Driving your vehicle
Key reminder warning chimeIf the driver’s door is opened and the
ignition key is left in with the ignition
switch in the LOCK or ACC position,
the key reminder warning chime will
sound. This is to prevent you from
locking your keys in the vehicle.
Low tire pressure
telltale (if equipped)The low tire pressure telltale comes
on for 3 seconds after the ignition
switch is turned to the ON position.
If the warning light does not come
on, or continuously remains on after
coming on for about 3 seconds when
you turned the ignition switch to the
ON position, the Tire Pressure
Monitoring System is not working
properly. If this occurs, have your
vehicle checked by an authorized
KIA dealer as soon as possible.
This warning light will also illuminate
if one or more of your tires is signifi-
cantly under-inflated. You should
stop and check your tires as soon as
possible. If the warning light illumi-
nates while driving, reduce vehicle
speed immediately and stop the
vehicle. Avoid hard braking and over-
correcting at the steering wheel.
Inflate the tires to the proper pres-
sure as indicated on the vehicle’s tire
information placard.
WARNING
- Low tire pres-sure
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.

1) Open the driver-side door.
2) Turn the parklights OFF and ON again using the light switch on the
steering column.
