Tire pressure is displayed after a
few minutes of driving after initial
engine start up.
If tire pressure is not displayed
when the vehicle is stopped, “Drive
to display” message will appear.
After driving, check the tire pres-
sure. The displayed tire pressure values
may differ from those measured
with a tire pressure gauge.
You can change the tire pressure
unit in the User Settings Mode on

What to do in an emergency
Tire Pressure Monitoring
System
Each tire, 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 tire inflation pressure label. (If
your vehicle has tires of a different
size than the size indicated on the
vehicle placard or tire inflation pres-
sure label, you should determine the
proper tire inflation pressure for
those tires.)As an added safety feature, your
vehicle is equipped with a tire pres-
sure monitoring system (TPMS) with
LCD display that monitors continu-
ously the individual tire pressures of
each tire and illuminates when one
or more of your tires is significantly
under-inflated. When the LCD dis-
play indicates that one of your tires is
under-inflated, 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 over-
heat and can lead to tire failure.
Under-inflation also reduces fuel effi-
ciency 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 mainte-
nance, and it is the driver’s responsi-
bility to maintain correct tire pres-
sure, even if under-inflation has not
reached the level to trigger illumina-
tion of the TPMS low tire pressure
LCD display.Your vehicle has also been equipped
with a TPMS malfunction indicator
that will illuminate when the system
is not operating properly. The TPMS
malfunction indicator is combined
with the low tire pressure LCD dis-
play. When the system detects a mal-
function, the indicator lamp will flash
for approximately one minute and
then remain continuously illuminat-
ed. This sequence will continue upon
subsequent vehicle start-ups as long
as the malfunction exists.
When the malfunction indicator is
illuminated, the system may not be
able to detect or signal low tire pres-
sure as intended. TPMS malfunc-
tions may occur for a variety of rea-
sons, including the installation of
replacement or alternate tires or
wheels on the vehicle that prevent
the TPMS from functioning properly.
Always check the TPMS malfunction
LCD display after replacing one or
more tires or wheels on your vehicle
to ensure that the replacement or
alternate tires and wheels allow the
TPMS to continue to function proper-
ly. Over-inflation or under-inflation
can reduce tire life, adversely
affect vehicle handling, and
lead to sudden tire failure that
may cause loss of vehicle con-
trol resulting in an accident.

If any of the below happens, have
the system checked by an author-
ized HYUNDAI dealer.
1. The Low Tire Pressure TPMS
Malfunction Indicator does not
illuminate for 3 seconds when
the ignition switch is placed to
the ON position or engine is
running.
2. The TPMS Malfunction Indicator
remains illuminated after blink-
ing for approximately 1 minute.
3. The Low Tire Pressure LCD dis-
play remains illuminated
Low tire pressure
indicator
Low tire pressure
LCD display with
position indicator
When the tire pressure monitoring
system warning indicators are illumi-
nated and the warning message is
displayed on the cluster LCD display,
one or more of your tires is signifi-
cantly under-inflated. The LCD posi-
tion indicator will indicate which tire
is significantly under-inflated by illu-
minating the corresponding position
light.If any of your tire pressures are indi-
cated as being low, immediately
reduce your speed, avoid hard cor-
nering, 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 vehi-
cle’s placard or tire inflation pressure
label located on the driver’s side cen-
ter 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 spare tire.
The Low Tire Pressure LCD position
indicator will remain on and the
TPMS Malfunction Indicator may
blink for one minute and then remain
illuminated until you have the low
pressure tire repaired and replaced
on the vehicle.
The spare tire is not equipped with
a tire pressure sensor.

What to do in an emergency
TPMS Malfunction
Indicator
The TPMS Malfunction
Indicator will illuminate after it blinks
for approximately one minute when
there is a problem with the Tire
Pressure Monitoring System.
Have the system checked by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer as soon
as possible.
If there is a malfunction with the
TPMS, the individual tire pres-
sures in the cluster LCD display
will not be available. Have the sys-
tem checked by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer as soon as possi-
ble.
NOTICE
During winter or cold weather,
the TPMS indicator may illumi-
nate if the tire pressures were
set when the outside tempera-
ture was warm. As the outside
air becomes colder, the pres-
sure in the tires will decrease.
Similarly, if the outside air
becomes warmer, the pressure
in the tires will increase. As you
drive your vehicle, the tempera-
ture of the tires will heat up,
therefore the tire pressures will
increase. Check and adjust your
tire pressures regularly before
driving to make sure your vehi-
cle is operating at the correct
pressures as designed.
CAUTION
Low pressure damage
Significantly low tire pressure
makes the vehicle unstable and
can contribute to loss of vehicle
control and increased braking
distances.
Continued driving on low pres-
sure tires can cause the tires to
overheat and fail.
