Towing service

If emergency towing is necessary, have your vehicle towed by an authorized Kia dealer or a commercial towing service.

Proper lifting and towing procedures are necessary to prevent damage to your vehicle. The use of wheel dollies (1) or a flatbed is recommended.

NOTE

Your AWD vehicle should never be towed with the wheels on the ground. This can cause serious damage to the transmission or the AWD system.

WARNING

Side and curtain air bag

If your vehicle is equipped with side and curtain air bags (if equipped), press the ENGINE START/STOP button in the ACC position when the vehicle is being towed.

The side and curtain air bag may deploy when the ENGINE START/STOP button is in the ON position and the rollover sensor detects the situation as a rollover.

NOTE

If the EPB does not release normally, load your vehicle onto a flatbed tow truck and take it to an authorized Kia dealer to have the system inspected.
