If you have a question, what does the Hyundai Creta wheel consist of, then it includes the following components: disc, hub, rim and tire. Which of these elements are unconditionally suitable for this brand and which ones have varieties, we will understand in more detail.

The release of the South Korean crossover Hyundai Kreta began in 2014. During this time it has gone through several modifications. Different versions of the machine are equipped with their own regular wheels, which are divided into several types - in size and design.

Want to know what tires are on the Hyundai Creta? Let's take a look at its characteristics. As with all cars, tires can be divided into two types according to the season - winter and summer.

Tires are an important element of vehicle safety. During production, they undergo various tests, so they are suitable for operation even under severe loads. They also affect the dynamics and fuel consumption.

Hyundai tires are equipped with pressure sensors, so you should be careful when choosing a tire shop, as an inexperienced worker can simply break the device, and a new one is expensive. Standard readings: 2.3+0.07 kg/cm² (33+1.0psi). If there are any problems with pressure, this will be signaled by a light on the dashboard.

On the forums you can often find information about its breakdown - that is, it blinks for no good reason or will not respond at all. This can lead to the installation of new rubber by an inexperienced craftsman. If the package also includes a Super Vision panel, then the screen will display information about the state of pressure in each wheel.

Winter tires for Hyundai Creta: which one to choose?

The choice of the appropriate option depends on how the car behaves in winter on snowy roads.

You should approach this with all responsibility and make a purchase in advance. Keep the following guidelines in mind when viewing.

If you are wondering what summer tires are right for a Hyundai Creta to buy, most drivers prefer wide tires so that there is more wheel contact with the road surface.

When choosing a winter tire, this method cannot be guided, it is better to follow the manufacturer's requirements. When preparing for the winter period, it is necessary to take into account the operating conditions of the car and the climatic features of the region. Rubber is divided into three categories.

studded. The second name of tires is Scandinavian. Suitable for almost all regions of the Russian Federation, even for icy roads. The right choice for beginners. Disadvantages - high noise level. If you drive at high speed, the spikes can fly out of the seats, which will damage the fender liner or even damage the cars behind.
Non-studded(friction). This type of tires is put for especially snowy areas. They have softer rubber and a deeper tread than the previous version. But they give poor handling on icy roads.
Friction for mild winters. They have a special material composition and tread pattern, which allows you to comfortably ride through puddles and slush. They can be supplied for dry and wet asphalt, but not for ice and severe frost (maximum -15 °C).

Tires are also classified according to the tread pattern.

Classical. They are considered universal, so they often go among the regular ones.
Directed. This is the most common pattern among foreign cars. It repels water well and self-cleans from snow.
Asymmetrical. Also one of the current ones. The above characteristics are slightly lower, but with such tires the car enters turns more confidently.
Deep. This is an off-road option for all-wheel drive modification. It has increased noise and not the best handling.

Prices for tires for Hyundai Crete range from 4 to 12 thousand rubles, depending on the manufacturer.

Disc selection

If the owner wants to tune his car, then the first thing he changes (in most cases) is the rims. Standard 16-inch stamped wheels are installed in the basic equipment of Start and Active cars. But some owners immediately replace them due to the visual component or an increase in their diameter.

What wheels are on the Hyundai Creta?

If you are thinking about this purchase, you need to know the right parameters so as not to make a mistake with the choice. The official price list shows the following parameters with prices, which wheels are suitable for Hyundai Creta:

stamped wheels with tires 205/65 R16;
alloy wheels with tires 205/65 R16;
light alloy 17 inches with tires 215/60 R17.

Tires 215/65 R16 may also fit the 16" size.

Disk sizes consist of the following characteristics.

General:

PCD (drilling) 5×114.3;
DIA (center hole diameter) - 67.1 mm;
nut - М12×5.

16-inch - J5x16 ET45, where:

D (diameter) 16.
J (width) 6.5.
ET (departure) 45.

17-inch - J 6.5x D 17 ET48.

Also, the size can be indicated as follows: 6.0Jx16 and 6.5Jx17.

The above options will help you choose the right wheels for Greta. If you want to purchase 18-inch equipment, you will first need to check whether the wheels will come into contact with metal body elements or fender liner. In such products, there must be only five holes for fastening.

How are Hyundai Creta wheels attached: replacing a punctured wheel?

To repair a punctured Hyundai Crete wheel, especially if it is practically new, you need to contact a tire service. If it is not close, it is better not to risk it and put a spare. If you decide to drive on a punctured wheel, you will only increase the damage to the disc and hub. When replacing a spare tire, a jack is required.

After doing several of these operations (although we hope that you will encounter this problem infrequently), you will gain the necessary experience, and you will not have to spend more than 10-15 minutes on a replacement. Additional time can only be spent on unloading the contents of the luggage compartment in search of a spare wheel.

Work is prohibited on the lane. You need to drive off to a flat and solid area outside the road. In the absence of such, it is better to call a tow truck. You need to start the process by turning on the alarm.

The spare wheel of the Hyundai Creta is stamped. It is located under the lid of the luggage compartment, along with a compact set of tools that are intended for emergency use only.

They consist of:

manual screw jack with a special groove;
handles to it;
towing hook;
wrench for wheel nuts.

Be prepared for the fact that even in the maximum configuration they can put a non-full-size spare tire. That is, the standard size is R17 (Diamont alloy wheel), and the find in the trunk is R16.

To get the spare wheel, you need to release it from the lock located in the center. To do this, turn the wing clamping bolt counterclockwise. When you return the spare wheel to its place, screw it in the opposite direction. Try to keep all the details in their places to avoid rattling.

The jack is installed in specially designated places on the bottom of the body, otherwise the sealing molding may be damaged. The edge of the car body should fall into a special groove of the jack. The tool should be placed vertically on a firm, level surface. There is a special eyelet for the handle. Use the handle carefully, as it is easy to injure yourself on its edges.

When operating the jack, apply the parking brake and stop the engine. If you have a mechanic, shift the lever to neutral. In the automatic box, this should be the “P” (“Parking”) position. You can not climb under the car if a jack is used. During operation, all passengers must leave the vehicle.

The detailed process looks like this.

Block the wheel diagonally and the wheel against the element to be replaced.
Loosen the metric mounting nuts with a wrench, but not all the way.
Jack up, insert the handle and rotate clockwise until the wheel is no longer touching the ground. The machine must be stable in this position.
Unscrew the nuts by hand, and remove the wheel from the studs. Remove dirt from all process elements.
Place the spare on the hub stud.
Tighten the nuts by hand so that the tapered part of them is facing the wheel.
Lower the machine to the ground by rotating the jack handle to the other side.
Tighten the nuts with a wrench.
If you have a pressure gauge, you should check the tire pressure. If not, be sure to do it upon arrival to a specialist.

There is a warning sticker on the spare tire - the speed of the car during its operation should not exceed 80 km / h. Almost any damage can be reanimated and these tires can continue to be used after balancing the assembled wheel.

How to overboard a wheel on the road?

Knowledge in this area will be needed if a wheel has broken through on the way, but there is no spare tire, and there is also a tire fitting nearby. If the puncture is less than 5 mm, then the wheel can be repaired without removing it from the rim. This should be done as quickly as possible while the pressure is holding. There are special repair kits for this.

For larger holes, separate the tire from the rim and work from the inside. Often the tire is glued to the wheel during operation. How much depends on time, rubber compound, and rim design. It is especially difficult if it is intended for a tubeless tire. It is difficult to separate them from each other even in a workshop. But this problem can overtake you along the way, and often the driver does not have a special repair tool. Some use their weight by standing on a lying wheel, but this rarely works. There are several other effective ways.

Lay a board on the tire and drive over it in a car. But this method is very doubtful, since you don’t really ride on three wheels, and if you have a spare tire, isn’t it better to get to a tire shop?
Dismantling shock with the participation of a sledgehammer and a piece of a corner made of metal (or a spring). There is a risk of spoiling both the tire and the disk. Therefore, it is better to use safer methods.
The use of a jack and other auxiliary devices: mounting blade, strap, open-end wrench, rope, etc.

Treat the materials with a penetrating liquid for five minutes (such as WD-40 or Unisma) before starting work to make the rubber come off the rim more easily.

With all this knowledge, you can easily select the right option for your car, as well as carry out repairs in a timely manner, even in the absence of comfortable working conditions.

On the track, the main role is always given to tire pressure. The rigidity of the tire affects the contact of the car with the road, and this in turn ensures the safety of the driver. In the countries of the European Union and the USA, the installation of pressure sensors is a prerequisite. Often their absence leads to terrible accidents at high speeds. Consider all aspects of Hyundai Creta tire pressure sensors: their principle of operation, troubleshooting methods and dismantling the system with your own hands.

Pressure control system and its tasks in Hyundai Creta

From the name of the tire pressure sensors themselves in Hyundai Creta, we can draw the main conclusion - they control the pressure in the chambers. However, their function does not end there. The manufacturer also endowed them with the ability to measure temperature.

The sensors are integrated into a single tire pressure monitoring system. The main computing functions are assigned to the ECU control unit. It is installed in the car with the rest of the on-board computer system. Given the factory setting of the system, it displays all the basic information on the display of the SuperVision control panel. Depending on the cost of the car, other options for transmitting data to the driver are possible - via a light bulb or a smartphone.

By installing a tire pressure monitoring system on your own, an indicator is placed in the cabin. It displays all the information from the four wheels. Sensors or TPMS transmit information at a frequency of 433.92 MHz via radio waves. Autonomous operation means discharging the power system - you will have to buy new sensors.

The pressure control system prevents the following situations:

tire puncture;
disassembly of the wheel while driving;
tire overheating;
air release through the nipple;
critical loads.

Installation and principle of operation of pressure sensors

The sensors themselves in the Hyundai Creta are not attached to the disk in any way. They are connected to a special small tripod, which in turn is already fixed on the disk. On the other hand, the cap is screwed on. This is the whole mounting system applied on wheels. It is not necessary to memorize the numbering of each device. Hyundai has adapted the computer to recognize the location of the sensor, so they can be placed side by side.

Hyundai Creta tire pressure sensors work on the principle of indirect measurement. It is installed only on the wheel disk, which means that it does not have direct access to the air in the chamber. Therefore, the manufacturer uses tire circumference measurement. On a flat tire, one revolution is much faster than in the normal position. Constantly referring to the starting point, the degree of inflation of the wheel and, accordingly, the pressure are set. Additionally, it uses information from the ABS system.

The advantages of this method of measurement can be considered the ease of installation of sensors. Also, the price is much lower than analogues attached to the nipple. However, the driver should remember about the 30% probability of error. There is no way to avoid such mistakes. Another feature is the work only in motion. When the car is parked, pressure cannot be measured through the TPMS.

When a pressure drop is detected for the driver, SuperVision will display:

warning light about the descent of the wheel;
an indicator in the form of a triangle about the malfunctions that have occurred;
visual picture indicating a flat tire.

We are trying to turn off the pressure control system with our own hands

It’s worth disappointing motorists right away - you can’t turn off the pressure control system on the Hyundai Creta on your own. It is integrated into the on-board computer with all the ensuing consequences. Just removing the sensors from the wheels does not solve anything. After a few kilometers, the ECU control unit, without receiving information from the TPMS, will show an error. All gauges will light up and a warning will appear on the SuperVision.

There are two options for shutting down the system:

flashing the on-board computer;
installation of an analog system.

In both options, you can not do without the help of a specialist. Only with certain equipment can you deceive the system. You cannot completely disable the measurement function in Hyundai Creta, but you can force it to receive false information.

By flashing the system, the car loses the ability to install sensors in the future. To return the pressure sensors to working condition, a repeated change of priorities in the computer will be required, which indicates additional financial costs.

Problems with pressure sensors

Despite the difficulty of measuring pressure indirectly, the sensors themselves are of robust design. They almost always work out the warranty period. There are several reasons for their failure:

at the tire fitting damaged during the overboarding;
the tripod that holds the sensor is broken;
the battery discharged;
manufacturing defects.

Another mistake can be attributed to the change of summer tires to winter. Sometimes car owners forget about the lack of sensors on new wheels. Given the operation of the tire pressure system only when driving, the absence of devices will be detected only after a few kilometers. Be sure to monitor the movement of your sensors when changing the "shoes" of the car. This includes the spare wheel. Hyundai Creta does not supply the presence of measuring systems in the basic configuration - the spare tire must be temporary, not permanent.

TPMS are not repairable or rechargeable. At the slightest deviation in their work, you should immediately think about a new purchase. This is the biggest drawback of all tire pressure systems. The ECU control unit itself is reprogrammed as a repair. If there are technical breakdowns, then again you have to go to the store.

You will not be able to fix problems with sensors in the Hyundai Crete on your own. They are located inside the wheel, which involves overboarding. Next, you will need a tool to remove the measuring device from the tripod. And you should forget about reprogramming at all. It is better to immediately contact the service station to fix problems by specialists. They will also be able to recommend the purchase of new reliable sensors in case the original ones come out - the market is always full of fakes, beware of them!

Introduction

INTRODUCTION

The world premiere of the Hyundai ix25 compact crossover took place in the spring of 2014 at the Beijing Motor Show. Under the name Creta (in honor of the Greek island of Crete), the car was introduced a year later in India.

Based on the fact that the model was originally conceived as global, the designers created a rather original, but at the same time universal look that will appeal to motorists from different countries and continents. The car is designed in the proprietary concept of "liquid sculpture 2.0", which combines smooth and flexible lines with dynamism and even some aggressiveness. In general, Hyundai Creta turned out to be sporty, dynamic, powerful, but at the same time refined and light.

Functional, but at the same time quite elegant interior is consistent with the appearance of the car. The build quality, finishing materials and ergonomics are at the highest level. Moreover, this applies to the performance of both leather and conventional fabric lining. As befits a crossover, even a compact one, its interior is spacious: even in the rear seats there is enough space for passengers of any size.

Trunk volume Hyundai Creta in normal condition is 431 liters. If necessary, you can fold the backs of the rear seats, increasing the usable space to 1280 liters. Like most modern cars, the rear seatbacks can be folded individually in a 60:40 ratio.

The line of power units installed on the Hyundai Creta is represented by two in-line four-cylinder gasoline engines with working volumes of 1.6 liters and 2.0 liters with a capacity of 123 hp, respectively. With. and 149 l. With. They don’t even plan to offer diesel units on the domestic market: according to marketers, the demand for such a version will be minimal.

A manual transmission is only paired with the base 1.6-liter engine. A six-speed "automatic" is available in combination with all powertrains, and an all-wheel drive transmission with a multi-plate clutch is offered only for the "top" two-liter engines.

The front suspension of all versions is represented by the now traditional Mc-Ferson struts with anti-roll bar. All-wheel drive cars are equipped with a rear multi-link suspension with a stabilizer, and a conventional torsion beam is installed on front-wheel drive cars. The brakes of all wheels are disc, and on the front wheels they are also ventilated. The steering, depending on the type of power unit, is equipped with a hydraulic or electric booster.

The Creta body deserves special attention. Its load-bearing structure, called HIVE, provides maximum rigidity in this vehicle class, as well as increased structural strength and safety in the event of an accident. It is also stated that the roof of the crossover has an increased carrying capacity due to the increased number of cross members made of high-strength steels.

Hyundai Creta is offered in three trim levels: Start, Active and Comfort. The basic version has two airbags, ABS, power steering, dynamic stabilization system, front seat height adjustment, audio system with radio and USB and Aux connectors, Bluetooth communication, power windows and a tire pressure monitoring system. These cars are equipped with 16-inch stamped wheels, mirrors are manually adjustable here, and the steering column can only be adjusted in height.

The “medium” Active equipment, in addition to the above, includes air conditioning, electric drive and heated exterior mirrors, heated front seats and keys with central lock control buttons. For an additional fee, a Winter package with heated rear seats and steering wheel is available.

In the maximum equipment, the Creta has six airbags, automatic climate control, reach steering, rear parking sensors, roof racks and alloy wheels, and an electric one is installed instead of a hydraulic power steering. As an additional option, the Advanced package is offered with heated rear seats, steering wheel, windshield and washer jets, a multimedia system with a CD receiver and a touch screen, a rear-view camera and a Supervision instrument cluster.

Due to the successful combination of design, reliability, good equipment and affordable price, Hyundai Creta enjoys well-deserved popularity in the automotive market.

Hyundai Creta emergency response since 2015 Tire pressure monitoring system

6. Tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS)

Tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS), type A

In cold weather, each tire pressure should be checked monthly, including the spare wheel (if equipped), and, if necessary, the tire pressure should be adjusted to the manufacturer's recommended pressure level (indicated on the vehicle and tire pressure rating plates; if the vehicle is equipped with tires with other than the size indicated on the labels, it is necessary to determine the appropriate pressure level for them.)

As an additional safety feature, the vehicle may be equipped with a tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) that provides an indication of a significant reduction in pressure in one or more tires using a low tire pressure warning light. If the low tire pressure warning light comes on, you should stop the vehicle as soon as possible, check the condition of the tires and bring them to the correct pressure level. Continued driving with low tire pressure can cause overheating and mechanical failure of the tires. Operating tires at low pressures will increase fuel consumption, shorten tire life, and may affect vehicle handling and stopping distance.

Please note that the use of TPMS does not eliminate the need for proper tire maintenance or maintenance of proper tire pressure, even if the reduction in pressure level is not sufficient to trigger the low TPMS tire pressure warning light.

The vehicle is also equipped with a TPMS malfunction indicator to monitor its correct operation. The TPMS malfunction indicator is integrated with the low tire pressure indicator. When the system detects a problem, the indicator flashes for approximately one minute, then stays on. This sequence will continue after subsequent vehicle starts, as long as the fault exists. When the fault indicator light is on, the system may not be able to detect or signal low tire pressure as it should. A malfunctioning TPMS system can be caused by a variety of reasons, including installing or changing tires or wheels. Always check the TPMS malfunction indicator light after changing or swapping one or more tires/wheels to make sure the TPMS is working.

Note
If the TPMS indicator does not come on within three seconds after turning the ignition key to the "ON" position or while the engine is running, or comes on after flashing for about one minute, we recommend contacting an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.

Low tire pressure indicator

When the tire pressure monitoring system warning light is on, it means that one or more tires are inflated significantly below the recommended pressure.

If any of the indicator lights come on, slow down immediately, avoiding sharp turns and taking into account that the braking distance may be increased. You should stop and check the tires as soon as possible.

Inflate the tires to the correct pressure as indicated on the vehicle information plate or tire pressure decal located on the driver's side B-pillar outer panel.

If it is not possible to reach a service station or the tire pressure is not maintained at the correct level after inflation, replace the flat tire with a spare.

The low tire pressure indicator may then flash for approximately one minute and then remain on continuously after the next engine start and for approximately 20 minutes of continuous driving until the low pressure tire is repaired and put back on. automobile.

ATTENTION
In cold weather, the low tire pressure warning light may come on if the tire is at the recommended pressure for warm weather. This does not indicate a malfunction of the TPMS system, since a decrease in temperature leads to a proportional decrease in tire pressure.
When driving from an area with low temperatures to an area with high temperatures and vice versa, or if the outside temperature is much higher or lower, check the tire pressure and bring it to the recommended level.
Tire pressures that are too low can result in loss of vehicle control and increased stopping distance. Continued driving with low tire pressure can cause overheating and mechanical failure of the tires.

In the event of a tire pressure monitoring system malfunction, the low pressure indicator will flash for one minute and then turn on continuously. If the system is able to correctly warn of insufficient pressure at the same time as a system failure, the TPMS fault indicator will turn on.

ATTENTION
- The TPMS malfunction indicator may also come on when driving near power cables or radio transmitters, such as near an automobile inspection post, government agencies, broadcasting stations, military installations, airports, transmitting stations, etc. The resulting interference may cause the system to malfunction tire pressure monitoring (TPMS).
- The TPMS malfunction indicator may be lit when snow chains or some separately purchased devices (laptops, mobile charger, remote starter, sat-nav, etc.) are used in the vehicle. This may interfere with the proper functioning of the tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS).

Replacing a tire equipped with a TPMS system

Each wheel is equipped with a tire pressure sensor installed in the tire behind the valve stem. TPMS compatible wheels must be used. It is recommended that tires be serviced by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.

Even if a flat tire is replaced, the replacement low tire pressure indicator will flash or stay on until the flat tire is repaired and refitted to the vehicle.

After changing a flat tire, the spare low pressure indicator may flash or come on after a few minutes because the TPMS sensor installed on the spare tire is not running.

After inflating a flat tire to the proper pressure and installing it on the vehicle, it is recommended that you contact an authorized HYUNDAI dealer to start the TPMS sensor installed on the spare tire. The TPMS malfunction indicator and the low tire pressure indicator will turn off a few minutes after driving.

If a few minutes after the start of the movement, the indicator does not turn off, it is recommended to contact an authorized HYUNDAI dealer to check the system.

ATTENTION
When replacing the original tire with a spare tire, the TPMS sensor on the spare wheel must be run.
Disabling the TPMS sensor on the original wheel is recommended to be done by a HYUNDAI dealer. If the TPMS sensor on the original tire located in the spare wheel holder remains active, the tire pressure monitoring system may not function properly.
We recommend having the system serviced by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.

You may not be able to identify a low pressure tire just by looking at it.

Always use a working tire pressure gauge. Please note that the pressure in a hot tire (after driving) will be higher than in a cold one.

Note
The expression "cold tire" means that the vehicle has been idle for three hours or traveled less than 1.5 km in a three-hour period. Let the tire cool down before measuring the pressure. Always make sure that the tire is cold before inflating to the recommended pressure.ATTENTION
If your vehicle is equipped with a tire pressure monitoring system, we recommend using a HYUNDAI approved tire sealant. Liquid sealant can damage the tire pressure sensor.

Improper use, modification, or disabling of tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) components may affect the system's ability to alert the driver to low tire pressure or a malfunction of the TPMS system. Improper use, modification, or disabling of tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) components may void your vehicle's warranty.

- If commercially available wheels are used, HYUNDAI dealer-approved TPMS sensors must be used.
If the vehicle is not equipped with a TPMS sensor or the TPMS system is not working properly, the vehicle may not pass the required technical inspection.

Tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS), type B

Tire pressure gauge (if equipped)

The tire pressure can be checked in the information mode on the instrument cluster.

The tire pressure will be displayed a few minutes after the engine is started for the first time.

If the pressure is not displayed after the car is stopped, the message “Drive to display” is displayed, check the tire pressure after driving.

Tire pressures shown may differ from those measured with a tire pressure gauge.

Tire pressure units can be changed in the user settings on the instrument cluster.

Tire pressure monitoring system

ATTENTION
Over- or under-inflation can shorten tire life, adversely affect vehicle handling, and lead to sudden tire failure, which can lead to loss of control and an accident.

Note
If the vehicle is fitted with tires that have a different size from the size indicated on the plates, it is necessary to determine the appropriate pressure level for them.

Under-inflated tires will increase fuel consumption, shorten tire life, and may affect vehicle handling and stopping distance.

The vehicle is also equipped with a TPMS malfunction indicator to check if the system is working properly. The TPMS malfunction indicator is integrated with the low tire pressure indicator. When the system detects a problem, the indicator flashes for approximately one minute, then stays on. This sequence will continue after subsequent vehicle starts, as long as the fault exists.

When the fault indicator light is on, the system may not be able to detect or signal low tire pressure as it should. A malfunctioning TPMS system can be caused by a variety of reasons, including fitting or changing tires/wheels.

Always check the TPMS malfunction indicator light after changing or swapping one or more tires/wheels to make sure the TPMS is working.

Note
Contact your nearest authorized HYUNDAI dealer and have the system checked if one of the following situations occurs.
1. The low tire pressure/malfunction TPMS indicator does not come on within three seconds after the ignition switch is turned to the "ON" position or the engine is started.
2. The TPMS malfunction indicator stays on after flashing for approximately one minute.
3. Low tire position indicator stays on.

Low tire position indicator and tire pressure indicator

When the tire pressure monitoring system warning lights are on, it means that one or more tires are inflated significantly below the recommended pressure. The low pressure wheel position indicator device indicates which tire is under-inflated by turning on the corresponding position lamp.

Inflate them to the correct pressure as indicated on the vehicle information plate or the tire pressure information decal located on the outer panel of the B-pillar on the driver's side.

The low tire pressure indicator will be on and the TPMS malfunction indicator may flash for one minute and then stay on (at vehicle speed over 25 km/h for approximately 20 minutes) until the tire is low. pressure will not be repaired and installed back on the vehicle.

Note
The spare wheel is not equipped with a tire pressure sensor.

TPMS system malfunction indicator (tire pressure monitoring system)

In the event of a tire pressure monitoring system malfunction, the low pressure indicator will flash for one minute and then turn on continuously.

In this case, you should contact an authorized HYUNDAI dealer as soon as possible to check the system.

Note
In the event of a malfunction in the TPMS system, the low pressure indicator will not be displayed even if the vehicle's tire pressure is insufficient.
The TPMS malfunction indicator may also come on after flashing for approximately one minute when driving near power cables or radio transmitters, such as near a motor vehicle inspection post, government agencies, broadcasting stations, military installations, airports, transmitting stations, etc.
In addition, the TPMS malfunction indicator may illuminate when snow chains or electronic devices (computers, chargers, remote starters, sat-nav, etc.) are used. This may interfere with the normal operation of the TPMS.

If a tire is flat, "Low Tire Pressure" will light up. Have a flat tire repaired by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer as soon as possible, or replace the wheel.

ATTENTION
Do not use puncture repair products not approved by your HYUNDAI dealer to repair and/or inflate a low pressure tire. Tire sealant not approved by your HYUNDAI dealer may damage the tire pressure sensor.

The spare wheel (if equipped) is not equipped with a pressure sensor. When replacing a low pressure (flat) tire with a spare, the low tire pressure indicator device will remain on.

The TPMS malfunction indicator also stays on after flashing for approximately one minute if the vehicle is driven at approximately 25 km/h for approximately 20 minutes.

After inflating an original tire equipped with a pressure monitoring sensor to the recommended pressure and installing it on the vehicle, the low tire pressure indicator and the TPMS malfunction indicator will turn off a few minutes after driving.

If the indicators do not turn off after a few minutes, contact an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.

Each wheel is equipped with an air pressure sensor installed in the tire behind the valve stem (except for the spare wheel). TPMS compatible wheels must be used. We recommend that you always have your tires serviced by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.

Always use a working pressure gauge for measurement. Please note that the pressure in a hot tire (after driving) will be higher than in a cold one.

Note
The term "cold tire" means that the vehicle has been idle for three hours or traveled less than 1 mile (1.6 km) in a three hour period. Let the tire cool down before measuring the pressure. Always make sure that the tire is cold before inflating to the recommended pressure.ATTENTION
- The TPMS is not designed to alert you to sudden tire damage caused by external factors such as sharp objects on the road.
- If the vehicle's behavior on the road becomes unstable, immediately take your foot off the gas pedal, depress the brake pedal smoothly and with little force, and slowly bring the vehicle to a safe position on the road.
- Improper use, modification, or disabling of tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) components may affect the system's ability to notify the driver of a low tire pressure or malfunction of the TPMS system. Improper use, modification, or disabling of tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) components may void your vehicle's warranty.
- Do not modify the vehicle as this may affect the functionality of the TPMS system.
- Wheels available on the market are not equipped with TPMS sensors. To ensure safety, it is recommended to use replacement parts from an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
- If commercially available wheels are used, HYUNDAI dealer-approved TPMS sensors must be used. If the vehicle is not equipped with a TPMS sensor or the TPMS system is not working properly, the vehicle may not pass the required technical inspection.

The normal tire pressure for the Hyundai Crete is 2.3 + 0.7 kg / cm2. This applies to 16" and 17" elements. Many car owners underestimate the importance of this aspect, although the overall ride comfort depends on it. Hyundai Creta tire pressure sensors are responsible for measuring and displaying this indicator on the dashboard screen.

The Korean crossover, regardless of the type of configuration, is equipped with sensors. There is no need to believe the prevailing stereotypes, in fact, their principle of operation is very simple: a radio element is installed in each wheel, transmitting information to a receiver located on the dashboard. In the initial Greta configurations, a light bulb is responsible for displaying the pressure status - its ignition indicates a breakdown of the wheel, or a failure of the measuring components.

Experts are confident that a standard set of equipment is sufficient for normal monitoring of this indicator. But the Korean developers decided not to stop there, equipping the top version of the Hyundai Greta with the SV dashboard. With its help, the driver can monitor the status of the indicators of each wheel in real time.

Hyundai Creta sensors are very delicate, so problems often arise with them. It is not recommended to replace the tires of a Korean crossover on your own - it is better to entrust the work to professionals who have the skills to install pressure sensors. If you disable the measuring components or install tires without them, then the light on the instrument panel will constantly display a malfunction.

There are two ways to solve this problem: flashing the system (not recommended, since you will have to repeat the procedure again when installing the measuring elements) and installing new Chinese-made components (they are distinguished by low price and good quality).

Conclusion

Hyundai Greta tire sensors are important components of the Korean crossover that allow you to monitor tire pressure indicators. When a malfunction occurs, they transmit a signal to the instrument panel, and you see the bulb light up. In more expensive trim levels, the signal is transmitted to the SuperVision touch display. You can buy measuring elements at the dealership of the Korean company. We do not recommend purchasing products from dubious manufacturers.
