TOWING
Towing
If towing is necessary, we recommend
having it done by an Authorized Kia
Dealer or a commercial tow-truck service.
Proper lifting and towing procedures are
necessary to prevent damage to the vehi-
cle. State and local laws applicable to
vehicles in tow must be followed.
511
As a general rule, towed vehicles should
be pulled with the driving (front) wheels off
the ground.
If excessive damage or other conditions
prevent towing the vehicle with the driving
(front) wheels off the ground, use wheel
dollies.
1. Set the ignition switch in the ACC posi-
tion.
2. Place the shift lever in Neutral.
3. Release the parking brake.
lf the transmission, rear axle and steering
system are not damaged, the vehicle may
be towed forward only on all four wheels .
If these components are damaged, use
wheel dollies.
The following points are important when
towing a vehicle with all wheels on the
ground.
1. Set the ignition switch in the ACC
position.
2. Place the shift lever in Neutral.
3. Release the parking brake.
4. Do not exceed 56 km/h (35 mph)
and/or distance of 80 km (50 miles)
CAUTION
Remember that the power assistance
for the brakes and steering will not be
available when the engine is inopera-
tive.
