containers designed to carry and
store petrol.
 Do not use cellular phones whilst refueling. Electric current and/or
electronic interference from cel-
lular phones can potentially
ignite fuel vapours causing a fire.
 When refueling, always shut the engine off. Sparks produced byelectrical components related tothe engine can ignite fuel
vapours causing a fire. Once
refueling is complete, check tomake sure the filler cap and filler
door are securely closed, before
starting the engine.
 DO NOT use matches or a lighter and DO NOT SMOKE or leave a lit
cigarette in your vehicle whilst at

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.CAUTION

Features of your vehicle
Electronic power steering
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 motor driven power steering is con-
trolled by the power steering control unit
which senses the steering wheel torque
and vehicle speed to command the
motor.
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.
Should you notice any change in the
effort required to steer during normal
vehicle operation, we recommend that
the system be checked by an authorised
Kia dealer.✽✽NOTICE
The following symptoms may occur dur- ing normal vehicle operation:

of the car behind you in nighttime or low
light driving conditions. The sensormounted in the mirror senses the light
level around the vehicle, and automati-cally controls the headlight glare from
vehicles behind you.
When the engine is running, the glare is
automatically controlled by the sensor
mounted in the rearview mirror.
Whenever the shift lever is shifted into R
(Reverse), the mirror will automatically
go to the brightest setting in order to
improve the drivers view behind the vehi-
