6It is possible that some tyres, espe-
cially with larger punctures or dam-
age to the sidewall, cannot be sealed
completely.Air pressure loss in the tyre may
adversely affect tyre performance.
For this reason, you should avoid
abrupt steering or other driving
manoeuvres, especially if the vehicle
is heavily loaded or if a trailer is in
use.
The TyreMobilityKit is not designed
or intended as a permanent tyre
repair method and is to be used for
one tyre only. This instruction shows
you step by step how to temporarily
seal the puncture simply and reliably.
Read the section "Notes on the safe
use of the TyreMobilityKit". Notes on the safe use of the
TyreMobilityKit
Park your car at the side of the
road so that you can work with the
TyreMobilityKit away from moving
traffic.
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 TyreMobilityKit for sealing/inflation passenger car
tyres. Only punctured areas locat-
ed within the tread region of the
tyre can be sealed using the tyre
mobility kit.
Do not use on motorcycles, bicy- cles or any other type of tyres.
When the tyre and wheel are dam- aged, do not use Tyre Mobility Kit
for your safety.
Use of the Tyre Mobility Kit may not be effective for tyre damage larger
than approximately 0.24 in (6 mm).
If the tyre cannot be made road-
worthy with the Tyre Mobility Kit,
we recommend that you contact a
HYUNDAI authorised repairer. Do not use the Tyre Mobility Kit if a
tyre is severely damaged by driving
run flat or with insufficient air pres-
sure.
Do not remove any foreign objects- such as nails or screws that have
penetrated the tyre.
Provided the car is outdoors, leave the engine running. Otherwise
operating the compressor may
eventually drain the car battery.
Never leave the TyreMobilityKit unattended whilst it is being used.
Do not leave the compressor run- ning for more than 10 min. at a time
or it may overheat.
Do not use the TyreMobilityKit if the ambient temperature is below
-30°C (-22°F).
WARNING
Do not use the TMK if a tyre is
severely damaged by driving
run flat or with insufficient air
pressure.
Only punctured areas located
within the tread region of the
tyre can be sealed using the
TMK.

8. With the engine start/stop buttonposition on or ignition switch posi-
tion on, switch on the compressor
and let it run for approximately 5~7
minutes to fill the sealant up to
proper pressure. (refer to the Tyre
and Wheels, chapter 8). The infla-
tion pressure of the tyre after filling
is unimportant and will be
checked/corrected later.
Be careful not to overinflate the
tyre and stay away from the tyre
when filling it. 9. Switch off the compressor.
10. Detach the hoses from the
sealant bottle connector and
from the tyre valve.
Return the TyreMobilityKit to its stor-
age location in the vehicle. Distributing the sealant
11. Immediately drive approximately
4~6 miles (7~10 km or, about
10min) to evenly distribute the
sealant in the tyre.
WARNING
- Carbonmonoxide
Do not leave your vehicle run-
ning in a poorly ventilated area
for extended periods of time.
Carbon monoxide poisoning
and suffocation can occur.
CAUTION
- Tyre pressure
Do not attempt to drive your vehicle if the tyre pressure isbelow 200kpa(29 PSI). Thiscould result in an accident dueto sudden tyre failure.
CAUTION
Do not exceed a speed of 80km/h (50 mph). If possible, donot fall below a speed of 20km/h (12 mph).
Whilst driving, if you experienceany unusual vibration, ride dis-turbance or noise, reduce yourspeed and drive with cautionuntil you can safely pull off ofthe side of the road.
Call for road side service or tow-ing. When you use the TyreMobility Kit, the tyre pressuresensors and wheel may be dam-aged by sealant, remove thesealant stained with tyre pres-sure sensors and wheel andinspect in authorized dealer.

What to do in an emergency
Use a towing strap less than 16 feet (5m) long. Attach a white or red cloth
(about 12 inches (30 cm) wide) in the
middle of the strap for easy visibility.
Drive carefully so that the towing strap is not loosened during towing.
Emergency towing precautions Turn the ignition switch to ACC so thesteering wheel isn’t locked.
Place the transaxle shift lever in N (Neutral).
Release the parking brake.
Press the brake pedal with more force than normal since you will have
reduced brake performance.
More steering effort will be required because the power steering system
will be disabled.
If you are driving down a long hill, the brakes may overheat and brake per-
formance will be reduced. Stop often
and let the brakes cool off.
WARNING
Use extreme caution when towing
the vehicle.
Avoid sudden starts or erratic driving manoeuvres which would
place excessive stress on the
emergency towing hook and tow-
ing cable or chain. The hook and
towing cable or chain may break
and cause serious injury or dam-
age.
If the disabled vehicle is unable to be moved, do not forcibly con-
tinue the towing. Contact a
HYUNDAI authorised repairer or a
commercial tow truck service for
assistance.
Tow the vehicle as straight ahead as possible.
Keep away from the vehicle dur- ing towing.

Engine compartment precautions
(Diesel engine)• The piezo injector operates at highvoltage (maximum 200v). Therefore,
the following accidents may occur.
- Direct contact with the injector orinjector wiring may cause electric
shock or damage your muscle or
nerve system.
- The electromagnetic wave from the operating injector may cause the arti-
ficial heart pacemaker to malfunction.
Follow the safety tips provided below, when you are checking the engine
room whilst the engine is running.
- Do not touch the injector, injectorwirings, and the engine computer
whilst the engine is running.
- Do not remove the injector connector whilst the engine is running.
- People using pacemakers must not go near the engine whilst the engine
is starting or running.
WARNING
- Maintenance work
Performing maintenance work on
a vehicle can be dangerous. You
can be seriously injured whilst
performing some maintenance
procedures. If you lack sufficient
knowledge and experience or the
proper tools and equipment to do
the work, we recommend that the
system be serviced by a
HYUNDAI authorised repairer.
Working under the bonnet with the engine running is dangerous.
It becomes even more dangerous
when you wear jewellery or loose
clothing. These can become
entangled in moving parts and
result in injury. Therefore, if you
must run the engine whilst work-
ing under the bonnet, make cer-
tain that you remove all jewellery
(especially rings, bracelets,
watches, and necklaces) and all
neckties, scarves, and similar
loose clothing before getting
near the engine or cooling fans.
CAUTION
Do not put heavy objects or apply excessive force on top of theengine cover (if equipped) or fuel related parts.
When you inspect the fuel system (fuel lines and fuel injectiondevices), we recommend that you contact a HYUNDAI authorisedrepairer.
Do not drive long time with the engine cover (if equipped)removed.
When checking the engine room, do not go near fire.
Fuel, washer fluid, etc. are flam-mable oils that may cause fire.
Before touching the battery, igni- tion cables and electrical wiring,you should disconnect the bat-tery "-" terminal. You may get an electric shock from the electriccurrent.
When you remove the interior trim cover with a flat bed (-) driv-er, be careful not to damage thecover.

Maintenance
The following lists are vehicle checks and
inspections that should be performed at
the frequencies indicated to help ensure
safe, dependable operation of your vehi-
cle. If you have any question, we recom-
mend that you consult a HYUNDAI
authorised repairer.
These Owner Maintenance Checks are
generally not covered by warranties and
you may be charged for labour, parts and
lubricants used.
Owner maintenance schedule When you stop for fuel: Check the engine oil level.
Check coolant level in coolant reser-voir.
Check the windscreen washer fluid level.
Look for low or under-inflated tyres.
WARNING
Be careful when checking your
engine coolant level when the
engine is hot. Scalding hot coolant
and steam may blow out under
pressure. This could cause burns
or other serious injury.
WARNING
- Diesel Engine
Never work on injection system
with engine running or within 30
seconds after shutting off engine.
High-pressure pump, rail, injectors
and high-pressure pipes are sub-
ject to high pressure even after the
engine stopped. The fuel jet pro-
duced by fuel leaks may cause seri-
ous injury, if it touches the body.
People using pacemakers should
not move than 30cm closer to the
ECU or wiring harness within the
engine room whilst engine is run-
ning, since the high currents in the
electronic engine control system
produce considerable magnetic
fields.
