Tire Pressure Monitoring System
 WARNING
Over-inflation or under-inflation can  
reduce tire life, adversely affect vehicle 
handling, and lead to sudden tire failure 
that may cause loss of vehicle control 
resulting in an accident. 
Each tire, including the spare (if  
provided), should be checked monthly 
when cold and inflated to the inflation 
pressure recommended by the vehicle 
manufacturer on the vehicle placard 
or tire inflation pressure label. (If your 
vehicle has tires of a different size than 
the size indicated on the vehicle placard 
or tire inflation pressure label, you should 
determine the proper tire inflation 
pressure for those tires.) 
As an added safety feature, your  
vehicle has been equipped with a tire 
pressure monitoring system (TPMS) 
that illuminates a low tire pressure 
telltale when one or more of your tires is 
significantly under-inflated. Accordingly, 
when the low tire pressure telltale 
illuminates, you should stop and check 
your tires as soon as possible, and inflate 
them to the proper pressure. Driving on 
a significantly under-inflated tire causes 
the tire to overheat and can lead to tire 
failure. 
Under-inflation also reduces fuel  
efficiency and tire tread life, and may 
affect the vehicle’s handling and 
stopping ability. 
Please note that the TPMS is not a  
substitute for proper tire maintenance, 
and it is the driver’s responsibility to 
maintain correct tire pressure, even if 
under-inflation has not reached the level 
to trigger illumination of the TPMS low 
tire pressure telltale.
Your vehicle has also been equipped with  
a TPMS malfunction indicator to indicate 
when the system is not operating 
properly. The TPMS malfunction 
indicator is combined with the low 
tire pressure telltale. When the system 
detects a malfunction, the telltale will 
flash for approximately one minute and 
then remain continuously illuminated. 
This sequence will continue upon 
subsequent vehicle start-ups as long as 
the malfunction exists. 
When the malfunction indicator is  
illuminated, the system may not be able 
to detect or signal low tire pressure as 
intended. TPMS malfunctions may occur 
for a variety of reasons, including the 
installation of replacement or alternate 
tires or wheels on the vehicle that 
prevent the TPMS from functioning 
properly. 
Always check the TPMS malfunction  
telltale after replacing one or more tires 
or wheels on your vehicle to ensure that 
the replacement or alternate tires and 
wheels allow the TPMS to continue to 
function properly.
NOTICE
If any of the below happens, have  
the system checked by an authorized 
HYUNDAI dealer. 
1.  The Low Tire Pressure Telltale/ TPMS  Malfunction Indicator does not  
illuminate for 3 seconds when the 
Start/Stop button is pressed to the 
ON position or when the vehicle is running.
2.  The TPMS Malfunction Indicator  remains illuminated after blinking for 
approximately 1 minute.
3.  The Low Tire Pressure Position  Telltale remains illuminated. 

Emergency Situations

TPMS (Tire Pressure  
Monitoring System) 
Malfunction Indicator
The TPMS Malfunction Indicator  
will illuminate after it blinks for 
approximately one minute when there 
is a problem with the Tire Pressure 
Monitoring System. 
Have the system checked by an  
authorized HYUNDAI dealer as soon as possible.
NOTICE
If there is a malfunction with the TPMS,  
the Low Tire Pressure Position Telltale 
will not be displayed even though the 
vehicle has an under-inflated tire.
NOTICE
The TPMS Malfunction Indicator may  
illuminate after blinking for one minute 
if the vehicle is near electric power 
supply cables or radio transmitters 
such as police stations, government 
and public offices, broadcasting 
stations, military installations, airports, 
transmitting towers, etc. 
Additionally, the TPMS Malfunction  
Indicator may illuminate if snow chains 
are used or electronic devices such as 
computers, chargers, remote starters, 
navigation, etc. This may interfere with 
normal operation of the TPMS.
Changing a Tire with TPMS
If you have a flat tire, the Low Tire  
Pressure and Position telltales will come 
on. Have the flat tire repaired by an 
authorized HYUNDAI dealer as soon as 
possible or replace the flat tire with the 
spare tire.
NOTICE
It is recommended that you do not use a  
puncture-repairing agent not approved 
by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer or the 
equivalent specified for your vehicle 
to repair and/or inflate a low pressure 
tire. Tire sealant not approved by an 
authorized HYUNDAI dealer or the 
equivalent specified for your vehicle 
may damage the tire pressure sensor. 
The spare tire (if equipped) does not  
come with a tire pressure monitoring 
sensor. When the low pressure tire or 
the flat tire is replaced with the spare 
tire, the Low Tire Pressure Telltale will 
remain on. Also, the TPMS Malfunction 
Indicator will illuminate after blinking 
for one minute if the vehicle is driven 
at speed above 25 km/h (15.5 mph) for 
approximately 10 minutes. Once the original wheel equipped with  
a tire pressure monitoring sensor is 
reinflated to the recommended pressure 
and reinstalled on the vehicle, the 
Low Tire Pressure Telltale and TPMS 
Malfunction Indicator will go off within a 
few minutes of driving. 
If the indicators do not extinguish after  
a few minutes, consult 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 1.6 km (1 mile) 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.

Owner Maintenance Schedule
When you stop for charging: •	Check the coolant level in the coolant  
reservoir.
•	 Check the windshield washer fluid 
level.
•	 Check for low or under-inflated tires.
 WARNING
Be careful when checking your coolant  
level when the motor compartment is 
hot. This may result in coolant being 
blown out of the opening and cause 
serious burns and other injuries. 
While operating your vehicle: •	 Check for vibrations in the steering  
wheel. Notice if there is any increased 
steering effort or looseness in the 
steering wheel, or change in its 
straight-ahead position.
•	 Notice if your vehicle constantly turns 
slightly or “pulls” to one side when 
traveling on smooth, level road.
•	 When stopping, listen and check for 
unusual sounds, pulling to one side, 
increased brake pedal travel or “hard-
to-push” brake pedal.
•	 If any slipping or changes in the 
operation of your gear shift occurs, 
check the shift gear fluid level.
•	 Check the shift gear P (Park) function.
•	 Check the parking brake.
•	 Check for fluid leaks under your 
vehicle (water dripping from the air 
conditioning system during or after use is normal). At least monthly: •	
Check coolant level in the coolant  
reservoir.
•	 Check the operation of all exterior 
lights, including the stoplights, turn 
signals and hazard warning flashers.
•	 Check the inflation pressures of all 
tires including the spare for tires that 
are worn, show uneven wear, or are damaged.
•	 Check for loose wheel lug nuts.
At least twice a year: (for example,  
every Spring and Autumn) •	 Check radiator, heater and air  
conditioning hoses for leaks or damage.
•	 Check windshield washer spray and 
wiper operation. Clean wiper blades 
with a clean cloth dampened with 
washer fluid.
•	 Check headlamp alignment.
•	 Check the seat belts for wear and function.
At least once a year: •	 Clean body and door drain holes.
•	 Lubricate door hinges and hood  hinges.
•	 Lubricate door and hood locks and 
latches.
•	 Lubricate door rubber weather strips.
•	 Check the air conditioning system.
•	 Inspect and lubricate shift gear 
linkage and controls.
•	 Clean the battery (12V) and terminals.

 WARNING
Tire failure may cause loss of vehicle  
control resulting in an accident. To 
reduce risk of SERIOUS INJURY or 
DEATH, take the following precautions: •	 Inspect your tires monthly for proper  
inflation as well as wear and damage.
•	 The recommended cold tire pressure 
for your vehicle can be found in this 
manual and on the tire label located 
on the driver’s side center pillar. 
Always use a tire pressure gauge to 
measure tire pressure. Tires with 
too much or too little pressure wear 
unevenly causing poor handling.
•	 Check the pressure of the spare 
every time you check the pressure of 
the other tires on your vehicle.
•	 Replace tires that are worn, show 
uneven wear, or are damaged. 
Worn tires can cause loss of braking 
effectiveness, steering control, or 
traction.
•	 ALWAYS replace tires with the 
same size, type, construction and 
tread pattern as each tire that was 
originally supplied with this vehicle. 
Using tires and wheels other than 
the recommended sizes could cause 
unusual handling characteristics, 
poor vehicle control, or negatively 
affect your vehicle’s Anti-Lock Brake 
System (ABS) resulting in a serious 
accident.Tire Care
For proper maintenance, safety, and  
maximum electric energy economy, you 
must always maintain recommended 
tire inflation pressures and stay within 
the load limits and weight distribution 
recommended for your vehicle.
OJK010021
All specifications (sizes and pressures)  
can be found on a label attached to the 
driver’s side center pillar.
Recommended Cold Tire  
Inflation Pressures
All tire pressures (including the spare)  
should be checked when the tires are 
cold. “Cold tires” means the vehicle has 
not been driven for at least three hours 
or driven less than one mile (1.6 km). 
Warm tires normally exceed  
recommended cold tire pressures by 28 
to 41 kPa (4 to 6 psi). Do not release air 
from warm tires to adjust the pressure 
or the tires will be under-inflated. For 
recommended inflation pressure, refer to 
“Tire and Wheels” section in chapter 2.

 WARNING
Recommended pressures must be  
maintained for the best ride, vehicle 
handling, and minimum tire wear. 
Over-inflation or under-inflation can  
reduce tire life, adversely affect vehicle 
handling, and lead to sudden tire failure 
that could result in loss of vehicle 
control resulting in an accident. 
Severe under-inflation can lead to  
severe heat build-up, causing blowouts, 
tread separation and other tire failures 
that can result in the loss of vehicle 
control resulting in an accident. This 
risk is much higher on hot days and 
when driving for long periods at high speeds.
 CAUTION
•	 Under-inflation results in excessive  
wear, poor handling and reduced 
electric energy economy. Wheel 
deformation is also possible. Keep 
your tire pressures at the proper 
levels. If a tire frequently needs 
refilling, have it checked by an 
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
•	 Over-inflation produces a harsh ride, 
excessive wear at the center of the 
tire tread, and a greater possibility of 
damage from road hazards.
Check Tire Inflation Pressure
Check your tires, including the spare tire,  
once a month or more. 
How to check 
Use a good quality tire pressure gauge  
to check tire pressure. You can not tell 
if your tires are properly inflated simply 
by looking at them. Radial tires may look 
properly inflated when they are under-
inflated. 
Remove the valve cap from the tire valve  
stem. Press the tire gauge firmly onto the 
valve to get a pressure measurement. If 
the cold tire inflation pressure matches 
the recommended pressure on the 
tire and loading information label, no 
further adjustment is necessary. If the 
pressure is low, add air until you reach 
the recommended pressure. Make sure 
to put the valve caps back on the valve 
stems. Without the valve cap, dirt or 
moisture could get into the valve core 
and cause air leakage. If a valve cap is 
missing, install a new one as soon as possible. 
If you overfill the tire, release air by  
pushing on the metal stem in the 
center of the tire valve. Recheck the tire 
pressure with the tire gauge. Be sure 
to put the valve caps back on the valve 
stems. Without the valve cap, dirt or 
moisture could get into the valve core 
and cause air leakage. If a valve cap is 
missing, install a new one as soon as possible. 

Maintenance
9-24
Tire Rotation
To equalize tread wear, HYUNDAI  
recommends that the tires be rotated 
every 5,000 miles (8,000 km) or sooner if 
irregular wear develops. 
During rotation, check the tires for  
correct balance. 
When rotating tires, check for uneven  
wear and damage. Abnormal wear is 
usually caused by incorrect tire pressure, 
improper wheel alignment, out-of-
balance wheels, severe braking or severe 
cornering. Look for bumps or bulges in 
the tread or side of the tire. Replace the 
tire if you find any of these conditions. 
Replace the tire if fabric or cord is visible. 
After rotation, be sure to bring the front 
and rear tire pressures to specification 
and check wheel lug nut tightness 
(proper torque is 11~13kgf·m (79~94 
lbf·ft).
OHI078078
Disc brake pads should be inspected for  
wear whenever tires are rotated.
 Information
The outside and inside of the  
unsymmetrical tire is distinguishable. 
When installing an unsymmetrical tire, be 
sure to install the side marked “outside” face the outside. If the side marked “inside” is installed on the outside, it will have a negative effect on vehicle performance.
 WARNING
•	 Do not use the compact spare tire for  
tire rotation.
•	 Do not mix bias ply and radial ply 
tires under any circumstances. 
This may cause unusual handling 
characteristics that may cause loss 
of vehicle control resulting in an 
accident.
