In case of an emergency
TPMS (Tire Pressure
Monitoring System)
malfunction indicator
The TPMS malfunction indicator
turns on and stays on when there is
a problem with the Tire Pressure
Monitoring System. If the system is
able to correctly detect an under-
inflation warning at the same time as
system failure then it will illuminate
both the TPMS malfunction and the
low tire pressure telltale e.g. if Front
Left sensor fails, the TPMS malfunc-
tion indicator turns, but if Front Right,
Rear Left, or Rear Right tire is under-
inflated, the low tire pressure telltale
may turn on at the same time as the
TPMS malfunction indicator.
Have the system checked by an
authorized KIA dealer as soon as
possible to determine the cause of
the problem.
✽✽
NOTICE
• The TPMS malfunction indicator
may be illuminated if the vehicle is
moving around electric power sup-
ply cable or radio transmitter such
as police stations, government and
public offices, broadcasting sta-
tions, military installations, air-
ports, or transmitting tower, etc.
this can interfere with normal
operation of the Tire Pressure
Monitoring System (TPMS).
• The TPMS malfunction indicator
may be illuminated if snow chains
or some electronic devices, such as
notebook computers, are used in
the vehicle. This can interfere with
normal operation of the Tire
Pressure Monitoring System
(TPMS).

• If there is a failed tire sensor, it is
possible for the TPMS to tem-
porarily learn a replacement sen-
sor if closely driven to another
vehicle that is also equipped with
TPMS. In rare cases, this may
temporarily delay the TPMS mal-
function indicator from turning
on.
