What to do in an emergency

86

Please note that the TPMS is not a

substitute for proper tire maintenance,

and it is the driver’s responsibility to

maintain correct tire pressure, even if

under-inflation has not reached the

level to trigger illumination of the

TPMS low tire pressure telltale.

Your vehicle has also been equipped

with a TPMS malfunction indicator to

indicate when the system is not oper-

ating properly. The TPMS malfunction

indicator is provided by a separate tell-

tale, which displays the symbol

"TPMS" when illuminated. When the

malfunction indicator is illuminated,

the system may not be able to detect

or signal low tire pressure as intended.

TPMS malfunctions may occur for a

variety of reasons, including the instal-

lation of replacement or alternate tires

or wheels on the vehicle that prevent

the TPMS from functioning properly.

Always check the TPMS malfunction

telltale after replacing one or more

tires or wheels on your vehicle to

ensure that the replacement or alter-

nate tires and wheels allow the TPMS

to continue to function properly.

✽✽

NOTICE

If the TPMS, Low Tire Pressure tell-

tale does not illuminate for 3 sec-

onds when the ignition switch is

turned to the ON position or engine

is running, or if it remains illuminat-

ed after coming on for approximate-

ly 3 seconds, take your car to your

nearest authorized HYUNDAI deal-

er and have the system checked.

Low tire pressure tell-

tale

Low tire pressure posi-

tion telltale

When the tire pressure monitoring

system warning indicators are illumi-

nated, one or more of your tires is

significantly under-inflated. The low

tire pressure position telltale (supple-

mental) will indicate which tire is sig-

nificantly under-inflated by illuminat-

ing the corresponding position on the

LCD screen (if equipped).

If either telltale illuminates, immedi-

ately reduce your speed, avoid hard

cornering and anticipate increased

stopping distances. You should stop

and check your tires as soon as pos-

sible. Inflate the tires to the proper

pressure as indicated on the vehi-

cle’s placard or tire inflation pressure

label located on the driver’s side cen-

ter pillar outer panel. If you cannot

reach a service station or if the tire

cannot hold the newly added air,

replace the low pressure tire with the

compact spare tire.
