What to do in an emergency
The Tire Mobility Kit is not designed
or intended as a permanent tire
repair method and is to be used for
one tire only. This instruction shows
you step by step how to temporarily
seal the puncture simply and reliably.
Read the section "Notes on the safe
use of the Tire Mobility Kit".Notes on the safe use of theTire Mobility Kit
Park your car at the side of the road so that you can work with the
Tire 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 Tire Mobility Kit for sealing/inflation passenger car
tires. Only punctured areas locatedwithin the tread region of the tirecan be sealed using the tire mobil-ity kit.
Do not use on motorcycles, bicy- cles or any other type of tires.
When the tire and wheel are dam- aged, do not use Tire Mobility Kit
for your safety.
Use of the Tire Mobility Kit may not be effective for tire damage larger
than approximately 0.24 in (6 mm).
If the tire cannot be made roadwor-
thy with the Tire Mobility Kit, we
recommend that you contact an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer. Do not use the Tire Mobility Kit if a
tire 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 tire.
Provided the car is outdoors, leave the engine running. Otherwise
operating the compressor may
eventually drain the car battery.
Never leave the Tire Mobility Kit unattended while 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 Tire Mobility Kit if the ambient temperature is below -22°F (-30°C).
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.

Do not use the TMK if a tire is
severely damaged by driving runflat or with insufficient air pres-
sure.
Only punctured areas located within the tread region of the tire
can be sealed using the TMK.
WARNING

6-24
In case of swallowing the sealant,
rinse the mouth and drink plenty of
water. However, never give any-thing to an unconscious personand seek medical attention imme-
diately.
Long time exposure to the sealant may cause damage to bodily tissue
such as kidney, etc.

6-25
What to do in an emergency
Connectors, cable and connection hose are stored in the compressorhousing.
Strictly follow the specified
sequence, otherwise the sealant
may escape under high pressure.Using the Tire Mobility Kit1. Shake the sealant bottle (2).
2. Connect the filling hose (3) to thesealant bottle (2) in the direction of (A) and connect the sealant bottleto the compressor (6) in the direc-tion of (B).
3. Ensure that the compressor is switched OFF.

Expired sealant
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
Sealant
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 wheelto remind the driver not to drivetoo fast.

4. Unscrew the valve cap from the
valve of the defective wheel and
screw the filling hose (3) of the
sealant bottle onto the valve. 5. Plug the compressor power cord
(3) into the vehicle power outlet.
Only use the front passenger side
power outlet when connecting the
power cord.
6. With the Engine Start/Stop button in the ON position, switch on the
compressor and let it run for
approximately 5~7 minutes to fill
the sealant up to proper pressure.
(refer to the Tire and Wheels, chap-
ter 8). The inflation pressure of the
tire after filling is unimportant and
will be checked/corrected later.
Be careful not to overinflate the
tire and stay away from the tirewhen filling it.
NOTICE
What to do in an emergency
OLFH067037 Securely install the sealant fill-
ing hose to the valve. If not,
sealant may flow backward,
possibly clogging the filling
hose.
CAUTION

Tire pressure
Do not attempt to drive your
vehicle if the tire pressure is
below 200 kPa (29 psi). Thiscould result in an accident due
to sudden tire failure.

7. Switch off the compressor.
8. Detach the hoses from the sealantbottle 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 4~6 miles (7~10 km or, about
10min) to evenly distribute the
sealant in the tire. Do not exceed a speed of 50 mph
(80 km/h). If possible, do not fall
below a speed of 12 mph (20 km/h).
While driving, if you experience any
unusual vibration, ride disturbance or
noise, reduce your speed and drive
with caution until you can safely pulloff of the side of the road.
Call for road side service or towing.
When you use the Tire Mobility Kit,the tire pressure sensors and wheel
may be damaged by sealant, removethe sealant stained with tire pressuresensors and wheel and inspect in
authorized dealer.

Carbon monoxide
Do not leave your vehicle run-
ning in a poorly ventilated area
for extended periods of time.
Carbon monoxide poisoning
and suffocation can occur.

Checking the tire inflation pres-sure
1. After driving approximately 4~6 miles (7~10 km or about 10 min),
stop at a safety location.
2. Connect the filling hose (3) of the compressor directly to the tire valve. 3. Plug the compressor power cord
into the vehicle power outlet.
4. Adjust the tire inflation pressure to the recomended tire inflation.
With the ignition swithched on, proceed as follows.
- To increase the inflation pres- sure : Switch on the compres-
sor. To check the current inflation
pressure setting, briefly switch
off the compressor.
- To reduce the inflation pres- sure: Press the button (9) on the
compressor.
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 reading, the compressor needs to
be turned off.

NOTICE
What to do in an emergency
OIGH067043
OLFH067037
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.
WARNING
If the inflation pressure is not
maintained, drive the vehicle a
second time, refer to Distributing
the sealant. Then repeat steps 1to 4.
Use of the TMK may be ineffec-
tual for tire damage larger than
approximately 0.16 in (4 mm).
We recommend that you contact
an authorized HYUNDAI dealer if
the tire cannot be made road-
worthy with the Tire Mobility Kit.

What to do in an emergency
Information
When reinstalling the repaired or
replaced tire and wheel on the vehicle,
tighten the wheel lug nut to 11~13
kgf

6-30
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 dolliesor 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.
