Smart key precautions
If you lose your smart key, you willnot be able to start the engine. Tow
the vehicle, if necessary, and con-
tact an authorized Kia dealer.
A maximum of 2 smart keys can be registered to a single vehicle. If
you lose a smart key, you should
immediately take the vehicle and
key to your authorized Kia dealer
to protect it from potential theft.
The smart key will not work if any of following occurs:
- The smart key is close to a radiotransmitter such as a radio sta-
tion or an airport which can inter-
fere with normal operation of the
smart key.
- The smart key is near a mobile two-way radio system or a cellu-
lar phone.
- Another vehicle’s smart key is being operated close to your vehicle.
When the smart key does not work
correctly, open and close the door
with the mechanical key. If you
have a problem with the smart key,
contact an authorized Kia dealer. If the smart key is in close proximity
to your cell phone or smart phone,
the signal from the smart key could
be blocked by normal operation of
your cell phone or smart phone.
This is especially important when
the phone is active such as making
calls, receiving calls, text messag-
ing, and/or sending/receiving
emails. Avoid placing the smart key
and your cell phone or smart phone
in the same pants or jacket pocket
and maintain adequate distance
between the two devices.
Do not leave the smart key near metallic objects such as golf bags,
metal cases and so on.
Door Lock/Unlock failure or poor starting can occur when the smart
key is placed near metallic objects.
Always carry your smart key when you leave the car. An unattended
smart key close to the vehicle can
cause the vehicle battery to be dis-
charged. Internal circuit damage may occur
when the key comes into contact
with moisture (beverage, water
etc.) or heat. Damage to the smart
key due to exposure to liquids or
heat is not covered by the manu-
facturer's vehicle warranty.
CAUTION - Transmitter
Keep the smart key away fromwater or any liquid as it canbecome damaged and not func-tion properly.
