WARNING - Ignition key

(smart key)

Leaving children unattended in a

vehicle with the Ignition key (smart

key) is dangerous even if the key is

not in the ignition switch or start

button is ACC or ON position.

Children copy adults and they could

place the key in the ignition switch

or press the start button. The

Ignition key (smart key) would

enable children to operate power

windows or other controls, or even

make the vehicle move, which could

result in serious bodily injury or

even death. Never leave the keys in

your vehicle with unsupervised chil-

dren, when the engine is running.

Type C

Immobilizer system (if equipped)

To remove the mechanical key, press and

hold the release button and remove the

mechanical key.

Your vehicle may be equipped with an

electronic engine immobilizer system to

reduce the risk of unauthorized vehicle

use.

To reinstall the mechanical key, put the

key into the hole and push it until a click

sound is heard.

Your immobilizer system is comprised of

a small transponder in the ignition key

and electronic devices inside the vehicle.

With the immobilizer system, whenever

you insert your ignition key into the igni-

tion switch and turn it to ON, it checks

and determines and verifies if the ignition

key is valid or not.

WARNING

Use only Kia original parts for the

ignition key in your vehicle. If an

aftermarket key is used, the ignition

switch may not return to ON after

START. If this happens, the starter

will continue to operate causing

damage to the starter motor and

possible fire due to excessive cur-

rent in the wiring.

If the key is determined to be valid, the

engine will start.

If the key is determined to be invalid, the

engine will not start.

Features of your vehicle

To activate the immobilizer system:

CAUTION

Turn the ignition key to the OFF position.

The immobilizer system activates auto-

matically. Without a valid ignition key for

your vehicle, the engine will not start.

Do not put metal accessories near

the ignition switch. Metal acces-

sories may interrupt the transpon-

der signal and may prevent the

engine from being started.

Do not change, alter or adjust the

immobilizer system because it

could cause the immobilizer sys-

tem to malfunction. We recommend

that the system be serviced by an

authorized Kia dealer.

To deactivate the immobilizer sys-

tem:

Malfunctions caused by improper

alterations, adjustments or modifi-

cations to the immobilizer system

are not covered by your vehicle

manufacturer warranty.

Insert the ignition key into the key cylin-

der and turn it to the ON position.

✽

NOTICE

If you need additional keys or lose your

keys, we recommend that you consult an

authorized Kia dealer.

WARNING

In order to prevent theft of your vehi-

cle, do not leave spare keys any-

where in your vehicle. Your immobi-

lizer password is a customer unique

password and should be kept confi-

dential. Do not leave this number

anywhere in your vehicle.

CAUTION

The transponder in your ignition

key is an important part of the

immobilizer system. It is designed

to give years of trouble-free service,

however you should avoid expo-

sure to moisture, static electricity

and rough handling. Immobilizer

system malfunction could occur.

✽

NOTICE

When starting the engine, do not use the

key with other immobilizer keys around.

Otherwise the engine may not start or

WARNING - Refueling dan-

gers

Use only approved portable plas-

tic fuel containers designed to

carry and store gasoline.

• Do not get back into a vehicle

once you have begun refueling

since you can generate static

electricity by touching, rubbing

or sliding against any item or fab-

ric (polyester, satin, nylon, etc.)

capable of producing static elec-

tricity. Static electricity discharge

can ignite fuel vapors resulting in

rapid burning. If you must re-

enter the vehicle, you should

once again eliminate potentially

dangerous static electricity dis-

charge by touching a metal part

of the vehicle, away from the fuel

filler neck, nozzle or other gaso-

line source.

Automotive fuels are flammable

materials. When refueling, please

note the following guidelines care-

fully. Failure to follow these guide-

lines may result in severe personal

injury, severe burns or death by fire

or explosion.

• Do not use cellular phones while

refueling. Electric current and/or

electronic interference from cel-

lular phones can potentially

ignite fuel vapors causing a fire.

• When refueling, always shut the

engine off. Sparks produced by

electrical components related to

the engine can ignite fuel vapors

causing a fire. Once refueling is

complete, check to make sure the

filler cap and filler door are

securely closed, before starting

the engine.

• Read and follow all warnings at

the gas station facility.

• Before refueling note the location

of the Emergency Gasoline Shut-

Off, if available, at the gas station

facility.

• Before touching the fuel nozzle,

you should eliminate potentially

dangerous static electricity dis-

charge by touching another metal

part of the vehicle, a safe dis-

tance away from the fuel filler

neck, nozzle, or other gas source.

• DO NOT use matches or a lighter

and DO NOT SMOKE or leave a lit

cigarette in your vehicle while at

a gas station especially during

refueling. Automotive fuel is

highly flammable and can, when

ignited, result in fire.

• When

using

an

approved

portable fuel container, be sure to

place the container on the

ground prior to refueling. Static

electricity discharge from the

container can ignite fuel vapors

causing a fire. Once refueling has

begun, contact with the vehicle

should be maintained until the

filling is complete.

CAUTION

• If a fire breaks out during refuel-

ing, leave the vicinity of the vehi-

cle, and immediately contact the

manager of the gas station and

then contact the local fire depart-

ment. Follow any safety instruc-

tions they provide.

• Make sure to refuel your vehicle

according to the "Fuel require-

ments" suggested in section 1.

• If the fuel filler cap requires

replacement, use only a genuine

Kia cap or the equivalent speci-

fied for your vehicle. An incorrect

fuel filler cap can result in a seri-

ous malfunction of the fuel sys-

tem or emission control system.

• Do not spill fuel on the exterior

surfaces of the vehicle. Any type

of fuel spilled on painted surfaces

may damage the paint.

Electronic power steering

(if equipped)

Tilt steering (if equipped)

• The steering effort is high immediate-

ly after turning the ignition switch on.

This happens as the system performs

the EPS system diagnostics. When the

diagnostics is completed, the steering

wheel will return to its normal condi-

tion.

• A click noise may be heard from the

EPS relay after the ignition switch is

turned to the ON or LOCK position.

• Motor noise may be heard when the

vehicle is at a stop or at a low driving

speed.

• If the Electric Power Steering System

does not operate normally, the warn-

ing light will illuminate on the instru-

ment cluster. The steering wheel may

become difficult to control or operate

abnormally. We recommend that you

contact an authorized Kia dealer.

• The steering effort increases if the

steering wheel is rotated continuously

when the vehicle is not in motion.

However, after a few minutes, it will

return to its normal conditions.

• When you operate the steering wheel

in low temperature, abnormal noise

could occur. If temperature rises, the

noise will disappear. This is a normal

condition.

Tilt steering allows you to adjust the

steering wheel before you drive. You can

also raise it to give your legs more room

when you exit and enter the vehicle.

Power steering uses the motor to assist

you in steering the vehicle. If the engine

is off or if the power steering system

becomes inoperative, the vehicle may

still be steered, but it will require

increased steering effort.

The steering wheel should be positioned

so that it is comfortable for you to drive,

while permitting you to see the instru-

ment panel warning lights and gauges.

The motor driven power steering is con-

trolled by the power steering control unit

which senses the steering wheel torque,

steering wheel position and vehicle

speed to command the motor.

WARNING

• Never adjust the angle of the

steering wheel while driving. You

may lose steering control and

cause severe personal injury,

death or accidents.

The steering wheel becomes heavier as

the vehicle’s speed increases and

becomes lighter as the vehicle’s speed

decreases for better control of the steer-

ing wheel.

• After adjusting, push the steering

wheel both up and down to be

certain it is locked in position.

Should you notice any change in the

effort required to steer during normal

vehicle operation, we recommend that

the system be checked by an authorized

Kia dealer.

Low tire pressure indicator

/ TPMS malfunction indica-

tor (if equipped)

WARNING - Low tire pres-

sure

Significantly low tire pressure

makes the vehicle unstable and can

contribute to loss of vehicle control

and increased braking distances.

The low tire pressure telltale comes on

for 3 seconds after the ignition switch is

turned to the "ON" position.

This indicator will illuminate when the

engine enters the Idle Stop mode of the

ISG (Idle Stop and Go) system.

The low tire pressure telltale illuminates

when one or more of your tires is signifi-

cantly underinflated.

When the automatic starting occurs, the

auto stop indicator on the cluster will

blink for 5 seconds.

Continued driving on low pressure

tires will cause the tires to overheat

and fail.

The low tire pressure telltale will illumi-

nate after it blinks for approximately one

minute when there is a problem with the

Tire Pressure Monitoring System.

For more details, refer to the ISG (Idle

Stop and Go) system in chapter 5.

WARNING - Safe stopping

• The TPMS cannot alert you to

severe and sudden tire damage

caused by external factors.

In this case, we recommend that you

have the vehicle inspected by an author-

ized Kia dealer as soon as possible.

✽

NOTICE

When the engine automatically starts by

the ISG system, some warning lights

(ABS, ESC, ESC OFF, EPS or Parking

brake warning light) may turn on for a

few seconds.

This happens because of the low battery

voltage. It does not mean the system is

malfunctioning.

• If you feel any vehicle instability,

immediately take your foot off the

accelerator, apply the brakes

gradually and with light force,

and slowly move to a safe posi-

tion off the road.

If the warning light illuminates while driv-

ing, reduce vehicle speed immediately

and stop the vehicle. Avoid hard braking

and overcorrecting at the steering wheel.

Inflate the tires to the proper pressure as

indicated on the vehicle’s tire information

placard.

supplementary function only. The

operation of the rear parking assist

system can be affected by several

factors (including environmental

conditions). It is the resconsibility

of the driver to always check the

area behind the vehicle before and

while backing up.

• The sensing distance while the rear

parking assist system is in operation is

approximately 120 cm (47 in.).

• When more than two objects are

sensed at the same time, the closest

one will be recognized first.

Sensors

OTA040046

Types of warning sound

The rear parking assist system assists

the driver during backward movement of

the vehicle by chiming if any object is

sensed within a distance of 120 cm (47

in.) behind the vehicle. This system is a

supplemental system and it is not intend-

ed to nor does it replace the need for

extreme care and attention of the driver.

The sensing range and objects

detectable by the back sensors are limit-

ed. Whenever backing-up, pay as much

attention to what is behind you as you

would in a vehicle without a rear parking

assist system.

• When an object is 120 cm to 81 cm (47

in. to 32 in.) from the rear bumper:

Buzzer beeps intermittently.

• When an object is 80 cm to 41 cm (31

in. to 16 in.) from the rear bumper:

cautions

1. The sensor is stained with foreign mat-

ter such as snow or water. (The sens-

ing range will return to normal when

removed.)

The rear parking assist system may

not operate properly when:

• The rear parking assist system may

not sound sequentially depending on

the speed and shapes of the objects

detected.

1. Moisture is frozen to the sensor. (It will

operate normally when the moisture

has been cleared.)

2. Outside air temperature is extremely

hot or cold.

• The rear parking assist system may

malfunction if the vehicle bumper

height or sensor installation has been

modified or damaged. Any non-factory

installed equipment or accessories

may also interfere with the sensor per-

formance.

2. The sensor is covered with foreign

matter, such as snow or water, or the

sensor cover is blocked. (It will operate

normally when the material is removed

or the sensor is no longer blocked.)

The following objects may not be rec-

ognized by the sensor:

1. Sharp or slim objects such as ropes,

chains or small poles.

3. Driving on uneven road surfaces

(unpaved roads, gravel, bumps, gradi-

ent).

2. Objects which tend to absorb the sen-

sor frequency such as clothes, spongy

material or snow.

• The sensor may not recognize objects

less than 40 cm (15 in.) from the sen-

sor, or it may sense an incorrect dis-

tance. Use caution.

4. Objects generating excessive noise

(vehicle horns, loud motorcycle

engines, or truck air brakes) are within

range of the sensor.

3. Undetectable objects smaller than 1 m

(40 in.) in height and narrower than 14

cm (6 in.) in diameter.

• When the sensor is frozen or stained

with snow, dirt, or water, the sensor

may be inoperative until the stains are

removed using a soft cloth.

5. Heavy rain or water spray exists.

6. Wireless transmitters or mobile phones

NOTICE

This system can only sense objects with-

in the range and location of the sensors;

It can not detect objects in other areas

where sensors are not installed. Also,

small or slim objects, such as poles or

objects located between sensors may not

be detected by the sensors.

If you don’t hear an audible warning

sound or if the buzzer sounds intermit-

tently when shifting the gear to the R

(Reverse) position, this may indicate a

malfunction in the rear parking assist sys-

tem. If this occurs, we recommend that

the system be checked by an authorized

Kia dealer.

Always visually check behind the vehi-

cle when backing up.

Be sure to inform any drivers of the

vehicle that may be unfamiliar with the

system regarding the systems capabili-

ties and limitations.

WARNING

Your new vehicle warranty does not

cover any accidents or damage to

the vehicle or injuries to its occu-

pants due to a rear parking assist

system malfunction. Always drive

safely and cautiously.

WARNING

Pay close attention when the vehi-

cle is driven close to objects on the

road, particularly pedestrians, and

especially children. Be aware that

some objects may not be detected

by the sensors, due to the object’s

distance, size or material, all of

which can limit the effectiveness of

the sensor. Always perform a visual

inspection to make sure the vehicle

is clear of all obstructions before

moving the vehicle in any direction.

Operation Tips

Air conditioning

✽

NOTICE

• To keep dust or unpleasant fumes from

entering the vehicle through the venti-

lation system, temporarily set the air

intake control to the recirculated air

position. Be sure to return the control

to the fresh air position when the irrita-

tion has passed to keep fresh air in the

vehicle. This will help keep the driver

alert and comfortable.

Kia Air Conditioning Systems are filled

with environmentally friendly R-134a

refrigerant.

• When using the air conditioning sys-

tem, monitor the temperature gauge

closely while driving up hills or in

heavy traffic when outside tempera-

tures are high. Air conditioning sys-

tem operation may cause engine over-

heating. Continue to use the blower

fan but turn the air conditioning sys-

tem off if the temperature gauge indi-

cates engine overheating.

• When opening the windows in humid

weather air conditioning may create

water droplets inside the vehicle.

Since excessive water droplets may

cause damage to electrical equipment,

air conditioning should only be used

with the windows closed.

1. Start the engine. Press the air condi-

tioning button.

2. Set the mode to the

position.

3. Set the air intake control to the outside

air or recirculated air position.

4. Adjust the fan speed control and tem-

perature control to maintain maximum

comfort.

• Air for the heating/cooling system is

drawn in through the grilles just ahead

of the windshield. Care should be

taken that these are not blocked by

leaves, snow, ice or other obstructions.

• When maximum cooling is desired, set

the temperature control to the extreme

left position, then set the fan speed

control to the highest speed.

• To prevent interior fog on the wind-

shield, set the air intake control to the

fresh air position and fan speed to the

desired position, turn on the air condi-

tioning system, and adjust the temper-

ature control to desired temperature.

Air conditioning system operation tips

• When using the air conditioning sys-

tem, you may notice clear water drip-

ping (or even puddling) on the ground

under the passenger side of the vehi-

cle. This is a normal system operation

characteristic.

• If the vehicle has been parked in direct

sunlight during hot weather, open the

windows for a short time to let the hot

air inside the vehicle escape.

Outside air

Recirculated

air

• To help reduce moisture inside of the

windows on rainy or humid days,

decrease the humidity inside the vehi-

cle by operating the air conditioning

system.

• Operating the air conditioning system

in the recirculated air position provides

maximum cooling, however, continual

operation in this mode may cause the

air inside the vehicle to become stale.

• During air conditioning system opera-

tion, you may occasionally notice a

slight change in engine speed as the

This is a normal system operation

characteristic.

• During cooling operation, you may

occasionally notice a misty air flow

because of rapid cooling and humid air

intake. This is a normal system opera-

tion characteristic.

Climate control air filter

(if equipped)

The climate control air filter installed

behind the glove box filters the dust or

other pollutants that come into the vehi-

cle from the outside through the heating

and air conditioning system. If dust or

other pollutants accumulate in the filter

over a period of time, the air flow from the

air vents may decrease, resulting in

moisture accumulation on the inside of

the windshield even when the outside

(fresh) air position is selected. If this hap-

pens, we recommend that the climate

control air filter be replaced by an author-

ized Kia dealer.

• If you operate air conditioner exces-

sively, the difference between the tem-

perature of the outside air and that of

the windshield could cause the outer

surface of the windshield to fog up,

causing loss of visibility. In this case,

✽

NOTICE

• Replace the filter according to the

Maintenance Schedule.

If the vehicle is being driven in severe

conditions such as dusty or rough

roads, more frequent air conditioner

filter inspections and changes are

required.

• When the air flow rate suddenly

decreases, we recommend that the

system be checked by an authorized

Kia dealer.

When the amount of refrigerant is low,

the performance of the air conditioning is

reduced. Overfilling also has a negative

impact on the air conditioning system.

Therefore, if abnormal operation is

found, we recommend that the system be

inspected by an authorized Kia dealer.

✽

NOTICE

It is important that the correct type and

amount of oil and refrigerant is used.

Otherwise, damage to the compressor

and abnormal system operation may

occur.

Features of your vehicle

FM reception

AM(MW, LW) reception

FM radio station

JBM001

JBM002

JBM003

AM (MW, LW) broadcasts can be

received at greater distances than FM

broadcasts. This is because AM(MW,

LW) radio waves are transmitted at low

frequencies. These long, low frequency

radio waves can follow the curvature of

the earth rather than travelling straight

out into the atmosphere. In addition, they

curve around obstructions so that they

can provide better signal coverage.

FM broadcasts are transmitted at high

frequencies and do not bend to follow the

earth's surface. Because of this, FM

broadcasts generally begin to fade at

short distances from the station. Also,

FM signals are easily affected by build-

ings, mountains, or other obstructions.

These can result in certain listening con-

ditions which might lead you to believe a

problem exists with your radio. The fol-

lowing conditions are normal and do not

indicate radio trouble:

How car audio works

AM (MW, LW) and FM radio signals are

broadcast from transmitter towers locat-

ed around your city. They are intercepted

by the radio antenna on your car. This

signal is then received by the radio and

sent to your car speakers.

When a strong radio signal has reached

your vehicle, the precise engineering of

your audio system ensures the best pos-

sible quality reproduction. However, in

some cases the signal coming to your

vehicle may not be strong and clear. This

can be due to factors such as the dis-

tance from the radio station, closeness of

other strong radio stations or the pres-

ence of buildings, bridges or other large

obstructions in the area.

4 112

Features of your vehicle

Using a cellular phone or a two-way

radio

When a cellular phone is used inside the

vehicle, noise may be produced from the

audio equipment. This does not mean

that something is wrong with the audio

equipment. In such a case, use the cellu-

lar phone at a place as far as possible

from the audio equipment.

CAUTION

When using a communication sys-

tem such a cellular phone or a radio

set inside the vehicle, a separate

external antenna must be fitted.

When a cellular phone or a radio set

is used with an internal antenna

alone, it may interfere with the vehi-

cle's electrical system and adverse-

ly affect safe operation of the vehi-

cle.

JBM004

JBM005

• Fading - As your car moves away from

the radio station, the signal will weaken

and sound will begin to fade. When this

occurs, we suggest that you select

another stronger station.

• Station Swapping - As a FM signal

weakens, another more powerful sig-

nal near the same frequency may

begin to play. This is because your

radio is designed to lock onto the clear-

est signal. If this occurs, select anoth-

er station with a stronger signal.

• Flutter/Static - Weak FM signals or

large obstructions between the trans-

mitter and your radio can disturb the

signal causing static or fluttering nois-

es to occur. Reducing the treble level

may lessen this effect until the distur-

bance clears.

• Multi-Path Cancellation - Radio signals

being received from several directions

can cause distortion or fluttering. This

can be caused by a direct and reflect-

ed signal from the same station, or by

signals from two stations with close

frequencies. If this occurs, select

another station until the condition has

passed.

WARNING

Don't use a cellular phone when

you are driving. You should stop at

a safe place to use a cellular phone.
