Distributing the sealant
Immediately drive approximately 3 km
(2 miles) to evenly distribute the
sealant in the tyre. Producing the tyre inflation pres- sure
1) After driving approximately 3 km (2
miles), stop at a suitable location.
2) Connect connection hose 9 of the compressor directly to the tyre
valve.
3) Connect between compressor and the vehicle power outlet using
the cable and connectors.
4) Adjust the tyre inflation pressure to 220 kPa (32 psi). With the igni-
tion switched on, proceed as fol-
lows.
- To increase the inflation pres- sure: Switch on the compressor,
position I. To check the current
inflation pressure setting, briefly
switch off the compressor. - To reduce the inflation pres-
sure: Press the button 8 on the
compressor.
WARNING
Do not let the compressor run for
more than 10 minutes, otherwise
the device will overheat and may
be damaged.
WARNING
The tyre inflation pressure must
be at least 220 kPa (32 psi). If it is
not, do not continue driving. Call
for road side service or towing.
CAUTION
Do not exceed a speed of 60 km/h (35 mph). If possible, donot fall below a speed of 20 km/h (12 mph).
While driving, if you experienceany unusual vibration, ride dis-turbance or noise, reduce yourspeed and drive with caution until you can safely pull off ofthe side of the road.
Call for road side service or tow-ing.
CAUTION
If the inflation pressure is notmaintained, drive the vehicle asecond time, refer to Distributing the sealant. Then repeat steps 1to 4.
Use of the TyreMobilityKit maybe ineffectual for tyre damagelarger than approximately 4 mm (0.16 in).
Please contact the nearest KiaA/S centre, or a workshop thatworks according to Kia repairprocedures with corresponding- ly trained personnel if the tyrecannot be made roadworthywith the TyreMobilityKit.

What to do in an emergency
Notes on the safe use of the
TyreMobilityKit
Park your car at the side of theroad so that you can work with the
TyreMobilityKit away from moving
traffic. Place your warning triangle
in a prominent place to make pass-
ing vehicles aware of your location.
To be sure your vehicle won't move, even when you're on fairly
level ground, always set your park-
ing brake.
Only use the TyreMobilityKit for sealing/inflation passenger car
Tyres. Do not use on motorcycles,
bicycles or any other type of Tyres.
Do not remove any foreign objects- such as nails or screws -that have
penetrated the tyre.
Before using the TyreMobilityKit, read the precautionary advice
printed on the sealant bottle!
Provided the car is outdoors, leave the engine running. Otherwise
operating the compressor may
eventually drain the car battery. Never leave the TyreMobilityKit
unattended whilst it is being used.
Do not leave the compressor run- ning for more than 10 min. at a time
or it may overheat.
Do not use the TyreMobilityKit if the ambient temperature is below -30°C(-22°F).
Do not use the sealing compound after its expiration date which can
be found on the label of the bottle.
Keep away from children. Technical Data

What to do in an emergency
✽✽NOTICE
If the TPMS indicator does not illu-
minate for 3 seconds when the igni-
tion switch is turned to the ON posi-
tion or engine is running, or if it
comes on after blinking for approxi-
mately one minute, we recommend
that you contact an authorized Kia
dealer.Low tyre pressure telltale
When the tyre pressure monitoring
system warning indicators are illumi-
nated, one or more of your tyres issignificantly under-inflated.
If the telltale illuminates, immediately
reduce your speed, avoid hard cor-
nering and anticipate increased stop-
ping distances. You should stop and
check your tyres as soon as possible.Inflate the tyres to the proper pres-
sure as indicated on the vehicle’splacard or tyre inflation pressure label
located on the driver’s side centre pil-
lar outer panel. If you cannot reach a
service station or if the tyre cannot
hold the newly added air, replace the
low pressure tyre with the spare tyre.
Then the Low Tyre Pressure telltale
may flash for approximately one
minute and then remain continuously
illuminated after restarting and about
20 minutes of continuous driving
before you have the low pressure tyre
repaired and replaced on the vehicle.CAUTION
In winter or cold weather, the low tyre pressure telltale may beilluminated if the tyre pressurewas adjusted to the recom- mended tyre inflation pressurein warm weather. It does notmean your TPMS is malfunction- ing because the decreased tem-perature leads to a proportionallowering of tyre pressure.
When you drive your vehiclefrom a warm area to a cold area or from a cold area to a warmarea, or the outside temperatureis greatly higher or lower, you should check the tyre inflationpressure and adjust the tyres tothe recommended tyre inflation pressure.

OWNER MAINTENANCE
The following lists are vehicle checks and
inspections that should be performed by
the owner or an authorised Kia dealer atthe frequencies indicated to help ensure
safe, dependable operation of your vehi-
cle.
Any adverse conditions should be
brought to the attention of your dealer as
soon as possible.
These Owner Maintenance Checks are
generally not covered by warranties and
you may be charged for labour, parts and
lubricants used. Owner maintenance schedule
When you stop for fuel:
Check the engine oil level.
Check coolant level in coolant reser-
voir.
Check the windscreen washer fluid level.
Look for low or under-inflated tyres.
Check the radiator and condenser. Check if the front of the radiator and
condenser are clean and not blocked
with leaves, dirt or insects etc.
If any of the above parts are extremely
dirty or you are not sure of their condi-
tion, take your vehicle to an authorised
Kia dealer.
WARNING - Maintenance
work
Performing maintenance work on a vehicle can be dangerous. You
can be seriously injured whilst
performing some maintenance
procedures. If you lack sufficient
knowledge and experience or the
proper tools and equipment to do
the work, have it done by an
authorised Kia dealer.
Working under the bonnet with the engine running is dangerous.
It becomes even more dangerous
when you wear jewelry or loose
clothing. These can become
entangled in moving parts and
result in injury. Therefore, if you
must run the engine whilst work-
ing under the bonnet, make cer-
tain that you remove all jewelry
(especially rings, bracelets,
watches, and necklaces) and all
neckties, scarves, and similar
loose clothing before gettingnear the engine or cooling fans.
WARNING
Be careful when checking your
engine coolant level when the
engine is hot. Scalding hot coolant
and steam may blow out under
pressure. This could cause burns
or other serious injury.
