WARNING:
Significantly low tire pressure makes
the vehicle unstable and can contribute
to loss of vehicle control and increased
braking distances.
Continued driving on low pressure tires
may cause the tires to overheat and fail.
Avoid hard braking and overcorrecting at
the steering wheel. Inflate the tires to the
proper pressure as indicated on the
vehicle’s tire information placard.
If you have a flat tire, the Low tire Pressure
and Position Telltales will illuminate.
Replace the flat tire with the spare tire(see
page 3-12)
Each wheel is equipped with a tire pres-
sure sensor mounted inside the tire be-
hind the valve stems. You must use TPMS
specific wheels. IT is recommended that
you always have tires serviced by your
Hyundai dealer or qualified technician.
After you replace the flat tire, the Low Tire
Pressure and Position Telltales remain
illuminated. This is normal; the system is
not monitoring the spare tire pressure.
Check the spare tire pressure to make sure
it is correct.
