Illuminated POWER button
Whenever the front door is opened,
the POWER button will illuminate for
your convenience. The light will go off
after about 30 seconds when the
door is closed.
When all entrances are closed, if you
lock the vehicle by using the smart
key, the light will go off immediately.
POWER button position

To turn off the vehicle, press the
POWER button with the shift lever in
the P (Park) position. When you
press the POWER button without the
shift lever in the P (Park) position, the
POWER button will not change to the
OFF position but to the ACC posi-
tion.
In an emergency situation while the
vehicle is in motion, you are able to
turn the vehicle off and to the ACC
position by pressing the POWER
button for more than 2 seconds or 3
times successively within 3 seconds.
If the vehicle is still moving, you can
restart the vehicle without depress-
ing the brake pedal by pressing the
POWER button with the shift lever in
the N (Neutral) position.
ACC (Accessory)
Press the POWER button while it is
in the OFF position without depress-
ing the brake pedal.
If the POWER button is in the ACC
position for more than 1 hour, the
POWER button is turned off auto-
matically to prevent battery dis-
charge.

If the battery is weak or the smartkey does not work correctly, you
can start the vehicle by pressing
the POWER button with the smart
key.
The side with the lock button
should contact the POWER button
directly.
When you press the POWER but-
ton directly with the smart key, the
smart key should contact the
POWER button at a right angle. When the stop lamp fuse is blown,
you can't start the vehicle normally.
Replace the fuse with a new one. If
it is not possible, you can start the
vehicle by pressing the POWER
button for 10 seconds while it is in
the ACC position. The vehicle can
start with depressing the brake
pedal.
Do not press the POWER button for
more than 10 seconds except when
the stop lamp fuse is blown.

Driving your vehicle
Use high quality ethylene gly-
col coolant
Your vehicle is delivered with high qual-
ity ethylene glycol coolant in the cool-
ing system. It is the only type of coolant
that should be used because it helps
prevent corrosion in the cooling sys-
tem, lubricates the water pump and
prevents freezing. Be sure to replace
or replenish your coolant in accor-
dance with the maintenance schedule
in section 7. Before winter, have your
coolant tested to assure that its freez-
ing point is sufficient for the tempera-
tures anticipated during the winter.
Check battery and cables
Winter puts additional burdens on
the battery system. Visually inspect
the battery and cables as described
in section 7. The level of charge in
your battery can be checked by an
authorized Kia dealer or a service
station.
To keep locks from freezing
To keep the locks from freezing,
squirt an approved de-icer fluid or
glycerine into the key opening. If a
lock is covered with ice, squirt it with
an approved de-icing fluid to remove
the ice. If the lock is frozen internally,
you may be able to thaw it out by
using a heated key. Handle the heat-
ed key with care to avoid injury.
Use approved window washer
anti-freeze in system
To keep the water in the window
washer system from freezing, add an
approved window washer anti-freeze
solution in accordance with instruc-
tions on the container. Window wash-
er anti-freeze is available from an
authorized Kia dealer and most auto
parts outlets. Do not use coolant or
other types of anti-freeze as these
may damage the paint finish.
Don’t let your parking brake
freeze
Under some conditions your parking
brake can freeze in the engaged
position. This is most likely to happen
when there is an accumulation of
snow or ice around or near the rear
brakes or if the brakes are wet. If
there is a risk the parking brake may
freeze, apply it only temporarily while
you put the gear shift lever in P
(Park, automatic transaxle) or in first
or reverse gear (manual transaxle)
and block the rear wheels so the
vehicle cannot roll. Then release the
parking brake.
CAUTION- Snow chains
Chains that are the wrong sizeor improperly installed candamage your vehicle's brakelines, suspension, body andwheels.
Stop driving and retighten the chains any time you hear themhitting the vehicle.

position.
If you move the switch to the OFF

✽ ✽
NOTICE
If you need to park your vehicle for
prolonged periods more than 1
month, move the transportation fuse
switch to the OFF position to pre-
vent the battery being discharged.
Motor compartment fuse
replacement
1. Turn the ignition switch and all
other switches off.
2. Remove the fuse panel cover by pressing the tab and pulling the
cover up.
3. Check the removed fuse; replace it if it is blown. To remove or insert
the fuse, use the fuse puller in the
motor compartment fuse panel.
4. Push in a new fuse of the same rating, and make sure it fits tightly
in the clips. If it fits loosely, consult
an authorized Kia dealer.
