Driving your vehicle
The All Wheel Drive (AWD) system
delivers engine power to the front
and rear wheels for maximum trac-
tion. AWD is useful when extra trac-
tion is required on road, such as,
when driving on slippery, muddy
such as wet, or snow-covered roads.
These vehicles are not designed for
challenging off-road use.
It is always important when traveling
on unpaved roads that the driver
carefully reduces the speed to a level
that does not exceed the safe oper-
ating speed for those conditions. In
general, unpaved roads provide less
traction and braking effectiveness
than normal road conditions.
* AWD : All Wheel Drive
FWD : Front Wheel Drive
The driver must be especially alert to
avoid driving on slopes which tilt the
vehicle to either side.
NOTICE
If the AWD system warning light
( ) illuminates, this indicates that
there is a malfunction in the AWD
system.
If this occurs, we recommend that
the system be checked by an author-
ized Kia dealer.
