Emergency situations
8-18
WARNING
Do not use the tire sealant after
the sealant has expired (i.e. past
the expiration date on the sealant
container). This can increase the risk of
tire failure.
WARNING
• Keep out of reach of children.
• Avoid contact with eyes.
• Do not swallow.
Using the Tire Mobility Kit
WARNING
ONX4080010
Detach the speed restriction label (1)
from the sealant bottle (2), and place
it in a highly visible place inside the
vehicle such as on the steering wheel to
remind the driver not to drive too fast.
OTM080025
1. Shake the sealant bottle (2).

2. Remove the cover (A) of the sealant
bottle (2) and compressor (6).
OTM080024
3. Connect the sealant bo ttle (2) and
compressor (6).
4.
Make sur

e that the valve (9) for
reducing tire inflation pressure is
closed.
ONX4080011
5. Unscrew the valve cap from the
v alve of the defective and screw
the connection hose (3) of the
compressor and tire.
NOTICE
Securely install the sealant filling hose
to the valve. If not, sealant may flow
backward, possibly clogging the filling
hose.
6.
Make sur

e the compressor turns off by
pressing [O] of the main switch (7).
ONX4080012
7. Connect the cable and connector ( 4)
to the power outlet in the vehicle.
8.
Start the v

ehicle.

Emergency situations
8-20
9. With the vehicle ON
( indicator ON), switch on
the compressor and let it run for
approximately 5~7 minutes to fill
the sealant up to proper pressure.
(Refer to “Tire and Wheels” section
in chapter2). 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 tire when
filling it.
CAUTION
Do not attempt to drive your vehicle if
the tire pressure is below 200 kpa (29
psi). This could result in an accident due
to sudden tire failure.
10.
Swit

ch off the compressor.
11.
Detach the hoses fr

om the sealant
bottle connector and from the tire
valve.
Return the Tire Mobility Kit to its storage
location in the vehicle.
WARNING
Do not leave your vehicle running in
a poorly ventilated area for extended
periods of time. Carbon monoxide
poisoning and suffocation can occur.
Distributing the sealant
OOSH079022L
12. Immediat ely drive approximately 4~6
miles (7~10 km or about 10 minutes)
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 pull off of the
side of the road.
Call for road side service or towing.

13. After driving approximately 4~6 miles
(7~10 km or about 10 minutes), stop at
a safe location.
ONX4080011
14. Connect the connection hose (3) o f
the compressor and tire into the tire
valve.
15.
Connect cables (4

) to the battery.
16.
Adjus

t the tire inflation pressure to the
recommended tire inflation.
With the vehicle in the ready (
)
mode, proceed as follows.
- To incr

ease the inflation pressure:
Switch on the compressor.
To check the current inflation
pressure setting, briefly switch off
the compressor.
- To r

educe the inflation pressure:
Press the button (9) on the
compressor.
NOTICE
Do not let the compressor run for more
than 10 minutes, otherwise the device
will overheat and may be damaged.
Checking the tire inflation
pressure
1. After driving approximately 7~10 km
( 4~6 miles or about 10 minutes), stop
at a safe location.
ONX4080011
2. Connect the connection hose (3) o f
the compressor and tire into the tire
valve.

t the tire inflation pressure to the
recommended tire inflation.
With the vehicle in the ready (
)
mode, proceed as follows.
- To incr

NOTICE
Do not let the compressor run for more
than 10 minutes, otherwise the device
will overheat and may be damaged.

Emergency situations
8-22
Information
The pressure gauge may show higher than
actual reading when the compressor is
running. To get an accurate tire pressure,
the compressor needs to be turned off.
CAUTION
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 ineffectual 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 roadworthy with the
Tire Mobility Kit.
WARNING
The tire inflation pressure must be
inflated to the proper pressure (Refer to
“Tire and Wheels” section in chapter 2).
If it is not, do not continue driving.
Call for road side service or towing.
CAUTION
Tire pressure sensor
The sealant on the tire pressure sensor
and wheel should be removed when
you replace the tire with a new one and
inspect the tire pressure sensors. We
recommend that you get this done at an
authorized dealer.
Information
When reinstalling the repaired or replaced
tire and wheel on the vehicle, tighten the
wheel bolt to 11~13 kgf·m (79~94 lbf·ft).

towing
Towing service

A
ONX4080013[A] : Dollies
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 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 suspension
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.
CAUTION
ONX4080015
• Do not tow with sling-type
equipment. Use wheel lift or flatbed
equipment.
ONX4080016
• Do not tow the vehicle with the front
wheels on the ground as this may
cause damage to the vehicle.
When towing your vehicle in an
emergency without wheel dollies:
1.
Release EPB be

fore turning off the
engine.
2.
Place the ignition swit

ch to the OFF
position.
3.
Change the gear to N (N

eutral) while
pressing the brake pedal.
4.
Place the ignition swit

ch to the ACC
position.
CAUTION
Failure to place the shift button in N
(Neutral) may cause internal damage to
the transmission.
