In case of an emergency
TPMS (Tire pressure
monitoring system)
malfunction telltaleThe TPMS malfunction indicator turns
on and stays on when there is a prob-
lem with the Tire Pressure Monitoring
System. If the system is able to cor-
rectly detect an under-inflation warning
at the same time as system failure then
it will illuminate both the TPMS mal-
function and the low tire pressure tell-
tale e. g. if Front Left sensor fails, the
TPMS malfunction indicator turns on,
but if Front Right, Rear Left, or Rear
Right tire is under-inflated, the low tire
pressure telltale may turn on at the
same time as the TPMS malfunction
indicator.
Have the system checked by an
authorized Kia dealer as soon as pos-
sible to determine the cause of the
problem.
✽ ✽NOTICE• The TPMS malfunction indicator
may be illuminated if the vehicle is
moving around electric power sup-
ply cable or radio transmitter such
as near police stations, government
and public offices, broadcasting sta-
tions, military installations, air-
ports, or transmitting tower, etc.
which can interfere with normal
operation of the Tire Pressure
Monitoring System (TPMS).
• The TPMS malfunction indicator may be illuminated if some elec-
tronic devices, such as notebook
computers, are used in the vehicle.
This can interfere with normal
operation of the Tire Pressure
Monitoring System (TPMS).
• If there is a failed tire sensor, it is possible for the TPMS to tem-
porarily learn a replacement sen-
sor if closely driven to another
vehicle that is also equipped with
TPMS. In rare cases, this may
temporarily delay the TPMS mal-
function indicator from turning
on.

WARNING
- Low pressure
damage
Significantly low tire pressure
makes the vehicle unstable and
can contribute to loss of vehicle
control and increased braking
distances.
Continued driving on low pres-
sure tires can cause the tires to
overheat and fail.
TPMS
In case of an emergency66Changing a tire with TPMSIf you have a flat tire, the Low Tire
Pressure telltale will turn on. Have
the flat tire repaired by an authorized
Kia dealer as soon as possible or
replace the flat tire with the tempo-
rary spare tire.✽ ✽NOTICENEVER use a puncture-repairing
agent to repair and/or inflate a low
pressure tire. If used, you will have
to replace the tire pressure sensor. Each wheel is equipped with a tire
pressure sensor mounted inside the
tire behind the valve stem. You must
use TPMS specific wheels. It is rec-
ommended that you always have
your tires serviced by an authorized
Kia dealer as soon as possible. After you replace the low pressure
tire with the temporary spare tire, the
TPMS malfunction indicator may illu-
minate after restarting and about 20
minutes of continuous driving.
Once the low pressure tire is re-inflat-
ed to the recommended pressure
and installed on the vehicle, the
TPMS malfunction indicator and the
low tire pressure telltale will be soon
extinguished. If the low pressure and
TPMS malfunction indicators are not
extinguished after about 20 minutes
of continuous driving, please visit an
authorized Kia dealer.
You may not be able to identify a low
tire by simply looking at it. Always use
a good quality tire pressure gauge to
measure the tire's inflation pressure.
Please note that a tire that is hot
(from being driven) will have a higher
pressure measurement than a tire
that is cold (from sitting stationary for
at least 3 hours and driven less than
1.6 km (1 mile) during that 3 hour
period). Allow the tire to cool before
measuring the inflation pressure.Always be sure the tire is cold before
inflating to the recommended pres-
sure.
A cold tire means the vehicle has
been sitting for 3 hours and driven for
less than 1.6 km (1 mile) in that 3
hour period.

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 since this could causethe system to monitor thewrong sensors
