atyre frequently needs refilling,we recommend that the sys-tem be checked by a HYUNDAIauthorised repairer.
 Overinflation produces a harsh ride, excessive wear atthe centre of the tyre tread,and a greater possibility ofdamage from road hazards.
CAUTION
 Warm tyres normally exceed recommended cold tyre pres-sures by 4 to 6 psi (0.28 to 0.41bar). Do not release air fromwarm tyres to adjust the pres-sure or the tyres will be under-inflated.
 Be sure to reinstall the tyre inflation valve caps. Withoutthe valve cap, dirt or moisturecould get into the valve coreand cause air leakage. If avalve cap is missing, install anew one as soon as possible.
