BATTERY REPLACEMENTThe transmitter uses a 3-Volt, lithium-
type battery. The battery will normally
last for several years. If it ever needs
replacement, use the following
procedure:
1. Using a screwdriver, loosen the
screw on the back of the transmitter
and pry the back off with a thin tool.
2. Remove the battery from the back.
3. Insert a new battery, making sure the
“Plus(+)” side faces up, and
reassemble the transmitter.
THEFT - ALARM SYSTEM
(IF EQUIPPED)ARMED STAGEThe system is armed as described

THE IMPORTANCE OF
USING SAFETY BELTSThere are four very important reasons to
use safety belts even with an air bag
system, they:
• Help keep you in the proper position
(away from the air bag) when it
inflates.
• Reduce the risk of harm in rollover,
side or rear impact collisions,
because an air bag is not designed to
inflate in such situations.
• Reduce the risk of harm in frontal
collisions that are not severe enough
to activate the supplemental restraint
system.
• Reduce the risk of being thrown from
your vehicle.
WARNING - Air Bags &
Safety Belts
 Even in vehicles with air bags,
you and your passengers
must always wear the safety
belts provided in order to
minimize the risk and severity
of injury in the event of a
collision or rollover.
 Always wear your safety belt.
It can help keep you away
from the air bags during
heavy braking just before a
collision.
 Air bags are designed to
inflate only in severe frontal
collisions and will generally
not provide protection in side
or rear impacts, rollovers or
less severe frontal collisions.
They will also not provide
protection from later impacts
in a multi-impact collision.
 If your vehicle has been
subjected to flood conditions
(e.g. soaked carpeting/
standing water on the floor of
the vehicle, etc.) or if your
vehicle has become flood
damaged in any way, do not
attempt to start the vehicle or
put the key in the ignition
before disconnecting the
battery. This may cause air
bag deployment, which could
result in serious personal
injury or death. Have the
vehicle towed to an
Authorized Kia Dealer for
inspection and necessary
repairs.

If the sunroof does not electrically
operate.
1. Remove the retangular plastic lens in
the front of the roof panel.
2. Turn the cross bolt with a phillips
screw driver counterclockwise to
remove the front dome light
assembly.
3. Insert the hexagonal head wrench
provided with the vehicle into the
socket. This wrench can be found in
the glove box.
4. Turn the wrench clockwise to open
or counterclockwise to close.
RESETTING THE SUNROOFWhen your battery happens to be
disconnected or you use the hexagonal
head wrench to operate the sunroof, you
have to reset your sunroof motor as
follows :
• Turn the ignition key to the ON
position.
• Pull the sunroof fuse out from the
main fuse box in engine
compartment and reinstall it.
• Depress the front portion of sunroof
switch and hold it during 5 seconds.
SUNSHADE (IF EQUIPPED)The sunshade can be opened with the
glass panel automatically when the glass
panel is slid. To close the sunshade you
have to do so manually.

IGNITION SWITCH ILLUMINATED IGNITION
SWITCHWhenever a door is opened, the ignition
switch will be illuminated for your
convenience, provided the ignition
switch is not in the “ON” position. The
light will go off approximately 10
seconds after closing the door or when
the ignition switch is turned on.
IGNITION SWITCH AND
ANTITHEFT STEERING
COLUMN LOCK IGNITION SWITCH POSITIONLOCKThe steering wheel is locked to protect
against theft. The ignition key can be
removed only in the LOCK position. For
vehicles equipped with an automatic
transaxle, it also locks the gear shift lever
in the P (Park) position.
ACC (ACCESSORY)Turning the ignition switch to this
position unlocks the steering wheel and
will allow some of your vehicle’s
electrical accessories such as the radio to
operate when the engine is OFF.ONTurning the ignition switch to this
position allows you to test your vehicle’s
warning lights (except the brake system
warning light) to make sure they work
before you start the engine. The ignition
key returns to the ON position once the
engine is started and remains in this
position while the engine is running.
Do not leave the ignition switch in the
ON position for extended periods with
the engine OFF because the battery will
discharge.

IN THE EVENT OF BRAKE
FAILUREIf the service brakes should fail to operate
while the vehicle is in motion, you can
make an emergency stop with the parking
brake. The stopping distance, however,
will be much greater than normal.DRIVING YOUR VEHICLE
4-14✻
NOTICE
• If the battery is discharged and
the engine is jump started, the
ABS warning light may come on.
This condition occurs because of
a discharged battery and not
because there is an anti-lock
brake system malfunction.
• Have the battery recharged
before driving the vehicle.
WARNING -
Parking Brake
Pulling on the parking brake
while the vehicle is moving at
normal speed can cause a
sudden loss of control of the
vehicle. If you must use the
parking brake to stop the
vehicle, use great caution in
applying the brake.
WARNING
Do not drive with your foot
resting on the brake pedal.
This will create abnormally
high brake temperatures,
excessive brake lining and
pad wear, and increased
stopping distances.
When descending a long or
steep hill, shift to a lower gear
and avoid continuous applica-
tion of the brakes.
Continuous brake application
will cause the brakes to
overheat and could result in a
temporary loss of braking
performance.
