2009 HYUNDAI TUCSON brake light

38WHAT TO DO IN AN EMERGENCY
!
!
!
This device complies with Part 15 of
the FCC rules.
Operation is subject to the following two
conditions:
1. This device may not cause harmful
interference, and
2. This device must accept any interfer-
ence received, including interference
that may cause undesired operation. WARNING - TPMS
o The TPMS cannot alert you to se-
vere and sudden tire damage
caused by external factors such as
nails or road debris.
o If you feel any vehicle instability,
immediately take your foot off the
accelerator, apply the brakes
gradually and with light force, and
slowly move to a safe position off
the road.
WARNING:
Changes or modifications not ex-
pressly approved by the party re-
sponsible for compliance could void
the user’s authority to operate the
equipment. 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 (1.6
km) 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 pressure.
A cold tire means the vehicle has been
sitting for 3 hours and driven for less
than 1 mile (1.6 km) in that 3 hour
period.
CAUTION:
Do not use any tire sealant if your
vehicle is equipped with a Tire Pres-
sure Monitoring System. The liquid
sealant can damage the tire pressure
sensors.
In order for the system to correctly
monitor tires for under-inflation,
there should be a total of exactly 4
sensors fitted to each of the four
driven wheel positions.
!
WARNING - Protecting TPMS
Tampering with, modifying, or dis-
abling the Tire Pressure Monitoring
System (TPMS) components may in-
terfere with the system's ability to warn
the driver of low tire pressure condi-
tions and/or TPMS malfunctions. There should be no other sensors in
the vehicle including spare tire po-
sition since this could cause the
system to monitor the wrong sen-
sors.
