CAUTION :
Your vehicle has metric threads on the
wheel studs and nuts. During wheel
removal, make certain that the same
nuts removed are reinstalled - or, if
replaced, that nuts with metric
threads and the same configuration
are used. Installation of a non-metric
thread nut on a metric stud or vice-
versa will not secure the wheel to the
hub properly and will damage the
stud so that it must be replaced. Note
that most U.S. lug nuts do not have
metric threads. Be sure to use extreme
care in checking for thread style
before installing aftermarket lug nuts
or wheels. If in doubt, consult an
Authorized Kia Dealer. Damaged
studs may result in wheel loss and
personal injury.
WARNING - WHEEL STUDS
If the studs are damaged, they
may lose their ability to retain the
wheel. This could lead to the loss
of the wheel and a collision.
NOTICE :
Check the inflation pressures as soon
as possible after installing the spare
tire. Adjust it to the specified pressure,
if necessary.
To prevent the jack, jack handle, wheel
lug nut, wrench and spare tire from
rattling while the vehicle is in motion,
store them properly.
