✽
✽ NOTICE
If the TPMS, Low Tire Pressure indi-
cator does not illuminate for 3 sec-
onds when the ignition switch is
turned to the ON position or the
engine is running, or if it remains
illuminated after coming on for
approximately 3 seconds, take your
vehicle to your nearest authorized
HYUNDAI dealer and have the sys-
tem checked.
Low tire pressure tell-
tale
When the tire pressure monitoring
system warning indicator is illuminat-
ed, one or more of your tires is sig-
nificantly under-inflated.
Immediately reduce your speed,
avoid hard cornering and anticipate
increased stopping distances. You
should stop and check your tires as
soon as possible. Inflate the tires to
the proper pressure as indicated on
the vehicle’s placard or tire inflation
pressure label located on the driver’s
side center 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.
Then the TPMS malfunction indicator
may turn on and the Low Tire
Pressure telltale will remain on until
you have the low-pressure tire
repaired and replaced on the vehicle.
✽
✽ NOTICE
The compact spare tire is not
equipped with a tire pressure sensor.
