DRIVING TIPS
5-10TIRE CHAINSTire Chain SelectionRegulations regarding the use of tire
chains vary according to location or type
of road, so always check them before
installing chains.
Use only SAE Class “S” tire chains.
Chains must be the proper size for the
vehicle, as recommended by the chain
manufacturer.CHAIN INSTALLATIONWhen installing chains on your tires,
carefully follow the instructions of the
chain manufacturer.
The chain bands will scratch the wheel
covers. Remove the covers before
installing the chains.Install the chains on the front tires as
tightly as possible. The use of chains on
the rear tires is not recommended.
Retighten the chains after driving 0.5-1.0
km (1/4-1/2 mile).
Driving in Flooded AreasAvoid driving through flooded areas
unless you are sure the water is no higher
than the bottom of the wheel rims. Drive
through any water slowly. Allow
adequate stopping distance because
brake performance may be affected.
After driving through water, dry the
brakes by gently applying them several
times while the vehicle is moving slowly.
WARNING - Tire Chains
 The use of chains may
adversely affect vehicle
handling.
 Do not exceed 30 mph (50 km/
h) or the chain manufacturer’s
recommended speed limit,
whichever is lower.
 Drive carefully and avoid
bumps, holes, sharp turns
and other road hazards,
which may cause the vehicle
to bounce.
 Avoid sharp turns or locked
wheel braking.
 Do not attempt to use a tire
chain on the temporary spare
tire because it may impair
vehicle handling and result in
damage to the vehicle and the
tire.

IMPORTANT-USE OF
COMPACT SPARE TIREYour vehicle is equipped with a compact
spare tire.
This compact spare tire takes up less
space than a regular-size tire. This tire is
smaller than a conventional tire and is
designed for temporary use only.
The compact spare should be inflated to
420kPa ( 60 psi).When using a compact spare tire,
observe the following precautions:
 Under no circumstances should you
exceed 80 km/h (50 mph); a higher
speed could damage the tire.
 Ensure that you drive slowly enough
for the road conditions to avoid all
hazards. Any road hazard, such as a
pothole or debris, could seriously
damage the compact spare.
 Any continuous road use of this tire
could result in tire failure, loss of
vehicle control, and possible personal
injury.
 Do not exceed the vehicle’s
maximum load rating or the load-
carrying capacity shown on the
sidewall of the compact spare tire.
 Avoid driving over obstacles. The
compact spare tire diameter is
smaller than the diameter of a
conventional tire and reduces the
ground clearance approximately 25
mm (1in.), which could result in
damage to the vehicle.
IN CASE OF EMERGENCY
6-20
CAUTION
 You should drive carefully when
the compact spare is in use. The
compact spare should be
replaced by the proper
conventional tire and rim at the
first opportunity.
 The operation of this vehicle is
not recommended with more
than one compact spare tire in
use at the same time.
CAUTION
This spare tire should be used only
for VERY short distances.
Compact spares should NEVER be
used for long drives or extended
distances.✻
NOTICE
Check the inflation pressure after
installing the spare tire. Adjust to
the specified pressure, as necessary.

6-21  Do not take this vehicle through an
automatic car wash with the compact
spare tire installed.
 Do not use tire chains on this tire.
Because of the smaller size, a tire
chain will not fit properly. This could
damage the vehicle and result in loss
of the chain.
 This tire should not be installed on
the front axle if the vehicle must be
driven in snow or on ice.
 Do not use the compact spare tire on
any other vehicle because this tire
has been designed especially for your
vehicle.
 The compact spare’s tread life is
shorter than a regular tire.
Inspect your compact spare tire
regularly and replace worn compact
spare tires with the same size and
design, mounted on the same wheel.

WARNING - Changing
Tires
Never attempt vehicle repairs
or a tire change in the traffic
lanes of a public road or
highway. Always move the
vehicle completely off the
road and onto the shoulder
before trying to change a tire.
If you cannot find a firm, level
place off the road, call a
towing service company for
assistance.
Be sure to use the correct
front or rear jacking
positions on the vehicle;
never use the bumpers or
any other part of the vehicle
for jack support.
Never allow any portion of
your body to get beneath the
vehicle while using the jack.
Do not start or run the engine
while the vehicle is
supported by the jack.

10. Remove the lug nuts by turning them
counterclockwise, then remove the
wheel.
11. Mount the spare tire into position and
tighten the nuts by hand. Install the
lug nuts with the beveled edge
inward.
12. Turn the jack handle counterclockwise
and lower the vehicle until it touches
the ground.
Tighten the lug nuts firmly in an “X”
pattern.Once the lug nuts have been tightened,
lower the vehicle fully to the ground and
continue to tighten the lug nuts until they
are completely secured.
If you are unsure of the tightness of the
wheel lug nuts, have them checked at the
nearest service station. The specified
tightening torque is 76 ft. lb (103 N·m).

CAUTION
Your vehicle has metric threads on
the wheel studs and nuts. During
wheel removal, make certain that
the same nuts removed are
reinstalled - or, if replaced, that
nuts with metric threads and the
same configuration are used.
Installation of a non-metric thread
nut on a metric stud or vice-versa
will not secure the wheel to the hub
properly and will damage the stud
so that it must be replaced. Note
that most U.S. lug nuts do not have
metric threads. Be sure to use
extreme care in checking for thread
style before installing aftermarket
lug nuts or wheels. If in doubt,
consult an Authorized Kia Dealer.
Damaged studs may result in wheel
loss and personal injury.

6-25 To prevent the jack, jack handle, wheel
lug nut, wrench and spare tire from
rattling while the vehicle is in motion,
store them properly.
✻
NOTICE
Check the inflation pressures as
soon as possible after installing the
spare tire. Adjust it to the specified
pressure, if necessary.
Standard Tire : 210 kPa(30 psi)
Compact Spare Tire : 420 kPa(60
psi)
WARNING - Wheel Studs
If the studs are damaged, they
may lose their ability to retain
the wheel. This could lead to
the loss of the wheel and a
collision.
