Driving your vehicle

Be sure the exhaust system
does not leak.

The exhaust system should be
checked whenever the vehicle is
raised to change the oil or for any
other purpose. If you hear a change
in the sound of the exhaust or if you
drive over something that strikes the
underneath side of the vehicle, have
the exhaust system checked as soon
as possible by an authorized Kia
dealer.

WARNING

- Engine

exhaust

Do not inhale exhaust fumes or
leave your engine running in an
enclosed area for a prolonged
time. Exhaust fumes contain
carbon monoxide, a colorless,
odorless gas that can cause
unconsciousness and death by
asphyxiation.

WARNING

- Open tailgate

Do not drive with the tailgate
open. Poisonous exhaust gases
can enter the passenger com-
partment. If you must drive with
the tailgate open proceed as fol-
lows:
1. Close all windows.
2. Open side vents.
3. Set the air intake control at

“Fresh”, the air flow control
at “Floor” or “Face” and the
fan at the highest speed.

CALIFORNIA PROPO-

SITION 65 WARNING

Engine exhaust and a wide vari-
ety of automobile components
and parts, including compo-
nents found in the interior fur-
nishings in a vehicle, contain or
emit chemicals known to the
State of California to cause can-
cer and birth defects and repro-
ductive harm. In addition, cer-
tain fluids contained in vehicles
and certain products of compo-
nent wear contain or emit chem-
icals known to the State of
California to cause cancer and
birth defects or other reproduc-
tive harm.

Driving your vehicle

Before entering vehicle

• Be sure that all windows, outside

mirror(s), and outside lights are
clean.

• Check the condition of the tires.
• Check under the vehicle for any

sign of leaks.

• Be sure there are no obstacles

behind you if you intend to back up.

Necessary inspections

Fluid levels, such as engine oil,
engine coolant, brake fluid, and
washer fluid should be checked on a
regular basis, at the exact interval
depending on the fluid. Further
details are provided in chapter 8,
“Maintenance”.

Before starting

• Close and lock all doors.
• Position the seat so that all con-

trols are easily reached.

• Buckle your seat belt.
• Adjust the inside and outside

rearview mirrors.

• Be sure that all lights work.
• Check all gauges.
• Check the operation of warning

lights when the ignition switch is
turned to the ON position.

• Release the parking brake and

make sure the brake warning light
goes out.

For safe operation, be sure you are
familiar with your vehicle and its
equipment.

BEFORE DRIVING

WARNING

Driving while distracted can
result in a loss of vehicle con-
trol, that may lead to an acci-
dent, severe personal injury,
and death. The driver’s primary
responsibility is in the safe and
legal operation of a vehicle, and
use of any handheld devices,
other equipment, or vehicle sys-
tems which take the driver’s
eyes, attention and focus away
from the safe operation of a
vehicle or which are not permis-
sible by law should never be
used during operation of the
vehicle.

Driving your vehicle

WARNING

- Check sur-

roundings

Always check the surrounding
areas near your vehicle for peo-
ple, especially children, before
putting a vehicle into D (Drive)
or R (Reverse).

WARNING

- Fire risk

When you intend to park or stop
the vehicle with the engine on,
be careful not to depress the
accelerator pedal for a long
period of time. It may overheat
the engine or exhaust system
and cause fire.

WARNING

- Loose

objects

Securely store items in your
vehicle. When you make a sud-
den stop or turn the steering
wheel rapidly, loose objects
may drop on the floor and it
could interfere with the opera-
tion of the foot pedals, possibly
causing an accident.

WARNING

- Driving while

intoxicated

Do not drive while intoxicated.
Drinking and driving is danger-
ous. Even a small amount of
alcohol will affect your reflexes,
perceptions and judgment.
Driving while under the influ-
ence of drugs is as dangerous
as or more dangerous than driv-
ing drunk.

Driving your vehicle

Vehicle

To avoid unexpected or sudden
vehicle movement, never leave
your vehicle if the transmission
is not locked in the P (Park) posi-
tion and the parking brake is
fully engaged. Before leaving the
driver's seat, always make sure
the shift lever is engaged in P
(Park), set the parking brake fully
and shut the engine off.

CAUTION

If the driver takes foot off the
clutch pedal of a manual
transaxle vehicle before the
engine is fully started, the
engine may not start.
Make sure to fully depress the
clutch pedal and brake pedal to
start the engine.

Driving your vehicle

up while the vehicle remains sta-
tionary.
Start driving at moderate engine
speeds. (Steep accelerating and
decelerating should be avoided.)

• Even if the smart key is in the vehi-

cle, if it is far away from you, the
engine may not start.

• When the ENGINE START/STOP

button is in the ACC position or
above, if any door is opened, the
system checks for the smart key. If
the smart key is not in the vehicle,
a message "key is not in the vehi-
cle" will appear on the LCD display.
And if all doors are closed, the
chime will sound for 5 seconds. The
indicator or warning will turn off
while the vehicle is moving. Always
have the smart key with you.

Stopping manual transaxle vehicles

1. After safely parking the vehicle,

press the clutch pedal and brake
pedal at the same time.

2. While depressing the clutch pedal

and brake pedal at the same time,
shift the transaxle lever to ‘N’.

CAUTION

- Starter

If the engine stalls while the
vehicle is in motion, do not
attempt to move the shift lever
to the P (Park) position. If the
traffic and road conditions per-
mit, you may put the shift lever
in the N (Neutral) position while
the vehicle is still moving and
press the ENGINE START/STOP
button in an attempt to restart
the engine.

Driving your vehicle

• If the battery is weak or the smart

key does not work correctly, you
can start the engine by pressing
the engine start/stop button with
the smart key.
The side with the lock button
should contact the engine
start/stop button directly.
When you press the engine
start/stop button directly with the
smart key, the smart key should
contact the button at a right angle.

• When the stop lamp fuse is blown,

you can't start the engine normally.
Replace the fuse with a new one. If
it is not possible, you can start the
engine by pressing the ENGINE
START/STOP button for 10 sec-
onds while it is in the ACC posi-
tion. The engine can start without
depressing the brake pedal. But for
your safety always depress the
brake pedal before starting the
engine.

Do not press the ENGINE START/
STOP button for more than 10 sec-
onds except when the stop lamp fuse
is blown.
