The power outlets provide power for
mobile telephones or other devices
designed to operate with the vehi-
cle's electrical systems. These
devices should draw less than 10
amps while the engine is running.
Use the power outlet only when theengine is running and remove the
accessory plug after use. Using the
accessory plug for prolonged peri-
ods of time with the engine off
could cause the battery to dis-
charge.
Only use 12V electric accessories which are less than 10A in electric
capacity.
Adjust the air-conditioner or heater to the lowest operating level when
using the power outlet. Close the cover when not in use.
Some electronic devices can
cause electronic interference when
plugged into a vehicle’s power out-
let. These devices may cause
excessive audio static and mal-
functions in other electronic sys-
tems or devices used in your vehi-
cle.
Electric Shock
Do not put a finger or a foreign
element (pin, etc.) into a power
outlet and do not touch with a
wet hand. You may get an elec-
tric shock.

When cleaning the seats, donot use an organic solvent
such as paint thinner, ben-
zene, alcohol and gasoline.
Doing so may damage the
surface of the heater or seats.

thing on the seats that insu-
lates against heat, such as
blankets, cushions or seat
covers on the seats while the
seat warmer is in operation.
Do not place heavy or sharp objects on the seat. Those
things may damage the seat
warmer system.

burns, even at low tempera-
tures, if used over a long period
of time. Never allow passen-
gers who may not be able to
take care of themselves to be

When the operation of the air ventila-
tion is not needed, keep the switches
in the OFF position.
Each time you press the switch,the airflow will change as follows:
When pressing the switch for more than 1.5 seconds with the seat
cooler operating, the seat cooler
will turn OFF.
When the air ventilation seat is turned on, the seat may get cooler
after about 5 minutes.
Because the air ventilation uses the air in the vehicle, cooling effi-
ciency depends on the tempera-
ture of the air. In order to improve
cooling efficiency, use the air con-
ditioning system together.
The air ventilation seat defaults to the OFF position whenever the
Engine Start/Stop Button is turned
to the ON position. You can activate or deactivate the
rear air ventilation button by using
the REAR LOCK button on the rear
armrest or “System Settings” in
AVN (Audio, Video, and
Navigation). Detailed information
for “System Settings” is described
in a separately supplied manual. If
the REAR LOCK button activated
(LED “ON”), you can not activate
the rear air ventilation button.
After deactivating (LED “OFF”) the
REAR LOCK button, you can acti-
vate the rear air ventilation button.
If the REAR LOCK button has acti-
vated through AVN, you can deacti-
vate the REAR LOCK button only
through AVN.
The air ventilation seat is a supple- mentary cooling/heating system.
Use the air ventilation seat when
the climate control system is on.
Using the air ventilation seat for
prolonged periods of time with the
climate control system off could
cause the air ventilation seat per-
formance to impair. Do not place materials such as
plastic bags or newspapers under
the seats. The air vent may not
work properly as the air intake can
be blocked.
✽ NOTICE
When the air vent does not operate,
restart the vehicle. If there is no
change, have your vehicle inspected
by an authorized K900 Kia dealer.

ber mat on top of a carpeted floor
mat). Only a single floor mat should
be installed in each position.

anchored so that it will not
interfere with the operation of
the accelerator pedal. Any inter-
ference with the accelerator
pedal could cause the accelera-
tor pedal to be unable to return
to the idle position. A pedal that
cannot return to the idle posi-
tion could lead to an accident
which may result in severe per-
sonal injury or death.
