In case of an emergency
If you do not have a spare, use a fuse ofthe same rating from a circuit you maynot need for operating the vehicle, suchas the radio or room lamp fuse.
If the headlights or other electrical com-
ponents do not work and the fuses are
OK, check the fuse block in the engine
compartment. If a fuse is blown, it must
be replaced. To check the fuse or relay in the engine
compartment, remove the engine com-
partment shroud.
1. Turn the ignition switch and all other
switches off.
2. Remove the fuse box cover by remov- ing the bolt on the cover and unhook-
ing the tab on one end and tilting the
cover back toward the other end.
3. Check the fuses. If one is blown, replace it with a new one of the same
rating.
✽NOTICE
After checking the fuse box in the engine
compartment, securely install the fuse
box cover. If not, electrical failures may
occur from water leaking in.

Towing with a vehicle other than
a tow truck
If towing is necessary, we recommend
you to have it done by an Authorized Kia
dealer or a commercial tow truck service.
If towing service is not available in an
emergency, your vehicle may be tem-
porarily towed using a cable or chain
secured to the emergency towing hook
under the front or rear of the vehicle. Use
extreme caution when towing the vehicle.
A driver must be in the vehicle to steer it
and operate the brakes.Towing in this manner may be done only
on hard-surfaced roads for a short dis-
tance and at low speeds. Also, the
wheels, axles, power train, steering and
brakes must all be in good condition.
• Do not use the tow hooks to pull a
vehicle out of mud, sand or other con-
ditions from which the vehicle cannot
be driven out under its own power.
• Avoid towing a vehicle heavier than the vehicle doing the towing.
• The drivers of both vehicles should communicate with each other frequent-
ly.

In case of an emergency
• Before emergency towing, check thatthe hook is not broken or damaged.
• Fasten the towing cable or chain securely to the hook.
• Do not jerk the hook. Apply steady and even force.
• To avoid damaging the hook, do not pull from the side or at a vertical angle.
Always pull straight ahead. • Use a towing strap less than 5 m (16
feet) long. Attach a white or red cloth
(about 30 cm (12 inches) wide) in the
middle of the strap for easy visibility.
• Drive carefully so that the towing strap is not loosened during towing.
1GHA4107

age.
• If the towing vehicle can hardly move, do not forcibly continue
the towing. Contact an Authorized
Kia dealer or a commercial tow
truck service for assistance.
• Tow the vehicle as straight ahead
as possible.
• Keep away from the vehicle dur- ing towing.
CAUTION

cally intended for u se in towing
vehicles . Securely fas ten the
cable or chain to the towing hook provided.

13. Once the wheel lug nuts havebeen tightened, lower the vehicle
fully to the ground and continue to
tighten the lug nuts until they are
fully secured. Tighten the wheel
lug nuts firmly in a “star” pattern.
If you are unsure of the tightness
of the wheel lug nuts, have them
checked at the nearest service
station. The specified tightening
torque is 9~11 kg•m (65-79 lb•ft,
88-107 N•m). Improperly tight-
ened wheel lug nuts could cause
brake pedal vibration while brak-
ing. 14. Reinstall the wheel cover by fit-
ting the boss of the wheel cover
in the groove of the wheel.
To prevent the jack, jack handle,
wheel lug nut, wrench and spare tire
from rattling while the vehicle is in
motion, store them properly.
2GHN409A
CAUTION
Your vehicle has metric threadson the wheel studs and nuts.Make certain during wheelremoval that the s ame nuts
removed are reinstalled - or, if replaced, that nut s with metric
threads and the same chamfer configuration are used.
Ins tallation of a non-metric
thread nut on a metric stud or
vice-ver sa will not secure the
wheel to the hub properly and will damage the stud so that it
mu st be replaced.
Note that most lug nuts do not have metric threads. Be sure to
use extreme care in checking for thread style before in stalling
aftermarket lug nut s or wheels.
If in doubt, cons ult an
Authorized Kia Dealer.
WARNING- Wheel studs
If the studs are damaged, they
may lose their ability to retain
the wheel. Thi s could lead to the
loss of the wheel and a colli-
sion.
WARNING
Check the inflation pressures as
s oon as possible after ins talling
the spare tire. Adjus t it to the
s pecified pre ssure, if necessary.
Refer to Section 8, Specifications .
