Mounting Instructions
Please remember: Your sticker tag will not work unless it is properly mounted. Your first generation tag may not work efficiently if it is not properly mounted. Improperly mounted K-TAGs inconvenience you as well as the driver behind you. Please follow the mounting instructions provided with your tag.

First generation or Sticker tag Mounting

step1

Clean and Dry

Clean and dry the inside of your windshield. Your windshield temperature during installation must be above 50 degrees for the K-TAG to stick. Use your vehicle's defroster if necessary.

step2

Position

Your K-TAG goes on the inside of your windshield behind the rearview mirror. Your K-TAG will not work if you place it too close to metal or metallic tinting.

step3

Stick

Sticker tag: Peel off the clear backing on the gray side and stick the gray side to the inside of the windshield. Start in the center and smooth the K-TAG against the glass in a circular motion to get a tight seal.

First generation tag: Peel off the backing from the hook-and-loop tape attached to the tag. Press the tag firmly against the windshield.


External Bolt Mounting
If you are mounting your K-TAG on the front license plate holder of your vehicle:
1. Position the tag so that the holes in the tag baseplates correspond to the top holes in the license place area on the front bumper of the vehicle.
2. Insert bolts through the tag baseplate and the holes in the upper portion of the vehicle license plate area.
3. Tighten bolts with a wrench to secure tag to the vehicle.


External Bolt Mounting (with special mounting plate)
If you have a Chevrolet Venture minivan (1997-1999), Chevrolet Lumina minivan (1999 or older), Pontiac Trans Sport Minivan (1999 or older), or the Oldsmobile Silouette minivan (1999 or older), you will receive an external K-TAG that is already mounted on a plexiglass/plastic mounting plate and two extra mounting bolts. Please follow these instructions to mount this plate on your minivan.

In the front of these mininvans, between the hood and the windshield, there is a plastic air ventilation grill.

1. Remove the two thin bolts from the center of the plastic grill.

2. Position the plate so that the holes in the plate, match the holes in the ventilation grill.

3. Insert the bolts provided, through the mounting plate into the ventilation grill.

4. Tighten with a phillips-head screw driver to secure plate and K-TAG to vehicle.

Troubleshooting
If you experience any difficulty when you use your new tag:
1. Ensure that your tag is mounted properly for your vehicle.
2. Check for a metal oxide windshield
3. Call a customer service representative for assistance
(1-800-873-5824)

Lost, Stolen, Damaged or Out of Possession
If the K-TAG is lost, stolen, or no longer in your possession due to the sale of a vehicle, you must notify KTA at once. Notification may be made by telephone, e-mail or mail. Until you notify KTA of any of the aforementioned circumstances, KTA will continue to charge any fees incurred on your account. Once you have properly notified KTA, the tag will be invalidated. The replacement fee for a new tag varies by K-TAG program. If your external or first-generation tag (non-sticker tag) becomes lost, stolen, damaged or is no longer in your possession, you may be charged $34.00 per tag.

At the Toll Plaza
Invalid tag
If the gate does not open, wait for instructions from a Turnpike employee. Do not get out of your vehicle at the toll plaza.

Overheight vehicles
Attention large vehicles — if you see a flashing red light as you enter, stop on the shoulder and wait for instructions from a Turnpike employee. You may be overheight. If you hit a gate, pull out of traffic and wait for further instructions from a Turnpike employee.

If, when you approach the plaza, the dedicated K-TAG lane is closed, please pay close attention to the attendant in the mixed-mode lane. The KTA closes dedicated lanes when there is an emergency to help alert K-TAG customers of problems they may encounter on the roadway (i.e.: inclement weather, accidents, etc.).

How to Read your Statement
Your statement, whether online or printed and mailed, contains four important sections.

First, your address and account number are in the top part of the statement. Please make sure to keep your contact information, including mailing address and phone numbers, up to date. This is important even if you view your statement online.

The second section lists all of your toll charges, fees, and payments for the month. The information here includes the Date, and a column for the Description or Tag Number used for the trip. If the line lists a toll charge, the entry plaza, exit plaza, and class are listed. Fare charts for class 2 and class 5, including listings of plaza numbers and names, are provided on the back of statements that are printed and mailed. There is a complete listing of fare tables for all classes, as well as a chart displaying the various vehicle classifications, which can be accessed online at ksturnpike.com.

The last column will have a two-character explanation code for any adjustments that have been made to your account. Any adjustment codes are explained at the very bottom of the statement along with any special messages that you need to be aware of. This information is highlighted in yellow. Please review the bottom of the statement every month.

Finally, on the last page of the statement, there is a summary of your activity for the month:

  Quantity Amount

Payments

ENDING BALANCE

A CR after a balance means that your account has a prepaid (credit) balance. Any payments are also listed as credits to your account and will be listed with a CR after them. If your ending balance shows a CR, your account is prepaid. If any amount is due, it will be listed at the bottom of this section.
