What to do in an emergency
If any of the below happens, have
the system checked by an author-
ized HYUNDAI dealer.
1. The Low Tire Pressure TPMSMalfunction Indicator does not
illuminate for 3 seconds when
the ignition switch is placed tothe ON position or engine isrunning.
2. The TPMS Malfunction Indicator remains illuminated after blink-
ing for approximately 1 minute.
3. The Low Tire Pressure LCD dis- play remains illuminated
Low Tire Pressure
Telltale
Low Tire Pressure LCD
Display with Position Indicator
When the tire pressure monitoring
system warning indicators are illumi-
nated and the warning message is
displayed on the cluster LCD display,
one or more of your tires is signifi-
cantly under-inflated. The LCD posi-tion indicator will indicate which tire
is significantly under-inflated by illu-minating the corresponding positionlight. If any of your tire pressures are indi-
cated as being low, immediately
reduce your speed, avoid hard cor-
nering, and anticipate increased
stopping distances. You should stop
and check your tires as soon as pos-
sible. Inflate the tires to the proper
pressure as indicated on the vehi-
cle’s placard or tire inflation pressure
label located on the driver's side cen-ter 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.
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 lowpressure tire repaired and replaced
on the vehicle. The spare tire is not equipped with
a tire pressure sensor.

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. If there is a malfunction with the
TPMS, the individual tire pres-
sures in the cluster LCD display
will not be available. Have the sys-
tem checked by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer as soon as possi-
ble.
NOTICE
In winter or cold weather, the
Low Tire Pressure Telltale maybe illuminated if the tire pres-sure was adjusted to the recom-mended tire inflation pressure
in warm weather. It does not
mean your TPMS is malfunc-tioning because the decreased
temperature leads to a propor-
tional 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 inflationpressure and adjust the tires tothe recommended tire inflation
pressure.
CAUTION
Low pressure damage
Significantly low tire pressure
makes the vehicle unstable and
can contribute to loss of vehicle
control and increased brakingdistances.
Continued driving on low pres- sure tires can cause the tires to
overheat and fail.
WARNING

You may not be able identify a tire
with low pressure by simply looking
at it. Always use a good quality tirepressure gage to measure the tire's
inflation pressure. Please note that a
tire that is hot (from being driven) will
have a higher pressure measure-ment than a tire that is cold.
A cold tire means the vehicle has
been sitting for 3 hours and driven forless than 1.6 km (1 mile) in that 3
hour period.
Allow the tire to cool before measur-
ing the inflation pressure. Always be
sure the tire is cold before inflating to
the recommended pressure.Information
This device complies with Industry
Canada RSS-210 standard.
Operation is subject to the following
three conditions:

What to do in an emergency
If any of the equipment such as the
jack, lug nuts, studs, or other equip-ment is damaged or in poor condi-tion, do not attempt to change the
tire and call for assistance.
Use of compact spare tires
Compact spare tires are designed for
emergency use only. Drive carefullyon the compact spare tire and
always follow the safety precautions.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 com-pact spare tire is installed.
Do not use the compact spare tire on any other vehicle because thistire 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 com-
pact spare tires with the same sizeand design, mounted on the samewheel.
Do not use more than one compact spare tire at a time.
Do not tow a trailer while the com- pact spare tire is installed.
When the original tire and wheelare repaired and reinstalled on the
vehicle, the lug nut torque must be
set correctly. The correct lug nut
tightening torque is 11~13 kgf·m(79~94 lbf·ft).
NOTICE
Your vehicle has metric threads
on the studs and lug nuts. Make
certain during tire changing
that the same nuts that were
removed are reinstalled. If you
have to replace your lug nuts
make sure they have metric
threads to avoid damaging thestuds and ensure the wheel is
properly secured to the hub.
Consult an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer for assistance.
CAUTION
To prevent compact spare tire
failure and loss of control pos-
sibly resulting in an accident:
Use the compact spare tire
only in an emergency.
NEVER operate your vehicle
over 80 km/h (50 mph).
Do not exceed the vehicle's
maximum load rating or the
load carrying capacity shown
on the sidewall of the com-
pact spare tire.
Do not use the compact spare
tire continuously. Repair orreplace the original tire as
soon as possible to avoid fail-
ure of the compact spare tire.

Use a towing cable or chain lessthan 5 m (16 feet) long. Attach a white or red cloth (about 30 cm (12inch) wide) in the middle of the
cable or chain for easy visibility.
Drive carefully so the towing cable or chain remains tight during tow-ing.
Before towing, check the automat- ic transmission/dual clutch trans-
mission for fluid leaks under your
vehicle. If the automatic transmis-
sion/dual clutch transmission fluidis leaking, flatbed equipment or a
towing dolly must be used.
Tie-down Hook
To avoid damage to your vehicle
and vehicle components when
towing:
Always pull straight ahead
when using the towing hooks.
Do not pull from the side or at
a vertical angle.
Do not use the towing hooks to
pull a vehicle out of mud, sand
or other conditions from which
the vehicle cannot be driven
out under its own power.
Limit the vehicle speed to 15 km/h (10 mph) and driveless than 1.5 km (1 mile) when
towing to avoid serious dam-
age to the automatic transmis-
sion/dual clutch transmission.
CAUTION
Do not use the tie-down hook(s)
for towing purposes. If the tie-
down hook(s) are used for tow-
ing, the tie-down hook(s) or
bumper will be damaged and
this could lead to serious injury.
