In case of an emergency
•
Before emergency towing, check
that the hook is not broken or dam-
aged.
Fasten the towing cable or chain
securely to the hook.
Do not jerk the hook. Apply steady
and even force.
To avoid damaging the hook, do
not pull from the side or at a verti-
cal angle. Always pull straight
ahead.
CAUTION
Use extreme caution when tow-
ing the vehicle.

Use a towing strap less than 5 m
(16 feet) long. Attach a white or red
cloth (about 30 cm (12 inches)
wide) in the middle of the strap for
easy visibility.
Drive carefully so that the towing
strap is not loosened during tow-
ing.
•
If the towing vehicle can hard-
ly move, do not forcibly con-
tinue the towing. 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.

Automotive readers have rated 2010 Kia Sportage Owners Manual 3.0 out of 5.0 based on 4 product reviews. I think it is good and helpful thanks
The manual and the car is good. Your web site is like your dealers. Intrustive and obnoxious. Keep it simple and butt out of my life.
Excellent manual
