WARNING
nABS
Do not pump the brake pedal on avehicle equipped with ABS.
• Iý stallüd in snow, mud, or sand, usü sücond þüar. Accülüratü slowly to
avoid spinninþ thü drivü whüüls.
• Usü sand, rock salt, tirü chains, or othür non-slip matürial undür thü

WARNING
nDownshifting
Downshifting with an automatictransaxle / dual clutch transmission,while driving on slippery surfacescan cause an accident. The suddenchange in tire speed could cause thetires to skid. Be careful when down‐shifting on slippery surfaces.
Rocking the vehicle
Iý it is nücüssary to rock thü vühiclü to
ýrüü it ýrom snow, sand, or mud, ýirst turn thü stüürinþ whüül riþht and lüýt
to clüar thü arüa around your ýront

CAUTION
Prolonged rocking may cause engineover-heating, transaxle damage orfailure, and tire damage.
WARNING
nSpinning tires
Do not spin the wheels, especially atspeeds more than 56 km/h(35 mph). Spinning the wheels athigh speeds when the vehicle is sta‐tionary could cause a tire to over‐heat which could result in tire dam‐age that may injure bystanders.

nTire chains
•The use of chains may adverselyaffect vehicle handling.
•Do not exceed 30 km/h (20 mph)or the chain manufacturer’s rec‐ommended speed limit, whicheveris lower.
•Drive carefully and avoid bumps,holes, sharp turns, and other roadhazards, which may cause the ve‐hicle to bounce.
•Avoid sharp turns or locked-wheelbraking.
CAUTION
•Chains that are the wrong size orimproperly installed can damageyour vehicle's brake lines, suspen‐sion, body and wheels.
•Stop driving and retighten thechains any time you hear themhitting the vehicle.

CAUTION
We recommend that you use thesealant approved by Kia if your vehi‐cle is equipped with a Tire PressureMonitoring System. The liquid seal‐ant can damage the tire pressuresensors.
WARNING
nTPMS
•The TPMS cannot alert you to se‐vere and sudden tire damagecaused by external factors such asnails or road debris.
•If you feel any vehicle instability,immediately take your foot off theaccelerator, apply the brakes grad‐ually and with light force, andslowly move to a safe position offthe road.
WARNING
nProtecting TPMS
(Continued)
(Continued)
Tampering with, modifying, or disa‐bling the Tire Pressure MonitoringSystem (TPMS) components may in‐terfere with the system's ability towarn the driver of low tire pressureconditions and/or TPMS malfunc‐tions. Tampering with, modifying, ordisabling the Tire Pressure Monitor‐ing System (TPMS) components mayvoid the warranty for that portion ofthe vehicle.
WARNING
nFor EUROPE
•Do not modify the vehicle, it mayinterfere with the TPMS function.
•The wheels on the market do nothave a TPMS sensor.For your safety, use parts for re‐placement from a professionalworkshop. Kia recommends to visitan authorized Kia dealer/servicepartner.
(Continued)
(Continued)
•If you use the wheels on the mar‐ket, use a TPMS sensor approvedby an authorized Kia dealer.If your vehicle is not equipped witha TPMS sensor or TPMS does notwork properly, you may fail theperiodic vehicle inspection conduc‐ted in your country.

CAUTION
Your vehicle has metric threads onthe wheel studs and nuts. Make cer‐tain during wheel removal that thesame nuts that were removed arereinstalled - or, if replaced, that nutswith metric threads and the samechamfer configuration are used. In‐stallation of a non-metric thread nuton a metric stud or vice-versa willnot secure the wheel to the hubproperly and will damage the stud sothat it must be replaced.
(Continued)
(Continued)
Note that most lug nuts do not havemetric threads. Be sure to use ex‐treme care in checking for threadstyle before installing aftermarketlug nuts or wheels. If in doubt, con‐sult a professional workshop. Kiarecommends to consult an author‐ized Kia dealer/service partner.
WARNING
