indicate that the brake fluid level in
the reservoir is low.
If the warning light remains on:

2. With the engine stopped, check the brake fluid level immediately
and add fluid as required. Then
check all brake components for
fluid leaks.
3. Do not drive the vehicle if leaks are found, the warning light
remains on or the brakes do not
operate properly. Have it towed to
any Authorized Kia Dealer for a
brake system inspection and nec-
essary repairs. To check bulb operation, check

Safety chains You should always attach chains
between your vehicle and your trail-
er. 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 manufactur-
er or by the trailer manufacturer.
Follow the manufacturer’s recom-
mendation for attaching safety
chains. Always leave just enough
slack so you can turn with your trail-
er. And, never allow safety chains to
drag on the ground.
Trailer brakes If your trailer weighs more than 1000
lbs. (453 kg) loaded, then it needs its
own brakes and they must be ade-
quate. Be sure to read and follow the
instructions for the trailer brakes so
you’ll be able to install, adjust and
maintain them properly.
 Don’t tap into your vehicle's brake
system.
Driving with a trailer Towing a trailer requires a certain
amount of experience. Before setting
out for the open road, you must get
to know your trailer. Acquaint your-
self with the feel of handling and
braking with the added weight of the
trailer. And always keep in mind that
the vehicle you are driving is now a
good deal longer and not nearly so
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 be
sure the brakes are working. This lets
you check your electrical connection
at the same time.
During your trip, check occasionally
to be sure that the load is secure,
and that the lights and any trailer
brakes are still working.
WARNING
Do not use a trailer with its own
brakes unless you are absolute-
ly certain that you have properly
set up the brake system. This is
not a task for amateurs. Use an
experienced, competent trailer
shop for this work.

HOMELINK® WIRELESS CONTROL SYSTEM (IF EQUIPPED)Your new mirror comes with an inte-
grated HomeLink Universal
Transceiver, which allows you to pro-
gram the mirror to activate your
garage door(s), estate gate, home
lighting, etc. The mirror actually
learns the codes from your various
existing transmitters.
CAUTION
 When programming theHomeLink® Wireless ControlSystem, you may be operatinga garage door or gate opera-tor. Make sure that people andobjects are out of the way ofthe moving door or gate toprevent potential harm ordamage.
 Do not use HomeLink with any garage door opener that lacksthe safety stop and reversefeature as required by federalsafety standards. (Thisincludes any garage dooropener model manufacturedbefore April 1, 1982.) A garagedoor opener which cannotdetect an object, signaling thedoor to stop and reverse, doesnot meet current federal safe-ty standards. Using a garagedoor opener without thesefeatures increases risk of seri-ous injury or death. For moreinformation, call 1-800-355-3515 or on the internet atwww.homelink.com.
(Continued)
(Continued) Retain the original transmitter for future programming proce-dures (i.e., new vehicle pur-chase). It is also suggestedthat upon the sale of the vehi-cle, the programmedHomeLink buttons be erasedfor security purposes (followstep 1 in the “Programming”portion of this text).

6. Return to the vehicle and firmly
press and release the pro-
grammed HomeLink button up to
three times. The rolling code
equipped device should now rec-
ognize the HomeLink signal and
activate when the HomeLink but-
ton is pressed. The remaining two
buttons may now be programmed
if this has not previously been
done. Refer to the “Programming”
portion of this text.
Operating HomeLink To operate, simply press the pro-
grammed HomeLink button.
Activation will now occur for the
trained product (garage door, securi-
ty system, entry door lock, estate
gate, or home or office lighting). For
convenience, the hand-held trans-
mitter of the device may also be used
at any time. The HomeLink Wireless
Controls System (once programmed)
or the original hand-held transmitter
may be used to activate the device
(e.g. garage door, entry door lock,
etc.). In the event that there are still
programming difficulties, contact
HomeLink at 1-800-355-3515 or on
the internet at www.homelink.com.
Erasing programmed
HomeLink buttonsTo erase the three programmed but-
tons (individual buttons cannot be
erased):
 Press and hold the left and centerbuttons simultaniously, until the
indicator light begins to flash
(approximately 20 seconds).
Release both buttons. Do not hold
for longer than 30 seconds.
HomeLink is now in the train (or
learning) mode and can be pro-
grammed at any time.
