Review of electric vehicle
An electric vehicle is driven using a bat
-
tery and an electric motor. While general
vehicles use an internal combustion
engine and gasoline as fuel, electric
vehicles use electrical energy that is
charged & stored inside the high voltage
battery.
As a result, electric vehicles are eco-
friendly in that they do not require fuel
and do not emit exhaust gases.
Characteristics of electric vehi
-
cles
It is driven using the electrical energy
that is charged & stored inside the high
voltage battery. This method prevents
air pollution since fuel, like gasoline, is
not required, negating the emission of
exhaust gases.
A high performance electric motor is
used in the vehicle as well. Compared to
standard, internal combustion engine
vehicles, engine noise and vibrations are
much more minimal when driving.
When decelerating or driving downhill,
regenerative braking is utilized to charge
the high voltage battery. This minimizes
energy loss and increases the distance
to empty.
When the battery charge is not suffi
-
cient, AC charge (L2-Normal), DC charge
and Trickle charge (L1-Trickle) are avail
-
able. (Refer to "Charge types for electric
vehicle" on page 2-17.)
Battery information
The vehicle is composed of a high volt
-
age battery that drives the motor, air
conditioner, and charges an auxiliary
battery (12 V) that drives all other 12 V
systems.
The auxiliary battery is automatically
charged when the vehicle is in
READY
mode or the high voltage battery is
being charged.
NOTICE
What does regenerative braking do?
It uses the electric motor when deceler
-
ating and recaptures & transforms
kinetic to electrical energy in order to
charge the high voltage battery.

* VCU: Vehicle Control Unit
High Voltage (HV) battery (lith
-
ium-ion polymer)
The HV battery powers the vehicle and
peripheral devices.
The charge amount of the HV battery
may gradually decrease when the vehi
-
cle is not driven or charged.
The battery capacity of the HV battery
may decrease over time when the vehi
-
cle is stored in high temperatures and
temporarily in low temperatures.
Distance to empty may vary depending
on the driving conditions (cargo, rain,
snow, wind, road surfaces), even if the
charge amount is the same. The HV bat
-
tery may expend more energy when
driving a fast pace or uphill. These
actions may reduce the distance to
empty.
The high voltage battery is used when
using the air conditioner/heater and/or
use the pre-conditioning prior to depar
-
tures. This may reduce the distance to
empty. Make sure to set moderate tem
-
peratures when using the air condi
-
tioner/heater.
Natural degradation may occur with the
high voltage battery depending on the
number of years the vehicle was used
and/or the number of charging cycles.
This will reduce the distance to empty
over time.
When the charge capacity and distance
to empty keep falling, contact an autho
-
rized Kia dealer/service partner for
inspection and maintenance.
If the vehicle will not be in use for an
extended period of time, charge the high
voltage battery once every three months
to prevent it from discharging. Also, if
the charge amount is not enough, imme
-
diately charge to full and store the vehi
-
cle.

Electric vehicle guide Main components of electric vehicle
AC (L2-Normal) charging is recom
-
mended to keep the high voltage battery
in optimal condition.
If the HV battery is only charged to 80%,
and you minimize the number of DC fast
charging, you can keep the HV battery
performance in optimal condition. (vs
charging the HV battery to 100% an/or
charging every drive cycle.)
The value of the high voltage battery
charge level may vary according to the
charging conditions (state of charger,
outside temperature, battery tempera
-
ture, etc.). In order to fully charge the
battery, the current of the high voltage
battery will be gradually decreased, so
that the longevity and safety of the bat
-
tery can be secured.
High voltage battery warmer sys
-
tem
The high voltage battery warmer system
prevents reduction of battery output
when battery temperature is low. If the
charging connector is connected, the
warmer system automatically operates
according to the battery temperature.
Charging time may shorten compare to
vehicles without the high voltage battery
warmer system. But, electricity charge
may increase because of high voltage
battery warmer system operation.
WARNING
僅 Do not remove or disassemble high
voltage components and high voltage
battery connectors and/or wiring
(orange cabling). Also, be careful not
to damage high voltage components
and the high voltage battery. It may
cause serious injury and significantly
impact the performance and durabil
-
ity of the vehicle.
僅 When inspection and maintenance is
required for high voltage components
and the high voltage battery, have the
vehicle inspected by an authorized
Kia dealer/service partner.
CAUTION
僅 Make sure to use a designated char
-
ger when charging the HV battery.
Using different types of chargers may
have a serious impact on vehicle
durability.
僅 Make sure that the HV battery charge
gauge does not reach E (Empty). If the
vehicle is kept at E (Empty) for a long
period, it may damage the high volt
-
age battery and the high voltage bat
-
tery may have to be replaced,
depending on the level of degrada
-
tion.
僅 If the vehicle is in a collision, contact
an authorized Kia dealer/service part
-
ner to inspect whether the high volt
-
age battery is still connected.
僅 If the vehicle is kept with insufficient
charge for a long period, it may dam
-
age the high voltage battery and the
high voltage battery may have to be
replaced depending on the level of
degradation.
僅 If the vehicle is in a collision, we rec
-
ommend to visit an authorized Kia
dealer/service partner to inspect
whether the high voltage battery is
still connected.
僅 Using the V2L function may reduce
the mileage due to the use of high
voltage battery energy, and repeated
use of the V2L function may cause a
decrease in the life of the high voltage
battery.

Electric vehicle guide Precautions for charging electric vehicle
僅 Immediately stop charging when you
discover abnormal symptoms (smell,
smoke, etc.).
僅 Replace the charging cable if the
cable coating is damaged to prevent
electrical shock.
僅 When connecting or removing the
charging cable, make sure to hold the
charging connector handle.
僅 Only use the charging cable (if
equipped) certified by Kia. If you use a
separate extension cable such as a
reel or use an uncertified cable, it may
cause abnormalities of electrical out
-
lets, leading to fire or explosion.
僅 If you pull the cable itself (without
using the handle), the internal wires
may be disconnected or get dam
-
aged. This may lead to electric shock
or fire.
僅 Do not leave the vehicle with the
charging door open. An open
charging door may indicate that the
vehicle door has been unlocked and
may be subject to vehicle theft.
CAUTION
僅 Always keep the charging connector
and charging plug in clean and dry
condition. Be sure to keep the
charging cable in a condition where
there is no water or moisture.
僅 Make sure to use the designated
charger for charging the electric vehi
-
cle. Using any other charger may
cause failure.
僅 Before charging the battery, turn the
vehicle [OFF].
僅 When the vehicle is switched [OFF]
while charging, the cooling fan inside
the motor compartment may auto
-
matically operate. Do not touch the
cooling fan while charging.
僅 Be careful not to drop the charging
connector. The charging connector
can be damaged.
僅 Do NOT use a extension cord, when
using the L1-Trickle charger, as this
may overheat and/or cause damage.
NOTICE
When charging or right after charging
the high voltage battery, the cooling will
be made using air conditioner system in
order to control the high voltage battery
temperature.
At this time, the noise might occur by the
air conditioner compressor and cooling
fan, but this is due to normal operation.

pay attention to their surroundings while
driving.
CAUTION
僅 The vehicle does not generate an
engine sound. Be aware of your driv
-
ing environment and drive safely.
僅 After you park the vehicle or while you
are waiting at a traffic light, check
whether there are children or obsta

cles around the vehicle.
僅 Check if there is something behind
the vehicle when driving in reverse.
Pedestrians may not hear the sound

Distance to empty
The distance to empty is displayed dif
-
ferently according to the selected drive
mode in the Drive Mode Integrated Con
-
trol System.
For more information, refer to "Drive
mode integrated control system" on
page 6-35.
Impact on distance to empty
僅 Driving range depends on the driving
style, electrical load usage, environ
-
ment, and high voltage battery
energy. Distance to empty displayed
on the vehicle may be higher or lower
than the certification range because
these effects are considered.
僅 Driving style refers to driving speed
and acceleration/deceleration ten
-
dency. The higher the speed, or the
more frequent the acceleration/decel
-
eration, distance to empty will be
reduced.
僅 Electrical loads usage means air con
-
ditioning, heaters, lamps or additional
auxillary loads, and as the usage
increases, distance to empty will be
reduced.
僅 Environment refers to weather, tem
-
perature, and terrain. Distance to
empty is reduced in cases of snow/
rain/high winds or low temperatures,
uphill or slippery or rough road sur
-
faces.
僅 High voltage battery energy is propor
-
tional to SOC (charge amount), but
may vary depending on the battery
temperature, SOH (battery health),
etc.
Change of distance to empty
when 100% charging
僅If the distance to empty is lowered
due to learning by the driving style or
the environment in which the vehicle
is used, the driving distance may be
increased again if the vehicle contin
-
ues to drive according to the "driving
tips for improving the driving dis
-
tance". The distance to empty can be
reset at the workshop, but it does not
actually increase the range. There
-
fore, the distance to empty may be
inaccurate until the learning proceeds.
僅 Distance to empty decreases when
the high voltage battery temperature
is low in winter. It is not a permanent
change. If the temperature rises, the
distance to empty is restored.
僅 Reducing the use of electrical loads
increases the range available.
僅 Natural degradation of the high volt

length of use of the vehicle, which
reduces the distance to empty.
Operating tips to improve driving
range.
僅 As electric vehicles speed up, air resis
-
tance increases rapidly, so not speed
-
ing helps more driving range.
僅 High driving energy is consumed
during rapid acceleration. Motor
regenerative braking is restricted
during rapid deceleration. Keep the
accelerator pedal position constant
and drive at a constant speed.
僅 Excessive operation of the heater and
air conditioner can increase power
consumption and shorten the driving
range. When setting the temperature
to 22°C auto, optimal energy con
-
sumption driving is possible. In partic
-
ular, using a heated seat and reducing
air heating in winter is very helpful.
Turn off the heater and air conditioner
when heating and cooling are not
needed.
僅 Selecting recirculation mode con
-
sumes less energy than selecting
fresh mode. In the fresh mode, energy
consumption is large because the out
-
door air must be reheated or cooled.
When driving with the window open,
air resistance increases and heater
and air conditioner usage increases.
So close the window completely while
driving to reduce energy consump
-
tion.
僅 When driving alone, use DRIVER
ONLY mode when using the heater
and air conditioning system.
僅 Always maintain the specified tire
pressure and use tires exclusively for
electric vehicles.
僅 Do not use unnecessary electrical
components while driving.
僅 Do not load unnecessary items in the
vehicle.
僅 Do not mount parts that may increase
air resistance.

solution and have doctors inspect it as
soon as possible.
僅 If a small scale fire occurs, use a fire
extinguisher (ABC, BC) that is meant
for electrical fires. If it is impossible to
extinguish the fire in the early stage,
maintain a safe distance away from
the vehicle and immediately call your
local fire emergency responders.
Also, advise them that an electric
vehicle is involved.
If the fire spreads to the high voltage
battery, large amounts of water is
needed to put out the fire. Using small
amounts of water or fire extinguishers
not meant for electrical fires could
cause serious injury or death from
electrical shocks.
僅 If you cannot put out the fire immedi
-
ately, the high voltage battery may
explode. Evacuate to a safe place and
do not let other people approach the
site.
Contact the fire department and
notify them of an electric vehicle fire.
If the vehicle is flooded with water,
immediately turn OFF the vehicle and
evacuate to a safe place. Contact the
fire department or an authorized Kia
dealer/service partner.
僅 If you tow the vehicle while the front
wheels are touching the ground, the
vehicle motor may generate electricity
and the motor components may be
damaged or a fire may occur.
僅 When a vehicle fire occurs due to the
battery, there is a risk of a second fire.

Safety precautions for electric vehicle
Contact your local fire emergency
responders when towing the vehicle.
僅 When you clean the motor compart
-
ment, do not use high pressure water
to wash. This may cause an electric
shock due to a discharge in high volt
-
age electricity, or damage the vehi
-
cle's electric system.
僅 Never disconnect the high voltage
cut-off switch except in an emergency
situation. Serious problems may
occur, such as the vehicle will not
start.
CAUTION
僅 Do not use, remodel, or install non-
genuine parts. This may damage the
electric power system.
僅 The 4WD vehicle should never be
towed with the wheels on the ground.
This can cause serious damage to the
transmission or the 4WD system.
NOTICE
Putting the excessive force to the switch
lever while shutting down the high volt
-
age battery may severely damage the
high voltage cut-off switch.

-
son struck by the seatback.
僅 Riding in a vehicle with the seatback
reclined could lead to serious or fatal
injury in an accident.
僅 If a seat is reclined during an accident,
the occupant's hips may slide under
the lap portion of the seatbelt, apply
-
ing great force to the unprotected
abdomen. Serious or fatal internal
injuries could result. The driver must
advise the passenger to keep the
seatback in an upright position when
-
ever the vehicle is in motion.
僅 Do not use a sitting cushion that
reduces friction between the seat and
passenger. The passenger's hips may
slide under the lap portion of the seat
belt during an accident or a sudden
stop. Serious or fatal internal injuries
could result because the seat belt
can't operate normally.
僅 Never attempt to adjust any seat
while the vehicle is moving. This could
result in loss of control, and an acci
-
dent causing death, serious injury, or
property damage.
僅 Do not allow anything to interfere with
the normal position of the seatback.
Storing items against a seatback or in
any other way interfering with proper
locking of a seatback could result in
serious or fatal injury in a sudden stop
or collision.
僅 Always drive and ride with your seat
-
back upright and the lap portion of
the seat belt snug and low across the
hips. This is the best position to pro
-
tect you in case of an accident.
僅 In order to avoid unnecessary and
perhaps severe air bag injuries,
always sit as far back as possible from
the steering wheel while maintaining
comfortable control of the vehicle. We
recommend that your chest is at least
250 mm (10 inches) away from the
steering wheel.
僅The rear seatback must be securely
latched. If not, passengers and objects
could be thrown forward resulting in
serious injury or death in the event of
a sudden stop or collision.
僅 Luggage and other cargo should be
laid flat in the cargo area. If objects
are large, heavy, or must be piled,
they must be secured. Under no cir
-
cumstances should cargo be piled
higher than the seatbacks. Failure to
follow these warnings could result in
serious injury or death in the event of
a sudden stop, collision or rollover.
僅 No passenger should ride in the cargo
area or sit or lie on folded seatbacks
while the vehicle is moving. All pas
-
sengers must be properly seated in
seats and restrained properly while
riding.
僅 When resetting the seatback to the
upright position, make sure it is
securely latched by pushing it forward
and backwards.
僅 After adjusting the seat, always check
that it is securely locked into place by
attempting to move the seat forward
or backward without using the lock
release lever. Sudden or unexpected
movement of the driver's seat could
cause you to lose control of the vehi
-
cle resulting in an accident.
僅 Do not adjust the seat while wearing
seat belts. Moving the seat cushion
forward may cause strong pressure
on the abdomen.
僅 Use extreme caution so that hands or
other objects are not caught in the

tioned midway over your shoulder
across your collarbone.
僅 Never wear a seat belt over fragile
objects. If there is a sudden stop or
impact, the seat belt can damage it.
僅 Avoid wearing twisted seat belts. A
twisted belt can't do its job as well. In a
collision, it could even cut into you. Be
sure the belt webbing is straight and
not twisted.
僅 Be careful not to damage the belt
webbing or hardware. If the belt web
-
bing or hardware is damaged, replace
it.
僅 Seat belts are designed to bear upon
the bony structure of the body, and
should be worn low across the front of
the pelvis or the pelvis, chest and
shoulders, as applicable; wearing the
lap section of the belt across the
abdominal area must be avoided. Seat
belts should be adjusted as firmly as
possible, consistent with comfort, to
provide the protection for which they
have been designed. A slack belt will
greatly reduce the protection afforded
to the wearer. Care should be taken to
avoid contamination of the webbing
with polishes, oils and chemicals, and
particularly battery acid. Cleaning
may safely be carried out using mild
soap and water. The belt should be
replaced if webbing becomes frayed,
contaminated or damaged. It is essen
-
tial to replace the entire assembly
after it has been worn in a severe
impact even if damage to the assem
-
bly is not obvious. Belts should not be
worn with straps twisted. Each belt
assembly must only be used by one
occupant; it is dangerous to put a belt
around a child being carried on the
occupant's lap.
僅 No modifications or additions should
be made by the user which will either
prevent the seat belt adjusting
devices from operating to remove
slack, or prevent the seat belt assem
-
bly from being adjusted to remove
slack.
僅 When you fasten the seat belt, be
careful not to latch the seat belt in
buckles of other seat. It's very danger
-
ous and you may not be protected by
the seat belt properly.
僅 Do not unfasten the seat belt and do
not fasten and unfasten the seat belt
repeatedly while driving. This could
result in loss of control, and an acci
-
dent causing death, serious injury, or
property damage.

Seat belt precautions
WARNING
All occupants of the vehicle must wear
their seat belts at all times. Seat belts
and child restraints reduce the risk of
serious or fatal injuries for all occupants
in the event of a collision or sudden stop.
Without a seat belt, occupants could be
shifted too close to a deploying air bag,
strike the interior structure or be thrown
from the vehicle. Properly worn seat
belts greatly reduce these hazards.
Always follow the precautions about
seat belts, air bags and occupant seat
contained in this manual.
Infant or small child
You should be aware of the specific
requirements in your country. Child and/
or infant seats must be properly placed
and installed in the rear seat.
Refer to "Child restraint system (CRS)"
on page 4-21.

Safety features of your vehicle Seat belts
WARNING
Every person in your vehicle needs to be
properly restrained at all times, including
infants and children. Never hold a child
in your arms or lap when riding in a vehi
-
cle. The violent forces created during a
crash will tear the child from your arms
and throw the child against the interior.
Always use a child restraint appropriate
for your child's height and weight.
NOTICE
Small children are best protected from
injury in an accident when properly
restrained in the rear seat by a child
restraint system that meets the require
-
ments of the Safety Standards of your
country. Before buying any child
restraint system, make sure that it has
label certifying that it meets Safety Stan
-
dards of your country. The restraint
must be appropriate for your child's
height and weight. Check the label on
the child restraint for this information.
Refer to "Child restraint system (CRS)"
on page 4-21.
Larger children
Children who are too large for child
restraint systems should always occupy
the rear seat and use the available lap/
shoulder belts. The lap portion should be
fastened in such a way that it is snug on
the hips and as low as possible. Periodi
-
cally check whether the belt is properly
fastened. A child's squirming could put
the belt out of position. In the event of
an accident, children are afforded the
most safety when they are restrained by
a proper restraint system in the rear
seat. If a larger child (over age 13) must
be seated in the front seat, the child
should be securely restrained by the
available lap/shoulder belt and the seat
should be placed in the rearmost posi
-
tion. Children aged 13 and under should
be restrained securely in the rear seat.
NEVER place a child aged 13 or under in
the front seat. NEVER place a rear facing
child seat in the front seat of a vehicle.
If the shoulder belt portion slightly
touches the child's neck or face, try plac
-
ing the child closer to the center of the
vehicle. If the shoulder belt still touches
their face or neck they need to be
returned to a child restraint system.
WARNING
僅 Never allow a shoulder belt to be in
contact with a child's neck or face
while the vehicle is in motion.
僅 If seat belts are not properly worn and
adjusted on children, there is a risk of
death or serious injury.
Pregnant women
The use of a seat belt is recommended
for pregnant women to lessen the
chance of injury in an accident. When a
seat belt is used, the lap belt portion
should be placed as low and as snugly
as possible on the hips, not across the
abdomen. For specific recommenda
-
tions, consult a physician.
WARNING
Pregnant women must never place the
lap portion of the safety belt over the
area of the abdomen where the fetus in
located or above the abdomen where
the belt could crush the fetus during an
impact.
Safety features of your vehicle

Seat belts
Injured person
A seat belt should be used when an
injured person is being transported.
When this is necessary, you should con
-
sult a physician for recommendations.
One person per belt
Two people (including children) should
never attempt to use a single seat belt.
This could worsen the injuries in the
event of an accident.
Do not lie down
To reduce the chance of injuries in the
event of an accident and to achieve
maximum effectiveness of the restraint
system, all passengers should be sitting
up and the front seats should be in an
upright position when the car is moving.
A seat belt cannot provide proper pro
-
tection if the person is lying down in the
rear seat or if the front seat is in a
reclined position.
WARNING
Riding with a reclined seatback
increases your chance of serious or fatal
injuries in the event of a collision or sud
-
den stop. The protection of your
restraint system (seat belts and air bags)
is greatly reduced by reclining your seat.
Seat belts must be snug against your
hips and chest to work properly. The
more the seatback is reclined, the
greater the chance that an occupant's
hips will slide under the lap belt causing
serious internal injuries or the occupant's
neck could strike the shoulder belt. Driv
-
ers and passengers should always sit
well back in their seats, properly belted,
and with the seatbacks upright.
Care of seat belts
Seat belt systems should never be disas
-
sembled or modified. In addition, care
should be taken to ensure that seat belts
and belt hardware are not damaged by
seat hinges, doors, or other abuse.
WARNING
僅 When you return the rear seatback to
its upright position after the rear seat
-
back was folded down, be careful not
to damage the seat belt webbing or
buckle. Be sure that the webbing or
buckle does not get caught or
pinched in the rear seat. A seat belt
with damaged webbing or buckle will
not be as strong and could possible
fail during a collision or sudden stop,
resulting in serious injury. If the web
-
bing or buckles are damaged, get
them replaced immediately.
僅 Seat belts can become hot in a vehicle
that has been closed up in sunny
weather. They could burn infants and
children.
Periodic inspection
It is recommended that all seat belts be
inspected periodically for wear or dam
-
age of any kind. Any damaged parts
should be replaced as soon as possible.
Keep belts clean and dry
If belts become dirty, they can be
cleaned by using a mild soap solution
and warm water. Bleach, dye, strong
detergents, or abrasives should not be
used since they may damage and
weaken the fabric.

Child restraint system types
Forward/rearward-facing Child
Restraint System
A rearward-facing Child Restraint Sys
-
tem provides restraint with the seating
surface against the back of the child.
The harness system holds the child in
place and, in an accident, keeps the child
positioned in the child restraint system
and reduces stress to the fragile neck
and spinal cord.
All children under the age of one year
must always ride in a rearward-facing
Child Restraint System. There are differ
-
ent types of rearward-facing child
restraint system: infant-only child
restraint systems can only be used fac
-
ing rearward. Convertible and 3-in-1
Child Restraint Systems typically have
OCV031024L_2

Safety features of your vehicle Child restraint system (CRS)
higher height and weight limits for the
rearward-facing position, allowing you to
keep your child rearward-facing for a
longer period of time.
Keep using child restraint systems in the
rearward-facing position as long as the
children are within the height and weight
limits specified by the child restraint sys
-
tem's manufacturer.
A forward-facing Child Restraint System
provides restraint for the child's body
with a harness. Keep children in a for
-
ward-facing child restraint system with a
harness until they reach the maximum
height or weight limit allowed by your
child restraint system's manufacturer.
Once your child outgrows the forward-
facing Child Restraint System, your child
is ready for a booster seat.
Booster seats
A booster seat is a Child Restraint Sys
-
tem designed to improve the fit of the
vehicle's seat belt system. A booster seat
positions the seat belt so that it fits prop
-
erly over the stronger parts of your
child's body. Keep your children in
booster seats until they are big enough
to fit in a seat belt properly.
For a seat belt to fit properly, the lap belt
must lie comfortably across the upper
thighs, not the stomach. The shoulder
belt should lie comfortably across the
shoulder and chest and not across the
neck or face. Children under the age of
13 should always ride in the rear seats;
they must always be restrained properly
to minimize the risk of injury in case of
accident, sudden stop, or sudden
maneuver.

How does the air bag system
operate?
僅 Air bags are activated (able to inflate
if necessary) only when the EV button
is in the ON position and it can be
activated within about 3 minutes after
the vehicle is in OFF position.
僅 Air bags inflate instantly in the event
of serious frontal or side collision (if a
side air bag or a curtain air bag is
present) in order to help protect the
occupants from serious physical
injury.
僅 Generally, air bags are designed to
inflate based upon the severity of a
collision and its direction, etc. These
two factors determine whether the
sensors produce electronic deploy
-
ment/inflation signal.
僅 Air bags will inflate based upon the
severity of a collision and its direction,
etc. Air bags will not inflate in every
crash or collision situation.
僅 The front air bags will completely
inflate and deflate in an instant. It is
virtually impossible for you to see the
air bags inflate during an accident. It
is much more likely that you will sim
-
ply see the deflated air bags hanging
out of their storage compartments
after the collision.
僅In order to help provide protection in
a severe collision, the air bags must
inflate rapidly. The speed of air bag
inflation is due to the extremely short
time when a collision occurs and the
need to get the air bag between the
occupant and the vehicle structures
before the occupant impacts those
structures. This speed of inflation
reduces the risk of serious or life-
threatening injuries in a severe colli
-
sion and is thus a necessary part of air
bag design.
僅 However, air bag inflation can also
cause injuries, including facial abra
-
sions, bruises, and broken bones,
because the inflation speed also
causes the air bags to expand with a
great deal of force.
僅 There are even circumstances under
which contact with the steering wheel
air bag can cause fatal injuries, espe
-
cially if the occupant is positioned
excessively close to the steering
wheel.
WARNING
僅 Even in vehicles with air bags, you
and your passengers must always
wear the safety belts provided in
order to minimize the risk and severity
of injury in the event of a collision or
in most rollover situations.
僅 SRS and pre-tensioners contain explo
-
sive chemicals. If scraping a vehicle
without removing SRS and pre-ten
-
sioners from a vehicle, it may cause
fire. Before scraping a vehicle, contact
a professional workshop. Kia recom
-
mends visiting an authorized Kia
dealer/service partner.
僅 Keep the SRS parts and wirings away
from water or any liquid. If the SRS
components are inoperative due to
exposure to water or liquids, it may
cause fire or severe injury.
僅 To avoid severe personal injury or
death caused by deploying air bags in
a collision, the driver should sit as far
back from the steering wheel air bag.
The front passenger should always
move their seat as far back as possi
-
ble and sit back in their seat.
僅 Air bag inflates instantly in an event of
a collision, passengers may be injured
Safety features of your vehicle

Air bag – supplemental restraint system
by the air bag expansion force if they
are not in a proper position.
僅 Air bag inflation may cause injuries
including facial or bodily abrasions,
injuries from broken glasses or burns.
NOTICE
If equipped with rollover sensor
Also, the air bags inflate instantly in the
event of a rollover (if equipped with a
side air bag or curtain air bag) in order
to help protect the occupants from seri
-
ous physical injury.
Noise and smoke
When the air bags inflate, they make a
loud noise and leave smoke and powder
in the air inside of the vehicle. This is
normal and is a result of the ignition of
the air bag inflator. After the air bag has
inflated, you may feel substantial dis
-
comfort in breathing due to the contact
between your chest and both the seat
belt and the air bag, as well as from
breathing the smoke and powder.
Open your doors and/or windows as
soon as possible after an impact in
order to reduce discomfort and pre
-
vent prolonged exposure to the
smoke and powder.
Though the smoke and powder are non
-
toxic, they may cause skin irritation
(eyes, nose, throat, etc.). If this is the
case, wash and rinse with cold water
immediately and consult the doctor if
the symptom persists.
WARNING
僅 When the air bags deploy, the air bag
related parts in the steering wheel
and/or instrument cluster and/or in
both sides of the roof rails above the
front and rear doors are very hot. To
prevent injury, do not touch the air
bag storage areas internal compo
-
nents immediately after an air bag
has inflated.
僅 Do not install or place any accessories
near air bag deployment areas, such
as the instrument cluster, windows,
pillars, and roof rails.

Upon deployment, tear seams molded
directly into the pad covers will separate
under pressure from the expansion of
the air bags. Further opening of the cov
-
ers then allows full inflation of the air
bags.
A fully inflated air bag, in combination
with a properly worn seat belt, slows the
driver's or the passenger's forward
motion, reducing the risk of head and
chest injury.
After complete inflation, the air bag
immediately starts deflating, enabling
the driver to maintain forward visibility
and the ability to steer or operate other
controls.
WARNING
僅 Do not install or place any accessories
(drink holder, CD holder, sticker, etc.)
on the front passenger's panel above
the glove box in a vehicle with a pas
-
senger's air bag. Such objects may
become dangerous projectiles and
cause injury if the passenger's air bag
inflates.
僅 When installing a container of liquid
air freshener inside the vehicle, do not
place it near the instrument cluster
nor on the instrument panel surface.
It may become dangerous projectiles
and cause injury if the passenger's air
bag inflates.
僅 If an air bag deploys, there may be a
loud noise followed by a fine dust
released in the vehicle. These condi
-
tions are normal and are not hazard
-
ous - the air bags are packed in this
fine powder. The dust generated
during air bag deployment may cause
skin or eye irritation as well as aggra

- The SRS is designed to deploy the
front air bags only when an impact
is sufficiently severe. Additionally,
the air bags will only deploy once.
Seat belts must be worn at all times.
- Front air bags are not intended to
deploy in side-impact, rear-impact
or rollover crashes. In addition,
front air bags will not deploy in
frontal crashes below the deploy

be moved as far back as possible.
- For maximum safety protection in
all types of crashes, all occupants
including the driver should always
wear their seat belts whether or not
an air bag is also provided at their
seating position to minimize the
risk of severe injury or death in the
event of a crash. Do not sit or lean
unnecessarily close to the air bag
while the vehicle is in motion.
- Sitting improperly or out of position
can result in serious or fatal injury
in a crash. All occupants should sit
upright with the seat back in an
upright position, center on the seat
cushion with their seat belt on, legs
comfortably extended and their
feet on the floor until the vehicle is
parked.
- The SRS air bag system must
deploy very rapidly to provide pro

Air bag – supplemental restraint system
WARNING
僅 Do not hit or allow any objects to
impact the locations where air bag or
sensors are installed.
This may cause unexpected air bag
deployment, which could result in
serious personal injury or death.
僅If the installation location or angle of
the sensors is altered in any way, the
air bags may deploy when they
should not or they may not deploy
when they should, causing severe
injury or death.
Therefore, do not try to perform main
-
tenance on or around the air bag sen
-
sors. Have the system serviced by a
professional workshop. Kia recom
-
mends visiting an authorized Kia
dealer/service partner.
僅 Problems may arise if the sensor
installation angles are changed due to
the deformation of the front bumper,
body or B pillar where side collision
sensors are installed. In this case,
have the system serviced by a profes
-
sional workshop. Kia recommends to
visit an authorized Kia dealer/service
partner.
僅 Your vehicle has been designed to
absorb impact and deploy the air
bag(s) in certain collisions
Use only Kia Genuine Parts or those
of an equivalent standard to install
bumper guards or replace a bumper.
If not, it may adversely affect your
vehicle’s collision and air bag deploy
-
ment performance.
僅 If equipped with rollover sensor
If your vehicle is equipped with side
and curtain air bag, press EV button
to OFF position and wait for 3 minutes
when the vehicle is being towed.
The side and curtain air bag may
deploy when the EV button is in ON or
OFF position within 3 minutes, and
the rollover sensor detects the situa
-
tion as a rollover.
Air bag inflation conditions
* The actual air bags in the vehicle may differ from the illustra
-
tion.
INFORMATION
僅 Side and curtain air bags
The side and curtain air bags are
designed to inflate when a rollover is
detected by a rollover sensor.
Although the front air bags (driver's
and front passenger's air bags) are
designed to inflate only in frontal colli
-
sions, they also may inflate in other
types of collisions if the front impact
sensors detect a sufficient impact.
Side air bags (side and/or curtain air
bags) are designed to inflate only in
side impact collisions, but they may
inflate in other collisions if the side
impact sensors detect a sufficient
impact.
For instance, side airbag and curtain
air bags may inflate if rollover sensors
Air bag inflation conditions
Front air bags are designed to
inflate in a frontal collision
depending on the intensity,
speed or angles of impact of
the front collision.
Side and/or curtain air bags
are designed to inflate when
an impact is detected by side
collision sensors depending
on the strength, speed or
angles of impact resulting
from a side impact collision.

Safety features of your vehicle Air bag – supplemental restraint system
indicate the possibility of a rollover
occurring (even if none actually
occurs) or in other situations, includ
-
ing when the vehicle is tilted while
being towed. Even if side and/or cur
-
tain air bags do not provide impact
protection in a rollover, they will
deploy to prevent ejection of occu
-
pants, especially those who are
restrained with seat belts.
If the vehicle chassis is impacted by
bumps or objects on unimproved
roads or sidewalks, air bags may
deploy. Drive carefully on unimproved
roads or on surfaces not designed for
vehicle traffic to prevent unintended
air bag deployment.
NOTICE
If equipped with rollover sensor
Also, the side and curtain air bags are
designed to inflate when a rollover is
detected by a rollover sensor.
Air bag non-inflation conditions
WARNING
僅 The SRS is designed to deploy the
front air bags only when an impact is
sufficiently severe and when the
impact angle is less than 30° from the
forward longitudinal axis of the vehi
-
cle.
僅 Front air bags are not intended to
deploy in side-impact, rear-impact or
rollover crashes. In addition, front air
bags will not deploy in frontal crashes
below the deployment threshold.
僅 The air bags deploy only in certain
side impact or rollover conditions
(Only vehicle equipped with rollover
sensor) severe enough to cause sig
-
nificant injury to the vehicle occu
-
pants.
Air bag non-inflation conditions
In certain low-speed collisions
the air bags may not deploy.
Air bags are not designed to
inflate in rear collisions.
Heavy braking lowers the
front portion of the vehicle
causing it to "ride" under a
vehicle with a higher ground
clearance.
Air bags may not inflate in this
"under-ride" situation because
deceleration forces that are
detected by sensors may be
significantly reduced by such
"under-ride" collisions.
OCV031052L
OCV031053L
OCV031054L
In an angled collision, the force
of impact may send the occu
-
pants in a direction where the
air bags would not be able to
provide any additional benefit;
thus, the sensors may not
deploy any air bags.
Front air bags may not inflate
in side impact collisions.
Air bags may not inflate in roll
-
over accidents because the
vehicle cannot detect the roll
-
over.
Air bags may not inflate if the
vehicle collides with objects
such as utility poles or trees,
meaning the point of impact is
concentrated in one area and
the full force of the impact is
not delivered to the sensors.

僅 The following symptoms may occur
during normal vehicle operation:
- The EPS warning light does not illu
-
minate.
- The steering effort is high immedi
-
ately after pressing the EV button
to ON position. This happens as the
EPS system performs the diagnos
-
tics. When the diagnostics is com
-
pleted, the steering effort will
return to its normal condition.
- A click noise may be heard from the
EPS relay after EV button is in ON
position.
- Motor noise may be heard when
the vehicle is at a stop or at a low
driving speed.
- When the abnormality is detected
in the electric power steering sys
-

purposes, steering assist functions
will be stopped. At this time, the
instrument cluster warning light
turns on or blinks and the power to
manipulate the steering will be off.
Please check immediately after
moving the vehicle to a safe zone.
- The steering effort increases if the
steering wheel is rotated continu
-
ously when the vehicle is not in
motion. However, after a few min
-
utes, it will return to its normal con
-
ditions.
- If the Electric Power Steering Sys
-

mal noise could occur. If tempera
-
ture rises, the noise will disappear.
This is a normal condition.
- When jump starting the vehicle
after battery discharge, the steer
-
ing wheel may not function prop
-
erly. It is a temporary situation due
to low battery voltage, and upon
stable battery charging, the steer
-
ing wheel will function normally
again. Please move the steering
wheel around to make sure the
steering wheel is functioning prop
-
erly before driving the vehicle.

Traffic change (For Europe)
The distribution of light from low-beam
headlamps is asymmetrical. If you go to
a country with opposite traffic direction,
this asymmetrical distribution will dazzle
drivers in oncoming vehicles. To avoid
dazzling other drivers, ECE regulations
require various technical solutions (e.g.,
automatic change system, adhesive
sheet, downward aim). This vehicle's
headlamps are designed not to dazzle
oncoming drivers. Thus, you need not
change your headlamps when in a coun
-

nents
A: Outside air
B: Recirculated air
C: Climate control air filter
D: Blower
E: Evaporator core
F: Heater core
The climate control air filter installed
behind the front trunk filters the dust or
other pollutants that come into the vehi
-
cle from the outside through the heating
and air conditioning system.
If dust or other pollutants accumulate in
the filter over a period of time, the air
flow from the air vents may decrease.
This leads to moisture accumulating on
the inside of the windshield even when
the outside (fresh) air position is
selected.
If this happens, have the climate control
air filter replaced by a professional
workshop. Kia recommends visiting an
authorized Kia dealer/service partner.

els on a regular basis at the exact inter
-
val:
僅 Brake fluid
僅 Washer fluid
For more details, refer to "Maintenance"
on page 8-3.
WARNING
Focus on the road while driving. The
driver's primary responsibility is in the
safe and legal operation of the vehicle.
Use of any handheld devices, other
equipment or vehicle systems that dis
-
tract the driver should not be used
during vehicle operation.
Before entering vehicle
僅Be sure that all windows, outside mir
-
rors, and outside lights are clean.
僅 Check the condition of the tires.
僅 Check under the vehicle for any sign
of leaks.
僅 Make sure there are no obstacles
behind you if you intend to back up.
Before starting the vehicle
僅 Close and lock all doors.
僅 Position the seat so that all controls
are easily reached.
僅 Buckle your seat belt.
僅 Adjust both inside and outside rear
view mirrors.
僅Be sure that all lights work.
僅 Check all gauges.
僅 Check the operation of warning lights
when the vehicle is in the ON position.
僅 Release the parking brake and make
sure the brake warning light is off.
WARNING
僅 Always check the surrounding areas
near your vehicle for people, espe
-
cially children, before putting a vehi
-
cle into D (Drive) or R (Reverse).
僅 Securely store items in your vehicle.
When you make a sudden stop or turn
the steering wheel rapidly, loose
objects may drop on the floor and it
could interfere with the operation of
the foot pedals, possibly causing an
accident.
僅 Do not drive while under the influence
of alcohol, drugs, or other impairing
substances. Drinking and driving is
dangerous. Even a small amount of
alcohol will affect your reflexes, per
-
ceptions and judgment.
Driving while under the influence of
drugs or other impairing substances is
as dangerous as or more dangerous
than driving drunk.
僅 Always wear appropriate shoes when
operating your vehicle. Unsuitable
shoes (high heels, ski boots, sandals,
etc.) may interfere with your ability to
use the brake and accelerator pedals.
Good driving practices
僅 Never shift from P or N to any other
position with the accelerator pedal
pressed.
僅 Never shift to P when the vehicle is
moving.
僅 Stop the vehicle completely before
shifting to R or D.
僅 Never change the gear to N and coast
down the hill. This is extremely haz
-
ardous. Always make sure that the
vehicle is in R or D when it is moving.
7

Driving your vehicle Before driving
僅 Always use the parking brake. Do not
depend on P to keep the vehicle from
moving.
僅 Exercise extreme caution when driv
-
ing on a slippery surface. Be espe
-
cially careful when braking,
accelerating, or shifting gears. The
vehicle speed can change abruptly,
causing the tires to lose traction and
the vehicle to lose control.
WARNING
僅 If your vehicle becomes stuck in snow,
mud, sand, etc., then you may
attempt to rock the vehicle free by
moving it forward and backward. Do
not attempt this procedure if people
or objects are anywhere near the
vehicle. During the rocking operation
the vehicle may suddenly move for
-
ward or backward as it becomes
unstuck, causing injury or damage to
nearby people or objects.
僅 When driving uphill or downhill,
always shift to D (Drive) for driving
forward or shift to R (Reverse) for
driving backwards, and check the
gear position indicated on the cluster
before driving. Driving in the opposite
direction of the selected gear can lead
to a dangerous situation by shutting
off the vehicle and affecting the brak
-
ing performance.
僅 ALWAYS wear your seat belt. In a colli
-
sion, an unbelted occupant is signifi
-
cantly more likely to be seriously
injured or killed than a properly belted
occupant.
僅 Avoid high speeds when cornering or
turning.
僅 Do not make quick steering wheel
movements, such as sharp lane
changes or fast, sharp turns.
僅 The risk of a rollover is greatly
increased if you lose control of your
vehicle at highway speeds.
僅 Losing control often occurs if two or
more wheels drop off the roadway
and the driver oversteers to reenter
the roadway.
僅 In the event your vehicle leaves the
roadway, do not steer sharply.
Instead, slow down before pulling
back into the travel lanes.
僅 Never exceed posted speed limits.
Good braking practices
僅 Be sure the parking brake is not
engaged and the parking brake indi
-
cator light is off before driving.
僅 The vehicle will not stop as quickly if
the brakes are wet. Apply the brakes
lightly until the braking action returns
to normal.
僅 If you get a flat tire while driving,
apply the brakes gently and keep the
vehicle straight ahead while it slows
down. Pull the vehicle slowly and
safely off the road and stop in a safe
place.
僅 Be cautious when parking on a hill.
Firmly engage the parking brake and
shift to P.
僅 If your vehicle is facing downhill, turn
the front wheels into the curb to help
keep the vehicle from rolling.
If your vehicle is facing uphill, turn the
front wheels away from the curb to
help keep the vehicle from rolling.
僅 Block the wheels if there is no curb or
if it is required by other conditions to
keep the vehicle from rolling.
僅 The parking brake can freeze in the
engaged position under certain condi
-
tions such as snow or ice around or
Driving your vehicle
86
Vehicle power
near the rear brakes or if the brakes
are wet.
If there is risk of the parking brake
freezing, apply it only temporarily
while shifting to P and block the rear
wheels so that the vehicle cannot roll.
Then, release the parking brake.
僅 Do not hold the vehicle on an incline
with the accelerator pedal. This can
cause the reduction gear to overheat.
Always use the brake pedal or parking
brake.
僅 Do not pump the brake pedal as the
vehicle is equipped with ABS.
僅 The vehicle is equipped with elec
-
tronic hydraulic brake. Due to mal
-
function or power instability, the
brake booster may not operate nor
-
mally and cause the brake pedal to
feel stiff, resulting in longer braking
distances. In this case, stop the vehicle
by depressing the brake pedal stron
-
ger than usual. Have the system
inspected by a professional workshop.

can only assist you in maintaining
control under certain circumstances.
僅 When ESC (electric vehicle control) is
deactivated, the vehicle will loose the
traction and stability if the vehicle is
driven by abrupt steering wheel con
-
trol. It is possible that the tire may
make a collision with the connected
parts of the tire. We recommend to do
not turn off ESC while driving the
vehicle for your safety.
NOTICE
僅 A click sound may be heard in the
vehicle compartment when the vehi
-
cle begins to move after the vehicle is
started. These conditions are normal
and indicate that the Electronic Stabil
-
ity Control system is functioning prop
-
erly.
僅When operating the vehicle on a
dynamometer, ensure that the ESC is
turned off (ESC OFF light illuminated).
If the ESC is left on, it may prevent the

Multi-Collision Brake (MCB)
Multi-Collision Brake controls the brake
automatically in the event of an accident
where the air bag deploys to reduce the
risk of additional accidents that may
occur.
System operation
僅 From the time the air bag deploys,
Multi-Collision Brake monitors the
depression intensity of the brake
pedal and accelerator pedal for a
short period. The system operates
when the following conditions are
met:
- Vehicle speed is under 180 km/h
(112 mph) at the time of collision.
- The brake pedal and accelerator
pedal are hardly depressed.
僅 When the driver steps on the brake
pedal over a certain level while Multi-
Collision Brake is active, the braking
power takes priority over automatic
braking by Multi-Collision Brake sys
-
tem. However, if the driver takes his/
her foot off the brake pedal, Multi-
Collision Brake system will maintain
automatic braking.
System off
僅 Multi-Collision Brake is canceled in
the following situations:
- The accelerator pedal is depressed
over a certain level.
- The vehicle stops.
- ESC (Electronic Stability Control) or
electronic devices has malfunc
-
tioned.
- In a situation system cannot oper
-
ate normally.
- Ten seconds have passed since the

Driving your vehicle All wheel drive (4WD)
All wheel drive (4WD) (if
equipped)
When All Wheel Drive (4WD) is activated,
driving forces are distributed appropri
-
ately to front and rear wheels. It could
improve driving performance by maxi
-
mizing the driving force of vehicles on
severe road conditions such as steep
hills, unpaved, slippery, etc.
Advantage of electronic 4WD
僅 Improvement of straight stability
僅 Improvement of driving performance
on curve
僅 Secure stability on severe condition
such as wet and sandy roads.
僅 Improvement of energy efficiency
from driving mode automatic control.
For safe 4WD operation
Before driving
僅 Make sure all passengers are wearing
seat belts.
僅 Sit upright and closer to the steering
wheel than usual. Adjust the steering
wheel to a position comfortable for
you to drive.
Driving on snow-covered or icy
roads
僅 Start off slowly by applying the accel
-
erator pedal gently
僅 Use snow tires or tire chains.
僅 Keep sufficient distance between your
vehicle and the vehicle in front of you.
僅 Using the regenerative braking helps
the steering on the downhill. However
it is difficult to adjust the vehicle while
coasting, so avoid using the third level
of regenerative braking as much as
possible.
僅 Avoid speeding, rapid acceleration,
sudden brake applications, and sharp
turns to prevent skids.
僅 It is difficult to start again if the vehicle
stops on an uphill road. Keep your dis
-
tance from other vehicles and drive
slowly.
Driving in sand or mud
僅 Maintain a slow, constant speed.
僅 Use tire chains driving in mud if nec
-
essary.
僅 Keep sufficient distance between your
vehicle and the vehicle in front of you.
僅 Reduce vehicle speed and always
check the road condition.
僅 Avoid speeding, rapid acceleration,
sudden brake applications, and sharp
turns to prevent getting stuck.
Driving up or down hills
僅 Driving uphill
- Before starting off, check if it is
possible to drive uphill.
僅 Driving downhill
- Drive straight as possible.
Driving through water
僅 Try to avoid driving in deep standing
water.
僅 If you need to drive in water, stop
your vehicle, set the vehicle in Multi
Terrain mode and drive under 8 km/h
(5 mph).
僅 Do not change gear while driving in
water.
Driving your vehicle
406
All wheel drive (4WD)
Additional driving conditions
僅 Become familiar with the off-road
conditions before driving.
僅 Always pay attention when driving
off-road and avoid dangerous areas.
僅 Drive slowly when driving in heavy
wind.
僅 Reduce vehicle speed when corner
-
ing. The center of gravity of 4WD
vehicles is higher than conventional
2WD vehicles, making them more
likely to roll over when you rapidly
turn corners.
僅 Always hold the steering wheel firmly
when you are driving off-road.
WARNING
僅 If the 4WD warning light ( ) stays on
the instrument cluster, your vehicle
may have a malfunction with the 4WD
system. When the 4WD warning light
( ) illuminates, have your vehicle
checked by a professional workshop.
Kia recommends visiting an autho
-
rized Kia dealer/service partner.
僅 Do not drive in conditions that exceed
the vehicles intended design such as
challenging off-road conditions.
僅 Avoid high speeds when cornering or
turning.
僅 Do not make quick steering wheel
movements, such as sharp lane
changes or fast, sharp turns.
僅 The risk of a rollover is greatly
increased if you lose control of your
vehicle at highway speeds.
僅 Loss of control often occurs if two or
more wheels drop off the roadway
and the driver over steers to reenter
the roadway.
僅 In the event your vehicle leaves the
roadway, do not steer sharply.

Special driving conditions
If driving conditions deteriorate due to
poor weather or road conditions, you
should pay even more attention than
usual.
Hazardous driving conditions
When hazardous driving conditions are
encountered, such as water, snow, ice,
mud, sand, or similar hazards, follow
these suggestions:
僅 Drive cautiously and allow extra dis
-
tance for braking.
僅 Avoid sudden braking or steering.
僅 Do not pump the brake pedal on a
vehicle equipped with ABS.
僅 If stalled in snow, mud, or sand, use
second gear. Accelerate slowly to
avoid spinning the drive wheels.
僅 Use sand, rock salt, or other nonslip
material under the drive wheels to
provide traction when the vehicle is
stuck in ice, snow, or mud.
Reducing the risk of a rollover
This multi-purpose passenger vehicle is
defined as a Sports Utility Vehicle (SUV).
Utility vehicles have a significantly
higher rollover rate than other types of
vehicles. SUVs have higher ground
clearance and narrower track to make
them capable of performing in a wide
variety of off-road applications.
Specific design characteristics give them
a higher center of gravity than ordinary
vehicles. An advantage of the higher
ground clearance is a better view of the
road, which allows you to anticipate
problems.
They are not designed for cornering at
the same speeds as conventional pas
-
senger vehicles, any more than low-

Driving your vehicle Special driving conditions
slung sports vehicles are designed to
perform satisfactorily in off-road condi
-
tions. Due to this risk, driver and passen
-
gers are strongly recommended to
buckle their seat belts.
In a rollover crash, an unbelted person is
significantly more likely to die than a
person wearing a seat belt. There are
precautionary measures that a driver
can take to reduce the risk of rollover.
If possible, avoid sharp turns and abrupt
maneuvers, do not load your roof rack
with heavy cargo, and never modify
your vehicle in any way.
WARNING
僅 Your vehicle is equipped with tires
designed to provide safe ride and
handling capability. Do not use tires
and wheels that are different in size
and type from the originally installed
ones. It can affect the safety and per
-
formance of your vehicle, which could
lead to steering failure or rollover and
serious injury. When replacing the
tires, be sure to equip all four tires
with the tire and wheel of the same
size, type, tread, brand and load-car
-
rying capacity.
僅 As with other Sports Utility Vehicle
(SUV), failure to operate this vehicle
correctly may result in loss of control,
an accident or vehicle rollover.
- Utility vehicles have a significantly
higher rollover rate than other
types of vehicles.
- Specific design characteristics
(higher ground clearance, narrower
track, etc.) give this vehicle a higher
center of gravity than ordinary
vehicles.
- A SUV is not designed for cornering
at the same speeds as conventional
vehicles.
- Avoid sharp turns and abrupt
maneuvers.
- In a rollover crash, an unbelted per
-
son is significantly more likely to die
than a person wearing a seat belt.
Make sure everyone in the vehicle
is properly buckled up.
Rocking the vehicle
If it is necessary to rock the vehicle to
free it from snow, sand, or mud, first
turn the steering wheel right and left to
clear the area around your front wheels.
Then, shift back and forth between R
(Reverse) and any forward gear position.
Do not race the vehicle, and spin the
wheels as little as possible. If you are still
stuck after a few tries, have the vehicle
pulled out by a tow vehicle to avoid vehi
-
cle overheating and possible damage to
the reduction gear.
WARNING
Do not attempt to rock the vehicle if
people or objects are nearby. The vehi
-
cle may suddenly move forward or
backwards as it becomes unstuck.
CAUTION
僅 Prolonged rocking may cause vehicle
overheating, reduction gear damage
or failure, and tire damage.
僅 Do not spin the wheels, especially at
speeds more than 56 km/h (35 mph).
Spinning the wheels at high speeds
when the vehicle is stationary could
overheat and damage tires, and the
rotating wheels may fly away and
injure bystanders.
Driving your vehicle
1966
Special driving conditions
NOTICE
The Electronic Stability Control (ESC)
should be turned OFF prior to rocking
the vehicle.
Smooth cornering
Avoid braking or gear changing while
cornering, especially when the road is
wet. Ideally, corners should always be
negotiated with gentle acceleration. If
you follow these suggestions, tire wear
will be kept to a minimum.
Driving at night
Because night driving presents more
hazards than driving in the daylight,
here are some important tips to remem
-
ber:
僅 Slow down and keep more distance
between you and other vehicles as it
may be more difficult to see at night,
especially in areas where there are no
street lights.
僅 Adjust your mirrors to reduce the
glare from other driver's headlamps.
僅 Keep your headlamps clean and prop
-
erly aimed. (On vehicles not equipped
with the automatic headlamp aiming
feature.) Dirty or improperly aimed
headlamps will make it much more
difficult to see at night.
僅 Avoid staring directly at the head
-
lamps of oncoming vehicles. You
could be temporarily blinded, and it
will take several seconds for your eyes
to readjust to the darkness.
Driving in the rain
Rain and wet roads can make driving
dangerous, especially if you are not pre
-
pared for the slick surface.
Here are a few things to consider when
driving in the rain:
僅 A heavy rainfall will make it harder to
see and will increase the distance
needed to stop your vehicle, so slow
down.
僅 Keep your windshield-wiping equip
-
ment in good shape. Replace your
windshield wiper blades when they
show signs of streaking or missing
areas on the windshield.
僅 If your tires are not in good condition,
having to stop quickly on a wet sur
-
face can cause a skid and possibly
lead to an accident. Be sure your tires
are in good shape.
僅 Turn on your headlamps to make it
easier for others to see you.
僅 Driving too fast through large puddles
can affect your brakes. If you must
drive through puddles, try to go
through them slowly.
僅 If you believe you got your brakes
wet, apply them lightly while driving
until normal brake operation returns.
Hydroplaning
If the road is wet enough and you are
going fast enough, your vehicle may
have little or no contact with the road
surface and actually ride on the water.
The best advice is to SLOW DOWN when
the road is wet.
The risk of hydroplaning increases as
the depth of tire tread decreases, refer
to"Tire replacement" on page 8-17.
197

Driving your vehicle Special driving conditions
Driving in flooded areas
Avoid driving through flooded areas
unless you are sure the water is no
higher than the bottom of the wheel
hub. Drive through any water slowly.
Allow adequate stopping distance as
brake performance may be affected.
After driving through water, dry the
brakes by gently applying them several
times while the vehicle is moving slowly.
If the brake system is wet and has
reduced braking effect or frequent
sounds when braking, adjust the setting
for the regenerative braking to '0' speed
with paddle shifter and apply the brake
pedal lightly several times. Maintain a
safe distance to dry the brake system.
Setting the regenerative braking to '0'
may reduce efficiency while braking sev
-
eral times for brake performance, but
this is normal. The regenerative braking
system will be normally operated after
-
wards.
Highway driving
Tires
Adjust the inflation pressures of the tires
in accordance with their specifications.
Low tire inflation pressures will result in
overheating and possible failure of the
tires.
Avoid using worn or damaged tires since
they may provide reduced traction or fail
completely.
Never exceed the maximum tire inflation
pressure shown on the tires.
WARNING
僅 Always check the tires for proper
inflation before driving. Underinflated
or overinflated tires can cause poor
handling, loss of vehicle control, and
sudden tire failure, leading to acci
-
dents, injuries, and even death. For
proper tire pressures, refer to "Tires
and wheels" on page 9-6.
僅 Always check the tire tread before
driving your vehicle. Worn-out tires
can result in loss of vehicle control.
Worn-out tires should be replaced as
soon as possible. For further informa
-
tion and tread limits, refer to "Tires
and wheels" on page 8-15.
Coolant and high voltage battery
Driving at higher speeds on the highway
consumes more electric energy and is
less efficient than driving at a slower,
more moderate speed. Maintain a mod
-
erate speed in order to conserve electric
energy when driving on the highway.
Be sure to check both the coolant level
and the electric energy level before driv
-
ing.

Winter driving
Winter driving
Severe weather conditions in the winter
result in greater wear and other prob
-
lems.
To minimize the problems of winter driv
-
ing, you should follow these sugges
-
tions:
* Snow tires and tire chains for the
national language (Icelandic), see the
Appendix.
Snowy or icy conditions
To drive your vehicle in deep snow, it
may be necessary to use snow tires or to
install tire chains on your tires.
If snow tires are needed, it is necessary
to select tires of the size and type equiv
-
alent to the tires originally installed. Fail
-
ure to do so may adversely affect the
safety and handling of your vehicle. Fur
-
thermore, speeding, rapid acceleration,
sudden brake applications, and sharp
turns are potentially very hazardous
practices.
During deceleration, use vehicle braking
to the fullest extent. Sudden brake appli
-
cations on snowy or icy roads may cause
skids to occur. You need to keep suffi
-
cient distance between your vehicle and
the one in front. Also, apply the brake
gently. Note that installing tire chains on
the tires will provide greater driving
force, but will not prevent side skids.
Summer tires (if equipped)
僅 Summer tires are used to maximize
the driving performance on dry roads.
僅 If the temperature is below 7°C or you
are driving on snowy or icy roads, the
summer tires lose their brake perfor
-
mance and traction as the tire grip
weakens significantly.
僅 If the temperature is below 7°C or you
are driving on snowy or icy roads,
mount snow tires or all-season tires of
the same size with your vehicle's stan
-
dard tire for safe driving. Both snow
and all-season tires have M+S mark
-
ings.
僅When using the M+S tires, use tires
with the same tread produced by the
same manufacturer for safe driving.
僅 When driving with the M+S tires with
the lower maximum allowable speed
than that of the vehicle's standard
summer tire, be careful not to exceed
the speed allowed for the M+S tires.
Snow tires
If you mount snow tires on your vehicle,
make sure they are radial tires of the
same size and load range as the original
tires. Mount snow tires on all four wheels
to balance your vehicle's handling in all
weather conditions. Keep in mind that
the traction provided by snow tires on
dry roads may not be as high as the
traction provided by the tires originally
installed on your vehicle. You should
drive cautiously even when the roads
are clear. Check with the tire dealer for
maximum speed recommendations.
Do not install studded tires without first
checking all applicable regulations for
possible restrictions on their use.
WARNING
Snow tires should be equivalent in size
and type to the vehicle's standard tires.
Otherwise, the safety and handling of
your vehicle may be adversely affected.

Driving your vehicle Winter driving
Tire chains
Fabric type
Because the sidewalls of radial tires are
thinner, they can be damaged by
mounting some types of snow chains on
them. Therefore, the use of snow tires is
recommended instead of snow chains.
Do not mount tire chains on vehicles
equipped with aluminum wheels; snow
chains may cause damage to the
wheels.
Damage to your vehicle caused by
improper snow chain use is not covered
by your vehicle manufacturer's war
-
ranty.
When using tire chains, attach them to
the drive wheels as follows.
僅 Rear wheel drive vehicle moves the
rear wheel as a power source. Thus,
snow chains must be mounted to rear
tires.
僅 All wheel drive vehicle must mount
snow chains to rear tires only. In this
situation, minimize the driving dis
-
tance in order to prevent damage to
the all-wheel drive system.
僅 After mounting snow chains, drive
slowly. If you hear noise caused by
chains contacting the body, slow
down until the noise stops and
remove the chain as soon as you
begin driving on cleared roads to pre
-
vent damage.
僅 Chains of the wrong size or which are
improperly installed can damage your
vehicle's brake lines, suspension,
body, and wheels. Therefore, when
installing snow chains, follow the
manufacturer's instructions and
mount them as tightly possible. Drive
slowly with chains installed, staying
under 30 km/h (20 mph).
僅 Install tire chains that meet the speci
-
fications of each tire size to prevent
damage your vehicle.
- All of tires use fabric snow chain.
CAUTION
僅 Make sure the snow chains are the
correct size and type for your tires.
Incorrect snow chains can cause dam
-
age to the vehicle body and suspen
-
sion and may not be covered by your
vehicle manufacturer warranty. Also,
the snow chain connecting hooks may
be damaged from contacting vehicle
components causing the snow chains
to come loose from the tire.
僅 Always check chain installation for
proper mounting after driving approx
-
imately 0.5 to 1 km (0.3 to 0.6 miles)
to ensure safe mounting. Retighten or
remount the chains if they are loose.
Check the battery and cables
Winter places additional burden the bat
-
tery system. Visually inspect the battery
and cables as described in section 8.
Have the level of charge in your battery
checked by a professional workshop. Kia
recommends visiting an authorized Kia
dealer/service partner.
To keep the locks from freezing
To keep the vehicle's locks from freez
-

approved de-icing fluid to remove the
ice. If the lock is frozen internally, you
may be able to thaw it out by using a
heated key. Handle the heated key with
care to avoid injury.
Use an approved window washer
anti-freeze for the window
washer system
To keep the water in the window washer
system from freezing, add an approved
window washer anti-freeze solution in
accordance with instructions on the con
-
tainer. Window washer anti-freeze is
available from an authorized Kia dealer/
service partner and most auto parts out
-
lets. Do not use coolant or other types of
anti-freeze as these may damage the
paint finish.
Do not let your parking brake
freeze
Under some conditions, your parking
brake can freeze in the applied position.
This is most likely to happen when there
is an accumulation of snow or ice
around or near the rear brakes or if the
brakes are wet. If there is risk of the
parking brake freezing, temporarily
apply it with the P (Park) gear position
selected. Block the rear wheels in
advance as well so that the vehicle can
-
not roll. Then, release the parking brake.
Do not let ice or snow accumulate
underneath
Under some conditions, snow and ice
can build up under the fenders and
interfere with the steering. When driving
in severe winter conditions where this
may happen, you should periodically
check underneath the vehicle to make
sure the movements of the front wheels
and the steering components are not
obstructed.
Carry emergency equipment
Depending on the severity of the
weather, you should carry appropriate
emergency equipment. Some of the
items you may want to carry include tire
chains, tow straps or chains, flashlight,
emergency flares, sand, shovel, jumper
cables, window scraper, gloves, ground
cloth, coveralls, blanket, etc.
Do not place objects or materials
in the motor compartment
Putting objects or materials in the motor
compartment may cause an motor fail

Driving your vehicle Trailer towing
Trailer towing (if equipped)
If you are considering towing with your
vehicle, you should first check with the
country's department of motor vehicles
to determine their legal requirements.
Since laws vary, the requirements for
towing trailers, other vehicles, and appa
-
ratus may differ. Kia recommends to ask
an authorized Kia dealer/service partner.
Your vehicle can tow a trailer. To identify
what the vehicle trailering capacity is for
your vehicle, refer to "Weight of the
trailer" on page 6-206 that appears later
in this section.
Remember that trailer towing is different
from simply driving your vehicle by
itself. Trailering means changes in han
-
dling, durability, and electric energy
economy. Successful, safe trailer towing
requires correct equipment, which has
to be used properly.
This section contains many time-tested
and important trailer-towing tips and
safety rules. Many of these are import
-
ant for your safety and that of your pas
-
sengers. Please read this section
carefully before towing a trailer.
WARNING
僅 If you don't use the correct equipment
and drive improperly, you can lose
control when you pull a trailer. For
example, if the trailer is too heavy, the
brakes may not work well - or even at
all. You and your passengers could be
seriously or fatally injured. Pull a
trailer only if you have followed all the
steps in this section.
僅 Before towing, make sure the total
trailer weight, gross combination
weight, gross vehicle weight, gross
axle weight and trailer tongue load
are all within the limits.
CAUTION
Pulling a trailer improperly can damage
your vehicle and result in costly repairs
not covered by your warranty. To pull a
trailer correctly, follow the advice in this
section.
NOTICE
僅 The mounting hole for hitches are
located on both sides of the under

Trailer towing
Hitches
It is important to have the correct hitch
equipment. Crosswinds, large trucks
going by, and rough roads are just a few
reasons why you will need the right
hitch. Here are some rules to follow:
僅 Do you have to make any holes in the
body of your vehicle when you install
a trailer hitch? If you do, be sure to
seal the holes when removing the
hitch later.
If you don't seal them, dirt and water
can get into your vehicle.
僅 The bumpers on your vehicle are not
intended for hitches. Do not attach
rental hitches or other bumper-type
hitches. Use only a frame-mounted
hitch that does not attach to the
bumper.
僅 Any part of the rear number plate or
lighting devices of the vehicle must
not be obscured by the mechanical
coupling device. If the rear number
plate and/or lighting devices can be
obscured partially by any part of the
mechanical coupling device, mechani
-
cal coupling devices that can not be
easily removed or repositioned with
-
out use of any tool, except an easily
operated (i.e. an effort not exceeding
20 N·m) release key which is supplied
by the manufacturer of the coupling
device, are not permitted for
use. Please note that the mechanical
coupling device that is fitted and not
in use must always be removed or
repositioned if the rear number plate
and/or rear lighting devices are
obscured by any part of the mechani
-
cal coupling device.
僅 Kia trailer hitch accessory is available
at an authorized Kia dealer/service
partner.
Safety chains
You should always attach chains
between your vehicle and your trailer.
Cross the safety chains under the
tongue of the trailer so that the tongue
will not drop to the road if it becomes
separated from the hitch.
Instructions about safety chains may be
provided by the hitch manufacturer or
by the trailer manufacturer. Follow the
manufacturer's recommendation for
attaching safety chains. Always leave
just enough slack so you can turn with
your trailer. Never allow safety chains to
drag on the ground.
Trailer brakes
If your trailer is equipped with a braking
system, make sure it conforms to the
country's regulations, and that it is prop
-
erly installed and it is operating cor
-
rectly.
If your trailer weighs more than the max
-
imum trailer weight without trailer
brakes loaded, then it needs its own
brakes, and those trailer brakes must be
adequate. Be sure to read and follow the
instructions for the trailer brakes so that
you will be able to install, adjust, and
maintain them properly.
僅 Do not tap into your vehicle's brake
system.
WARNING
Do not use a trailer with its own brakes
unless you are absolutely certain that
you have properly set up the brake sys
-
tem. This is not a task for amateurs. Use
an experienced, competent trailer shop
for this work.
Driving with a trailer
Towing a trailer requires a certain
amount of experience. Before setting
203

6
Driving your vehicle Trailer towing
out for the open road, you must get to
know your trailer. Acquaint yourself with
the feel of handling and braking with the
added weight of the trailer. Always keep
in mind that the vehicle you are driving
is now a lot longer and not nearly as
responsive as your vehicle is by itself.
Before you start, check the trailer hitch
and platform, safety chains, electrical
connector(s), lights, tires, and mirror
adjustment. If the trailer has electric
brakes, start your vehicle and trailer
moving, and then apply the trailer brake
controller by hand to make sure the
brakes are working. This lets you check
your electrical connection at the same
time.
During your trip, check occasionally to
make sure that the load is secure and
that the lights and trailer brakes are still
working.
NOTICE
When the ambient temperature is lower
than 0°C (32°F) and the remaining high
voltage battery is low, the power of the
vehicle with a trailer can be dropped,
causing a trouble in acceleration or drop
of the speed when driving hills.
When driving with a trailer, be sure to
charge the high voltage battery more
than 50% if the ambient temperature is
lower than 0°C (32°F).
Following distance
Stay at least twice as far behind the
vehicle ahead as you would when driv
-
ing your vehicle without a trailer. This
can help you avoid situations that
require heavy braking and sudden turns.
Passing
You will need more passing distance
ahead when towing a trailer. Likewise,
due to the increased vehicle length, you
will need to go much farther beyond the
passed vehicle before you can return to
your lane.
Reversing
Hold the bottom of the steering wheel
with one hand. Then, to move the trailer
to the left, just move your hand to the
left. To move the trailer to the right,
move your hand to the right. Always
reverse slowly and have someone guide
you, if possible.
Making turns
When turning with a trailer, make wider
turns than normal. This is to make sure
that your trailer does not hit soft shoul
-
ders, curbs, road signs, trees, or other
objects. Avoid jerky or sudden maneu
-
vers. Signal well in advance.
Turn signals when towing a
trailer
When you tow a trailer, your vehicle has
to have a different turn signal flasher
and extra wiring. The green arrows on
your instrument cluster will flash when
-
ever you signal a turn or lane change. If
properly connected, the trailer lights will
also flash to alert other drivers to the
fact that you are about to turn, change
lanes, or stop.
When towing a trailer, the green arrows
on your instrument cluster will flash for
turns even if the bulbs on the trailer are
burned out. Thus, you may think drivers
behind you are seeing your signals
when, in fact, they are not. It is important
Driving your vehicle
2046
Trailer towing
to check occasionally to make sure the
trailer bulbs are still working. You must
also check the lights every time you dis
-
connect, and then reconnect the wires.
Do not connect a trailer lighting system
directly to your vehicle's lighting system.
Use only an approved trailer wiring har
-
ness.
Seek assistance from a professional
workshop for the installation of the wir
-
ing harness.
Kia recommends visiting an authorized
Kia dealer/service partner.
WARNING
Failure to use an approved trailer wiring
harness could result in damage to the
vehicle electrical system and/or personal
injury.
Driving on grades
Reduce speed before you start down a
long or steep downgrade.
On a long uphill grade, shift down and
reduce your speed to around 70 km/h
(45 mph) to reduce the possibility of
motor overheating.
CAUTION
僅 To prevent motor overheating:
If you tow a trailer with the maximum
gross vehicle weight and maximum
trailer weight, it can cause the motor
to overheat. When driving in such
conditions, stop the vehicle until it
cools down. You may proceed once
the motor has cooled sufficiently.
When towing a trailer, your vehicle
speed may be much slower than the
general flow of traffic, especially when
climbing an uphill grade. Use the
outer lane when towing a trailer on an
uphill grade. Choose your vehicle
speed according to the maximum
posted speed limit for vehicles with
trailers, the steepness of the grade,
and your trailer weight.
僅 You must decide the driving speed
depending on trailer weight and uphill
grade to reduce the possibility of
motor overheating.
Parking on hills
Generally, if you have a trailer attached
to your vehicle, you should not park your
vehicle on a hill. Both your vehicle and
the trailer can be damaged if they unex
-
pectedly roll down the hill, and people
can be seriously or fatally injured.
If you ever need to park your trailer on a
hill, however, here is how to do it:
1. Pull the vehicle into the parking space.
Turn the steering wheel in the direc
-
tion of the curb (right if headed down
-
hill, left if headed up hill. For right-
hand drive, left if headed down hill,
right if headed up hill).
2. Engage the parking brake and shut
off the vehicle.
3. Place chocks under the trailer wheels
on the downhill side of the wheels.
4. Start the vehicle, hold the brakes, shift
to neutral, release the parking brake,
and slowly release the brakes until the
trailer chocks absorb the load.
5. Reapply the brakes, reapply the park
-
ing brake.
6. Shut off the vehicle and release the
vehicle brakes but leave the parking
brake applied.
WARNING
僅Parking your vehicle on a hill with a
trailer attached could cause serious
205

Driving your vehicle Trailer towing
injury or death, should the trailer
break loose.
僅 It can be dangerous to get out of your
vehicle if the parking brake is not
firmly set. If you have left the vehicle
running, the vehicle can move sud
-
denly. You or others could be seri
-
ously or fatally injured.
When you are ready to leave
after parking on a hill
1. Apply your brakes and hold the brake
pedal down while:
僅 Start your vehicle;
僅 Shift into gear; and
僅 Release the parking brake.
2. Slowly remove your foot from the
brake pedal.
3. Drive slowly until the trailer is clear of
the chocks.
4. Stop and have someone pick up and
store the chocks.
Maintenance when towing a
trailer
Your vehicle will need to be serviced
more often if you regularly pull a trailer.
Important items to pay particular atten
-
tion to include reduction gear fluid, axle
lubricant and cooling system fluid. Brake
condition is another important item to
check frequently. Each item is covered in
this manual, and the Index will help you
find them quickly. If you are towing a
trailer, it is a good idea to review these
sections before starting your trip.
Do not forget to maintain your trailer
and hitch as well. Make sure you are
aware of the maintenance schedule
specified for your trailer, and that you
carry out its periodic checks. Preferably,
conduct your checks at the start of each
day's driving. Most importantly, all hitch
nuts and bolts should be tight.
CAUTION
僅 Due to higher load during trailer
usage, overheating might occur in hot
days or during uphill driving.
僅 When towing, check the reduction
gear fluid more frequently.
If you do decide to tow a trailer
Here are some important points if you
decide to tow a trailer:
僅 Consider using a sway control. You
can ask a hitch dealer about sway
control.
僅 Do not do any towing with your vehi
-
cle during its first 2,000 km (1,200
miles) in order to allow the motor to
properly break in. Failure to heed this
caution may result in serious motor
damage.
僅 When towing a trailer, Kia recom
-
mends that you consult an authorized
Kia dealer/service partner on addi
-
tional requirements such as a towing
kit, etc.
僅 Always drive your vehicle at moderate
speed of less than 100 km/h (60
mph).
僅 The driving range of Electric Vehicle
could be affected by the shape and
weight of the trailer. Depending on
the trailer, the driving range could
decrease by 50%.
僅 On a long uphill grade, do not exceed
70 km/h (45 mph) or the posted tow
-
ing speed limit, whichever is lower.
僅 The chart contains important consid
-
erations that have to do with weight:
Driving your vehicle
2066
Trailer towing
Weight of the trailer
What is the maximum safe weight of a
trailer? It should never weigh more than
the maximum trailer weight with trailer
brakes. But even that can be too heavy.
It depends on how you plan to use your
trailer. For example, speed, altitude, road
grades, and outside temperature as well
as how often your vehicle is used to tow
a trailer are all important. The ideal
trailer weight can also depend on any
special equipment that you have on your
vehicle.
Weight of the trailer tongue
The tongue load of any trailer is an
important weight to measure because it
affects the total gross vehicle weight
(GVW) of your vehicle. This weight
includes the curb weight of the vehicle,
any cargo you may carry in it, and the
people who will be riding in the vehicle.
And if you tow a trailer, you must add
the tongue load to the GVW because
your vehicle will also be carrying that
weight.
The trailer tongue should weigh a maxi
-
mum of 10% of the total loaded trailer
weight, within the limits of the maximum
trailer tongue load permissible.
After you have loaded your trailer, weigh
the trailer and then the tongue sepa
-
rately to see if the weights are accept
-
able. If they are not, you may be able to
correct them simply by moving some
items around in the trailer.
WARNING
僅 Never load a trailer with more weight
in the rear than in the front. The front
should be loaded with approximately
60% of the total trailer load; the rear
should be loaded with approximately
40% of the total trailer load.
僅 Never exceed the maximum weight
limits of the trailer or trailer towing
equipment. Improper loading can
result in damage to your vehicle and/
or personal injury. Check weights and
loading at a commercial scale or high
-
way patrol office equipped with
scales.
僅 An improperly loaded trailer can
cause loss of vehicle control.

Driving your vehicle Vehicle weight
Vehicle weight
This section will give you guidance on
the proper loading of your vehicle to
keep your loaded vehicle weight within
its design rating capability. Properly
loading your vehicle will help you use
the vehicle's design performance to
maximum advantage. Before loading
your vehicle, familiarize yourself with the
following terms for determining your
vehicle's weight ratings, which are used
in the vehicle's specifications and on the
certification label (if equipped):
Base curb weight
This is the weight of the vehicle includ
-
ing all standard equipment. It does not
include passengers, cargo, or optional
equipment.
Vehicle curb weight
This is the weight of the vehicle includ
-
ing high voltage battery and all standard
equipment. It does not include passen
-
gers, cargo, or optional equipment.
Cargo weight
This figure includes all weight added to
the Base Curb Weight, including cargo
and optional equipment.
GAW (Gross axle weight)
This is the total weight placed on each
axle (front and rear) - including vehicle
curb weight and all payload.
GAWR (Gross axle weight rating)
This is the maximum allowable weight
that can be carried by a single axle (front
or rear). These numbers are shown on
the certification label (if equipped).
The total load on each axle must never
exceed its GAWR.
GVW (Gross vehicle weight)
This is the base curb weight plus the
actual cargo weight plus passengers.
GVWR (Gross vehicle weight rat
-
ing)
This is the maximum allowable weight of
the fully loaded vehicle (including all
options, equipment, passengers, and
cargo). The GVWR is shown on the certi
-
fication label (if equipped) located on
the driver's (or front passenger's) door
sill.
Overloading
WARNING
Vehicle weight
The gross axle weight rating (GAWR)
and the gross vehicle weight rating
(GVWR) for your vehicle are on the Cer
-
tification Label attached to the driver's
(or front passenger's) door. Exceeding
these ratings can cause an accident or
vehicle damage. You can calculate the
weight of your load by weighing the
items (and people) before putting them
in the vehicle. Be careful not to overload
your vehicle.

inal tires and inflation pressures needed
to obtain the gross weight capacity of
your vehicle.
This is called the GVWR (Gross Vehicle
Weight Rating). The GVWR includes the
weight of the vehicle, all occupants and
cargo. The Certification/Tire label also
tells you the maximum weights for the
front and rear axles, called Gross Axle
Weight Rating (GAWR).
Never exceed the GVWR for your vehi
-
cle, or the Gross Axle Weight Rating
(GAWR) for either the front or rear axle.
And, if you do have a heavy load, you
should spread it out.
Your warranty does not cover parts or
components that fail because of over
-
loading.
Do not load your vehicle any heavier
than the GVWR or the maximum front
and rear GAWRs. If you do, change to
the vehicle may occur, or it can change
the way your vehicle handles. These
could cause you to lose control. Also,
overloading can shorten the life of your

What to do in an emergency Emergency starting
WARNING
僅 Keep all flames or sparks away from
the battery. The battery produces
hydrogen gas which may explode if
exposed to flame or sparks. If these
instructions are not followed exactly,
serious personal injury and damage to
the vehicle may occur! If you are not
sure how to follow this procedure,
seek qualified assistance. Automobile
batteries contain sulfuric acid. This is
poisonous and highly corrosive. When
jump starting, wear protective glasses
and be careful not to get acid on your
-
self, your clothing or on the vehicle.
僅 Do not attempt to jump start the vehi
-
cle if the discharged battery is frozen
or if the electrolyte level is low; the
battery may rupture or explode.
僅 Do not allow the (+) and (-) jumper
cables to touch. It may cause sparks.
僅 Never attempt to check the electrolyte
level of the battery as this may cause
the battery to rupture or explode
causing serious injury.
僅 The battery may rupture or explode
when you jump start with a low or fro

CAUTION
Use only a 12-volt jumper system. You
can damage other electrical parts
beyond repair by use of a 24- volt power
supply (either two 12-volt batteries in
series or a 24-volt motor generator set).
NOTICE
Do not connect the jumper cable from
the negative terminal of the booster bat

INFORMATION
僅 You can change the tire pressure unit
in the user settings mode on the clus

ter.
- psi, kpa, bar (Refer to "LCD display
modes" on page 5-47.)
僅 Each tire should be checked monthly
when cold and inflated to the inflation
pressure recommended by the vehi
-
cle manufacturer on the vehicle plac
-
ard or tire inflation pressure label.
(If your vehicle has tires of a different
size than the size indicated on the
vehicle placard or tire inflation pres
-
sure label, you should determine the
proper tire inflation pressure for those
tires.)
As an added safety feature, your vehi
-
cle has been equipped with a tire
pressure monitoring system (TPMS)
that illuminates a low tire pressure
telltale when one or more of your tires
is significantly under-inflated. Accord
-
ingly, when the low tire pressure tell
-
tale illuminates, you should stop and
check your tires as soon as possible,
and inflate them to the proper pres
-
sure. Driving on a significantly under-
inflated tire causes the tire to over
-
heat and can lead to tire failure.
Under-inflation also reduces electric
energy efficiency and tire tread life,
and may affect the vehicle's handling
and stopping ability.
Note that the TPMS is not a substitute
for proper tire maintenance, and it is
the driver's responsibility to maintain
correct tire pressure, even if under-
inflation has not reached the level to
trigger illumination of the TPMS low
tire pressure telltale.
Your vehicle has also been equipped
with a TPMS malfunction indicator to
indicate when the system is not oper
-
ating properly. The TPMS malfunction
indicator is combined with the low tire
pressure telltale. When the system
detects a malfunction, the telltale will
flash for approximately 1 minute and
then remain continuously illuminated.
This sequence will continue upon sub
-
sequent vehicle start-ups as long as
the malfunction exists. When the
TPMS malfunction indicator remains
illuminated after blinking for approxi
-
mately 1 minute, the system may not
be able to detect or signal low tire
pressure as intended.

What to do in an emergency Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)
TPMS malfunctions may occur for a
variety of reasons, including the
installation of replacement or alter

ing properly. Always check the TPMS
malfunction telltale after replacing
one or more tires or wheels on your
vehicle to ensure that the replace

WARNING
Significantly low tire pressure makes the
vehicle unstable and can contribute to
loss of vehicle control and increased
braking distances.
Continued driving on low pressure tires
can cause the tires to overheat and fail.
CAUTION
僅 In winter or cold weather, the low tire
pressure telltale may illuminate if the
tire pressure was adjusted to the rec

INFORMATION
You may not be able to identify a low tire
by simply looking at it. Always use a
good quality tire pressure gauge to mea
-
sure the tire's inflation pressure. Note
that a tire that is hot (from being driven)
will have a higher pressure measure
-
ment than a tire that is cold (from sitting
stationary for at least 3 hours and driven
less than 1 mile (1.6 km) during that 3
hour period).
Allow the tire to cool before measuring
the inflation pressure. Always be sure
the tire is cold before inflating to the rec
-
ommended pressure.
A cold tire means the vehicle has been
sitting for 3 hours and driven for less
than 1 mile (1.6 km) in that 3 hour period.
WARNING
僅 The TPMS cannot alert you to severe
and sudden tire damage caused by
external factors such as nails or road
debris.

Sealant bottle
The Tire Mobility Kit is not designed or
intended as a permanent tire repair
method and is to be used for one tire
only.
The system with compressor and sealing
compound seals most tire punctures
caused by nails or similar objects and
reinflates the tire. However, larger punc
-
tures or sidewall damage cannot be
sealed completely.
After ensuring that the tire is properly
sealed, you can drive cautiously on the
tire (for a distance of up to 200 km (120
miles)) at maximum speed of 80 km/h
(50 mph) in order to reach a service sta
-
tion or a tire dealer to have the tire
replaced.
Avoid abrupt steering or other driving
maneuvers if the vehicle is heavily
loaded or if a trailer is in use.
Refer to "Safe use of the Tire Mobility
Kit" on page 7-14.
WARNING
僅 Do not use the Tire Mobility Kit to
repair punctures in the tire walls. This
can result in an accident due to tire
failure.
僅 Have your tire repaired as soon as
possible. The tire may loose air pres
-
sure at any time after inflating with
the Tire Mobility Kit.
僅 Do not use the TMK if a tire is severely
damaged by driving run flat or with
insufficient air pressure. Only punc
-
tured areas located within the tread
region of the tire can be sealed using
the TMK.
僅 Do not use the Tire sealant after the
sealant has expired (i.e. past the expi
-
ration date on the sealant container).
This can increase the risk of tire fail
-
ure.
僅 Keep the sealant out of reach of chil
-
dren, avoid sealant contact with eyes
and do not swallow the sealant.
CAUTION
When two or more tires are flat, do not
use the tire mobility kit because the sup
-
ported one sealant of Tire Mobility Kit is
only used for one flat tire.

Maintenance Coolant
Coolant
Check the condition and connections of
all the cooling system hoses and heater
hoses. Replace any swollen or deterio
-
rated hoses.
The coolant level should be filled
between the MAX or F and the MIN or L
marks on the side of the coolant reser
-
voir when the parts in the motor com
-
partment is cool.
If the coolant is low, we recommend to
visit an authorized Kia dealer/service
partner.
WARNING
The electric motor for the
cooling fan may continue to
operate or start up when the
vehicle is not running and can cause
serious injury.
Keep hands, clothing and tools away
from the rotating fan blades of the cool
-
ing fan.
The electric motor for the cooling fan is
controlled by vehicle coolant tempera
-
ture, refrigerant pressure and vehicle
speed. As the vehicle coolant tempera
-
ture decreases, the electric motor will
automatically shut off. This is a normal
condition.
Brake fluid
Checking the brake fluid level
Operation
僅 Clean the area around the reservoir
cap.
僅 Periodically check that the fluid level
in the brake fluid reservoir is between
MIN and MAX. The level will fall as the
vehicle's mileage increases. This is a
normal condition associated with the
wear of the brake linings.
Use only the specified brake fluid. (Refer
to "Recommended lubricants and capac
-
ities" on page 9-7.)
INFORMATION
If the fluid level is excessively low, have
the system checked by a professional
workshop. Kia recommends visiting an
authorized Kia dealer/service partner.
WARNING

Tire care
For proper maintenance, safety, and
maximum electric energy economy, you
must always maintain recommended tire
inflation pressures and stay within the
load limits and weight distribution rec
-
ommended for your vehicle.
Recommended cold tire inflation
pressures
All specifications (sizes and pressures)
can be found on a label attached to the
vehicle.
INFORMATION
All tire pressures (including the spare)
should be checked when the tires are
cold. "Cold Tires" means the vehicle has
not been driven for at least three hours
or driven less than 1.6 km (1 mile).
Checking tire inflation pressure
僅 Remove the valve cap from the tire
valve stem. Press the tire gauge firmly
onto the valve to get a pressure mea
-
surement. If the pressure is low, add
air until you reach the recommended
amount.
僅 If you overfill the tire, release air by
pushing on the metal stem in the cen

Tires and wheels
WARNING
僅 Overinflation or underinflation can
reduce tire life, adversely affect vehi
-
cle handling, and lead to sudden tire
failure. This could result in loss of
vehicle control and potential injury.
僅 Severe underinflation (70 kPa (10 psi)
or more) can lead to severe heat
build-up, causing blowouts, tread sep
-
aration and other tire failures that can
result in the loss of vehicle control
leading to severe injury or death. This
risk is much higher on hot days and
when driving for long periods at high
speeds.
僅 Inspect your tires frequently for
proper inflation as well as wear and
damage. Always use a tire pressure
gauge.
僅 Tires with too much or too little pres
-
sure wear unevenly causing poor han
-
dling, loss of vehicle control, and
sudden tire failure leading to acci
-
dents, injuries, and even death. The
recommended cold tire pressure for
your vehicle can be found in this man
-
ual and on the tire label located on the
driver's side center pillar.
僅 Worn tires can cause accidents.
Replace tires that are worn, show
uneven wear, or are damaged.
僅 Remember to check the pressure of
your spare tire. Kia recommends that
you check the spare every time you
check the pressure of the other tires
on your vehicle.
CAUTION
僅 Underinflation also results in exces
-
sive wear, poor handling and reduced
electric energy economy. Wheel
deformation also is possible. Keep
your tire pressures at the proper lev
-
els. If a tire frequently needs refilling,
have the system checked by a profes
-
sional workshop. Kia recommends to
visit an authorized Kia dealer/service
partner.
僅 Overinflation produces a harsh ride,
excessive wear at the center of the
tire tread, and a greater possibility of
damage from road hazards.
僅 Warm tires normally exceed recom
-
mended cold tire pressures by 28 to
41 kPa (4 to 6 psi). Do not release air
from warm tires to adjust the pressure
or the tires will be underinflated.
僅 Be sure to reinstall the tire inflation
valve caps. Without the valve cap, dirt
or moisture could get into the valve
core and cause air leakage. If a valve
cap is missing, install a new one as
soon as possible.
僅 Always observe the following:
- Check tire pressure when the tires
are cold. (After vehicle has been
parked for at least three hours or
hasn't been driven more than 1.6
km (one mile) since startup.)
- Check the pressure of your spare
tire each time you check the pres
-
sure of other tires.
- Never overload your vehicle. Be
careful not to overload a vehicle
luggage rack if your vehicle is
equipped with one.
- Worn, old tires can cause accidents.
If your tread is badly worn, or if
your tires have been damaged,
replace them.

Maintenance Tires and wheels
Tire rotation
To equalize tread wear, it is recom
-
mended that the tires be rotated every
10,000 km (6,500 miles) or sooner if
irregular wear develops.
WARNING
僅 Do not use the compact spare tire for
tire rotation.
僅 Do not mix bias ply and radial ply tires
under any circumstances. This may
cause unusual handling characteris
-
tics that could result in death, severe
injury, or property damage.
NOTICE
Rotate radial tires that have an asym
-
metric tread pattern only from front to
rear and not from right to left.
Wheel alignment and tire balance
The wheels on your vehicle were aligned
and balanced carefully at the factory to
give you the longest tire life and best
overall performance.
If you notice your vehicle vibrating when
driving on a smooth road, your wheels
may need to be rebalanced.
CAUTION
Improper wheel weights can damage
your vehicle's aluminum wheels. Use
only approved wheel weights.
Tire replacement
A: Tread wear indicator
If the tire is worn evenly, a tread wear
Indicator will appear as a solid band
across the tread.
This shows there is less than 1.6 mm (1/
16 in.) of tread left on the tire. Replace
the tire when this happens.
Do not wait for the band to appear
across the entire tread before replacing
the tire.
Compact spare tire replacement
(if equipped)
A compact spare tire has a shorter tread
life than a regular size tire. Replace it
when you can see the tread wear indica
-
tor bars on the tire. The replacement
compact spare tire should be the same
size and design tire as the one provided
with your new vehicle and should be
mounted on the same compact spare
tire wheel. The compact spare tire is not
designed to be mounted on a regular
size wheel, and the compact spare tire
wheel is not designed for mounting a
regular size tire.
WARNING
To reduce the chance of serious or fatal
injuries from an accident caused by tire
failure or loss of vehicle control:
僅 Replace tires that are worn, show
uneven wear, or are damaged. Worn
tires can cause loss of braking effec

tion.
僅 Do not drive your vehicle with too little
or too much pressure in your tires.
This can lead to uneven wear and tire
failure.
僅 When replacing tires, never mix radial
and bias-ply tires on the same car.
You must replace all tires (including
the spare) if moving from radial to
bias-ply tires.
僅 It is best to replace all four tires at the
same time. If that is not possible, or
necessary, then replace the two front
or two rear tires as a pair.
Replacing just one tire can seriously
affect your vehicle's handling.
僅 Using tires and wheels other than the
recommended sizes could cause
unusual handling characteristics and
poor vehicle control, resulting in a
serious accident.
僅 Wheels that do not meet Kia's specifi
-
cations may fit poorly and result in
damage to the vehicle or unusual
handling and poor vehicle control.
僅 The ABS works by comparing the
speed of the wheels. The tire size
affects wheel speed. When replacing
tires, all 4 tires must use the same
size, type, construction and tread pat
-
tern originally supplied with the vehi
-
cle. Using tires of a different size can
cause the ABS (Anti-lock Brake Sys
-
tem) and ESC (Electronic Stability
Control) to work irregularly.
CAUTION
When replacing the tires, recheck and
tighten the wheel nuts after driving
about 50 km (31 miles) and recheck
after driving about 1,000 km (620
miles). If the steering wheel shakes or
the vehicle vibrates while driving, the tire
is out of balance. Align the tire balance. If
the problem is not solved, contact a pro
-
fessional workshop. Kia recommends to
visit an authorized Kia dealer/service
partner.
NOTICE
We recommend that when replacing
tires, use the same originally supplied
with the vehicles. If not, that affects driv
-
ing performance.
Wheel replacement
Make sure the new wheels are equiva
-
lent to the original factory units in diam
-
eter, rim width and offset.
WARNING
A wheel that is not the correct size may
adversely affect wheel and bearing life,
braking and stopping abilities, handling
characteristics, ground clearance, body-
to-tire clearance, snow chain clearance,
speedometer and odometer calibration,
headlight aim and bumper height.
Tire traction
Tire traction can be reduced if you drive
on worn tires, tires that are improperly
inflated or on slippery road surfaces.
Tires should be replaced when tread
wear indicators appear. Slow down
whenever there is rain, snow or ice on
the road to reduce the possibility of los
-
ing control of the vehicle.
Tire maintenance
In addition to proper inflation, correct
wheel alignment helps to decrease tire
wear. If you find a tire is worn unevenly,
have a professional workshop check the
wheel alignment. Kia recommends to

-
tion number (TIN) for safety standard
certification. The TIN can be used to
identify the tire in case of a recall.
1. Manufacturer or brand name
Manufacturer or brand name is shown.
2. Tire size designation
A tire's sidewall is marked with a tire size
designation. You will need this informa
-
tion when selecting replacement tires for
your vehicle.
Example tire size designation:
(These numbers are provided as an
example only.)
P235/55R19 108T
235 - Tire width in millimeters.

resents that the tire was produced in the
16th week of 2022.
WARNING
Tires degrade over time, even when they
are not being used. Regardless of the
remaining tread, we recommend that
tires be replaced after approximately 6
years of normal service. Heat caused by
hot climates or frequent high loading
conditions can accelerate the aging pro
-
cess. Failure to follow this warning can
result in sudden tire failure, which could
lead to a loss of control and an accident
involving serious injury or death.
4. Tire ply composition and mate
-
rial
The number of layers or plies of rubber-
coated fabric in the tire. Tire manufac

radial ply construction; the letter "D"
means diagonal or bias ply construction;
and the letter "B" means belted-bias ply
construction.
5. Maximum permissible inflation
pressure
This number is the greatest amount of
air pressure that should be put in the
tire. Do not exceed the maximum per
-
missible inflation pressure. Refer to "Tire
specification and pressure label" on
page 9-8.
6. Maximum load rating
This number indicates the maximum
load in kilograms and pounds that can
be carried by the tire. When replacing
the tires on the vehicle, always use a tire
that has the same load rating as the fac

7. Uniform tire quality grading
Quality grades can be found where
applicable on the tire sidewall between
tread shoulder and maximum section
width.
For example:

acteristics.
僅 The temperature grade for this tire is
established for a tire that is properly
inflated and not overloaded. Exces
-
sive speed, under inflation, or exces

sive loading, either separately or in
combination, can cause heat build-up
in tire and sudden tire failure. This can
cause loss of vehicle control and seri

Maintenance Tires and wheels
Tread wear
The tread wear grade is a comparative
rating based on the wear rate of the tire
when tested under controlled conditions
on a specified government test course.
For example, a tire graded 150 would
wear one-and-a-half times (1½) as well
on the government course as a tire
graded 100.
The relative performance of tires
depends upon the actual conditions of
their use, however, and may depart sig
-
nificantly from the norm due to varia
-
tions in driving habits, service practices
and differences in road characteristics
and climate.
The tires available as standard or
optional equipment on your vehicle may
vary with respect to grade.
Traction - AA, A, B & C
The traction grades, from highest to low
-
est, are AA, A, B and C. Those grades
represent the tire's ability to stop on wet
pavement as measured under controlled
conditions on specified government test
surfaces of asphalt and concrete. A tire
marked C may have poor traction per
-
formance.
Temperature -A, B & C
The temperature grades are A (the high
-
est), B, and C, representing the tire's
resistance to the generation of heat and
its ability to dissipate heat when tested
under controlled conditions on a speci
-
fied indoor laboratory test wheel.
Sustained high temperature can cause
the material of the tire to degenerate
and reduce tire life, and excessive tem
-
perature can lead to sudden tire failure.
Grades B and A represent higher levels
of performance on the laboratory test
wheel than the minimum required by
law.
Low aspect ratio tire (if
equipped)
Low aspect ratio tires, whose aspect
ratio is lower than 50, are provided for
sporty looks.
Because the low aspect ratio tires are
optimized for handling and braking, it
may be more uncomfortable to ride in
and there is more noise compare with
normal tires.
CAUTION
僅 Because the sidewall of the low aspect
ratio tire is shorter than the normal,
the wheel and tire of the low aspect
ratio tire is easier to be damaged. So,
follow the instructions below.
- When driving on a rough road or
off road, drive cautiously because
tires and wheels may be damaged.
And after driving, inspect tires and
wheels.
- When passing over a pothole,
speed bump, manhole, or curb
stone, drive slowly so that the tires
and wheels are not damaged.
- If the tire is impacted, inspect the
tire condition or contact a profes

Bulb replacement precautions
Turn off the vehicle at a safe place,
firmly apply the side brake and take out
the battery's negative (-) terminal. Use
only the bulbs of the specified wattage.
Lamp part malfunction due to
network failure
Lamp part malfunction may be caused
by network failure or vehicle electrical
control system malfunction. If there is a
problem, have the system serviced by a
professional workshop. Kia recommends
to visit an authorized Kia dealer/service
partner.
Lamp part malfunction due to
electrical control system stabili
-
zation
A normally functioning lamp may flicker
momentarily. This momentary occur
-
rence is due to stabilization unction of
the vehicle's electrical on control system.
If the lamp soon returns to normal, the
vehicle does not require service.
However, if the lamp goes out after the
momentary flickering, or the flickering
continues, have the system serviced by
a professional workshop. Kia recom
-
mends to visit an authorized Kia dealer/
service partner.
WARNING
僅 Prior to working on the light, firmly
apply the parking brake, press the EV
button to the OFF position and turn
off the lights to avoid sudden move
-
ment of the vehicle and burning your
fingers or receiving an electric shock.
僅 Be sure to replace the burned out
bulb with one of the same wattage
rating. Otherwise, it may cause exten
-
sive wiring damage and possible fire.
- Be aware the bulbs may be hot and
may burn your fingers.
CAUTION
僅 If you don't have necessary tools, the
correct bulbs and the expertise, con
-
sult a professional workshop. Kia rec
-
ommends to consult an authorized
Kia dealer/service partner.
僅 In many cases, it is difficult to replace
vehicle light bulbs because other
parts of the vehicle must be removed
before you can get to the bulb. This is
especially true if you have to remove
the headlight assembly to get to the
bulb(s). Removing/installing the head
-
light assembly can result in damage
to the vehicle.
僅 Removing/installing the headlamp
assembly can result in damage to the
vehicle. Use only Kia Genuine Parts or
those of an equivalent standard part.
If not, it may lead to blowing a fuse or
other wiring damages.
僅 Do not install extra lamps or LED to
the vehicle. If supplementary lights
are installed, it may lead to lamp mal
-
function and flickering of the lights. In
addition, the fuse box and other wir
-
ing may be damaged.
NOTICE
僅 If the light bulb or lamp connector is
removed from an operating lamp acti
-
vated by electricity, the fuse box's
electronic device may scan it as a
malfunction. Therefore, a lamp mal
-
function history may be recorded in
Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) in the
fuse box.
Maintenance
348
Lamps
僅 It is normal for an operating lamp may
blink temporarily. Since this occur
-
rence is due stabilization function of
the vehicle's electronic control device,
if the lamp lights up normally after
temporary blinking, there is no prob
-
lem in the vehicle.
However, if the lamp continues to
blink several times or turn off com
-
pletely, there may be an error in the
vehicle's electronic control device. In
this case, have the vehicle checked by
a professional workshop immedi
-
ately. Kia recommends to visit an
authorized Kia dealer/service partner.
僅 After an accident or after the head
-
light assembly is reinstalled, have the
headlight aiming adjusted by a pro
-
fessional workshop. Kia recommends
to visit an authorized Kia dealer/ser
-
vice partner.
僅 After driving in heavy rain or washing,
headlamp and taillamp lenses could
appear frosty. This condition is caused
by the temperature difference
between the lamp inside and outside.
This is similar to the condensation on
your windows inside your vehicle
during the rain and doesn't indicate a
problem with your vehicle. If the water
leaks into the lamp bulb circuitry,
have the vehicle checked by a profes
-
sional workshop. Kia recommends to
visit an authorized Kia dealer/service
partner.
NOTICE

Finish maintenance
Washing
To help protect your vehicle's finish from
rust and deterioration, wash it thor
-
oughly and frequently at least once a
month with lukewarm or cold water.
If you use your vehicle for off-road driv
-
ing, you should wash it after each off-
road trip. Pay special attention to the
removal of any accumulation of salt, dirt,
mud, and other foreign materials. Make
sure the drain holes in the lower edges
of the doors and rocker panels are kept
clear and clean. Insects, tar, tree sap,
bird droppings, industrial pollution and
similar deposits can damage your vehi
-
cle's finish if not removed immediately.
Even prompt washing with plain water
may not completely remove all these
deposits. A mild soap, safe for use on
painted surfaces, may be used. After
washing, rinse the vehicle thoroughly
with lukewarm or cold water. Do not
allow soap to dry on the finish.
WARNING
After washing the vehicle, test the
brakes while driving slowly to see if they
have been affected by water. If braking
performance is impaired, dry the brakes
by applying them lightly while maintain
-
ing a slow forward speed.
CAUTION
僅 Do not use strong soap, chemical
detergents or hot water, and do not
wash the vehicle in direct sunlight or
when the body of the vehicle is warm.
僅 Be careful when washing the side win
-
dows of your vehicle. Especially, with
high-pressure water, water may leak
through the windows and wet the
interior.
僅 To prevent damage to the plastic
parts and lamps, do not clean with

Maintenance Appearance care
High-pressure washing
僅 When using high-pressure washers,
make sure to maintain sufficient dis
-
tance from the vehicle.
Insufficient clearance or excessive
pressure can lead to component dam
-
age or water penetration.
僅 Do not spray the camera, sensors or
its surrounding area directly with a
high pressure washer. Shock applied
from high pressure water may cause
the device to not operate normally.
僅 Do not bring the nozzle tip close to
boots (rubber or plastic covers) or
connectors as they may be damaged
if they come into contact with high
pressure water.
CAUTION
僅 Water washing in the motor compart
-
ment including high pressure water
washing may cause the failure of elec
-
trical circuits located in the motor
compartment.
僅 Never allow water or other liquids to
come in contact with electrical/elec
-
tronic components inside the vehicle
as this may damage them.
NOTICE
Matte paint finish vehicle (if
equipped)
Automatic car wash which uses rotating
brushes should not be used as this can
damage the surface of your vehicle. A
steam cleaner which washes the vehicle
surface at high temperature may result
the oil to adhere and leave stains that is
difficult to remove.
Use a soft cloth (e.g. microfiber towel or
sponge) when washing your vehicle and
dry with a microfiber towel. When you
hand wash your vehicle, you should not
use a cleaner that finishes with wax. If
the vehicle surface is too dirty (sand,
dirt, dust, contaminant, etc.), clean the
surface with water before washing the
car.
Waxing
Wax the vehicle when water will no lon
-
ger bead on the paint.
Always wash and dry the vehicle before
waxing. Use a good quality liquid or
paste wax, and follow the manufac
-
turer's instructions. Wax all metal trim to
protect it and to maintain its luster.
Removing oil, tar, and similar materials
with a spot remover will usually strip the
wax from the finish. Be sure to re-wax
these areas even if the rest of the vehicle
does not yet need waxing. Do not apply
wax on embossed unpainted unit, as it
may tarnish the unit.
CAUTION
僅 Wiping dust or dirt off the body with a
dry cloth will scratch the finish.
僅 Do not use steel wool, abrasive clean
-
ers, acid detergents or strong deter
-
gents containing high alkaline or
caustic agents on chrome-plated or
anodized aluminum parts. This may
result in damage to the protective
coating and cause discoloration or

Appearance care
NOTICE
Matte paint finish vehicle (if
equipped)
Do not use any polish protector such as
a detergent, an abrasive and a polish. In
case wax is applied, remove the wax
immediately using a silicon remover and
if any tar or tar contaminant is on the
surface use a tar remover to clean. How
-
ever, be careful not to apply too much
pressure on the painted area.
Finish damage repair
Deep scratches or stone chips in the
painted surface must be repaired
promptly. Exposed metal will quickly rust
and may develop into a major repair
expense.
NOTICE
僅 If your vehicle is damaged and
requires any metal repair or replace
-
ment, be sure the body shop applies
anti-corrosion materials to the parts
repaired or replaced.
僅 Matte paint finish vehicle (if
equipped)
In case of matte paint finish vehicles,
it is impossible to modify only the
damaged area and repair of the whole
part is necessary. If the vehicle is
damaged and painting is required, we
recommend that you have your vehi
-
cle maintained and repaired by an
authorized Kia dealer/service partner.
Take extreme care, as it is difficult to
restore the quality after the repair.
Bright-metal maintenance
僅 To remove road tar and insects, use a
tar remover, not a scraper or other
sharp object.
僅 To protect the surfaces of bright
metal parts from corrosion, apply a
coating of wax or chrome preserva
-
tive and rub to a high luster.
僅 During winter weather or in coastal
areas, cover the bright metal parts
with a heavier coating of wax or pre
-
servative. If necessary, coat the parts
with non-corrosive petroleum jelly or
other protective compound.
Underbody maintenance
Corrosive materials used for ice and
snow removal and dust control may col
-
lect on the underbody. If these materials
are not removed, accelerated rusting
can occur on underbody parts such as
the frame, floor pan, even though they
have been treated with rust protection.
Thoroughly flush the vehicle underbody
and wheel openings with lukewarm or
cold water once a month, after off-road
driving and at the end of each winter.
Pay special attention to these areas
because it is difficult to see all the mud
and dirt. It will do more harm than good
to wet down the road grime without
removing it. The lower edges of the
doors, rocker panels, and frame mem
-
bers have drain holes that should not
clog with dirt; trapped water in these
areas can cause rusting.
WARNING
After washing the vehicle, test the
brakes while driving slowly to see if they
have been affected by water. If braking
performance is impaired, dry the brakes

ing a slow forward speed.
Aluminum wheel maintenance
The aluminum wheels are coated with a
clear protective finish.
僅 Do not use any abrasive cleaner, pol
-
ishing compound, solvent, or wire
brushes on aluminum wheels. They
may scratch or damage the finish.
僅 Clean the wheel when it has cooled.
僅 Use only a mild soap or neutral deter
-
gent, and rinse thoroughly with water.
Also, be sure to clean the wheels after
driving on salted roads. This helps
prevent corrosion.
僅 Avoid washing the wheels with high-
speed car wash brushes.
僅 Do not use any alkaline or acid deter
-
gent. It may damage and corrode the
aluminum wheels coated with a clear
protective finish.
Corrosion protection
Protecting your vehicle from cor
-
rosion
By using the most advanced design and
construction practices to combat corro
-
sion, we produce vehicles of the highest
quality. However, this is only part of the
job. To achieve the longterm corrosion
resistance your vehicle can deliver, the
owner's cooperation and assistance is
also required.
Common causes of corrosion
The most common causes of corrosion
on your vehicle are:
僅 Road salt, dirt and moisture that is
allowed to accumulate underneath
the vehicle.
僅 Removal of paint or protective coat
-
ings by stones, gravel, abrasion or
minor scrapes and dents which leave
unprotected metal exposed to corro
-
sion.
High-corrosion areas
If you live in an area where your vehicle
is regularly exposed to corrosive materi
-
als, corrosion protection is particularly
important. Some of the common causes
of accelerated corrosion are road salts,
dust control chemicals, ocean air and
industrial pollution.
Moisture breeds corrosion
Moisture creates the conditions in which
corrosion is most likely to occur. For
example, corrosion is accelerated by
high humidity, particularly when tem
-
peratures are just above freezing. In
such conditions, the corrosive material is
kept in contact with the vehicle's surface
by moisture that evaporate slowly. Mud
is particularly corrosive because it dries
slowly and holds moisture in contact
with the vehicle. Although the mud
appears to be dry, it can still retain mois
-
ture and promote corrosion. High tem
-
peratures can also accelerate corrosion
of parts that are not properly ventilated
so the moisture can be dispersed.
Keep your vehicle clean and free of mud
or accumulations of other materials. This
applies not only to the visible surfaces
but particularly to the underside of the
vehicle.
Maintenance

Appearance care
To help prevent corrosion
You can help prevent corrosion from
getting started by observing the follow
-
ing:
Keep your vehicle clean
The best way to prevent corrosion is to
keep your vehicle clean and free of cor
-
rosive materials. Attention to the under
-
side of the vehicle is particularly
important.
僅 If you live in a high-corrosion area -
where road salts are used, near the
ocean, areas with industrial pollution,
acid rain, etc., you should take extra
care to prevent corrosion. In winter,
hose off the underside of your vehicle
at least once a month and be sure to
clean the underside thoroughly when
winter is over.
僅 When cleaning underneath the vehi
-
cle, give particular attention to the
components under the fenders and
other areas that are hidden from view.
Do a thorough job; just dampening
the accumulated mud rather than
washing it away will accelerate corro
-
sion rather than prevent it. Water
under high pressure and steam are
particularly effective in removing
accumulated mud and corrosive
materials.
僅 When cleaning lower door panels,
rocker panels and frame members, be
sure that drain holes are kept open so
that moisture can escape and not be
trapped inside to accelerate corrosion.
Keep your garage dry
Don't park your vehicle in a damp,
poorly ventilated garage. This creates a
favorable environment for corrosion.
This is particularly true if you wash your
vehicle in the garage or drive it into the
garage when it is still wet or covered
with snow, ice or mud. Even a heated
garage can contribute to corrosion
unless it is well ventilated so moisture is
dispersed.
Keep paint and trim in good con
-
dition
Scratches or chips in the finish should be
covered with "touch-up" paint as soon as
possible to reduce the possibility of cor
-
rosion. If bare metal is showing through,
the attention of a qualified body and
paint shop is recommended.
Bird droppings are highly corrosive and
may damage painted surfaces in just a
few hours. Always remove bird drop
-
pings as soon as possible.
Don't neglect the interior
Moisture can collect under the floor
mats and carpeting and cause corrosion.
Check under the mats periodically to be
sure the carpeting is dry. Use particular
care if you carry fertilizers, cleaning
materials or chemicals in the vehicle.
These should be carried only in proper
containers and any spills or leaks should
be cleaned up, flushed with clean water
and thoroughly dried.
Interior care
Interior general precautions
NOTICE
Prevent chemicals such as perfume, cos
-
metic oil, sun cream, hand cleaner, and
air freshener from contacting the interior
parts because they may cause damage
or discoloration. If they do contact the

Maintenance Appearance care
interior parts, wipe them off immedi
-
ately. If necessary, use a mixture of
warm water and mild non-detergent
cleaner (test all cleaners on a concealed
area before use). Use proper car cleaner
to clean interior parts.
CAUTION
僅 Never allow water or other liquids to
come in contact with electrical/elec
-
tronic components inside the vehicle
as this may damage them.
僅 When cleaning leather products
(steering wheel, seats etc.), use neu
-
tral detergents or low alcohol content
solutions. If you use high alcohol con
-
tent solutions or acid/alkaline deter
-
gents, the color of the leather may
fade or the surface may get stripped
off.
Taking care of leather seats (if
equipped)
僅 Our car seats are upholstered with a
combination of artificial and genuine
leather. The genuine leather is made
from the outer skin of an animal,
which goes through a special process
to be available for use. Since it is a
natural substance, each part differs in
thickness or density. Also, wrinkles
could appear depending on the tem
-
perature and humidity.
僅 Vacuum the seat periodically to
remove dust and sand on the seat. It
will prevent abrasion or damage of
the leather and maintain its quality.
僅 Wipe the leather seat cover often with
dry or soft cloth.
僅 Sufficient use of a leather protective
may prevent abrasion of the cover
and helps maintain the color. Be sure
to read the instructions and consult a
specialist when using leather coating
or protective agents.
僅 Leather with bright colors is easily
contaminated and clear in appear
-
ance. Clean the seats frequently.
僅 Avoid wiping with wet cloth. It may
cause the surface to crack.
Cleaning the leather seats (if
equipped)
僅 Remove all contaminations instantly.
Refer to instructions below for
removal of each contaminant.
僅 Cosmetic products
- Apply cleansing cream on a cloth
and wipe the contaminated point.
Wipe off the cream with a wet cloth
and remove water with a dry cloth.
僅 Beverages
- Apply a small amount of neutral
detergent and wipe until contami
-
nations do not smear.
僅Oil
- Remove oil instantly with absorb
-
able cloth and wipe with stain
remover for leather only.
僅Chewing gum
- Harden the gum with ice and
remove gradually.
Fabric seat cover using precau
-
tions (if equipped)
Clean the fabric seats regularly with a
vacuum cleaner in consideration of fab
-
ric material characteristics. If they are
heavily soiled with beverage stains, etc.,
use a suitable interior cleaner. To pre
-
vent damage to seat covers, wipe off the
seat covers down to the seams with a
large wiping motion and moderate pres

Appearance care
sure using a soft sponge or microfiber
cloth.
Velcro closures on clothing or sharp
objects may cause snagging or
scratches on the surface of the seats.
Make sure not to rub such objects
against the surface.

Car interior surfaces
Remove dust and loose dirt from interior
surfaces with a whisk broom or a vac
-
uum cleaner. If necessary, clean interior
surfaces with a mixture of warm water
and mild non-detergent cleaner (test all
cleaners on a concealed area before
use).
Fabric
Remove dust and loose dirt from fabric
with a whisk broom or vacuum cleaner.
Clean with a mild soap solution recom
-

Remove fresh spots immediately with a
fabric spot cleaner. If fresh spots do not
receive immediate attention, the fabric
can be stained and its color can be
affected. Also, its fire-resistant proper
-
ties can be reduced if the material is not
properly maintained.
CAUTION
Using anything but recommended
cleaners and procedures may affect the
fabric's appearance and fire-resistant
properties.
Cleaning the lap/shoulder belt
webbing
Clean the belt webbing with any mild
soap solution recommended for clean

huga að gripið sem snj쎣hj쎣lbarðar veita
쌴 þurrum vegum kann að vera minna en
grip hj쎣lbarðanna sem upphaflega voru
settir upp 쌴 쎨kutækinu. Þ쏒 ættir að aka
varlega, jafnvel þegar vegurinn er auður.
