ing.
󳏝 The driver must be in the vehicle
for steering and braking opera

tions when the vehicle is towed
and passengers other than the

on board.
WARNING
Emergency Towing Precautions
Use extreme caution when towing
the vehicle.
󳏝 Avoid sudden starts or erratic
driving maneuvers which would
place excessive stress on the
emergency towing hook and tow
-
ing cable or chain. The hook and
towing cable or chain may break
and cause serious injury or dam
-
age.
󳏝 If the disabled vehicle is unable to
be moved, do not forcibly con
-
tinue the towing. We recommend
that you contact an authorized
Kia dealer or a commercial tow
truck service for assistance.
󳏝 Tow the vehicle as straight ahead
as possible.
󳏝 Keep away from the vehicle
during towing.
Emergency towing precautions
1. While depressing the brake pedal
shift to the N (Neutral) position
and turn the vehicle off. The
POWER button will be in the ACC
position.
2. Release the parking bake.
3. Press the brake pedal with more
force than normal since you will
have reduced brake performance.
4. More steering effort will be
required because the power
steering system will be disabled.
5. If you are driving down a long hill,
the brakes may overheat and
brake performance will be
reduced. Stop often and let the
brakes cool off.
6. If the car is being towed with all
four wheels on the ground, it can
be towed only from the front. Be
sure that the reduction gear is in
neutral. Be sure the steering is
unlocked by placing the POWER
button in the ACC position. A
driver must be in the towed vehi
-
cle to operate the steering and
brakes.
7. To avoid serious damage to the
reduction gear, limit the vehicle
