Voice Recognition and Phone
Contact Tips:
The Kia Voice Recognition System
may have difficulty understanding
some accents or uncommon
names. When using Voice
Recognition to place a call, speak in
a moderate tone, with clear pronun-
ciation
To maximize the use of Voice
Recognition, consider these guide-
lines when storing contacts:
1) Use full names vs. short or single syllable names (“John Smith” vs.
“Dad”, “Smith Residence” vs.
“Home”)
2) Avoid using special characters or hyphens (@, &, #, /, -, *, +, etc.)
3) Avoid using acronyms (“In Case Emergency” vs. “ICE”)
4) Spell words completely, no abbre- viations (“Doctor Goodman” vs.
“Dr. Goodman”)
Contact List Best Practices
1) Do not use acronyms (i.e., use“County Finance Department”
instead of “CFD”).
2) If a name is not recognized from the contact list, change it to a
more descriptive name (e.g., use
“Grandpa Joseph” instead of “Pa
Joe”).

Driving your vehicle
Starting the hybrid system
with a smart key (if equipped)
1.Carry the smart key or leave itinside the vehicle.
2.Make sure the parking brake is firmly applied
3.Place the transaxle shift lever in P (Park).
4.Press the ENGINE START/STOP button while depressing the brake
pedal.
It should be started without depress-
ing the accelerator. 5.Do not wait for the engine to warm
up while the vehicle remains sta-
tionary.
Start driving at moderate engine
speeds. (Steep accelerating and
decelerating should be avoided.)
If the "READY" indicator is turned off while you are in motion, do not
attempt to move the shift lever to the
P(Park) position. If traffic and road
conditions permit, you may keep the
previous lever position while the
vehicle is still moving and press the
engine start/stop button in an
attempt to restart the hybrid system
without pressing the brake pedal.
If the hybrid system starts, the "READY" symbol comes on. If the
"READY" symbol does not come on,
have the vehicle checked and
repaired by an authorized Kia dealer. Even if the smart key is in the vehi-
cle, but is far away from you, the
engine may not start.
When the ENGINE START/STOP button is in the ACC position or
above, if any door is opened, the
system checks for the smart key. If
the smart key is not in the vehicle,
the warning "Key not in vehicle" will
illuminate on the LCD display. And
if all doors are closed, the chime
will sound for 5 seconds. The indi-
cator or warning will turn off while
the vehicle is moving. Always have
the smart key with you.
The hybrid system will start only
when the smart key is in the vehicle.
