What to do in an emergency
TPMS (Tire Pressure
Monitoring System)
malfunction indicator
The TPMS malfunction indicator
comes on and stays on when there is
a problem with the Tire Pressure
Monitoring System. If the system is
able to correctly detect an under-
inflation warning at the same time as
system failure then it will illuminate
both the TPMS malfunction and the
low tire pressure telltale e.g. If Front
Left sensor fails, the TPMS malfunc-
tion indicator comes on, but if Front
Right, Rear Left, or Rear Right tire is
under-inflated, the low tire pressure
telltale may come on with the TPMS
malfunction indicator.
Have the system checked by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer as soon
as possible to determine the cause
of the problem.
Changing a tire with TPMS
If you have a flat tire, the Low Tire
Pressure Telltale will turn on. Have
the flat tire repaired by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer as soon as possi-
ble or replace the flat tire with the
compact spare tire.
Each wheel is equipped with a tire
pressure sensor mounted inside the
tire behind the valve stem. You must
use TPMS specific wheels. It is rec-
ommended that you always have
your tires serviced by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer as soon as possi-
ble.
TPMS
CAUTION
NEVER use a puncture-repair-
ing agent to repair and/or inflate
a low pressure tire. If used, you
will have to replace the tire pres-
sure sensor.
CAUTION
• The TPMS malfunction indica-
tor may be illuminated if the
vehicle is moving around elec-
tric power supply cable or
radio transmitter such as
police stations, government
and public offices, broadcast-
ing stations, military installa-
tions, airports, or transmitting
tower, etc. which can interfere
with normal operation of the
Tire Pressure Monitoring
System (TPMS).
• The TPMS malfunction indica-
tor may be illuminated if snow
chains or some electronic
devices, such as notebook
computers, are used in the
vehicle. This can interfere with
normal operation of the Tire
Pressure Monitoring System
(TPMS).
