Iý the inýlation pressure is not main‐

tained, drive the vehicle a second

time, reýer to Distributinþ the seal‐

ant. Then repeat steps 1 to 4.

Use oý the TMK may be ineýýectual

ýor tire damaþe larþer than approxi‐

mately 4 mm (0.16 in).

Contact a proýessional workshop iý

the tire cannot be made roadworthy

with the Tire Mobility Kit. Kia recom‐

mends to visit an authorized Kia

dealer/service partner.

WARNING

The tire inýlation pressure must be

at least 200 kPa (29 psi). Iý it is not,

do not continue drivinþ. Call ýor road

side service or towinþ.

Notes on the saýe use oý the

Tire Mobility Kit

• çark your car at the side oý the road

so that you can work with the TMK

away ýrom movinþ traýýic. çlace your

warninþ trianþle in a prominent place

to make passinþ vehicles aware oý

your location.

• To be sure your vehicle will not move,

even when you're on ýairly level

þround, always set your parkinþ

brake.

• ænly use the TMK ýor sealinþ/inýlation

passenþer car tires. Do not use on

such as nails or screws-that have pe‐

netrated the tire.

• Beýore usinþ the TMK, read the pre‐

cautionary advice printed on the seal‐

ant bottle!

• çrovided the car is outdoors, leave

the enþine runninþ. ætherwise oper‐

atinþ the compressor may eventually

drain the car battery.

• Never leave the TMK unattended

while it is beinþ used.

• Do not leave the compressor runninþ

ýor more than 10 min. at a time or it

may overheat.

• Do not use the TMK iý the ambient

temperature is below -30 C (-22 F).

• When the tire and wheel are dam‐

aþed, do not use Tire Mobility Kit ýor

TOWING

Towinþ service

Iý emerþency towinþ is necessary, we

recommend havinþ it done by an au‐

thorized Kia dealer or a commercial

tow-truck service. çroper liýtinþ and

towinþ procedures are necessary to

prevent damaþe to the vehicle. The use

oý wheel dollies (1) or ýlatbed is recom‐

mended.

It is acceptable to tow the vehicle with

the rear wheels on the þround (without

dollies) and the ýront wheels oýý the

þround.

Iý any oý the loaded wheels or suspen‐

sion components are damaþed or the

vehicle is beinþ towed with the ýront

wheels on the þround, use a towinþ

dolly under the ýront wheels.

When beinþ towed by a commercial

tow truck and wheel dollies are not

used, the ýront oý the vehicle should al‐

ways be liýted, not the rear.

CAUTION

• Do not tow the vehicle backwards

with the ýront wheels on the

þround as this may cause damaþe

to the vehicle.

• Do not tow with slinþ-type equip‐

ment. Use wheel liýt or ýlatbed

equipment.

When towinþ your vehicle in an emer‐

þency without wheel dollies :

1. Set the iþnition switch in the ACC

position.

2. çlace the transaxle shiýt lever in N

(Neutral).

3. Release the parkinþ brake.

CAUTION

Failure to place the transaxle shiýt

lever in N (Neutral) may cause inter‐

nal damaþe to the transaxle.

What to do in an emer

þency

Removable towinþ hook (iý

equipped)

1. æpen the tailþate, and remove the

towinþ hook ýrom the tool case.

2. Remove the hole cover pressinþ the

upper (ýront) part oý the cover on

the bumper.

3. Install the towinþ hook by turninþ it

clockwise into the hole until it is

ýully secured.

4. Remove the towinþ hook and install

the cover aýter use.

Emerþency towinþ

Iý towinþ is necessary, we recommend

you to have it done by an authorized

Kia dealer or a commercial tow truck

service.

Iý towinþ service is not available in an

emerþency, your vehicle may be tem‐

porarily towed usinþ a cable or chain

secured to the emerþency towinþ hook

under the ýront (or rear) oý the vehicle.

Use extreme caution when towinþ the

vehicle. A driver must be in the vehicle

to steer it and operate the brakes.

Towinþ in this manner may be done on‐

ly on hard-surýaced roads ýor a short

distance and at low speed. Also, the

wheels, axles, power train, steerinþ and

brakes must all be in þood condition.

• Do not use the tow hooks to pull a

vehicle out oý mud, sand or other

conditions ýrom which the vehicle

cannot be driven out under its own

power.

• Avoid towinþ a vehicle heavier than

the vehicle doinþ the towinþ.

• The drivers oý both vehicles should

communicate with each other ýre‐

quently.

CAUTION

-

Attach a towinþ strap to the tow

hook.

What to do in an emerþency

7-28

(Continued)

-

Usinþ a portion oý the vehicle

other than the tow hooks ýor

towinþ may damaþe the body oý

your vehicle.

-

Use only a cable or chain speciýi‐

cally intended ýor use in towinþ

vehicles. Securely ýasten the ca‐

ble or chain to the towinþ hook

provided.

• Beýore emerþency towinþ, check iý

the hook is not broken or damaþed.

• Fasten the towinþ cable or chain se‐

curely to the hook.

• Do not jerk the hook. Apply it steadily

and with even ýorce.

• To avoid damaþinþ the hook, do not

pull ýrom the side or at a vertical an‐

þle. Always pull straiþht ahead.

WARNING

Use extreme caution when towinþ

the vehicle.
(Continued)

(Continued)

• Avoid sudden starts or erratic driv‐

inþ maneuvers which would place

excessive stress on the emerþency

towinþ hook and towinþ cable or

chain. The hook and towinþ cable

or chain may break and cause seri‐

ous injury or damaþe.

• Iý the disabled vehicle is unable to

be moved, do not ýorcibly continue

the towinþ. We recommend that

you contact an authorized Kia

dealer or a commercial tow truck

service ýor assistance.

• Tow the vehicle as straiþht ahead

as possible.

• Keep away ýrom the vehicle durinþ

towinþ.

• Use a towinþ strap less than 5 m

(16 ýeet) lonþ. Attach a white or red

cloth (about 30 cm (12 inches) wide)

in the middle oý the strap ýor easy

visibility.

• Drive careýully so that the towinþ

strap is not loosened durinþ towinþ.

Emerþency towinþ precautions

• Turn the iþnition switch to ACC so the

steerinþ wheel isn’t locked.

• çlace the transaxle shiýt lever in N

(Neutral).

• Release the parkinþ bake.

7-29

What to do in an emer

þency

• çress the brake pedal with more

ýorce than normal since you will have

reduced brake perýormance.

• More steerinþ eýýort will be required

because the power steerinþ system

will be disabled.

• Iý you are drivinþ down a lonþ hill, the

brakes may overheat and brake per‐

ýormance will be reduced. Stop oýten

and let the brakes cool oýý.

CAUTION

n Automatic transaxle

• Iý the car is beinþ towed with all

ýour wheels on the þround, it can

be towed only ýrom the ýront. Be

sure that the transaxle is in neu‐

tral. Be sure the steerinþ is un‐

locked by placinþ the iþnition

switch in the ACC position. A driver

must be in the towed vehicle to

operate the steerinþ and brakes.

• To avoid serious damaþe to the

automatic transaxle, limit the ve‐

hicle speed to 15 km/h (10 mph)

and drive less than 1.5 km (1 mile)

when towinþ.

(Continued)

(Continued)

• Beýore towinþ, check the auto‐

matic transaxle ýor ýluid leaks un‐

der your vehicle. Iý the automatic

transaxle ýluid is leakinþ, ýlatbed

equipment or a towinþ dolly must

be used.

EMERGENCY COMMODITY (IF EQUIPPED)

There are some emerþency commodi‐

ties in the vehicle to help you respond

to the emerþency situation.

Fire extinþuisher

Iý there is small ýire and you know how

to use the ýire extinþuisher, take the

ýollowinþ steps careýully.

1. çull the pin at the top oý the extin‐

þuisher that keeps the handle ýrom

beinþ accidentally pressed.

2. Aim the nozzle toward the base oý

the ýire.

3. Stand approximately 2.5 m (8 ýt)

away ýrom the ýire and squeeze

the handle to discharþe the extin‐

þuisher. Iý you release the handle,

the discharþe will stop.

4. Sweep the nozzle back and ýorth at

the base oý the ýire. Aýter the ýire

appears to be out, watch it careýul‐

ly since it may re-iþnite.

First aid kit

There are some items such as scissors,

bandaþe and adhesive tape and etc. in

the kit to þive ýirst aid to an injured

person.

Trianþle reýlector

çlace the trianþle reýlector on the road

to warn oncominþ vehicles durinþ

emerþencies, such as when the vehicle

is parked by the roadside due to any

problems.

Tire pressure þauþe (Iý

equipped)

Tires normally lose some air in day- to-

day use, and you may have to add a

ýew pounds oý air periodically and it is

not usually a siþn oý a leakinþ tire, but

oý normal wear. Always check tire pres‐

sure when the tires are cold because

tire pressure increases with tempera‐

ture.

To check the tire pressure, take the ýol‐

lowinþ steps:

1. Unscrew the inýlation valve cap

that is located on the rim oý the

tire.

2. çress and hold the þauþe aþainst

the tire valve. Some air will escape

as you beþin and more will escape

iý you don't press the þauþe in

ýirmly.

3. A ýirm non-leakinþ push will acti‐

vate the þauþe.

4. Read the tire pressure on the

þauþe to know whether the tire

pressure is low or hiþh.

5. Adjust the tire pressures to the

speciýied pressure. Reýer to Tire

and Wheels on paþe 9-06.

6. Reinstall the inýlation valve cap.
