Tires And Wheels - Kia EV6 2024 Owner's Manual

Maintenance

Tires and wheels

For proper maintenance, safety,
and maximum fuel economy,
you must always maintain rec-
ommended tire inflation pres-
sures and stay within the load
limits and weight distribution rec-
ommended for your vehicle.
Recommended cold tire infla-
tion pressures
All tire pressures should be
checked when the tires are cold.
"Cold Tires" means the vehicle
has not been driven for at least
three hours or driven less than
one mile (1.6 km).
Recommended pressures must
be maintained for the best ride,
vehicle handling, and minimum
tire wear.
For recommended inflation pres-
sure, refer to
"Tires and wheels" on
.
page 10-4
All specifications (sizes and pres-
sures) can be found on a label
attached to the driver's side cen-
ter pillar.

WARNING
Tire Underinflation
Inflate your tires consistent with
the instructions provided in this
manual. Severe underinflation
(10 psi (70 kPa) or more) can
lead to severe heat build-up,
causing blowouts, tread separa-
tion and other tire failures that
can result in the loss of vehicle
control. This risk is much higher
on hot days and when driving for
long periods at high speeds.
Failure to maintain specified
pressure may result in excessive
wear, poor handling, reduced
fuel economy, deformation of
tire and/or wheel, harsh ride con-
ditions, possibility for additional
damage from road hazards, or
result in tire failure.
Tire pressure
Always observe the following:
僅 Check tire pressure when the
tires are cold. (After vehicle has
been parked for at least three
hours or hasn't been driven
more than one mile (1.6 km)
since startup.)
僅 Check the pressure of your
spare tire each time you check
the pressure of other tires.
僅 Never overload your vehicle.
Be careful not to overload a
vehicle luggage rack if your
vehicle is equipped with one.
