Jump starting procedure ✽✽
NOTICE
If the battery is discharged, the engine can be started using a battery of anoth-
er vehicle and two jumper cables. Only
use jumper cables with fully insulatedclamp handles.
To prevent personal injury or damage to
both vehicles, adhere strictly to the fol-
lowing procedure.
1. Make sure the booster battery is 12- volt and that its negative terminal is 
grounded.
2. If the booster battery is in another vehicle, do not allow the vehicles totouch.
3. Turn off all unnecessary electrical loads. 4. Connect the jumper cables in the exact
sequence shown in the illustration.First connect one end of a jumper
cable to the positive terminal of the
discharged battery (1), then connect
the other end to the positive terminal
on the booster battery (2). Proceed toconnect one end of the other jumper
cable to the negative terminal of the
booster battery (3), then the other end
to a solid, stationary, metallic point (for
example, the engine lifting bracket)
away from the battery (4). Do not con-
nect it to or near any part that moves
when the engine is cranked. Make
sure that there is no contact between
the bodywork of the two vehicles; oth-
erwise, there is the danger of short cir-
cuits.
Do not allow the jumper cables to con-
tact anything except the correct battery
terminals or the correct ground. Do not
lean over the battery when making
connections.
CAUTION - Battery cables
Do not connect the jumper cable from
the negative terminal of the booster battery to the negative terminal of thedischarged battery. This can cause
the discharged battery to overheat and crack, releasing battery acid.
CAUTION -AGM battery  (if equipped)
 Absorbent Glass Matt (AGM) bat-
teries are maintenance-free andwe recommend that the AGM bat-
teries be serviced by an autho-rised Kia dealer. For chargingyour AGM battery, use only fully
automatic battery chargers thatare specially developed for AGMbatteries.
 When replacing the AGM battery, we recommend that you use parts
for replacement from an autho- rised Kia dealer.
 Do not open or remove the cap on top of the battery. This may cause
leaks of internal electrolyte that could result in severe injury.
 If the AGM battery is reconnected or replaced, ISG function will notoperate immediately.
If you want to use the ISG func-tion, the battery sensor needs to be calibrated for approximately 4hours with the ignition off.
