CAUTION - Tire pressure
Always observe the following:
•
Underinflation also results in
excessive wear, poor handling
and reduced fuel economy.
Wheel deformation also is possi-
ble. Keep your tire pressures at
the proper levels. If a tire fre-
quently needs refilling, we recom-
mend that the system be checked
by an authorized HYUNDAI deal-
er.
• Warm tires normally exceed rec-
ommended cold tire pressures by
28 to 41 kPa (4 to 6 psi). Do not
release air from warm tires to
adjust the pressure or the tires
will be underinflated.
• Check tire pressure when the
tires are cold. (After vehicle has
been parked for at least three
hours or hasn't been driven more
than 1.6 km (one mile) since start-
up.)
•
Be sure to reinstall the tire infla-
tion valve caps. Without the valve
cap, dirt or moisture could get
into the valve core and cause air
leakage. If a valve cap is missing,
install a new one as soon as pos-
sible.
• Check the pressure of your spare
tire each time you check the pres-
sure of other tires.
•
Overinflation produces a harsh
ride, excessive wear at the center
of the tire tread, and a greater
possibility of damage from road
hazards.
•
Never overload your vehicle. Be
careful not to overload a vehicle
luggage rack if your vehicle is
equipped with one.
•
Worn, old tires can cause acci-
dents. If your tread is badly worn,
or if your tires have been dam-
aged, replace them.
WARNING - Tire inflation
Overinflation or underinflation can
reduce tire life, adversely affect
vehicle handling, and lead to sud-
den tire failure. This could result in
loss of vehicle control and poten-
tial injury.
