NOTICE
If the TPMS, Low Tire Pressure and
Position indicators do not illuminate
for 3 seconds when the ignition switch
is turned to the ON position or engine
is running, or if they remain illumi-
nated after coming on for approxi-
mately 3 seconds, we recommend that
you contact an authorized Kia dealer.Low tire pressure tell- tale
Low tire pressure posi- tion telltale
When the tire pressure monitoring
system warning indicators are illumi-
nated, one or more of your tires is
significantly under-inflated. The lowtire pressure position telltale light willindicate which tire is significantly
under-inflated by illuminating the cor-responding position light.
If either telltale illuminates, immedi-
ately reduce your speed, avoid hard
cornering and anticipate increased
stopping distances. You should stop
and check your tires as soon as pos-
sible. Inflate the tires to the proper
pressure as indicated on the vehi-
cle’s placard or tire inflation pressure
label located on the driver’s side cen-
ter pillar outer panel. If you cannot
reach a service station or if the tire
cannot hold the newly added air,
replace the low pressure tire with the
spare tire. Then the TPMS malfunction indicator
may turn on and the Low Tire
Pressure and Position telltales will
remain on after restarting and about
20 minutes of continuous driving
before you have the low pressure tire
repaired and replaced on the vehicle.
CAUTION
In winter or cold weather, the
low tire pressure telltale may beilluminated if the tire pressurewas adjusted to the recom- mended tire inflation pressurein warm weather. It does notmean your TPMS is malfunction- ing because the decreased tem-perature leads to a proportionallowering of tire pressure.
When you drive your vehiclefrom a warm area to a cold area or from a cold area to a warmarea, or the outside temperatureis greatly higher or lower, you should check the tire inflationpressure and adjust the tires tothe recommended tire inflation pressure.

TPMS (Tire Pressure Monitoring System)malfunction indicator
The TPMS malfunction indicator will
illuminate after it blinks for approxi-
mately one minute when there is a
problem with the Tire Pressure
Monitoring System.
We recommend that the system be
checked by an authorized Kia dealer to
determine the cause of the problem.
✽✽ NOTICE
If there is a malfunction with the
TPMS, the low tire pressure position
telltale will not be displayed even
though the vehicle has an under-
inflated tire.
CAUTION
In winter or cold weather, the low tire pressure telltale may beilluminated if the tire pressure was adjusted to the recom-mended tire inflation pressurein warm weather. It does not mean your TPMS is malfunction-ing because the decreased tem-perature leads to a proportional lowering of tire pressure.
When you drive your vehiclefrom a warm area to a cold areaor from a cold area to a warmarea, or the outside temperature is greatly higher or lower, youshould check the tire inflationpressure and adjust the tires tothe recommended tire inflation pressure.
WARNING -
Low pressure damage
Significantly low tire pressure
makes the vehicle unstable and
can contribute to loss of vehicle
control and increased brakingdistances.
Continued driving on low pres- sure tires can cause the tires to
overheat and fail.
