TPMS (Tire Pressure Monitoring System) Malfunction Indicator

The low tire pressure warning light will illuminate after flashing for approximately one minute when there is a problem with the TPMS. If the system is able to correctly detect a low tire pressure condition and a system malfunction at the same time, both the TPMS malfunction indicator and the low tire pressure warning light will illuminate. For example, if the front left sensor is not functioning, the TPMS malfunction indicator will illuminate, but if the front right, rear left, or rear right tire is under-inflated, the low tire pressure warning light may illuminate simultaneously with the TPMS malfunction indicator.

Have the system checked by an authorized Kia dealer as soon as possible to determine the cause of the problem.

• The TPMS malfunction indicator may illuminate when driving near power cables or radio transmitters, such as police stations, government and public facilities, broadcasting stations, military installations, airports, or transmission towers, etc. This may interfere with the normal operation of the Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS).
• The TPMS malfunction indicator may illuminate when using snow chains or some aftermarket electronic devices, such as a laptop, mobile phone charger, remote starter, or navigation system, etc. in the vehicle. This may interfere with the normal operation of the Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS).
