In case of an emergency
This device complies with Part 15
of the FCC rules.Operation is sub-
ject to the following two conditions:
1. This device may not cause harm- ful interference, and
2. This device must accept any inter- ference received, including inter-
ference that may cause undesired
operation.
WARNING - TPMS
The TPMS cannot alert you tosevere and sudden tire dam-
age caused by external fac-
tors.
If you feel any vehicle instabil- ity, immediately take your foot
off the accelerator and slowly
move to a safe position off the
road.
WARNING
Tampering with, modifying, or
disabling the Tire Pressure
Monitoring System (TPMS)
components may interfere with
the system's ability to warn the
driver of low tire pressure con-
ditions and/or TPMS malfunc-
tions. Tampering with, modify-
ing, or disabling the Tire
Pressure Monitoring System
(TPMS) components may void
the warranty for that portion of
the vehicle.
WARNING
Changes or modifications not
expressly approved by the party
responsible for compliance
could void the user's authority
to operate the equipment.
CAUTION
Do not use any tire sealant if your vehicle is equipped witha Tire Pressure MonitoringSystem. The liquid sealant candamage the tire pressure sen-sors.
In order for the system to cor- rectly monitor tires for under-inflation, there should be atotal of exactly 4 sensors fit-ted to each of the four drivenwheel positions. There shouldbe no other sensors in thevehicle include spare tireposition since this couldcause the system to monitorthe wrong sensors.

In case of an emergency22
6IF YOU HAVE A FLAT TIRE The spare tire, jack, jack handle,
and wheel lug nut wrench are stored
in the trunk compartment. Move the
carpeting out of the way to reach this
equipment.
The jack assembly is located in the
trunk, under the carpeting, on the
spare tire. Removing the spare tire
Turn the tire hold-down wing bolt
counterclockwise.
Store the tire in the reverse order of
removal.
To prevent the spare tire and tools
from “rattling” while the vehicle is in
motion, store them properly.Important - use of compact spare
tire (if equipped)
Your vehicle is equipped with a com-
pact spare tire. This compact spare
tire takes up less space than a regu-
lar-size tire. This tire is smaller than a
conventional tire and is designed for
temporary use only.
OGH046010N
1GHA407
CAUTION
- Compact spare
You should drive carefully
when the compact spare is inuse. The compact spareshould be replaced by theproper conventional tire andrim at the first opportunity.
The operation of this vehicle is not recommended withmore than one compact sparetire in use at the same time.

623
In case of an emergency
The compact spare should be inflat-
ed to 60 psi (420 kPa).✽ ✽NOTICECheck the inflation pressure after
installing the spare tire. Adjust it to
the specified pressure, as necessary.
When using a compact spare tire,
observe the following precautions:
Under no circumstances should
you exceed 50 mph (80 km/h); 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 per-
sonal injury.
Do not exceed the vehicle’s maxi- mum load rating or the load-carry-
ing 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 con-
ventional tire and reduces the
ground clearance approximately 1
inch (25 mm), which could result in
damage to the vehicle. Do not take the vehicle through an
automatic car wash with a compact
spare.
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 tire’s tread life is shorter than a regular tire.
Inspect your compact spare tire
regularly and replace worn com-
pact spare tires with the same size
and design, mounted on the same
wheel.
WARNING
- Compact spare
This spare tire should be used
only for VERY short distances.
Compact spares should NEVER
be used for long drives or
extended distances.

In case of an emergency
4. Remove the wheel lug nut wrench,jack, jack handle, and spare tire
from the vehicle.
5. Block both the front and rear of the wheel that is diagonally opposite
the jack position. 6. Wrap a piece of cloth around the
tip of the screwdriver to avoid
scratching.
7. Insert a screwdriver into the notch of the wheel cover and pry gently
to remove the wheel cover (if
equipped).
WARNING
- Changing a tire
To prevent vehicle movementwhile changing a tire, always
set the parking brake fully, and
always block the wheel diago-
nally opposite the wheel being
changed.
It is recommended that the wheels of the vehicle be
chocked, and that no person
should remain in a vehicle that
is being jacked.

68. Loosen the wheel lug nuts coun-
terclockwise one turn each, but do
not remove any nut until the tire
has been raised off the ground. 9. Place the jack at the front or rear
jacking position closest to the tire
you are changing. Place the jack
at the designated locations under
the frame. The jacking positions
are plates welded to the frame
with two tabs and a raised dot to
index with the jack. 10. Insert the jack handle into the
jack and turn it clockwise, raising
the vehicle until the tire just
clears the ground. This measure-
ment is approximately 1.2 in (30
mm). Before removing the wheel
lug nuts, make sure the vehicle is
stable and that there is no
chance for movement or slip-
page.
11. Remove the wheel lug nuts by turning them counterclockwise,
then remove the wheel.
12. Mount the spare tire into position and install the wheel lug nuts
with the beveled edge inward.
WARNING
- Jack location
To reduce the possibility of
injury, be sure to use only the
jack provided with the vehicle
and in the correct jack position;
never use any other part of the
vehicle for jack support.

13. Once the wheel lug nuts havebeen 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 “star” pattern.
If you are unsure of the tightness
of the wheel lug nuts, have them
checked at the nearest service
station. The specified tightening

Improperly tight-
ened wheel lug nuts could cause
brake pedal vibration while brak-
ing. 14. Reinstall the wheel cover by fit-
ting the boss of the wheel cover
in the groove of the wheel.
To prevent the jack, jack handle,
wheel lug nut, wrench and spare tire
from rattling while the vehicle is in
motion, store them properly.

CAUTION
Your vehicle has metric threadson the wheel studs and nuts.Make certain during wheelremoval that the same nutsremoved are reinstalled - or, ifreplaced, that nuts with metricthreads and the same chamferconfiguration are used.Installation of a non-metricthread nut on a metric stud orvice-versa will not secure thewheel to the hub properly andwill damage the stud so that itmust be replaced.
Note that most lug nuts do nothave metric threads. Be sure touse extreme care in checkingfor thread style before installingaftermarket lug nuts or wheels.If in doubt, consult anAuthorized Kia Dealer.
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 colli-
sion.
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.
