Wheel nut tightening torque:
Steel wheel & aluminum alloy wheel:9~11 kg·m (65~79 lb·ft)
If you have a tire gauge, remove the
valve cap and check the air pressure.
If the pressure is lower than recom-
mended, drive slowly to the nearest
service station and inflate to the cor-
rect pressure. If it is too high, adjust
it until it is correct. Always reinstall
the valve cap after checking or
adjusting tire pressure. If the cap is
not replaced, air may leak from the
tire. If you lose a valve cap, buyanother and install it as soon as pos-
sible.
After you have changed wheels,
always secure the flat tire in its place
and return the jack and tools to their
proper storage locations. To prevent the jack, jack handle,
wheel lug nut wrench and spare tire
from rattling while the vehicle is in
motion, store them properly.CAUTION
Your vehicle has metric threads
on the wheel studs and nuts.Make certain during wheel removal that the same nuts thatwere removed are reinstalled -or, if replaced, that nuts with metric threads and the samechamfer configuration are used.Installation of a non-metric thread nut on a metric stud orvice-versa will not secure thewheel to the hub properly andwill damage the stud so that it must be replaced.
Note that most lug nuts do nothave metric threads. Be sure touse extreme care in checking for thread style before installingaftermarket lug nuts or wheels.If in doubt, consult an author-ized HYUNDAI dealer.
WARNING - Wheel studs
If the studs are damaged, they
may lose their ability to retain
the wheel. This could lead to theloss of the wheel and a collisionresulting in serious injuries.
WARNING - Inadequate
spare tire pressure
Check the inflation pressures
as soon as possible after
installing the spare tire. Adjust
it to the specified pressure, if
necessary. Refer to “Tires and
wheels” in section 8.

What to do in an emergency
Important - use of compact spare tire(if equipped)
Your vehicle is equipped with a com-
pact spare tire. This compact spare
tire takes up less space than a regu-
lar-size tire. This tire is smaller than a
conventional tire and is designed for
temporary use only.
The compact spare should be inflat-
ed to 420 kPa (60 psi).
✽✽NOTICE
Check the inflation pressure after
installing the spare tire. Adjust it to
the specified pressure, as necessary.
When using a compact spare tire,
observe the following precautions:
Under no circumstances should you exceed 80 km/h (50 mph); a higher speed could damage the
tire.
Ensure that you drive slowly enough to avoid all hazards. Anyroad hazard, such as a pothole or
debris, could seriously damage the
compact spare.
Any continuous road use of this tire could result in tire failure, loss of
vehicle control, and possible per-
sonal injury.
Do not exceed the vehicle’s maxi- mum load rating or the load-carry-
ing capacity shown on the sidewall
of the compact spare tire.
Avoid driving over obstacles. The compact spare tire diameter issmaller than the diameter of a con-
ventional tire and reduces the
ground clearance approximately25 mm (1 inch), which could result
in damage to the vehicle.
CAUTION
You should drive carefully
when the compact spare is inuse. The compact spareshould be replaced by theproper conventional tire and rim at the first opportunity.
The operation of this vehicle is not recommended withmore than one compact spare tire in use at the same time.
WARNING
The compact spare tire is for
emergency use only. Do not
operate your vehicle on thiscompact spare at the speed
over 80 km/h (50 mph). Theoriginal tire should be repaired
or replaced as soon as possible
to avoid failure of the spare
possibly leading to personal
injury or death.

What to do in an emergency
IF YOU HAVE A FLAT TIRE (WITH TIREMOBILITYKIT, IF EQUIPPED)
Please read the instructions before
using the TireMobilityKit. (1) Compressor(2) Sealant bottle Introduction
With the TireMobilityKit you stay
mobile even after experiencing a tire
puncture. The system of compressor and seal-
ing compound effectively and com-
fortably seals most punctures in a
passenger car tire caused by nailsor similar objects and reinflates the
tire. After you ensure that the tire is
properly sealed you can drive cau-tiously on the tire (up to 200 km (120
miles)) at a max. speed of 80 km/h
(50 mph) in order to reach a vehicle
or tire dealer to have the tirereplaced.It is possible that some tires, espe-cially with larger punctures or dam-
age to the sidewall, cannot be sealed
completely. Air pressure loss in the
tire may adversely affect tire per-
formance.
For this reason, you should avoid
abrupt steering or other driving
maneuvers, especially if the vehicle
is heavily loaded or if a trailer is in
use. The TireMobilityKit is not
designed or intended as a perma-nent tire repair method and is to be
used for one tire only. This instruction
shows you step by step how to tem-
porarily seal the puncture simply and
reliably. Read the section "Notes on
the safe use of the TireMobilityKit".

WARNING
Do not use the TireMobilityKit if
a tire is severely damaged bydriving run flat or with insuffi-
cient air pressure. Only punc-tured areas located within thetread region of the tire can be
sealed using the TireMobilityKit.
Damage to the sidewall must
not be repaired due to safetyreasons.

Strictly follow the specified sequence,
otherwise the sealant may escape
under high pressure.
1) Shake the sealant bottle.
2) Screw connection hose 9 onto theconnector of the sealant bottle.
3) Ensure that button 8 on the com- pressor is not pressed.
4) Unscrew the valve cap from the valve of the defective wheel and
screw filling hose 2 of the sealant
bottle onto the valve.
5) Insert the sealant bottle into the housing of the compressor so that
the bottle is upright. 6) Ensure that the compressor is
switched off, position 0.
7) Connect between compressor and the vehicle power outlet using
the cable and connectors.
8) With the ignition switched on: Switch on the compressor and let it
run for approximately 3 minutes to fill
the sealant. The inflation pressure of
the tire after filling is unimportant. 9) Switch off the compressor. 10)
Detach the hoses from the sealant bottle connector and
from the tire valve.
Return the TireMobilityKit to its stor-
age location in the vehicle.
WARNING

Distributing the sealant
Immediately drive approximately 3 km
(2 miles) to evenly distribute the
sealant in the tire. Producing the tire inflation pres- sure
1) After driving approximately 3 km (2
miles), stop at a suitable location.
2) Connect connection hose 9 of the compressor directly to the tire
valve.
3) Connect between compressor and the vehicle power outlet using
the cable and connectors.
4) Adjust the tire inflation pressure to 220 kPa (32 psi). With the ignition
switched on, proceed as follows.
- To increase the inflation pres- sure: Switch on the compressor,
position I. To check the current
inflation pressure setting, briefly
switch off the compressor. - To reduce the inflation pres-
sure: Press the button 8 on the
compressor.
WARNING
Do not let the compressor run for
more than 10 minutes, otherwise
the device will overheat and may
be damaged.
WARNING
The tire inflation pressure must
be at least 220 kPa (32 psi). If it is
not, do not continue driving. Call
for road side service or towing.
CAUTION
Do not exceed a speed of 60 km/h (35 mph). If possible, donot fall below a speed of 20 km/h (12 mph).
While driving, if you experienceany unusual vibration, ride dis-turbance or noise, reduce yourspeed and drive with caution until you can safely pull off ofthe side of the road.
Call for road side service or tow-ing.
CAUTION
If the inflation pressure is notmaintained, drive the vehicle asecond time, refer to Distributing the sealant. Then repeat steps 1to 4.
Use of the TireMobilityKit maybe ineffectual for tire damagelarger than approximately 4 mm (0.16 in).
Please contact the nearestHYUNDAI A/S center, or a work-shop that works according toHYUNDAI repair procedures with correspondingly trainedpersonnel if the tire cannot bemade roadworthy with the TireMobilityKit.

Notes on the safe use of the TireMobilityKit
Park your car at the side of theroad so that you can work with the
TireMobilityKit away from moving
traffic. Place your warning triangle
in a prominent place to make pass-
ing vehicles aware of your location.
To be sure your vehicle won't move, even when you're on fairly
level ground, always set your park-
ing brake.
Only use the TireMobilityKit for sealing/inflation passenger car
tires. Do not use on motorcycles,
bicycles or any other type of tires.
Do not remove any foreign objects- such as nails or screws -that have
penetrated the tire.
Before using the TireMobilityKit, read the precautionary advice
printed on the sealant bottle!
Provided the car is outdoors, leave the engine running. Otherwise
operating the compressor may
eventually drain the car battery. Never leave the TireMobilityKit
unattended while it is being used.

What to do in an emergency
✽✽NOTICE
Take your vehicle to the nearest
authorized HYUNDAI dealer andhave the system checked if any ofthe below happens:
1.The low tire pressure telltale/ TPMS malfunction indicator and
low tire pressure position telltaledo not illuminate.
2. The TPMS malfunction indicator remains illuminated after blinking
for approximately 1 minute.
3. The Low tire pressure position telltale remains illuminated. Low tire pressure tell- tale
Low tire pressure posi- tion telltale
When the tire pressure monitoring
system warning indicators are illumi-
nated, one or more of your tires is
significantly under-inflated. The lowtire pressure position telltale light willindicate which tire is significantly
under-inflated by illuminating the cor-responding position light.
If either telltale illuminates, immedi-
ately reduce your speed, avoid hard
cornering 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 a
spare tire. Then the TPMS malfunction indicator
may blink for approximately 1 minute
and then remain continuously illumi-
nated and the low tire pressure posi-tion telltale will remain on after
restarting and about 20 minutes of
continuous driving before you have
the low pressure tire repaired and
replaced on the vehicle.
CAUTION
In winter or cold weather, the
low tire pressure telltale mayilluminate if the tire pressurewas adjusted to the recom- mended tire inflation pressurein warm weather. It does notmean your TPMS is malfunction- ing because the decreased tem-perature leads to a proportionallowering of tire pressure.
When you drive your vehiclefrom a warm area to a cold area or from a cold area to a warmarea, or the outside temperatureis greatly higher or lower, you should check the tire inflationpressure and adjust the tires tothe recommended tire inflation pressure.

TPMS (Tire 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 Tire Pressure
Monitoring System. If the system is
able to correctly detect an underinfla-
tion warning at the same time as sys-
tem failure then the TPMS malfunc-tion indicator remains illuminated
after blinking for approximately 1
minute and the low tire pressure posi-
tion telltale will illuminate e.g. if Front
Left sensor fails, the TPMS malfunc-tion indicator remains illuminated
after blinking for approximately 1
minute, but if the Front Right, RearLeft, or Rear Right tire is under-inflat-
ed, the low tire pressure position tell-
tales may illuminate together with the
TPMS malfunction indicator.
Have the system checked by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer as soon
as possible to determine the cause
of the problem.
WARNING - 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.CAUTION
The TPMS malfunction indica- tor may blink for approximate-ly 1 minute and then remain continuously illuminated if thevehicle is moving around elec-tric power supply cables or radios transmitter such as atpolice stations, governmentand public offices, broadcast- ing stations, military installa-tions, airports, or transmittingtowers, etc. This can interfere with normal operation of theTire Pressure MonitoringSystem (TPMS).
The TPMS malfunction indica- tor may blink for approximate-ly 1 minute and then remaincontinuously illuminated ifsnow chains are used or some separate electronic devicessuch as notebook computer,mobile charger, remote starteror navigation etc., are used in the vehicle. This can interferewith normal operation of theTire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS).

You may not be able identify a low
tire by simply looking at it. Alwaysuse a good quality tire pressuregauge to measure the tire's inflation
pressure. Please note that a tire that
is hot (from being driven) will have ahigher pressure measurement than atire that is cold (from sitting station-
ary for at least 3 hours and driven
less than 1 mile (1.6 km) during 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.
A cold tire means the vehicle has
been sitting for 3 hours and driven forless than 1 mile (1.6 km) in that 3
hour period.
CAUTION
Do not use any tire sealant if
your vehicle is equipped with aTire Pressure Monitoring System. The liquid sealant candamage the tire pressure sen-sors.
WARNING - Protecting
TPMS
Tampering with, modifying, or
disabling the Tire PressureMonitoring System (TPMS)
components may interfere withthe system's ability to warn the
driver of low tire pressure con-
ditions and/or TPMS malfunc-
tions. Tampering with, modify-
ing, or disabling the TirePressure Monitoring System
(TPMS) components may void
the warranty for that portion of
the vehicle.WARNING - TPMS
The TPMS cannot alert you to severe and sudden tire dam-
age caused by external fac-
tors such as nails or roaddebris.
If you feel any vehicle instabil- ity, immediately take your foot
off the accelerator, apply the
brakes gradually and with
light force, and slowly move to
a safe position off the road.
