Safety features of your vehicle
✽ ✽NOTICE
Do not modify or replace the front
passenger seat. Don't place anything
on or attach anything such as a blan-
ket, front seat cover or after market
seat heater to the front passenger
seat. This can adversely affect the
occupant detection system.
Condition and operation in the front passenger occupant detection
system
*1: The ODS system uses a field to evaluate a person's size to determine whether the
air bag should deploy. It is possible for a child to be detected and activate the ODS,
thus allowing the air bag to deploy. To maximize safety, do not allow children to ride
in the front passenger seat.
*
2: Never install a child restraint system on the front passenger seat.
Condition detected by the occupant detection system

Features of your vehicle
State of charge (SOC) gauge forhigh voltage battery
It shows the charging status of the
high voltage battery.
"MIN" position on the indicator indi-
cates that there is not enough ener-
gy in the high voltage battery. "MAX"
position indicates that the driving
battery is fully charged.
When driving on highways or motor-
ways, make sure to check in advance if
the driving battery is charged enough. When there are 4 gauge bars (near
the "MIN" area) on the high voltage
charge indicator, the warning lamp
turns ON to alert you of the battery
level.
When the warning lamp turns ON, the
vehicle can drive an additional 20~40
km (12.4~24.8 miles) (depending on
the driving speed, heater/air condition-
er, weather, driving style, and other
factors). Charging is required.When there are 1-2 gauge bars left
for the high voltage battery, the vehi-
cle speed is limited and then eventu-
ally the vehicle will be turned OFF.
Charge the vehicle immediately.

Range
On average, a vehicle can drive
about 148km (93miles) when the
high voltage battery is 100%
charged.
Under certain circumstances where
the air conditioner/heater is ON, the
distance to empty is impacted,
resulting in a possible distance range
from 100~230km. (62~143mi). When
using the heater during cold weather
or driving at high speed, the high
voltage battery consumes a lot more
electricity. This may reduce the dis-
tance to empty significantly. After “---” has been displayed, the vehi-
cle can drive an additional 5~15km
(3.1~9.3mi.) (depending on driving
speed, heater/air conditioner, weather,
driving style, and other factors).
Distance to empty that is displayed
on the instrument cluster after com-
pleting a recharge may vary signifi-
cantly depending on previous operat-
ing patterns.
When previous driving patterns
include high speed driving, resulting
in the driving battery using more
electricity than usual, the estimated
distance to empty is reduced. When
the high voltage battery uses a little
electricity in ECO mode, the estimat-
ed distance to empty increases.
Distance to empty may depend on
many factors such as the charge
amount of the high voltage battery,
weather, temperature, durability of
the battery, geographical features,
and driving style.
Natural degradation may occur with
the high voltage battery depending
on the number of years the vehicle is
used. This may reduce the distance
to empty.

When using the air conditioning
system, you may notice clear water
dripping (or even puddling) on the
ground under the passenger side
of the vehicle. This is a normal sys-
tem operation characteristic.
Operating the air conditioning sys- tem in the recirculated air position
provides maximum cooling, how-
ever, continual operation in this
mode may cause the air inside the
vehicle to become stale.
During cooling operation, you may occasionally notice a misty air flow
because of rapid cooling and
humid air intake. This is a normal
system operation 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
vehicle 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 happens, have the cli-
mate control air filter replaced by an
authorized Kia dealer.
✽ ✽ NOTICE
• Replace the filter every 15,000
miles or once a year.
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, the system should be
checked at an authorized Kia
dealer.

Features of your vehicle
Checking the amount of air
conditioner refrigerant and
compressor lubricant
When the amount of refrigerant is
low, the performance of the air con-
ditioning is reduced. Overfilling also
has a negative impact on the air con-
ditioning system.
(Heater performance as well as air
conditioner performance can be
deteriorated on the vehicle that is
equipped with a heat pump.)
Therefore, if abnormal operation is
found, have the system inspected by
an authorized Kia dealer.
WARNING
The air conditioning system for
the Electric Vehicle (EV) should
be serviced by an authorized
Kia dealer. The Electric Vehicle
(EV) air conditioning system is
connected to the high voltage
system and requires special flu-
ids, tools and service proce-
dures. Improperly servicing the
Electric Vehicle (EV) air condi-
tioning system could result in
electrical shock, serious injury,
or even death.
WARNING
The oil and refrigerant in your
vehicle's air conditioning sys-
tem is under very high pres-
sure. If proper service proce-
dures are not followed an explo-
sion may result. To reduce the
risk of serious injury or death,
the air conditioning system in
your vehicle should only be
serviced by trained and certi-
fied technicians.
CAUTION - AC Repair
It is important that the correcttype and amount of oil andrefrigerant is used, otherwisedamage to the vehicle and injurymay occur. To prevent damage,the air conditioning system inyour vehicle should only beserviced by trained and certifiedtechnicians.
