Changing a tire with TPMS
If you have a flat tire, the Low Tire
Pressure telltale will come on. Have
the flat tire repaired by an authorized
Kia dealer as soon as possible or
replace the flat tire with the spare
tire.
Each wheel is equipped with a tire
pressure sensor mounted inside the
tire behind the valve stem. You must
use TPMS specific wheels. It is rec-
ommended that you always have
your tires serviced by an authorized
Kia dealer. Even if you replace the low pressure
tire with the spare tire, the Low Tire
Pressure telltale will remain on until
the low pressure tire is repaired and
placed on the vehicle.
After you replace the low pressure
tire with the spare tire, the TPMS
malfunction indicator may illuminate
after a few minutes because the
TPMS sensor mounted on the spare
wheel is not initiated.
Once the low pressure tire is inflated
again to the recommended pressure
and installed on the vehicle or the
TPMS sensor mounted on the
replaced spare wheel is initiated by
an authorized Kia dealer, the TPMS
malfunction indicator and the low tire
pressure telltale will turn off within a
few minutes of driving.
If the indicator has not disappeared
after a few minutes of driving, please
visit an authorized Kia dealer.
If an original mounted tire is replaced
with the spare tire, the TPMS sensor
on the replaced spare wheel should
be initiated and the TPMS sensor on
the original mounted wheel should be
deactivated. If the TPMS sensor on
the original mounted wheel located in
the spare tire carrier still activates,
the tire pressure monitoring system
may not operate properly. Have the
tire with TPMS serviced or replaced
by an authorized Kia dealer.
CAUTION- Repair
Agents
Never use a puncture-repairing
agent not approved by Kia torepair and/or inflate a low pres-sure tire. The sealant notapproved by Kia may damagethe tire pressure sensor.

Notes on the safe use of the
Tire Mobility Kit
Park your car at the side of the
road so that you can work with the
Tire Mobility Kit away from moving
traffic.
To be sure your vehicle will not move, even when you're on fairly
level ground, always set your park-
ing brake.
Only use the Tire Mobility Kit for sealing/inflation passenger car
tires. Only punctured areas located
within the tread region of the tire
can be sealed using the Tire
Mobility Kit.
Do not use on motorcycles, bicy- cles or any other type of tires.
When the tire and wheel are dam- aged, do not use Tire Mobility Kit
for your safety. Use of the Tire Mobility Kit may not
be effective for tire damage larger
than approximately 0.16 in. (4
mm).
Please contact the nearest Kia
dealership if the tire cannot be
made roadworthy with the Tire
Mobility Kit.
Do not use the Tire Mobility Kit if a tire is severely damaged by driving
run flat or with insufficient air pres-
sure.
Do not remove any foreign objects such as nails or screws that have
penetrated the tire.
Provided the car is outdoors, leave the engine running. Otherwise
operating the compressor may
eventually drain the car battery.
Never leave the Tire Mobility Kit unattended while it is being used.
Do not leave the compressor run- ning for more than 10 min. at a time
or it may overheat.
Do not use the Tire Mobility Kit if the ambient temperature is below -
22°F (-30°C).
WARNING
Do not use the Tire sealant after
the sealant has expired (i.e.
past the expiration date on the
sealant container). This can
increase the risk of tire failure.
CAUTION
When repairing a flat tire withthe Tire Mobility Kit (TMK),quickly remove the sealant onthe tire pressure sensor andwheel. When installing therepaired tire and wheel, tightenthe wheel nut to a torque valueof 11 ~ 13 kgf·m.
WARNING - Sealant
Keep out of reach of children.
Avoid contact with eyes.
Do not swallow.

What to do in an emergency
Using the Tire Mobility Kit
Carefully follow below steps.
1. Shake the sealant bottle.
ODE067006N
ODEP067048
WARNING
Before using the Tire Mobility
Kit, follow the instructions on
the sealant bottle.
Remove the label with the
speed restriction from the
sealant bottle and apply it to the
steering wheel.
Please note the expiry date on
the sealant bottle.
CAUTION
Before using the tire repair kit,please read carefully theinstruction attached on thesealant bottle. Detach the speedlimit label on the sealant caseand put it on a highly visibleplace. Always drive within thespeed limit.

2. Connect the filling hose (3) onto
the connector of the sealant bottle
(A).
3. Ensure that button (9) on the com- pressor is not pressed. 4. Unscrew the valve cap from the
valve of the defective wheel and
screw filling hose (3) of the sealant
bottle onto the valve.
5. Insert the sealant bottle into the housing of the compressor (5) so
that the bottle is upright.✽ ✽NOTICE
If a visable foreign object has punc-
tured the tire, do not remove it
before using Tire Mobility Kit.
✽ ✽NOTICE
If the sealant is injected when the
tire air pressure injection valve and
sealant injection hose are not fully
interlocked, the sealant may over-
flow and clog the valve.

6. Ensure that the compressor isswitched off, position 0.
7 Connect between compressor and the vehicle power outlet (4) using
the cable and connectors.
8. With the engine start/stop button position on or ignition switch posi-
tion on, switch on the compressor
and let it run for approximately 5 ~
7 minutes to fill the sealant up to
cold tire recommended pressure.
(refer to the Tire and Wheels,
chapter 9). The inflation pressure
of the tire after filling is unimpor-
tant and will be checked/corrected
later. Be careful not to overinflate
the tire and stay away from the tire
when filling it. 9. Switch off the compressor.
10. Detach the hoses from the
sealant bottle connector and
from the tire valve.
Return the Tire Mobility Kit to its stor-
age location in the vehicle.
Distributing the sealant
11. Immediately drive approximately 4 ~ 6 miles (7 ~ 10 km or, about
10 min) to evenly distribute the
sealant in the tire.
Do not exceed a speed of 50 mph
(80 km/h). If possible, do not fall
below a speed of 12 mph (20 km/h).
While driving, if you experience any
unusual vibration, ride disturbance or
noise, reduce your speed and drive
with caution until you can safely pull
off of the side of the road.

WARNING - Carbon monoxide
Carbon monoxide poisoning
and suffocation is possible if
the engine is left running in a
poorly ventilated or unventilat-
ed location (such as inside a
building).
ODE066040N
WARNING - Tire pressure
Do not attempt to drive your
vehicle if the tire pressure is
below 29 psi (200 kPa). This
could result in an accident due
to sudden tire failure.

Checking the tire inflation
pressure
1. After driving approximately 4 ~ 6
miles (7 ~ 10 km or about 10 min),
stop at a safe location.
2. Connect the filling hose (3) of the compressor (clip mounted side)
directly and then connect the fill
ing hose (3) (opposite side) to the
tire valve.
3. Connect between compressor and the vehicle power outlet using the
cable and connectors.
3. Adjust the tire inflation pressure to the cold tire recommended pres-
sure as indicated on the vehicle’s
placard or tire inflation pressure
label located on the driver’s side
center pillar outer panel. (In this
owner’s manual, refer to the Tire
and Wheels, chapter 9)
- To increase the inflation pres- sure : Switch on the compres-
sor, position I. To check the cur-
rent inflation pressure setting,
briefly switch off the compressor.
✽ ✽ NOTICE
The pressure gauge may show high-
er than actual reading when the
compressor is running. To get an
accurate tire reading, the compres-
sor needs to be turned off.CAUTION
When you use the Tire Mobility
Kit, the tire pressure sensorsand wheel may be stained bysealant. Therefore, remove thetire pressure sensors and wheelstained by sealant and haveyour vehicle inspected by anauthorized Kia dealer.
CAUTION
Do not let the compressor runfor more than 10 minutes; other-wise, the device may overheatand be damaged.

727
What to do in an emergency
- To reduce the inflation pres-sure: Press the button (9) on the
compressor.
CAUTION - Tire pressure
sensor
When you use the Tire MobilityKit including sealant notapproved by Kia, the tire pres-sure sensors may be damagedby sealant. The sealant on thetire pressure sensor and wheelshould be removed when youreplace the tire with a new oneand inspect the tire pressuresensors at an authorized dealer.
