3WHAT TO DO IN AN EMERGENCY

!
6. If you cannot find the cause of the overheat-
ing, wait until the engine temperature has
returned to normal. Then, if the engine cool-
ant has been lost, carefully add water to the
reservoir (Page 6-8) to bring the fluid level in
the reservoir up to the halfway mark.
7. Proceed with caution, keeping alert for fur-
ther signs of overheating. If overheating
happens again, call a Hyundai dealer for
assistance.
CAUTION:Serious loss of engine coolant indicates
there is a leak in the cooling system and this
should be checked as soon as possible by
a Hyundai dealer.
TEMPORARY SPARE TIRE
D040A01GK-AAT
The following instructions for the temporary
spare tire should be observed:
1. Check inflation pressure as soon as practi-
cal after installing the spare tire, and adjust
to the specified pressure. The tire pressure
should be periodically checked and main-
tained at the specified pressure while the tire
is stored.
Tire Size
Inflation Pressure
T125/70R 16
420 kPa(60 psi)6. The temporary spare tire pressure should
be checked once a month while the tire is
stored.
2. The spare tire should only be used tempo-
rarily and should be returned to the luggage
compartment as soon as the original tire can
be repaired or replaced.
3. Continuous use at speeds of over 80 km/h
(50 mph) is not recommended.
4. As the temporary spare tire is specifically
designed for your car, it should not be used
on any other vehicle.
5. The temporary spare tire should not be used
on any other wheels, nor should standard
tires, snow tires, wheel covers or trim rings
be used with the temporary spare wheel. If
such use is attempted, damage to these
items or other car components may occur. Spare Tire Pressure
CAUTION:o Do not use snow chains with your tem-
porary spare tire.
o Do not use more than one temporary
spare tire at a time.

SNOW 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 driver
side center piller outer panel or up to the maxi-
mum pressure shown on the tire sidewall which-
ever is less.
Do not drive faster than 75 mph (120 km/h)
when your car is equipped with snow tires.
I030A02GK-AAT
RECOMMENDED INFLATION PRES-
SURES
The tire label located on the driver side center
pillar outer panel gives the tire pressures rec-
ommended for your vehicle.These pressures were chosen to provide the
most satisfactory combination of ride comfort,
tire wear and stability under normal conditions.
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
increase the chance of damage from im-
pacts and cause uneven tread wear.
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.HGK092

TIRE ROTATION
Tires should be rotated every 6,000 miles
(10,000 km). If you notice that tires are wearing
unevenly 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 wheel nut torque.
WARNING:Do not mix bias-ply and radial-ply tires
under any circumstances. This may cause
dangerous handling characteristics.

TIRE 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. Refer to the following information.
WARNING:o When driving on roads covered with
snow or ice, drive at less than 20 mph (30
km/h).
o Use tire chains less than 0.39 in. (10mm)
for "16, and "17 tires.
o Avoid sudden stop and turn tires.
o Tighten firmly to avoid contact with the
vertical body, if you have noise caused
by chaws contacting the body, remove
the chains for damage protection. To minimize tire and chain wear, do not continue
to use tire chains when they are no longer
needed.Tire size

!WARNING:When rotating the 215/45 R17 tires, the tires
must be mount following the "ROTATION"
direction marked on the sidewall of the
tires.
If rotating the tires from the left side to the
right side and from the right side to the left
side, separate the wheel from the tire and
then remount them.

I080A01A-AATTIRE 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 re-
placed when tread wear indicators appear. To
reduce the possibility of losing control, slow
down whenever there is rain, snow or ice on the
road.
I070A01A-AAT
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.
!
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.I090A01A-AAT
WHEN TO REPLACE TIRES
HGK248
Wear indicator 0.06 in. (1.6 mm)WARNING:o Using tires and wheels of other than the
recommended sizes could cause un-
usual handling characteristics that could
cause death, serious injury, or property
damage.
o Wheels that do not meet Hyundai's di-
mensional specifications may fit poorly
and result in damage to the vehicle,
including broken wheel studs.
!WARNING:Driving on worn-out tires is dangerous!
Worn-out tires can cause loss of braking
effectiveness, steering control and trac-
tion. 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.
