carpet, make sure it attaches to the floor
mat anchor(s) in your vehicle. This keeps
the floor mat from sliding forward.The following must be observed when
installing ANY floor mat to the vehicle.
Ensure that the floor mats are secure-
ly attached to the vehicle's floor mat
anchor(s) before driving the vehicle.
Do not use ANY floor mat that cannot be firmly attached to the vehicle's floor
mat anchors.
Do not stack floor mats on top of one another (e.g. all-weather rubber mat on
top of a carpeted floor mat). Only a sin-
gle floor mat should be installed in
each position.
IMPORTANT - Your vehicle was manu-
factured with driver's side floor mat
anchors that are designed to securely
hold the floor mat in place. To avoid any
interference with pedal operation, Kia
recommends that only the Kia floor mat
designed for use in your vehicle be
installed.

ful not to depress the accelerator
pedal for a long period of time. It
may overheat the engine or exhaust
system and cause fire.
WARNING - Driving whileintoxicated
Do not drive while intoxicated.
Drinking and driving is dangerous.
Even a small amount of alcohol will
affect your reflexes, perceptions
and judgment. Driving while under
the influence of drugs is as danger-
ous as or more dangerous than

cle. When you make a sudden stop
or turn the steering wheel rapidly,
loose objects may drop on the floor

Up (+) : Push the lever forward once to
shift up one gear.
Down (-) : Pull the lever backwards once to shift down one gear.
In sports mode, the driver must exe- cute upshifts in accordance with road
conditions, taking care to keep the
engine speed below the red zone.
In sports mode, only the 6 forward gears can be selected. To reverse or
park the vehicle, move the shift lever to
the R (Reverse) or P (Park) position as
required.
In sports mode, downshifts are made automatically when the vehicle slows
down. When the vehicle stops, 1st gear
is automatically selected.
In sports mode, when the engine rpm approaches the red zone shift points
are varied to upshift automatically.
To maintain the required levels of vehi- cle performance and safety, the system
may not execute certain gearshifts
when the shift lever is operated. 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 smooth driving on a slippery road.
Push the shift lever to the -(down) side
to shift back to the 1st gear.Shift lock system (if equipped)
For your safety, the automatic transaxle
has a shift lock system which prevents
shifting the transaxle out of P (Park)
unless the brake pedal is depressed.
To shift the transaxle from P (Park) into R
(Reverse):
1. Depress and hold the brake pedal.
2. Start the engine or turn the ignition switch to the ON position.
3. Move the shift lever.
If the brake pedal is repeatedly
depressed and released with the shift
lever in the P (Park) position, a chattering
noise near the shift lever may be heard.
This is a normal condition.
WARNING - Shifting from park
Always fully depress the brake
pedal before and while shifting out
of the P (Park) position into anoth-
er position to avoid inadvertent
motion of the vehicle.
