Maintenance Tires and wheels
僅 Remember to check the pressure of
your spare tire. Kia recommends that
you check the spare every time you
check the pressure of the other tires
on your vehicle.
CAUTION
僅 Underinflation also results in exces
-
sive wear, poor handling and reduced
fuel economy. Wheel deformation
also is possible. Keep your tire pres
-
sures at the proper levels. If a tire fre
-
quently needs refilling, have the
system checked by a professional
workshop. Kia recommends to visit an
authorized Kia dealer/service partner.
僅 Overinflation produces a harsh ride,
excessive wear at the center of the
tire tread, and a greater possibility of
damage from road hazards.
僅 Warm tires normally exceed recom
-
mended cold tire pressures by 28 to
41 kPa (4 to 6 psi). Do not release air
from warm tires to adjust the pressure
or the tires will be underinflated.
僅 Be sure to reinstall the tire inflation
valve caps. Without the valve cap, dirt
or moisture could get into the valve
core and cause air leakage. If a valve
cap is missing, install a new one as
soon as possible.
僅 Always observe the following:
- 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 1.6
km (one mile) since startup.)
- Check the pressure of your spare
tire each time you check the pres
-
sure of other tires.
- Never overload your vehicle. Be
careful not to overload a vehicle
luggage rack if your vehicle is
equipped with one.
- Worn, old tires can cause accidents.
If your tread is badly worn, or if
your tires have been damaged,
replace them.

irregular wear develops.
