If you do decide to pull a trailer
Here are some important points if you decide to pull a trailer:
• Consider using a sway control. You can ask a hitch dealer about sway control.
• Do not do any towing with your car during its first 2,000 km (1,200 miles) in order to allow the engine to properly break in. Failure
to heed this caution may result in serious engine or transaxle damage.
• When towing a trailer, we recommend that you consult an authorised Kia dealer on additional requirements such as a towing kit,
etc.
• Always drive your vehicle at a moderate speed (less than 100 km/h (60 mph)).
• On a long uphill grade, do not exceed 70 km/h (45 mph) or the posted towing speed limit, whichever is lower.
• The chart contains important considerations that have to do with weight:
