Emergency Situations8-4
Jump starting can be dangerous if done
incorrectly. Follow the jump starting
procedure in this section to avoid serious
injury or damage to your vehicle. If in
doubt about how to properly jump start
your vehicle, have a service technician or
towing service do it for you.
WARNING
To prevent SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH
to you or bystanders, always follow
these precautions when working near
or handling the battery:
Always read and follow
instructions carefully when
handling a battery.
Wear eye protection designed
to protect the eyes from acid
splashes.
Keep all flames, sparks, or
smoking materials away from
the battery.
Hydrogen is always present
in battery cells, is highly
combustible, and may explode
if ignited.
Keep batteries out of reach of
children.
Batteries contain sulfuric acid
which is highly corrosive. Do
not allow acid to contact your
eyes, skin or clothing. If acid gets into your eyes, flush your
eyes with clean water for at least 15
minutes and get immediate medical
attention. If acid gets on your skin,
thoroughly wash the area. If you feel
pain or a burning sensation, get medical
attention immediately.
•
When lifting a plastic-cased battery,
excessive pressure on the case may
cause battery acid to leak. Lift with a
battery carrier or with your hands on
opposite corners.
• Do not attempt to jump start your
vehicle if your battery is frozen.
• NEVER attempt to recharge the
battery when the vehicle’s battery
cables are connected to the battery.
• The electrical ignition system works
with high voltage. NEVER touch
these components with the engine
running or when the Engine Start/
Stop button in the OFF position.

5. Plug the compressor power cord (4) into the vehicle power outlet.
NOTICE
Only use the front passenger side
power outlet when connecting the
power cord.
6. Set the Engine Start/Stop button to the ON position.
7. Switch on the compressor and let it run for approximately 5~7 minutes to
fill the sealant up to proper pressure.
(refer to the Tire and Wheels, chapter
2). 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
Tire pressure
Do not attempt to drive your vehicle if
the tire pressure is below 29 psi (200
kPa). This could result in an accident
due to sudden tire failure. 8. Switch off the compressor.
9. Detach the hoses from the sealant
bottle connector and from the tire
valve.
Return the Tire Mobility Kit to its storage
location in the vehicle.
WARNING
Carbon monoxide
Do not leave your vehicle running in
a poorly ventilated area for extended
periods of time. Carbon monoxide
poisoning and suffocation can occur.
OLMF064106OLMF064106
10. Immediately drive approximately 4~6
miles (7~10 km or, about 10min) 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.

Information
When reinstalling the repaired or replaced
tire and wheel on the vehicle, tighten the
wheel lug nut to 79~94 lbf·ft (11~13 kgf·m).
How to Adjust Tire Pressure

OCN7N081093OCN7N081093
1. Park your vehicle in a safe location.
2. Connect the filling hose (2) of the compressor directly to the tire valve.
3. Plug the compressor power cord into the vehicle power outlet.
4. Adjust the tire inflation pressure to the recomended tire inflation.
With the Engine Start/Stop button ON,
proceed as follows.

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

- To reduce the inflation pressure:
Press the button (8) on the
compressor.
NOTICE
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 compressor is
running. To get an accurate tire reading,
the compressor needs to be turned off.
CAUTION
Do not use the sealant when the tire
pressure only needs to be adjusted.
WARNING
The tire inflation pressure must be at
least 32 psi (220 kPa). If it is not, do not
continue driving.
Call for road side service or towing.

TOWING
Towing Service
OCN7N081095LOCN7N081095LIf emergency towing is necessary, have 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
• Do not tow the vehicle with the front
wheels on the ground as this may
cause damage to the vehicle.
OCN7N081097LOCN7N081097L
• Do not tow with sling-type
equipment. Use a wheel lift or
flatbed equipment.
OCN7N081096LOCN7N081096L
• Do not tow the vehicle with four
wheels in contact with the ground if
it is the vehicle equipped with dual
clutch transmission.
Otherwise, the transmission will be
seriously damaged. Also, make sure
not to tow the vehicle connecting it
with other vehicles including camper
vans.

WARNING
If your vehicle is equipped with a
rollover sensor, set the Engine Start/
Stop button in the OFF or ACC position
when the vehicle is being towed.
The side impact and curtain air bag
may deploy if the sensor detects the
situation as a rollover.
OCN7N081098LOCN7N081098L
When towing your vehicle in an
emergency without wheel dollies:
1. Set the Engine Start/Stop button in the ACC position.
2. Place the shift lever in N (Neutral).
3. Release the parking brake.
CAUTION
Failure to place the shift lever in N
(Neutral) when being towed with the
front wheels on the ground can cause
internal damage to the transmission.
Emergency Towing
If towing is necessary, have it done by
an authorized HYUNDAI dealer or a
commercial tow truck service.

1. Open the trunk, and remove the towing hook from the tool case.
OCN7N081007NOCN7N081007N
2. Remove the hole cover by pressing the lower part of the cover on the
bumper.
3. Install the towing hook by turning it clockwise into the hole until it is fully
secured.
4. Remove the towing hook and install the cover after use.

If towing is necessary, have it done by
an authorized HYUNDAI dealer or a
commercial tow truck service.
If towing service is not available in
an emergency, your vehicle may be
temporarily towed using a cable or chain
secured to the emergency towing 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.
CAUTION
The driver must be in the vehicle for
steering and braking operations when
the vehicle is being towed. Passengers
other than the driver must not be in the
vehicle.
Always follow these emergency towing
precautions:
• Set the Engine Start/Stop button 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 performance.
• 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
frequently.
• Before emergency towing, check that the hook is not broken or damaged.
• Fasten the towing cable or chain securely to the hook.
• Do not jerk the hook. Apply steady and even force.
