Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)
CAUTION
僅 The TPMS malfunction indicator may
blink for approximately 1 minute and
then remain continuously appeared if
the vehicle is moving around electric
power supply cables or radios trans
-
mitter such as at police stations, gov
-
ernment and public offices,
broadcasting stations, military instal

remote starter or navigation etc., are
used in the vehicle.
This can interfere with normal opera
-
tion of the Tire Pressure Monitoring
System (TPMS).
NOTICE
If there is a malfunction with the TPMS,
the low tire pressure position telltale will
not be displayed even though the vehi

cle has an underinflated tire.
Changing a tire with TPMS
If you have a flat tire, the low Tire Pres

In this case, have the system checked by

We recommend that you use the sealant
approved by Kia.
The sealant on the tire pressure sensor
and wheel shall be eliminated when you
replace the tire with a new one.
Each wheel is equipped with a tire pres

sure sensor mounted inside the tire
behind the valve stem. You must use
TPMS specific wheels. Have your tires
serviced by a professional workshop. Kia

You may not be able to identify a low tire
by simply looking at it. Always use a
good quality tire pressure gauge to mea
-
sure the tire's inflation pressure. Please
note that a tire that is hot (from being
driven) will have a higher pressure mea
-
surement than a tire that is cold (from
sitting stationary for at least 3 hours and
driven less than 1 mile (1.6 km) during
that 3 hour period).
