What to do in an emergency
TPMS (Tire Pressure
Monitoring System)
malfunction indicator
CAUTION
WARNING - Low pressure
damage
In winter or cold weather, the
low tire pressure telltale may be
illuminated if the tire pressure
was adjusted to the recom-
mended tire inflation pressure
in warm weather. It does not
mean yourTPMS is malfunction-
ing because the decreased tem-
perature leads to a proportional
lowering of tire pressure.
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.
Do not drive on low pressure
tires. Significantly low tire pres-
sure can cause the tires to over-
heat and fail making the vehicle
unstable resulting in increased
braking distances and a loss of
vehicle control.
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 underinfla-
tion warning at the same time as sys-
tem failure then the TPMS malfunction
indicator remains illuminated after
blinking for approximately 1 minute and
the low tire pressure position telltale
will illuminate.For example, if Front Left
sensor fails, the TPMS malfunction
indicator remains illuminated after
blinking for approximately 1 minute, but
if the Front Right, Rear Left, or Rear
Right tire is under-inflated, the low tire
pressure position telltales may illumi-
nate together with the TPMS malfunc-
tion indicator. Have the system
checked by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer as soon as possible to deter-
mine the cause of the problem.
