Tire chains
Since the sidewalls of radial tires are
thinner than other types of tires, they
may be damaged by mounting some
types of tire chains on them. Therefore,
the use of snow tires is recommended
instead of tire chains. Do not mount tire
chains on vehicles equipped with alumi-
num wheels; if possible use a wire type
chain. If tire chains must be used, use
genuine HYUNDAI parts or the equivalent
specified for your vehicle and install the
tire chain after reviewing the instructions
provided with the tire chains. Damage
to your vehicle caused by improper tire
chain use is not covered by your vehicle
manufacturer's warranty.
NOTICE
If your vehicle has 215/45R17 or
205/55R17 size tires do not use tire
chain; they can damage your vehicle
(wheel, suspension and body).
WARNING
The use of tire chains may adversely
affect vehicle handling:
• Drive less than 30 km/h (20 mph)
or the chain manufacturer's recom-
mended speed limit, whichever is
lower.
• Drive carefully and avoid bumps,
holes, sharp turns, and other road
hazards, which may cause the vehicle
to bounce.
• Avoid sharp turns or locked wheel

braking.
i
Information
• Install tire chains on the front tires.
It should be noted that installing tire
chains on the tires will provide a greater
driving force, but will not prevent side
skids.
• Do not install studded tires without first
checking local and municipal regulations
for possible restrictions against their use.
