9.Loosen the wheel nuts with the wheel

lug wrench and remove them with your

fingers. Remove the wheel from the

studs and lay it flat on the ground out of

the way. Remove any dirt or debris from

the studs, mounting surfaces, and

spare tire.

WARNING

Because the wheels may have sharp

edges, handle them carefully to avoid

possible severe injury. Before putting

the wheel into place, make sure that

there is nothing on the hub or wheel

(such as mud, tar, gravel, etc.) that

interferes with the wheel from fitting

solidly against the hub.
If there is, remove it. If there is not good

contact on the mounting surface

between the wheel and hub, the wheel

nuts may come loose and cause the

loss of a wheel. Loss of a wheel may

result in loss of control of the vehicle.

This may cause serious injury or death.

10.Install the spare tire onto the studs of

the hub.

11.Tighten the wheel nuts with your

fingers onto the studs with the smaller

end of the wheel nuts closest to the

wheel.

12.Lower the vehicle to the ground by

turning the jack handle

counterclockwise.

13.Use the wheel lug nut wrench to

tighten the wheel nuts in the order

shown. Double-check each wheel nut

until they are tight. After changing tires,

have an authorized HYUNDAI dealer

tighten the lug nuts to their proper

torque as soon as possible.
Tighten wheel nuts to 79-94 lbf.ft (11-13

kgf.m).

2C_SpareTireReplacementPrecedure_7

Check the tire pressure after installing the

compact spare tire. The compact spare

tire should be inflated to 60 psi (420 kPa).
If you have a tire gauge, check the tire

pressure (refer to the "Tires And Wheels"

section in chapter 2 for tire pressure

instructions). If the spare tire pressure is

lower or higher than the recommended,

drive slowly to the nearest service station

and adjust it to the recommended

pressure.
Always reinstall the valve cap after

checking or adjusting the tire pressure. If

the cap is not replaced, air may leak from

the tire. If you lose a valve cap, buy

another and install it as soon as possible.

After changing tires, secure the flat tire

and return the jack and tools to their

proper storage locations.

NOTICE

Check the tire pressure as soon as

possible after installing a spare tire.

Adjust it to the recommended pressure.

Emergency Situations

8-16

WARNING

Your vehicle has metric threads on the

studs and wheel nuts. During tire

changing, make sure that the wheel nuts

that were removed are reinstalled. If you

have to replace your wheel nuts, make

sure they have metric threads to avoid

damaging the studs and make sure the

wheel is properly secured to the hub.

Contact an authorized HYUNDAI dealer

for assistance.

If any of the equipment such as the jack,

wheel nuts, studs, or other equipment is

damaged or in poor condition, do not

attempt to change the tire and call for

assistance.

Use of compact spare tires

Compact spare tires are designed for

emergency use only. Drive carefully on

the compact spare tire and always follow

the safety precautions.

WARNING

To prevent compact spare tire failure and

loss of control, possibly resulting in a

collision:
• Use the compact spare tire only in an

emergency.

• NEVER operate your vehicle over 50

mph (80 km/h).

• Do not exceed the vehicle’s maximum

load rating or the load carrying capacity

shown on the sidewall of the compact

spare tire.

• Do not use the compact spare tire

continuously. Repair or replace the

original tire as soon as possible to avoid

failure of the compact spare tire.

When driving with the compact spare tire

mounted to your vehicle:
• Do not take this vehicle through an

automatic car wash after the compact

spare tire has been installed.

• Do not use the compact spare tire on

any other vehicle because this tire has

been designed especially for your

vehicle.

• The compact spare tire’s tread life is

shorter than a regular tire. Inspect your

compact spare tire regularly and

replace worn compact spare tires with

the same size and design, mounted on

the same wheel.

• Do not use more than one compact

spare tire at a time.

• Do not tow a trailer while the compact

spare tire is installed.

NOTICE

When the original tire and wheel are

repaired and reinstalled on the vehicle,

the wheel nut torque must be set

correctly. The correct wheel nut

tightening torque is 79-94 lbf.ft (11-13

kgf.m).

8-17

CAUTION

To prevent damaging the compact spare

tire and your vehicle:
• Drive slowly enough for the road

conditions to avoid all hazards, such as

a potholes or debris.

• Avoid driving over obstacles. The

compact spare tire diameter is smaller

than the diameter of a conventional tire

and reduces the ground clearance

about 1 inch (25 mm).

• Do not use tire chains on the compact

spare tire. Because of the smaller size, a

tire chain will not fit properly.

• Do not use the compact spare tire on

any other wheels, nor should standard

tires, snow tires, wheel covers or trim

rings be used with the compact spare

wheel.

• Do not suddenly accelerate or

decelerate (0-25 mph (0-40 km/h)) in

any driving mode. It may cause leakage

of transfer oil.

If You Have A Flat Tire

if equipped

(with Tire Mobility Kit)

2C_TMKOverview

(1) Compressor
(2) Sealant bottle
For safe operation, carefully read and

follow the instructions in this manual

before use.
The Tire Mobility Kit is a temporary fix to

the tire, have the tire replaced by an

authorized HYUNDAI dealer as soon as

possible.

CAUTION

When two or more tires are flat, do not

use the Tire Mobility Kit because the

sealant provided with the Tire Mobility Kit

must be used for only one flat tire.

WARNING

• Do not use the Tire Mobility Kit to repair

punctures in the tire walls. This can

result in an accident due to tire failure.

• Have your tire repaired as soon as

possible. The tire may lose air pressure

at any time after inflating with the Tire

Mobility Kit.

Introduction

With the Tire Mobility Kit you stay mobile

even after experiencing a tire puncture.
The compressor and sealing compound

system effectively and comfortably seals

most punctures in a passenger car tire

caused by nails or similar objects and

reinflates the tire.
After you are ensure that the tire is

properly sealed you can drive cautiously

on the tire (distance up to 120 miles (200

km)) at a maximum speed of 50 mph (80

km/h) in order to reach a service station

or tire dealer for tire replacement.
It is possible that some tires, especially

with larger punctures or damage to the

sidewall, cannot be sealed completely.
Air pressure loss in the tire may adversely

affect tire performance.
For this reason, you should avoid abrupt

steering or other driving maneuvers,

especially if the vehicle is heavily loaded

or if a trailer is in use.
The Tire Mobility Kit is not designed or

intended as a permanent tire repair

method and is to be used for one tire only.
This instruction shows you step by step

how to temporarily seal the puncture

simply and reliably.
Read the section “Notes on the safe use

of the Tire Mobility Kit”.

Emergency Situations

following conditions apply. If any of the following conditions apply, you must follow the

Maintenance Under Severe Usage Conditions.
• Repeated driving short distance of less than 5 miles (8 km) in normal temperature or

less than 10 miles (16 km) in freezing temperature

• Extensive engine idling or low speed driving for long distances
• Driving on rough, dusty, muddy, unpaved, graveled or salt-spread roads
• Driving in areas using salt or other corrosive materials or in very cold weather
• Driving in heavy dust conditions
• Driving in heavy traffic area
• Driving on uphill, downhill, or mountain road repeatedly
• Towing a trailer or using a camper, or driving with loads on the roof
• Driving as a patrol car, taxi, other commercial use of vehicle towing
• Frequently driving under high speed or rapid acceleration/deceleration
• Frequently driving in stop-and-go condition
• Engine oil usage which is not recommended (Mineral type, Semi-synthetic, Lower

grade spec, etc.)

If your vehicle is operated under the above conditions, you should inspect, replace or

refill more frequently than the following Normal Maintenance Schedule. After the periods

or distance shown in the chart, continue to follow the prescribed maintenance intervals.

NOTICE

After driving more than 10 years or 100,000 miles, use severe maintenance schedule.

Information

• As it is normal for engine oil to be consumed during driving, the engine oil level should

be checked on regular basis.

• The engine oil change interval for normal operating conditions is based on the use of

the recommended engine specification. If the recommended engine oil specification

is not used, then replace the engine oil according to the maintenance schedule under

severe operating conditions.

• The vehicle may be equipped with the Oil Life Management System that predicts

engine oil life based on the driver’s driving history and alerts the driver to change

engine oil.
- If the deterioration of the engine oil increases depending on the driver’s driving

severity, the remaining oil life alert appears on the instrument cluster before the

normal engine oil replacement interval. Have the engine oil and filter changed by an

authorized HYUNDAI dealer.

- Oil Life Management System works when the recommended engine oil is used. So,

if recommended engine oil is not used, replace the engine oil according to the

maintenance schedule under severe usage condition. Also, check the amount of

engine oil regularly as this system assumes that the engine oil is being filled normally.

- Always reset the remaining engine oil life whenever the engine oil is changed.

Otherwise, the indication of remaining Oil life in the Oil Life Management System

may not be accurate. To reset the Oil Change Reminder, select “

RESET

” from the

infotainment system. Then, select "

Yes

" when the message “Has the engine oil been

changed? Press [Yes] to reset the oil life.” appears on the screen.

- If there is no alert until the maximum maintenance interval, have your vehicle

inspected by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.

Normal maintenance schedule

I: Inspect and if necessary, adjust, correct, clean or replace.
R: Replace or change.

*1 The drive belt should be replaced when cracks occur or tension is reduced excessively.
*2 Requires <API SN PLUS (or above) Full synthetic> grade engine oil. If a lower grade engine oil (mineral type,

semi- synthetic, lower grade spec, etc.) is used, replace the engine oil and engine oil filter as indicated in

maintenance under severe usage conditions.

*3 Never add any additives to the engine oil. Engine oil additives can change the properties of engine oil and may

cause serious engine failure.

*4 If TOP TIER Detergent Gasoline is not available, one bottle of additive is recommended. Additives are available

from your authorized HYUNDAI dealer along with information on how to use them. Do not mix other additives.
