Engine Generation/Regeneration
The engine and regenerative braking
systems charge the hybrid battery
during deceleration.
(Engine & Wheel ➞Battery)
Engine Brake/Regeneration
The engine compression can be
used to slow the vehicle. The regen-
erative braking system can be used
to charge the hybrid battery.

Starting the Hybrid System
1.Carry the smart key into the vehi-cle.
2.Make sure the parking brake is firmly applied.
3.Place the shift lever in the P(Park) position.
In N (neutral) position, the engine
(hybrid system) will not start.
4.Depress the brake pedal.
5.Press the engine start/stop button.
6.The engine should be started with- out pressing the accelerator. In
extremely cold weather or after the
vehicle has not been operated for
several days, let the engine warm
up without depressing the acceler-
ator.
• Even if the smart key is in thevehicle, it muse be within range of
the antenna before the engine
(hybrid system) will not start.
ton is in the ACC or ON position,
if any door is open, the system
checks for the smart key. If the
smart key is not in the vehicle, the
warning, "Key is not in vehicle"
will come on, and if all doors are
closed, the chime will also sound
for about 5 seconds. The indica-
tor will turn off while the vehicle is
moving. Keep the smart key in the
vehicle when using the ACC posi-
tion or if the vehicle engine is on. If the starting procedure is fol-
lowed, the "READY" symbol on
the instrument cluster will turn on.

ECONOMICAL and SAFE
OPERATION of Hybrid system
Drive smoothly. Accelerate at amoderate rate and maintain a
steady cruising speed. Don't make
"jack-rabbit" starts. Don't race
between stoplights.
Avoid excessive idling.
Obey the speed limit.
Monitor the Eco Guide Indicator.
Use Cruise control Whenever
Possible.
Use Auto Mode when setting the
Air Conditioning.
Avoid heavy traffic whenever pos-
sible. Always maintain a safe dis-
tance from other vehicles so you
can avoid unnecessary braking.
This also reduces brake wear.
The regenerative brake generates energy when the vehicle deceler-
ates. When the hybrid battery power is
low, the hybrid system automatical-
ly recharges the hybrid battery.
When the engine runs in "N" posi- tion, the hybrid system cannot gen-
erate electricity. The hybrid battery
cannot recharge in "N" position.
Please refer to chapter 5.
✽ ✽ NOTICE
When the hybrid system is in
READY mode, the engine will auto-
matically start and stop as needed.
The "READY" symbol will illumi-
nate in the cluster when the system
is operational.

Service plug
This service plug (1) located in the
rear trunk as shown should always
be pulled out to disconnect and turn
off the hybrid system.
IMPORTANT: Wait 5 minutes after
this lever is disconnected to work
on the car. This ensures that all
remaining electrical charge in the
system is dissipated.
Some Special Characteristics
of the Hybrid Vehicle.
Hybrid vehicles sound different than
gasoline engine vehicles. When the
hybrid system operates, you may
hear a sound from the hybrid battery
system behind the rear seat. If you
apply the accelerator pedal rapidly,
you may hear a sound. when you
apply the brake pedal, you may hear
a sound from the regenerative brake
system. When the hybrid system is
turned off or on, you may hear a
sound in the engine compartment. If
you depress the brake pedal repeat-
edly when the hybrid system is
turned on, you may hear a sound in
the engine compartment. None of
these sounds indicate a problem.
They are normal characteristics of
hybrid vehicles.
When the hybrid system is turned
on, the engine may or may not start
immediately. This does not indicate a
malfunction. If the "READY" symbol
is on, the hybrid system is operating.
Even if the gasoline engine is off, you
can operate the vehicle.

WARNING
If a vehicle accident occurs:
1.Stop the vehicle and shift thetransmission into "P" posi-
tion.
And then depress the parking
brake.
2.Turn off the Hybrid system by pushing the Engine Start/Stop
Button.
3.Evacuate to the safe place.
4.Call emergency services for help and let them know the
vehicle is a Hybrid vehicle.
Do not touch high voltage
cables, connectors and pack-
age modules. High voltage com-
ponents 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 may occur
causing injury or death.
WARNING
If a fire occurs:
1.Stop the vehicle and shift the transmission in to "P" posi-
tion, and then depress the
parking brake. To ventilate
smoke from a fire, open the
windows if possible.
2.Turn off the Hybrid system by pushing the Engine Start/Stop
Button.
3.Leave the vehicle and evacu- ate to the safety place.
4.Call emergency services for help and let them know the
vehicle is a Hybrid vehicle.
If you have an extinguisher,
extinguish a fire carefully.
Do not touch high voltage
cables, connectors and pack-
age modules. High voltage com-
ponents 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 may occur
causing injury or death.
WARNING
If a submersion in water occurs:
If your vehicle was flooded and
has soaked carpeting or water
on the flooring, you should not
try to start the Hybrid system.
Never touch the high voltage
cables, connectors and pack-
age modules, because an elec-
trical shock may occur causing
injury or death. High Voltage
cables are orange in color.
Have the car towed to an
authorized Kia dealer.

When the hybrid vehicle shuts
off
When the high voltage battery or 12-
volt battery discharges, or fuel tank is
empty, the hybrid system may not
operate.
If the Hybrid system stops operating
while the vehicle is moving, reduce
the vehicle speed gradually. Pull your
vehicle off the road in a safe area,
and shift the transmission in to Park
(P) position and;
1.Turn on the hazard warning flash-ers.
2.Using the Start button, turn the system OFF. Try to start the Hybrid
system by applying the brake
pedal and pushing the start button.
3.If the Hybrid system will not oper- ate, refer to "EMERGENCY
STARTING" in chapter 6. Before you try to jump start the vehi-
cle,
confirm the fuel level. If the fuel level
is low add more fuel before attempt-
ing as emergancy start.

No special break-in period is need-
ed. By following a few simple precau-
tions for the first 1,000 km (600
miles) you may add to the perform-
ance, economy and life of your vehi-
cle.
Do not race the engine.
While driving, keep your enginespeed (rpm, or revolutions per
minute) between 2,000 rpm and
4,000 rpm.
Do not maintain a single speed for long periods of time, either fast or
slow. Varying engine speed is
needed to properly break-in the
engine.
Avoid hard stops, except in emer- gencies, to allow the brakes to seat
properly.
Don't tow a trailer during the first 2,000 km (1,200 miles) of opera-
tion. By following a few simple precau-
