PRECAUTIONS REGARDING UNAUTHORIZED MODIFICATION & ALTERATION (II)
Do not use the nonstandard tires, wheels, and other re-
lated parts.
Installing nonstandard tires such as tires with greater width
than prescribed can wear out the power delivery system
or friction-damage related parts. In addition, other prob-
lems such as increase of fuel consumption and braking
distance, vehicle's shudder, and decrease of steering
power can all degrade the vehicle's performance. The
speedometer and odometer can also become inaccurate.
The vehicle with automatic transmission may have the
shock in changing the speed.
Do not use duplicate key
A duplicate key might cause malfunction to the ignition key
cylinder and deter the ignition motor to return to the origi-
nal state. If so, electronic circuitry can be damaged and
may ignite from the ignition motor's continuing rotation.
Do not equip the sunroof or color glasses at your
discretion.
If you install a sunroof by cutting the vehicle's roof, rust and
leakage may occur in the cut part. Installing color glasses
to block ultraviolet rays and better appearance may cause
leakage and other many problems.

Do not equip the vehicle with bumper guards sold in the
market.
Installing bumper guard or other guard bars that are be-
ing sold in the market may cause problems in parking and
stopping due to the extended length of vehicle, and in-
crease in fuel cost due to additional vehicle weight, and
rusting may occur in the holes for equipping the guards.
And because of the absence of shock absorber in the
bumper guard, even accidents during low-speed driving will
be much serious compared with the damage that unmodi-
fied cars might sustain.
Do not modify or replace the vehicle flooring or the seats
at your discretion.
When replacing the interior flooring of vehicle with lami-
nated paper
To improve the comfort of cushion and to facilitate the clean-
ing of the vehicle, some drivers replace the flooring with
laminated paper after removing the seats. However, this
may cause damage to the various electronic system con-
trol units and wiring. This also may hinder the function of
the seat rail that enables for the seat to move forward and
backward. In this case, the locking system to fix the loca-
tion of seats may malfunction, which might lead to a seri-
ous accident if the loose seats tilt forward or backward dur-
ing an uphill climb or downhill descent.
