Notes on the safe use of the Tire
Mobility Kit
Park your car at the side of the
road so that you can work with the
Tire Mobility Kit 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 will not
move, even when you're on fairly
level ground, always set your park-
ing brake.
Only use the Tire Mobility Kit 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 Tire Mobility Kit,
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 Tire Mobility Kit
unattended while 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 Tire Mobility Kit if the
ambient temperature is below -22°F
(-30°C).
Do not use the sealing compound
after its expiration date which can
be found on the label of the bottle.
Keep away from children.
WARNING
Have your tire repaired as soon
as possible. The tire may loose
air pressure at any time after
inflating with the TMK.
CAUTION
The Tire Mobility Kit is a tempo-
rary fix to the tire and the tire
should be inspected by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer as
soon as possible.
CAUTION
When using Tire Mobility Kit, the
tire sealant can damage the tire
pressure sensor. After using the
Tire Mobility Kit, have the tire
pressure sensor checked by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.

Using the TireMobilityKit
1. Shake the sealant bottle.
2. Screw connection hose 9 onto the
connector 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.
✽ ✽
NOTICE
If a foreign object is seen that has
punctured the tire, do not remove it
before using Tire Mobility Kit.
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 engine start/stop button
positioned 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

What to do in an emergency
Distributing the sealant
11. Immediately drive approximately
3 km (2 miles) to evenly distribute
the sealant in the tire.Producing the tire inflation pres-
sure
12. After driving approximately 3 km
(2 miles), stop at a suitable loca-
tion.
13. Connect connection hose 9 of
the compressor directly to the tire
valve.
14. Connect between compressor
and the vehicle power outlet
using the cable and connectors.
15. Adjust the tire inflation pressure
to 230 kPa (33 psi). With the
engine start/stop button posi-
tioned 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.✽ ✽
NOTICE
The pressure gauge may show high-
er than actual reading when the
compressor is running. To get an
accurate tire reading, the compres-
sor needs to be turned off.
- To reduce the inflation pres-
sure:Press the button 8 on the
compressor.
16. Remove the speed restriction
label(0) from the sealant bottle(1)
and place it in a highly visible
place in the vehicle such as on
the steering wheel to remind you
not to drive too fast.
WARNING
Do not let the compressor run for
more than 10 minutes, otherwise
the device will overheat and may
be damaged.
CAUTION
Do not exceed a speed of 60
km/h (35 mph). If possible, do
not fall below a speed of 20
km/h (12 mph).
While driving, if you experience
any unusual vibration, ride dis-
turbance or noise, reduce your
speed and drive with caution
until you can safely pull off of
the side of the road.
Call for road side service or tow-
ing.
CAUTION
Be careful not to overinflate the
tire and stay away from the tire
when filling it.

TOWING
Towing service
If emergency towing is necessary, we
recommend having it done by an author-
ized Hyundai dealer or a commercial
tow-truck service. Proper lifting and tow-
ing 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 dol-
lies) and the front wheels off the ground.
If any of the loaded wheels or suspen-
sion 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 lift-
ed, not the rear.

CAUTION
Do not tow with sling-type equip-
ment. Use wheel lift or flatbed
equipment.
Never tow the vehicle backwards
with the front wheels on the
ground as this may cause dam-
age to the vehicle.

WARNING- Maintenance
work
Performing maintenance work on
a vehicle can be dangerous. You
can be seriously injured while
performing some maintenance
procedures. If you lack sufficient
knowledge and experience or the
proper tools and equipment to do
the work, have it done by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
Working under the hood with the
engine running is dangerous. It
becomes even more dangerous
when you wear jewelry or loose
clothing. These can become
entangled in moving parts and
result in injury. Therefore, if you
must run the engine while work-
ing under the hood, make certain
that you remove all jewelry (espe-
cially rings, bracelets, watches,
and necklaces) and all neckties,
scarves, and similar loose cloth-
ing before getting near the
engine or cooling fans.
(Continued)
(Continued)
When you open the engine hood,
turn the Hybrid system off. If not,
it may result if death or serious
injury because the high voltage
flows.
If the components of brake sys-
tem passed the brake oil may be
replaced or removed, have the
vehicle checked by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer. To operate the
brake system, the brake air
should be out. If not, the braking
distance may be long by low per-
formance of brake.
