Wheel Replacement
When replacing the metal wheels for any reason, make
sure the new wheels are equivalent to the original
factory units in diameter, rim width and offset.
✻ ✻
NOTICE
When replacing tires, never mix radial, bias-
belted, and bias-type tires. All four tires
should be of the same size, design and
construction. Use only the tire sizes listed on
the Tire Label attached to the passenger’s
door. Make sure that all tires and wheels are
the same size and have the same load-
carrying capacity. Use only tire and wheel
combinations recommended on the Tire
Label or by an Authorized Kia Dealer.
Failure to follow these precautions can
adversely affect the safety and handling of
your vehicle.
The use of any other tire size or type may
seriously affect ride, handling, ground
clearance, tire clearance, and speedometer
calibration.

Driving on worn-out tires is very hazardous
and will reduce braking effectiveness,
steering accuracy, and traction.
It is best to replace all four tires on your
vehicle at the same time. If that is not
possible, then replace the two front or two
rear tires as a pair. Replacing just one tire
can seriously affect vehicle handling.

Lap/Shoulder Belt Webbing Cleaning
Clean the belt webbing with any mild soap solution
recommended for cleaning upholstery or carpet. Follow
the instructions provided with the soap. Do not bleach
or re-dye the webbing because this may weaken it.
Interior Window Glass Cleaning
If the interior glass surfaces of the vehicle become
fogged (that is, covered with an oily, greasy or waxy
film), they should be cleaned with glass cleaner.
Follow the directions on the glass cleaner container.
CAUTION
Using anything but recommended cleaners and
procedures may affect the fabric’s appearance
and fire-resistant properties.✻ ✻
NOTICE
Do not scrape or scratch the inside of the rear
window. This could damage the rear window
defroster grid.
