TPMS (Tyre Pressure Monitoring System)malfunction indicator
The low tyre pressure telltale will illu-
minate after it blinks for approximate-
ly one minute when there is a prob-
lem with the Tyre Pressure
Monitoring System. If the system is
able to correctly detect an underinfla-
tion warning at the same time as sys-
tem failure then it will illuminate both
the TPMS malfunction and low tyre
pressure position telltales e.g. if Front
Left sensor fails, the TPMS malfunc-
tion indicator illuminates, but if the
Front Right, Rear Left, or Rear Right
tyre is under-inflated, the low tyre
pressure position telltales may illumi-
nate together with the TPMS mal-
function indicator.
We recommend that the system be
checked by an authorised Kia dealer.
WARNING - Low pressure
damage
Significantly low tyre pressure
makes the vehicle unstable and
can contribute to loss of vehicle
control and increased brakingdistances.
Continued driving on low pres- sure tyres can cause the tyres
to overheat and fail.CAUTION
The TPMS malfunction indica- tor may be illuminated if thevehicle is moving around elec- tric power supply cables orradios transmitter such as atpolice stations, government and public offices, broadcast-ing stations, military installa-tions, airports, or transmitting towers, etc. This can interferewith normal operation of theTyre Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS).
The TPMS malfunction indica- tor may be illuminated if snowchains are used or some sep-arate electronic devices such as notebook computer, mobilecharger, remote starter or nav-igation etc., are used in the vehicle. This can interfere withnormal operation of the TyrePressure Monitoring System(TPMS).

What to do in an emergency
Changing a tyre with TPMS
If you have a flat tyre, the Low Tyre
Pressure and Position telltales will
come on. We recommend that the
system be checked by an authorised
Kia dealer. Each wheel is equipped with a tyre pressure sensor mounted inside the
tyre behind the valve stem. You must
use TPMS specific wheels. It is rec-
ommended that you have your tyres
serviced by an authorised Kia dealer. Even if you replace the low pressure
tyre with the spare tyre, the Low Tyre
Pressure and Position telltales will
remain on until the low pressure tyre
is repaired and placed on the vehi-
cle.
After you replace the low pressure
tyre with the spare tyre, the TPMS
malfunction indicator may illuminate
after a few minutes because theTPMS sensor is not mounted on thespare wheel.
Once the low pressure tyre is rein- flated to the recommended pressure
and installed on the vehicle or theTPMS sensor mounted on the
replaced spare wheel is initiated by
recommended authorised Kia dealer,
the TPMS malfunction indicator and
the low tyre pressure and position
telltales will extinguish within a few
minutes of driving.
If the indicators are not extinguished
after a few minutes of driving, werecommend that the system be
checked by an authorised Kia dealer.CAUTION
If a original mounted tyre is
replaced with the spare tyre, theTPMS sensor on the replaced spare wheel should be initiatedand the TPMS sensor on theoriginal mounted wheel shouldbe deactivated. If the TPMS sen- sor on the original mountedwheel located in the spare tyrecarrier still activates, the tyre pressure monitoring systemmay not operate properly. Werecommend that the system be serviced by an authorised Kiadealer.
CAUTION
We recommend that you use apuncture-repairing agentapproved by Kia to repair and/or inflate a low pressure tyre. Thetyre sealant not approved by Kiamay damage the tyre pressure sensor.
The sealant on the tyre pressuresensor and wheel shall be elem-inated when you replace thetyre with a new one.

You may not be able identify a low
tyre by simply looking at it. Alwaysuse a good quality tyre pressuregauge to measure the tyre's inflation
pressure. Please note that a tyre that
is hot (from being driven) will have ahigher pressure measurement than atyre that is cold (from sitting station-
ary for at least 3 hours and driven
less than 1 mile (1.6 km) during that
3 hour period).
Allow the tyre to cool before measur-
ing the inflation pressure. Always be
sure the tyre is cold before inflating
to the recommended pressure.
A cold tyre means the vehicle has
been sitting for 3 hours and driven forless than 1 mile (1.6 km) in that 3
hour period.
CAUTION
We recommend to use the Tyre
Mobility Kit approved by Kia ifyour vehicle is equipped with a Tyre Pressure MonitoringSystem. The liquid sealant candamage the tyre pressure sen- sors.
WARNING - Protecting
TPMS
Tampering with, modifying, or
disabling the Tyre PressureMonitoring System (TPMS)
components may interfere withthe system's ability to warn the
driver of low tyre pressure con-
ditions and/or TPMS malfunc-
tions. Tampering with, modify-
ing, or disabling the TyrePressure Monitoring System
(TPMS) components may void
the warranty for that portion of
the vehicle.WARNING - TPMS
The TPMS cannot alert you to severe and sudden tyre dam-
age caused by external fac-
tors such as nails or roaddebris.
If you feel any vehicle instabil- ity, immediately take your foot
off the accelerator, apply the
brakes gradually and with
light force, and slowly move to
a safe position off the road.
