TPMS malfunction indicator
2C_TPMSMalfunctionOverview
The TPMS Malfunction Indicator ( )
illuminates after it blinks for about one
minute when there is a problem with the
Tire Pressure Monitoring System.
Have the system inspected by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer as soon as
possible.
If there is a malfunction with the TPMS,
the individual tire pressures on the cluster
display are not available. Have the system
inspected by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer as soon as possible.
The TPMS Malfunction Indicator may
illuminate after blinking for one minute if
the vehicle is near electric power supply
cables or radio transmitters such as police
stations, government and public offices,
broadcasting stations, military
installations, airports, transmitting
towers, etc.
Additionally, the TPMS Malfunction
Indicator may illuminate if snow chains
are used or if electronic devices such as
computers, chargers, remote starters,
navigation, etc. are near the vehicle. This
may interfere with normal operation of
the TPMS.
Changing a tire with TPMS
If you have a flat tire, the Low Tire
Pressure and Position telltales come on.
Have the flat tire repaired by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer as soon as
possible or replace the flat tire with the
spare tire.
It is recommended that you do not use a
puncture-repairing agent not approved
by HYUNDAI dealer or the equivalent
specified for your vehicle to repair and/or
inflate a low pressure tire. Tire sealant not
approved by HYUNDAI dealer or the
equivalent specified for your vehicle may
damage the tire pressure sensor.
The spare tire (if equipped) does not
come with a tire pressure monitoring
sensor. When the low pressure tire or the
flat tire is replaced with the spare tire, the
Low Tire Pressure Telltale remains on.
Also, the TPMS Malfunction Indicator
illuminates after blinking for one minute if
the vehicle is driven at the speed above
15.5 mph (25 km/h) for about 10 minutes.
Once the original wheel equipped with a
tire pressure monitoring sensor is
reinflated to the recommended pressure
and reinstalled on the vehicle, the Low
Tire Pressure Telltale and TPMS
Malfunction Indicator goes off within a
few minutes of driving.
If the indicators do not turn off after a few
minutes, visit an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer.
Each wheel is equipped with a tire
pressure sensor mounted inside the tire
behind the valve stem (except for the
spare tire). You must use TPMS specific
wheels. Always have your tires serviced
by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
