KEYSThe key number is stamped into the plate
attached to the key set. If you should lose
your keys, this number will enable an
Authorized Kia Dealer to duplicate the
keys easily. Remove the plate and store it
in a safe place. Also, record the number
and keep it in a safe and handy place, but
not in the vehicle.Your vehicle has two master keys and a
sub key. The master key will open all
locks on your vehicle.
The sub key will only function in the
ignition and the door locks.Leaving your sub key with a parking
attendant will ensure that your vehicle’s
trunk, trunk lid release, glove box
compartment and rear trunk access may
not be unlocked in your absence.

WARNING - Ignition Key
Leaving children unattended in
a vehicle with the ignition key is
dangerous even if the key is not
in the ignition. Children copy
adults and they could place the
key in the ignition. The ignition
key would enable children to
operate power windows or
other controls, or even make
the vehicle move which could
result in serious bodily injury or
even death. Never leave the
keys in your vehicle with
unsupervised children.
CAUTION
Use only Kia original parts for the
ignition key in your vehicle. If an
aftermarket key is used, the
ignition switch may not return to
ON after START. If this happens,
the starter will continue to operate
causing damage to the starter
motor and possible fire due to
excessive current in the wiring.

3) Sub key
Similar to the master key, this key
will only function in the ignition and
the door locks, but it will not operate
the trunk and the glove box.
One side of the key has the Kia logo
and the other side has the “S”
symbol.
IMMOBILIZER SYSTEMYour vehicle is equipped with an
electronic engine immobilizer system to
reduce the risk of unauthorized vehicle
use.
Your immobilizer system is comprised
of a small transponder in the ignition
key, and antenna coil in the key cylinder
and IU (Immobilizer Unit) in the
instrument panel.
With this system, whenever you insert
your ignition key into the ignition switch
and turn it to ON, the antenna coil in the
ignition switch receives a signal from the
transponder in the ignition key and then
sends the signal to the IU (Immobilizer
Unit).
The IU (Immobilizer Unit) checks the
signal and determines whether the
ignition key is valid.
If the key is determined to be valid, the
engine will start.
If the key is determined to be invalid, the
engine will not start.To deactivate the immobilizer system:
Insert the ignition key into the key
cylinder and turn it to the ON position.
To activate the immobilizer system:
Turn the ignition key to the OFF
position. The immobilizer system
activates automatically. Without a valid
ignition key for your vehicle, the engine
will not start.

CAUTION
Don’t lose your ID key or forget the
password.
Always keep your ID key in a place
where you remember and record
your password. If you don’t have
both the password and ID key,
consult your authorized Kia dealer.
✻
NOTICE
When starting the engine, do not
use the key with other immobilizer
keys around. Otherwise the engine
may not start or may stop soon
after it starts. Keep each key
separately not to have any
malfunction after you receive your
new vehicle.

KNOWING YOUR VEHICLE
3-44AIR BAG SYSTEM
COMPONENTSThe main components of your vehicle’s
SRS are:
• One air bag in the steering wheel for
the driver, and another in the
dashboard for the front passenger.
• A diagnostic system that continually
monitors system operation.
• An indicator light to warn you of a
possible problem with the system.
• Emergency power backup in case
your car’s electrical system is
disconnected in a crash.To indicate that your vehicle is equipped
with air bags, the air bag covers on the
steering wheel and on the dashboard are
marked with “SRS AIR BAG.”
HOW THE AIR BAG SYSTEM
WORKSThe driver’s air bag is stored in the
center of the steering wheel. The
passenger side air bag is stored in the
front instrument panel above the glove
box.
If you ever have a severe frontal
collision, your air bags will instantly
inflate to help protect you from serious
physical injury.
There is no single vehicle speed at which
the air bags will inflate. Generally, air
bags are designed to inflate in severe
frontal collisions. The air bag
Supplemental Restraint System (SRS)
reacts to the severity of a collision and its
direction. These two factors determine
whether the sensors send out an
electronic deployment or inflation signal.
Whether the air bags will inflate depends
on a number of factors including vehicle
speed, angle of impact and the density
and stiffness of the vehicles or objects
that your vehicle hits in the collision.
