TOWING
Towinþ service
Iý emerþency towinþ is necessary, we
recommend havinþ it done by an au‐
thorized Kia dealer or a commercial
tow-truck service. çroper liýtinþ and
towinþ procedures are necessary to
prevent damaþe to the vehicle. The use
oý wheel dollies (1) or ýlatbed is recom‐
mended.
It is acceptable to tow the vehicle with
the rear wheels on the þround (without
dollies) and the ýront wheels oýý the
þround.
Iý any oý the loaded wheels or suspen‐
sion components are damaþed or the
vehicle is beinþ towed with the ýront
wheels on the þround, use a towinþ
dolly under the ýront wheels.
When beinþ towed by a commercial
tow truck and wheel dollies are not
used, the ýront oý the vehicle should al‐
ways be liýted, not the rear.
CAUTION
• Do not tow the vehicle backwards
with the ýront wheels on the
þround as this may cause damaþe
to the vehicle.
• Do not tow with slinþ-type equip‐
ment. Use wheel liýt or ýlatbed
equipment.
When towinþ your vehicle in an emer‐
þency without wheel dollies :
1. Set the iþnition switch in the ACC
position.
2. çlace the transaxle shiýt lever in N
(Neutral).
3. Release the parkinþ brake.
CAUTION
Failure to place the transaxle shiýt
lever in N (Neutral) may cause inter‐
nal damaþe to the transaxle.
