from such date, whichever occurs first, except that if
the failure to conform to applicable emission
standards results from the failure of a part listed on
the 96 Month/80,000 Mile Emission Warranty Parts
List at the end of this Federal Emission Control
Warranty, this warranty shall be effective for a
period of vehicle operation that does not exceed 96
months or 80,000 miles, whichever occurs first.
3. Owner’s Warranty Responsibilities
Each Owner is required to comply with the Written
Maintenance Instructions and a claim under this
warranty may be denied on the basis of
noncompliance by the Owner with such instructions.
If and when it is considered that the vehicle’s
nonconformity with the applicable emission
standards has resulted from the Owner’s
noncompliance with those Written Maintenance
Instructions which the manufacturer considers
necessary for the vehicle to meet the standards, the
Owner may be required to submit evidence of such
compliance, and therefore, receipts and other
documents covering the performance of scheduled
Maintenance Service and proper use in accordance
with the Written Maintenance Instructions,
including but not limited to validated Scheduled
Maintenance Record of this manual, should be
retained by the Owner and should be transferred to
each subsequent Owner of the Kia Vehicle.
4. Use of Kia Genuine Parts
The Kia Vehicle is designed, built and tested using
Kia Genuine Parts so that the Kia Vehicle is able to
perform in conformity with EPA regulations as
provided by this warranty. Accordingly, it is
recommended that any replacement parts used for
maintenance, repair or replacement of the Kia
Vehicle be Kia Genuine Parts, or parts equivalent to
those with which the Kia Vehicle or its engine was
originally equipped.
5. Use of Non-Kia Parts
Owner may elect to use Certified Parts other than
Kia Genuine Parts in the performance of any
maintenance or repairs and such use in itself will not
invalidate this warranty. However, use of other than
Kia Genuine Parts may cause Kia to deny an
Emission Performance Warranty claim if the
Certified Part used is either defective in materials or
workmanship or not equivalent from an emission
standpoint to Kia Genuine Parts.

6. Repair or Replacement by an Authorized Kia
Dealer
Your Kia Dealer shall make all adjustments, repairs
or replacements necessary to assure the Kia Vehicle
complies with applicable emission standards of the
EPA and that the Kia Vehicle will continue to
comply during the remainder of the term of this
warranty (if proper maintenance and operation are
continued).
7. Warranty Claim Procedures
A warranty claim may be submitted by presenting
the Kia Vehicle to any Authorized Kia Dealer during
the Authorized Kia Dealer’s regular business hours,
together with a copy of a failed emissions test. Upon
presentation of a claim, Kia shall notify the Owner
within 30 days, or such shorter period of time within
which repair is required by local, state or federal
law, that the claim will be honored or shall provide
the Owner in writing with an explanation of the
basis upon which the claim is being denied.
Failure to notify the Owner within such time period
shall cause Kia to be responsible for repairing the
Kia Vehicle free of charge to the Owner, unless such
failure is attributable to the Owner or to events
beyond the control of Kia or the Authorized Kia
Dealer.
8. Maintenance by Other Than an Authorized Kia
Dealer
Maintenance, replacement, or repair of the emission
control devices and systems covered by this
warranty may be performed by any automotive
repair establishment or individual using Certified
Parts. However, such non-Kia Certified Parts will
not be covered by Kia’s emission system warranties
should such parts fail at a later date.

Your Warranty Rights And Obligations
The California Air Resources Board and Kia Motors
America, Inc., are pleased to explain the emission
control system warranty on your 2019 Kia vehicle. In
California, new motor vehicles must be designed, built
and equipped to meet the State’s stringent anti-smog
standards. Kia must warrant the emission control
system on your Kia vehicle for the periods of time
listed below provided there has been no abuse, neglect
or improper maintenance of your Kia vehicle.
Your emission control system may include parts such
as the carburetor or fuel-injection system, the ignition
system, catalytic converter, and engine computer. Also
included may be hoses, belts, connectors and other
emission-related assemblies. Where a warrantable
condition exists, Kia will repair your Kia vehicle at no
cost to you including diagnosis, parts and labor.
Manufacturer’s Warranty Coverage
For 3 years or 50,000 miles, whichever first occurs:
1. If your Kia vehicle fails a Smog Check inspection, all necessary repairs and adjustments will be made by Kia to ensure that your vehicle passes the inspection. This is your emission control system PERFORMANCE WARRANTY.
2. If any emission-related part on your Kia vehicle is defective, the part will be repaired or replaced by Kia. This is your short-term emission control system DEFECTS WARRANTY.
For 7 years or 70,000 miles for emission related parts, whichever first occurs (8 years or 80,000 miles for Federal Emission Control Warranty) :
If an emission-related part listed in this warranty booklet specially noted with coverage for 7 years or 70,000 miles is defective, the part will be repaired or replaced by Kia. This is your long-term emission control system DEFECTS WARRANTY.
For 2019 SULEV (Super Ultra Low Emission Vehicle) vehicle certified as partial zero-emission vehicle (PZEV) only, all parts covered under the PERFORMANCE WARRANTY and the DEFECT WARRANTY, which are listed in this warranty booklet on the Emission Warranty Parts List, are warranted for 15 years or 150,000 miles, whichever occurs first.

Owner’s Warranty Responsibilities
As the Kia vehicle owner, you are responsible for the
performance of the required maintenance listed in your
owner’s manual. Kia recommends that you retain all
receipts covering maintenance on your vehicle but Kia
cannot deny warranty solely for the lack of receipts or
for your failure to ensure the performance of all
scheduled maintenance.
You are responsible for presenting your Kia vehicle to a
Kia dealer as soon as a problem exists. The warranty
repairs should be completed in a reasonable amount of
time, not to exceed 30 days.
As the Kia vehicle owner, you should also be aware that
Kia may deny you warranty coverage if your Kia vehicle
or a part has failed due to abuse, neglect, improper
maintenance or unapproved modifications.
If you have any questions regarding your warranty rights
and responsibilities, you should contact Kia Motors
America, Inc., Consumer Affairs Department at 1-800-
333-4542 or the California Air Resource Board at 9528
Telstar Avenue, El Monte, CA 91731 (1-800-242-4450).
Coverage
Kia Motors America, Inc. (Kia), warrants to the owner
that any vehicle certified for sale in the State of California
and registered in the State of California is designed, built
and equipped so as to conform with the emissions
standards adopted by the California Air Resources Board.
Kia warrants that this vehicle is free from defects in
material and workmanship which would cause any part on
this vehicle which affects emissions to fail to conform
with applicable requirements or to fail to pass a required
state smog check test for 3 years or 50,000 miles,
whichever occurs first. Kia also warrants that, any part on
the warranted emissions parts list in this warranty and
installed as original equipment, is free from defects in
material and workmanship which would cause this
vehicle to fail to conform with applicable regulations for 7
years or 70,000 miles, whichever first occurs.

Warranty Service
To obtain warranty service, return the vehicle to any
authorized Kia dealer. Service will be performed without
charge for diagnosis, parts and labor. In case of
emergency, see Emergency Service Instructions.
Exclusions
This warranty does not apply to failures caused by abuse,
tampering or lack of maintenance; or to any vehicle on
which the odometer mileage has been altered so that the
vehicle’s actual mileage cannot be determined.
STATEMENT OF OWNER’S RIGHTS AND
OBLIGATIONS
What Is Covered By The Warranty
If a vehicle fails a state Smog Check test during the
coverage period, Kia will repair the vehicle so that it will
pass a state Smog Check retest. The owner should take the
vehicle to any authorized dealer for Warranty repairs and
present a copy of the failed Smog Check test report to the
dealer. If the owner is not notified within 30 days that a
performance warranty claim is not valid then the
manufacture is required to repair the vehicle free of charge.
In addition, if a warranted part fails because of a defect,
Kia will repair or replace it at any authorized Kia dealer.
Any other parts damaged by the failure of a warranted
part will also be repaired or replaced. The repair and/or
replacement will be made at no charge to the owner for
parts, labor and diagnosis. For emergency situations, see
the instructions under Emergency Service.
How Long Does The Warranty Last
The warranty shall apply for 3 years or 50,000 miles,
whichever occurs first, except that those parts listed on the
warranted parts list are covered for 7 years or 70,000
miles, whichever first occurs. For 2019 SULEV(Super
Ultra Low Emission Vehicle) vehicle certified as partial
zero-emission vehicle(PZEV) only, all parts covered
under the PERFORMANCE WARRANTY and the
DEFECT WARRANTY, which are listed in this warranty
booklet on the Emission Warranty Parts List, are
warranted for 15 years or 150,000 miles, whichever
occurs first. Where parts are scheduled for replacement as
required maintenance, the warranty shall apply until the
first scheduled maintenance point listed in the Owner’s
Manual. This warranty begins on the date the vehicle is
delivered to the original purchaser or on the date the
vehicle is first placed in service, whichever occurs first.

California
Emission Control Warranty
What The Owner Must Do
It is your responsibility to perform the required
maintenance and use the vehicle in accordance with
Kia’s written instructions. Warranty coverage will not be
denied solely because there is no record of maintenance.
However, failures caused by lack of required
maintenance are not covered by the warranty. To avoid
questions as to whether the vehicle maintenance has
been performed, Kia urges that you retain all receipts
and/or maintenance records indicating that service has
been performed on the vehicle and these documents
should be transferred to any subsequent owner of the
vehicle.
Service
MAINTENANCE SERVICE CAN BE PERFORMED
BY ANY QUALIFIED SERVICE OUTLET OR BY
THE OWNER. HOWEVER, EXCEPT IN AN
EMERGENCY SITUATION (SEE EMERGENCY
SERVICE), WARRANTY SERVICE MUST BE
PERFORMED BY AN AUTHORIZED KIA DEALER.
Parts
IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT ANY REPLACEMENT
PARTS USED FOR MAINTENANCE OR FOR THE
REPAIR OF EMISSIONS CONTROL SYSTEMS BE
NEW, KIA GENUINE PARTS. However, the warranty
obligations are not dependent upon the use of any
particular brand of replacement parts. The owner may
elect to use non-Kia parts for maintenance purposes. Use
of replacement parts which are not of equivalent quality
may impair the effectiveness of emissions control systems.
What Is Not Covered By Emission Warranty
Malfunctions in any part caused by misuse, alteration,
tampering, disconnection or improper or inadequate
maintenance.
Damage to catalytic converter due to use of leaded
gasoline.
Damage resulting from fire, accident, negligence, act of
God or other events beyond the control of Kia.

28CaliforniaEmission Control Warranty
Incidental or consequential damages such as loss of use
of the vehicle, loss of time, inconvenience, expense for
gasoline, telephone, travel or lodging.
Any vehicle on which the odometer mileage has been
altered so that actual vehicle mileage cannot readily be
determined. (When the Owner replaces the speedometer
or has it replaced by a repair facility, then the
“Speedometer Replacement Record” on the inside front
cover must be filled in by an Authorized Kia Dealer.)
Loss or damage to personal property, loss of revenue,
commercial loss or other matter not specifically
included.
Damage resulting from the use of a non-Kia part.
Emergency Service
If emergency Emission Control System Warranty service
is required and the owner is unable to readily locate an
authorized Kia dealer or if a warranted part is not
available within 30 days, then, repairs may be performed
at any available service establishment, or by the owner,
using any replacement part. Kia will reimburse the
owner for the owner’s expenses including diagnostic
charges for such emergency repair or replacement at
Kia’s suggested retail price for all warranted parts
replaced and labor charges based on Kia’s recommended
time allowance for the warranty repair and the
geographically appropriate hourly labor rate. Replaced
parts and copies of paid original receipts must be
available for presentation to Kia as a condition of
reimbursement for these emergency repairs. In addition,
the owner must provide Kia a detailed description
indicating why the situation was considered an
emergency and why an authorized Kia dealer was not
available. Additional information may be obtained by
calling 1-800-333-4Kia. A repair not being complete
