phone charging pad including the
smart key. If there is any foreign
object on the pad other than a
smart phone, the wireless charging
function may not operate properly.
2. Place the smart phone on the cen-
ter of the wireless charging pad.
3. The indicator light will change to

If you leave the smart phone on the
charging pad when the vehicle igni-
tion is in OFF, the vehicle will alert
you through warning messages and
sound (applicable for vehicles with
voice guidance function) after the
‘Good bye’ function on the instru-
ment cluster ends.

NOTICE
• If it is not possible to close the tray
cover due to the size of your smart
phone or because the tray cover
has been broken, do not use the
wireless smart phone charging
function.
• Even if you're not charging your
smart phone, keep the tray cover
closed at all times when it is left in
the tray. Driving with the tray
cover opened will increase the
chance of accidents and result in
injury as you're highly likely to get
distracted by the smart phone.
• When the interior temperature of
the wireless charging system rises
above a set temperature, the wire-
less charging will cease to func-
tion. After the interior tempera-
ture drops below the threshold,
the wireless charging function will
resume.
• The wireless charging may not
function properly when there is a
heavy accessory cover on the
smart phone.
(Continued)WARNING - Distracted
driving
Driving while distracted can
result in a loss of vehicle con-
trol that may lead to an acci-
dent, 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 sys-
tems which take the driver’s
eyes, attention and focus away
from the safe operation of a
vehicle or which are not permis-
sible by law should never be
used during operation of the
vehicle.CAUTION - Liquid in
Wireless Smart Phone
Charger
To prevent liquid from damaging
the wireless smart phone charg-
ing system in your vehicle,
securely close the tray cover
when charging your phone.
WARNING - Metal in
Wireless Charging System
If any metallic object such as
coins placed between the wire-
less charging system and the
smart phone, the charging may
be disrupted. Also, the metallic
object may heat up and poten-
tially damage the charging sys-
tem. If there is any metallic
object between the smart phone
and the charging pad, immedi-
ately remove the smart phone.
Remove the metallic object
after it has cooled down.

• The wireless charging will stop
when the smart key is moved out
of the vehicle with the ignition in
ON.
• Charging may be temporarily
interrupted when smart key detec-
tion is activated. (when turning on
ignition, opening or closing the
doors)
• The wireless charging will stop
when the vehicle is turned OFF.
• The wireless charging will stop
when the smart phone is not in
complete contact with the wireless
charging pad.
• Items equipped with magnetic
components such as credit cards,
telephone cards, bank-books, or a
transportation ticket may become
damaged during wireless charg-
ing.
• Place the smart phone on the cen-
ter of the charge pad for best
results. The smart phone may not
charge when placed near the rim
of the charging pad. When the
smart phone does get charged, it
may heat up excessively.
(Continued)(Continued)
• For smart phones without built-in
wireless charging system, an
appropriate accessory has to be
equipped in order to use the vehi-
cle's wireless charging system.
• Cellphones that are not certified
for wireless smart phone charging
standards (QI) may not be able to
charge.
• Self-protection features in some
smart phones could slow down or
stop charging.
• In some cases, the wireless charg-
ing indicator could not turn green
even when the phone is fully
charged.
• Smart phones of some manufac-
turers may display messages on
weak current. This is due to the
particular characteristic of the
smart phone and does not imply a
malfunction on wireless charging
function.
(Continued)(Continued)
• The indicator light of some manu-
facturers' smart phones may still
be yellow after the smart phone is
fully charged.
This is due to the particular char-
acteristic of the smart phone and
not a malfunction of the wireless
charging system.
• When any smart phone without a
wireless charging function or a
metallic object is placed on the
charging pad, a small noise may
sound. This small sound is due to
the vehicle discerning compatibili-
ty of the object placed on the
charging pad. It does not affect
your vehicle or the smart phone in
any way.

Maintenance
✽ ✽
NOTICE- Remodeling
Prohibited
Do not rewire your vehicle in any
way as doing so may affect the per-
formance of several safety features
in your vehicle. Rewiring your vehi-
cle may also void your warranty and
cause you to be responsible for any
subsequent vehicle damage which
may result.
✽ ✽
NOTICE- Window tinting
precaution
Window tint(especially metallic
film) might cause communication
disorder or poor radio reception,
and malfunction of the automatic
lighting system due to excessive
change of illumination inside the
vehicle. The solution used might also
flow into electric, electronic devices
causing disorder and failure.
Inner panel fuse replacement
1. Turn the ignition switch and all
other switches off.
2. Open the fuse panel cover.
If the switch is located in the “OFF”
position, a caution indicator will be
displayed in the cluster.
CAUTION
Visually inspect the battery cap
to ensure it is securely closed.
If the battery cap is not securely
closed, moisture may enter the
system and damage the electri-
cal components.
WARNING
- Electrical wiring repairs
All electrical repairs should be
performed by authorized Kia
dealerships using approved Kia
parts. Using other wiring com-
ponents, especially when retro-
fitting AVN or theft alarm sys-
tem, remote engine control, car
phone or radio may cause vehi-
cle damage and increase the
risk of a vehicle fire.
