What to do in an emergency
Towing
If emergency towing is necessary,
we recommend having it done by an
authorized Kia dealer or a commer-
cial tow-truck service.
Towing service
OON068016NR
Proper lifting and towing proce-
dures are necessary to prevent
damage to the vehicle. The use of
wheel dollies (1) or flatbed is recom-
mended.
On Front Wheel Drive (FWD) vehi-
cles, it is acceptable to tow the vehi-
cle with the rear wheel on the
ground (without dollies) and the
front wheels off the ground. If any
of the loaded wheels or suspension
components are damaged or the
vehicle is being towed with the front
wheels on the ground, use a towing
dolly under the front wheels. When
being towed by a commercial tow
6 26
truck and wheel dollies are not used,
the front of the vehicle should
always be lifted, not the rear.
On All Wheel Drive (AWD) vehicles,
your vehicle must be towed with a
wheel lift and dollies or flatbed
equipment with all the wheels off
the ground.
WARNING
Side and curtain Air bag
If your vehicle is equipped with side
and curtain air bag, set the ENGINE
START/STOP button to ACC position
when the vehicle is being towed.
The side and curtain air bag may
deploy when the ENGINE START/
STOP button to ON position and the
rollover sensor detects the situation
as a rollover.
NOTICE
If the EPB does not release normal-
ly, take your vehicle to an author-
ized Kia dealer by loading the vehi-
cle on a flatbed tow truck and have
the system checked.
