Driving Your Vehicle

If you decide to tow a trailer

~1min read

The following are important points if you decide to tow a trailer:

  • Consider using a sway control device. You can ask the hitch dealer about sway control.
  • Do not tow a trailer during the first 2000 km (1200 miles) to ensure proper engine break-in. Ignoring this warning may result in serious engine or transmission damage.
  • When towing a trailer, it is recommended to consult an authorized Kia dealer about additional requirements, such as a towing kit, etc.
  • Always drive at a moderate speed (less than 100 km/h).
  • On long uphill grades, do not exceed 70 km/h or the towing speed limit, whichever is lower.
  • The chart contains important considerations related to weight:

M/T: Manual transaxle
