Driving while distracted can result in a loss of vehicle control that may lead to an accident, severe personal injury and death. The driver’s primary responsibility is in the safe and legal operation of a vehicle, and any handheld devices, other equipment or vehicle systems which take the driver’s eyes, attention and focus away from the safe operation of a vehicle or that are not permissible by law should never be used during operation of the vehicle.

VIDEOS & QR CODES - SMARTPHONES, TABLETS AND COMPUTERS
Kia provides a number of video resources to assist you with becoming familiar with the features and functions found in your
Kia vehicle. You can access these resources by snapping the QR Codes with your smartphone/tablet (mobile devices) or by
visiting the following website: www.youtube.com/KiaFeatureVideos. Continue reading for a more in-depth look at QR
Codes and for instructions on how to use them.
REMINDER: When accessing videos on your mobile device, standard cellular data rates may apply.
One-Click Fuel Cap Video To view a video on your mobile device, snap this QR Code or visit the listed website.
www.youtube.com/KiaFeatureVideos
What are QR Codes?
A QR Code is a square, two-dimensional barcode that
can be read by mobile devices loaded with an appropriate
barcode or QR Code Reader App. The app reads the
barcode image and then launches/uploads the specific
information the code contains, such as URLs, text,
photos, videos and so much more.
How to Use QR Codes
If you have a mobile device with a QR Code Reader App,
you can snap the code with your phone and you’ll be
provided a video with additional information pertaining
to the topic. For example, in the Fuel Cap section, if you
would like additional information, just snap the code with
your mobile device to view the selected Kia Features &
Functions Video.
How to snap a QR Code
1. With your mobile device, download a QR Code Reader
App. With many devices, you can do this through an
app store or marketplace
2. Open the QR Code Reader App on your mobile device
3. The app will utilize your device’s camera. Center the
code in the camera viewing area:
•
With some apps, as soon as the app recognizes
the code, it will launch the corresponding video
•
With other apps, you will have to snap or take a
picture of the code. The app will then launch the
corresponding video
•
For operation specifics, refer to the instructions
that come with the QR Code Reader App
QR CODE
1. If you’re having trouble scanning codes, check the following: •The code should be centered and focused in your mobile device’s camera screen •Consider moving your device closer to or farther away from the code •The code should be well lit, without significant shadow
2. After scanning, you may experience a “connection error” message or a “connecting” message with no subsequent response. These messages typically indicate that your device is having trouble connecting to the Internet
QUICK TIPS
•Avoid scanning from a significant angle •Confirm that the device’s app supports 2D QR Code scanning •Try another QR Code Reader App; not all apps are created equal

The TPMS indicator functions as both the Low Tire Pressure
Light and the TPMS Malfunction Indicator.
The TPMS indicator is designed to illuminate if it detects one or more
tires is significantly underinflated, the vehicle has a spare tire installed
without TPMS or the outside temperature becomes significantly lower.
The Low Tire Pressure Position
Indicator A is displayed on the LCD
screen in the Instrument Cluster when
the tire(s) is underinflated. Inflate
the tire(s) to specifications using an
accurate tire pressure gauge to turn
off the Low Tire Pressure Indicator .
See the front driver’s door jamb for
PSI specifications.
When there is a problem with the TPMS, the TPMS Malfunction Indicator
will blink for approximately one minute and then illuminate. See the
dealer for service.
Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)†2 6
REMINDERS:
• Check the recommended tire pressure label located on the left side of the driver's door jamb, visible when the door is opened.
• Consult your dealer for service if the Low Tire Pressure Light remains illuminated after inflating your tire(s).
• Personal electronic devices (such as laptops, wireless chargers, remote start systems, etc.) may interfere with the TPMS system, which may cause the Malfunction Warning Indicator (Check Engine Light) to illuminate.
Fuel Economy
Several factors contribute to your vehicle’s fuel economy, such as maintenance of your vehicle, driving style, environmental
conditions, vehicle weight and vehicle aerodynamics. Below are some tips on how to help improve fuel economy:
For more information on Fuel Economy, you can snap the QR Code above to view a video or refer to the Owner's Manual.
For illustrative purposes only. Your actual display, buttons and/or features may vary.
•Keep your vehicle in good condition with regular
maintenance
•Don’t let the engine idle longer than necessary
•Drive at a moderate speed, accelerating smoothly and at
a moderate rate
•Keep tires inflated to the recommended pressure
•Travel lightly, without carrying unnecessary weight in
your vehicles
•Avoid placing large or heavy items on roof racks
•Avoid hilly, winding or poorly maintained roads

•Even with TPMS, tire pressure should be checked manually at least once a month. Only adjust tire pressure on “cold tires” that have been sitting for approximately 20 minutes, and tires that are not hot in temperature from direct sunlight or heat
•For proper maintenance and optimal fuel economy, maintain the recommended tire inflation pressures and stay within the load limits and weight distribution recommended for your vehicle
•In winter or cold weather, the TPMS light may illuminate if the tire pressure was adjusted to the recommended tire inflation pressure during warm weather
