Your HYUNDAI vehicle may come
equipped with certain additional
emergency or roadside assistance
accessories that may be useful if a
problem occurs.
Fire Extinguisher
If there is small fire and you know how
to use the fire extinguisher, follow these
steps carefully.
1. Pull out the safety pin at the top of the extinguisher that keeps the handle
from being accidentally pressed.
2. Aim the nozzle towards the base of the fire.
3. Stand approximately 8 ft (2.5 m) away from the fire and squeeze the handle
to discharge the extinguisher. If you
release the handle, the discharge will
stop.
4. Sweep the nozzle back and forth at the base of the fire. After the fire
appears to be out, watch carefully
since it may re-ignite.
First Aid Kit
Supplies for use in giving first aid such as
scissors, bandages and adhesive tape,
etc. are provided.
Triangle Reflector
Place the triangle reflector on the road
to warn oncoming vehicles during
emergencies, such as when the vehicle is
parked by the roadside due to problems.
Tire Pressure Gauge
Tires normally lose some air in day-to-
day use, and you may have to add a air
periodically and usually it is not a sign of
a leaking tire, but of normal wear. Always
check tire pressure when the tires are
cold because tire pressure increases with
temperature.
To check the tire pressure, take the
following steps:
1. Unscrew the inflation valve cap that is located on the rim of the tire.
2. Press and hold the gauge against the tire valve. Some air will leak as you
begin and more will leak if you don’t
press the gauge in firmly.
3. A firm non-leaking push will activate the gauge.
4. Read the tire pressure on the gauge to see whether the tire pressure is low
or high.
5. Adjust the tire pressure to the specified pressure. Refer to “Tires and
Wheels” section in chapter 2.
6. Reinstall the inflation valve cap.
