smart phone, the wireless charging
function may not operate properly.
2. Place the smart phone on the cen- ter of the wireless charging pad.

If the wireless charging does not
work, gently move your smart phone
around the pad until the charging indi-
cator light turns yellow. Depending on

tor light may not turn green even after

trol that may lead to an acci-
dent, severe personal injury,
and death. The driver’s primary
responsibility is in the safe and
legal operation of a vehicle, and
use of any handheld devices,
other equipment, or vehicle sys-
tems which take the driver’s
eyes, attention and focus away
from the safe operation of a
vehicle or which are not permis-
sible by law should never be
used during operation of the
vehicle.

Driving your vehicle
Starting the engine
1. Carry the smart key or place itinside the vehicle.
2. Make sure the parking brake is firmly applied.
3. Manual Transmission - Depress
the clutch pedal fully and shift the
transmission into Neutral. Keep the
clutch pedal and brake pedal
depressed while starting the
engine.
Intelligent Variable Transmission
- Place the transmission shift lever in
P (Park). Depress the brake pedal
fully.
You can also start the engine when the shift lever is in the N(Neutral) position.

tionary. Start driving at moderate
engine speeds. (Steep accelerat-
ing and decelerating should be
avoided.)
Starting and stopping the engine
for turbocharger intercooler
1. Do not race or accelerate the engine immediately after starting.
If the engine is cold, idle for sever-
al seconds before sufficient lubri-
cation is ensured in the tur-
bocharger unit.
2. After high speed or extended driv- ing, requiring a heavy engine load,
idle the engine about 1 minute
before turning it off.
This idle time will allow the tur- bocharger to cool prior to shutting
the engine off.
Starting the engine with smart key
Even if the smart key is in the vehi- cle, if it is far away from you, the
engine may not start.
When the engine start/stop button is in the ACC position or above, if
any door is opened, the system
checks for the smart key. If the
smart key is not in the vehicle, the
“ ” indicator and a message
“Key is not in the vehicle” will appear
on the instrument cluster and LCD
window. And if all doors are closed,
the chime will sound for 5 seconds.
The indicator or warning will turn off
while the vehicle is moving. Always
have the smart key with you.
CAUTION
Do not turn the engine off imme-diately after it has been subject-ed to a heavy load. Doing somay cause severe damage tothe engine or turbocharger unit.

✽ ✽
NOTICE
• When operating the vehicle on a
dynamometer, ensure that the
ESC is turned off (ESC OFF light
illuminated). If the ESC is left on,
it may prevent the vehicle speed
from increasing, and result in false
diagnosis.
• Turning the ESC off does not affect ABS or brake system opera-
tion.
Vehicle stability management
(VSM)
This system provides further
enhancements to vehicle stability
and steering responses when a vehi-
cle is driving on a slippery road or a
vehicle detects changes in coeffi-
cient of friction between right wheels
and left wheels when braking.
VSM operation
When the VSM is in operation, ESC
indicator light ( ) blinks.
When the vehicle stability manage-
ment is operating properly, you can
feel a slight pulsation in the vehicle
and/or abnormal steering responses
(EPS- Electronic Power Steering).
This is only the effect of brake and
EPS control and indicates nothing
unusual.
The VSM does not operate when:
Driving on a sloping road such as a
gradient or incline
Driving in reverse
ESC OFF indicator light ( ) remains on the instrument cluster
EPS indicator light remains on the instrument cluster
WARNING- Tire/
Wheel size
When replacing tires and wheels,
make sure they are the same size
as the original tires and wheels
installed. Driving with varying
tire or wheel sizes may diminish
any supplemental safety benefits
of the VSM system.

Driving your vehicle
The warning light illumi-
nates on the LCD display,
when you cancel the FCA
system. The driver can
monitor the FCA ON/OFF status on
the LCD display. Also, the warning
light illuminates when the ESC
(Electronic Stability Control) is
turned off. When the warning light
remains ON with the FCA activated,
have the system checked by an
authorized Kia dealer.
The driver can select the initial warn-
ing activation time in the User
Settings in the instrument cluster
LCD display. The options for the ini-
tial Forward Collision Warning
include the following:
selected, the initial
Forward Collision Warning
is activated earlier than
normal. This setting maxi-
mizes the amount of dis-
tance between the vehicle
ahead before the initial
warning occurs. If the
‘EARLY’ condition feels too
sensitive, change it into
‘NORMAL’. When the vehi-
cle ahead suddenly stops,
the warning may seem to
activate later even if the
‘EARLY’ condition was
selected.
selected, the initial
Forward Collision
Warning is activated nor-
mally. Compared to
EARLY mode, this set-
ting allows for a smaller
amount of distance
between the vehicle
ahead before the initial
warning occurs.
selected, the initial Forward
Collision Warning is activat-
ed later than normal. This
setting reduces the amount
of distance between the
vehicle ahead before the
initial warning occurs.
Select this condition only
when traffic is light, and you
are driving slowly.
