36WHAT TO DO IN AN EMERGENCY
Low Tire Pressure Telltale
When the tire pressure monitoring sys-
tem warning telltale is illuminated, one
or more of your tires is significantly
under-inflated.
Immediately reduce your speed, avoid
hard cornering and anticipate increased
stopping distances. You should stop
and check your tires as soon as pos-
sible. Inflate the tires to the proper
pressure as indicated on the vehicle’s
placard or tire inflation pressure label
located on the driver’s side center
pillar outer panel. If you cannot reach
a service station or if the tire cannot
hold the newly added air, replace the
low pressure tire with the temporary
spare tire. Then the TPMS malfunc-
tion indicator or the Low Tire Pressure
telltale may turn on after restarting and
about 20 minutes of continuous driving
before you have the low-pressure tire
repaired and replaced on the vehicle.
As an added safety feature, your ve-
hicle has been equipped with a Tire
Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)
that illuminates a low tire pressure
telltale when one or more of your tires
is significantly under-inflated. Accord-
ingly, when the low tire pressure tell-
tale illuminates, you should stop and
check your tires as soon as possible,
and inflate them to the proper pres-
sure. Driving on a significantly under-
inflated tire causes the tire to overheat
and can lead to tire failure. Under-
inflation also reduces fuel efficiency
and tire tread life, and may affect the
vehicle’s handling and stopping ability.
Please note that the TPMS is not a
substitute for proper tire maintenance,
and it is the driver’s responsibility to
maintain correct tire pressure, even if
under-inflation has not reached the
level to trigger illumination of the TPMS
low tire pressure telltale.Your vehicle has also been equipped
with a TPMS malfunction indicator to
indicate when the system is not oper-
ating properly. The TPMS malfunction
indicator is provided by a separate
telltale, which displays the symbol
"TPMS" when illuminated. When the
malfunction indicator is illuminated, the
system may not be able to detect or
signal low tire pressure as intended.
TPMS malfunctions may occur for a
variety of reasons, including the instal-
lation of replacement or alternate tires
or wheels on the vehicle that prevent
the TPMS from functioning properly.
Always check the TPMS malfunction
indicator after replacing one or more
tires or wheels on your vehicle to
ensure that the replacement or alter-
nate tires and wheels allow the TPMS
to continue to function properly.

38WHAT TO DO IN AN EMERGENCYo If there is a failed tire sensor, it is
possible for the TPMS to tempo-
rarily learn a replacement sensor
if closely driven to another ve-
hicle that is also equipped with
TPMS. In rare cases, this may
temporarily delay the TPMS mal-
function indicator from turning
on.
Changing a tire with TPMS
If you have a flat tire, the Low Tire
Pressure telltale will turn on. Have the
flat tire repaired by an authorized
Hyundai dealer as soon as possible or
replace the flat tire with the temporary
spare tire.
NOTE:
NEVER use a puncture-repairing
agent to repair and/or inflate a low
pressure tire. If used, you will have
to replace the tire pressure sensor.Each wheel is equipped with a tire
pressure sensor mounted inside the
tire behind the valve stem. You must
use TPMS specific wheels. It is rec-
ommended that you always have your
tires serviced by an authorized Hyundai
dealer as soon as possible.
After you replace the low pressure tire
with the spare tire, the TPMS malfunc-
tion indicator or the Low Tire Pressure
telltale may illuminate after restarting
and about 20 minutes of continuous
driving.
Once the low pressure tire is re-in-
flated to the recommended pressure
and installed on the vehicle, the TPMS
malfunction indicator and the low tire
pressure telltale will be extinguished.
If the low pressure and TPMS mal-
function indicators are not extinguished
after about 20 minutes of continuous
driving, please visit an authorized
Hyundai dealer.
You may not be able to identify a low
tire by simply looking at it. Always use
a good quality tire pressure gauge to
measure the tire's inflation pressure.Please note that a tire that is hot (from
being driven) will have a higher pres-
sure measurement than a tire that is
cold (from sitting stationary for at least
3 hours and driven less than 1 mile
during that 3 hour period). Allow the
tire to cool before measuring the infla-
tion pressure.
Always be sure the tire is cold before
inflating to the recommended pres-
sure.
A cold tire means the vehicle has been
sitting for 3 hours and driven for less
than 1 mile in that 3 hour period.

WHAT TO DO IN AN EMERGENCY
!
CAUTION:
o Do not use snow chains with
your temporary spare tire.
o Do not use more than one tempo-
rary spare tire at a time.
!
4. As the temporary spare tire is spe-
cifically designed for your car, it
should not be used on any other
vehicle.
5. The temporary spare tire should not
be used on any other wheels, nor
should standard tires, snow tires,
wheel covers or trim rings be used
with the temporary spare wheel. If
such use is attempted, damage to
these items or other car compo-
nents may occur.
6. The temporary spare tire pressure
should be checked once a month
while the tire is stored.WARNING:
The temporary spare tire is for emer-
gency use only. Do not operate
your vehicle on this temporary spare
at speeds over 50 mph (80 km/h).
The original tire should be repaired
or replaced as soon as is possible
to avoid failure of the spare possi-
bly leading to personal injury or
death.
SPARE TIRESpare Tire PressureD040A02MC-AATTEMPORARY SPARE TIRE
The following instructions for the tem-
porary spare tire should be observed:
1. Check inflation pressure as soon as
is practical after installing the spare
tire, and adjust to the specified
pressure. The tire pressure should
be periodically checked and main-
tained at the specified pressure while
the tire is stored.Tire Size

2. The spare tire should only be used
temporarily and should be returned
to the luggage compartment as soon
as the original tire can be repaired or
replaced.
3. Continuous use at speeds of over
50 mph (80 km/h) is not recom-
mended.

IF YOU HAVE A FLAT TIRED050A01A-AATIf a tire goes flat while you are driving:
1. Take your foot off the accelerator
pedal and let the car slow down while
driving straight ahead. Do not apply
the brakes immediately or attempt to
pull off the road as this may cause a
loss of control. When the car has
slowed to such a speed that it is safe
to do so, brake carefully and pull off
the road. Drive off the road as far as
possible and park on firm, level
ground. If you are on a divided high-
way, do not park in the median area
between the two traffic lanes.
2. When the car is stopped, turn on
your emergency hazard flashers,
set the parking brake and put the
transaxle in "P" (automatic) or re-
verse (manual transaxle).
3.
Have all passengers get out of the car.
Be sure they all get out on the side of
the car that is away from traffic.
4. When changing a flat tire, follow the
instructions provided on the next
description.
D040B01A-AATHandling the Spare Tire
Remove the installation bolt to remove
the spare tire. To replace the spare tire
in its storage compartment, tighten the
bolt firmly with your fingers until there
is no more play in the spare tire.

CORROSION PREVENTION AND APPEARANCE CARE6
E040D01A-AATCleaning the Seat BeltsTo clean the seat belts, use a cloth or
sponge with mild soap or detergent and
warm water. Do not use strong deter-
gents, dye, bleach or abrasive materials
on the seat belts as this may weaken the
fabric.
While cleaning the belts, inspect them for
excessive wear, cuts, fraying or other
signs of damage and replace them if
necessary.E040E01A-AATCleaning the WindowsYou may use any household window
cleaner on the windows. However, when
cleaning the inside of the rear window be
careful not to damage the rear window
defroster wiring.
E040A01A-AATTo Clean the Vinyl UpholsteryTo clean the vinyl upholstery, first remove
loose dirt and dust with a vacuum cleaner.
Then apply a solution of mild soap or
detergent and water using a clean sponge
or soft cloth. Allow this to stay on the
surface to loosen the dirt, then wipe with
a clean damp sponge or cloth. If all the
dirt stains are not removed, repeat this
procedure until the upholstery is clean.
Do not use gasoline, solvent, paint thin-
ner or other strong cleaners.
E040C01A-AATCleaning the CarpetsUse a foam-type carpet cleaner. Clean-
ers of this type are available in aerosol
cans in liquid form or powder. Read the
instructions and follow them exactly. Us-
ing a vacuum cleaner with the appropri-
ate attachment, remove as much dirt from
the carpets as possible. Apply the foam
following the manufacturer's directions,
then rub in overlapping circles. Do not
add water. These cleaners work best
when the carpet is kept as dry as pos-
sible.

VEHICLE MAINTENANCE REQUIREMENTS2
MAINTENANCE INTERVALSF010B01A-AATMaintenance RequirementsThe maintenance required for your
Hyundai can be divided into three main
areas:
o Specified scheduled procedures
o General checks
o Do-it-yourself maintenanceF010A01A-AATService RequirementsTo ensure that you receive the greatest
number of miles of satisfying operation
from your Hyundai, certain maintenance
procedures must be performed. Although
careful design and engineering have re-
duced these to a minimum, those that are
required are of the utmost importance.
It is your responsibility to have these
maintenance procedures performed to
comply with the terms of the warranties
covering your new Hyundai. The Owner's
Handbook supplied with your new ve-
hicle provides further information about
these warranties.
F010D01A-AATGeneral ChecksThese are the regular checks you should
perform when you drive your Hyundai or
you fill the fuel tank. A list of these items
will be found on page 6-3.
F010C01A-AATSpecified Scheduled ProceduresThese are the procedures such as in-
spections, adjustments and replacements
that are listed in the maintenance charts
starting on page 5-4. These procedures
must be performed at the intervals shown
in the maintenance schedule to assure
that your warranty remains in effect. Al-
though it is strongly recommended that
they be performed by the factory-trained
or distributor-trained technicians at your
Hyundai dealer, these procedures may
be performed at any qualified service
facility.
It is suggested that genuine Hyundai
service parts be used for any required
repairs or replacements. Other parts of
equivalent quality such as engine oil,
engine coolant, manual or auto transaxle
oil, brake fluid and so on which are not
supplied by Hyundai Motor Company or
its distributor may be used without affect-
ing your warranty coverage but you should
always be sure these are equivalent to
the quality of the original Hyundai parts.
Your Owner's Handbook provides further
information about your warranty cover-
age.
F010E01A-AATDo-It-Yourself MaintenanceIf you are mechanically inclined, own a
few tools that are required and want to
take the time to do so, you can inspect
and service a number of items. For more
information about doing it yourself, see
Section 6.
