wheel
4. Connectors and cable for power
outlet direct connection
5. Holder for the sealant bottle
6. Compressor
7. ON/OFF switch
8. Pressure gauge for displaying the
tire inflation pressure

Using the Tire Mobility Kit
1. Shake the sealant bottle (2).2. Connect the filling hose (3) to the
sealant bottle (2) in the direction of
(A) and connect the sealant bottle
to the compressor (6) in the direc-
tion of (B).
3. Ensure that the compressor is
switched OFF.
What to do in an emergency
Do not use the tire sealant after
the sealant has expired (i.e.
pasted the expiration date on
the sealant container). This can
increase the risk of tire failure.
WARNING
•Keep out of reach of children.
•Avoid contact with eyes.
•Do not swallow.
WARNING
Detach the speed restriction
label (1) from the sealant bottle
(2), and place it in a highly visi-
ble place inside the vehicle
such as on the steering wheel
to remind the driver not to drive
too fast.

What to do in an emergency
4. Unscrew the valve cap from the
valve of the defective and screw
the filling hose (3) of the sealant
bottle onto the valve.5. Plug the compressor power cord
(4) into the vehicle power outlet.
6. With the With the vehicle ON (
indicator ON), switch on the com-
pressor and let it run for approxi-
mately 5~7 minutes to fill the
sealant up to proper pressure.
(Refer to the Tire and Wheels,
chapter 8).The inflation pressure
of the tire after filling is unimpor-
tant and will be checked/corrected
later.
Be careful not to overinflate the
tire and stay away from the tire
when filling it.

Securely install the sealant fill-
ing hose to the valve. If not,
sealant may flow backward,
possibly clogging the filling
hose.

7. Switch off the compressor.
8. Detach the hoses from the sealant
bottle connector and from the tire
valve.
Return the Tire Mobility Kit to its stor-
age location in the vehicle.
Distributing the sealant
9. Immediately drive approximately
7~10 km (4~6 miles or about 10
minutes) to evenly distribute the
sealant in the tire.
Do not exceed a speed of 80 km/h
(50 mph). If possible, do not fall
below a speed of 20 km/h (12 mph).
While driving, if you experience any
unusual vibration, ride disturbance 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 towing.
Checking the tire inflation pres-
sure
1. After driving approximately 7~10 km
(4~6 miles or about 10 minutes),
stop at a safe location.
2. Connect the filling hose (3) direct-
ly into the compressor.
What to do in an emergency
Do not attempt to drive your
vehicle if the tire pressure is
below 200 kpa (29 psi). This
could result in an accident due
to sudden tire failure.
CAUTION
Do not leave your vehicle run-
ning in a poorly ventilated area
for extended periods of time.
Carbon monoxide poisoning
and suffocation can occur.

What to do in an emergency
3. Connect the other end of the filling
hose (3) directly into the tire valve.
4. Plug the compressor power cord
(4) into the vehicle power outlet.5. Adjust the tire inflation pressure to
the recommended tire inflation.
With the ignition switched on, pro-
ceed as follows.
- To increase the inflation pres-
sure:
Switch on the compressor. To
check the current inflation pres-
sure setting, briefly switch off the
compressor.
- To reduce the inflation pres-
sure:
Press the button (9) on the com-
pressor.
Do not let the compressor run for
more than 10 minutes, otherwise
the device will overheat and may
be damaged.
Information
The pressure gauge may show higher
than actual reading when the com-
pressor is running. To get an accurate
tire pressure, the compressor needs to
be turned off.

NOTICE6
OAE067040
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 TMK may be ineffec-
tual for tire damage larger than
approximately 4 mm (0.16 in).
We recommend that you contact
an authorized HYUNDAI dealer if
the tire cannot be made road-
worthy with the Tire Mobility Kit.
CAUTION

Information
When reinstalling the repaired or
replaced tire and wheel on the vehicle,
tighten the wheel lug nut to 11~13
kgf·m (79~94 lbf·ft).
i
What to do in an emergency
Tire pressure sensor (if equipped
with TPMS)
The sealant on the tire pressure
sensor and wheel should be
removed when you replace the
tire with a new one and inspect
the tire pressure sensors at an
authorized dealer.
CAUTION
The tire inflation pressure must
be at least 220 kPa (32 psi). If it
is not, do not continue driving.
Call for road side service or tow-
ing.

Towing service
If emergency towing is necessary,
we recommend having it done by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer or a
commercial tow-truck service.
Proper lifting and towing procedures
are necessary to prevent damage to
the vehicle. The use of wheel dollies
or flatbed is recommended.It is acceptable to tow the vehicle
with the rear wheels on the ground
(without dollies) and the front wheels
off the ground.
If any of the loaded wheels or sus-
pension components are damaged
or the vehicle is being towed with the
front wheels on the ground, use a
towing dolly under the front wheels.
When being towed by a commercial
tow truck and wheel dollies are not
used, the front of the vehicle should
always be lifted, not the rear.
TOWING
OAE066018Dolly Dolly
•Do not tow the vehicle with the
front wheels on the ground as
this may cause damage to the
vehicle.
•Do not tow with sling-type
equipment. Use wheel lift or
flatbed equipment.
CAUTION

6-44
What to do in an emergency
When towing your vehicle in an
emergency without wheel dollies:
1. Place the ignition switch in the
ACC position.
2. Place the shift lever in N (Neutral).
3. Release the parking brake.
Removable towing hook
1. Open the tailgate, and remove the
towing hook from the tool case.
2. Remove the hole cover pressing
the lower part of the cover on the
bumper.
3. Install the towing hook by turning it
clockwise into the hole until it is
fully secured.
4. Remove the towing hook and
install the cover after use. Failure to place the shift lever in
N (Neutral) may cause internal
damage to the transmission.
