If there is a failed tire sensor, it is
possible for the TPMS to tem-
porarily learn a replacement sen- 1
sor if closely driven to another
vehicle that is also equipped with

The TPMS malfunction indicator
may be illuminated if the vehicle is
moving around electric power sup-
ply cable or radio transmitter such
as near police stations, government
and public offices, broadcasting sta-
tions, military installations, air-
ports, or transmitting tower, etc.
which can interfere with normal
operation of the Tire Pressure
Monitoring System (TPMS).
The TPMS malfunction indicator turns
on and stays on when there is a prob-
lem with the Tire Pressure Monitoring
System. If the system is able to cor-
rectly detect an under-inflation warning
at the same time as system failure then
it will illuminate both the TPMS mal-
function and the low tire pressure tell-
tale e. g. if Front Left sensor fails, the
TPMS malfunction indicator turns on,
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.

temporarily delay the TPMS mal-
function indicator from turning

The TPMS malfunction indicator
may be illuminated if some elec-
tronic devices, such as notebook
computers, are used in the vehicle.
This can interfere with normal
operation of the Tire Pressure
Monitoring System (TPMS).
Have the system checked by an
authorized Kia dealer as soon as pos-
sible to determine the cause of the
problem.
