tain highly corrosive SULFURIC ACID. Do not allow battery acid to contact your skin, eyes, cloth- ing or paint finish.

If any electrolyte gets into your eyes, flush your eyes with clean water for at least 15 minutes and get immediate medical attention. If possible, continue to apply water with a sponge or cloth until medical attention is received.

WARNING: If electrolyte gets on your skin, thoroughly wash the contacted area. If you feel a pain or a burning sensation, get medical attention immediately.

Wear eye protection when charg- ing or working near a battery. Always provide ventilation when working in an enclosed space.

o When lifting a plastic-cased battery, ex- cessive pressure on the case may cause battery acid to leak, resulting in personal injury. Lift with a battery carrier or with your hands on opposite corners.

o Never attempt to charge the battery when

the battery cables are connected.

o The electrical ignition system works with

high voltage. Never touch these components with the engine running or the ignition switched on.

WARNING:

The cooling fan is controlled by engine coolant temperature and may sometimes operate even when the engine is not run- ning. Use extreme caution when working near the blades of the cooling fan, so that you are not injured by a rotating fan blade. As the engine coolant temperature de- creases the fan will automatically shut off. This is a normal condition.

7 EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEMS EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEMS

H010A01NF-AAT Your Hyundai is equipped with an emission control system to meet all emission regulations. There are three emission control systems which are as follows.

(1) Crankcase emission control system (2) Evaporative emission control system (3) Exhaust emission control system

In order to assure the proper function of the emission control systems, it is recommended that you have your car inspected and main- tained by an authorized Hyundai dealer in ac- cordance with the maintenance schedule in this manual.

Caution for the Inspection and Maintenance Test (With Electronic Stability Control (ESC) system)

o To prevent the vehicle from misfiring during dynamometer testing, turn the Electronic Stability Control (ESC) sys- tem off by pressing the ESC switch.

o After dynamometer testing is completed, turn the ESC system back on by pressing the ESC switch again.

H010B01A-AAT 1. Crankcase Emission Control System

The positive crankcase ventilation system is employed to prevent air pollution caused by blow-by gases being emitted from the crank- case. This system supplies fresh filtered air to the crankcase through the air intake hose. Inside the crankcase, the fresh air mixes with blow-by gases, which then pass through the PCV valve into the induction system.

H010C01S-AAT 2. Evaporative Emission Control (Includ- ing ORVR: Onboard Refueling Vapor Recovery) System

The Evaporative Emission Control System is designed to prevent fuel vapors from escaping into the atmosphere. (The ORVR system is designed to allow the vapors from the fuel tank to be loaded into a canister while refueling at the gas station, pre- venting the escape of fuel vapors into the atmosphere.)

Canister

Fuel vapors generated inside the fuel tank are absorbed and stored in the onboard canister. When the engine is running, the fuel vapors absorbed in the canister are drawn into the surge tank through the purge control solenoid valve.

Purge Control Solenoid Valve (PCSV)

The purge control solenoid valve is controlled by the Engine Control Module (ECM); when the engine coolant temperature is low during idling, the PCSV closes so that evaporated fuel is not taken into the engine. After the engine warms- up during ordinary driving, the PCSV opens to introduce evaporated fuel to the engine.

H010D01A-AAT 3. Exhaust Emission Control

System

The Exhaust Emission Control System is a highly effective system which controls exhaust emissions while maintaining good vehicle per- formance.

EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEMS

WARNING:

o Remember that your Hyundai dealer is

your best source of assistance.

o Do not stop your Hyundai over any com- bustible material such as grass, paper, leaves or rags. These materials might contact the hot catalytic converter and a fire might result.

CATALYTIC CONVERTER

H020A01A-AAT

Catalytic Converter

H020A01NF

All Hyundai vehicles are equipped with a mono- lith type three-way catalytic converter to re- duce the carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons and nitrogen oxides contained in the exhaust gas. Exhaust gases passing through the catalytic converter cause it to operate at a very high temperature. The introduction of large amounts of unburned gasoline into the exhaust may cause the catalytic converter to overheat and create a fire hazard. This risk may be reduced by observing the following:

WARNING:

o Use unleaded fuel only. o Maintain the engine in good operating condition. Extremely high catalytic con- verter temperatures can result from im- proper operation of the electrical, igni- tion or multiport electronic fuel injec- tion.

o If your engine stalls, pings, knocks, or is hard to start, have your Hyundai dealer inspect and repair the problem as soon as possible.

o Avoid driving with a very low fuel level. Running out of gasoline may cause the engine to misfire and result in damage to the catalytic converter.

o Avoid idling the engine for periods

longer than 10 minutes.

o The vehicle should not be pushed or pulled to get started. This may cause the catalytic converter to overheat and cre- ate a fire hazard.

o Do not touch the catalytic converter or any other part of the exhaust system while the catalytic converter is hot. Shut off the engine, wait for at least one hour before touching the catalytic converter or any other part of the exhaust system.

I030A01NF-A Tire label located on the driver's side of the center pillar outer panel gives the cold tire pressures recommended for your vehicle with the original tire size, the number of people that can be in your vehicle and vehicle capacity weight.

CONSUMER INFORMATION, REPORTING SAFETY DEFECTS & BINDING ARBITRATION OF WARRANTY CLAIMS

! WARNING:

o Inspect your tires frequently for proper inflation as well as wear and damage. Always use a tire pressure gauge.

o Tires with too much or too little pressure wear unevenly causing poor handling, loss of vehicle control, and sudden tire failure leading to accidents, injuries, and even death. The recommended cold tire pressure for your vehicle can be found in this manual and on the tire label located on the driver's side of the center pillar. o Worn tires can cause accidents. Replace tires that are worn, show uneven wear, or are damaged. See page 8-11.

o Remember to check the pressure of your spare tire. Hyundai recom- mends that you check the spare every time you check the pressure of the other tires on your vehicle.

I030A03NF-A

I030A04NF-A

These pressures were chosen to pro- vide 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:

8 CONSUMER INFORMATION, REPORTING SAFETY DEFECTS & BINDING ARBITRATION OF WARRANTY CLAIMS

NOTE: o Underinflation also results in ex- cessive wear, poor handling and reduced fuel economy. Wheel de- formation also is possible. Keep your tire pressures at the proper levels. If a tire frequently needs refilling, have it checked by your Hyundai Dealer.

o Overinflation produces a harsh ride, excessive wear at the center of the tire tread, and a greater possibility of damage from road hazards.

WARNING:

Overinflation or underinflation can reduce the tire life, adversely affect vehicle handling, and lead to sud- den tire failure. This could rusult in loss of vehicle control and potential injury.

CAUTION:

Always observe the following:

o Check pressures when the tires are cold. (After the vehicle has been parked for at least three hours or hasn't been driven more than 1
mile (1.6 km) since starting up.)

o Check the pressure of your spare tire each time you check the pres- sure of other tires.

o Worn, old tires can cause acci- dents. If your tread is badly worn, or if your tires have been dam- aged, replace them.

I035A01JM-AAT

CHECKING TIRE INFLATION PRES- SURE Check your tires once a month or more. Also, check the tire pressure of the spare tire.

How to Check Use a good quality gauge to check tire pressure. You cannot tell if your tires are properly inflated simply by looking at them. Radial tires may look properly inflated even when they're underinflated. Check the tire's inflation pressure when the tires are cold. - "Cold" means your vehicle has been sitting for at least three hours or driven no more than 1
mile (1.6 km).

Remove the valve cap from the tire valve stem. Press the tire gauge firmly onto the valve to get a pressure mea- surement. If the cold tire inflation pres- sure matches the recommended pres- sure on the tire and loading information label, no further adjustment is neces- sary. If the pressure is low, add air until you reach the recommended amount. If you overfill the tire, release air by pushing on the metal stem in the center of the tire valve. Recheck the tire pres- sure with the tire gauge. Be sure to put the valve caps back on the valve stems. They help prevent leaks by keeping out dirt and moisture.

I030B01NF-AAT TIRE SIDEWALL LABELING

5, 6

I030B04JM

Federal law requires tire manufacturers to place standardized information on the sidewall of all tires. This information identifies and describes the fundamen- tal characteristics of the tire and also provides the tire identification number (TIN) for safety standard certification. The TIN can be used to identify the tire in case of a recall.

1. Manufacturer or Brand name

o Manufacturer or Brand name is

shown. 2. Tire size

(example: P215/60R16 94V) o The "P" indicates the tire is de-

signed for passenger vehicles.

o Three-digit number (215): This num- ber gives the width in millimeters of the tire from sidewall edge to sidewall edge.

o Two-digit number (60): This num- ber, known as the aspect ratio, gives the tire's ratio of height to width.

o R: The "R" stands for radial. o Two-digit number (16): This num- ber is the wheel or rim diameter in inches.

o Two digit number (94): This num- ber is the tire's load index. It is a measurement of how much weight each tire can support.

8 CONSUMER INFORMATION, REPORTING SAFETY DEFECTS & BINDING ARBITRATION OF WARRANTY CLAIMS

o V: Speed Rating. The speed rating denotes the speed at which a tire is designed to be driven for extended periods of time. The ratings range from "A" to "Z" (98 to 186 MPH). 3. TIN (Tire Identification Number) for new tire (example: DOT XX XX XXX XXXX) o DOT: Abbreviation for the "Depart- ment of Transportation". The sym- bol can be placed above, below or to the left or right of the Tire Iden- tification Number. It indicates the tire is in compliance with the U.S. Department of Transportation Mo- tor Vehicle Safety Standards.

o 1st two-digit code: Manufacturer's

identification mark

o 2nd two-digit code: Tire size o 3rd three-digit code: Tire type code

(Optional)

o 4th four-digit code: Date of Manu-

facture

o Four numbers represent the week and year the tire was built. For example, the numbers 3105 means the 31st week of 2005.

4. Tire ply composition and material The number of layers or plies of rubbercoated fabric in the tire. Tire manufacturers also must indicate the materials in the tire, which in- clude steel, nylon, polyester, and others. The letter "R" means radial ply construction; the letter "D" means diagonal or bias ply construction; and the letter "B" means belted-bias ply construction.

5. Maximum permissible inflation

pressure This number is the greatest amount of air pressure that should be put in the tire. Do not exceed the maximum permissible inflation pressure. Refer to the Tire and Loading Information label for recommended inflation pres- sure.

6. Maximum load rating

This number indicates the maximum load in kilograms and pounds that can be carried by the tire. When replacing the tires on the vehicle, always use a tire that has the same load rating as the factory installed tire.

7. Uniform Tire Quality Grading

(UTQG): Tire manufacturers are required to grade tires based on three perfor- mance factors: treadwear, traction and temperature resistance. For more information, see Uniform Tire Qual- ity Grading on page 8-14.

ALL SEASON TIRES Hyundai specifies all season tires on some models to provide good perfor- mance for use all year round, including snowy and icy road conditions. All sea- son tires are identified by ALL SEASON and/or M+S (Mud and Snow) on the tire sidewall. Snow tires have better snow traction than all season tires an may be more appropriate in some areas.

I040A01O-AAT

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 han- dling 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's side of the center pillar , or up to the maximum pressure shown on the tire sidewall, whichever is less. Do not drive faster than 75 mph (120
km/h) when your car is equipped with snow tires.

I050A04Y-AAT

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 accordance with the manufacturer's instructions. To minimize tire and chain wear, do not continue to use tire chains when they are no longer needed.

8 CONSUMER INFORMATION, REPORTING SAFETY DEFECTS & BINDING ARBITRATION OF WARRANTY CLAIMS 10

! WARNING:

o When driving on roads covered with snow or ice, drive at less than 20 mph (30 km/h).

o Use the SAE "S" class or wire &

plastic chains.

o If you have noise caused by chains contacting the body, retighten the chain to avoid contact with the vehicle body.

o To prevent body damage, retighten the chains after driving 0.3~0.6
miles.

o Don't use a tire chains on a vehicle equipped with aluminium wheels. If it is unavoidable use wire-type chains.

o Use wire chains less than 15mm to prevent damage to the chain's con- nection.

I060A02A-AAT

TIRE ROTATION

I060A02NF Tires should be rotated every 7,500
miles (12,000 km). If you notice that tires are wearing unevenly between ro- tations, 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 the wheel nut torque.

WARNING:

o Do not use the temporary spare

tire for tire rotation.

o Do not mix bias ply and radial ply tires under any circumstances. This may cause unusual handling characteristics that could result in death, serious injury, or property damage.

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 re- pair, it should be rebalanced before being reinstalled on the car.

I080A01A-AAT

TIRE 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 replaced when tread wear indicators appear. To reduce the possibility of losing control, slow down whenever there is rain, snow or ice on the road.

WHEN TO REPLACE TIRES

0.06 in. (1.6 mm)

Tread wear indicator

HNF5015
The original tires on your car have tread wear indicators. The location of tread wear indicators is shown by the "TWI" or " " marks, etc. 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.

! WARNING:

To reduce the chance or serious or fatal injuries from an accident caused by tire failure or loss of vehicle con- trol: o Replace tires that are worn, show uneven wear, or are damaged. Worn tires can cause loss of brak- ing effectiveness, steering con- trol, and traction.

o Do not drive your vehicle with too little or too much pressure in your tires. This can lead to uneven wear and tire failure.

o When replacing tires, never mix radial and bias-ply tires on the same car. You must replace all tires (including the spare) if mov- ing from radial to bias-ply tires.

8 CONSUMER INFORMATION, REPORTING SAFETY DEFECTS & BINDING ARBITRATION OF WARRANTY CLAIMS 12

WARNING:

o Using tires and wheel other than the recommended sizes could cause unusual handling charac- teristics and poor vehicle control, resulting in a serious accident.

o Wheels that do not meet Hyundai's specifications may fit poorly and result in damage to the vehicle or unusual handling and poor ve- hicle control.

I090B02JM-AAT

TIRE MAINTENANCE In addition to proper inflation, correct wheel alignment helps to decrease tire wear. If you find a tire is worn unevenly, have your dealer check the wheel align- ment.

When you have new tires installed, make sure they are balanced. This will increase vehicle ride comfort and tire life. Additionally, a tire shoud always be rebalanced if it is removed from the wheel.

WARNING:

o Underinflated or overinflated tires can cause poor handling, loss of vehicle control, and sudden tire failure leading to accidents, inju- ries, and even death. Always check tires are properly inflated before driving. Refer to pages 2-22 and 8- 3 for proper tire pressures and further information.

o Driving on tires with no or insuffi- cient tread is dangerous. Worn- out tires can result in loss of ve- hicle control, collisions, and in- jury and even death. Worn-out tires should be replaced as soon as possible and should never be used for driving. Always check tire tread before driving your car. Refer to this page for further infor- mation and tread limits.

CONSUMER INFORMATION

I130A01A-AAT This consumer information has been prepared in accordance with regulations issued by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration of the U.S. Department of Transportation. It provides the purchasers and/or prospective purchasers of Hyundai automobiles with infor- mation on uniform tire quality grading. Your Hyundai dealer will help answer any questions you may have as you read this information.

Traction AA, A, B, C - The traction grades, from highest to lowest, are AA, A, B, and C. Those grades represent the tire's ability to stop on wet pave- ment as measured under controlled conditions on specified government test surfaces of asphalt and concrete. A tire marked C may have poor traction per- formance.

! WARNING:

The traction grade assigned to this tire is based on straight-ahead brak- ing traction tests, and does not in- clude acceleration, cornering, hy- droplaning, or peak traction charac- teristics.

I130B04A-AAT

Tire Quality Grading Department of Transportation quality grades - All passenger vehicle tires must conform to Federal Safety Stan- dards in addition to these grades. These quality grades are molded on the sidewall.

Treadwear - The treadwear grade is a comparative rating based on the wear rate of the tire when tested under con- trolled conditions on a specified gov- ernment test course. For example, a tire graded 150 would wear one and a half (1 - 1/2) times as well on the government course as a tire graded 100. The relative performance of tires depends upon the actual conditions of their use, however, and may depart significantly from the norm due to varia- tions in driving habits, service prac- tices and differences in road character- istics and climate.

CONSUMER INFORMATION, REPORTING SAFETY DEFECTS & BINDING ARBITRATION OF WARRANTY CLAIMS

15

Temperature A, B, C - The tempera- ture grades are A (the highest), B, and C, representing the tire's resistance to the generation of heat and its ability to dissipate heat when tested under con- trolled conditions on a specified indoor laboratory test wheel. Sustained high temperature can cause the material of the tire to degenerate and reduce tire life, and excessive temperature can lead to sudden tire failure. The grade C corresponds to a level of performance which all passenger car tires must meet under the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 109. Grades B and A represent higher levels of performance on the laboratory test wheel than the minimum required by law.

! WARNING:

The temperature grade for this tire is established for a tire that is properly inflated and not overloaded. Exces- sive speed, underinflation, or exces- sive loading, either separately or in combination, can cause heat buildup and possible tire failure.

Uniform Tire Quality Grading - Qual- ity grades can be found on the tire sidewall between the tread shoulder and the maximum section width. For example : Treadwear 200 Traction AA Tempera- ture A
