What to do in an emergency
It is possible that some tyres, espe-
cially with larger punctures or dam-
age to the sidewall, cannot be sealed
completely.
Air pressure loss in the tyre may
adversely affect tyre performance.
For this reason, you should avoid
abrupt steering or other driving
manoeuvres, especially if the vehicle
is heavily loaded or if a trailer is in
use.
The Tyre Mobility Kit is not designed
or intended as a permanent tyre
repair method and is to be used for
one tyre 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 Tyre Mobility Kit".
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 TMK if a tyre is
severely damaged by driving run
flat or with insufficient air pres-
sure.
Only punctured areas located
within the tread region of the
tyre can be sealed using the
TMK.

What to do in an emergency
• Do not use the Tyre Mobility Kit if atyre 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.

7. Connect between compressor and the vehicle power outlet using the
cable and connectors. 8. 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, chapter 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. 9. Switch off the compressor.
10. Detach the hoses from the
sealant bottle connector and
from the tyre valve.
Return the Tyre Mobility Kit to its
storage location in the vehicle.
Tyre pressure
Do not attempt to drive your
vehicle if the tyre pressure is
below 200kPa (29 psi). This
could result in an accident due
to sudden tyre failure.
CAUTION
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.
WARNING

Distributing the sealant
11. Immediately drive approximately4~6 miles (7~10 km or, about
10min) to evenly distribute the
sealant in the tyre.
Checking the tyre inflation
pressure
1. After driving approximately 4~6miles (7~10 km or about 10 min),
stop at a safety location.
2. Connect connection hose (9) of the compressor directly to the tyre
valve.
3. Plug the compressor power cord into the vehicle power outlet.
4. Adjust the tyre inflation pressure to the recomended tyre inflation.
With the ignition swithched on, proceed as follows.
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).
Whilst driving, if you experience
any unusual vibration, ride dis-
turbance 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. When you use the Tyre
Mobility Kit, the tyre pressure
sensors and wheel may be dam-
aged by sealant, remove the
sealant stained with tyre pres-
sure sensors and wheel and
inspect in authorised repairer.

What to do in an emergency- To increase the inflation pres-sure : Switch on the compres-
sor, position I. To check the cur-
rent inflation pressure setting,
briefly switch off the compressor.
The pressure gauge may show
higher than actual reading when
the compressor is running. To get
an accurate tyre reading, the com-
pressor needs to be turned off. - To reduce the inflation pres-sure: Press the button 8 on the
compressor. ❈
Sealant and spare parts can be
obtained and replaced at an autho-
rised vehicle or tyre repairer. Empty
sealant bottles may be disposed of
at home. Liquid residue from the
sealant should be disposed of by
your vehicle or tyre repairer or in
accordance with local waste dispos-
al regulations.
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 tow-
ing.
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 contact
a HYUNDAI authorised repairer if
the tyre cannot be made road-
worthy with the Tyre Mobility Kit.
CAUTION
Do not let the compressor run
for more than 10 minutes, other-
wise the device will overheat
and may be damaged.
WARNING
Tyre pressure sensor
The sealant on the tyre pres-
sure sensor and wheel should
be removed when you replace
the tyre with a new one and
inspect the tyre pressure sen-
sors in authorised repairer.
When reinstalling the repaired
or replaced tyre and wheel on
the vehicle, tighten the wheel
lug nut to 11~13 kgf·m (79~94
lbf·ft).

For safe operation, carefully read
and follow the instructions in this
manual before use.
(1) Compressor
(2) Sealant bottle
The Tyre Mobility Kit is a temporary
fix to the tyre and we recommend
that the system be inspected by a
HYUNDAI authorised repairer.
Introduction
With the Tyre Mobility Kit you stay
mobile even after experiencing a tyre
puncture.
The system of compressor and seal-
ing compound effectively and com-
fortably seals most punctures in a
passenger car tyre caused by nails
or similar objects and reinflates the
tyre.
After you ensured that the tyre is
properly sealed you can drive cau-
tiously on the tyre (distance up to
120 miles (200 km)) at a max. speed
of 50 mph (80 km/h) in order to reach
a service station or tyre dealer to
have the tyre replaced.
It is possible that some tyres, espe-
cially with larger punctures or dam-
age to the sidewall, cannot be sealed
completely.
Air pressure loss in the tyre may
adversely affect tyre performance.
For this reason, you should avoid
abrupt steering or other driving
manoeuvres, especially if the vehicle
is heavily loaded or if a trailer is in
use.
IF YOU HAVE A FLAT TYRE (WITH TYRE MOBILITY KIT, IF EQUIPPED) - TYPE B
OTLE068050Do not use the Tyre Mobility Kit
to repair punctures in the tyre
walls. This can result in an acci-
dent due to tyre failure.
WARNING
Have your tyre repaired as soon
as possible. The tyre may loose
air pressure at any time after
inflating with the Tyre Mobility
Kit.
WARNING
When two or more tyres are flat,
do not use the tyre mobility kit
because the supported one
sealant of Tyre Mobility Kit is
only used for one flat tyre.
