What to do in an emergency
Tyre pressure monitoring sys-
tem
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 effi-
ciency and tyre tread life, and may
affect the vehicle’s handling 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 one minute and then remain con-
tinuously illuminated. This sequence
will continue upon subsequent vehi-
cle start-ups as long as the malfunc-
tion exists.
When the malfunction indicator is illu-
minated, the system may not be able
to detect or signal low tyre pressure
as intended. TPMS malfunctions may
occur for a variety of reasons, includ-
ing the installation of replacement or
alternate tyres or wheels on the vehi-
cle that prevent the TPMS from func-
tioning properly.
Always check the TPMS malfunction
telltale after replacing one or more
tyres or wheels on your vehicle to
ensure that the replacement or alter-
nate tyres and wheels allow the
TPMS to continue to function proper-
ly.

Over-inflation or under-inflation
can reduce tyre life, adversely
affect vehicle handling, and
lead to sudden tyre failure that
may cause loss of vehicle con-
trol resulting in an accident.
WARNING

6-18
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.
Changing a tyre with TPMS
If you have a flat tyre, the Low Tyre
Pressure and Position telltales will
come on. We recommend that the
flat tire be repaired by a HYUNDAI
authorised repairer as soon as pos-
sible or replace the flat tyre with the
spare tyre.
The spare tyre (if equipped) does not
come with a tyre pressure monitoring
sensor. When the low pressure tyre
or the flat tyre is replaced with the
spare tyre, the Low Tyre Pressure
Telltale will remain on. Also, the
TPMS Malfunction Indicator will illu-
minate after blinking for one minute if
the vehicle is driven at speed above
15.5 mph (25 km/h) for approximate-
ly 10 minutes.Once the original tyre equipped with
a tyre pressure monitoring sensor is
reinflated to the recommended pres-
sure and reinstalled on the vehicle,
the Low Tyre Pressure Telltale and
TPMS Malfunction Indicator will go
off within a few minutes of driving.
If the indicators do not extinguish
after a few minutes, please visit a
HYUNDAI authorised repairer.
Each wheel is equipped with a tyre
pressure sensor mounted inside the
tyre behind the valve stem (except
for the spare tyre). You must use
TPMS specific wheels. It is recom-
mended that you always have your
tyres serviced by a HYUNDAI autho-
rised repairer.
You may not be able to identify a tyre
with low pressure by simply looking
at it. Always use a good quality tyre
pressure gauge to measure. Please
note that a tyre that is hot (from
being driven) will have a higher pres-
sure measurement than a tyre that is
cold.
NOTICE
What to do in an emergency
It is recommended that you do
not use a puncture-repairing
agent not approved by a
HYUNDAI dealer to repair and/or
inflate a low pressure tyre. Tyre
sealant not approved by a
HYUNDAI dealer may damage
the tyre pressure sensor.
CAUTION

6-19
What to do in an emergency
A cold tyre means the vehicle has
been sitting for 3 hours and driven for
less than 1 mile (1.6 km) in that 3
hour period.
Allow the tyre to cool before measur-
ing the inflation pressure. Always be
sure the tyre is cold before inflating
to the recommended pressure.
6
The TPMS cannot alert you to
severe and sudden tyre dam-
age caused by external fac-
tors such as nails or road
debris.
If you feel any vehicle instabil-
ity, immediately take your foot
off the accelerator, apply the
brakes gradually with light
force, and slowly move to a
safe position off the road.
WARNING
Tampering with, modifying, or
disabling the Tyre Pressure
Monitoring System (TPMS) com-
ponents may interfere with the
system's ability to warn the driv-
er of low tyre pressure condi-
tions and/or TPMS malfunctions.
Tampering with, modifying, or
disabling the Tyre Pressure
Monitoring System (TPMS) com-
ponents may void the warranty
for that portion of the vehicle.
WARNING
For EUROPE
Do not modify the vehicle; it
may interfere with the TPMS
function.
The wheels on the market do
not have a TPMS sensor.
For your safety, we recom-
mend that you use parts for
replacement from a HYUNDAI
authorised repairer.
If you use the wheels on the mar-
ket, use a TPMS sensor approved
by a HYUNDAI de
aler. If your
vehicle is not equipped with a
TPMS sensor or TPMS does not
work properly, you may fail the
periodic vehicle inspection con-
ducted in your country.
❈ ❈ All vehicles sold in the EUROPE
market during below period
must be equipped with TPMS.
- New model vehicle :
Nov. 1, 2012 ~

What to do in an emergency
If you have a tyre gauge, check the
tyre pressure (see "Tyres and
Wheels" in chapter 8 for tyre pres-
sure instructions.). If the pressure is
lower or higher than recommended,
drive slowly to the nearest service
station and adjust it to the recom-
mended pressure. Always reinstall
the valve cap after checking or
adjusting tyre pressure. If the cap is
not replaced, air may leak from the
tyre. If you lose a valve cap, buy
another and install it as soon as pos-
sible. After changing tyres, secure
the flat tyre and return the jack and
tools to their proper storage loca-
tions.
Check the tyre pressure as soon
as possible after installing a spare
tyre. Adjust it to the recommend-
ed pressure. 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
tyre and call for assistance.
Check and tighten the tyre wheel lug
nuts after driving over 30 mile (50km)
if tyres are replaced. Re-check the
tyre wheel lug nuts after driving over
620 mile (1,000km).
Use of compact spare tyres
(if equipped)
Compact spare tyres are designed
for emergency use only. Drive care-
fully on the compact spare tyre and
always follow the safety precautions.
NOTICE
Your vehicle has metric threads
on the studs and lug nuts. Make
certain during tyre 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. We
recommend that you consult a
HYUNDAI authorised repairer
for assistance.
CAUTION
To prevent compact spare tyre
failure and loss of control pos-
sibly resulting in an accident:
Use the compact spare tyre
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 tyre.
Do not use the compact spare
tyre continuously. Repair or
replace the original tyre as
soon as possible to avoid fail-
ure of the compact spare tyre.
