3SRS careYour Supplemental Restraint System is
virtually maintenance-free. There are no
parts which you can service.
You must have the system serviced
under the following circumstances:
If an air bag ever inflates, the air bag
must be replaced. Do not try to remove
or discard the air bag by yourself. This
must be done by an authorized Kia
dealer.
If the air bag warning indicator light alerts you to a problem, have the air
bag system checked as soon as possi-
ble. Otherwise, your air bag system
may be ineffective.
When repairing or scrapping thevehicles Repairing steering wheel, instrument panel, center console or roofs, or
installing car audio around center con-
sole or painting front metal sheet could
disable the air bag system. Have them
checked by an authorized Kia dealer.
When leaving the vehicle at an autho- rized Kia dealer, inform the facility that
the vehicle is equipped with air bag
system, and leave the owner’s manual
in the vehicle.
Since air bag system contains explo- sive chemical substances, contact an
authorized Kia dealer when scrapping
the vehicle.
WARNING
- No mainte-
nance or repair
Do not modify your steering
wheel, seat or any other part of
the Supplemental Restraint
System. Modification could make
the system inoperable.
Do not work on the system’s com- ponents or wiring. This could
cause the air bags to inflate inad-
vertently, possibly seriously injur-
ing someone. Working on the sys-
tem could also disable the sys-
tem so that the air bags would not
deploy in a collision.
Any work on the SRS system, such as removing, installing,
repairing, or any work on the
steering wheel must be per-
formed by a qualified Kia techni-
cian. Improper handling of the air
bag system may result in serious
personal injury or death.
WARNING
- No modifica-tion
Do not modify any part of the air
bag system. Modification could
make the air bag system ineffective
or could cause unnecessary
deployment.

sure that all warning lights are off. If any
are still on, this indicates a situation that
needs attention. When releasing the
parking brake, the brake system warning
light should go off. The fuel warning light
will stay on if the fuel level is low.
Air bag warning lightThis warning light will illuminate for
approximately 6 seconds each time you
turn the ignition switch to the ON posi-
tion.

problem with your ABS system. Contact
an authorized Kia dealer as soon as pos-
sible.
Electronic brake force
distribution (EBD) sys-
tem warning lightIf two warning lights illumi-
nate at the same time while
driving, your vehicle has a

Driving your vehicle
Disc brakes wear indicator Your vehicle has disc brakes.
When your brake pads are worn and
new pads are required, you will hear a
high-pitched warning sound from your
front brakes or rear brakes (if equipped).
You may hear this sound come and go or
it may occur whenever you depress the
brake pedal.
Please remember that some driving con-
ditions or climates may cause a brake
squeal when you first apply (or lightly
apply) the brakes. This is normal and
does not indicate a problem with your
brakes.
Parking on curbed streets When parking your vehicle on an uphillgrade, park as close to the curb as
possible and turn the front wheels
away from the curb so that the front
wheels will contact the curb if the vehi-
cle moves backward.
When parking your vehicle on a down- hill grade, park as close to the curb as
possible and turn the front wheels
toward the curb so that the front
wheels will contact the curb if the vehi-
cle moves forward.
WARNING
- Brake wear
This brake wear warning sound
means your vehicle needs service.
If you ignore this audible warning,
you will eventually lose braking per-
formance, which could lead to a
serious accident.
CAUTION
Always replace brake pads as com-plete front or rear axle sets.
CAUTION
To avoid costly brake repairs, do not continue to drive with wornbrake pads.

What to do in an emergency
Low tire pressure
indicator
Low tire pressure
position indicatorWhen the tire pressure monitoring
system warning indicators are illumi-
nated, one or more of your tires is
significantly under-inflated. And the
low tire pressure position indicator
light will indicate which tire is signifi-
cantly under-inflated by illuminating
the corresponding position light.
Immediately reduce your speed,
avoid hard cornering and anticipate
increased stopping distances. You
should stop and check your tires as
soon as possible. Inflate the tires to
the proper pressure as indicated on
the vehicle’s placard or tire inflation
pressure label located on the driver’s
side center pillar outer panel. If you
cannot reach a service station or if
the tire cannot hold the newly added
air, replace the low pressure tire with
the compact spare tire.The Low Tire Pressure and Position
indicators will remain on when the
low pressure tire is in the vehicle
before you have the low pressure tire
repaired and replaced on the vehicle.
However, if the low pressure tire is
not in the vehicle, the Low Tire
Pressure and Position indicators will
go off and the TPMS malfunction
indicator will go on after a few min-
utes because the compact spare tire
is not equipped with a tire pressure
sensor.
CAUTION
In winter or cold weather, the low
tire pressure indicator may beilluminated if the tire pressurewas adjusted to the recommend-ed tire inflation pressure in warmweather. It does not mean yourTPMS is malfunctioning becausethe decreased temperature leadsto a proportional lowering of tirepressure.
When you drive your vehiclefrom a warm area to a cold areaor from a cold area to a warmarea, or the outside temperaturesignificantly increases ordecreases, you should checkthe tire inflation pressure andadjust the tires to the recom-mended tire inflation pressure.

What to do in an emergency85TPMS (Tire pressure
monitoring system)
malfunction indicatorThe TPMS malfunction indicator
comes on and stays on when there is
a problem with the Tire Pressure
Monitoring System. If Front Left sen-
sor fails, the TPMS malfunction indica-
tor comes on, but if Front Right, Rear
Left, or Rear Right tire is under-inflat-
ed, the low tire pressure and position
indicators may come on together with
the TPMS malfunction indicator.
Have the system checked by an
authorized Kia dealer as soon as
possible to determine the cause of
the problem.
✽ ✽NOTICE• The TPMS malfunction indicator
may be illuminated if the vehicle is
moving around electric power
supply cable or radio transmitter
such as police stations, govern-
ment and public offices, broad-
casting stations, military installa-
tions, airports, or transmitting
tower, etc. this can interfere with
normal operation of the Tire
Monitoring System (TPMS).
• The TPMS malfunction indicator may be illuminated if some elec-
tronic devices, such as notebook
computer, are used in the vehicle.
This can interfere with normal
operation of the Tire Monitoring
System (TPMS).Changing a tire with TPMSIf you have a flat tire, the Low Tire
Pressure and Position indicators will
come on. Have the flat tire repaired
by an authorized Kia dealer as soon
as possible or replace the flat tire
with the compact spare tire. NEVER
use a puncture-repairing agent to
repair and/or inflate a low pressure
tire. If used, you will have to replace
the tire pressure sensor. Each wheel is equipped with a tire
pressure sensor mounted inside the
tire behind the valve stem. You must
use TPMS specific wheels. It is rec-
ommended that you always have
your tires serviced by an authorized
Kia dealer as soon as possible.
Even if you replace the low pressure
tire with the compact tire, the Low
Tire Pressure and Position indicators
will remain on when the low pressure
tire is in the vehicle. However, if the
low pressure tire is not in the vehicle,
the Low Tire Pressure and Position
indicators will go off and the TPMS
malfunction indicator will go on after
a few minutes because the compact
spare tire does not have a sensor.
Once the low pressure tire is re-
inflated to the recommended pres-
sure and installed on the vehicle, the
TPMS malfunction indicator and the
low tire pressure and position indica-
tors will extinguish within a few min-
utes.
If the indicators are not extinguished
after a few minutes, please visit an
authorized Kia dealer.

WARNING
- 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.
