• For safe driving, please note that
the TPMS is not a substitute for
proper tire maintenance. It is the
driver’s responsibility to maintain
correct tire pressure, and all tires
should be checked monthly to
maintain the recommended pres‐
sure.
• The warning light may illuminate if
the system is not set in required
situations.
• In cold weather, the low tire pres‐
sure warning light may illuminate
even if the tire was adjusted to
the proper pressure. It does not
mean your TPMS is malfunctioning
because the decreased tempera‐
ture leads to a lowering of tire
pressure. Check the tires and ad‐
just to the recommended pressure.
• System performance may reduce
in the following situations.
- Improper system setting
- Using tires on the market (Origi‐
nal tire recommended)
- Driving on snowy, slippery, or
unpaved roads
(Continued)
(Continued)
- Hard cornering, rapid accelerat‐
ing and braking repeatedly
- Driving too slow or fast
- If the vehicle is overloaded
- If a spare tire or snow chain is
installed
• When filling tires with more air,
conditions to turn off the low tire
pressure telltale may not be met.
This is because a tire inflator has a
margin of error in performance.
The low tire pressure telltale will
be turned off if the tire pressure is
above the recommended tire infla‐
tion pressure.
WARNING
• Driving with an under-inflated tire
causes the tire to overheat and
lead to tire failure. It also reduces
tire tread life, handling of the vehi‐
cle, braking ability, and fuel effi‐
ciency, causing instability of the
vehicle. In this case, contact pro‐
fessional workshop to maintain
proper tire pressure. Kia recom‐
mends to contact an authorized
Kia dealer/service partner.
• Sudden damage to the tire caused
by external factors may not be in‐
dicated immediately. If the vehicle
is unstable, immediately remove
your foot off the accelerator ped‐
al, move the vehicle to a safe posi‐
tion for inspection.
Tire Pressure Monitoring
System malfunction
The TPMS malfunction indicator will il‐
luminate ( ) after it blinks for approx‐
imately 1 minute when there is a prob‐
lem with the Tire Pressure Monitoring
System. This sequence will continue
upon subsequent vehicle start-ups as
long as the malfunction exists.
