WARNING
• Always buckle-up! In a collision, an
unbelted occupant is significantly
more likely to be seriously injured
or killed than a properly belted oc‐
cupant.
• Avoid high speeds when cornering
or turning.
• Do not make quick steering wheel
movements, such as sharp lane
changes or fast, sharp turns.
• The risk of rollover is greatly in‐
creased if you lose control of your
vehicle at highway speeds.
(Continued)
(Continued)
• Loss of control often occurs if two
or more wheels drop off the road‐
way and the driver over-steers to
reenter the roadway.
• In the event your vehicle leaves
the roadway, do not steer sharply.
Instead, slow down before pulling
back into the travel lanes.
• Never exceed posted speed limits.
WARNING
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 ve‐
hicle. During the rocking operation
the vehicle may suddenly move for‐
ward of backward as it becomes un‐
stuck, causing injury or damage to
nearby people or objects.

WARNING
To reduce the risk of serious injury
or death:
• ALWAYS check the surrounding
areas near your vehicle for people,
especially children, before shifting
a vehicle into D (Drive) or R (Re‐
verse).
• Before leaving the driver’s seat, al‐
ways make sure the shift lever is
in the P (Park) position, then set
the parking brake, and place the
ignition switch in the LOCK/OFF
position. Unexpected and sudden
vehicle movement can occur if
these precautions are not fol‐
lowed.
• Do not use engine braking (shifting
from a high gear to lower gear)
rapidly on slippery roads. The vehi‐
cle may slip causing an accident.

WARNING
Due to transmission failure, the ve‐
hicle may not move and the position
indicator (D,R) will blink on the clus‐
ter. In this case, have the system
(Continued)
(Continued)
checked by a professional workshop.
Kia recommends to visit an author‐
ized Kia dealer/service partner.
CAUTION
• To hold the vehicle on a hill use the
foot brake or the parking brake. If
the vehicle is held by applying the
accelerator pedal on a hill the
clutch and transmission will be
overheated resulting in damage.
At this time, a warning message
( Steep grade! Press brake pedal )
will appear on the LCD display and
you may feel a vibration.
• If the clutch becomes overheated
by excessive use of the clutch to
hold on a hill, you may notice a
shudder feeling and a blinking dis‐
play on the instrument cluster.
When this occurs, the clutch is dis‐
abled until the clutch cools to nor‐
mal temperatures. If this occurs,
pull over to a safe location, shift
into P (Park) and apply the foot
brake for a few minutes.
(Continued)
Drivinþ your vühiclü
6-32
(Continued)
• If the LCD warning is active, the
foot brake must be applied.
• Ignoring the warnings can lead to
damage to the transmission.
• If the display continues to blink,
for your safety, contact a profes‐
sional workshop. Kia recommends
to visit an authorized Kia dealer/
service partner.
(Continued)
(Continued)
• Under certain conditions such as
repeated launch on steep grades,
the clutch in the transmission
could overheat. When the clutch is
overheated, the safe protection
mode engages.
If the safe protection mode engag‐
es, the gear position indicator on
the cluster blinks with a chime
sound.
At this time, a warning message
( Transmission temp. is high! Stop
safely , Trans Cooling. Remain
parked for 00 min. ) will appear on
the LCD display and driving may
not be smooth.
If you ignore this warning, the
driving condition may become
worse. To return the normal driv‐
ing condition, stop the vehicle and
apply the foot brake for a few mi‐
nutes before driving off.
(Continued)
(Continued)
• Repetitive kick downs may lead to
overheating of the transmission.
This will lead to change in the vehi‐
cle speed shift pattern, and illumi‐
nate some warning message.
To return the normal driving condi‐
tion, refrain from kick down speed
changes. When the warning mes‐
sage illuminates, park the vehicle
at a safe location.
• Gear shifts may be more noticea‐
ble than a conventional automatic
transmission. This is a normal
characteristic of this type of dual
clutch transmission.
• During the first 1,500 km
(1,000 miles), you may feel that
the vehicle may not be smooth
when accelerating at low speed.
During this break-in period, the
shift quality and performance of
your new vehicle is continuously
optimized.
• Always come to a complete stop
before shifting into D (Drive) or R
(Reverse).
• Do not put the shift lever in N
(Neutral) while driving.

WARNING
Do not shift into gear unless your

Shifting into gear when the engine is
running at high speed can cause the

could lose control of the vehicle and
hit people or objects.

WARNING
n Brakes
(Continued)
(Continued)
• Do not drive with your foot resting
on the brake pedal. This will create
abnormal high brake tempera‐
tures, excessive brake lining and
pad wear, and increased stopping
distances.
• When descending a long or steep
hill, shift to a lower gear and avoid
continuous application of the
brakes. Continuous brake applica‐
tion will cause the brakes to over‐
heat and could result in a tempo‐
rary loss of braking performance.
• Wet brakes may impair the vehi‐
cle’s ability to safely slow down;
the vehicle may also pull to one
side when the brakes are applied.
Applying the brakes lightly will in‐
dicate whether they have been af‐
fected in this way. Always test
your brakes in this fashion after
driving through deep water.
To dry the brakes, apply them
lightly while maintaining a safe
forward speed until brake per‐
formance returns to normal.
(Continued)
(Continued)
• Always, confirm the position of
the brake and accelerator pedal
before driving. If you don't check
the position of the accelerator and
brake pedal before driving, you
may depress the accelerator in‐
stead of the brake pedal. It may
cause a serious accident.
In the event of brake failure
Iý sürvicü braküs ýail to opüratü whilü
thü vühiclü is in motion, you can makü

WARNING
n Parking brake
Applying the parking brake while the
vehicle is moving at normal speeds
can cause a sudden loss of control of
the vehicle. If you must use the
parking brake to stop the vehicle,
use great caution in applying the
brake.

• To avoid costly brake repairs, do
not continue to drive with worn
brake pads.
• Always replace the front or rear
brake pads as pairs.
WARNING
n Brake wear
(Continued)
(Continued)
This brake wear warning sound
means your vehicle needs service. If
you ignore this audible warning, you
will eventually lose braking perform‐
ance, which could lead to a serious
accident.

CAUTION
• Driving with the parking brake ap‐
plied will cause excessive brake
pad (or lining) and brake rotor
wear.
• Do not operate the parking brake
while the vehicle is moving except
in an emergency situation. It could
damage the vehicle system and
make endanger driving safety.
Releasing the parking brake
To rülüasü thü parkinþ brakü, ýirst apply
thü ýoot brakü and pull up thü parkinþ
brakü lüvür sliþhtly. Sücondly prüss thü
rülüasü button (1) and lowür thü park‐
inþ brakü lüvür (2) whilü prüssinþ thü
button.
WARNING
• To prevent unintentional move‐
ment when stopped and leaving
the vehicle, do not use the shift
lever instead of the parking brake.
Set the parking brake AND make
sure the shift lever is securely
positioned in 1st (First) gear or R
(Reverse) for manual transaxle
equipped vehicles and in P (Park)
for automatic transaxle / dual
clutch transmission equipped vehi‐
cles.
• Never allow anyone who is unfa‐
miliar with the vehicle to touch the
parking brake. If the parking brake
is released unintentionally, serious
injury may occur.
• All vehicles should always have the
parking brake fully engaged when
parking to avoid inadvertent
movement of the vehicle which
can injure occupants or pedes‐
trians.
