What to do in an emergency
Even if you replace the low pressure
tyre with the spare tyre, the Low TyrePressure telltale will remain on until
the low pressure tyre is repaired and
placed on the vehicle.
After you replace the low pressure
tyre with the spare tyre, the TPMS
malfunction indicator may illuminate
after a few minutes because theTPMS sensor mounted on the sparewheel is not initiated.
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
an authorised Kia dealer, the TPMS
malfunction indicator and the low
tyre pressure telltale will extinguish
within a few minutes of driving.
If the indicator is not extinguished after
a few minutes of driving, have the sys-
tem be checked by a professional
workshop. Kia recommends to visit an
authorised Kia dealer/service partner.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 1.6 km (1 mile) 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 1.6 km (1 mile) in that 3
hour period.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. In thiscase, have the system checked by a professional workshop. Kiarecommends to visit an autho-rised Kia dealer/service partner.
CAUTION
We recommend that you use the sealant approved by Kia if yourvehicle is equipped with a TyrePressure Monitoring System. The liquid sealant can damagethe tyre pressure sensors.
