Driving with the fuel level warning light on or with the fuel level below ‘E’ can cause the engine to misfire and damage the catalytic converter. TPMS (Tire Pressure Monitoring System) Malfunction Indicator* As an added safety feature and to assist the driver, certain vehicles are equipped with a Tyre Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) that illuminates a low tyre pressure telltale when one or more of the tyres is significantly under-inflated. Accordingly, when the low tyre pressure telltale illuminates, stop and check your tyre pressure as soon as possible, and inflate them to the correct pressure. Driving on a significantly under-inflated tyre may cause the tyre to overheat and can lead to tyre failure. Under-inflated tyres can also reduces fuel efficiency and tyre tread life and may affect the vehicle’s handling and stopping ability. The TPMS malfunction indicator is combined with the low tyre pressure telltale. When the system detects a malfunction, the telltale will flash for approximately one minute and then remain continuously illuminated. This sequence will continue upon subsequent vehicle start-ups as long as the malfunction exists. When the malfunction indicator is illuminated, the system may not be able to detect or signal low tyre pressure as intended. TPMS malfunctions may occur for a variety of reasons, including the installation of replacement or alternate tyres or wheels. Contact your nearest Kia dealer for the system to be checked.
