TPMS indicator The TPMS indicator comes on and
stays on when there is a problem
with the Tire Pressure Monitoring
System. If this happens, the system
will shut off and no longer monitor
tire pressures. Have the system
checked by an authorized Kia dealer
as soon as possible.
Changing the tire with TPMSIf you have a flat tire, the Low Tire
Pressure indicator will come on.
Replace the flat tire with the compact
spare tire.
Each wheel is equipped with a tire
pressure sensor mounted inside the
tire behind the valve stem. You must
use TPMS specific wheels. It is rec-
ommended that you always have
your tires serviced by an authorized
Kia dealer.
After you replace the flat tire, the Low
Tire Pressure indicator ( ) in the
instrument cluster will stay on. This is
normal; however it is important to
remember that the system is not
monitoring the pressure of the spare
tire. Remember to manually check
the spare tire pressure including
other tires pressure for proper infla-
tion.
Never use a puncture-repairing
agent in a flat tire. If used, you will
have to replace the tire pressure
sensor. Have the flat tire repaired by
an authorized Kia dealer as soon as
possible.
✽ ✽
NOTICE• Do not use any tire sealant if your
vehicle is equipped with Tire
Pressure Monitors. The liquid
sealant can damage the tire pres-
sure monitor sensors.
• The TPMS cannot alert you to
severe and sudden tire damage
caused by external factors. This device complies with Industry
