Downhill Brake Control (DBC)†8AWD (All-Wheel Drive) Lock*
DBC helps drivers maneuver down steep hills by
automatically applying braking inputs, allowing
drivers to concentrate on steering.
Press button A to turn DBC ON/OFF.
When you select AWD LOCK mode (indicator is illuminated) by pressing the AWD LOCK button B,
the AWD LOCK mode increases the drive power when driving on wet pavement, snow-covered roads
and/or on unpaved roads.
• This mode is used for climbing or descending sharp grades, driving on unpaved roads, driving on
sandy and muddy roads, etc., to improve traction
• This mode automatically begins to deactivate at speeds above 38 mph and is shifted to AWD
AUTO mode at speeds above 38 mph. If the vehicle decelerates to speeds below approximately 38
mph, however, the transfer mode is shifted into AWD LOCK mode again
When the AWD LOCK mode is deactivated, a shock may be felt as the drive power is delivered
entirely to the front wheels. This shock is not a mechanical failure.
The AWD system is a supplemental system only. It is the driver’s responsibility to drive carefully depending on road and traffic conditions. Refer to section 5 in the Owner’s Manual for more information.
(Type A shown. Located below gear shift)
•
•When on, DBC will turn OFF when button is pressed again or vehicle speed is over 38 mph
•If the red indicator illuminates, the DBC system may have malfunctioned. Take your vehicle to an authorized Kia dealer and have the system checked
QUICK TIPS
REMINDER: DBC defaults to OFF when ignition is cycled.
The DBC system is a supplemental system and does not replace the need for the driver to apply the brakes. Pay attention to road and traffic conditions and be prepared to depress the brakes.
Refer to section 5 in the Owner’s Manual for more information.

Forward/Reverse Parking Distance Warning (PDW)†6
(Type A shown. Located below gear shift)
REMINDERS:
• If the vehicle is moving at speeds over 3 mph, the system may not activate correctly
• When more than two objects are sensed at the same time, the closest one will be recognized first
Forward/Reverse Parking Distance Warning (PDW) is not a substitute for proper and safe backing-up procedures. Always drive safely and use caution when moving the vehicle forward or in reverse. Forward/Reverse Parking Distance Warning (PDW) may not detect every object in front of or behind the vehicle.
Image is for illustrative purposes only and features or functions may vary on actual vehicle.
The Forward/Reverse Parking Distance Warning (PDW ) is a supplemental system that is designed to
assist the driver by chiming if certain objects are detected within the sensing area to the front and
rear of the vehicle when moving forward or backing up.
The system is activated when the ignition is ON and the vehicle is in R (Reverse). To deactivate the
system, press the Forward/Reverse Parking Distance Warning (PDW ) button C.
