to program the vehicle to maintain a
constant speed without depressing
the accelerator pedal.

above approximately 20 mph
(30 km/h).

(CRUISE indicator light in the instru-
ment cluster illuminated) the cruise
control can be switched on acciden-
tally. Keep the cruise control system
off (CRUISE indicator light OFF)when the cruise control is not in use,
to avoid inadvertently setting a
speed.
Use the cruise control system only
when traveling on open highways in
good weather.
Do not use the cruise control when
driving in heavy or varying traffic, or
on slippery (rainy, icy or snow-cov-
ered) or winding roads or steep hills
up-hill or down-hill roads.✽
NOTICE

Pressing the Engine Start/Stop
button to the ON position or start-
ing the engine. This is to check if
the brake switch which is impor-
tant part to cancel cruise control is
in normal condition.

WARNING
KH USA 6:2016 12/1/2016 11:08 PM Page 4

Please note that the TPMS is not a
substitute for proper tire maintenance,
and it is the driver’s responsibility to
maintain correct tire pressure, even if
under-inflation has not reached the
level to trigger illumination of the
TPMS low tire pressure telltale.Your vehicle has also been equipped
with a TPMS malfunction indicator to
indicate when the system is not oper-
ating properly. The TPMS malfunction
indicator is combined with the low tire
pressure telltale. When the system
detects a malfunction, the telltale will
flash for approximately one minute
and then remain continuously illumi-
nated. This sequence will continue
upon subsequent vehicle start-ups as
long as the malfunction exists.
When the malfunction indicator is illu-
minated, the system may not be able
to detect or signal low tire pressure
as intended. TPMS malfunctions may
occur for a variety of reasons, includ-
ing the installation of replacement or
alternate tires or wheels on the vehi-
cle that prevent the TPMS from func-
tioning properly. Always check the TPMS malfunction
telltale after replacing one or more
tires or wheels on your vehicle to
ensure that the replacement or alter-
nate tires and wheels allow the TPMS
to continue to function properly.
✽
NOTICE
If any of the below happens, have
the system be checked by an author-
ized K900 Kia dealer.
1.The low tire pressure telltale/
TPMS malfunction indicator does
not illuminate for 3 seconds when
the Engine Start/Stop button is
turned to the ON or engine is run-
ning.
2. The TPMS malfunction indicator remains illuminated after blinking
for approximately 1 minute.
3. The Low tire pressure position telltale remains illuminated.

OKH053104N
Failure to place the shift lever in
N (Neutral) may cause internal
damage to the transaxle.

What to do in an emergency
If the disabled vehicle cannot bemoved, do not forcibly continue the
towing. Contact an authorized
K900 Kia dealer or a commercial
tow truck service for assistance.
Tow the vehicle as straight ahead as possible.
Use a towing strap less than 16feet (5 m) long. Attach a white or
red cloth (about 12 inches (30 cm)
wide) in the middle of the strap for
easy visibility.
Drive carefully so that the towing strap is not loosened during tow-
ing.
✽ NOTICE
Emergency towing is not legal in all
states. Contact an authorized K900
Kia dealer and tow the vehicle.
Emergency towing precautions
Place the transaxle shift lever in N
(Neutral).
Release the parking brake.
Press the brake pedal with more force than normal since you will
have reduced brake performance.
More steering effort will be required because the power steer-
ing system will be disabled.
If you are driving down a long hill, the brakes may overheat and brake
performance will be reduced. Stop
often and let the brakes cool off.
If the car is being towed with all four wheels on the ground, it can
be towed only from the front. Be
sure that the transmission is in
neutral. Be sure the steering is
unlocked by placing the Engine
Start/Stop Button in the ACC posi-
tion. A driver must be in the towed
vehicle to operate the steering and
brakes.
Use extreme caution when tow-
ing the vehicle.
Avoid sudden starts or erratic
driving maneuvers which would
place excessive stress on the
emergency towing hook and
towing cable or chain. The hook
and towing cable or chain may
break and cause serious injury
or damage.
Keep away from the vehicle dur-
ing towing.
