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 theroad 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.
What to do in an emergency
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
• 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.

Expired sealant
Do not use the Tyre sealant after
the sealant has expired (i.e.
pasted the expiration date on
the sealant container). This can
increase the risk of tyre failure.

What to do in an emergency
Using the Tyre 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 bottle
to the compressor (6) in the direc-
tion of (B).
3. Ensure that the compressor is switched OFF.
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.
6
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 wheel
to remind the driver not to drive
too fast.
CAUTION

Securely install the sealant fill-
ing hose to the valve. If not,
sealant may flow backward,
possibly clogging the filling
hose.

5. Plug the compressor power cord(4) into the vehicle power outlet.
Only use the front passenger side
power outlet when connecting the
power cord.
6. With the ignition switch in the ON position, switch on the compres-
sor 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. 7. Switch off the compressor.
8. 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.
NOTICE
What to do in an emergency
Tyre pressure
Do not attempt to drive your
vehicle if the tyre pressure is
below 200 kPa (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.

What to do in an emergency
Distributing the sealant
9. Immediately drive approximately7~10 km (4~6 miles or, about
10min) to evenly distribute the
sealant in the tyre. Do not exceed a speed of 80 km/h
(50 mph). If possible, do not fall
below a speed of 20 km/h (12 mph).
Whilst driving, if you experience any
unusual vibration, ride disturbance 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 damaged by sealant, remove
the sealant stained with tyre pres-
sure sensors and wheel and inspect
in authorised repairer.
Checking the tyre inflation
pressure
1. After driving approximately 7~10
km (4~6 miles or about 10 min),
stop at a safety location.
2. Connect the filling hose (3) of the compressor directly to the tyre
valve.

3. Plug the compressor power cordinto the vehicle power outlet.
4. Adjust the tyre inflation pressure to the recomended tyre inflation.
With the ignition swithched on, proceed as follows.
- To increase the inflation pres- sure: Switch on the compressor.
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
tyre reading, the compressor needs to
be turned off.

NOTICE
What to do in an emergency
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.

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 at an 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).
