Hyundai Santa Fe: Tires and wheels / Tire care
For proper maintenance, safety, and maximum fuel economy, you must always maintain
recommended tire inflation pressures and stay within the load limits and weight
distribution recommended for your vehicle.
All specifications (sizes and pressures) can be found on a label attached to
the driver’s side center pillar.
WARNING
Tire failure may cause loss of vehicle control resulting in an accident. To

Other information:
Four Wheel Drive (4WD) delivers engine power to front and rear wheels for maximum

Description
Continuous Variable Valve Timing (CVVT) system advances or retards the valve
timing of the intake and exhaust valve in accordance with the ECM control signal
which is calculated by the engine speed and load.
By controlling CVVT, the valve over-lap or under-lap occurs, which makes better
fuel economy and reduces exhaust gases (NOx, HC) and improves engine performance
through reduction of pumping loss, internal EGR effect, improvement of combustion
stability, improvement of volumetric efficiency, and increase of expansion work...
