Driving your vehicle
WARNING
The Driver Attention Alertsystem is not a substitute for
safe driving practices, but a
convenience function only. It
is the responsibility of the
driver to always drive cau-
tiously to prevent unexpected
and sudden situations from
occurring. Pay attention to the
road conditions at all times.
The system may suggest a break according to the dri-
ver’s driving pattern or habits
even if the driver doesn’t feel
fatigue.
The driver, who feels fatigued, should take a break, even
though there is no break sug-
gestion by the Driver
Attention Alert system.
CAUTION
The Driver Attention Alert sys-tem utilizes the camera sensoron the front windshield for itsoperation.
To prevent potential damage tothe camera and keep the camerasensor operating under optimalconditions, observe the follow-ings:
Do not disassemble camera temporarily for tinted windowor attaching any types of coat-ings and accessories. If youdisassemble a camera andassemble it again, take yourvehicle to an authorized Kiadealer and have the systemchecked to need a calibration.
Do not locate any reflective objects (i.e. white paper, mir-ror) over the dashboard. Anylight reflection may cause amal-function of the DriverAttention Alert (DAA) system.
(Continued)
(Continued) Pay extreme caution to keep the camera sensor out ofwater.
Do not arbitrarily disassemble the camera assembly, norapply any impact on the cam-era assembly.
Playing the vehicle audio sys- tem at high volume may offsetthe Driver Attention Alert sys-tem warning sounds.

Remember, your vehicle does not
require extended warm-up. After
the engine has started, allow the
engine to run for 10 to 20 seconds
prior to placing the vehicle in gear.
In very cold weather, however, give
your engine a slightly longer warm-
up period.
Don't "lug" or "over-rev" the engine. Lugging is driving too slowly in a
very high gear resulting in engine
bucking. If this happens, shift to a
lower gear. Over-revving is racing
the engine beyond its safe limit.
This can be avoided by shifting at
the recommended speed. Use your air conditioning sparingly.
The air conditioning system is
operated by engine power so your
fuel economy is reduced when you
use it.
Open windows at high speeds can reduce fuel economy.
Fuel economy is less in crosswinds and headwinds. To help offset
some of this loss, slow down when
driving in these conditions.
Keeping a vehicle in good operating
condition is important both for econ-
omy and safety. Therefore, have an
authorized Kia dealer perform
scheduled inspections and mainte-
nance.
WARNING - Engine off during motion
Never turn the engine off to
coast down hills or anytime the
vehicle is in motion. The power
steering and power brakes will
not function properly without the
engine running. In addition, turn-
ing off the engine start/stop but-
ton while driving could engage
the steering wheel lock resulting
in loss of vehicle steering. Keep
the engine on and downshift to
an appropriate gear for an
engine braking effect.

Driving your vehicle
To keep locks from freezing
To keep the locks from freezing,
squirt an approved de-icer fluid or
glycerine into the key opening. If a
lock is covered with ice, squirt it with
an approved de-icing fluid to remove
the ice. If the lock is frozen internally,
you may be able to thaw it out by
using a heated key. Handle the heat-
ed key with care to avoid injury.
Use approved window washer
anti-freeze in system
To keep the water in the window
washer system from freezing, add an
approved window washer anti-freeze
solution in accordance with instruc-
tions on the container. Window wash-
er anti-freeze is available from an
authorized Kia dealer and most auto
parts outlets. Do not use engine
coolant or other types of anti-freeze
as these may damage the paint fin-
ish.
Don’t let your parking brake
freeze
Under some conditions your parking
brake can freeze in the engaged
position. This is most likely to happen
when there is an accumulation of
snow or ice around or near the rear
brakes or if the brakes are wet. If
there is a risk the parking brake may
freeze, apply it only temporarily while
you put the gear shift lever in P (Park,
Dual clutch transmission) and block
the rear wheels so the vehicle cannot
roll. Then release the parking brake.
Don't let ice and snow accu-
mulate underneath
Under some conditions, snow and
ice can build up under the fenders
and interfere with the steering. When
driving in severe winter conditions
where this may happen, you should
periodically check underneath the
vehicle to be sure the movement of
the front wheels and the steering
components are not obstructed.
Carry emergency equipment
Depending on the severity of the
weather, you should carry appropri-
ate emergency equipment. Some of
the items you may want to carry
include tow straps or chains, flash-
light, emergency flares, sand, shov-
el, jumper cables, window scraper,
gloves, ground cloth, coveralls, blan-
ket, etc.
TRAILER TOWING
We do not recommend using this
vehicle for trailer towing.

What to do in an emergency
EMERGENCY STARTING
Before Jump Starting
(For Hybrid)
Over discharge of 12V battery
- Press the reconnection(“12V Batt Reset”) switch (1) :
This car has a reconnection switch
which can reset the over discharged
12V battery and enable getting the
car started without jump-start.
Press the “12V Batt Reset” switch(1) located on the lower left dash.
Immediately start car by stepping on the brake pedal and pressing
the Start switch within few seconds. To charge 12V battery, keep driving
or idling the car more than 30 min-
utes.
If you do not start the vehicle immedi-
ately after pressing the “12V Batt
Reset” switch (1), the power of 12V
battery is automatically disconnected
after few seconds to save the 12V
battery from additional discharge. If
the 12V battery is disconnected prior
to starting the vehicle, press “12V Batt
Reset” switch (1) again and then
immediately start the car as explained
above.
Repeated use of the “12V Batt Reset”
switch(1) without a sufficient engine
ON cycle (30 Min+) may cause over
discharge of the 12V battery, which will
prevent car starting. If the 12V battery
is over discharged to a point that the
reset does not work, try to jump-start
the vehicle. (refer to jump-starting)
After starting the vehicle (HEV
Ready), the 12V battery is being
charged whether the engine is run-
ning or not. Although there is no
engine-sound, it is not necessary to
step on the accelerator pedal. Once the 12V battery is fully dis-
charged and reconnected, the 12V
battery is initialized.
Items should be reset after the battery
has been discharged or the battery
has been disconnected.

As explained above, if the vehicle
can not be started after pressing the

over discharge, try to jump-start
(refer to Jump-starting).

What to do in an emergency
IF AN ACCIDENT OCCURS
✽
✽ NOTICE
Any gas or electrolyte leakage from
your vehicle is not only poisonous
but also flammable. Upon witness-
ing one of those, open the windows,
and remain a safe distance from the
vehicle out of the road. Immediately
contact an authorized Kia dealer
and advise them that a hybrid vehi-
cle is involved.
If you need towing, refer to
"Towing" in the previous pages.
When the vehicle is severely dam- aged, remain a safe distance of 50
feet (15 meter) or more between
your vehicle and other
vehicles/flammables.
If a fire occurs :
Immediately call emergency services
(911) and advise the emergency
responders that a hybrid vehicle is
involved.
WARNING - High voltage components
For your safety, do not touch high voltage cables, connec-
tors and package modules.
High voltage components are
orange in color.
Exposed cables or wires may be visible inside or outside of
the vehicle. Never touch the
wires or cables, because an
electrical shock, an injury, or a
death may occur.WARNING- Submersion
in water
Do not touch your vehicle if it
has been submerged in water.
The high-voltage battery may
cause shock or may catch fire.
Immediately contact the author-
ities and advise them of the
condition of your vehicle and
that a hybrid vehicle is involved.
