possible damage to the door or the fuel
filler lid.
If the power sliding door is not closed
and latched completely after power
closing operation, the chime sounds 3
times. Open and close the door again.
If the power sliding door is operated while the door is in partially opened
position (less than 300 mm/12 in.), the
door is automatically opened fully.
If the power sliding door is operated while the door is in half-opened posi-
tion (more than 300 mm/12 in.), the
door is automatically closed complete-
ly. If the power sliding door is operated
again while the door is closing, the

WARNING
To avoid injury from sharp edges, it
is recommended that protective
gloves be worn if there is a need to
open the fuel filler door manually.
WARNING - Refueling
If pressurized fuel sprays out, it can
cover your clothes or skin and thus
subject you to the risk of fire and
burns. Always remove the fuel cap
carefully and slowly. If the cap is
venting fuel or if you hear a hissing
sound, wait until the condition
stops before completely removing
the cap.

WARNING - Refueling dan-
gers
Automotive fuels are flammable
materials. When refueling, please
note the following guidelines care-
fully. Failure to follow these guide-
lines may result in severe personal
injury, severe burns or death by fire
or explosion.
Before refueling note the locationof the Emergency Gasoline Shut-
Off, if available, at the gas station
facility.
Before touching the fuel nozzle, you should eliminate potentially
dangerous static electricity dis-
charge by touching another metal
part of the vehicle, a safe distance
away from the fuel filler neck, noz-
zle, or other gas source.
(Continued)
(Continued)
Do not get back into a vehicleonce you have begun refueling
since you can generate static
electricity by touching, rubbing or
sliding against any item or fabric
(polyester, satin, nylon, etc.)
capable of producing static elec-
tricity. Static electricity discharge
can ignite fuel vapors resulting in
rapid burning. If you must re-
enter the vehicle, you should
once again eliminate potentially
dangerous static electricity dis-
charge by touching a metal part
of the vehicle, away from the fuel
filler neck, nozzle or other gaso-
line source.
When using a portable fuel con- tainer be sure to place the con-
tainer on the ground prior to refu-
eling. Static electricity discharge
from the container can ignite fuel
vapors causing a fire. Once refu-
eling has begun, contact with the
vehicle should be maintained
until the filling is complete.
(Continued)(Continued)Use only portable plastic fuel
containers designed to carry and
store gasoline.
Do not use cellular phones while refueling. Electric current and/or
electronic interference from cellu-
lar phones can potentially ignite
fuel vapors causing a fire.
When refueling, always shut the engine off. Sparks produced by
electrical components related to
the engine can ignite fuel vapors
causing a fire. Once refueling is
complete, check to make sure the
filler cap and filler door are
securely closed, before starting
the engine.
DO NOT use matches or a lighter and DO NOT SMOKE or leave a lit
cigarette in your vehicle while at a
gas station especially during
refueling. Automotive fuel is high-
ly flammable and can, when ignit-
ed, result in fire.

When fuel filler lid does not open
with the release button
If the fuel filler lid does not open using
the remote fuel filler lid release, you can
open it manually. Unsnap and remove the
panel in the cargo area. Pull the handle
outward.
(Continued)
If a fire breaks out during refuel-
ing, leave the vicinity of the vehi-
cle, and immediately contact the
manager of the gas station and
then contact the local fire depart-
ment or 911. Follow any safety
instructions they provide.CAUTION
Make sure to refuel your vehicle according to the “Fuel require-ments” suggested in section 1.
Check to make sure the fuel filler cap is securely closed after refu-eling. A loose fuel filler cap maycause the "Check Engine"(Malfunction Indicator) light in theinstrument panel to illuminateunnecessarily.
If the fuel filler cap requires replacement, use only a genuineKia cap or the equivalent speci-fied for your vehicle. An incorrect fuel filler cap can result in a seri-ous malfunction of the fuel sys-tem or emission control system.
Do not spill fuel on the exterior surfaces of the vehicle. Any typeof fuel spilled on painted surfacesmay damage the paint.
If the fuel filler lid will not open in cold weather because the areaaround it is frozen, push or lightlytap the lid.

Engine temperature gauge
This gauge shows the temperature of the
engine coolant when the ignition switch
is ON.
Do not continue driving with an overheat-
ed engine. If your vehicle overheats, refer
to “Overheating” in the Index.
Fuel gauge
The fuel gauge indicates the approxi-
mate amount of fuel remaining in the fuel
tank.
Fuel tank capacity : 80 liters (21 US gallons)
The fuel gauge is supplemented by a low
fuel warning light, which will illuminate
when the fuel tank is nearly empty.

WARNING- Fuel gauge
Running out of fuel can expose
vehicle occupants to danger.
You must stop and obtain addition-
al fuel as soon as possible after the
warning light comes on or when the
gauge indicator comes close to the
E level.
CAUTION
Avoid driving with a very low fuellevel. If you run out of fuel, it couldcase the engine to misfire and result in excessive loading of thecatalytic converter.
CAUTION
If the gauge pointer moves beyond the normal range area toward the“H” position, it indicates overheat- ing that may damage the engine.

The trip computer is a microcomputer-
controlled driver information system that
displays information related to driving,
including compass, distance to empty,
driving time, average fuel consumption
and outside temperature on the display
when the ignition switch is in ON posi-
tion. All stored driving information is reset
if the battery is disconnected.
Mode selection
The compass is always displayed until
the display is turned off.
Push the MODE button to select distance
to empty, driving time, average fuel con-
sumption and outside temperature func-
tions.
Compass (if equipped)
The vehicle compass displays the direc-
tion the vehicle is heading.

Features of your vehicle
Distance to empty (“RANGE”
shown on display)
This mode indicates the estimated dis-
tance to empty based on the current fuel
in the fuel tank and the amount of fuel
delivered to the engine. When the
remaining distance is below 50 km (30
miles), a blinking “----” symbol will be dis-
played.
The meter’s working range is from 50 to
1500 km (30 to 1500 miles).
✽ ✽NOTICE
• If the vehicle is not on level ground or
the battery power has been interrupt-
ed, the “Distance to empty” function
may not operate correctly.
The trip computer may not register
additional fuel if less than 6 liters (1.6
gallons) of fuel are added to the vehi-
cle.
• The fuel consumption and distance to empty values may vary significantly
based on driving conditions, driving
habits, and condition of the vehicle.
• The distance to empty value is an esti- mate of the available driving distance.
This value may differ from the actual
driving distance available.
Driving time (“ET” shown on dis-
play)
This mode indicates the total time trav-
eled since the last driving time reset.
Even if the vehicle is not in motion, the
driving time keeps going while the engine
is running.
The meter’s working range is from
0:00~99:59.
Pressing the RESET button for less than
4 seconds, when the driving time is being
displayed, clears the driving time to zero.
