IF YOU HAVE A FLAT TIRE (TIRE MOBILITY KIT, IF EQUIPPED)
For safe operation, carefully read
and follow the instructions in this
manual before use.
(1) Compressor
(2) Sealant bottle
The Tire Mobility Kit is a temporary
fix to the tire and the tire should be
inspected by an authorized Kia deal-
er as soon as possible. When two or more tires are flat, do
not use the tire mobility kit because
the one supplied canister of sealant
in the Tire Mobility Kit is to only
enough sealant for one flat tire.
Have your tire repaired as soon as
possible. The tire may lose air pres-
sure at any time after inflating with
the Tire Mobility Kit.
Introduction
With the Tire Mobility Kit 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
objects and reinflates the tire.
After you ensured that the tire is prop-
erly sealed you can drive cautiously on
the tire (distance up to 200 km (120
miles)) at a max. speed of 80 km/h (50
mph) in order to reach a service station
or tire dealer for the tire replacement.

OAM060013L
WARNING- Tire wall
Do not use the Tire Mobility Kit
to repair punctures in the tire
walls. This can result in an acci-
dent due to tire failure.

719
What to do in an emergency
It is possible that some tires, espe-
cially with larger punctures or dam-
age to the sidewall, cannot be sealed
completely.
Air pressure loss in the tire may
adversely affect tire performance.
For this reason, you should avoid
abrupt steering or other driving
maneuvers, especially if the vehicle
is heavily loaded or if a trailer is in
use.
The Tire Mobility Kit 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.
Read the section "Notes on the safe
use of the Tire Mobility Kit".Notes on the suggested use of
the Tire Mobility Kit
Park your car at the side of the roadso that you can work with the Tire
Mobility Kit away from moving traf-
fic.
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 with-
in the tread region of the tire can be
sealed using the tire mobility kit.
Do not use on motorcycles, bicycles 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 6 mm (0.24 in).
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
-30°C (-22°F).

WARNING- Expired sealant
Do not use the Tire sealant after
the sealant has expired (i.e.
pasted the expiration date on
the sealant container). This can
increase the risk of tire failure.
WARNING - Sealant
Keep out of reach of children.
Avoid contact with eyes.
Do not swallow.

721
What to do in an emergency
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
inside the vehicle such as on the
steering wheel to remind the driv-
er not to drive too fast.
✽ ✽NOTICE
Before using the tire repair kit,
please read carefully the instruction
attached on the sealant case. Detach
the speed limit label on the sealant
case and put it on a highly visible
place. Always drive within the speed
limit.
Carefully follow below steps.
2. Shake the sealant case.

3. Screw connection hose (10) onto
the connector of the sealant bottle.
4. Ensure that screw cap (9) is closed.
5. Unscrew the valve cap from the valve of the defective wheel and
screw filling hose (3) of the sealant
bottle onto the valve.
6. Insert the sealant bottle into the housing (5) of the compressor so
that the bottle is upright.
7. Ensure that the compressor isswitched off, position 0. 8. Plug the compressor power cord
into the front passenger side
power outlet of the vehicle.
✽ ✽NOTICE
Only use the front passenger side
power outlet when connecting the
power cord.

WARNING
If sealant is dispersed when the
injection hose and tire air injec-
tion valve have not been fully
connected, the sealant may
overflow and clog the valve.

What to do in an emergency
9. With the engine start/stop buttonposition 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
proper pressure. (refer to the Tire
and Wheels, chapter 9). The infla-
tion pressure of the tire after filling
is unimportant and will be
checked/corrected later.
Be careful not to overinflate the tire
and stay away from the tire when
filling it. 10. Switch off the compressor.
11. 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
12. Immediately drive approximately 7~10 km (4~6 miles or, about 10
min) to evenly distribute the
sealant in the tire.
Do not exceed a speed of 80 km/h
(50 mph). If possible, do not fall
below a speed of 20 km/h (12 mph).
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.
Call for road side service or towing.
When you use the Tire Mobility Kit,
the tire pressure sensors and wheel
may be stained by sealant.
Therefore, remove the tire pressure
sensors and wheel stained by
sealant and have it serviced by an
authorized Kia dealer.
WARNING - Carbon monoxide
Do not leave your vehicle run-
ning in a poorly ventilated area
for extended periods of time.
Carbon monoxide poisoning
and suffocation can occur.
WARNING- Tire pressure
Do not attempt to drive your
vehicle if the tire pressure is
below 29 PSI(200kpa). This
could result in an accident due
to sudden tire failure.

Checking the tire inflation pres-
sure
1.After driving approximately
7~10km or about 10min (4
~6miles), stop at a safe location.
2.Connect connection hose (10) of the compressor directly to the tire
valve.
3.Plug the compressor power cord into the vehicle power outlet.
4.Adjust the tire inflation pressure to the recommended tire inflation.
With the ignition switched on, pro-
ceed as follows.
- To increase the inflation pres-sure : Switch on the compressor,
position I. To check the current
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 pressure, the compres-
sor needs to be turned off.
- To reduce the inflation pres-
sure: Loosen the screw cap (9)
on the compressor hose.
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 in authorized dealer.
