TOWINGIf emergency towing is necessary, we
recommend having it done by an
Authorized Kia Dealer or a competent
tow-truck service. Proper lifting and
towing procedures are necessary to
prevent damage to the vehicle. State and
local laws applicable to towing vehicles
must be followed.

As a general rule, towed vehicles should
be pulled with the driving wheels off the
ground. If excessive damage or other
conditions prevent towing the vehicle
with the driving wheels off the ground,
use wheel dollies.
With either an automatic or manual
transaxle:
1. Set the ignition switch in the ACC
position;
2. Place the shift lever in N (Neutral);
3. Release the parking brake.

✻
NOTICE
Do not tow the vehicle backward
with the front wheels on the
ground. This may cause internal
damage to the transaxle.✻
NOTICE
Do not tow with sling-type
equipment. Use wheel lift or flatbed
equipment.

CAUTION
Do not use the hooks under the
front or rear of the vehicle for
towing purposes. These hooks are
designed ONLY for transport
tiedown. If the tie-dwn hooks are
used for towing, the front/rear
bumper will be damaged and the
vehicle may break free from the
tow vehicle.

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
temporarily towed using a cable or chain
secured to the emergency towing hook.
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
distance and at low speeds. Also, the
wheels, axles, power train, steering and
brakes must all be in good condition. Do not try to tow your vehicle when
the wheels are stuck in mud, sand or
similar substances that prevent the
vehicle from being 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
frequently.

 Before emergency towing, check that
the 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.
6-17
✻
NOTICE
• Attach a towing strap to the tow
hook.
 Using a portion of the vehicle
other than the tow hooks for
towing may damage the body of
your vehicle.
 Use only a cable or chain
specifically intended for use in
towing vehicles. Securely fasten
the cable or chain to the towing
hook provided.
CAUTION
Use extreme caution when towing
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.
 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
during towing.

WHEN YOUR VEHICLE IS
BEING TOWED BY ANOTHER
VEHICLE OTHER THAN A
TOW TRUCK (IN CASE OF AN
EMERGENCY) Turn the ignition switch to ACC so
the steering wheel isn’t locked.
 Place the transaxle shift lever in N
(Neutral).
 Release the parking bake.
 Vehicle equipped with automatic
transaxle should not exceed 45km/h
(28 mph) and should not be towed
more than 80km (50 miles).  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 steering 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.
TIPS FOR TOWING A STUCK
VEHICLEThe following methods are effective
when your vehicle is stuck in mud, sand
or similar substances that prevent the
vehicle from being driven out under its
own power.
 Remove the soil and sand, etc. from
the front and the back of the tires.
 Place a stone or wood under the tires.
IN CASE OF EMERGENCY
6-18
✻
NOTICE
To prevent internal damage to the
transaxle, never tow your vehicle
from the rear (backwards) with all
four tires in contact with the
surface.
