What to do in an emergency
TOWING
Towing service
If emergency towing is necessary,
we recommend having it done by an
authorized K900 Kia dealer or a
commercial tow-truck service.
Proper lifting and towing procedures
are necessary to prevent damage to
the vehicle. The use of wheel dollies
or flatbed is recommended.It is acceptable to tow the vehicle
with the front wheels on the ground
(without dollies) and the rear wheels
off the ground.
If any of the loaded wheels or sus-
pension components are damaged
or the vehicle is being towed with the
rear wheels on the ground, use a
towing dolly under the rear wheels.
When being towed by a commercial
tow truck and wheel dollies are not
used, the rear of the vehicle should
always be lifted, not the front.
Ensure any metal parts on the tie-
down straps do not contact painted
surfaces or the face of the wheels.
Do not place straps over the body panels or through the wheels.

Attaching straps to the chasis,
suspension or other parts of
the body can cause damage.
CAUTION
Side and curtain air bag
If your vehicle is equipped with
side and curtain air bag, set the
ignition switch to LOCK or ACC
position when the vehicle is
being towed. The side and cur-
tain air bag may deploy when
the ignitions is ON, and the
rollover sensor detects the situ-
ation as a rollover.
