Immobilizer system
(if equipped)
The immobilizer system protects your
vehicle from theft. If an improperly
coded key (or other device) is used,
the engine’s fuel system is disabled.
When the ignition switch is placed in
the ON position, the immobilizer sys
tem indicator should come on briefly,
then go off. If the indicator starts to
blink, the system does not recognize
the coding of the key.
Place the ignition switch to the
LOCK/OFF position, then place the
ignition switch to the ON positionagain.
The system may not recognize your
key’s coding if another immobilizer
key or other metal object (i.e., key
chain) is near the key. The engine
may not start because the metal may
interrupt the transponder signal from
transmitting normally.
If the system repeatedly does not
recognize the coding of the key, it is
recommended that you contact your
HYUNDAI dealer. Do not attempt to alter this system or
add other devices to it. Electrical
problems could result that may make
your vehicle inoperable.
The transponder in your key is an
important part of the immobilizer sys
tem. It is designed to give years of
troublefree service, however you
should avoid exposure to moisture,
static electricity and rough handling.
Immobilizer system malfunction
could occur.
NOTICE
In order to prevent theft of your
vehicle, do not leave spare keys
anywhere in your vehicle. Your
immobilizer password is a cus
tomer unique password and
should be kept confidential.

Information
If the TPMS indicator does not illumi
nate for 3 seconds when the ignition
switch is turned to the ON position or
engine is running, or if it comes on
after blinking for approximately one
minute, we recommend that you con
tact an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.Low tire pressure tell
tale
When the tire pressure monitoring
system warning indicator is illuminat
ed, one or more of your tires is sig
nificantly underinflated.
If the telltale illuminates, immediately
reduce your speed, avoid hard cor
nering and anticipate increased stop
ping distances. You should stop and
check your tires as soon as possible.
Inflate the tires to the proper pres
sure as indicated on the vehicle’s
placard or tire inflation pressure label
located on the driver’s side center pil
lar 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.
Then the Low Tire Pressure telltale
may flash for approximately one minute and then remain continuously
illuminated after restarting and about
20 minutes of continuous drivingbefore you have the low pressure tire
repaired and replaced on the vehicle.
i
In winter or cold weather, the low
tire pressure telltale may be illumi
nated if the tire pressure was
adjusted to the recommended tire
inflation pressure in warm weath
er. It does not mean your TPMS is
malfunctioning because the
decreased temperature leads to a
proportional lowering of tire pres
sure.
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 recommend
ed tire inflation pressure.

Changing a tire with TPMS
If you have a flat tire, the Low Tire
Pressure will come on. We recom
mend that the flat tire be checked by
an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.Each wheel is equipped with a tire
pressure sensor mounted inside the
tire behind the valve stem. You must
use TPMS specific wheels. It is rec
ommended that you have your tires
serviced by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer.
Even if you replace the low pressure
tire with the spare tire, the Low Tire
Pressure Telltale will blink or remain
on until the low pressure tire is
repaired and placed on the vehicle.
After you replace the low pressure
tire with the spare tire, the Low Tire
Pressure Telltale may blink or illumi
nate after a few minutes because the
TPMS sensor mounted on the spare
wheel is not initiated.
Once the low pressure tire is reinflat
ed to the recommended pressure
and installed on the vehicle or we
recommend that the TPMS sensor
mounted on the replaced spare
wheel be initiated by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer, the TPMS mal
function indicator and the low tire
pressure telltale will extinguish within
a few minutes of driving. If the indicator is not extinguished
after a few minutes of driving, We
recommend that the system be
checked by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer.
We recommend that you use a
puncturerepairing agent
approved by HYUNDAI.
The sealant on the tire pressure
sensor and wheel shall be elemi
nated when you replace the tire
with a new one.
CAUTION
If original mounted tire is replaced
with the spare tire, the TPMS sen
sor on the replaced spare wheel
should be initiated and we recom
mend that the TPMS sensor on
the original mounted wheel be
deactivated by a HYUNDAI deal
er. If the TPMS sensor on the orig
inal mounted wheel located in the
spare tire carrier still activates, the
tire pressure monitoring system
may not operate properly. We rec
ommend that the system be serv
iced by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer.
