The latest engineering techniques have been
incorporated into the design and production of your Kia
Vehicle. From the moment you get behind the wheel of
your new Kia Vehicle, you’ll notice how satisfying it
feels; a feeling you’ll appreciate for as long as you own
your Kia Vehicle. You’ll also be pleased by how strongly
we stand behind every Kia Vehicle. The New vehicle 60
months/60,000 miles Limited Warranty described in this
manual is one of the finest available.
This warranty and consumer manual details the warranties
provided by Kia. You should consult this manual and your
Owner’s Manual to ascertain the maintenance intervals
you need to follow to maintain your warranty coverage.
In addition, your Authorized EV Kia Dealer will take
care of your service needs using Kia Genuine Parts and
Kia Genuine Accessories. These parts are covered by a
“Replacement Parts and Accessories Limited Warranty”.
Please see the contents of this manual for coverage terms
and how to locate Authorized EV Kia Dealers. (See
pg.12 for reference in locating an Authorized EV Kia
Dealer).
At Kia, it’s not enough to sell vehicles that look pleasing
in the showroom. We’re committed to making sure you
enjoy your Kia for years to come.

Maintenance
You are responsible for properly operating and
maintaining your Kia Vehicle in accordance with the
instructions described in your Owner’s Manual. If your
vehicle is used under severe driving conditions, you
must follow the maintenance requirements described in
your Owner’s Manual for severe driving conditions in
order to maintain your warranties.
Maintenance Records
You are required to retain maintenance records since it
may be necessary in some instances for you to prove that
the required maintenance has been performed. The
“Scheduled Maintenance Record” beginning on Page 20
should be filled in when regular maintenance is
performed. Keep all receipts and make them available in
case questions rise about the services requested and
provided.
Locating an Authorized EV Kia Dealer
You can locate an Authorized EV Kia Dealer nearest you
through the Kia website at http://www.kia.com or by
contacting Kia at (800) - 333 - 4KIA (4542).
To Get Warranty Service
You must take your Kia Vehicle, along with this manual,
to an Authorized EV Kia Dealer in the United States
during its normal service hours. (See the preceding
section for reference in locating an Authorized EV Kia
Dealer.). While any Authorized EV Kia Dealer will
perform warranty service, Kia recommends that when
possible you return to the dealership where you
purchased your Kia Vehicle in order to ensure continuity
in service and maintenance. If you have any questions or
need assistance regarding this warranty, refer to “When
You Need to Talk to Kia” starting on Page 24.
Other Terms
This warranty is applicable to Kia Vehicles registered
and normally operated in the United States.
Service and Maintenance Outside the United

it is important that you contact us at (800) 333-4542 in

20Scheduled Maintenance Record
The service records on this and the following pages have
been designed to include the signature of your Authorized
EV Kia Dealer representative or other repair establishment
representative. This signed form is evidence of completion
of maintenance services and should be kept with the
receipts, repair orders and invoices in the glove box. All
records should be given to any subsequent owner of the Kia
Vehicle. Claims made during the warranty term will not
qualify under the warranty if resulting from lack of
maintenance rather than from defective material or
workmanship. Alternatively, for your convenience, you have
been provided with a vehicle maintenance Log booklet for
your use in recording your Kia vehicle’s maintenance. You
may use either to organize and maintain your records.
