The TPMS indicator
functions as both Low Tire
Pressure Light and TPMS Malfunction Indicator.
The Low Tire Pressure Position Indicator
A is displayed on
the LCD screen in the Instrument Cluster.
The TPMS and the Low Tire Pressure Position indicators will
illuminate if one or more tires is significantly underinflated,
the vehicle has a spare tire without TPMS or the temperature
changes (cold).
• Inflate tire(s) to specifications to turn off indicators using an accurate digital tire pressure
gauge. See front driver’s door jamb for PSI specification
• The TPMS Malfunction Indicator
will illuminate after it blinks for approximately one
minute when there is problem with the TPMS. See dealer for service
Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)
•
• Even with TPMS, tire pressure should be checked at least once a month. Only adjust Tire Pressure
on “cold tires”
• For proper maintenance, safety, and optimal fuel economy, maintain recommended tire inflation
pressures and stay within the load limits and weight distribution recommended for your vehicle
• In winter or cold weather, the TPMS light may illuminate if the tire pressure was adjusted to the
recommended tire inflation pressure during warm weather
QUICK TIPS
REMINDER: Consult your dealer for service if Low Tire Pressure Light remains illuminated after inflating your tire(s).

is manually turned OFF or when the EPB is
manually turned ON.
Ye l l o w : Malfunction - When the indicator
is illuminated yellow, there may be a system
malfunction. Take your vehicle to a local Kia
dealer.
