Changing a tyre with TPMS
If you have a flat tyre, the Low Tyre
Pressure and Position telltales will
come on. Have the flat tyre repaired
by an authorised KIA dealer as soon
as possible or replace the flat tyre
with the spare tyre.
CAUTION
NEVER use a puncture-repair-
ing agent to repair and/or inflate
a low pressure tyre. The tyre
sealant can damage the tyre
pressure sensor. If used, you
will have to replace the tyre
pressure sensor.
Each wheel is equipped with a tyre
pressure sensor mounted inside the
tyre behind the valve stem. You must
use TPMS specific wheels. It is rec-
ommended that you always have
your tyres serviced by an authorised
KIA dealer.
Even if you replace the low pressure
tyre with the spare tyre, the Low Tyre
Pressure and Position telltales will
remain on until the low pressure tyre
is repaired and placed on the vehi-
cle.
After you replace the low pressure
tyre with the spare tyre, the TPMS
malfunction indicator may illuminate
after a few minutes because the
TPMS sensor mounted on the spare
wheel is not initiated.
Once the low pressure tyre is rein-
flated to the recommended pressure
and installed on the vehicle or the
TPMS sensor mounted on the
replaced spare wheel is initiated by
an authorised KIA dealer, the TPMS
malfunction indicator and the low
tyre pressure and position telltales
will extinguish within a few minutes of
driving.
If the indicators are not extinguished
after a few minutes of driving, please
visit an authorised KIA dealer.
What to do in an emergency
CAUTION
If a original mounted tyre is
replaced with the spare tyre, the
TPMS sensor on the replaced
spare wheel should be initiated
and the TPMS sensor on the
original mounted wheel should
be deactivated. If the TPMS sen-
sor on the original mounted
wheel located in the spare tyre
carrier still activates, the tyre
pressure monitoring system
may not operate properly. Have
the tyre with TPMS serviced or
replaced by an authorised KIA
dealer.
