Lower-than-recommended  tire   pressures
cause  uneven tread  wear  and poor  han-
dling.
Higher-than-recommended  tire  pressures
increase  the chance  of damage  from  im-
pacts and cause uneven tread wear.

SNOW TIRES
TIRE ROTATION
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;  other-
wise, poor handling may result.
CAUTION:
Always observe the following:
Snow tires should carry 28 kPa (4 psi) more air
pressure than the pressure  recommended for
the standard tires on the tire label on the driver
side  center  pillar  outer  panel,  or  up  to  the
maximum pressure shown on the tire sidewall
whichever is less.
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 driv-
en more  than 1.6 km  or one mile  since
starting up.
Do not drive faster than the speed  limit  when
your car is equipped with snow  tires.

o
Check  the pressure  of  your spare  tire
each  time  you  check  the  pressure  of
other tires.
Never overload  your car. Be  especially
careful about  overloading  if you  equip
your car with  a luggage rack or car  top
carrier.
Tires should be rotated every 10,000 km (6,000
miles). If you notice  that tires are wearing un-
evenly between rotations, have the car checked
by  a  Hyundai dealer  so  the  cause  may  be
corrected.

TIRE CHAINS
Tire chains, if necessary, should be installed on
the front wheels. Be sure that the chains are the
proper size and that they are installed in accor-
dance with the manufacturer's instructions.
After rotating, adjust the tire pressures and be
sure to check wheel nut tightness.
WARNING:
Do not mix bias-ply and radial-ply tires un-
der any circumstances.
This may cause  dangerous handling char-
acteristics.
To minimize tire  and chain wear,  do not con-
tinue to use tire chains when they are no longer
needed.
WARNING:
When driving on roads covered  with snow
or ice, drive at less than 30 km/h  (20 mph).
