(cid:129) Don't "ride" the brake pedal. This can increase fuel consumption and also increase wear on these components. In addition, driving with your foot rest- ing on the brake pedal may cause the brakes to overheat, which reduces their effectiveness and may lead to more serious consequences.
(cid:129) Take care of your tires. Keep them inflated to the recommended pressure. Incorrect inflation, either too much or too little, results in unnecessary tire wear. Check the tire pressures at least once a month.
(cid:129) Be sure that the wheels are aligned correctly. Improper alignment can result from hitting curbs or driving too fast over irregular surfaces. Poor align- ment causes faster tire wear and may also result in other problems as well as greater fuel consumption.
Driving your vehicle
(cid:129) Keep your car in good condition. For
better fuel economy and reduced
maintenance costs, maintain your car
in accordance with the maintenance
schedule in section 7. If you drive your
car in severe conditions, more frequent
maintenance is required (see section 7
for details).
(cid:129) Keep your car clean. For maximum service, your vehicle should be kept clean and free of corrosive materials. It is especially important that mud, dirt, ice, etc. not be allowed to accumulate on the underside of the car. This extra weight can result in increased fuel con- sumption and also contribute to corro- sion.
(cid:129) Travel lightly. Don't carry unnecessary weight in your car. Weight reduces fuel economy.
(cid:129) Don't let the engine idle longer than necessary. If you are waiting (and not in traffic), turn off your engine and restart only when you're ready to go.
ECONOMICAL OPERATION E100000AEN Your vehicle's fuel economy depends mainly on your style of driving, where you drive and when you drive. Each of these factors affects how many miles (kilometers) you can get from a gal- lon (liter) of fuel. To operate your vehicle as economically as possible, use the fol- lowing driving suggestions to help save money in both fuel and repairs: (cid:129) Drive smoothly. Accelerate at a moder- ate rate. Don't make "jack-rabbit" starts or full-throttle shifts and maintain a steady cruising speed. Don't race between stoplights. Try to adjust your speed to that of the other traffic so you don't have to change speeds unneces- sarily. Avoid heavy traffic whenever possible. Always maintain a safe dis- tance from other vehicles so you can avoid unnecessary braking. This also reduces brake wear.
(cid:129) Drive at a moderate speed. The faster you drive the more fuel your vehicle uses. Driving at a moderate speed, in the highest gear appropriate for the conditions, especially on the highway, is one of the most effective ways to reduce fuel consumption.
5 53
Driving your vehicle
(cid:129) Remember, your vehicle does not require extended warm-up. After the engine has started, allow the engine to run for 10 to 20 seconds prior to plac- ing the vehicle in gear. In very cold weather, however, give your engine a slightly longer warm-up period.
(cid:129) Don't "lug" or "over-rev" the engine. Lugging is driving too slowly in too high a gear resulting in the engine bucking. If this happens, shift to a lower gear. Over-revving is racing the engine beyond its safe limit. This can be avoid- ed by shifting at the recommended speeds.
(cid:129) Use your air conditioning sparingly. The air conditioning system is operat- ed by engine power so your fuel econ- omy is reduced when you use it.
(cid:129) Open windows at high speeds can
reduce fuel economy.
(cid:129) Fuel economy is less in crosswinds and headwinds. To help offset some of this loss, slow down when driving in these conditions.
Keeping a vehicle in good operating con- dition is important both for economy and safety. Therefore, have an authorized HYUNDAI dealer perform scheduled inspections and maintenance.
WARNING - Engine off dur-
ing motion
Never turn the engine off to coast down hills or anytime the vehicle is in motion. The power steering and power brakes will not function properly without the engine run- ning. Instead, keep the engine on and downshift to an appropriate gear for engine braking effect. In addition, turning off the ignition while driving could engage the steering wheel lock resulting in loss of vehicle steering which could cause serious injury or death.

SPECIAL DRIVING CONDITIONS
OBH058034
E110100ABH Hazardous driving conditions When hazardous driving conditions are encountered such as water, snow, ice, mud, sand, or similar hazards, follow these suggestions: (cid:129) Drive cautiously and allow extra dis-
tance for braking.
(cid:129) Avoid sudden movements in braking or
steering.
WARNING - ABS
Do not pump the brake pedal on a vehicle equipped with ABS.
(cid:129) If stalled in snow, mud, or sand, use second gear. Accelerate slowly to avoid spinning the drive wheels.
(cid:129) Use sand, rock salt, tire chains, or other non-slip material under the drive wheels to provide traction when stalled in ice, snow, or mud.
(cid:129) Leave ESC system on for best traction to get vehicle
when attempting unstuck.
WARNING - Downshifting
Downshifting with an automatic transmission, while driving on slip- pery surfaces can cause an acci- dent. The sudden change in tire speed could cause the tires to skid. Be careful when downshifting on slippery surfaces.
Driving your vehicle
E110200ABH-EU Rocking the vehicle If it is necessary to rock the vehicle to free it from snow, sand, or mud, first turn the steering wheel right and left to clear the area around your front wheels. Then, shift back and forth between R (Reverse) and any forward gear in vehicles equipped with an automatic transmission. Do not race the engine, and spin the wheels as little as possible. If you are still stuck after a few tries, have the vehicle pulled out by a tow vehicle to avoid engine overheating and possible damage to the transmission.
CAUTION
Prolonged rocking may cause engine over-heating, transmission damage or failure,and tire damage.
5 55
Driving your vehicle
WARNING - Spinning tires
Do not spin the wheels, especially
at speeds more than 35 mph (56
km/h). Spinning the wheels at high
speeds when the vehicle is station-
ary could cause a tire to overheat
which could result in tire damage
that may injure bystanders.
✽✽ NOTICE The ESC system should be turned OFF prior to rocking the vehicle.
WARNING
If your vehicle becomes stuck in snow, mud, sand, etc., then you may attempt to rock the vehicle free by moving it forward and backward. Do not attempt this procedure if people or objects are anywhere near the vehicle. During the rocking operation the vehicle may suddenly move forward or backward as it becomes unstuck, causing injury or damage to nearby people or objects.

E110300AUN Smooth cornering Avoid braking or gear changing in cor- ners, especially when roads are wet. Finish braking before entering a turn while the vehicle is still travelling in a straight line. Ideally, corners should always be taken under gentle accelera- tion. If you follow these suggestions, tire wear will be held to a minimum.
E110400ABH-EU Driving at night Because night driving presents more hazards than driving in the daylight, here are some important tips to remember: (cid:129) Slow down and keep more distance between you and other vehicles, as it may be more difficult to see at night, especially in areas where there may not be any street lights.
(cid:129) Adjust your mirrors to reduce the glare
from other driver's headlights.
(cid:129) Keep your headlights clean and prop- erly aimed. Dirty or improperly aimed headlights will make it much more diffi- cult to see at night. Headlight operation when using windshield wipers is mandatory in some states.
(cid:129) Avoid staring directly at the headlights of oncoming vehicles. You could be temporarily blinded, and it will take several seconds for your eyes to read- just to the darkness.
Driving your vehicle
(cid:129) If your tires are not in good condition, making a quick stop on wet pavement can cause a skid and possibly lead to an accident. Be sure your tires are in good shape.
(cid:129) Turn on your headlights to make it eas-
ier for others to see you.
(cid:129) Driving too fast through large puddles can affect your brakes. If you must go through puddles, try to drive through them slowly.
(cid:129) If you believe you may have gotten your brakes wet, apply them lightly while driving until normal braking oper- ation returns.
E110600AUN Driving in flooded areas Avoid driving through flooded areas unless you are sure the water is no high- er than the bottom of the wheel hub. Drive through any water slowly. Allow adequate stopping distance because brake performance may be affected. After driving through water, dry the brakes by gently applying them several times while the vehicle is moving slowly.
5 57
OBH058037L
E110500AUN Driving in the rain Rain and wet roads can make driving dangerous, especially if you’re not pre- pared for the slick pavement. Here are a few things to consider when driving in the rain: (cid:129) A heavy rainfall will make it harder to see and will increase the distance needed to stop your vehicle, so slow down.
(cid:129) Keep your windshield wiping equip- ment in good shape. Replace your windshield wiper blades when they show signs of streaking or missing areas on the windshield.
Fuel,engine coolant and engine oil High speed travel consumes more fuel than urban motoring. Do not forget to check both engine coolant and engine oil.
Drive belt A loose or damaged drive belt may result in overheating of the engine.
WARNING
(cid:129) Underinflated or overinflated tires can cause poor handling, loss of vehicle control, and sud- den tire failure leading to acci- dents, injuries, and even death. Always check tires for proper inflation before driving. For prop- er tire pressures, refer to “Tires and wheels” in section 8.
(cid:129) Driving on tires with no or insuffi- cient tread is dangerous. Worn- out tires can result in loss of vehicle control, collisions, injury, and even death. Worn-out tires should be replaced as soon as possible and should never be used for driving. Always check the tire tread before driving your car. For further information and tread limits, refer to “Tires and wheels” in section 7.
Driving your vehicle
OBH028001
E110700ABH Highway driving Tires Adjust the tire inflation pressures to specification. Low tire inflation pressures will result in overheating and possible failure of the tires. Avoid using worn or damaged tires which may result in reduced traction or tire fail- ure.

WINTER DRIVING
OBH058040
E120000ABH More severe weather conditions of winter result in greater wear and other prob- lems. To minimize winter driving problem, you should follow these suggestions:
Driving your vehicle
E120100AUN Snowy or icy conditions To drive your vehicle in deep snow, it may be necessary to use snow tires or to install tire chains on your tires. If snow tires are needed, it is necessary to select tires equivalent in size and type of the original equipment tires. Failure to do so may adversely affect the safety and han- dling of your car. Furthermore, speeding, rapid acceleration, sudden brake appli- cations, and sharp turns are potentially very hazardous practices. During deceleration, use engine braking to the fullest extent. Sudden brake appli- cations on snowy or icy roads may cause skids to occur. You need to keep suffi- cient distance between the vehicle in operation in front and your vehicle. Also, apply the brake gently. It should be noted that installing tire chains on the tire will provide a greater driving force, but will not prevent side skids.
✽✽ NOTICE Tire chains are not legal in all states. Check state laws before fitting tire chains.
E120101AUN Snow tires If you mount snow tires on your vehicle, make sure they are radial tires of the same size and load range as the original tires. Mount snow tires on all four wheels to balance your vehicle’s handling in all weather conditions. Keep in mind that the traction provided by snow tires on dry roads may not be as high as your vehi- cle's original equipment tires. You should drive cautiously even when the roads are clear. Check with the tire dealer for max- imum speed recommendations.
WARNING - Snow tire size Snow tires should be equivalent in size and type to the vehicle's stan- dard tires. Otherwise, the safety and handling of your vehicle may be adversely affected.
Do not install studded tires without first checking local, state and municipal regu- lations for possible restrictions against their use.
5 59
CAUTION
(cid:129) Make sure the snow chains are the correct size and type for your tires. Incorrect snow chains can cause damage to the vehicle body and suspension and may not be covered by your vehicle manufac- turer warranty. Also, the snow chain connecting hooks may be damaged from contacting vehicle components causing the snow chains to come loose from the tire. Make sure the snow chains are SAE class “S”certified.
(cid:129) Always check chain installation
for proper mounting after driving
approximately 0.3 to 0.6 miles (0.5
to 1 km) to ensure safe mounting.
Retighten or remount the chains
if they are loose.
Chain installation When installing chains, follow the manu- facturer's instructions and mount them as tightly as you can. Drive slowly with chains installed. If you hear the chains contacting the body or chassis, stop and tighten them. If they still make contact, slow down until it stops. Remove the chains as soon as you begin driving on cleared roads.
WARNING - Mounting chains
When mounting snow chains, park the vehicle on level ground away from traffic. Turn on the vehicle Hazard Warning flashers and place a triangular emergency warning device behind the vehicle if avail- able. Always place the vehicle in P (Park), apply the parking brake and turn off the engine before installing snow chains.
Driving your vehicle
OBH058042
E120102ABH Tire chains Since the sidewalls of radial tires are thinner, they can be damaged by mount- ing some types of snow chains on them. Therefore, the use of snow tires is rec- ommended instead of snow chains. Do not mount tire chains on vehicles equipped with aluminum wheels; snow chains may cause damage to the wheels. If snow chains must be used, use wire- type chains with a thickness of less than 0.47 in (12 mm). Damage to your vehicle caused by improper snow chain use is not covered by your vehicle manufactur- ers warranty. Install tire chains only on the rear tires.
60
WARNING - Tire chains
(cid:129) The use of chains may adversely
affect vehicle handling.
(cid:129) Do not exceed 20 mph (30 km/h) or the chain manufacturer’s rec- ommended speed limit, whichev- er is lower.
(cid:129) Drive carefully and avoid bumps, holes, sharp turns, and other road hazards, which may cause the vehicle to bounce.
(cid:129) Avoid sharp turns or locked-
wheel braking.
CAUTION
(cid:129) Chains that are the wrong size or improperly installed can damage your vehicle's brake lines, sus- pension,body and wheels.
(cid:129) Stop driving and retighten the chains any time you hear them hitting the vehicle.
E120200AUN Use high quality ethylene glycol coolant Your vehicle is delivered with high quality ethylene glycol coolant in the cooling system. It is the only type of coolant that should be used because it helps prevent corrosion in the cooling system, lubri- cates the water pump and prevents freezing. Be sure to replace or replenish your coolant in accordance with the maintenance schedule in section 7. Before winter, have your coolant tested to assure that its freezing point is sufficient for the temperatures anticipated during the winter.
E120300AEN Check battery and cables Winter puts additional burdens on the battery system. Visually inspect the bat- tery and cables as described in section 7. The level of charge in your battery can be checked by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer or a service station.
Driving your vehicle
E120400ABH
Change to "winter weight" oil if
necessary
In some climates it is recommended that
a lower viscosity "winter weight" oil be
used during cold weather. See section 8
for recommendations. If you aren't sure
what weight oil you should use, consult
an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
E120500AUN Check spark plugs and ignition system Inspect your spark plugs as described in section 7 and replace them if necessary. Also check all ignition wiring and compo- nents to be sure they are not cracked, worn or damaged in any way.
5 61
E121000AUN Carry emergency equipment Depending on the severity of the weath- er where you drive your car, you should carry appropriate emergency equipment. Some of the items you may want to carry include tire chains, tow straps or chains, flashlight, emergency flares, sand, a shovel, jumper cables, a window scraper, gloves, ground cloth, coveralls, a blanket, etc.
Driving your vehicle
E120600AUN To keep locks from freezing To keep the locks from freezing, squirt an approved de-icer fluid or glycerine into the key opening. If a lock is covered with ice, squirt it with an approved de-icing fluid to remove the ice. If the lock is frozen internally, you may be able to thaw it out by using a heated key. Handle the heated key with care to avoid injury.
E120700AEN Use approved window washer anti-freeze in system To keep the water in the window washer system from freezing, add an approved window washer anti-freeze solution in accordance with instructions on the con- tainer. Window washer anti-freeze is available from an authorized HYUNDAI dealer and most auto parts outlets. Do not use engine coolant or other types of anti-freeze as these may damage the paint finish.
E120800ABH Don't let your parking brake freeze Under some conditions your parking brake can freeze in the engaged position. This is most likely to happen when there is an accumulation of snow or ice around or near the rear brakes or if the brakes are wet. If there is a risk the parking brake may freeze, apply it only temporar- ily while you put the gear selector lever in P and block the rear wheels so the car cannot roll. Then release the parking brake.
E120900AUN Don't let ice and snow accumu- late underneath Under some conditions, snow and ice can build up under the fenders and inter- fere with the steering. When driving in severe winter conditions where this may happen, you should periodically check underneath the car to be sure the move- ment of the front wheels and the steering components is not obstructed.

904 lbs. (410 kg)
Vehicle capacity weight is the maxi- mum combined weight of occupants and cargo.
E150102ABH Seating capacity:
Total : 5 persons
(Front seat : 2 persons, Rear seat : 3 persons)
Seating capacity is the maximum number of occupants including a driver, your vehicle may carry. However, the seating capacity may be reduced based upon the weight of all of the occupants, and the weight of the cargo being carried. Do not overload the vehicle as there is a limit to the total weight, or load limit including occupants and cargo, the vehicle can carry.

Steps For Determining Correct Load
Limit -
1. Locate the statement "The com-
bined weight of occupants and
cargo should never exceed XXX
kg or XXX lbs.'' on your vehicle's
placard.
2. Determine the combined weight of the driver and passengers that will be riding in your vehicle.
3. Subtract the combined weight of the driver and passengers from XXX kg or XXX lbs.
4. The resulting figure equals the
available amount of cargo and lug-
gage load capacity. For example, if
the "XXX" amount equals 1400
lbs. and there will be five 150 lb
passengers in your vehicle, the
amount of available cargo and lug-
gage load capacity is 650 lbs.
(1400-750 (5 x 150) = 650 lbs.)

OBH059070
E150200ABH Certification label The certification label is located on the driver's door sill at the center pil- lar. This label shows the maximum allowable weight of the fully loaded vehicle. This is called the GVWR (Gross Vehicle Weight Rating). The GVWR includes the weight of the vehicle, all occupants, fuel and cargo. This label also tells you the maxi- mum weight that can be supported by the front and rear axles, called Gross Axle Weight Rating (GAWR).
66
To find out the actual loads on your front and rear axles, you need to go to a weigh station and weigh your vehicle.Your dealer can help you with this. Be sure to spread out your load equally on both sides of the center- line.
WARNING - Over loading
(cid:129) Never exceed the GVWR for your vehicle, the GAWR for either the front or rear axle and vehicle capacity weight. Exceeding these ratings can cause an accident or vehicle damage.You can calculate the weight of your load by weigh- ing the items (or people) before putting them in the vehicle. Be careful not to over- load your vehicle.
(Continued)
(Continued) (cid:129) Do not load your vehicle any heavier than the GVWR, either the maximum front or rear GAWR and vehicle capacity weight. If you do, parts, including tires on your vehicle can break, and it can change the way your vehicle handles and braking ability. This could cause you to lose control and crash. Also, overloading can shorten the life of your vehi- cle.
The label will help you decide how much cargo and installed equipment your vehicle can carry.
If you carry items inside your vehicle - like suitcases, tools, packages, or anything else - they are moving as fast as the vehicle. If you have to stop or turn quickly, or if there is a crash, the items will keep going and can cause an injury if they strike the driv- er or a passenger.
WARNING
(cid:129) Overloading your vehicle can cause heat buildup in your vehicle's tires and possible tire failure that could lead to a crash.
(cid:129) Overloading your vehicle can cause increased stopping dis- tances that could lead to a crash.
(cid:129) A crash resulting from poor handling, vehicle damage, tire failure, or increased stopping distances could result in seri- ous injury or death.
CAUTION
(cid:129) Overloading your vehicle may cause damage. Repairs would not be covered by your warran- ty.Do not overload your vehicle. (cid:129) Using heavier suspension com- ponents to get added durability might not change your weight ratings.Ask your dealer to help you load your vehicle the right way.
Driving your vehicle
WARNING - Loose cargo
Items you carry inside your vehicle can strike and injure occupants in a sudden stop or turn, or in a crash. (cid:129) Put items in the cargo area of your vehicle. Try to spread the weight evenly.
(cid:129) Never stack items, like suit- the vehicle
cases, above the tops of the seats.

F040100AEN Jump starting Jump starting can be dangerous if done incorrectly. Therefore, to avoid harm to yourself or damage to your vehicle or battery, follow the jump starting proce- dures. If in doubt, we strongly recom- mend that you have a competent techni- cian or towing service jump start your vehicle.
CAUTION
Use only a 12-volt jumper system. You can damage a 12-volt starting motor, ignition system, and other electrical parts beyond repair by use of a 24-volt power supply (either two 12-volt batteries in series or a 24-volt motor generator set).
WARNING - Battery
Never attempt to check the elec- trolyte level of the battery as this may cause the battery to rupture or explode causing serious injury.
WARNING - Battery
• Keep all flames or sparks away from the battery. The battery pro- duces hydrogen gas which may explode if exposed to flame or sparks. If these instructions are not fol- lowed exactly, serious personal injury and damage to the vehicle may occur! If you are not sure how to follow this procedure, seek assistance. Automobile batteries contain sul- furic acid. This is poisonous and highly corrosive. When jump starting, wear protective glasses and be careful not to get acid on yourself, your clothing or on the car.

F040101ABH-EU Jump starting procedure 1. Make sure the booster battery is 12- volt and that its negative terminal is grounded.
2. If the booster battery is in another vehicle, do not allow the vehicles to touch.
3. Turn off all unnecessary electrical
loads.
4. Connect the jumper cables in the exact sequence shown in the illustration. First connect one end of a jumper cable to the positive terminal of the jumper terminal (1), then connect the other end to the positive terminal on the booster battery (2). Proceed to connect one end of the other jumper cable to the negative ter- minal of the booster battery (3), then the other end to the negative terminal of the jumper terminal (4). Do not con- nect it to or near any part that moves when the engine is cranked.
Do not allow the jumper cables to con- tact anything except the correct battery terminals or the correct ground. Do not lean over the battery when making connections.
CAUTION - Battery cables
Do not connect the jumper cable from the negative terminal of the booster battery to the negative ter- minal of the discharged battery. This can cause the discharged bat- tery to overheat and crack, releas- ing battery acid.
5. Start the engine of the vehicle with the
booster battery and let it run at 2,000
rpm, then start the engine of the vehi-
cle with the discharged battery.
If the cause of your battery discharging is not apparent, you should have your vehi- cle checked by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.

What to do in an emergency
IF THE ENGINE OVERHEATS F050000ABH If your temperature gauge indicates over- heating, you experience a loss of power, or hear loud pinging or knocking, the engine is probably too hot. If this hap- pens, you should:
1. Pull off the road and stop as soon as it
is safe to do so.
2. Place the shift lever in P and set the parking brake. If the air conditioning is on, turn it off.
3. If engine coolant is running out under the car or steam is coming out from the hood, stop the engine. Do not open the hood until the coolant has stopped running or the steaming has stopped. If there is no visible loss of engine coolant and no steam, leave the engine running and check to be sure the engine cooling fan is operating. If the fan is not running, turn the engine off.
66
6.If you cannot find the cause of the overheating, wait until the engine tem- perature has returned to normal. Then, if coolant has been lost, carefully add coolant to the reservoir to bring the fluid level in the reservoir up to the halfway mark.
7.Proceed with caution, keeping alert for further signs of overheating. If over- heating happens again, call an author- ized HYUNDAI dealer for assistance.
CAUTION
Serious loss of coolant indicates there is a leak in the cooling system and this should be checked as soon as possible by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
4. Check to see if the water pump drive belt is missing. If it is not missing, check to see that it is tight. If the drive belt seems to be satisfactory, check for coolant leaking from the radiator, hoses or under the car. (If the air con- ditioning had been in use, it is normal for cold water to be draining from it when you stop.)
WARNING
While the engine is running, keep hair, hands and clothing away from moving parts such as the fan and drive belts to prevent injury.
5. If the water pump drive belt is broken or engine coolant is leaking out, stop the engine immediately and call the nearest authorized HYUNDAI dealer for assistance.
WARNING
Do not remove the radiator cap when the engine is hot. This may result in coolant being blown out of the opening and cause serious burns.

(1) TPMS Malfunction Indicator (2) Low Tire Pressure Telltale (3) Low Tire Pressure Position Telltale (if equipped)
What to do in an emergency
F060000ABH Each tire, including the spare (if pro- vided), should be checked monthly when cold and inflated to the inflation pressure recommended by the vehi- cle manufacturer on the vehicle plac- ard or tire inflation pressure label. (If your vehicle has tires of a different size than the size indicated on the vehicle placard or tire inflation pres- sure label, you should determine the proper tire inflation pressure for those tires.) As an added safety feature, your vehicle has been equipped with a tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) that illuminates a low tire pressure telltale when one or more of your tires is significantly under-inflated. Accordingly, when the low tire pres- sure telltale illuminates, you should stop and check your tires as soon as possible, and inflate them to the proper pressure. Driving on a signifi- cantly under-inflated tire causes the tire to overheat and can lead to tire failure. Under-inflation also reduces fuel efficiency and tire tread life, and may affect the vehicle’s handling and stopping ability.
6 7
What to do in an emergency
Please note that the TPMS is not a substitute for proper tire mainte- nance, and it is the driver’s responsi- bility to maintain correct tire pres- sure, even if under-inflation has not reached the level to trigger illumina- tion 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 telltale, 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 intend- ed. TPMS malfunctions may occur for a variety of reasons, including the installation of replacement or alter- nate tires or wheels on the vehicle that prevent the TPMS from function- ing properly. Always check the TPMS malfunction telltale after replacing one or more tires or wheels on your vehicle to ensure that the replace- ment or alternate tires and wheels allow the TPMS to continue to func- tion properly.
86
✽✽ 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.
F060100ABH-EU
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.
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.
The Low Tire Pressure and Position 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.
CAUTION
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 your TPMS 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.

F060200ABH
TPMS
TPMS (Tire Pressure Monitoring System) malfunction indicator
The TPMS malfunction indicator comes on and stays on when there is a problem with the Tire Pressure Monitoring System. The system is able to correctly detect an under- inflation warning at the same time as system failure and then it will illumi- nate both the TPMS malfunction and the low tire pressure telltale. If the Front Left sensor fails, the TPMS malfunction indicator illuminates, but if the Front Right, Rear Left, or Rear Right tire is under-inflated, the low tire pressure and position telltales may illuminate together with the TPMS malfunction indicator. Have the system checked by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer as soon as possible to determine the cause of the problem.

What to do in an emergency
CAUTION
(cid:129) The TPMS malfunction indica- tor may be illuminated if the vehicle is moving around elec- tric power supply cables or radio 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).
(cid:129) The TPMS malfunction indica- tor may be illuminated if snow chains are used or some sep- arate electronic devices such as notebook computer,mobile charger,remote starter or nav- igation etc., are used in the vehicle.This can interfere with normal operation of the Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS).

(Continued) (cid:129) If there is a failed tire sensor,it is possible for TPMS to tem- porarily learn a replacement sensor when you drive closely to another vehicle equipped with TPMS too. In rare cases, this may temporarily delay the TPMS malfunction turning on.
F060300BBH-EU Changing a tire with TPMS If you have a flat tire, the Low Tire Pressure and Position telltales will come on. Have the flat tire repaired by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer as soon as possible or replace the flat tire with the compact spare tire.
CAUTION
NEVER use a puncture-repair- ing agent to repair and/or inflate a low pressure tire. The tire sealant can damage the tire pressure sensor. If used, you will have to replace the tire pres- sure sensor.

Each wheel is equipped with a tire pressure sensor mounted inside the tire behind the valve stem. You must use TPMS specific wheels. It is rec- ommended that you always have your tires serviced by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer as soon as possi- ble. The spare tire is not equipped with a tire pressure monitoring sensor. When is replaced with the spare tire, the low tire pressure and the low tire pres- sure position telltales may extinguish and the TPMS malfunction indicator may illuminate after restarting and within 20 minutes continuous driving. The TPMS malfunction indicator may remain on until the original tire equipped with a tire pressure moni- toring sensor is reinflated to the rec- ommended pressure and reinstalled on the vehicle until the vehicle has been driven for a few minutes.

CAUTION
(cid:129) Do not use any tire sealant if your vehicle is equipped with a Tire Pressure Monitoring System.The liquid sealant can damage the tire pressure sen- sors.
(cid:129) In order to correctly monitor tire inflation, the 4 tire pres- sure monitoring sensors should be exactly fitted to each of the 4 driven wheels. There should not be any other sensors in the vehicle (includ- ing in the spare tire), as this may cause the system to incorrectly monitor tire infla- tion.
Once the low pressure tire is re- inflated to the recommended pres- sure and installed on the vehicle, the
