2023 HYUNDAI SONATA TPMS

Emergency Situations
7-10
Low Tire Pressure Telltale
Low Tire Pressure LCD Display
with Position Indicator
ODN8049019L
When the tire pressure monitoring
system warning indicators are
illuminated and the warning message
is displayed on the cluster LCD
display, one or more of your tires is
significantly under-inflated. The LCD
position indicator will indicate which
tire is significantly under-inflated by
illuminating the corresponding position
light.
If any of your tire pressures are indicated
as being low, immediately reduce
your speed, avoid hard cornering, and
anticipate increased stopping distances.
You should stop and check your tires
as soon as possible. Inflate the tires to
the proper pressure as indicated on the
vehicle’s placard or tire inflation pressure
label located on the driver’s side center
pillar outer panel.
If you cannot reach a service station or
if the tire cannot hold the newly added
air, replace the low pressure tire with the
spare tire. (if equipped)
The Low Tire Pressure LCD position
indicator will remain on and the TPMS
Malfunction Indicator may blink for one
minute and then remain illuminated until
you have the low pressure tire repaired
and replaced on the vehicle.
NOTICE
The spare tire is not equipped with a
tire pressure sensor.
CAUTION
In winter or cold weather, the Low Tire
Pressure Telltale may be illuminated if
the tire pressure was adjusted to the
recommended tire inflation pressure
in warm weather. It does not mean
your TPMS is malfunctioning because
the decreased temperature leads to a
proportional lowering of tire pressure.
When you drive your vehicle from a
warm area to a cold area or from a cold
area to a warm area, or the outside
temperature is greatly higher or lower,
you should check the tire inflation
pressure and adjust the tires to the
recommended tire inflation pressure.
WARNING
Low pressure damage
Significantly low tire pressure makes
the vehicle unstable and can contribute
to loss of vehicle control and increased
braking distances.
Continued driving on low pressure tires
can cause the tires to overheat and fail.

7-11
TPMS 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 individual tire pressures
in the cluster LCD display will not be
available. Have the system checked by
an authorized HYUNDAI dealer as soon as possible.
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 LCD position indicator 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. (if equipped)
CAUTION
It is recommended that you do not use a
puncture-repairing agent not approved
by HYUNDAI dealer to repair and/or
inflate a low pressure tire. Tire sealant
not approved by HYUNDAI dealer may
damage the tire pressure sensor.
The spare tire 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 LCD position indicator 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 20 minutes. Once the
original tire equipped.
Once the original tire equipped with
a tire pressure monitoring sensor is
reinflated to the recommended pressure
and reinstalled on the vehicle, the Low
Tire Pressure LCD position indicator and
TPMS Malfunction Indicator will go off
within a few minutes of driving.
If the indicators do not disappear after a
few minutes, please visit an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.

Emergency Situations
7-12
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 the tire’s inflation
pressure. 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.
