and then launches/uploads the speci c 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 Instrument Cluster Overview 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

App . With many devices, you can do this through an app
store or marketplace
