僅 Tire Pressure Monitoring System (Tpms) Malfunction Indicator; 僅 Tire Replacement With Tpms - Kia Soul 2023 Manual

What to do in an emergency
Then the TPMS malfunction indicator
and the Low Tire Pressure telltale may
turn on and appear after restarting and
about 20 minutes of continuous driving
before you have the low pressure tire
repaired and replaced on the vehicle.
In winter or cold weather, the low tire
pressure telltale may be appeared if the
tire pressure was adjusted to the recom-
mended tire inflation pressure in warm
weather. It does not mean your TPMS is
malfunctioning because the decreased
temperature leads to a proportional low-
ering of tire pressure.
When you drive your vehicle from a
warm area to a cold area or from a cold
area to a warm area, or the outside tem-
perature is greatly higher or lower, you
should check the tire inflation pressure
and adjust the tires to the recommended
tire inflation pressure.
When filling tires with more air, condi-
tions to turn off the low tire pressure tell-
tale may not be met. This is because a
tire inflator has a margin of error in per-
formance. The low tire pressure telltale
will be turned off if the tire pressure is
above the recommended tire inflation
pressure.
WARNING
Low pressure damage
Do not drive on low pressure tires. Sig-
nificantly low tire pressure can cause the
tires to overheat and fail making the
vehicle unstable resulting in increased
braking distances and a loss of vehicle
control.
Tire Pressure Monitoring System
(TPMS) malfunction indicator
The low tire pressure telltale will appear
after it blinks for approximately one min-
6 10
Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)
ute when there is a problem with the
Tire Pressure Monitoring System.
If the system is able to correctly detect
an underinflation warning at the same
time as system failure then it will appear
both the TPMS malfunction and low tire
pressure position telltales e.g. if Front
Left sensor fails, the TPMS malfunction
indicator appears, but if the Front Right,
Rear Left, or Rear Right tire is under-
inflated, the low tire pressure position
telltales may appear together with the
TPMS malfunction indicator.
Have the system checked by an autho-
rized Kia dealer as soon as possible to
determine the cause of the problem.
僅 The TPMS malfunction indicator may
be appeard if the vehicle is moving
around electric power supply cables
or radios transmitters such as at
police stations, government and pub-
lic offices, broadcasting stations, mili-
tary installations, airports, or
transmitting towers, etc. This can
interfere with normal operation of the
Tire Pressure Monitoring System
(TPMS).
僅 The TPMS malfunction indicator may
be appeared if snow chains are used
or some separate electronic devices
such as notebook computer, mobile
charger, remote starter or navigation
etc., are used in the vehicle. This can
interfere with normal operation of the
Tire Pressure Monitoring System
(TPMS).
Tire replacement with TPMS
If you have a flat tire, the Low Tire Pres-
sure telltale will come on. Have the flat
tire repaired by an authorized Kia dealer
as soon as possible or replace the flat
tire with the spare tire.
