Voice Recognition and Phone Contact Tips
The system may have difficulty understanding
some accents or uncommon names. Improve the
performance by making a few simple changes
to your phone contacts, listed below. To help
optimize the Bluetooth® Wireless Technology Voice
Recognition system, see other tips and reminders
under Quick Tips:
•Use full names (first and last names) vs. short or
single-syllable names (“John Smith” vs. “Dad,"
“Smith Residence” vs. “Home”)
•Avoid using special characters, emojis or
hyphenated names (@, &, #, /, -, *, +, etc.)
•Avoid using acronyms (“In Case of Emergency” vs. “ICE”) or words with
all capital letters
•Spell words completely, no abbreviations (“Doctor Smith” vs. “Dr. Smith”)
•The system may register or pair multiple Bluetooth® devices. See the Car Infotainment System Quick Reference Guide for more information on setup and limitations
•Bluetooth® Music Streaming: If the Bluetooth® music is inaudible or too low, turn up the volume on the connected phone
•When placing a call, speak in a natural, moderate tone, with clear pronunciation. The system may have trouble recognizing commands if you speak too softly or too loudly
•Always wait for the beep before speaking any commands
•Close windows and sunroof and turn off A /C. The noise from an A /C fan operating at higher speeds or wind noise from open windows or sunroof can interfere with Voice Recognition
•Press the talk button and say “Help” to get a list of available commands
QUICK TIPS
Bluetooth® Wireless Technology†5,23 (continued)

Volume level between different audio modes:
– When switching between audio modes (AM, FM, Bluetooth® Audio, etc.), the audio system saves the previous volume level you were listening to. For example, if you were listening to FM radio at volume level 20 then switched to Bluetooth® Audio and adjusted the volume level to 30, the volume level will be at 20 when you switch back to FM radio
– When using Bluetooth® Audio, the overall volume is dependent on your device’s volume. If the volume is turned down low on your device it will remain low even if the system volume is turned up
•Using Android Auto™ or Apple CarPlay® and a supported smartphone, the phone’s Navigation App may be displayed on the head unit
•To download map updates for the navigation system, go to update.kia.com. Check for updates that are generally available twice a year
•At any time, you can interrupt the Voice Command Feedback by pressing the TALK button on the Steering Wheel
•Prolonged use of the audio system in ACC mode may drain the vehicle’s battery

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.
