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 located within
the tread region of the tyre can be
sealed using the tyre mobility kit.
Do not use on motorcycles, bicycles
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 inch).
Please contact the nearest
HYUNDAI dealership if the tyre can-
not be made roadworthy with the
Tyre Mobility Kit.
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 oper-
ating 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 running
for more than 10 minutes 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 anything
to an unconscious person and seek
medical attention immediately.
Long time exposure to the sealant
may cause damage to bodily tissue
such as kidney, etc.

What to do in an emergency
Using the Tyre Mobility Kit
1. Shake the sealant bottle (2).2. Connect the filling hose (3) to the
sealant 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.

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.
WARNING
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 wheel
to remind the driver not to drive
too fast.

4. Unscrew the valve cap from the
valve of the defective and screw
the filling hose (3) of the sealant
bottle onto the valve.5. Plug the compressor power cord
(4) into the vehicle power outlet.
6. With the With the vehicle ON (
indicator ON), switch on the com-
pressor and let it run for approxi-
mately 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 unimpor-
tant and will be checked/corrected
later.
Be careful not to overinflate the
tyre and stay away from the tyre
when filling it.
What to do in an emergency
Securely install the sealant fill-
ing hose to the valve. If not,
sealant may flow rearward, pos-
sibly clogging the filling hose.

Tyre pressure sensor
(if equipped with TPMS)
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 dealer.
CAUTION

Towing service
If emergency towing is necessary,
we recommend having it done by an
authorised 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 dollies
or 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.

Emergency towing
If towing is necessary, we recom-
mend you have it done by an autho-
rised HYUNDAI dealer or a commer-
cial tow truck service.If a towing service is not available in
an emergency, your vehicle may be
temporarily towed using a cable or
chain secured to the emergency tow-
ing hook at the front (or rear) of the
vehicle.
Use extreme caution when towing
the vehicle with a cable or chain. A
driver must be in the vehicle to steer
it and operate the brakes.
Towing in this manner may be done
only on hard-surfaced roads for a
short distance and at low speeds.
Also, the wheels, axles, power train,
steering and brakes must all be in
good condition.Always follow these emergency tow-
ing precautions:
Place the ignition switch in the ACC
position so the steering wheel is
not locked.
Place the shift lever in N (Neutral).
Release the parking brake.
Depress the brake pedal with more
force than normal since you will
have reduced braking perform-
ance.
More steering effort will be required
because the power steering system
will be disabled.
Use a vehicle heavier than your
own to tow your vehicle.
The drivers of both vehicles should
communicate with each other fre-
quently.
Before emergency towing, check
that the hook is not broken or dam-
aged.
Fasten the towing cable or chain
securely to the hook.
Do not jerk the hook. Apply steady
and even force.
