i Information
Pb
An inappropriately disposed
battery can be harmful to the
environment and human health.
Dispose the battery according to
your local law(s) or regulation.
Jump starting procedure
1. Position the vehicles close enough
that the jumper cables will reach, but
do not allow the vehicles to touch.
2. Avoid fans or any moving parts in the
engine compartment at all times, even
when the vehicles are turned off.
3. Turn off all electrical devices such
as radios, lights, air conditioning,
etc. Put the vehicles in N (Neutral,
for Automated manual transmission
vehicle) or neutral (for manual

If your temperature gauge indicates
overheating, you experience a loss of
power, or hear loud pinging or knocking,
the engine may be overheating. If this
happens, you should:
1. Pull off the road and stop as soon as it
is safe to do so.
2. Place the shift lever in N (Neutral,
for Automated manual transmission
vehicle) or neutral (for manual
transmission vehicle) and set the
parking brake. If the air conditioning is
ON, turn it OFF.
3. If engine coolant is running out under
the vehicle or steam is coming out
from the hood, stop the engine. Do
not open the hood until the coolant
has stopped running or the steaming
has stopped. If there is no visible
loss of engine coolant and no steam,
leave the engine running and check
to be sure the engine cooling fan is
operating. If the fan is not running,
turn the engine off.
WARNING
While the engine is running,
keep hands, clothing and
tools away from the moving
parts such as the cooling
fan and drive belt to
prevent serious injury.4. Check for coolant leaking from the
radiator, hoses or under the vehicle. (If
the air conditioning had been in use, it
is normal for cold water to be draining
from it when you stop.)
5. If engine coolant is leaking out,
stop the engine immediately and
we recommend that you call an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer for
assistance.
WARNING
NEVER remove the radiator
cap or the drain plug while
the engine and radiator are
hot. Hot coolant and steam
may blow out under
pressure, causing serious injury.
Turn the engine off and wait until the
engine cools down. Use extreme care
when removing the radiator cap. Wrap
a thick towel around it, and turn it
counterclockwise slowly to the first
stop. Step back while the pressure
is released from the cooling system.
When you are sure all the pressure
has been released, press down on the
cap, using a thick towel, and continue
turning counterclockwise to remove it.

If you have a tire gauge, check the tire
pressure (see “Tires and Wheels” in
chapter 2 for tire pressure instructions.).
If the pressure is lower or higher than
recommended, drive slowly to the
nearest service station and adjust it to
the recommended pressure. Always
reinstall the valve cap after checking
or adjusting tire pressure. If the cap is
not replaced, air may leak from the tire.
If you lose a valve cap, buy another
and install it as soon as possible. After
changing tires, secure the flat tire and
return the jack and tools to their proper
storage locations.
i Information
Check the tire pressure as soon as possible
after installing a spare tire. Adjust it to
the recommended pressure.
NOTICE
Your vehicle has metric threads on
the studs and lug nuts. Make certain
during tire changing that the same
nuts that were removed are reinstalled.
If you have to replace your lug nuts
make sure they have metric threads to
avoid damaging the studs and ensure
the wheel is properly secured to the
hub. We recommend that you consult
an authorized HYUNDAI dealer for
assistance.
If any of the equipment such as the jack,
lug nuts, studs, or other equipment is
damaged or in poor condition, do not
attempt to change the tire and call for
assistance.
Use of compact spare tires
(if equipped)
Compact spare tires are designed for
emergency use only. Drive carefully on
the compact spare tire and always follow
the safety precautions.
WARNING
To prevent compact spare tire failure
and loss of control possibly resulting in
an accident:
• Use the compact spare tire only in an
emergency.
• NEVER operate your vehicle over 80
km/h (50 mph).
• Do not exceed the vehicle’s
maximum load rating or the load
carrying capacity shown on the
sidewall of the compact spare tire.
• Do not use the compact spare tire
continuously. Repair or replace the
original tire as soon as possible to
avoid failure of the compact spare
tire.
9-18
Emergency situations
When driving with the compact spare
tire mounted to your vehicle:
• Check the tire pressure after installing
the compact spare tire. The compact
spare tire should be inflated to 420
kPa (60 psi).
• Do not take this vehicle through an
automatic car wash while the compact
spare tire is installed.
• Do not use the compact spare tire on
any other vehicle because this tire
has been designed especially for your
vehicle.
• The compact spare tire’s tread life
is shorter than a regular tire. Inspect
your compact spare tire regularly and
replace worn compact spare tires with
the same size and design, mounted on
the same wheel.
• Do not use more than one compact
spare tire at a time.
• Do not tow a trailer while the compact
spare tire is installed.
i Information
When the original tire and wheel are
repaired and reinstalled on the vehicle,
the lug nut torque must be set correctly
to prevent wheel vibration. The correct
lug nut tightening torque is 11~13 kgf.m
(79~94 lbf.ft).
NOTICE
To prevent damaging the compact
spare tire and your vehicle:
• Drive slowly enough for the road
conditions to avoid all hazards, such
as a potholes or debris.
• Avoid driving over obstacles. The
compact spare tire diameter is
smaller than the diameter of a
conventional tire and reduces the
ground clearance approximately 25
mm (1 inch).
• Do not use tire chains on the compact
spare tire. Because of the smaller
size, a tire chain will not fit properly.
• Do not use the compact spare tire
on any other wheels, nor should
standard tires, snow tires, wheel
covers or trim rings be used with the
compact spare wheel.
