instructions on the container. Window
washer anti-freeze is available from
Hyundai dealers and most auto parts
outlets. Do not use engine coolant or
other types of anti-freeze as these
may damage the finish.
Under some conditions, snow and ice
can build up under the fenders and
interfere with the steering. When driv-
ing in severe winter conditions where
this may happen, you should periodi-
cally check underneath the car to be
sure the movement of the front wheels
and the steering components is not
obstructed.
1. Tires:
Adjust the tire inflation pressures to
specification. Low tire inflation pres-
sures will result in overheating and
possible failure of the tires.
Avoid using worn or damaged tires
whichmayresultinreducedtractionor
tire failure.
NOTE:
Never exceed the maximum tire in-
flation pressure shown on the tires.

Don't Let Your Parking Brake
Freeze
Depending on the severity of the
weather where you drive your car, you
should carry appropriate emergency
equipment. Some of the items you
may want to carry include tire chains,
tow straps or chains, flashlight, emer-
gency flares, sand, a shovel, jumper
cables, a window scraper, gloves,
ground cloth, coveralls, a blanket, etc.
2. Fuel, engine coolant and en-
gine oil:
High speed travel consumes 1.5 times
more fuel than urban motoring. Do not
forget to check both engine coolant
and engine oil.
Under some conditions your parking
brake can freeze in the engaged posi-
tion. This is most likely to happen
