In case of an emergency
3. Install the towing hook by turning itclockwise into the hole until it is fully
secured (2).
4. Remove the towing hook and install the cover after use.
Towing with a vehicle other than
a tow truck If towing is necessary, we recommend
you to have it done by an authorized Kia
dealer or a commercial tow truck service. If towing service is not available in an
emergency, your vehicle may be tem-
porarily towed using a cable or chain
secured to the emergency towing hook
under the front or rear of the vehicle. Use
extreme caution when towing the vehicle.
A driver must be in the vehicle to steer it
and operate the brakes.
Towing in this manner may be done only
on hard-surfaced roads for a short dis-
tance and at low speeds. Also, the
wheels, axles, power train, steering and
brakes must all be in good condition.
 Do not use the tow hooks to pull a
vehicle out of mud, sand or other con-
ditions from which the vehicle cannot
be driven out under its own power.
 Avoid towing a vehicle heavier than the vehicle doing the towing.
 The drivers of both vehicles should com- municate with each other frequently.
✽ ✽ NOTICE• Attach a towing strap to the tow hook.
• Using a portion of the vehicle other
than the tow hooks for towing may
damage the body of your vehicle.
• Use only a cable or chain specifically intended for use in towing vehicles.
Securely fasten the cable or chain to
the towing hook provided.

6 Before emergency towing, check that
the hook is not broken or damaged.
 Fasten the towing cable or chain securely to the hook.
 Do not jerk the hook. Apply steady and even force.
 To avoid damaging the hook, do not pull from the side or at a vertical angle.
Always pull straight ahead.
 Use a towing strap less than 5m (16feet) long. Attach a white or red cloth
(about 30cm (12 inches) wide) in the
middle of the strap for easy visibility.
 Drive carefully so that the towing strap is not loosened during towing.
When your vehicle is being towed
by another vehicle other than a tow
truck (in case of an emergency) Turn the ignition switch to ACC so thesteering wheel isn’t locked.
 Place the transaxle shift lever in N (Neutral).
 Release the parking bake.
 Vehicles equipped with automatic transaxles should not exceed 45 km/h
(28 mph) and should not be towed
more than 80 km (50 miles).
 Vehicles equipped with manual transaxle should not be towed in
excess of 88 km/h (55 mph) and
should not be towed more than 645 km
(400 miles).
 Press the brake pedal with more force than normal since you will have
reduced brake performance.
 More steering effort will be required because the power steering system
will be disabled.
 If you are driving down a long hill, the brakes may overheat and brake per-
formance will be reduced. Stop often
and let the brakes cool off.
CAUTION
Use extreme caution when towingthe vehicle.
 Avoid sudden starts or erratic driving maneuvers which wouldplace excessive stress on theemergency towing hook and tow- ing cable or chain. The hook andtowing cable or chain may breakand cause serious injury or dam- age.
 If the towing vehicle does not move easily, do not forcibly continue thetowing. Contact an authorized Kiadealer or a commercial tow truckservice for assistance.
 Tow the vehicle as straight ahead as possible.
 Keep away from the vehicle dur- ing towing.

In case of an emergency
Changing tires Jacking instructions The jack is provided for emergency tire
changing only.
Follow jacking instructions to reduce the
possibility of personal injury.
Tire replacement 1. Park on a level surface and apply theparking brake firmly.
2. Shift the shift lever into R (Reverse) with manual transaxle or P (Park) with
automatic transaxle.
3. Activate the hazard warning flasher.
WARNING
- Changing tires
 Never attempt vehicle repairs in the traffic lanes of a public road
or highway.
 Always move the vehicle com- pletely off the road and onto the
shoulder before trying to change
a tire. The jack should be used on
level firm ground. If you cannot
find a firm, level place off the
road, call a towing service com-
pany for assistance.
 Be sure to use the correct front and rear jacking positions on the
vehicle; never use the bumpers or
any other part of the vehicle for
jack support.
(Continued)
(Continued)
 The vehicle can easily roll off thejack causing serious injury or
death. No person should place
any portion of their body under a
vehicle that is supported only by
a jack ; use vehicle support
stands.
 Do not start or run the engine while the vehicle is on the jack.
 Do not allow anyone to remain in the vehicle while it is on the jack.
 Make sure any children present are in a secure place away from
the road and from the vehicle to
be raised with the jack.

612. Once the wheel lug nuts have been
tightened, lower the vehicle fully to the
ground and continue to tighten the lug
nuts until they are fully secured.
Tighten the wheel lug nuts firmly in a
“X” pattern.
If you are unsure of the tightness of
the wheel lug nuts, have them
checked at the nearest service sta-
tion. The specified tightening torque is
9~11 kgm (65-79 lbft, 88-107 Nm).
Improperly tightened wheel lug nuts
could cause brake pedal vibration
while braking. To prevent the jack, jack handle, wheel
lug nut wrench and spare tire from rat-
tling while the vehicle is in motion, store
them properly.
CAUTION
Your vehicle has metric threads on
the wheel studs and nuts. Make cer- tain during wheel removal that thesame nuts removed are reinstalled -or, if replaced, that nuts with metric threads and the same chamfer con-figuration are used.
Installation of a non-metric threadnut on a metric stud or vice-versawill not secure the wheel to the hubproperly and will damage the studso that it must be replaced.
Note that most lug nuts do not havemetric threads. Be sure to use extreme care in checking for threadstyle before installing aftermarket lug nuts or wheels. If in doubt, con-sult an authorized Kia dealer.
1JBA6027
WARNING
- Wheel studs
If the studs are damaged or if non-
metric nut is used on a metric stud
or vice versa, they may lose their
ability to retain the wheel. This
could lead to the loss of the wheel
in a collision resulting in severe
injury or death.
WARNING
Check the inflation pressures as
soon as possible after installing the
spare tire. Adjust it to the specified
pressure, if necessary. Refer to
Section 8, Specifications.

headlights or interior lights were left on
while the vehicle was not in use),
recharge it by slow charging (trickle)
for 10 hours.
If the battery gradually discharges because of high electric load while the
vehicle is being used, recharge it at 20-
30A for two hours.Items to be reset after the battery hasbeen discharged or the battery hasbeen disconnected. Clock (See Chapter 3)
