TOWING
Towing service
OJF075158L
If emergency towing is necessary, we
recommend having it done by an au‐
thorized Kia dealer or a commercial
tow-truck service. Proper lifting and
towing procedures are necessary to
prevent damage to the vehicle. The use
of wheel dollies (1) or flatbed is recom‐
mended.
It is acceptable to tow the vehicle with
the rear wheels on the ground (without
dollies) and the front wheels off the
ground.
If any of the loaded wheels or suspen‐
sion components are damaged or the
vehicle is being towed with the front
wheels on the ground, use a towing
dolly under the front wheels.
When being towed by a commercial
tow truck and wheel dollies are not
used, the front of the vehicle should al‐
ways be lifted, not the rear.
NOTICE
If the EPB does not release normally,
we recommend that you contact an
authorized Kia dealer.

CAUTION
Do not tow the vehicle backwards
with the front wheels on the
ground as this may cause damage
to the vehicle.
Do not tow with sling-type equip‐
ment. Use wheel lift or flatbed
equipment.
When towing your vehicle in an emer‐
gency without wheel dollies:
1. Set the ignition switch in the ACC
position.
