sure: Press the button (9) on the

CAUTION
If the inflation pressure is not
maintained, drive the vehicle a
second time, refer
Distributing the sealant. Then
repeat steps 1 to 4.
Use of the TMK may be ineffec-
tual for tire damage larger than
approximately 4 mm (0.16 in).
We recommend that you contact
an authorized Kia dealer if the
tire cannot be made roadworthy
with the Tire Mobility Kit.
WARNING
The tire inflation pressure must
be at least 250 kPa (36 psi/2.5
bar). If it is not, do not continue
driving. Call for road side serv-
ice or towing.
Notes on the safe use of the
Tire Mobility Kit
• Park your car at the side of the
road so that you can work with the
TMK away from moving traffic.
Place your warning triangle in a
prominent place to make passing
vehicles aware of your location.
to
• To be sure your vehicle will not
move, even when you're on fairly
level ground, always set your park-
ing brake.
• Only use the TMK for sealing/infla-
tion passenger car tires. Do not
use on motorcycles, bicycles or
any other type of tires.
• Do not remove any foreign objects-
such as nails or screws -that have
penetrated the tire.
• Before using the TMK, read the
precautionary advice printed on
the sealant bottle!
