What to do in an emergency
- Road warning
  When in an emergency situation occurs while driving or when you park by the edge of the roadway, you must alert approaching or passing vehicles to be careful as they pass. For this, you should use the hazard warning flasher.
- In case of an emergency while driving
  If an emergency situation occurs while driving, stay calm and take the following steps.
- If the engine will not start
- Emergency starting
  When the vehicle will not start because of low battery power, you may need to jump start the vehicle.
- If the engine overheats
  If your temperature gauge indicates overheating, you experience a loss of power, or hear loud pinging or knocking, the engine will probably be too hot.
- Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)
  The tire pressure monitoring system detects the pressure of vehicle's tires and displays it on the LCD display.
- If you have a flat tire
  If you have a flat tire, you can change the flat tire to a spare tire using tools.
- Towing
  If emergency towing is necessary, we recommend having it done by an authorized Kia dealer or a commercial tow-truck service.
  - Towing without Wheel Dollies when using a Towing Service
  - Using removable towing hook
  - Emergency towing
    If towing service is not available in an emergency, your vehicle may be temporarily towed using a cable or chain secured to the emergency towing hook under the front (or rear) of the vehicle.
