What to do in an emergency
(Continued)
• In cold weather, the low tyre
pressure warning light may
illuminate even if the tyre was
adjusted to the proper pres-
sure. It does not mean your
TPMS in malfunctioning
because the decreased tem-
perature leads to a lowering of
tyre pressure. Check the tyres
and adjust to the recommend-
ed pressure.
• System performance
reduce in the following situa-
tions.
- Improper system setting
- Using tyres on the market
(Original tyre recommended)
- Driving on snowy, slippery,
or unpaved roads
- Hard cornering, rapid acceler-
ating and braking repeatedly
- Driving too slow or fast

- If the vehicle is overloaded
- If a spare tyre or snow chain
is installed
• When filling tyres with more
air, conditions to turn off the
low tyre pressure telltale may
not be met. This is because a
tyre inflator has a margin of
error in performance. The low
tyre pressure telltale will be
turned off if the tyre pressure
may
is above the recommended
tyre inflation pressure.
WARNING
• Driving with an under-inflated
tyre causes the tyre to over-
heat and lead to tyre failure. It
also reduces tyre tread life,
handling of the vehicle, brak-
ing ability, and fuel efficiency,
causing instability of the vehi-
cle. In this case, contact pro-
fessional workshop to main-
tain proper tyre pressure. Kia
recommends to contact an
authorised Kia dealer/service
partner.
• Sudden damage to the tyre
caused by external factors
may not be indicated immedi-
ately. If the vehicle is unstable,
immediately remove your foot
off the accelerator pedal,
move the vehicle to a safe
position for inspection.
