What to do in an emergency
• For your safety, do not exceed a driving speed of approximately 80 km/h. If abnor
mal vibrations or noise occur during driving, reduce speed, park in a safe location,
and Call for road side service or towing to an authorised Kia dealer/service partner.
• When you use the Tyre Mobility Kit, the wheel may be stained by sealant. Therefore,
remove the wheel stained by sealant and have the vehicle inspected at a profes
sional workshop. Kia recommends visiting an authorised Kia dealer/service partner.
• If the inflation pressure is not maintained, drive the vehicle a second time, refer to
"Distributing the sealant" on page 732 . Then repeat steps 1 to 4.
• Use of the TMK may be ineffectual for tyre damage larger than approximately 4
mm (0.16 inches).
• We recommend that you contact a professional workshop if the tyre cannot be
made roadworthy with the Tyre Mobility Kit.
NOTE
• Driving the vehicle after injecting the sealant into the tyre helps evenly spread the
sealant on the puncture area as the vehicle vibrates during driving.
• The Tyre Mobility Kit is not designed or intended as a permanent tyre repair method
and is to be used for one tyre only.
• The sealant seals the puncture area and maintains the tyre pressure with vibrations
and slight heat generated by the tyre.
• After ensuring that the tyre is properly sealed, you can drive cautiously on the tyre
(for a distance of up to 200 km (120 miles)) at maximum speed of 80 km/h (50
mph) in order to reach a service station or a tyre dealer to have the tyre replaced.
• Avoid abrupt steering or other driving manoeuvres if the vehicle is heavily loaded or
if a trailer is in use. For more details, refer to "Safe use of Tyre Mobility Kit" on page
734 .
