What to do in an emergency
127
If you have a flat tire (with Tire Mobility Kit)
CAUTION
僅 Securely install the sealant filling hose
to the valve. If not, sealant may flow
backward, possibly clogging the filling
hose.
僅 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 wheel may be
stained by sealant. Therefore, remove
the wheel stained by sealant and have
the vehicle inspected at a professional
workshop. Kia recommends visiting
an authorized Kia dealer/service part

Checking tire inflation pressure
Operation
僅 After driving approximately 7~10 km
(4~6 miles, or approximately 10 min -
utes), stop the vehicle in a safe, level
place.
僅 Connect the filling hose directly to the
tire valve.
僅 Connect the power outlet connector.
僅 Adjust the tire inflation pressure to the
specified value.
- Turn the compressor on to increase
the inflation pressure. Turn the
compressor off briefly to check the
current inflation pressure.
- Turn the compressor valve to
reduce the inflation pressure.
WARNING
僅 Do not let the compressor run for
more than 10 minutes, otherwise the
device will overheat and may be dam -
aged.
僅 The tire inflation pressure must be
inflated to the proper pressure (Refer
to "Tires and wheels" on page 9-4). If it
is not, do not continue driving. Call for
road side service or towing.
CAUTION
僅 If the inflation pressure is not main -
tained, drive the vehicle a second
time, refer to "Distributing the sealant"
on page 7-11. Then repeat steps 1 to 4.
僅 Use of the TMK may be ineffectual for
tire damage larger than approxi
-
mately 4 mm (0.16 inches).
僅 We recommend that you contact a
professional workshop if the tire can
-
not be made roadworthy with the Tire
Mobility Kit.
NOTICE
When reinstalling the repaired or
replaced tire and wheel on the vehicle,
tighten the wheel lug nut to 11~13 kgf·m
(79~94 lbf·ft).
