•The operation of this vehicle is notrecommended with more than onecompact spare tire in use at thesame time.
WARNING
The compact spare tire is for emer‐gency use only. Do not operate yourvehicle on this compact spare at thespeed over 80 km/h (50 mph). Theoriginal tire should be repaired or re‐placed as soon as possible to avoidfailure of the spare possibly leadingto personal injury or death.
The compact spare should be inflated
to 420 kPa (60 psi).
NOTICE
Check the inflation pressure after in‐
stalling the spare tire. Adjust it to
the specified pressure, as necessary.
When using a compact spare tire, ob‐
serve the following precautions: • Under no circumstances should you
exceed 80 km/h (50 mph); a higherspeed could damage the tire.
• Ensure that you drive slowly enough to avoid all hazards. Any road hazard,
such as a pothole or debris, could se‐
riously damage the compact spare.
• Any continuous road use of this tire could result in tire failure, loss of ve‐
hicle control, and possible personal in‐ jury.
• Do not exceed the vehicle’s maximum load rating or the load-carrying ca‐
pacity shown on the sidewall of the
compact spare tire.
• Avoid driving over obstacles. The compact spare tire diameter is small‐
er than the diameter of a convention‐
al tire and reduces the ground clear‐
ance approximately 2.5 cm (1 inch),
which could result in damage to the
vehicle.
• Do not take the vehicle through an automatic car wash while the com‐
pact spare tire is installed.
• Do not use tire chains on the tempo‐ rary compact tire. Because of the
smaller size, a tire chain will not fit properly. This could damage the vehi‐
cle and result in loss of the chain. • Temporary compact tire should not
be installed on the front axle if the
vehicle must be driven in snow or on
ice.
• Do not use the temporary compact tire on any other vehicle because this
tire has been designed especially for
your vehicle.
• The temporary compact tire tread life is shorter than a regular tire. In‐
spect your temporary compact tire regularly and replace worn compact
spare tires with the same size and
design, mounted on the same wheel.
• The temporary compact tire should not be used on any other wheels, norshould standard tires, snow tires,
wheel covers or trim rings be used
with the temporary compact spare
wheel. If such use is attempted, dam‐
age to these items or other car com‐ ponents may occur.
• Do not use more than one temporary compact tire at a time.
• Do not tow a trailer while the tempo‐ rary compact tire is installed.

What to do in an emergency

Introduction
With the Tire Mobility Kit (TMK) you
stay mobile even after experiencing a tire puncture.
The system of compressor and sealing
compound effectively and comfortably
seals most punctures in a passenger car tire caused by nails or similar ob‐
jects and reinflates the tire.
After you ensured that the tire is prop‐
erly sealed you can drive cautiously on the tire (up to 200 km (120 miles)) at a
max. speed of 80 km/h (50 mph) in or‐
der to reach a vehicle or tire dealer to have the tire replaced. It is possible that some tires, especially
with larger punctures or damage to the
sidewall, cannot be sealed completely.
Air pressure loss in the tire may ad‐ versely affect tire performance.
For this reason, you should avoid
abrupt steering or other driving ma‐
neuvers, especially if the vehicle is heavily loaded or if a trailer is in use.
The TMK is not designed or intended as
a permanent tire repair method and is
to be used for one tire only.This instruction shows you step by step
how to temporarily seal the puncture simply and reliably.
Read the section L

EMERGENCY COMMODITY (IF EQUIPPED)
There are some emergency commodi‐ ties in the vehicle to help you respond
to the emergency situation.
Fire extinguisher
If there is a small fire and you know
how to use the fire extinguisher, take the following steps carefully. 1. Pull the pin at the top of the extin‐ guisher that keeps the handle from
being accidentally pressed.
2. Aim the nozzle toward the base of the fire.
3. Stand approximately 2.5 m (8 ft) away from the fire and squeeze
the handle to discharge the extin‐
guisher. If you release the handle,
the discharge will stop.
4. Sweep the nozzle back and forth at the base of the fire. After the fire
appears to be out, watch it careful‐
ly since it may re-ignite.
First aid kit
There are some items such as scissors,
bandage and adhesive tape etc. in the kit to give first aid to an injured person.
Triangle reflector
Place the triangle reflector on the roadto warn oncoming vehicles during
emergencies, such as when the vehicle
is parked by the roadside due to any problems.
Tire pressure gauge (if
equipped)
Tires normally lose some air in day-to-
day use, and you may have to add a
few pounds of air periodically and it is
not usually a sign of a leaking tire, but
of normal wear. Always check tire pres‐
sure when the tires are cold because
tire pressure increases with tempera‐
ture.
To check the tire pressure, take the fol‐ lowing steps; 1. Unscrew the inflation valve cap that is located on the rim of the
tire.
2. Press and hold the gauge against the tire valve. Some air will escape
as you begin and more will escape
if you don't press the gauge in
firmly.
3. A firm non-leaking push will acti‐ vate the gauge. 4. Read the tire pressure on the
gauge to know whether the tire
pressure is low or high.
5. Adjust the tire pressures to the specified pressure. Refer to L

NOTICE
We recommend that when replacing
tires, use the same originally sup‐
plied with the vehicles.
If not, that affects driving perform‐
ance.
CAUTION
When replacing the tires, recheckand tighten the wheel nuts afterdriving about 50km (31miles) and re‐check after driving about 1,000km(620miles). If the steering wheelshakes or the vehicle vibrates whiledriving, the tire is out of balance.Align the tire balance. If the problemis not solved, contact a professionalworkshop. Kia recommends to visitan authorized Kia dealer/servicepartner.
WARNING
nReplacing tires
(Continued)
(Continued)
To reduce the chance of serious orfatal injuries from an accidentcaused by tire failure or loss of vehi‐cle control:•Replace tires that are worn, showuneven wear, or are damaged.Worn tires can cause loss of brak‐ing effectiveness, steering control,and traction.
•Do not drive your vehicle with toolittle or too much pressure in yourtires. This can lead to uneven wearand tire failure.
•When replacing tires, never mix ra‐dial and bias-ply tires on the samecar. You must replace all tires (in‐cluding the spare) if moving fromradial to bias-ply tires.
•Using tires and wheels other thanthe recommended sizes couldcause unusual handling character‐istics and poor vehicle control, re‐sulting in a serious accident.
(Continued)
(Continued)
•Wheels that do not meet Kia’sspecifications may fit poorly andresult in damage to the vehicle orunusual handling and poor vehiclecontrol.
•The ABS works by comparing thespeed of the wheels. The tire sizeaffects wheel speed. When replac‐ing tires, all 4 tires must use thesame size originally supplied withthe vehicle. Using tires of a differ‐ent size can cause the ABS (Anti-lock Brake System) and ESC (Elec‐tronic Stability Control) to work ir‐regularly.

WARNING
nTire age
Tires degrade over time, even whenthey are not being used.Regardless of the remaining tread,we recommend that tires be re‐placed after approximately six (6)years of normal service. Heat causedby hot climates or frequent highloading conditions can accelerate theaging process. Failure to follow thiswarning can result in sudden tirefailure, which could lead to a loss ofcontrol and an accident involving se‐rious injury or death.
4. Tire ply composition and material
The number of layers or plies of rub‐
ber-coated fabric in the tire. Tire man‐ ufacturers also must indicate the ma‐
terials in the tire, which include steel,
nylon, polyester, and others. The letter "R" means radial ply construction; the
letter "D" means diagonal or bias ply
construction; and the letter "B" means belted-bias ply construction.
5. Maximum permissible inflation
pressure
This number is the greatest amount of
air pressure that should be put in the
tire. Do not exceed the maximum per‐ missible inflation pressure. Refer to the
Tire and Loading Information label for
recommended inflation pressure.
6. Maximum load rating
This number indicates the maximum
load in kilograms and pounds that can be carried by the tire. When replacing
the tires on the vehicle, always use a
tire that has the same load rating as the factory installed tire.
7. Uniform tire quality grading
Quality grades can be found where ap‐
plicable on the tire sidewall between tread shoulder and maximum section
width.
For example:TREADWEAR 200TRACTION AA
TEMPERATURE A
Tread wear
The tread wear grade is a comparative
rating based on the wear rate of the tire when tested under controlled con‐
ditions on a specified government test
course. For example, a tire graded 150 would wear one-and-a-half times (1½)
as well on the government course as a
tire graded 100.
The relative performance of tires de‐ pends upon the actual conditions of
their use, however, and may depart sig‐
nificantly from the norm due to varia‐
tions in driving habits, service practices and differences in road characteristics
and climate.
These grades are molded on the side-
walls of passenger vehicle tires. The tires available as standard or optional
equipment on your vehicle may vary
with respect to grade.
Traction - AA, A, B & C
The traction grades, from highest to lowest, are AA, A, B and C. Those
grades represent the tire’s ability to
stop on wet pavement as measured under controlled conditions on specified
government test surfaces of asphalt
and concrete. A tire marked C may have poor traction performance.
