!
o Using tires and wheels other than
the recommended sizes could
cause unusual handling charac-
teristics and poor vehicle control,
resulting in a serious accident.
o Wheels that do not meet Hyundai's
specifications may fit poorly and
result in damage to the vehicle or
unusual handling and poor ve-
hicle control.WARNING:
!
Tires degrade over time, even when
they are not being used. Regardless
of the remaining tread, it is recom-
mended that tires tread, It is recom-
mended that tires generally be re-
placed after six (6) years of normal
service. Heat caused by not climates
or frequent high loading conditions
can accelerate the aging process.
Failure to follow this Warning can
result in sudden tire failure, which
could lead to a loss of control and an
accident involving serious injury or
death.WARNING:I090C01CM-AATTire Aging
I090B01CM-AATTire Maintenance
In addition to proper inflation, correct
wheel alignment helps to decrease tire
wear. If you find a tire is worn unevenly,
have your dealer check the wheel align-
ment.
When you have new tires installed,
make sure they are balanced. This will
increase vehicle ride comfort and tire
life. Additionally, a tire should always
be rebalanced if it is removed from the
wheel.
