Kia Sorento: If you have a flat tire (with Tire Mobility Kit)The Tire Mobility Kit (TMK) supplied with your Kia Sorento provides a convenient and rapid temporary fix in the event of a flat tire, allowing you to get back on the road quickly before having the assembly thoroughly inspected by an authorized Kia dealer at your earliest convenience.

Portable electric air compressor unit
Specialized tire sealant bottle canister
The TMK is compactly housed either underneath the cargo area floor or within a dedicated storage bag located along the side trim of the liftgate in your Kia Sorento.
For safe operation, carefully read and follow the instructions in this manual before use.
CAUTION
Multiple punctures
When two or more tires are flat, do not use the TMK because the supplied canister of sealant in the TMK is only enough sealant for one flat tire.
WARNING
Tire Sidewall
Do not use the TMK to repair large punctures or damage to the tire sidewalls. In these situations, the tire will not be fully sealed and air will leak from the tire. This can result in tire failure.
WARNING
Post-inflation inspection
Have your tire repaired as soon as possible. The tire may lose air pressure at any time after inflating with the TMK.
WARNING
Speed with Temporary Fix
Do not exceed a speed of 50 mph (80 km/h) when driving with a tire sealed with the TMK.
While driving, if you experience any unusual vibration, ride disturbance, or noise, reduce your speed and drive with caution until you can safely pull off to the side of the road.
