If you Have a Flat Tire While
Driving
If a tire goes flat while you are driving:
• Take your foot off the accelerator pedal and let the vehicle slow down
while driving straight ahead. Do not
apply the brakes immediately or
attempt to pull off the road as this
may cause loss of vehicle control
resulting in an accident. When the
vehicle has slowed to such a speed
that it is safe to do so, brake carefully
and pull off the road. Drive off the
road as far as possible and park on
firm, level ground. If you are on a
divided highway, do not park in the
median area between the two traffic
lanes.
• When the vehicle is stopped, press the hazard warning flasher button, move
the shift lever into P (Park), and apply
the parking brake, and set the Engine
Start/Stop button in the OFF position.
• Have all passengers get out of the vehicle. Be sure they all get out on the
side of the vehicle that is away from
traffic.
• When changing a flat tire, follow the instructions provided later in this
chapter.
IF THE ENGINE WILL NOT
START
If the Engine Doesn’t Turn Over
or Turns Over Slowly
• Be sure the shift lever is in N (Neutral) or P (Park). The engine starts only
when the shift lever is in N (Neutral) or
P (Park).
• Check the battery connections to be sure they are clean and tight.
• Turn on the interior light. If the light dims or goes out when you operate
the starter, the battery is drained.
Do not push or pull the vehicle to start it.
This could cause damage to your vehicle.
See instructions for “Jump Starting”
provided in this chapter.
CAUTION
Push or pull starting the vehicle may
cause the catalytic converter to
overload which can lead to damage to
the emission control system.
If the Engine Turns Over
Normally but Doesn’t Start
Check the fuel level and add fuel if
necessary.
If the engine still does not start, have
your vehicle checked by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.

Jump starting procedure
1. Position the vehicles close enough that the jumper cables will reach, but
do not allow the vehicles to touch.
2. Avoid fans or any moving parts in the engine compartment at all times, even
when the vehicles are turned off.
3. Turn off all electrical devices such as radios, lights, air conditioning, etc.
Put the vehicle in P (Park), and set the
parking brakes. Turn both vehicles
OFF.
OCN7N081001NOCN7N081001N
4. Open the engine hood.
5. Connect the jumper cables in the exact sequence shown in the
illustration. First connect one jumper
cable to the red, positive (+) jumper
terminal of your vehicle (1).
6. Connect the other end of the jumper cable to the red, positive (+) battery/
jumper terminal of the assisting
vehicle (2).
7. Connect the second jumper cable to the black, negative (-) battery/jumper
terminal of the assisting vehicle (3). 8. Connect the other end of the second
jumper cable to the black, negative (-)
chassis ground of your vehicle (4).
Do not allow the jumper cables to
contact anything except the correct
battery or jumper terminals or the
correct ground. Do not lean over the
battery when making connections.
CAUTION
Before jump starting, make sure to
correctly identify the positive (+) and
negative (-) terminals to avoid reverse
polarity connections.
WARNING
Do not connect the jumper cable to
the negative (-) jumper terminal of the
discharged battery. A spark could cause
the battery to explode and lead to a
personal injury or vehicle damage.
9. Operate your vehicle for at least 30 minutes of driving or at least
60 minutes of engine running at
idle before shutting off the engine.
Without sufficient time to charge
the battery the vehicle will reoccur
another no start. You can also visit
your nearest dealer to request the
battery be charged and tested.
If your vehicle will not start after a few
attempts, it probably requires servicing.
In this event please seek qualified
assistance. If the cause of your battery
discharging is not apparent, have your
vehicle checked by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.

CN7 N HMA 8.indd 8-11 2021-09-06  4:18:12

Emergency Situations8-14
Each wheel is equipped with a tire
pressure sensor mounted inside the tire
behind the valve stem. You must use
TPMS specific wheels. Always have your
tires serviced by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer.
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 the tire’s inflation
pressure. 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.
Information
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.
3. Changes or modifications not expressly
approved by the party responsible
for compliance could void the user’s
authority to operate the equipment.

CAUTION
The side wall of a low aspect ratio
tire is shorter than the normal one.
Thus, the low-aspect wheel and
tire are easily damaged. Follow the
below instructions.
• When driving on a rough road or
driving off a road, be careful not
to damage the tires and wheels.
After driving, inspect the tires
and wheels.
• When passing over a pothole,
speed bump, manhole, or curb
stone, drive the vehicle slowly so
as not to damage the tires and
wheels.
• When there is an impact on a tire,
inspect the tire condition. Or,
you can contact an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
• Inspect the tire condition and
pressure every 8,000 miles
(13,000 km) to prevent tire
damage.
• It is difficult to recognize a tire
damage only with your eyes.
When there is a slight hint of a
tire damage, check and replace
the tire to prevent the damage
caused by air leakage.
• When a tire is damaged while
driving on a rough road, off a
road, or over obstacles, such as a

OTM078035OTM078035
A vehicle’s electrical system is protected
from electrical overload damage by
fuses.
This vehicle has 2 (or 3) fuse panels, one
located in the driver’s side panel bolster,
the other in the engine compartment
near the battery.
If any of your vehicle’s lights,
accessories, or controls do not work,
check the appropriate circuit fuse. If a
fuse has blown, the element inside the
fuse will be melted or broken.
If the electrical system does not work,
first check the driver’s side fuse panel.
Before replacing a blown fuse, turn the
engine and all switches off, and then
disconnect the negative battery cable.
Always replace a blown fuse with one of
the same rating.
If the replacement fuse blows, this
indicates an electrical problem.
Avoid using the system involved and
immediately consult an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
WARNING
NEVER replace a fuse with anything but
another fuse of the same rating.
• A higher capacity fuse could cause
damage and possibly cause a fire.
• Do not install a wire or aluminum
foil instead of the proper fuse -
even as a temporary repair. It may
cause extensive wiring damage and
possibly a fire.
NOTICE
Do not use a screwdriver or any other
metal object to remove fuses because
it may cause a short circuit and damage
the system.
