What to do in an emergency
Changing a tire with TPMS
If you have a flat tire, the Low Tire
Pressure will come on. We recom-
mend that the flat tire be checked by
an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
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 have your tires
serviced by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer.
Even if you replace the low pressure
tire with the spare tire, the Low Tire
Pressure Telltale will blink or remain
on until the low pressure tire is
repaired and placed on the vehicle.
After you replace the low pressure
tire with the spare tire, the Low Tire
Pressure Telltale may blink or illumi-
nate after a few minutes because the
TPMS sensor mounted on the spare
wheel is not initiated.
Once the low pressure tire is reinflat-
ed to the recommended pressure
and installed on the vehicle or we
recommend that the TPMS sensor
mounted on the replaced spare
wheel be initiated by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer, the TPMS mal-
function indicator and the low tire
pressure telltale will extinguish within
a few minutes of driving.
If the indicator is not extinguished
after a few minutes of driving, We
recommend that the system be
checked by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer.
CAUTION
If original mounted tire is
replaced with the spare tire, the
TPMS sensor on the replaced
spare wheel should be initiated
and we recommend that the
TPMS sensor on the original
mounted wheel be deactivated
by a HYUNDAI dealer. If the
TPMS sensor on the original
mounted wheel located in the
spare tire carrier still activates,
the tire pressure monitoring
system may not operate proper-
ly. We recommend that the sys-
tem be serviced by an author-
ized HYUNDAI dealer.
CAUTION
We recommend that you use a
puncture-repairing agent
approved by HYUNDAI.
The sealant on the tire pressure
sensor and wheel shall be elem-
inated when you replace the tire
with a new one.
