TPMS (Tyre Pressure
Monitoring System)
malfunction indicator
The TPMS Malfunction Indicator
will illuminate after it blinks for
approximately one minute when there
is a problem with the Tyre Pressure
Monitoring System.
We recommend that the system be
checked by an authorised Retailer of
Genesis Branded Products as soon as
possible.
NOTICE
If there is a malfunction with the TPMS,
the Low Tyre Pressure Position Telltale
will not be displayed even though the
vehicle has an under-inflated tyre.
NOTICE
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 electronic devices such as
computers, chargers, remote starters,
navigation, etc. This may interfere with
normal operation of the TPMS.
Changing a tyre with TPMS
If you have a flat tyre, the Low Tyre
Pressure and Position telltales will come
on. We recommend that the flat tyre be
repaired by an authorised Retailer of
Genesis Branded Products as soon as
possible or replace the flat tyre with the
spare tyre.
NOTICE
It is recommended that you do not use a
puncture-repairing agent not approved
by an authorised retailer of Genesis
Branded products or the equivalent
specified for your vehicle to repair
and/or inflate a low pressure tire. Tire
sealant not approved by an authorized
retailer of Genesis Branded or the
equivalent specified for your vehicle
may damage the tire pressure sensor.
The spare tyre (if equipped) does not
come with a tyre pressure monitoring
sensor. When the low pressure tyre or
the flat tyre is replaced with the spare
tyre, the Low Tyre Pressure Telltale will
remain on. Also, the TPMS Malfunction
Indicator will illuminate after blinking
for one minute if the vehicle is driven at
speed above 15.5 mph for approximately
10 minutes.
Once the original wheel equipped with
a tyre pressure monitoring sensor is
reinflated to the recommended pressure
and reinstalled on the vehicle, the
Low Tyre Pressure Telltale and TPMS
Malfunction Indicator will go off within a
few minutes of driving.
