This system is designed to provide
protection from unauthorized entry
into the vehicle. This system is oper-
ated in three stages: the first is the
“Armed” stage, the second is the
“Theft-alarm” stage, and the third is
the “Disarmed” stage. If triggered,
the system provides an audible
alarm with blinking of the hazard
warning lights.

Armed stage

Park the vehicle and stop the engine.
Arm the system as described below.
1. Turn off the engine.
2. Make sure that all doors (and

trunk) and engine hood are closed
and latched.

3. Lock the doors by depressing the

door lock button on the smart key.

After completion of the steps above,
the hazard warning lights will blink
(for smart key, the chime also
sounds) once to indicate that the
system is armed.
If any door (or trunk) or engine hood
remains open, the hazard warning
lights and the chime will not operate
and the theft-alarm will not arm. If all
doors and trunk and engine hood are
closed after the lock button is
pressed, the hazard warning lights
blink once.

The system can also be armed by
locking the doors with the key from
the front doors; however, the hazard
warning lights will not blink using this
method.

✽

✽

NOTICE

The theft-alarm system can be deac-
tivated by an authorized Kia dealer.
If you want this feature, consult an

Do not arm the system until all
passengers have left the vehicle. If
the system is armed while a pas-
senger(s) remains in the vehicle,
the alarm may be activated when
the remaining passenger(s) leave
the vehicle. If any door (or trunk)
or engine hood is opened within
30 seconds after the system
enters the armed stage, the sys-
tem is disarmed to prevent an
unnecessary alarm.

Features of your vehicle

Power Trunk Non-Opening or
Closing Conditions:

• The power trunk will not open or

close automatically, when the vehi-
cle is moving more than 1.8 mph (3
km/h).

• The power trunk can be operated

when the engine is not running.
However, the power trunk opera-
tion consumes large amounts of
vehicle electric power. To prevent
the battery from draining, do not
operate it excessively (e.g., more
than approximately 10 times
repeatedly).

• Do not modify or repair any part of

the power trunk by yourself. This
must be done by an authorized Kia
dealer.

• Before jacking up the vehicle to

change a tire or repair the vehicle,
open the power trunk. Do not oper-
ate the power trunk when the vehi-
cle is raised or this could cause the
power trunk to operate improperly.

• If there are obstacles such as

snow on the power trunk, it may
not open automatically.

After

removing the obstacle, try to open
it again.

Automatic stop and Reverse

If, during power opening or closing,
the trunk is blocked by an object or
part of someone’s body, the power
trunk will detect the resistance and it
will stop movement or move to the
full open position to allow the object
to be cleared.
However, if an object is thin or soft,
or the trunk is near the latched posi-
tion, the automatic stop and reversal
may not detect the resistance and
the closing operation will continue. If
the power trunk is forced by a strong
impact, the automatic stop and rever-
sal may operate.

OYG046018

Features of your vehicle

If the automatic stop and reverse fea-
ture operates more than twice during
one opening or closing operation, the
power trunk may stop at that posi-
tion.
If this occurs, close the trunk manu-
ally and operate the trunk automati-
cally again.

To Reset the Power Trunk

If the battery has been discharged or
disconnected, or if the related fuse
has been replaced or disconnected,
reset the power trunk as follows:
1. Move the shift lever to the P (Park)

position.

2. Close the trunk manually.
If the power trunk doesn't work prop-
erly after performing the above pro-
cedure, have the system checked by
an authorized Kia dealer.

Trunk Lid Control Button

When the trunk lid control button is
UNLOCK, the power trunk can be
controlled with the power trunk main
control button, power trunk open,
close button, and the smart key.
When this trunk lid control button is

trolled using the mechanical key of
the smart key only.

WARNING

To prevent serious injury and
damage take the following pre-
cautions when operating the
power trunk:
- Keep all faces, hands, arms,

body parts and other objects
away from the path of the
power trunk.

- Do not intentionally place any

body parts or objects in the
path of the power trunk to
make sure the automatic stop
and reversal operates.

tion, the trunk will be electrically
moved to the fully latched position.

by moving the lever in the direction of
the arrow and pushing the trunk
open.

WARNING

aware of the location of the
Emergency Trunk Safety Release
lever in this vehicle and how to
open the trunk in case you are
accidentally locked in the trunk.

• Your vehicle should be kept locked

and the Smart Key should be kept
out of the reach of children.

cies only.

WARNING

NEVER allow anyone to occupy
the trunk of the vehicle at any
time. If the trunk is partially or
totally latched and the person is
unable to get out, serious injury
or death could occur due to lack
of ventilation, exhaust fumes
and rapid heat build-up, or
because of exposure to cold
weather conditions. The trunk is
also a highly dangerous loca-
tion in the event of a crash
because it is not a protected
occupant space but is a part of
the vehicle’s crush zone.

WARNING

Make sure that there are no peo-
ple or objects in the path of the
power trunk (or smart trunk)
prior to use. Serious injury,
damage to the vehicle or dam-
age to surrounding objects may
