• Do not take this vehicle through an
automatic car wash whilst the com-
pact spare tyre is installed.
• Do not use tyre chains on the com-
pact spare tyre. Because of the
smaller size, a tyre chain will not fit
properly. This could damage the
vehicle and result in loss of the
chain.
• The compact spare tyre should not
be installed on the front axle if the
vehicle must be driven in snow or
on ice.
• Do not use the compact spare tyre
on any other vehicle because this
tyre has been designed especially
for your vehicle.
• The compact spare tyre’s tread life
is shorter than a regular tyre.
Inspect your compact spare tyre
regularly and replace worn com-
pact spare tyres with the same size
and design, mounted on the same
wheel.• The compact spare tyre should not
be used on any other wheels, nor
should standard tyres, snow tyres,
wheel covers or trim rings be used
with the compact spare wheel. If
such use is attempted, damage to
these items or other car compo-
nents may occur.
• Do not use more than one compact
spare tyre at a time.
• Do not tow a trailer whilst the com-
pact spare tyre is installed.

What to do in an emergency
IF YOU HAVE A FLAT TYRE (WITH TYREMOBILITYKIT, IF EQUIPPED)
Please read the instructions before
using the TyreMobilityKit.
(1) Compressor
(2) Sealant bottleIntroduction
With the TyreMobilityKit you stay mobile
even after experiencing a tyre puncture.
The system of compressor and sealing
compound effectively and comfortably
seals most punctures in a passenger
car tyre caused by nails or similar
objects and reinflates the tyre. After you
ensure that the tyre is properly sealed
you can drive cautiously on the tyre (up
to 120 miles (200 km)) at a max. speed
of 50 mph (80 km/h) in order to reach a
vehicle or tyre dealer to have the tyre
replaced.It is possible that some tyres, especial-
ly with larger punctures or damage to
the sidewall, cannot be sealed com-
pletely. Air pressure loss in the tyre may
adversely affect tyre performance.
For this reason, you should avoid
abrupt steering or other driving
manoeuvres, especially if the vehicle is
heavily loaded or if a trailer is in use.
The TyreMobilityKit is not designed or
intended as a permanent tyre repair
method and is to be used for one tyre
only. This instruction shows you step by
step how to temporarily seal the punc-
ture simply and reliably. Read the sec-
tion "Notes on the safe use of the
TyreMobilityKit".
OYN069010OYN069018
WARNING
Do not use the TyreMobilityKit if
a tyre is severely damaged by
driving run flat or with insuffi-
cient air pressure. Only punc-
tured areas located within the
tread region of the tyre can be
sealed using the TyreMobilityKit.
Damage to the sidewall must not
be repaired due to safety rea-
sons.

Distributing the sealant
Immediately drive approximately 2
miles (3 km) to evenly distribute the
sealant in the tyre.Producing the tyre inflation pres-
sure
1) After driving approximately 2 miles
(3 km), stop at a suitable location.
2) Connect connection hose 9 of the
compressor directly to the tyre
valve.
3) Connect between compressor
and the vehicle power outlet using
the cable and connectors.
4) Adjust the tyre inflation pressure
to 32 psi (2.2 bar). With the igni-
tion switched on, proceed as fol-
lows.
- To increase the inflation pres-
sure:Switch on the compressor,
position I. To check the current
inflation pressure setting, briefly
switch off the compressor.- To reduce the inflation pres-
sure:Press the button 8 on the
compressor.
WARNING
Do not let the compressor run for
more than 10 minutes, otherwise
the device will overheat and may
be damaged.
WARNING
The tyre inflation pressure must
be at least 32 psi (2.2 bar). If it is
not, do not continue driving.
Call for road side service or
towing.
CAUTION
Do not exceed a speed of 35
mph (60 km/h). If possible, do
not fall below a speed of 12 mph
(20 km/h).
Whilst driving, if you experience
any unusual vibration, ride dis-
turbance or noise, reduce your
speed and drive with caution
until you can safely pull off of
the side of the road.
Call for road side service or tow-
ing.
CAUTION
If the inflation pressure is not
maintained, drive the vehicle a
second time, refer to
Distributing the sealant. Then
repeat steps 1 to 4.
Use of the TyreMobilityKit may
be ineffectual for tyre damage
larger than approximately 0.16
in (4 mm).
Please contact the nearest
HYUNDAI A/S centre, or a work-
shop that works according to
HYUNDAI repair procedures
with correspondingly trained
personnel if the tyre cannot be
made roadworthy with the
TyreMobilityKit.

TYRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM (TPMS) (IF EQUIPPED)
(1) Low tyre pressure telltale /
TPMS malfunction indicator
(2) Low tyre pressure position tell-
tale (Shown on the LCD display)
Each tyre, including the spare (if pro-
vided), should be checked monthly
when cold and inflated to the inflation
pressure recommended by the vehi-
cle manufacturer on the vehicle plac-
ard or tyre inflation pressure label. (If
your vehicle has tyres of a different
size than the size indicated on the
vehicle placard or tyre inflation pres-
sure label, you should determine the
proper tyre inflation pressure for
those tyres.)As an added safety feature, your
vehicle has been equipped with a
tyre pressure monitoring system
(TPMS) that illuminates a low tyre
pressure telltale when one or more
of your tyres is significantly under-
inflated. Accordingly, when the low
tyre pressure telltale illuminates, you
should stop and check your tyres as
soon as possible, and inflate them to
the proper pressure. Driving on a sig-
nificantly under-inflated tyre causes
the tyre to overheat and can lead to
tyre failure. Under-inflation also
reduces fuel efficiency and tyre tread
life, and may affect the vehicle’s han-
dling and stopping ability.
Please note that the TPMS is not a
substitute for proper tyre mainte-
nance, and it is the driver’s responsi-
bility to maintain correct tyre pres-
sure, even if under-inflation has not
reached the level to trigger illumina-
tion of the TPMS low tyre pressure
telltale.Your vehicle has also been equipped
with a TPMS malfunction indicator to
indicate when the system is not
operating properly. The TPMS mal-
function indicator is combined with
the low tyre pressure telltale. When
the system detects a malfunction,
the telltale will flash for approximate-
ly 1 minute and then remain continu-
ously illuminated. This sequence will
continue upon subsequent vehicle
start-ups as long as the malfunction
exists. When the TPMS malfunction
indicator remains illuminated after
blinking for approximately 1 minute,
the system may not be able to detect
or signal low tyre pressure as intend-
ed. TPMS malfunctions may occur
for a variety of reasons, including the
installation of replacement or alter-
nate tyres or wheels on the vehicle
that prevent the TPMS from function-
ing properly. Always check the
TPMS malfunction telltale after
replacing one or more tyres or
wheels on your vehicle to ensure that
the replacement or alternate tyres
and wheels allow the TPMS to con-
tinue to function properly.

What to do in an emergency
✽NOTICE
Take your vehicle to the nearest
HYUNDAI authorised repairer and
have the system checked if any of
the below happens:
1.The low tyre pressure telltale/
TPMS malfunction indicator and
low tyre pressure position telltale
do not illuminate.
2. The TPMS malfunction indicator
remains illuminated after blinking
for approximately 1 minute.
3. The Low tyre pressure position
telltale remains illuminated.
Low tyre pressure tell-
tale
Low tyre pressure posi-
tion telltale
When the tyre pressure monitoring
system warning indicators are illumi-
nated, one or more of your tyres is
significantly under-inflated. The low
tyre pressure position telltale light
will indicate which tyre is significant-
ly under-inflated by illuminating the
corresponding position light.
If either telltale illuminates, immedi-
ately reduce your speed, avoid hard
cornering and anticipate increased
stopping distances. You should stop
and check your tyres as soon as pos-
sible. Inflate the tyres to the proper
pressure as indicated on the vehi-
cle’s placard or tyre inflation pres-
sure label located on the driver’s side
centre pillar outer panel. If you can-
not reach a service station or if the
tyre cannot hold the newly added air,
replace the low pressure tyre with a
spare tyre.Then the TPMS malfunction indicator
may blink for approximately 1 minute
and then remain continuously illumi-
nated and the low tyre pressure posi-
tion telltale will remain on after
restarting and about 20 minutes of
continuous driving before you have
the low pressure tyre repaired and
replaced on the vehicle.
CAUTION
In winter or cold weather, the
low tyre pressure telltale may
illuminate if the tyre pressure
was adjusted to the recom-
mended tyre inflation pressure
in warm weather. It does not
mean your TPMS is malfunction-
ing because the decreased tem-
perature leads to a proportional
lowering of tyre pressure.
When you drive your vehicle
from a warm area to a cold area
or from a cold area to a warm
area, or the outside temperature
is greatly higher or lower, you
should check the tyre inflation
pressure and adjust the tyres to
the recommended tyre inflation
pressure.

WARNING- Maintenance
work
• Performing maintenance work on
a vehicle can be dangerous. You
can be seriously injured whilst
performing some maintenance
procedures. If you lack sufficient
knowledge and experience or the
proper tools and equipment to do
the work, have it done by a
HYUNDAI authorised repairer.
• Working under the bonnet with
the engine running is dangerous.
It becomes even more dangerous
when you wear jewelry or loose
clothing. These can become
entangled in moving parts and
result in injury. Therefore, if you
must run the engine whilst work-
ing under the bonnet, make cer-
tain that you remove all jewelry
(especially rings, bracelets,
watches, and necklaces) and all
neckties, scarves, and similar
loose clothing before getting
near the engine or cooling fans.
WARNING- Diesel Engine
Never work on injection system
with the engine running or within
30 seconds after shutting off the
engine. High-pressure pump, rail,
injectors and high-pressure pipes
are subject to high pressure even
after the engine stopped. The fuel
jet produced by fuel leaks may
cause serious injury, if it touches
the body. People using pacemakers
should not move than 30cm closer
to the ECU or wiring harness within
the engine room whilst engine is
running, since the high currents in
the electronic engine control sys-
tem produce considerable magnet-
ic fields.

Tyre replacement
If the tyre is worn evenly, a tread
wear indicator will appear as a solid
band across the tread. This shows
there is less than 1.6 mm (1/16 inch)
of tread left on the tyre. Replace the
tyre when this happens.
Do not wait for the band to appear
across the entire tread before replac-
ing the tyre.
OEN076053
Tread wear indicatorWARNING - Replacing
tyres
To reduce the chance or serious
or fatal injuries from an acci-
dent caused by tyre failure or
loss of vehicle control:
• Replace tyres that are worn,
show uneven wear, or are
damaged. Worn tyres can
cause loss of braking effec-
tiveness, steering control, and
traction.
• Do not drive your vehicle with
too little or too much pressure
in your tyres. This can lead to
uneven wear and tyre failure.
• When replacing tyres, never
mix radial and bias-ply tyres
on the same car. You must
replace all tyres (including the
spare) if moving from radial to
bias-ply tyres.
(Continued)(Continued)
• Using tyres and wheel other
than the recommended sizes
could cause unusual handling
characteristics and poor vehi-
cle control, resulting in a seri-
ous accident.
• Wheels that do not meet
HYUNDAI’s specifications
may fit poorly and result in
damage to the vehicle or
unusual handling and poor
vehicle control.
• The ABS works by comparing
the speed of the wheels. Tyre
size can affect wheel speed.
When replacing tyres, all 4
tyres must use the same size
originally supplied with the
vehicle. Using tyres of a dif-
ferent size can cause the ABS
(Anti-lock Brake System) and
ESP (Electronic Stability
Program) to work irregularly.
