WARNING
Do not remove the radiator capwhen the engine is hot. This can al‐low coolant to blow out of the open‐ing and cause serious burns.
6. Iý you cannot ýind thü causü oý thü ovürhüatinþ, wait until thü ünþinü

CAUTION
•Serious loss of coolant indicatesthere is a leak in the cooling sys‐tem. In this case, have the sys‐tem checked by a professionalworkshop. Kia recommends tovisit an authorized Kia dealer/service partner.
•When the engine overheats fromlow engine coolant, suddenlyadding engine coolant may causecracks in the engine. To preventdamage, add engine coolantslowly in small quantities.

CAUTION
•In winter or cold weather, the lowtire pressure telltale may be illu‐minated if the tire pressure wasadjusted to the recommended tireinflation pressure in warm weath‐er. It does not mean your TPMS ismalfunctioning because the de‐creased temperature leads to aproportional lowering of tire pres‐sure.
•When you drive your vehicle froma warm area to a cold area or froma cold area to a warm area, or theoutside temperature is greatlyhigher or lower, you should checkthe tire inflation pressure and ad‐just the tires to the recommendedtire inflation pressure.
•When filling tires with more air,conditions to turn off the low tirepressure telltale may not be met.This is because a tire inflator has amargin of error in performance.The low tire pressure telltale willbe turned off if the tire pressure isabove the recommended tire infla‐tion pressure.
WARNING
nLow pressure damage
Significantly low tire pressure makesthe vehicle unstable and can contrib‐ute to loss of vehicle control and in‐creased braking distances.Continued driving on low pressuretires can cause the tires to overheatand fail.

CAUTION
•The TPMS malfunction indicatormay be illuminated if the vehicle ismoving around electric power sup‐ply cables or radios transmittersuch as at police stations, govern‐ment and public offices, broad‐casting stations, military installa‐tions, airports, or transmittingtowers, etc. This can interferewith normal operation of the TirePressure Monitoring System(TPMS).
•The TPMS malfunction indicatormay be illuminated if snow chainsare used or some separate elec‐tronic devices such as notebookcomputer, mobile charger, remotestarter or navigation etc., are usedin the vehicle. This can interferewith normal operation of the TirePressure Monitoring System(TPMS).

nTPMS
•The TPMS cannot alert you to se‐vere and sudden tire damagecaused by external factors such asnails or road debris.
•If you feel any vehicle instability,immediately take your foot off theaccelerator, apply the brakes grad‐ually and with light force, andslowly move to a safe position offthe road.

Tampering with, modifying, or disa‐bling the Tire Pressure MonitoringSystem (TPMS) components may in‐terfere with the system's ability towarn the driver of low tire pressureconditions and/or TPMS malfunc‐tions. Tampering with, modifying, ordisabling the Tire Pressure Monitor‐ing System (TPMS) components mayvoid the warranty for that portion ofthe vehicle.
WARNING
nFor EUROPE
•Do not modify the vehicle, it mayinterfere with the TPMS function.
•The wheels on the market do nothave a TPMS sensor.For your safety, use parts for re‐placement from a professionalworkshop. Kia recommends to visitan authorized Kia dealer/servicepartner.

CAUTION
Your vehicle has metric threads onthe wheel studs and nuts. Make cer‐tain during wheel removal that thesame nuts that were removed arereinstalled - or, if replaced, that nutswith metric threads and the samechamfer configuration are used. In‐stallation of a non-metric thread nuton a metric stud or vice-versa willnot secure the wheel to the hubproperly and will damage the stud sothat it must be replaced.
(Continued)
(Continued)
Note that most lug nuts do not havemetric threads. Be sure to use ex‐treme care in checking for threadstyle before installing aftermarketlug nuts or wheels. If in doubt, con‐sult a professional workshop. Kiarecommends to consult an author‐ized Kia dealer/service partner.
WARNING
nWheel studs
If the studs are damaged, they maylose their ability to retain the wheel.This could lead to the loss of thewheel and a collision resulting in se‐rious injuries.
