Information
The spare tire is not equipped with a
tire pressure sensor.
In winter or cold weather, the Low
Tire Pressure Telltale may be illu-
minated if the tire pressure was
adjusted to the recommended tire
inflation pressure in warm weather.
It does not mean your TPMS is mal-
functioning because the decreased
temperature leads to a proportion-
al lowering of tire 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 tire inflation pressure and
adjust the tires to the recommend-
ed tire inflation pressure.
TPMS Malfunction
Indicator
The TPMS Malfunction Indicator will
illuminate after it blinks for approxi-
mately one minute when there is a
problem with the Tire Pressure
Monitoring System.
Have the system checked by an
authorized Dealer of Genesis Brand
Products as soon as possible.
Information
If there is a malfunction with the
TPMS, the individual tire pressures in
the cluster LCD display will not be
available. Have the system checked by
an authorized Dealer of Genesis
Brand Products as soon as possible.
The TPMS Malfunction Indicator
may illuminate after blinking for
one minute if the vehicle is near
electric power supply cables or
radio transmitters such as police
stations, government and public
offices, broadcasting stations,
military installations, airports,
transmitting towers, etc.
Additionally, the TPMS Malfunction
Indicator may illuminate if snow
chains are used or electronic
devices such as computers, charg-
ers, remote starters, navigation,
etc. This may interfere with normal
operation of the TPMS.

What to do in an emergency
Your vehicle has metric threads
on the studs and lug nuts. Make
certain during tire changing that
the same nuts that were removed
are reinstalled. If you have to
replace your lug nuts make sure
they have metric threads to avoid
damaging the studs and ensure
the wheel is properly secured to
the hub. Consult an authorized
Dealer of Genesis Brand Products
for assistance.
If any of the equipment such as the
jack, lug nuts, studs, or other equip-
ment is damaged or in poor condi-
tion, do not attempt to change the
tire and call for assistance.
Use of compact spare tires
Compact spare tires are designed for
emergency use only. Drive carefully
on the compact spare tire and
always follow the safety precautions.
NOTICE
To prevent compact spare tire
failure and loss of control pos-
sibly resulting in an accident:
Use the compact spare tire only in an emergency.
NEVER operate your vehicle over 50 mph (80 km/h).
Do not exceed the vehicle's maximum load rating or the
load carrying capacity shown
on the sidewall of the com-
pact spare tire.
Do not use the compact spare tire continuously. Repair or
replace the original tire as
soon as possible to avoid fail-
ure of the compact spare tire.
On AWD vehicles, do not use the compact spare tire contin-
uously. It may damage to the
AWD driving system or the
differential. Temporarily use
the compact spare tire for
emergency only.
