1. The warning may not sound
sequentially depending on the
speed and shapes of the objects
detected.
2. The parking assist system may malfunction if the vehicle bumper
height or sensor installation has
been modified. Any non-factory
installed equipment or accessories
may also interfere with the sensor
performance.
3. Sensor may not recognize objects less than 30 cm (12 in) from the
sensor, or it may sense an incor-
rect distance. Use with caution.
4. When the sensor is frozen or stained with snow or water, the
sensor may be inoperative until
the stains are removed using a
soft cloth.
5. Do not push, scratch or strike the sensor with any hard objects that
could damage the surface of the
sensor. Sensor damage could occur.
✽ ✽NOTICE
This system can only sense objects
within the range and location of the
sensors, it can not detect objects in
other areas where sensors are not
installed. Also, small or slim objects,
or objects located between sensors
may not be detected.
Always visually check in front and
behind the vehicle when driving.
Be sure to inform any drivers in the
vehicle that may be unfamiliar with
the system regarding the system’s
capabilities and limitations.
Self-diagnosis
If you don’t hear an audible warning
sound or if the buzzer sounds inter-
mittently when shifting the shift lever
into the R (Reverse) position, this
may indicate a malfunction in the
parking assist system. If this occurs,
have the system checked by an
authorized Kia dealer.
Your new vehicle warranty does not
cover any accidents or damage to the
vehicle or injuries to its occupants
related to a parking assist system.
Always drive safely and cautiously.

not support some functions.
1)
Bluetooth®Wireless Technology
Handsfree phone calls
2) Operations during a call (Private, Switch, Out Vol. controls)
3) Download call history saved to the
Bluetooth®Wireless Technology
device
4) Download contacts saved to the
Bluetooth®Wireless Technology
device
5) Automatic contacts/call history download when
Bluetooth®
Wireless Technology is connected
6) Automatic
Bluetooth®Wireless
Technology device connection
when the vehicle is started
7)
Bluetooth®Wireless Technology
audio streaming playback
Before connecting the audio sys- tem to your device, make sure your
device supports
Bluetooth®Wireless
Technology. Even if your device supports
Bluetooth®Wireless Technology, a
Bluetooth®Wireless Technology
connection cannot be established
if the device’s
Bluetooth®Wireless
Technology function is switched off.
Search and connect with the
Bluetooth®
Wireless Technology function enabled.
Pair or connect
Bluetooth®Wireless
Technology devices to the audio
system with the vehicle at a standstill.
If a
Bluetooth®Wireless Technology
connection is lost due to abnormal
conditions while a
Bluetooth®
Wireless Technology device is connect-
ed (communication range exceed-
ed, device power OFF, communi-
cation errors, etc.), the disconnect-
ed
Bluetooth®Wireless Technology
device is searched for and auto-
matically reconnected.
If you want to disable the
Bluetooth®
Wireless Technology device auto-
connect function, turn the
Bluetooth®Wireless Technology
function OFF on your device.
Consult the user manuals for indi-
vidual devices to see whether
Bluetooth®Wireless Technology is
supported. Handsfree call quality and volume
may vary depending on the type of
Bluetooth®Wireless Technology
device.
Some
Bluetooth®Wireless Technology
devices are subject to intermittent
Bluetooth®Wireless Technology
connection failures. In this case,
use the following method.
1) Turn the
Bluetooth®Wireless
Technology function off on your
Bluetooth®Wireless Technology
device ➟Turn it on and try
again.
2) Delete the paired device from both the audio system and
Bluetooth®Wireless Technology
device, then pair again.
3) Power down your
Bluetooth®
Wireless Technology device ➟
Turn it on and try again.
4) Completely remove the battery from your
Bluetooth®Wireless
Technology device; reinsert it,
reboot, and attempt connection.
5) Restart the vehicle and reat- tempt connection.

WARNING- Starting
vehicle
Never press the POWER button
while the vehicle is in motion
except in an emergency. If the
vehicle stops while the vehicle
is in motion, this would result in
loss of directional control and
braking function, which could
cause an accident.
WARNING- Leaving the Vehicle
To avoid unexpected or sudden
vehicle movement, never leave
your vehicle if the transmission
is not locked in the P (Park)
position and the parking brake
is fully engaged. Before leaving
the driver's seat, always make
sure the shift lever is engaged in
P (Park), set the parking brake
fully and shut the engine off.

Reduction gear operation
When stopped on an incline, do not
hold the vehicle with the motor
power. Use the service brake or the
parking brake.
Transaxle ranges
The indicator in the instrument clus-
ter displays the shift lever position
when the POWER button is in the
ON position.P (Park)
Always come to a complete stop
before shifting into P (Park). This
position locks the gear and prevents
the drive wheels from rotating.
Shifting into P (Park) while the vehi-
cle is in motion will cause the drive
wheels to lock which will cause you
to lose control of the vehicle.
R (Reverse)
Use this position to drive the vehicle
backward.
WARNING- Leaving the
vehicle
Before leaving the driver’s seat,
always make sure the shift lever
is in the P (Park) position; then
set the parking brake fully and
shut the vehicle off. Do not use
the P position in place of the
parking brake. Always make
sure the shift lever is latched in
the P position and set the park-
ing brake fully. Unexpected and
sudden vehicle movement can
occur if these precautions are
not followed.
CAUTION- Reduction gear
To avoid damage to your reduc-tion gear, do not accelerate thevehicle in R (Reverse) or anyforward gear position with thebrakes on. The reduction gearmay be damaged if you shiftinto P (Park) while the vehicle isin motion.
CAUTION- Shifting
Always come to a complete stopbefore shifting into or out of R(Reverse); you may damage thegear if you shift into R (Reverse)while the vehicle is in motion,except when “Rocking the vehi-cle” explained in this section.

Severe weather conditions in the
winter result in greater wear and
other problems. To minimize the
problems of winter driving, you
should follow these suggestions:
Snowy or icy conditions
To drive your vehicle in deep snow, it
may be necessary to use snow tires
on your tires. If snow tires are need-
ed, it is necessary to select tires
equivalent in size and type of the
original equipment tires. Failure to do
so may adversely affect the safety
and handling of your vehicle.
Furthermore, speeding, rapid accel-
eration, sudden brake applications,
and sharp turns are potentially very
hazardous practices.
During deceleration, use regenera-
tive braking to the fullest extent.
Sudden brake applications on snowy
or icy roads may cause skids to
occur. You need to keep sufficient
distance between the vehicle in
operation in front of your vehicle.
Also, apply the brake gently.
Snow tires
If you mount snow tires on your vehi-
cle, make sure they are radial tires of
the same size and load range as the
original tires. Mount snow tires on all
four wheels to balance your vehicle’s
handling in all weather conditions.
Keep in mind that the traction provid-
ed by snow tires on dry roads may
not be as high as your vehicle's orig-
inal equipment tires. You should drive
cautiously even when the roads are
clear. Check with the tire dealer for
maximum speed recommendations.
Do not install studded tires without
first checking local, state and munic-ipal regulations for possible restric-tions against their use.

WARNING- Snow tire
size
Snow tires should be equivalent
in size and type to the vehicle's
standard tires. Otherwise, the
safety and handling of your vehi-
cle may be adversely affected.
