ECO mode KIA Sorento 2007 1.G Owner's Manual

i
Thank you for choosing a Kia vehicle.
When you require service, remember that your dealer knows
your vehicle best. Your dealer has factory-trained technicians,
recommended special tools, genuine Kia replacement parts and
is dedicated to your complete satisfaction.
Because subsequent owners require this important information
as well, this publication should remain with the vehicle if it is
sold.
This manual will familiarize you with operational, mainte-
nance and safety information about your new vehicle. It is sup-
plemented by a Warranty and Consumer Information manual
that provides important information on all warranties regarding
your vehicle.
We urge you to read these publications carefully and follow the
recommendations to help assure enjoyable and safe operation
of your new vehicle.
Kia offers a great variety of options, components and features
for its various models.
Therefore, the equipment described in this manual, along with
the various illustrations, may not all be applicable to your par-
ticular vehicle.
The information and specifications provided in this manual
were accurate at the time of printing. Kia reserves the right to
discontinue or change specifications or design at any time
without notice and without incurring any obligation. If you
have questions, always check with your Kia Dealer.
We assure you of our continuing interest in your motoring
pleasure and satisfaction in your Kia vehicle.

Installing a child restraint system For safety reasons, we recommend that
the child restraint system be used in the
rear seats.
Never place a rear-facing child
restraint in the front passenger seat,
because of the danger that an inflat-
ing passenger side air bag could
impact the rear-facing child restraint
and kill the child.
Since all passenger safety belts move
freely under normal conditions and only
lock under extreme or emergency condi-
tions (emergency lock mode), you must
manually change these safety belts to
the auto lock mode to secure a child
restraint.
(Continued)
Never allow a child to stand up or
kneel while the vehicle is moving.
Never use an infant carrier or child seat that "hooks" over a
seatback. It will not provide ade-
quate protection in an accident.
Never allow a child to be held while they are in a moving vehi-
cle, as this could result in serious
injury to the child in the event of
an accident or a sudden stop.
Holding a child in a moving vehi-
cle does not provide the child
with any protection during an
accident, even if the person hold-
ing the child is wearing a seat
belt.
WARNING
- Child seat
installation
Before installing the childrestraint system, read the instruc-
tions supplied by the child
restraint system manufacturer.
If the safety belt does not operate as described in this section, have
the system checked immediately
by your authorized Kia dealer.
Failure to observe this manual's instructions regarding child
restraint system and the instruc-
tions provided with the child
restraint system could increase
the chance and/or severity of
injury in an accident.

3Your new mirror comes with an integrat-
ed HomeLink Universal Transceiver,
which allows you to program the mirror to
activate your garage door(s), estate gate,
home lighting, etc. The mirror actually
learns the codes from your various exist-
ing transmitters.
ProgrammingYour vehicle may require the ignition
switch to be turned to the ACC position
for programming and/or operation of
HomeLink. It is also recommended that a
new battery be replaced in the hand-held
transmitter of the device being pro-
grammed to HomeLink for quicker train-
ing and accurate transmission of the
radio-frequency.
Follow these steps to train your
HomeLink mirror:
HOMELINK® WIRELESS CONTROL SYSTEM (IF EQUIPPED)
WARNING
When programming the
HomeLink® Wireless Control
System, you may be operating a
garage door or gate operator.
Make sure that people and objects
are out of the way of the moving
door or gate to prevent potential
harm or damage.
(Continued)
(Continued)
Do not use HomeLink with anygarage door opener that lacks the
safety stop and reverse feature as
required by federal safety stan-
dards. (This includes any garage
door opener model manufactured
before April 1, 1982.) A garage
door opener which cannot detect
an object, signaling the door to
stop and reverse, does not meet
current federal safety standards.
Using a garage door opener with-
out these features increases risk
of serious injury or death. For
more information, call 1-800-355-
3515 or on the internet at
www.homelink.com.
Retain the original transmitter for future programming procedures
(i.e., new vehicle purchase). It is
also suggested that upon the sale
of the vehicle, the programmed
HomeLink buttons be erased for
security purposes (follow step 1
in the “Programming” portion of
this text).

3Rolling code programmingTo train a garage door opener (or other
rolling code equipped devices) with the
rolling code feature, follow these instruc-
tions after completing the “Programming”
portion of this text. (A second person
may make the following training proce-
dures quicker & easier.)
4. Locate the “learn” or “smart” button on
the device’s motor head unit. Exact
location and color of the button may
vary by product brand. If there is diffi-
culty locating the “learn” or “smart” but-
ton, reference the device’s owner’s
manual or contact HomeLink at 1-800-
355-3515 or on the internet at
www.homelink.com.
5. Press and release the “learn” or “smart” button on the device’s motor
head unit. You have 30 seconds to
complete step number 6.
6. Return to the vehicle and firmly press and release the programmed
HomeLink button up to three times.
The rolling code equipped device
should now recognize the HomeLink
signal and activate when the
HomeLink button is pressed. The
remaining two buttons may now be
programmed if this has not previously
been done. Refer to the
“Programming” portion of this text.
Operating HomeLink To operate, simply press the pro-
grammed HomeLink button. Activation
will now occur for the trained product
(garage door, security system, entry door
lock, estate gate, or home or office light-
ing). For convenience, the hand-held
transmitter of the device may also be
used at any time. The HomeLink
Wireless Controls System (once pro-
grammed) or the original hand-held
transmitter may be used to activate the
device (e.g. garage door, entry door lock,
etc.). In the event that there are still pro-
gramming difficulties, contact HomeLink
at 1-800-355-3515 or on the internet at
www.homelink.com.
Erasing programmed HomeLink
buttonsTo erase the three programmed buttons
(individual buttons cannot be erased):
Press and hold the left and centerbuttons simultaneously, until the indi-
cator light begins to flash (approxi-
mately 20 seconds). Release both but-
tons. Do not hold for longer than 30
seconds.
HomeLink is now in the train (or learning)
mode and can be programmed at any
time.

Reprogramming a single
HomeLink buttonTo program a device to HomeLink using
a HomeLink button previously trained,
follow these steps:
1. Press and hold the desired HomeLinkbutton. Do NOT release until step 4
has been completed.
2. When the indicator light begins to flash slowly (after 20 seconds), position the
hand-held transmitter 1 to 3 inches
away from the HomeLink surface.
3. Press and hold the hand-held trans- mitter button (or press and “cycle” - as
described in “Canadian Programming”
above).
4. The HomeLink indicator light will flash, first slowly and then rapidly. When the
indicator light begins to flash rapidly,
release both buttons.
The previous device has now been
erased and the new device can be acti-
vated by pushing the HomeLink button
that has just been programmed. This pro-
cedure will not affect any other pro-
grammed HomeLink buttons.
Gate operator programming &
canadian programmingDuring programming, your hand-held
transmitter may automatically stop trans-
mitting. Continue to press and hold the
HomeLink button (note steps 2 through 4
in the “Programming” portion of this text)
while you press and re-press (“cycle”)
your handheld transmitter every two sec-
onds until the frequency signal has been
learned. The indicator light will flash
slowly and then rapidly after several sec-
onds upon successful training.
