What to do in an emergency
TPMS (Tire Pressure
Monitoring System)
malfunction indicator
CAUTION
WARNING - Low pressure
damage
Significantly low tire pressure
makes the vehicle unstable and
can contribute to loss of vehicle
control and increased braking
distances.
In winter or cold weather, the
low tire pressure telltale may
illuminate if the tire pressure
was adjusted to the recom-
mended tire inflation pressure
in warm weather. It does not
mean your TPMS is malfunction-
ing because the decreased tem-
perature leads to a proportional
lowering of tire pressure.
The TPMS malfunction indicator will
illuminate after it blinks for approxi-
mately one minute when there is a
problem with the Tire Pressure
Monitoring System. If the system is
able to correctly detect an under infla-
tion warning at the same time as sys-
tem failure then the TPMS malfunc-
tion indicator remains illuminated
after blinking for approximately 1
minute and the low tire pressure posi-
tion telltale will illuminate e.g. if Front
Left sensor fails, the TPMS malfunc-
tion indicator remains illuminated
after blinking for approximately 1
minute, but if the Front Right, Rear
Left, or Rear Right tire is under-inflat-
ed, the low tire pressure position tell-
tales may illuminate together with the
TPMS malfunction indicator.
Continued driving on low pres-
sure tires can cause the tires to
overheat and fail.
When you drive your vehicle
from a warm area to a cold area
or from a cold area to a warm
area, or the outside temperature
is greatly higher or lower, you
should check the tire inflation
pressure and adjust the tires to
the recommended tire inflation
pressure.
Have the system checked by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer as soon
as possible to determine the cause
of the problem.
