acid to contact your
eyes, skin or clothing.
If acid gets into your eyes, flush
your eyes with clean water for at
least 15 minutes and get imme-
diate medical attention. If acid
gets on your skin, thoroughly
wash the area. If you feel pain or
a burning sensation, get med-
ical attention immediately.

If your temperature gauge indicates
overheating, you experience a loss
of power, or hear loud pinging or
knocking, the engine may be over-
heating. If this happens, you should:
1. Pull off the road and stop as soon
as it is safe to do so.
2. Place the shift lever in P (Park, for
automatic transmission/dual clutch
transmission vehicle) or neutral (for
manual transmission/dual clutch
transmission vehicle) and set the
parking brake. If the air condition-
ing is ON, turn it OFF.
3. If engine coolant is running out
under the vehicle or steam is com-
ing out from the bonnet, stop the
engine. Do not open the bonnet
until the coolant has stopped run-
ning or the steaming has stopped.
If there is no visible loss of engine
coolant and no steam, leave the
engine running and check to be
sure the engine cooling fan is
operating. If the fan is not running,
turn the engine off.4. Check for coolant leaking from the
radiator, hoses or under the vehi-
cle. (If the air conditioning had been
in use, it is normal for cold water to
be draining from it when you stop.)
5. If engine coolant is leaking out, stop
the engine immediately and we rec-
ommend that you call an authorised
HYUNDAI dealer for assistance.

Whilst the engine is
running, keep hands,
clothing and tools
away from the mov-
ing parts such as the
cooling fan and drive
belt to prevent seri-
ous injury.
WARNING
NEVER remove the
radiator cap or the
drain plug whilst the
engine and radiator
are hot. Hot coolant
and steam may blow out under
pressure, causing serious injury.
Turn the engine off and wait
until the engine cools down.
Use extreme care when remov-
ing the radiator cap. Wrap a
thick towel around it, and turn it
anticlockwise slowly to the first
stop. Step back whilst the pres-
sure is released from the cool-
ing system. When you are sure
all the pressure has been
released, press down on the
cap, using a thick towel, and
continue turning anticlockwise
to remove it.
WARNING

What to do in an emergency
TPMS (Tyre Pressure
Monitoring System)
malfunction indicator
The TPMS malfunction indicator will
illuminate after it blinks for approxi-
mately one minute when there is a
problem with the Tyre Pressure
Monitoring System.
We recommend that the system be
checked by an authorised HYUNDAI
dealer.
If there is a malfunction with the
TPMS, the low tyre pressure posi-
tion telltale will not be displayed
even though the vehicle has an
under-inflated tyre.The TPMS Malfunction Indicator
may illuminate after blinking for
one minute if the vehicle is near
electric power supply cables or
radio transmitters such as police
stations, government and public
offices, broadcasting stations,
military installations, airports,
transmitting towers, etc.
Additionally, the TPMS Malfunction
Indicator may illuminate if snow
chains are used or electronic
devices such as computers, charg-
ers, remote starters, navigation,
etc. This may interfere with normal
operation of the TPMS.
Changing a tyre with TPMS
If you have a flat tyre, the low Tyre
Pressure and Position telltales will
come on. We recommend that the
flat tyre be repaired by an authorised
HYUNDAI dealer as soon as possi-
ble or replace the flat tyre with the
spare tire.
The spare tyre (if equipped) does not
come with a tyre pressure monitoring
sensor. When the low pressure tyre
or the flat tyre is replaced with the
spare tyre, the Low Tyre Pressure
Telltale will remain on.
NOTICE
NOTICE
NEVER use a puncture-repair-
ing agent to repair and/or inflate
a low pressure tyre. The tyre
sealant can damage the tyre
pressure sensor. If used, you
will have to replace the tyre
pressure sensor.
CAUTION

6-16
What to do in an emergency
If it is hard to loosen the tyre hold-
down wing bolt by hand, you can
loosen it easily using the jack handle.
1. Put the jack handle (1) inside of
the tyre hold-down wing bolt.
2. Turn the tyre hold-down wing bolt
anticlockwise with the jack handle.
When you remove or store the
spare tyre, do not contact or bump
the battery with the spare tyre.
Contacting or bumping the battery
may cause failure of electrical cir-
cuits.
Changing tyres
NOTICE
Never attempt vehicle repairs
in the traffic lanes of a public
road or highway.
Always move the vehicle com-
pletely off the road and onto
the shoulder before trying to
change a tyre. The jack should
be used on firm level ground.
If you cannot find a firm level
place off the road, call a tow-
ing service company for
assistance.
Be sure to use the correct
front and rear jacking posi-
tions on the vehicle; never
use the bumpers or any other
part of the vehicle for jacking
support.
The vehicle can easily roll off
the jack causing serious
injury or death.
(Continued)
WARNING
(Continued)
Do not get under a vehicle
that is supported by a jack.
No person should place any
portion of their body under a
vehicle that is supported by a
jack.
Chock the wheel diagonally
opposite the flat tyre.
Do not start or run the engine
whilst the vehicle is on the
jack.
Do not allow anyone to remain
in the vehicle whilst it is on
the jack.
Make sure any children pres-
ent are in a secure place away
from the road and from the
vehicle to be raised with the
jack.

What to do in an emergency
Use of compact spare tyres
(if equipped)
Compact spare tyres are designed
for emergency use only. Drive care-
fully on the compact spare tyre and
always follow the safety precautions.When driving with the compact spare
tyre mounted to your vehicle:
Check the tyre pressure after
installing the compact spare tyre.
The compact spare tyre should be
inflated to 420 kPa (60 psi).
Do not take this vehicle through an
automatic car wash whilst the com-
pact spare tyre is installed.
Do not use the compact spare tyre
on any other vehicle because this
tyre has been designed especially
for your vehicle.
The compact spare tyre’s tread life
is shorter than a regular tyre.
Inspect your compact spare tyre
regularly and replace worn compact
spare tyres with the same size and
design, mounted on the same
wheel.
Do not use more than one compact
spare tyre at a time.
Do not tow a trailer whilst the com-
pact spare tyre is installed.
Do not tow a trailer while the com-
pact spare tyre is installed.When the original tyre and wheel
are repaired and reinstalled on the
vehicle, the wheel nut torque must
be set correctly. The correct wheel
nut tightening torque is 11~13
kgf·m.
NOTICE
To prevent compact spare tyre
failure and loss of control pos-
sibly resulting in an accident:
Use the compact spare tyre
only in an emergency.
NEVER operate your vehicle
over 80 km/h.
Do not exceed the vehicle’s
maximum load rating or the
load carrying capacity shown
on the sidewall of the com-
pact spare tyre.
Do not use the compact spare
tyre continuously. Repair or
replace the original tyre as
soon as possible to avoid fail-
ure of the compact spare tyre.

What to do in an emergency
Towing service
If emergency towing is necessary,
we recommend having it done by an
authorised HYUNDAI dealer or a
commercial tow-truck service.
Proper lifting and towing procedures
are necessary to prevent damage to
the vehicle. The use of wheel dollies
or flatbed is recommended.It is acceptable to tow the vehicle
with the rear wheels on the ground
(without dollies) and the front wheels
off the ground.
If any of the loaded wheels or sus-
pension components are damaged
or the vehicle is being towed with the
front wheels on the ground, use a
towing dolly under the front wheels.
When being towed by a commercial
tow truck and wheel dollies are not
used, the front of the vehicle should
always be lifted, not the rear.

Emergency towing
If towing is necessary, we recommend
you have it done by an authorised
HYUNDAI dealer or a commercial tow
truck service.If a towing service is not available in
an emergency, your vehicle may be
temporarily towed using a cable or
chain secured to the emergency tow-
ing hook at the front (or rear) of the
vehicle.
Use extreme caution when towing
the vehicle with a cable or chain. A
driver must be in the vehicle to steer
it and operate the brakes.
Towing in this manner may be done
only on hard-surfaced roads for a
short distance and at low speeds.
Also, the wheels, axles, power train,
steering and brakes must all be in
good condition.Always follow these emergency tow-
ing precautions:
Place the ignition switch in the ACC
position so the steering wheel is not
locked.
Place the shift lever in N (Neutral).
Release the parking brake.
Depress the brake pedal with more
force than normal as you will have
reduced braking performance.
More steering effort will be required
because the power steering system
will be disabled.
Use a vehicle heavier than your
own to tow your vehicle.
The drivers of both vehicles should
communicate with each other fre-
quently.
Before emergency towing, check
that the hook is not broken or dam-
aged.
Fasten the towing cable or chain
securely to the hook.
Do not jerk the hook. Apply steady
and even force.

Use a towing cable or chain less
than 5 m long. Attach a white or red
cloth (about 30 cm wide) in the
middle of the cable or chain for
easy visibility.
Drive carefully so the towing cable
or chain remains tight during towing.
Before towing, check the automatic
transmission/dual clutch transmis-
sion for fluid leaks under your vehi-
cle. If the automatic transmission
fluid is leaking, flatbed equipment
or a towing dolly must be used.Accelerate or decelerate the vehi-
cle in a slow and gradual manner
while maintaining tension on the
tow rope or chain to start or drive
the vehicle, otherwise tow hooks
and the vehicle may be damaged.
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 and drive less than 1.5
km when towing to avoid seri-
ous damage to the automatic
transmission/dual clutch trans-
mission.
