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. 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 1.6 km (1 mile) 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.

Emergency Situations
8-16
Changing Tires
WARNING
A vehicle can slip or roll off of a jack
causing serious injury or death to you or
those nearby. Take the following safety
precautions:
[ Do not get under a vehicle that is
supported by a jack.

[ NEVER attempt to change a tire in
the lane of traffic. ALWAYS move the
vehicle completely off the road on
level, firm ground away from traffic
before trying to change a tire. If you
cannot find a level, firm place off
the road, call a towing service for
assistance.

[ Be sure to use the jack provided with
the vehicle.

[ ALWAYS place the jack on the
designated jacking positions on the
vehicle and NEVER on the bumpers
or any other part of the vehicle for jacking support.

[ Do not start or run the engine while
the vehicle is on the jack.

[ Do not allow anyone to remain in the
vehicle while it is on the jack.

[ Keep children away from the road
and the vehicle. Follow these steps to change your
vehicle’s tire:
1. Park on a level, firm surface.
2. Move the shift button into P (Park),
apply the parking brake, and place
the ignition switch in the LOCK/OFF position.
3. Press the hazard warning flasher button.
4. Remove the wheel lug nut wrench, jack, jack handle, and spare tire from
the vehicle.
OTMH080002
[A] : Block
5. Block both the front and rear of the
tire diagonally opposite of the tire you
are changing.
OTMH080003
6. Loosen the wheel lug nuts counterclockwise one turn each in
the order shown above, but do not
remove any lug nuts until the tire has
been raised off of the ground.

08
8-17
OTMH080004
7. Place the jack at the designated
jacking position under the frame
closest to the tire you are changing.
The jacking positions are plates
welded to the frame with two
notches. Never jack at any other
position or part of the vehicle. Doing
so may damage the side seal molding
or other parts of the vehicle.
OTMH080005
8. Insert the jack handle into the jack and turn it clockwise, raising the
vehicle until the tire clears the ground.
Make sure the vehicle is stable on the jack. 9. Loosen the lug nuts with the wheel
lug nut wrench and remove them
with your fingers. Slide the wheel off
the studs and lay it flat so it cannot
roll away. To put the wheel on the
hub, pick up the spare tire, line up
the holes with the studs and slide the
wheel onto them. If this is difficult,
tip the wheel slightly and get the top
hole in the wheel lined up with the top
stud. Then jiggle the wheel back and
forth until the wheel can be slid over
the other studs.
WARNING
Wheels may have sharp edges. Handle
them carefully to avoid possible severe
injury. Before putting the wheel into
place, be sure that there is nothing on
the hub or wheel (such as mud, tar,
gravel, etc.) that interferes with the
wheel from fitting solidly against the hub.
If there is, remove it. If there is not
good contact on the mounting surface
between the wheel and hub, the wheel nuts could come loose and cause the
loss of a wheel. Loss of a wheel may
result in loss of control of the vehicle.
This may cause serious injury or death.
10. To reinstall the wheel, hold it on the studs, put the wheel nuts on the studs
and tighten them finger tight. The
nuts should be installed with their
tapered small diameter ends directed
inward. Jiggle the tire to be sure it is
completely seated, then tighten the
nuts as much as possible with your
fingers again.
11. Lower the vehicle to the ground by turning the wheel lug wrench
counterclockwise.

Emergency Situations
8-18
OTM080045L
12. Use the wheel lug nut wrench to
tighten the lug nuts in the order
shown. Double-check each lug nut
until they are tight. After changing
tires, we recommend that an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer tighten
the lug nuts to their proper torque as soon as possible. The wheel lug nut
should be tightened to 11~13 kgf.m
(79~94 lbf.ft).
If you have a tire gauge, check the
tire pressure (see “Tires and Wheels”
section in chapter 2 for tire pressure
instructions.). If the pressure is lower or
higher than recommended, drive slowly
to the nearest service station and adjust
it to the recommended pressure. 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, buy another
and install it as soon as possible. After
changing tires, secure the flat tire and
return the jack and tools to their proper
storage locations.
NOTICE
Check the tire pressure as soon as
possible after installing a spare tire.
Adjust it to the recommended pressure.
CAUTION
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 the studs and ensure
the wheel is properly secured to the
hub. We recommend that you consult
an authorized HYUNDAI dealer for
assistance.
WARNING
Wheel studs
If the studs are damaged, they may lose
their ability to retain the wheel. This
could lead to the loss of the wheel and a
collision resulting in serious injuries.
If any of the equipment such as the jack,
lug nuts, studs, or other equipment is
damaged or in poor condition, do not
attempt to change the tire and call for
assistance.
Use of compact spare tires (if equipped)
Compact spare tires are designed for
emergency use only. Drive carefully on
the compact spare tire and always follow
the safety precautions.

08
8-19
WARNING
To prevent compact spare tire failure
and loss of control possibly 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 compact spare tire.

[ Do not use the compact spare tire
continuously. Repair or replace the
original tire as soon as possible to
avoid failure of the compact spare
tire.

[ Do not suddenly accelerate or
decelerate 0 l 40 km/h (0 l 25
mph) in any driving mode. It may
cause leakage of transfer oil.
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
compact spare tire is installed.

[ Do not use the compact spare tire on
any other vehicle because this tire
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 compact spare tires with
the same size and design, mounted on the same wheel.

[ Do not use more than one compact
spare tire at a time.

[ Do not tow a trailer while the compact
spare tire is installed. Information
When the original tire and wheel are
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
To prevent damaging the compact
spare tire and your vehicle:
[ Drive slowly enough for the road
conditions to avoid all hazards, such
as a potholes or debris.

[ Avoid driving over obstacles. The
compact spare tire diameter is
smaller than the diameter of a
conventional tire and reduces the
ground clearance approximately 25
mm (1 inch).

[ Do not use tire chains on the
compact spare tire. Because of the
smaller size, a tire chain will not fit
properly.

[ Do not use the compact spare tire
on any other wheels, nor should
standard tires, snow tires, wheel
covers or trim rings be used with the
compact spare wheel.

[ Do not suddenly accelerate or
decelerate 0 l 40 km/h (0 l 25
mph) in any driving mode. It may
cause leakage of transfer oil.
