What to do in an emergency
To prevent the jack, jack handle,
wheel lug nut wrench and spare tyre
from rattling whilst the vehicle is in
motion, store them properly.
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. Note that most lug nuts do not
have metric threads. Be sure to
use extreme care in checking
for thread style before installing
aftermarket lug nuts or wheels.
If in doubt, we recommend that
you consult a HYUNDAI autho-
rised repairer.
Wheel studs
If the studs are damaged, they
may lose their ability to retain
the wheel. This could lead to the
loss of the wheel and a collision
resulting in serious injuries.
WARNING
Inadequate spare tyre pressure
Check the inflation pressures
as soon as possible after
installing the spare tyre. Adjust
it to the specified pressure, if
necessary. Refer to "Tyres and
wheels" in section 8.
WARNING
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.

When driving with the compact spare
tyre mounted to your vehicle:
• Check the tyre pressure after
installing 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.

Notes on the safe use of the
Tyre Mobility Kit
• Park your car at the side of the
road so that you can work with the
Tyre Mobility Kit away from moving
traffic.
• To be sure your vehicle will not
move, even when you're on fairly
level ground, always set your park-
ing brake.
• Only use the Tyre Mobility Kit for
sealing/inflation passenger car
tyres. Only punctured areas locat-
ed within the tread region of the
tyre can be sealed using the tyre
mobility kit.• Do not use on motorcycles, bicy-
cles or any other type of tyres.
• When the tyre and wheel are dam-
aged, do not use Tyre Mobility Kit
for your safety.
• Use of the Tyre Mobility Kit may not
be effective for tyre damage larger
than approximately 6 mm (0.24 in).
If the tyre cannot be made road-
worthy with the Tyre Mobility Kit,
we recommend that you contact a
HYUNDAI authorised repairer.
• Do not use the Tyre Mobility Kit if a
tyre is severely damaged by driving
run flat or with insufficient air pres-
sure.
• Do not remove any foreign objects
such as nails or screws that have
penetrated the tyre.
• Provided the car is outdoors, leave
the engine running. Otherwise
operating the compressor may
eventually drain the car battery.
• Never leave the Tyre Mobility Kit
unattended whilst it is being used.
• Do not leave the compressor run-
ning for more than 10 min. at a time
or it may overheat.• Do not use the Tyre Mobility Kit if
the ambient temperature is below
-30°C (-22°F).
• In case of skin contact with the
sealant, wash the area thoroughly
with plenty of water. If the irritation
persists, seek medical attention.
• In case of eye contact with the
sealant, flush your eyes for at least
15 minutes. If the irritation persists,
seek medical attention.
• In case of swallowing the sealant,
rinse the mouth and drink plenty of
water. However, never give any-
thing to an unconscious person
and seek medical attention imme-
diately.
• Long time exposure to the sealant
may cause damage to bodily tissue
such as kidney, etc. Do not use the TMK if a tyre is
severely damaged by driving
run flat or with insufficient air
pressure.
Only punctured areas located
within the tread region of the
tyre can be sealed using the
TMK.

nal8. With the engine start/stop button
position on or ignition switch posi-
tion on, switch on the compressor
and let it run for approximately
5~7 minutes to fill the sealant up
to proper pressure. (refer to the
Tyre and Wheels, section 8). The
inflation pressure of the tyre after
filling is unimportant and will be
checked/ corrected later.
Be careful not to overinflate the
tyre and stay away from the tyre
when filling it.

NOTICE
The tyre inflation pressure must
be at least 220 kPa (32 psi). If it
is not, do not continue driving.
Call for road side service or
towing.
WARNING
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 tyre damage larger than
approximately 4 mm (0.16 in).
We recommend that you con-
tact a HYUNDAI authorised
repairer if the tyre cannot be
made roadworthy with the Tyre
Mobility Kit.
CAUTION

TOWING
Towing service
[A] : Dollies
If emergency towing is necessary,
we recommend having it done by a
HYUNDAI authorised repairer 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.On 2WD vehicles, 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.
OTM068010L
The 4WD vehicle should never
be towed with the wheels on the
ground. This can cause serious
damage to the transmission or
the 4WD system.
CAUTION
•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.
