2010 Hyundai I20 Owners Manual

Driving your vehicle
WINTER DRIVING
During deceleration,  use engine braking
to the fullest extent. Sudden brake appli-
cations on snowy or icy roads may cause
skids.  You  need to  keep  sufficient  dis-
tance between the vehicle in operation in
front  and  your vehicle.  Also,  apply  the
brake  gently.   It  should  be   noted  that
installing tire  chains on  the tire  will pro-
vide greater driving force, but will not pre-
vent side skids.

Snow tires
If you mount  snow tires on your  vehicle,
make  sure  they  are  radial  tires  of the
same size and load range as the original
tires. Mount snow tires on all four wheels
to balance  your vehicle’s  handling in  all
weather  conditions.  Keep  in  mind  that
the traction provided by snow tires on dry
roads may  not be as  high as  your vehi-
cle's original equipment tires. You should
drive cautiously even when the roads are
clear. Check with the tire dealer for max-
imum speed recommendations.
V NOTICE
Tire  chains  are  not  legal  in  all  states.
Check   state   laws   before  fitting   tire
chains.

Severe weather  conditions in  the winter
result  in  greater  wear  and  other prob-
lems. To minimize the problems of winter
driving, you should  follow these sugges-
tions:
WARNING - Snow  tire size
Snow tires should  be equivalent in
size and type  to the vehicle's stan-
dard  tires.   Otherwise,  the   safety
and  handling of  your  vehicle may
be adversely affected.

Snowy or Icy conditions
To  drive  your  vehicle  in deep  snow,  it
may be necessary to use snow tires or to
install  tire chains  on your  tires.  If snow
tires are needed, it is necessary to select
tires  equivalent in  size  and type  of  the
original equipment tires. Failure  to do so
may adversely affect the safety and han-
dling of your car. Furthermore, speeding,
rapid  acceleration, sudden  brake  appli-
cations,  and sharp  turns are  potentially
very hazardous practices.
Do not  install  studded tires  without first
checking local, state and municipal regu-
lations  for  possible  restrictions  against
their use.
