What to do in an emergency
Fasten the towing cable or chain
securely to the hook.
Do not jerk the hook. Apply it
steadily and with even force.
To avoid damaging the hook, do
not pull from the side or at a ver -
tical angle. Always pull straight
ahead.
WARNING
Use extreme caution when towing
the vehicle.
Avoid sudden starts or erratic
driving manoeuvres which would
place excessive stress on the
emergency towing hook and tow -
ing cable or chain. The hook and
towing cable or chain may break
and cause serious injury or dam -
age.
If the disabled vehicle is unable to
be moved, do not forcibly con -
tinue the towing. We recommend
that you contact an authorised
Kia dealer or a commercial tow
truck service for assistance.
Tow the vehicle as straight ahead
as possible.
Keep away from the vehicle
during towing.
Use a towing strap less than 5 m
(16 feet) long. Attach a white or
red cloth (about 30 cm (12 inches)
wide) in the middle of the strap
for easy visibility.

Drive carefully so that the towing
strap is not loosened during tow -
ing.
The driver must be in the vehicle
for steering and braking opera -
tions when the vehicle is towed
and passengers other than the
driver must not be allowed to be
on board.
Emergency towing precautions
Turn the ignition switch to ACC so
the steering wheel isn't locked.
Place the transmission shift lever
in N (Neutral).
Release the parking bake.
