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.
Check and tighten the wheel lug nuts
after driving over 30 mile (50 km) if
tires are replaced. Recheck the tire
wheel lug nuts after driving over 620
mile (1,000 km).
CAUTION
Your vehicle has metric threads on the
studs and wheel bolts. Make certain
during tire changing that the same bolts
that were removed are reinstalled. If
you have to replace your wheel bolts
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.
If any of the equipment such as the jack,
wheel bolts, studs, or other equipment
is damaged or in poor condition, do not
attempt to change the tire and call for
assistance.

Emergency situations

Use of compact spare tires
(if equipped)
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 420
kPa (60 psi).
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
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 25
mm (1 inch).
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.

For safe operation, carefully read and
follow the instructions in this manual
before use.
(1) Compressor
(2) Sealant bottle
The Tire Mobility Kit is a temporary fix to
the tire and the tire should be inspected
by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer as
soon as possible.
CAUTION
When two or more tires are flat, do not
use the tire mobility kit because the
supported one sealant of Tire Mobility
Kit is only used for one flat tire.
WARNING
Do not use the Tire Mobility Kit to repair
punctures in the tire walls. This can
result in an accident due to tire failure.
WARNING
Have your tire repaired as soon as
possible. The tire may lose air pressure
at any time after inflating with the Tire
Mobility Kit.
Introduction
With the Tire Mobility Kit you stay mobile
even after experiencing a tire puncture.
The compressor and sealing compound
system effectively and comfortably seals
most punctures in a passenger car tire
caused by nails or similar objects and
reinflates the tire.
After you ensure that the tire is properly
sealed you can drive cautiously on the
tire (distance up to 120 miles (200 km))
at a max. speed of 50 mph (80 km/h))
in order to reach a service station or tire
dealer for the tire replacement.
It is possible that some tires, especially
with larger punctures or damage to the
sidewall, cannot be sealed completely.
Air pressure loss in the tire may adversely
affect tire performance.
For this reason, you should avoid abrupt
steering or other driving maneuvers,
especially if the vehicle is heavily loaded
or if a trailer is in use.
The Tire Mobility Kit is not designed
or intended as a permanent tire repair
method and is to be used for one tire
only.
This instruction shows you step by step
how to temporarily seal the puncture
simply and reliably.
Read the section “Notes on the safe use
of the Tire Mobility Kit”.
WARNING
Do not use the TMK if a tire is severely
damaged by driving run flat or with
insufficient air pressure.
Only punctured areas located within the
tread region of the tire can be sealed
using the TMK.

WARNING
Do not use the tire sealant after
the sealant has expired (i.e. past
the expiration date on the sealant
container). This can increase the risk of
tire failure.
WARNING
Keep out of reach of children.
Avoid contact with eyes.
Do not swallow.
Using the Tire Mobility Kit
WARNING
OOSH079017L
Detach the speed restriction label (1)
from the sealant bottle (2), and place
it in a highly visible place inside the
vehicle such as on the steering wheel to
remind the driver not to drive too fast.

Emergency situations
8-28
OIGH067042
1. Shake the sealant bottle (2).
2. Connect the filling hose (3) to the
sealant bottle (2) in the direction of (A)
and connect the sealant bottle to the
compressor (6) in the direction of (B).
3. Ensure that the compressor is
switched OFF.
OOS080015N
4. Unscrew the valve cap from the valve
of the defective wheel and screw the
filling hose (3) of the sealant bottle
onto the valve.
CAUTION
Securely install the sealant filling hose
to the valve. If not, sealant may flow
backward, possibly clogging the filling
hose.
OOS080002K
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. Switch on the ignition switch.
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
8). 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.

8-29
CAUTION
Do not attempt to drive your vehicle if
the tire pressure is below 200 kpa (29
psi). 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
Do not leave your vehicle running in
a poorly ventilated area for extended
periods of time. Carbon monoxide
poisoning and suffocation can occur.
Distributing the sealant
OLMF064106
10.
Immediately drive approximately 4~6
miles (7~10 km or about 10 minutes)
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.
