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.
