9. Loosen the lug nuts with the wheel
lug nut wrench and remove them
with your fingers. Remove the
wheel from the studs and lay it flat
on the ground out of the way.
Remove any dirt or debris from
the studs, mounting surfaces, and
wheel.
10. Install the spare tire onto the
studs of the hub.
11. Tighten the lug nuts with your fin-
gers onto the studs with the
smaller end of the lug nuts clos-
est to the wheel.
12. Lower the vehicle to the ground
by turning the jack handle coun-
terclockwise.
13. 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, have an author-
ized HYUNDAI dealer tighten the
lug nuts to their proper torque as
soon as possible.The wheel lug
nut should be tightened to
79~94 lbf·ft (11~13 kgf·m).If you have a tire gage, check the tire
pressure (see "Tires and Wheels" in
chapter 8 for tire pressure instruc-
tions.). 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 stor-
age locations. If it is hard to secure
the flat tire, put the flat tire in the lug-
gage compartment. Check the tire pressure as soon
as possible after installing a
spare tire. Adjust it to the rec-
ommended pressure.
Check and tighten the wheel lug
nuts after driving over 30 mile
(50 km) if tires are replaced.
Recheck the tire wheel lug nuts
after driving over 620 mile (1,000
km).NOTICE

What to do in an emergency
If any of the equipment such as the
jack, lug nuts, studs, or other equip-
ment is damaged or in poor condi-
tion, do not attempt to change the
tire and call for assistance.
Use of compact spare tires
Compact spare tires are designed for
emergency use only. Drive carefully
on the compact spare tire and
always follow the safety precautions.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 60 psi (420 kPa).
Do not take this vehicle through an
automatic car wash while the com-
pact 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 com-
pact 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.
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 79~94 lbf·ft
(11~13 kgf·m).
NOTICE
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.
Consult an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer for assistance.
CAUTION
To prevent compact spare tire
failure and loss of control pos-
sibly resulting in an accident:
Use the compact spare tire
only in an emergency.
NEVER operate your vehicle
over 50 mph (80 km/h).
Do not exceed the vehicle's
maximum load rating or the
load carrying capacity shown
on the sidewall of the com-
pact spare tire.
Do not use the compact spare
tire continuously. Repair or
replace the original tire as
soon as possible to avoid fail-
ure of the compact spare tire.

Jack label
To prevent damaging the com-
pact 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 diame-
ter is smaller than the diame-
ter of a conventional tire and
reduces the ground clearance
approximately 1 inch (25 mm).
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 com-
pact spare wheel.
CAUTION
The actual Jack label in the vehicle may differ from the illustration.
For more detailed specifications, refer to the label attached to the jack.

What to do in an emergency
The Tire Mobility Kit is not designed
or intended as a permanent tire
repair method and is to be used for
one tire 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 Tire Mobility Kit".
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.
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. Only punctured areas located
within the tread region of the tire
can be sealed using the tire mobil-
ity kit.
Do not use on motorcycles, bicy-
cles or any other type of tires. When the tire and wheel are dam-
aged, do not use Tire Mobility Kit
for your safety.
Use of the Tire Mobility Kit may not
be effective for tire damage larger
than approximately 0.24 inch (6
mm).
Please contact the nearest
HYUNDAI dealership if the tire
cannot be made roadworthy with
the Tire Mobility Kit.
Do not use the Tire Mobility Kit if a
tire 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 tire.
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 minutes at a
time or it may overheat. Do not use the Tire Mobility Kit if
the ambient temperature is below
-22°F (-30°C).
In case of skin contact with the-
sealant, wash the area thoroughly-
with plenty of water. If the irritation-
persists, seek medical attention.
In case of eye contact with the
sealant, flush your eyes for at least
15 minutes. If the irritation persists,
seek medical attention.
In case of swallowing the sealant,
rinse the mouth and drink plenty
ofwater. However, never give any-
thing to an unconscious person
and seek medical attention imme-
diately.

Towing Service
[A] : Dollies
If emergency towing is necessary,
we recommend having it done by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer or a
commercial tow-truck service.
Proper lifting and towing procedures
are necessary to prevent damage to
the vehicle. The use of wheel dollies
or flatbed is recommended.On FWD vehicles, it is acceptable to
tow the vehicle with the rear wheels
on the ground (without dollies) and
the front wheels off the ground. If any
of the loaded wheels or suspension
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 lifted, not the rear.
If your vehicle is an AWD vehicle, it
must be towed with a wheel lift and
dollies or flatbed equipment with all
the wheels off the ground.

Do not tow the vehicle with the
front wheels on the ground as
this may cause damage to the
vehicle.
Do not tow with sling-type
equipment. Use a wheel lift or
flatbed equipment.
CAUTION

An AWD vehicle should never
be towed with the wheels on the
ground. This can cause serious
damage to the transmission or
the AWD system.
