Safety features of your vehicle
Air bags are not designed to inflate inrear collisions, because occupants are
moved backward by the force of the
impact. In this case, inflated air bags
would not be able to provide any addi-
tional benefit. Front air bags may not inflate in side
impact collisions, because occupants
move to the direction of the collision,
and thus in side impacts, frontal air bag
deployment would not provide addi-
tional occupant protection.
However, if equipped with side impact
and curtain air bags, the air bags may
inflate depending on the intensity, vehi-
cle speed and angles of impact. In an angled collision, the force of
impact may direct the occupants in a
direction where the air bags would not
be able to provide any additional bene-
fit, and thus the sensors may not
deploy any air bags.

3 Just before impact, drivers often brake
heavily. Such heavy braking lowers the
front portion of the vehicle causing it to
“ride” under a vehicle with a higher
ground clearance. Air bags may not
inflate in this "under-ride" situation
because deceleration forces that are
detected by sensors may be signifi-
cantly reduced by such “under-ride”
collisions. Air bags may not inflate in rollover acci-
dents because air bag deployment
would not provide protection to the
occupants.
However, if equipped with side impact
and curtain air bags, the air bags may
inflate when the vehicle is rolled over
by a side impact collision. Air bags may not inflate if the vehicle
collides with objects such as utility
poles or trees, where the point of
impact is concentrated to one area and
the full force of the impact is not deliv-
ered to the sensors.

center view through the rear window is
seen. Make this adjustment before you
start driving.
D140101AHMDay/night rearview mirror
(if equipped)Make this adjustment before you start
driving and while the day/night lever is in
the day position.
Pull the day/night lever toward you to
reduce the glare from the headlights of
the vehicles behind you during night driv-
ing.Remember that you lose some rearviewclarity in the night position.
D140102AHM-EE-C1Electric chromic mirror (ECM) (if equipped)The electric rearview mirror automatical-
ly controls the glare from the headlights
of the vehicles behind you in nighttime or
low light driving conditions. The sensor
mounted in the mirror senses the light
level around the vehicle, and automati-
cally controls the headlight glare from the
vehicles behind you.
When the engine is running, the glare is
automatically controlled by the sensor
mounted in the rearview mirror.
Whenever the shift lever is shifted into
reverse (R), the mirror will automatically
go to the brightest setting in order to
improve the drivers view behind the vehi-
cle.
MIRRORS
WARNING -
Rear visibility
Do not place objects in the rear
seat or cargo area which would
interfere with your vision through
the rear window.
CAUTION
When cleaning the mirror, use a paper towel or similar materialdampened with glass cleaner. Do not spray glass cleaner directly onthe mirror. It may cause the liquid cleaner to enter the mirror housing.
WARNING
Do not adjust the rearview mirror
while the vehicle is moving. This
could result in loss of control, and
an accident which could cause
death, serious injury or property
damage.

WARNING -
Rearview mir-
rors
The right outside rearview mirroris convex. Objects seen in the
mirror are closer than they
appear.
Use your interior rearview mirror or direct observation to deter-
mine the actual distance of fol-
lowing vehicles when changing
lanes.
CAUTION
Do not scrape ice off the mirrorface; this may damage the surfaceof the glass. If ice should restrict the movement of the mirror, do notforce the mirror for adjustment. To remove ice, use a deicer spray, or asponge or soft cloth with very warm water.
CAUTION
If the mirror is jammed with ice, donot adjust the mirror by force. Usean approved spray de-icer (not radi- ator antifreeze) to release thefrozen mechanism or move the vehicle to a warm place and allowthe ice to melt.

F060200AHM-U1
TPMS (Tire Pressure
Monitoring System)
malfunction indicator
(if equipped)
The TPMS malfunction indicator
comes on and stays on when there is
a problem with the Tire Pressure
Monitoring System. If the system is
able to correctly detect an under-
inflation warning at the same time as
system failure then it will illuminate
both the TPMS malfunction and the
low tire pressure telltale e.g. if front
left sensor fails, the TPMS malfunc-
tion indicator turns on, but if front
right, rear left, or rear right tire is
under-inflated, the low tire pressure
telltale may turn on at the same time
as the TPMS malfunction indicator.
Have the system checked by an
authorized KIA dealer as soon as
possible to determine the cause of
the problem.
TPMS
CAUTION
The TPMS malfunction indica- tor may be illuminated if thevehicle is moving around elec-tric power supply cables orradio transmitter such as atpolice stations, governmentand public offices, broadcast-ing stations, military installa-tions, airports, or transmittingtowers, etc. This can interferewith normal operation of theTire Pressure MonitoringSystem (TPMS).
(Continued)
(Continued) If there is a failed tire sensor, it is possible for the TPMS totemporarily learn a replace-ment sensor if closely drivento another vehicle that is alsoequipped with TPMS. In rarecases, this may temporarilydelay the TPMS malfunctionindicator from turning on.
The TPMS malfunction indica- tor may be illuminated if snowchains or some electronicdevices, such as notebookcomputers, are used in thevehicle. These can interferewith normal operation of theTire Pressure MonitoringSystem (TPMS).

6F060300AAM-ECChanging a tire with TPMS
If you have a flat tire, the Low Tire
Pressure telltale will turn on. Have
the flat tire repaired by an authorized
KIA dealer as soon as possible or
replace the flat tire with the tempo-
rary spare tire.✽ ✽
NOTICENEVER 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.
After you replace the low pressure
tire with the spare tire, the TPMS
malfunction indicator or the Low Tire
Pressure telltale may illuminate after
restarting and about 20 minutes of
continuous driving. 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 telltale will turn off.
If the low pressure and TPMS mal-
function indicators do not turn off
after about 20 minutes of continuous
driving, please visit an authorized
KIA dealer.
You may not be able to identify a low
pressured tire by simply looking at it.
Always use a good quality tire pres-
sure gauge to measure the tire's
inflation pressure. Please note that a
tire that is hot (from being driven) will
have a higher pressure measure-
ment than a tire that is cold (from sit-
ting stationary for at least 3 hours
and driven less than 1 mile during
that 3 hour period). Allow the tire to
cool before measuring the inflation
pressure.
Always be sure the tire is cold before
inflating to the recommended pres-
sure.
A cold tire means the vehicle has
been sitting for 3 hours and driven for
less than 1 mile in that 3 hour period.
CAUTION
Do not use any tire sealant if
your vehicle is equipped witha Tire Pressure MonitoringSystem. The liquid sealant candamage the tire pressure sen-sors.
In order for the system to cor- rectly monitor tires for under-inflation, there should be atotal of exactly 4 sensors fit-ted to each of the four wheels.There should be no other sen-sors in the vehicle includingthe spare tire since this couldcause the system to monitorthe wrong sensors.
