NOTICE
•In manual mode, the driver must
execute upshifts in accordance
with road conditions, taking care
to keep the engine speed below
the red zone.
•In manual mode, only the 6 for‐
ward gears can be selected. To re‐
verse or park the vehicle, move
the shift lever to the R (Reverse)
or P (Park) position as required.
•In manual mode, downshifts are
made automatically when the ve‐
hicle slows down. When the vehicle
stops, 1st gear is automatically
selected.
•In manual mode, when the engine
rpm approaches the red zone shift
points are varied to upshift auto‐
matically.
•To maintain the required levels of
vehicle performance and safety,
the system may not execute cer‐
tain gearshifts when the shift lev‐
er is operated.
(Continued)
(Continued)
•When driving on a slippery road,
push the shift lever forward into
the + (up) position. This causes the
transaxle to shift into the 2nd
gear which is better for appropri‐
ate driving on a slippery road.
Push the shift lever to the -
(down) side to shift back to the
1st gear.
Shift lock system
For your safety, the automatic trans‐
axle has a shift lock system which pre‐ vents shifting the transaxle from P
(Park) into R (Reverse) unless the brake
pedal is depressed.
To shift the transaxle from P (Park) in‐ to R (Reverse): 1. Depress and hold the brake pedal.
2. Start the hybrid system or turn the ignition switch to the ON position.
3. Move the shift lever. If the brake pedal is repeatedly de‐
pressed and released with the shift lev‐
er in the P (Park) position, a chattering noise & vibration near the shift lever
may be heard. This is a normal condi‐
tion.
WARNING
Always fully depress the brake pedalbefore and while shifting out of theP (Park) position into another posi‐tion to avoid inadvertent motion ofthe vehicle which could injure per‐sons in or around the vehicle.

If the EPB is applied while Auto Hold is
activated because of ESC (Electronic Stability Control) signal, a warning will
sound and a message will appear.
EPB malfunction indicator (if
equipped)
0+'
This warning light illuminates if the en‐
gine start/stop button is changed to the ON position and goes off in approxi‐
mately 3 seconds if the system is oper‐
ation normally. If the EPB malfunction indicator re‐
mains on, comes on while driving, or
does not come on when the ignition
switch or the engine start/stop button is changed to the ON position, this indi‐
cates that the EPB may have malfunc‐
tioned.
If this occurs, we recommend that the system be checked by an authorized
Kia dealer.
The EPB malfunction indicator may illu‐
minate when the ESC indicator comes on to indicate that the ESC is not work‐
ing properly, but it does not indicate a
malfunction of the EPB.
CAUTION
•The EPB warning light may illumi‐nate if the EPB switch operatesabnormally. Shut the engine offand turn it on again after a fewminutes. The warning light will gooff and the EPB switch will oper‐ate normally. However, if the EPBwarning light is still on, we recom‐mend that the system be checkedby an authorized Kia dealer.

ESC operation
ESC ON condition
-• When the engine start/stopbutton is turned ON, ESC
and ESC OFF indicator lights
illuminate for approximate‐
ly 3 seconds, then ESC is turned on.
• Press the ESC OFF button for at least half a second
after turning the ignition
ON to turn ESC off. (ESC
OFF indicator will illumi‐
nate). To turn the ESC on, press the ESC OFF button
(ESC OFF indicator light will
go off).
• When starting the engine, you may hear a slight tick‐
ing sound. This is the ESC
performing an automatic
system self-check and does not indicate a problem.
When operating
When the ESC is in operation, ESC indicator light blinks. • When the Electronic Stabili‐ ty Control is operating
properly, you can feel a
slight pulsation in the vehi‐
cle. This is only the effect of brake control and indi‐
cates nothing unusual.
• When moving out of the mud or slippery road, the
engine rpm (revolution per
minute) may not increase
even if you press the accel‐ erator pedal deeply. This is
to maintain the stability
and traction of the vehicle
and does not indicate a
problem.
ESC operation off
ESC OFF state
This car has 2 kinds of ESC off states.If the engine stops when ESC
is off, ESC remains off. Upon
restarting the engine, the ESCwill automatically turn on
again.

EARLY - When this condition is se‐lected, the initial Forward
Collision Warning is activa‐ted earlier than normal.This setting maximizesthe amount of distance
between the vehicle or
pedestrian ahead beforethe initial warning occurs.
NORMAL - When this condition is se‐
lected, the initial Forward
Collision Warning is activa‐ted normally. This settingallows for a nominalamount of distance be‐
tween the vehicle or pe‐
destrian ahead before theinitial warning occurs.
LATE - When this condition is se‐ lected, the initial Forward
Collision Warning is activa‐ted later than normal.
This setting reduces theamount of distance be‐
tween the vehicle or pe‐
destrian ahead before theinitial warning occurs.Prerequisite for activation
The AEB gets ready to be activated,when the AEB is selected on the LCD
display, and when the following prereq‐
uisites are satisfied.
- The ESC is activated.
- The driving speed is over 10 km/h.
(However, AEB is activated within
certain driving speed.)
- When recognizing the vehicle or the
pedestrian in front. (However, AEB
does not activate according to condi‐
tions in front and vehicle systems, but it notices only certain warnings.)
WARNING
•The AEB automatically activatesupon placing the ignition switch tothe ON position. The driver can de‐activate the AEB by canceling thesystem setting on the LCD display.
•The AEB automatically deactivatesupon canceling the ESC. When theESC is canceled, the AEB cannot beactivated on the LCD display.

•Set or cancel AEB with controllingswitches on steering wheel afterstopping the vehicle in a safe placefor your safety.
AEB warning message and
system control
The AEB produces warning messages
and warning alarms in accordance with the collision risk levels of followings like
vehicle’s sudden braking in front or lack
of vehicle to vehicle distance or collision to pedestrians. Also, it controls the

Operation
0+'-
• If a traffic sign that is relevant toyour vehicle is passed, the system
displays the information of the speed limits and no passing restrictions to
the driver.
• When the driver turns on the ignition, the system displays stored informa‐
tion of the speed limit before turning
off the ignition. • Sometimes different speed limits are
displayed for the same road. The in‐
formation displayed is depending on
the situation. Because, traffic signs
with additional sign (e.g rainy, ar‐
row...) are also detected and com‐ pared with vehicle interior data (e.g
wiper operation, turn signal...).
• The system can update the speed limit information without visible
speed limit signs in the following sit‐ uations. - When you change your driving di‐ rection with right or left or U turn‐ ing.
- When vehicle changes roads. (e.g. from highway to country road…)
- When you enter or exit into town or village.
NOTICE
If speed limit value has the differ‐
ence between cluster and naviga‐
tion, check the speed unit setting in

Jump starting can be dangerous if done
incorrectly. Therefore, to avoid harm to yourself or damage to your vehicle or
battery, follow the jump starting pro‐
cedures. If in doubt, we strongly rec‐ ommend that you have a competent
technician or towing service jump start
your vehicle.
CAUTION
Use only a 12-volt jumper system.You can damage a 12-volt startingmotor, ignition system, and otherelectrical parts beyond repair by useof a 24- volt power supply (eithertwo 12-volt batteries in series or a24-volt motor generator set).
WARNING
