Driving while distracted can result in a loss of vehicle control that may lead to an accident, severe personal injury and death. The driver’s primary responsibility is in the safe and legal operation of a vehicle, and use of any handheld devices, other equipment or vehicle systems which take the driver’s eyes, attention and focus away from the safe operation of a vehicle or that are not permissible by law should never be used during operation of the vehicle.

VIDEOS & QR CODES
*IF EQUIPPED 2
ONE-CLICK FUEL CAP VIDEO
To view a video on your mobile device, snap this QR Code or visit the listed website. Refer to page 2 for more information.
QR Codes
Kia provides a number of video resources to assist you with
becoming familiar with the features and functions found
in your Kia vehicle. You can access these resources by
snapping the QR Codes with your smartphone/tablet
(mobile devices) or by visiting the following website:
www.youtube.com/KiaFeatureVideos. Continue reading
for a more in-depth look at QR Codes and for instructions
on how to use them.
What are QR Codes?
A QR Code is a square, 2-dimensional Bar Code that can
be read by mobile devices loaded with an appropriate Bar
Code or QR Code Reader app. The app reads the Bar Code
image and then launches/uploads the specific 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 Kia One-Click Fuel Cap 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
1.
With your mobile device, download a QR Code Reader
App. With many devices, you can do this through an App
Store or Marketplace
2. Open the QR Code Reader App on your mobile device
3.
The app will utilize your device’s camera. Center the
code in the camera viewing area:
§
With some apps, as soon as the app recognizes the
code, it will launch the corresponding video
§
With other apps, you will have to snap or “take a
picture” of the code. The app will then launch the
corresponding video
§
For operation specifics, refer to the instructions that
come with the QR Code Reader app
Quick Tips
1.
If you’re having trouble scanning codes, check the following:
§ The code should be centered and focused in your mobile device’s camera screen
§ Consider moving your device closer to or farther away from the code
§ The code should be well lit, without significant shadow
§ Avoid scanning from a significant angle
§ Confirm that the device’s app supports 2D QR Code scanning
§ Tr y another QR Code Reader app; not all apps are created equal
2.
After scanning, you may experience a “connecting” message appears and then nothing happens or there’s a “connection error” message. These messages typically indicate that your device is having trouble connecting to the Internet.
REMINDER: When accessing videos on your mobile device, standard cellular data rates may apply.

Normal Sensitivity: The Driver Attention Warning system alerts
the driver if it detects driver fatigue or inattentive driving practices.
High Sensitivity: The Driver Attention Warning system alerts
the driver if it detects driver fatigue or inattentive driving practices
faster than Normal mode.
If the DAW System is activated, the DAW information will appear
on the LCD Display B when you select the ASSIST mode .
A message, “Consider taking a break,” appears on the LCD display
and a warning sounds to suggest the driver to take a break when
the driver’s attention level is below one bar C.
REMINDERS:
§ The set-up of the DAW System will be maintained, as selected, when the ignition is cycled
§ When activated, the DAW System does not display “Consider taking a break” message when the total trip driving time is less than 10 minutes
§ The DAW System will enter a standby mode if the camera does not detect the lanes and/or the driving speed remains under 40 mph

TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING VIDEO
To view a video on your mobile device, snap this QR Code or visit the listed website. Refer to page 2 for more information.

Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)† 26
The TPMS indicator functions as both Low Tire Pressure
Light and TPMS Malfunction Indicator.
The TPMS indicator is designed to illuminate if it detects
one or more tires is significantly underinflated, if a spare
tire has been installed that does not have a TPMS device,
or when the outside temperature drops considerably.
The LCD screen in the instrument cluster will display the
Low Tire Pressure indicator A showing which tire(s) are
underinflated.
§ Inflate tire(s) to specifications using an accurate digital
tire pressure gauge. See front driver’s door jamb for
PSI specification
§ When there is a problem with the TPMS, the TPMS
Malfunction Indicator will blink for approximately one
minute then illuminate. See dealer for service.
Quick Tips
§ Even with TPMS, tire pressure should be checked manually at least once a month. Only adjust tire pressure on “cold tires”
§
For proper maintenance, safety and optimal fuel economy, maintain recommended tire inflation pressure and stay within the load limits and weight distribution recommended for your vehicle
§
In winter or cold weather, the TPMS light may illuminate if the tire pressure was adjusted to the recommended tire inflation pressure during warm weather
REMINDERS:
§ Check the recommended tire pressure label located on the left side of driver’s door jam, visible when the door is open.
§ Consult your dealer for service if Low Tire Pressure Light remains illuminated after inflating your tire(s).
