What to do in an emergency
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
system be checked by a HYUNDAI
authorised repairer.
Each wheel is equipped with a tyre
pressure sensor mounted inside the
tyre behind the valve stem. You must
use TPMS specific wheels. It is rec-
ommended that you have your tyres
serviced by a HYUNDAI authorised
repairer.If you drive the vehicle for about 10
minutes at speeds above 15.5 mph
(25 km/h) after replacing the low
pressure tyre with the spare tyre, the
following will happen:
The TPMS malfunction indicator
may blink for approximately 1 minute
and then remain continuously illumi-
nated because the TPMS sensor is
not mounted on the spare wheel.
You may not be able identify a tyre
with low pressure by simply looking
at it. Always use a good quality tyre
pressure gauge to measure the
tyre's inflation pressure. Please note
that a tyre that is hot (from being
driven) will have a higher pressure
measurement than a tyre that is cold.
Allow the tyre to cool before measur-
ing the inflation pressure. Always be
sure the tyre is cold before inflating
to the recommended pressure.
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.
The TPMS malfunction indicator
may blink for approximately 1
minute and then remain contin-
uously illuminated if the vehicle
is moving around electric power
supply cables or radios trans-
mitter such as at police stations,
government and public offices,
broadcasting stations, military
installations, airports, or trans-
mitting towers, etc. This can
interfere with normal operation
of the Tyre Pressure Monitoring
System (TPMS).
The TPMS malfunction indica-
tor may blink for approximately
1 minute and then remain con-
tinuously illuminated if snow
chains are used or some sepa-
rate electronic devices such as
notebook computer, mobile
charger, remote starter or nav-
igation etc., are used in the
vehicle.
This can interfere with normal
operation of the Tyre Pressure
Monitoring System (TPMS).
CAUTION
It is recommended that you do
not use a puncture-repairing
agent not approved by
HYUNDAI dealer to repair
and/or inflate a low pressure
tire. Tire sealant not approved
by HYUNDAI dealer may dam-
age the tyre pressure sensor.
CAUTION
6-19
What to do in an emergency
6
The TPMS cannot alert you to
severe and sudden tyre dam-
age caused by external factors
such as nails or road debris.
If you feel any vehicle instabil-
ity, immediately take your foot
off the accelerator, apply the
brakes gradually and 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
market, use a TPMS sensor
approved by a HYUNDAI
authorised repairer. If your
vehicle is not equipped with a
TPMS sensor or TPMS does
not work properly, you may
fail the periodic vehicle
inspection conducted in your
country.
❈ ❈All vehicles sold in the
EUROPE market during below
period must be equipped with
TPMS.

If it is hard to loosen the tyre hold-
down wing bolt by hand, you can
loosen it easily using the wheel nut
wrench.
Turn the tyre hold-down wing bolt
counterclockwise with the wheel nut
wrench.
Changing tyres
Follow these steps to change your
vehicle's tyre:
1. Park on a level, firm surface.
2. Move the shift lever into P (Park,for dual clutch transmission vehi-
cle) or neutral (for manual trans-
mission vehicle), apply the park-
ing brake, and place the ignition
switch in the LOCK/OFF position.
3. Press the hazard warning flasher button.
4. Remove the wheel lug nut wrench, jack, jack handle, and spare tyre
from the vehicle.
A vehicle can slip or roll off of a
jack causing serious injury or
death to you or those nearby.
Take the following safety pre-
cautions:
Do not get under a vehicle
that is supported by a jack.
NEVER attempt to change a
tyre in the lane of traffic.
ALWAYS move the vehicle
completely off the road on
level, firm ground away from
traffic before trying to change
a tyre. If you cannot find a
level, firm place off the road,
call a towing service for assis-
tance.
Be sure to use the jack pro-
vided with the vehicle.
ALWAYS place the jack on the
designated jacking positions
on the vehicle and NEVER on
the bumpers or any other part
of the vehicle for jacking sup-
port.
WARNING
Do not start or run the engine
whilst the vehicle is on the
jack.
Do not allow anyone to remain
in the vehicle whilst it is on
the jack.
Keep children away from the
road and the vehicle.

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, put the
flat tyre in its place and return the
jack and tools to their proper storage
locations.
Check the tyre pressure as soon as possible after installing a
spare tyre. Adjust it to the rec-
ommended pressure.
Check and tighten the wheel lug nuts after driving over 30 mph
(50 km) if tyres are replaced. Re-
check the tyre wheel lug nuts
after driving over 620 mph (1,000
km). 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.
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.
WARNING
6-25
What to do in an emergency
6
When driving with the compact spare
tyre mounted to your vehicle:
Check the tyre pressure afterinstalling the compact spare tyre.
The compact spare tyre should be
inflated to 420 kPa (60 psi).
Do not take this vehicle through an automatic car wash whilst the com-
pact spare tyre is installed.
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 compact
spare tyres with the same size and
design, mounted on the same
wheel.
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. When the original tyre and wheel
are repaired and reinstalled on the
vehicle, the lug nut torque must be
set correctly. The correct lug nut
tightening torque is 11~13 kgf·m
(79~94 lbf·ft).NOTICE
To prevent damaging the com-
pact spare tyre and your vehi-
cle:
Drive slowly enough for the
road conditions to avoid all
hazards, such as a potholes
or debris.
Avoid driving over obstacles.
The compact spare tyre diam-
eter is smaller than the diame-
ter of a conventional tyre and
reduces the ground clearance
approximately 25 mm (1 inch).
Do not use tyre chains on the
compact spare tyre. Because
of the smaller size, a tyre
chain will not fit properly.
Do not use the compact spare
tyre on any other wheels, nor
should standard tyres, snow
tyres, wheel covers or trim
rings be used with the com-
pact spare wheel.
