wheel GENESIS G80 2023 Owners Manual

8-12
Emergency Situations
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. Have your tires serviced by an
authorized retailer of Genesis Branded
products.
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.
WARNING
This device complies with Part 15 of the
FCC rules.
Operation is subject to the following
three conditions:
1. This device may not cause harmful
interference.
2. This device must accept any
interference received, including
interference that may cause
undesired operation of the device.
3. Changes or modifications not
expressly approved by the party
responsible for compliance could
void the user’s authority to operate
the device.

Emergency Situations
Notes on the Safe Use of the Tire
Mobility Kit

[Park your car at the side of the road
so that you can work with the Tire
Mobility Kit away from moving traffic.

[To be sure your vehicle will not move,
even when you’re on fairly level
ground, always set your parking brake.

[Only use the Tire Mobility Kit for
sealing/inflation passenger car tires.
Only punctured areas located within
the tread region of the tire can be
sealed using the tire mobility kit.

[Do not use on motorcycles, bicycles
or any other type of tires.

[When the tire and wheel are
damaged, do not use Tire Mobility Kit
for your safety.

[Use of the Tire Mobility Kit may not be
effective for tire damage larger than
approximately 16 inch (4 mm).

retailer of Genesis Branded products
if the tire cannot be made roadworthy
with the tire mobility kit.

[Do not use the Tire Mobility Kit if a tire
is severely damaged by driving run flat
or with insufficient air pressure.

[Do not remove any foreign objects
such as nails or screws that have
penetrated the tire.

[Provided the car is outdoors, leave the
vehicle running. Otherwise operating
the compressor may eventually drain
the car battery.

[Never leave the Tire Mobility Kit
unattended while it is being used.

[Do not leave the compressor running
for more than 10 minutes at a time or
it may overheat.
[Do not use the Tire Mobility Kit if the

(-30°C).

[In case of skin contact with the
sealant, wash the area thoroughly
with plenty of water. If the irritation
persists, seek medical attention.

[In case of eye contact with the
sealant, flush your eyes for at least 15
minutes. If the irritation persists, seek
medical attention.

[In case of swallowing the sealant,
rinse the mouth and drink plenty of
water. However, never give anything
