Knowing your vehicle83Your vehicle is equipped with an elec-
tronic 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
ICU (Immobilizer Control Unit) in the
steering shaft.
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 ECU (Engine
Control Unit).
The ECU checks the signal 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 cylin-
der and turn it to the ON position.To activate the immobilizer sys-
tem:Turn the ignition key to the OFF position.
The immobilizer system activates auto-
matically. Without a valid ignition key for
your vehicle, the engine will not start.✽ ✽NOTICEWhen 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 keys
separate to avoid immobilizer malfunc-
tions.
Limp home (override) procedureWhen you turn the ignition key to the ON
position, if the IMMO indicator goes off
after blinking 5 times, your transponder
equipped in the ignition key is out of order.
You cannot start the engine without the
lime home procedure. To start the engine,
you have to input your password by using
the ignition switch.
The following procedure is how to input
your password of “2345” as an example.
1. Turn the ignition key to the ON position.
The IMMO indicator ( ) will blink 5
times and go off indicating the begin-
ning of the limp home procedure.
2. Turn the ignition key to the ACC posi- tion.
3. To enter the first digit (in this example “2”), turn the ignition key to the ON and
ACC position twice. Perform the same
procedure for the next digits between 3
seconds and 10 seconds (for example,
for “3”, turn the ignition ON and ACC 3
times).

Fixed rod antenna
(if equipped)Your car uses a fixed rod antenna to
receive both AM and FM broadcast sig-
nals.
This antenna is removable. To remove
the antenna, turn it counterclockwise. To
install the antenna, turn it clockwise.
Glass antenna (if equipped)When the radio power switch is turned on
while the ignition key is in either the “ON”
or “ACC ”position, your car will receive
both AM and FM broadcast signals
through the antenna in the rear window
glass.✽ ✽ NOTICE• Do not clean the inside of the rear
window glass with a cleaner or use a
scraper to remove the foreign deposits
as this may cause damage to the
antenna elements.
• Avoid adding metallic coating such as Ni, Cd, and so on. These can disturb
receiving AM and FM broadcast sig-
nals.

NOTICE• To assure proper operation of the unit,
keep the vehicle interior temperature
within a normal range by using the
vehicle's air conditioning or heating
system.
• When replacing the fuse, replace it with a fuse having the correct capaci-
ty.
• The preset station frequencies are all erased when the car battery is discon-
nected. Therefore, all data will have to
be set again if this should occur.
• Do not add any oil to the rotating parts. Keep magnets, screwdrivers
and other metallic objects away from
the tape mechanism and head.
• This equipment is designed to be used only in a 12 volt DC battery system
with negative ground.
• This unit is made of precision parts. Do not attempt to disassemble or
adjust any parts.
• When driving your vehicle, be sure to keep the volume of the unit set low
enough to allow you to hear sounds
coming from the outside.
• Do not expose this equipment (includ- ing the speakers and tape) to water or
excessive moisture.
✽ ✽ NOTICE• Do not insert anything like coins into
the player slot as damage to the unit
may occur.
• Do not place beverages close to the audio system. The playback mecha-
nism may be damaged if you spill
them.
• Do not strike or allow anything to impact the audio system, damage to
the system mechanisms could occur.

4Warning lights / audible indicators Checking operation All warning lights are checked by turning
the ignition switch ON (do not start the
engine). Any light that does not illuminate
should be checked by an authorized Kia
dealer.
After starting the engine, check to make
sure that all warning lights are off. If any
are still on, this indicates a situation that
needs attention. When releasing the
parking brake, the brake system warning
light should go off. The fuel warning light
will stay on if the fuel level is low.Anti-lock brake system
(ABS) warning light (if
equipped) This light illuminates if the key is turned
to ON and goes off in approximately 3
seconds if the system is operating nor-
mally.
If the light stays on, you may have a
problem with your ABS. Contact an
authorized Kia dealer as soon as possi-
ble.
Electronic brake force
distribution (EBD) sys-
tem warning
(if equipped)If ABS and BRAKE warning lights illumi-
nate at the same time while driving, your
vehicle has a problem with the ABS and
EBD system.
In this case, your ABS and regular brake
system may not work normally. Have the
vehicle checked by an authorized Kia
dealer as soon as possible.
Engine oil pressure
warning This warning light indicates the engine oil
pressure is low.
If the warning light illuminates while driv-
ing:
1. Drive safely to the side of the road and
stop.
2. With the engine off, check the engine oil level. If the level is low, add oil as
required.
If the warning light remains on after
adding oil or if oil is not available, call an
authorized Kia dealer.✽ ✽ NOTICEIf the engine is not stopped immediately,
severe damage could result.

4Air conditioning system opera-
tion tips  If the vehicle has been parked in direct
sunlight during hot weather, open the
windows for a short time to let the hot
air inside the vehicle escape.
 To help reduce moisture inside of win-
dows on rainy or humid days, decrease
the humidity inside the vehicle by oper-
ating the air conditioning system.
 During air conditioning system opera-
tion, you may occasionally notice a
slight change in engine speed as the
air conditioning compressor cycles.
This is a normal system operation
characteristic.
 Use the air conditioning system every
month if only for a few minutes to
ensure maximum system perform-
ance.
 When using the air conditioning sys-
tem, you may notice clear water drip-
ping (or even pudding) on the ground
under the passenger side of the vehi-
cle. This is a normal system operation
characteristic. 
Operating the air conditioning system
in the recirculated air position does
provide maximum cooling, however,
continual operation in this mode may
cause the air inside the vehicle to
become stale.
Checking the amount of air con-
ditioner refrigerant and compres-
sor lubricantWhen the amount of refrigerant is low,
the performance of the air conditioning is
reduced. Overfilling also has a bad influ-
ence on the air conditioning system.
Therefore, if abnormal operation is
found, have the system inspected by an
authorized Kia dealer.✽ ✽
NOTICEWhen the performance of the air condi-
tioning system is reduced it is important
that the correct type and amount of oil
and refrigerant is used. Otherwise, dam-
age to the compressor and abnormal
system operation may occur.
CAUTION
The air conditioning system should
be serviced by an authorized Kiadealer. Improper service may cause serious injury to the person per-forming the service.

✽ ✽
NOTICEWhen using the air conditioning system,
monitor the temperature gauge closely
while driving up hills or in heavy traffic
when outside temperatures are high. Air
conditioning system operation may
cause engine overheating. Continue to
use the blower fan but turn the air con-
ditioning system off if the temperature
gauge indicates engine overheating.
