3 WHAT TO DO IN AN EMERGENCY
8
o If there is a failed tire sensor, it is
possible for the TPMS to tempo-
rarily learn a replacement sensor
if closely driven to another ve-
hicle that is also equipped with
TPMS. In rare cases, this may
temporarily delay the TPMS mal-
function indicator from turning
on.
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 possible.
After you replace the low pressure tire
with the spare tire, the TPMS malfunc-
tion indicator or the Low Tire Pressure
telltale may illuminate after restarting
and about 20 minutes of continuous
driving.
Once the low pressure tire is re-in-
flated to the recommended pressure
and installed on the vehicle, the TPMS
malfunction indicator and the low tire
pressure telltale will be extinguished.
If the low pressure and TPMS mal-
function indicators are not extinguished
after about 20 minutes of continuous
driving, please visit an authorized
Hyundai dealer.
Please note that a tire that is hot (from
being driven) will have a higher pres-
sure measurement than a tire that is
cold (from sitting stationary for at least
3 hours and driven less than 1 mile
during that 3 hour period). Allow the
tire to cool before measuring the infla-
tion pressure.
Always be sure the tire is cold before
inflating to the recommended pres-
sure.
A cold tire means the vehicle has been
sitting for 3 hours and driven for less
than 1 mile in that 3 hour period.
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 possible or
replace the flat tire with the temporary
spare tire.
NOTE:
NEVER use a puncture-repairing
agent to repair and/or inflate a low
pressure tire. If used, you will have
to replace the tire pressure sensor.
You may not be able to identify a low
tire by simply looking at it. Always use
a good quality tire pressure gauge to
measure the tire's inflation pressure.
