What to do in an emergency
to overheat and can lead to tire failure.
Under-inflation also reduces fuel effi-
ciency and tire tread life, and may affect
the vehicle's handling and stopping abil-
ity.
Please note that the TPMS is not a sub-
stitute for proper tire maintenance, and
it is the driver's responsibility to maintain
correct tire pressure, even if under-infla-
tion has not reached the level to trigger
illumination of the TPMS low tire pres-
sure telltale.
Your vehicle has also been equipped
with a TPMS malfunction indicator to
indicate when the system is not operat-
ing properly. The TPMS malfunction
indicator is combined with the low tire
pressure telltale. When the system
detects a malfunction, the telltale will
flash for approximately one minute and
then remain continuously illuminated.
This sequence will continue upon subse-
quent vehicle start-ups as long as the
malfunction exists. When the malfunc-
tion indicator is illuminated, the system
may not be able to detect or signal low
tire pressure as intended. TPMS mal-
functions may occur for a variety of rea-
sons, including the installation of
replacement or alternate tires or wheels
on the vehicle that prevent the TPMS
from functioning properly. Always check
the TPMS malfunction telltale after
replacing one or more tires or wheels on
your vehicle to ensure that the replace-
ment or alternate tires and wheels allow
the TPMS to continue to function prop-
erly.
NOTICE
If the TPMS, Low Tire Pressure indicator
does not appear for 3 seconds when the
ENGINE START/STOP button is turned
to the ON, or engine is running, or if they
Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)
remain appeared after coming on for
approximately 3 seconds, take your
vehicle to your nearest authorized Kia
dealer and have the system checked.
Low tire pressure telltale
WBH-11
Low tire pressure position information
OCK060051L
When the tire pressure monitoring sys-
tem warning indicators are appeared,
one or more of your tires is significantly
under-inflated.
If the telltale appears, immediately
reduce your speed, avoid hard cornering
and anticipate increased stopping dis-
tances. You should stop and check your
tires as soon as possible.
Inflate the tires to the proper pressure as
indicated on the vehicle's placard or tire
inflation pressure label located on the
driver's side center pillar outer panel. If
you cannot reach a service station or if
the tire cannot hold the newly added air,
replace the low pressure tire with the
spare tire.
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
