If you do decide to pull a trailer
Here are some important points if you
decide to pull a trailer:
Consider using a sway control.You can
ask a hitch dealer about sway control.
Do not do any towing with your car dur-
ing its first 2,000 km (1,200 miles) in
order to allow the engine to properly
break in. Failure to heed this caution
may result in serious engine or
transaxle damage.
When towing a trailer, be sure to con-
sult an authorized KIA dealer for fur-
ther information on additional require-
ments such as a towing kit, etc.
Always drive your vehicle at a moder-
ate speed (less than 100 km/h / 60
mph).
On a long uphill grade, do not exceed
70 km/h (45 mph) or the posted towing
speed limit, whichever is lower.

ations that have to do with weight:
