What to do in an emergency
12.
Reinstall the wheel  cap by fitting
the boss of  the wheel cap  in the
groove  of the  wheel,  hitting  the
center of the wheel cap with your
hand (If equipped).
CAUTION
WARNING - Wheel studs
If the  studs  are damaged,  they
may  lose their  ability  to  retain
the wheel.This could lead to the
loss of the wheel and a collision
resulting in serious injuries.
Your vehicle has  metric threads
on  the  wheel  studs  and  nuts.
Make
certain
during
wheel
removal that the same  nuts that
were  removed are  reinstalled  -
or,  if  replaced,  that   nuts  with
metric  threads   and  the   same
chamfer configuration are used.
Installation    of    a   non-metric
thread  nut on  a  metric stud  or
vice-versa  will  not   secure  the
wheel  to the  hub  properly  and
will damage  the  stud so  that it
must be replaced.
If you have a  tire gauge, remove the
valve cap and check the air pressure.
If the  pressure is lower  than recom-
mended, drive  slowly to the  nearest
service station and inflate to the  cor-
rect pressure. If  it is too high,  adjust
it  until it  is  correct. Always  reinstall
the   valve   cap  after   checking   or
adjusting tire  pressure. If  the cap  is
not replaced,  air  may leak  from the
tire.  If  you  lose   a  valve  cap,  buy
another and install it as soon as pos-
sible.
To  prevent   the  jack,   jack  handle,
wheel lug nut  wrench and spare  tire
from  rattling  while the  vehicle  is  in
motion, store them properly.
WARNING - Inadequate
spare tire pressure
Note that  most lug  nuts do  not
have metric threads.  Be sure to
use  extreme  care   in  checking
for thread style before installing
aftermarket lug  nuts or  wheels.
If  in  doubt, consult  an  author-
ized KIA dealer.
Check the inflation pressures as
soon as possible after installing
the  spare  tire.  Adjust  it  to  the
specified pressure,  if necessary.
Refer to “Tires and wheels”  sec-
tion 8.
After   you  have   changed   wheels,
always secure the flat tire in its place
and return the jack  and tools to their
proper storage locations.
