Notes on the safe use of the
Tire Mobility Kit
• Park your car at the side of the
road so that you can work with the
TMK away from moving traffic.
Place your warning triangle in a
prominent place to make passing
vehicles aware of your location.
• To be sure your vehicle will not
move, even when you're on fairly
level ground, always set your park-
ing brake.
• Only use the TMK for sealing/infla-
tion passenger car tires. Do not
use on motorcycles, bicycles or
any other type of tires.
• Do not remove any foreign objects-
such as nails or screws -that have
penetrated the tire.
• Before using the TMK, read the
precautionary advice printed on
the sealant bottle!
• Provided the car is outdoors, leave
the engine running. Otherwise
operating the compressor may
eventually drain the car battery.
CAUTION - Tire pressure
sensor
When you use the Tire Mobility
Kit including sealant not
approved by Kia, the tire pres-
sure sensors may be damaged
by sealant. The sealant on the
tire pressure sensor and wheel
should be removed when you
replace the tire with a new one
and inspect the tire pressure
sensors in authorized dealer.
