What to do in an emergency

TPMS (Tire Pressure
Monitoring System)
malfunction indicator

The TPMS malfunction indicator
blinks for 60 seconds then remains
solidly illuminated when there is a
problem with the Tire Pressure
Monitoring System
Have the system checked by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer as soon
as possible to determine the cause
of the problem.

WARNING

- Low pressure

damage

Significantly low tire pressure
makes the vehicle unstable and
can contribute to loss of vehicle
control and increased braking
distances.
Continued driving on low pres-
sure tires can cause the tires to
overheat and fail.

CAUTION

• The TPMS malfunction indica-

tor may be illuminated if the
vehicle is moving around elec-
tric power supply cables or
radios transmitter such as at
police stations, government
and public offices, broadcast-
ing stations, military installa-
tions, airports, or transmitting
towers, etc. This can interfere
with normal operation of the
Tire Pressure Monitoring
System (TPMS).

• The TPMS malfunction indica-

tor may illuminate if snow
chains or some separately
purchased devices such as
notebook computers, mobile
charger, remote starter, navi-
gation etc. are used in the
vehicle. This can interfere with
normal operation of the Tire
Pressure Monitoring System
(TPMS).
