WHAT TO DO IN AN EMERGENCY
7
!
CAUTION:
In winter or cold weather, the low
tire pressure telltale may be illumi-
nated if the tire pressure was ad-
justed to the recommended tire in-
flation pressure in warm weather. It
does not mean your TPMS is mal-
functioning 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 ad-
just the tires to the recommended
tire inflation pressure.
WARNING:
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 will cause the tires to overheat
and fail.
TPMS (Tire Pressure Moni-
toring System) Malfunction
Indicator
The TPMS malfunction indicator comes
on and stays on when there is a
problem with the Tire Pressure Moni-
toring System. If the system is able to
correctly detect an under-inflation warn-
ing at the same time as system failure
then it will illuminate both the TPMS
malfunction and the low tire pressure
telltale e.g. if Front Left sensor fails,
the TPMS malfunction indicator turns
on, but if Front Right, Rear Left, or
!
Rear Right tire is under-inflated, the
low tire pressure telltale may turn on at
the same time as the TPMS malfunc-
tion indicator. Have the system
checked by an authorized Hyundai
dealer as soon as possible to deter-
mine the cause of the problem.
NOTE:
o The TPMS malfunction indicator
may be illuminated if the vehicle is
moving around electric power sup-
ply cables or radio transmitters
such as police stations, govern-
ment and public offices, broad-
casting stations, military installa-
tions, airports, or transmitting tow-
ers, etc. which can interfere with
normal operation of the Tire Pres-
sure Monitoring System (TPMS).
o The TPMS malfunction indicator
may be illuminated if snow chains
or some electronic devices, such
as notebook computers, are used
in the vehicle. This can interfere
with normal operation of the Tire
Pressure Monitoring System
(TPMS).

G200B02HP-AATReplacing Accessory FusesThe fuse box for the lights and other
electrical accessories will be found low
on the dashboard on the driver's side.
Inside the box you will find a list showing
the circuits protected by each fuse.
If any of your car's lights or other electrical
accessories stop working, a blown (open)
fuse could be the reason. If the fuse has
opened, you will see that the metal strip
inside the fuse has melted through. If you
suspect a blown fuse, follow this proce-
dure:1. Turn off the ignition and all other
switches.
2. Open the fuse box and examine each
fuse. Remove each fuse by pulling it
toward you (a small "fuse puller" tool is
contained in the relay and fuse box of
the engine room to simplify this opera-
tion).
3. Be sure to check all other fuses, even
if you find one that appears to have
opened.
4. Replace the blown fuse by pressing a
new fuse of the same rating into place.
The fuse should be a snug fit. If it is not,
have the fuse clip repaired or replaced
by a Hyundai dealer. If you do not
have a spare fuse, you may be able to
borrow a fuse of the same or lower
rating from an accessory you can tem-
porarily get along without (the radio or
cigarette lighter, for example). Always
remember to replace the borrowed
fuse.
