IF YOU HAVE A FLAT TIRE (WITH TIRE MOBILITY KIT, IF EQUIPPED)
0:#%
Please read the instructions before us‐
ing the Tire Mobility Kit. 1. Compressor
2. Sealant bottle
The Tire Mobility Kit is a temporary fix to the tire and have the tire inspected
by a professional workshop as soon as
possible. Kia recommends to visit an authorized Kia dealer/service partner.
CAUTION
nOne sealant for one tire
(Continued)
(Continued)
When two or more tires are flat, donot use the tire mobility kit becausethe supported one sealant of TireMobility Kit is only used for one flattire.
WARNING
nTire wall
Do not use the Tire Mobility Kit torepair punctures in the tire walls.This can result in an accident due totire failure.
WARNING
nTemporary fix
Have your tire repaired as soon aspossible. The tire may lose air pres‐sure at any time after inflating withthe Tire Mobility Kit.
CAUTION
•When replacing or repairing thetire after using tire sealant, makecertain to remove the sealant at‐tached to the inner part of the tireand wheel. If the sealant is not re‐moved, noise and vibration mayoccur.
•We recommend to use original Kiamanufactured sealant.
•If the TPMS warning light illumi‐nates after using the TMK, haveyour vehicle inspected by a profes‐sional workshop. Kia recommendsto contact an authorized Kia deal‐er/service partner.

Introduction
With the Tire Mobility Kit (TMK) you
stay mobile even after experiencing a tire puncture.
The system of compressor and sealing
compound effectively and comfortably
seals most punctures in a passenger car tire caused by nails or similar ob‐
jects and reinflates the tire.
After 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 of 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 larger punctures or damage to the
sidewall, cannot be sealed completely.
Air pressure loss in the tire may ad‐ versely affect tire performance.
For this reason, you should avoid
abrupt steering or other driving ma‐
neuvers, especially if the vehicle is heavily loaded or if a trailer is in use.
The TMK is not designed or intended as
a permanent tire repair method and is
to be used for one tire only.This instruction shows you step by step
how to temporarily seal the puncture simply and reliably.

Please note the expiry date on thesealant bottle.
Using the Tire Mobility Kit
1. Detach the speed restriction label(1) from the sealant bottle (2), and
place it in a highly visible place in‐
side the vehicle such as on the
steering wheel to remind the driver
not to drive too fast.
2. Filling the sealant Strictly follow the specified sequence, otherwise
the sealant may escape under high pressure.
3. Shake the sealant bottle.
4. Connect the filling hose (3) onto the connector of the sealant bottle (A).
5. Ensure that the button (9) on the compressor is not pressed.
6. Unscrew the valve cap from the valve of the defective wheel and
screw the filling hose (3) of the
sealant bottle onto the valve.
7. Insert the sealant bottle into the housing of the compressor so that
the bottle is upright (B).
8. Ensure that the compressor is switched off, position 0.
9. Connect between compressor and the vehicle power outlet using the
cable and connectors.
NOTICE
Only use the front passenger side
power outlet.
10. With the ignition switched on or en‐ gine start/stop button position on:
Switch on the compressor and let it
run for approximately 3 minutes to
fill the sealant. The inflation pres‐
sure of the tire after filling is unim‐
portant.
11. Switch off the compressor.

12. Detach the hose from the sealantbottle connector and from the tire
valve.
Return the Tire Mobility Kit to its stor‐ age location in the vehicle.
WARNING
Carbon monoxide poisoning and suf‐focation is possible if the engine isleft running in a poorly ventilated orunventilated location (such as insidea building).
Distributing the sealant
13. Immediately drive approximately 7~10km (4~6miles or, about 10min)
to evenly distribute the sealant in
the tire.
CAUTION
Do not exceed a speed of 60 km/h(35 mph). If possible, do not fall be‐low a speed of 20 km/h (12 mph).
(Continued)
(Continued)
While driving, if you experience anyunusual vibration, ride disturbanceor noise, reduce your speed anddrive with caution until you cansafely pull off of the side of theroad. Call for road side service ortowing.When you use the Tire Mobility Kit,the wheel may be stained by seal‐ant. Therefore, remove the wheelstained by sealant and have the ve‐hicle inspected at a professionalworkshop. Kia recommends to visitan authorized Kia dealer/servicepartner.
Checking the tire inflation
pressure
1. After driving approximately 7~10 km (4~6 miles or about
10 minutes), stop at a suitable lo‐
cation.
2. Connect the filling hose (3) of the compressor (clip mounted side) di‐
rectly and then connect the filling
hose (3) (opposite side) to the tire
valve. 3. Connect between compressor and
the vehicle battery using the cable
and connectors.
4. Adjust the tire inflation pressure to 200 kPa (29 psi). With the ignition
switched on, proceed as follows.
-
To increase the inflation pressure:
Switch on the compressor, position I.
To check the current inflation pres‐
sure setting, briefly switch off the
compressor.
WARNING
Do not let the compressor run formore than 10 minutes, otherwisethe device will overheat and may bedamaged.
-To reduce the inflation pressure:
Press the button (9) on the compres‐
sor.

EMERGENCY COMMODITY (IF EQUIPPED)
There are some emergency commodi‐ ties in the vehicle to help you respond
to the emergency situation.
Fire extinguisher
If there is a small fire and you know
how to use the fire extinguisher, take the following steps carefully. 1. Pull the pin at the top of the extin‐ guisher that keeps the handle from
being accidentally pressed.
2. Aim the nozzle toward the base of the fire.
3. Stand approximately 2.5 m (8 ft) away from the fire and squeeze
the handle to discharge the extin‐
guisher. If you release the handle,
the discharge will stop.
4. Sweep the nozzle back and forth at the base of the fire. After the fire
appears to be out, watch it careful‐
ly since it may re-ignite.
First aid kit
There are some items such as scissors,
bandage and adhesive tape etc. in the kit to give first aid to an injured person.
Triangle reflector
Place the triangle reflector on the roadto warn oncoming vehicles during
emergencies, such as when the vehicle
is parked by the roadside due to any problems.
Tire pressure gauge (if
equipped)
Tires normally lose some air in day-to-
day use, and you may have to add a
few pounds of air periodically and it is
not usually a sign of a leaking tire, but
of 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 fol‐ lowing steps; 1. Unscrew the inflation valve cap that is located on the rim of the
tire.
2. Press and hold the gauge against the tire valve. Some air will escape
as you begin and more will escape
if you don't press the gauge in
firmly.
3. A firm non-leaking push will acti‐ vate the gauge. 4. Read the tire pressure on the
gauge to know whether the tire
pressure is low or high.
5. Adjust the tire pressures to the specified pressure. Refer to L

brought to the attention of your dealer as soon as possible.
These Owner Maintenance Checks are
generally not covered by warranties
and you may be charged for labor, parts and lubricants used.
Owner maintenance schedule
When you stop for fuel:
• Check the engine oil level.
• Check the coolant level in the coolant reservoir.
• Check the windshield washer fluid level.
• Look for low or under-inflated tires.
WARNING
Be careful when checking your en‐gine coolant level when the engine ishot. Scalding hot coolant and steam

may blow out under pressure. Thiscould cause burns or other seriousinjury.
While operating your vehicle:
• Note any changes in the sound of the exhaust or any smell of exhaust
fumes in the vehicle.
• Check for vibrations in the steering wheel. Notice any increased steering
effort or looseness in the steering
wheel, or change in its straight-
ahead position.
• Notice if your vehicle constantly turns slightly or L
