Emergency trunk safety release
Your vehicle is equipped with an emer-
gency trunk release cable located inside
the trunk. The lever glows in the dark
when the trunk lid is closed. If someone
is inadvertently locked in the trunk, mov-
ing the handle in the direction of the
arrow will release the trunk latch mecha-
nism and open the trunk.
OGH026009
WARNING
No one should be allowed to occu-
py the trunk of the vehicle at any
time. If the trunk is partially or total-
ly latched and the person is unable
to get out, severe injury or death
could occur due to lack of ventila-
tion, exhaust fumes and rapid heat
build-up, or because of exposure to
cold weather condition s. The trunk
is also a highly dangerous location
in the event of a crash because it is
not a protected occupant space but
merely a part of the vehicle’ s crush
zone.
WARNING
• If a per son is locked in the trunk,
they can pull the emergency
release to open the trunk lid.
• We recommend that car s be kept
locked and keys be kept out of
the reach of children, and that
parents teach their children about
the danger s of playing in trunks.

• Do not light any fire around a ga s
station. DO NOT u se matches or a
lighter and DO NOT SMOKE or
leave a lit cigarette in your vehicle

i s highly flammable and can,
when ignited, re sult in explosion
by flames.
• If a fire breaks out during refuel- ing, leave the vicinity of the vehi-
cle, and immediately contact the
manager of the ga s station or
contact the police and local fire
department. Follow any safety
instructions they provide.CAUTION
• Make sure to refuel with ga soline
(unleaded fuel) only for the ga so-
line engine vehicles.
• Check to make sure the fuel filler cap is securely closed after refu-
eling.
• If the fuel filler cap requires replacement, u se only a genuine
Kia cap or the equivalent speci- fied for your vehicle. An incorrectfuel filler cap can result in a seri- ous malfunction of the fuel sys-tem or emission control system.Correct replacement caps are
available at authorized Kia deal- er s.
• Do not spill fuel on the exterior surfaces of the vehicle. Any typeof fuel spilled on painted surfaces
may damage the paint.
• A loose fuel filler cap may cause the “Check Engine” (MalfunctionIndicator) light in the instrument panel to illuminate unnecessarily.
• If the fuel filler lid will not open in cold weather because the areaaround it is frozen, push or lightly tap the lid.
