What to do in an emergency Tyre Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)
remote starter or navigation etc., are
used in the vehicle.
This can interfere with normal opera -
tion of the tyre Pressure Monitoring
System (TPMS).
Tyre replacement with TPMS
If you have a flat tyre, the low tyre Pres -
sure and Position telltales will come on.
In this case, have the system checked by
a professional workshop. Kia recom -
mends to visit an authorised Kia dealer/
service partner.
CAUTION
We recommend that you use the sealant
approved by Kia.
The sealant on the tyre pressure sensor
and wheel shall be eliminated when you
replace the tyre with a new one.
Each wheel is equipped with a tyre pres -
sure sensor mounted inside the tyre
behind the valve stem. You must use
TPMS specific wheels. Have your tyres
serviced by a professional workshop. Kia
recommends to visit an authorised Kia
dealer/service partner.
If you drive the vehicle for about 10 min -
utes at speeds above 25 km/h after
replacing the low pressure tyre with the
spare tyre, one of the following will hap -
pen:
僅 The TPMS malfunction indicator may
blink for approximately 1 minute and
then remain continuously illuminated
because the TPMS sensor is not
mounted on the spare wheel.
(changed tyre equipped with a sensor
not in the vehicle)
僅 The TPMS malfunction indicator will
remain continuously illuminated
whilst driving because the TPMS sen
-
sor is not mounted on the spare
wheel. (changed tyre equipped with a
sensor in the vehicle)
You may not be able to identify a low
tyre by simply looking at it. Always use a
good quality tyre pressure gauge to
measure the tyres inflation pressure.
Please note that a tyre that is hot (from
being driven) will have a higher pressure
measurement than a tyre that is cold
(from sitting stationary for at least 3
hours and driven less than 1.6 km (1
mile) during that 3 hour period).
Allow the tyre to cool before measuring
the inflation pressure. Always be sure
the tyre is cold before inflating to the
recommended pressure.
A cold tyre means the vehicle has been
sitting for 3 hours and driven for less
than 1.6 km (1 mile) in that 3 hour period.
CAUTION
We recommend that you use the sealant
approved by Kia if your vehicle is
equipped with a tyre Pressure Monitor -
ing System. The liquid sealant can dam -
age the tyre pressure sensors.
WARNING
TPMS
僅 The TPMS cannot alert you to severe
and sudden tyre damage caused by
external factors such as nails or road
debris.
僅 If you feel any vehicle instability,
immediately take your foot off the
accelerator, apply the brakes gradu -
ally and with light force, and slowly
move to a safe position off the road.
