means you still have braking on two
wheels even if one of the dual sys-
tems should fail.
With only one of the dual systems
working, more than normal pedal
travel and greater pedal pressure are
required to stop the vehicle.
Also, the vehicle will not stop in as
short a distance with only a portion
of the brake system working.
If the brakes fail while you are driv-
ing, shift to a lower gear for addition-
al engine braking and stop the vehi-
cle as soon as it is safe to do so.
Driving the vehicle with a warning
light ON is dangerous. If the Parking

ed by an authorized Kia dealer.

Features of your vehicle
Battery saver function
The purpose of this feature is toprevent the battery from being dis-
charged if the lights are left in the
ON position. The system automati-
cally shuts off the parking lights 30
seconds after the ignition key is
removed and the driver’s door is
opened and closed.
With this feature, the parking lights will turn off automatically if the driver
parks on the side of the road at night
and opens the driver’s side door.
If necessary, to keep the parking
lights on when the ignition key is
removed, perform the following:
1) Open the driver-side door.
2) Turn the parking lights OFF and ON again using the light switch
on the steering column.

If you turn the ignition switch to the
ACC or OFF position with the head-
lights ON, the headlights remain on

pressing the lock button on the trans-
mitter (or smart key) twice or turning
the light switch to the OFF position.
If the driver gets out of the vehicle
through other doors (except driver’s

automatically. Therefore, it can cause
the battery to be discharged. In this
case, make sure to turn off the lamp
before getting out of the vehicle.
