Subject to the other terms and conditions of this limited
warranty manual, Kia America, Inc. (“Kia”) warrants
that it will arrange for an authorized Kia dealer at
locations of its choice to provide for the repair of your
vehicle if it fails to function properly during normal use.
Such service facilities will remedy such failures to
function properly at Kia America, Inc.’s expense, if you
present your vehicle to such a service facility during its
normal operating hours, provide sufficient information to
permit a proper identification and diagnosis of the failure
to function, and permit the facility adequate time to
perform the necessary repair. As this obligation is
subject to the terms, conditions and limitations of this
Manual, you should refer to the manual to understand
which repairs and replacements are covered by this
warranty. If an Authorized Kia Dealer declines or fails
to carry out a proper repair or replacement of a factory
installed part covered by this limited warranty without
charge to you, Kia will (a) determine if the repair or
replacement requested by you is covered by this New
Vehicle Limited Warranty and, if so, (b) obtain
cooperation from an Authorized Kia Dealer to conduct
such repair or replacement without charge to you.
However, Kia’s obligation to do (a) and (b) requires you
to contact the Kia Consumer Assistance Center and
provide all materials needed by them to carry out those
obligations to you. The Center can be contacted at the
address or phone number provided in the Kia Owner
Satisfaction and Assistance Section of this manual, or
can also be found at the Kia website at http://www.kia.
com.
Parts replaced under any warranties in the Manual
become the property of Kia.
1. The Warranty Period
The New Vehicle Limited Warranty is divided into
various warranty periods. For the purpose of all
warranties contained in this Manual(other than
warranties on replacement parts or accessories
installed after the Kia Vehicle was placed into use),
the warranty period begins on the Date of First
Service. “Date of First Service” means the first date
the Kia Vehicle is delivered to the first retail
purchaser, is leased or is placed into service as a
company vehicle use (e.g., as a demonstrator, rental
or fleet vehicle), whichever is earliest. Moreover,

• Air Conditioner Refrigerant Charge
Air conditioner refrigerant charge is covered for the
first 12 months of the warranty period regardless of
mileage. Over the balance of the warranty period,
refrigerant charge is covered only when replenished
as part of a warranty repair.
• Audio / Entertainment System
An original equipment radio, compact disk player,
OE DVD / RSE (Rear Seat Entertainment System)
or navigation system is covered for the first
36months/36,000 miles.
• Battery (Non Hybrid)
The original equipment battery is covered by a
limited warranty for a period of 36 months / 36,000
miles. During 36 months / 36,000 miles of the
warranty period, a defective battery will be replaced
at no cost to you. Kia will cover diagnostic,
installation and replacement battery costs.
Kia will not reimburse you for any portion of the
cost of a non-Kia replacement battery.
* Refer to page 24 for Hybrid Battery Pack
Coverage.
• Brake and Clutch Linings
Brake linings, including pads and shoes, and clutch
linings are warranted for 12 months/12,000 miles,
whichever comes first, if they fail to function
properly during normal use. Brake linings are
designed to wear out as part of the process of
stopping your vehicle safely and consistently while
providing reasonable levels of noise and vibration
during normal use. Brake or clutch linings function
properly during normal use even if they need
replacement in less than the full warranty period.
Rather, most replacements at lower mileage are
required by driver usage habits which can cause high
rates of wear. In addition, brake lining wear is
substantially increased by environmental conditions
such as exposure to road salt or due to regular
driving in stop and go rush hour traffic. The more
wear factors which are present, the more rapid the
wear. Resulting repairs and replacements of linings
are not covered by your warranty.

Subject to the other terms and conditions of this limited
warranty manual, Kia America, Inc. (“Kia”) warrants that it
will arrange for independent Kia brand service facilities at
locations of its choice to provide for the repair of your
vehicle if it fails to function properly during normal use.
Such service facilities will remedy such failures to function
properly at Kia America, Inc.’s expense, if you present your
vehicle to such a service facility during its normal operating
hours, provide sufficient information to permit a proper
identification and diagnosis of the failure to function, and
permit the facility adequate time to perform the necessary
repair. As this obligation is subject to the terms, conditions
and limitations of this Manual, you should refer to the
manual to understand which repairs and replacements are
covered by this warranty. If an Authorized Kia Dealer
declines or fails to carry out a proper repair or replacement
of a factory installed part covered by this limited warranty
without charge to you, Kia will (a) determine if the repair or
replacement requested by you is covered by this Anti
Perforation Limited Warranty and, if so, (b) obtain
cooperation from an Authorized Kia Dealer to conduct
such repair or replacement without charge to you. However,
Kia’s obligation to do (a) and (b) requires you to contact the
Kia Consumer Assistance Center and provide all materials
needed by them to carry out those obligations to you. The
Center can be contacted at the address or phone number
provided in the Kia Owner Satisfaction and Assistance
Section of this manual, or can also be found at the Kia
website at http://www.kia.com.

caused in whole or in part by a failure to maintain
the Kia Vehicle in accordance with the procedures
specified in paragraph 3. “Your Responsibilities”
3. Your Responsibilities
Inspect the body sheet metal panels of your Kia Vehicle
on a regular basis (at least monthly) to detect any chips
or scratches in the paint or protective coating and to
repair them immediately.
Special care should be taken to protect your Kia Vehicle
from corrosion under the following conditions:
• If you drive on salted roads, or if you drive near the
ocean, flush the underbody as needed, and at least
weekly with clean unsalted water.
• It is important to keep the drain holes in the lower
edges of the body clear.

any event which may cause damage to the paint,
have your Kia Vehicle repaired as soon as possible.

fertilizers, deicing salt, or other corrosive substances,
be sure that such materials are well packaged and
sealed. Any leakage of such materials will void this
warranty where the leakage has occurred.

recommend that you install stone guards behind
each wheel.
