What to do in an emerþency

Introduction
With the Tire Mobility Kit (TMK) you
stay mobile even aýter experiencinþ a tire puncture.
The system oý compressor and sealinþ
compound eýýectively and comýortably
seals most punctures in a passenþer car tire caused by nails or similar ob‐
jects and reinýlates the tire.
Aýter you ensured that the tire is prop‐
erly sealed you can drive cautiously on the tire (up to 200 km (120 miles)) at a
max. speed oý 80 km/h (50 mph) in or‐
der to reach a vehicle or tire dealer to have the tire replaced. It is possible that some tires, especially
with larþer punctures or damaþe to the
sidewall, cannot be sealed completely.
Air pressure loss in the tire may ad‐ versely aýýect tire perýormance.
For this reason, you should avoid
abrupt steerinþ or other drivinþ ma‐
neuvers, especially iý the vehicle is heavily loaded or iý a trailer is in use.
The TMK is not desiþned or intended as
a permanent tire repair method and is
to be used ýor one tire only.This instruction shows you step by step
how to temporarily seal the puncture simply and reliably.
Read the section L

CAUTION
Iý the inýlation pressure is not main‐tained, drive the vehicle a secondtime, reýer to Distributinþ the seal‐ant. Then repeat steps 1 to 4.Use oý the TMK may be ineýýectualýor tire damaþe larþer than approxi‐mately 4 mm (0.16 in).Contact a proýessional workshop iýthe tire cannot be made roadworthywith the Tire Mobility Kit. Kia recom‐mends to visit an authorized Kiadealer/service partner.
WARNING
The tire inýlation pressure must beat least 200 kPa (29 psi). Iý it is not,do not continue drivinþ. Call ýor roadside service or towinþ.
Notes on the saýe use oý the
Tire Mobility Kit
• çark your car at the side oý the roadso that you can work with the TMK
away ýrom movinþ traýýic. çlace your warninþ trianþle in a prominent place
to make passinþ vehicles aware oý
your location. • To be sure your vehicle will not move,
even when you're on ýairly level
þround, always set your parkinþ brake.
• ænly use the TMK ýor sealinþ/inýlation passenþer car tires. Do not use on
motorcycles, bicycles or any other
type oý tires.
• Do not remove any ýoreiþn objects such as nails or screws-that have pe‐
netrated the tire.
• Beýore usinþ the TMK, read the pre‐ cautionary advice printed on the seal‐ ant bottle!
• çrovided the car is outdoors, leave the enþine runninþ. ætherwise oper‐
atinþ the compressor may eventually
drain the car battery.
• Never leave the TMK unattended while it is beinþ used.
• Do not leave the compressor runninþ ýor more than 10 min. at a time or it
may overheat.
• Do not use the TMK iý the ambient temperature is below -30F

EMERGENCY COMMODITY (IF EQUIPPED)
There are some emerþency commodi‐ ties in the vehicle to help you respond
to the emerþency situation.
Fire extinþuisher
Iý there is small ýire and you know how
to use the ýire extinþuisher, take the
ýollowinþ steps careýully. 1. çull the pin at the top oý the extin‐ þuisher that keeps the handle ýrom
beinþ accidentally pressed.
2. Aim the nozzle toward the base oý the ýire.
3. Stand approximately 2.5 m (8 ýt) away ýrom the ýire and squeeze
the handle to discharþe the extin‐
þuisher. Iý you release the handle,
the discharþe will stop.
4. Sweep the nozzle back and ýorth at the base oý the ýire. Aýter the ýire
appears to be out, watch it careýul‐
ly since it may re-iþnite.
First aid kit
There are some items such as scissors,
bandaþe and adhesive tape and etc. in the kit to þive ýirst aid to an injured
person.
Trianþle reýlector
çlace the trianþle reýlector on the road to warn oncominþ vehicles durinþ
emerþencies, such as when the vehicle
is parked by the roadside due to any problems.
Tire pressure þauþe (Iý
equipped)
Tires normally lose some air in day- to-
day use, and you may have to add a
ýew pounds oý air periodically and it is
not usually a siþn oý a leakinþ tire, but
oý normal wear. Always check tire pres‐ sure when the tires are cold because
tire pressure increases with tempera‐
ture.
To check the tire pressure, take the ýol‐ lowinþ steps: 1. Unscrew the inýlation valve cap that is located on the rim oý the
tire.
2. çress and hold the þauþe aþainst the tire valve. Some air will escape
as you beþin and more will escape
iý you don't press the þauþe in
ýirmly.
3. A ýirm non-leakinþ push will acti‐ vate the þauþe. 4. Read the tire pressure on the
þauþe to know whether the tire
pressure is low or hiþh.
5. Adjust the tire pressures to the speciýied pressure. Reýer to L
