8-13
If the indicators do not extinguish after a
few minutes, please visit an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
Each wheel is equipped with a tire
pressure sensor mounted inside the tire
behind the valve stem (except for the
spare tire). You must use TPMS specific
wheels. It is recommended that you
always have your tires serviced by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
You may not be able to identify a tire
with low pressure by simply looking at it.
Always use a good quality tire pressure
gauge to measure. Please note that a tire
that is hot (from being driven) will have a
higher pressure measurement than a tire
that is cold.
A cold tire means the vehicle has been
sitting for 3 hours and driven for less
than 1 mile (1.6 km) in that 3 hour period.
Allow the tire to cool before measuring
the inflation pressure. Always be sure
the tire is cold before inflating to the
recommended pressure.
WARNING
• The TPMS cannot alert you to severe
and sudden tire damage caused by
external factors such as nails or road
debris.
• If you feel any vehicle instability,
immediately take your foot off
the accelerator, apply the brakes
gradually with light force, and slowly
move to a safe position off the road.
WARNING
Tampering with, modifying, or disabling
the Tire Pressure Monitoring System
(TPMS) components may interfere
with the system’s ability to warn the
driver of low tire pressure conditions
and/or TPMS malfunctions. Tampering
with, modifying, or disabling the Tire
Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)
components may void the warranty for
that portion of the vehicle.

This measurement is approximately
1.2 inches (30 mm). Before removing
the wheellug nuts, make sure the
vehicle is stable and that there is no
chance for movement or slippage.
9. Loosen the lug nuts with the wheel
lug nut wrench and remove them with
your fingers. Remove the wheel from
the studs and lay it flat on the ground
out of the way. Remove any dirt or
debris from the studs, mounting
mounting surfaces and wheel.
WARNING
Wheels may have sharp edges. Handle
them carefully to avoid possible severe
injury. Before putting the wheel into
place, be sure that there is nothing on
the hub or wheel (such as mud, tar,
gravel, etc.) that interferes with the
wheel from fitting solidly against the
hub.
If there is, remove it. If there is not
good contact on the mounting surface
between the wheel and hub, the wheel
nuts could come loose and cause the
loss of a wheel. Loss of a wheel may
result in loss of control of the vehicle.
This may cause serious injury or death.

have an authorized HYUNDAI dealer
tighten the wheel nuts to their proper
torque as soon as possible. The wheel
nuts should be tightened to 79~94
lbf.ft (11~13 kgf.m).
If you have a tire gauge, check the
tire pressure (see “Tires and Wheels”
section 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.
NOTICE
Check the tire pressure as soon as
possible after installing a spare tire.
Adjust it to the recommended pressure.
CAUTION
Your vehicle has metric threads on the
studs and wheel nuts. Make certain
during tire changing that the same nuts
that were removed are reinstalled. If
you have to replace your wheel nuts
make sure they have metric threads to
avoid damaging the studs and ensure
the wheel is properly secured to the
hub. Consult an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer for assistance.
WARNING
Wheel studs
If the studs are damaged, they may lose
their ability to retain the wheel. This
could lead to the loss of the wheel and a
collision resulting in serious injuries.
If any of the equipment such as the jack,
wheel 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
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 50
mph (80 km/h).
• 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.
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 60 psi
(420 kPa).
• 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.
Information
When the original tire and wheel are
repaired and reinstalled on the vehicle, the
wheel nuts torque must be set correctly.
The correct wheel nuts tightening torque
is 79~94 lbf.ft (11~13 kgf.m).
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 1
inch (25 mm).
• 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.
