Removing the wheel cover using a dedicated removal tool

Step-by-step procedure for detaching the wheel cover using the dedicated tool on the Kia EV2
  1. Always take care to align the wheel cover precisely into its designated mounting position when reinstalling it onto the wheel assembly of your Kia EV2.

  2. The correct orientation and mounting position of the wheel cover depend entirely on the specific structural contours of the alloy or steel wheel. It must be secured in the exact identical rotational position it occupied prior to disassembly.

  3. Exercise caution to avoid installing the cover in an incorrect location or forcing it forcefully into place, as improper installation can fracture plastic tabs, damage surrounding components, or cause the wheel cover to detach unexpectedly while driving.
