Features of your vehicle
The TPMS cannot alert you tosevere and sudden tire damage
caused by external factors.
If you notice any vehicle instability, immediately take your foot off the
accelerator pedal, apply the brakes
gradually with light force, and slow-
ly move to a safe position off the
road.
Electronic Parking Brake
(EPB) Warning Light(if equipped)
This warning light illuminates:
Once you set the ignition switch or Engine Start/Stop Button to the ON
position.
- It illuminates for approximately 3seconds and then goes off.
When there is a malfunction with the EPB.
In this case, have your vehicle
inspected by an authorized Kia
dealer.
✽ ✽ NOTICE- Electronic Parking
Brake (EPB) Warning Light
The Electronic Parking Brake
(EPB) Warning Light may illumi-
nate when the Electronic Stability
control (ESC) Indicator Light comes
on to indicate that the ESC is not
working properly (This does not
indicate malfunction of the EPB).
Master Warning light (if equipped)
This warning light informs the driv- er of the following situations
- LED head lamp malfunction (if equipped)
- Smart Cruise Control with Stop & Go malfunction (if equipped)
- Smart Cruise Control with Stop & Go radar blind (if equipped)

The Master Warning Light illumi-
nates if one or more of the above
warning situations occur.
If the warning situation is solved, the
master warning light will be turned
off.
EPBWARNING - Low tire pressure
Significantly low tire pressure makes the vehicle unstable
and can contribute to loss of
vehicle control and increased
braking distances.
Continued driving on low pres- sure tires will cause the tires to
overheat and fail.

The parking distance warning-reverse
assists the driver during backward
movement of the vehicle by chiming if
any object is sensed within a distance
of 47 in. (120 cm) behind the vehicle.
This system is a supplemental system
and it is not intended to nor does it
replace the need for extreme care and
attention of the driver. The sensing
range and objects detectable by the
back sensors (➀ ) are limited.
Whenever backing-up, pay as much
attention to what is behind you as you
would in a vehicle without a parking
distance warning-reverse.
Operation of the parking dis-
tance warning-reverse
Operating condition
This system will activate when the indicator on the parking distance
warning-reverse OFF button is not
illuminated. If you desire to deacti-
vate the parking distance warning-
reverse, press the parking distance
warning-reverse OFF button again.
(The indicator on the button will
illuminate.) To turn the system on,
press the button again. (The indi-
cator on the button will go off.)
If the vehicle is moving at a speed
over 3 mph (5 km/h), the system
may not be activated.
This system will activate when backing up with the ignition switch
ON.
If the vehicle is moving at a speed
over 3 mph (5 km/h), the system
may not be activated correctly.
The sensing distance while the back-up warning system is in oper-
ation is approximately 47 in. (120
cm) at the rear bumper center
area, 23.5 in. (60 cm) at the rear
bumper side area.
PARKING DISTANCE WARNING-REVERSE (IF EQUIPPED)
WARNING - Parking dis-
tance warning-reverse
Never rely solely on the parking
distance warning-reverse.
Always perform a visual inspec-
tion to make sure the vehicle is
clear of all obstructions before
moving the vehicle in any direc-
tion. Stop immediately if you are
aware of a child anywhere near
your vehicle. Some objects may
not be detected by the sensors,
due to the object's size or mate-
rial.

surrounding the vehicle. Always drive
safely and use caution when parking.
The Surround View Monitor System
(SVM) can assist in parking by allow-
ing the driver to see around the vehi-
cle. Push the button into the [ON]
position to operate the system.
To cancel the system, push the but-
ton again. Operating conditions
- When the Engine Start/Stop
Button is ON position
- When the transmission is on D, N or R
- When the vehicle speed is not over 9 mph (15 km/h)
When the vehicle speed is over 9 mph (15 km/h), the SVM system is
turned off. If the vehicle speed then
decreases below 9 mph (15 km/h),
the SVM will not automatically turn
on again. To operate again, push
the SVM button.

Driving your vehicle
The Vehicle Stability Managementsystem is not a substitute for safe
driving practices but a supplemen-
tary function only. It is the respon-
sibility of the driver to always check
the speed and the distance to the
vehicle ahead. Always hold the
steering wheel firmly while driving.
Your vehicle is designed to activate according to the driver’s intention,
even with installed VSM. Always fol-
low all the normal precautions for
driving at safe speeds for the condi-
tions – including driving in inclement
weather and on a slippery road.Hill-start assist control (HAC)
A vehicle has the tendency to roll
back on a steep hill when it starts to
go after stopping. The Hill-start
Assist Control (HAC) prevents the
vehicle from rolling back by applying
the brakes automatically for about 2
seconds. The brakes are released
when the accelerator pedal is
depressed or after about 2 seconds.
The HAC is activated only for about 2
seconds, so when the vehicle is
starting off always depress the accel-
erator pedal.
Good braking practices
Check to be sure the parking brakeis not engaged and the parking
brake indicator light is out before
driving away.
Driving through water may get the brakes wet. They can also get wet
when the vehicle is washed. Wet
brakes can be dangerous! Your
vehicle will not stop as quickly if the
brakes are wet. Wet brakes may
cause the vehicle to pull to one side.
To dry the brakes, apply the brakes
lightly until the braking action
returns to normal, taking care to
keep the vehicle under control at all
times. If the braking action does not
return to normal, stop as soon as it
is safe to do so and call an author-
ized Kia dealer for assistance.
Don't coast down hills with the vehicle out of gear. This is extreme-
ly hazardous. Keep the vehicle in
gear at all times, use the brakes to
slow down, then shift to a lower
gear so that engine braking will
help you maintain a safe speed.
WARNING- Maintaining
Brake Pressure on Incline
HAC does not replace the need
to apply brakes while stopped on
an incline. While stopped, make
sure you maintain brake pres-
sure sufficient to prevent your
vehicle from rolling backward
and causing an accident. Don’t
release the brake pedal until you
are ready to accelerate forward.WARNING
For maximum protection, always
wear your seat belt. No system,
no matter how advanced, can
compensate for all driver error
and/or driving conditions.
Always drive responsibly.

Driving your vehicle
Limitation of the system
The Forward Collision-Avoidance
Assist (FCA) system is designed to
monitor the vehicle or pedestrians
ahead in the roadway through cam-
era recognition to warn the driver
that a collision is imminent, and if
necessary, apply emergency brak-
ing.
In certain situations, the camera may
not be able to detect the vehicle or
pedestrians ahead. In these cases,
the FCA system may not operate
normally. The driver must pay careful
attention in the following situations
where the FCA operation may be
limited.
Detecting vehicles
The sensor may be limited when:
The camera is covered object ordebris
Inclement weather such as heavy rain or snow obscures the field of
view of the camera
The camera recognition is limited
The vehicle in front is too small to be detected (for example a motor-
cycle or a bicycle, etc.)
The vehicle in front is an oversize vehicle or trailer that is too big to
be detected by the camera recog-
nition system. (for example a trac-
tor, trailer, etc.)
The camera's field of view is not well illuminated (either too dark or too
much reflection or too much back-
light that obscures the field of view)
The vehicle in front does not have their rear lights properly turned ON
or their rear lights are located
unusually.
The outside brightness changes suddenly, for example when enter-
ing or exiting a tunnelWARNING
The FCA system does notoperate when the vehicle is in
reverse.
The FCA system is not designed to detect other
objects on the road such as
animals.

ing speed in order to maintain a
safe distance.
