Electrochromic Mirror (ECM) (if equipped)
The electric rearview mirror automat-
ically controls the glare from the
headlights of the vehicles behind you
in nighttime or low light driving condi-
tions. The sensor mounted in the mir-
ror senses the light level around the
vehicle, and automatically controls
the headlight glare from the vehicles
behind you.
When the engine is running, the
glare is automatically controlled by
the sensor mounted in the rearview
mirror.
Whenever the shift lever is shifted
into reverse (R), the mirror will auto-
matically go to the brightest setting in
order to improve the drivers view
behind the vehicle.
To operate the electric rearview mir-
ror:
The mirror defaults to the ON posi-tion whenever the ignition switch is
turned on.

Retain the original transmitter for
future programming procedures (i.e.,
new vehicle purchase). It is also sug-
gested that upon the sale of the vehi-
cle, the programmed HomeLink
®but-
tons be erased for security purposes
(follow step 1 in the “Programming”
portion of this text).
Programming
Your vehicle may require the ignition
switch to be turned to the ACC posi-
tion for programming and/or opera-
tion of HomeLink
®. It is also recom-
mended that a new battery be
replaced in the hand-held transmitter
of the device being programmed to
HomeLink
®for quicker training and
accurate transmission of the radio-
frequency.
Follow these steps to train your
HomeLink
®mirror: 1. When programming the buttons
for the first time, press and hold
the left and center buttons ( ,
) simultaneously until the indicator
light begins to flash after approxi-
mately 20 seconds. (This proce-
dure erases the factory-set default
codes. Do not perform this step to
program additional hand-held
transmitters.)
WARNING
When programming theHomeLink®Wireless Control
System, you may be operating
a garage door or gate opera-
tor. Make sure that people and
objects are out of the way of
the moving door or gate to
prevent potential harm or
damage.
Do not use HomeLink® with any garage door opener that
lacks the safety stop and
reverse feature as required by
federal safety standards. (This
includes any garage door
opener model manufactured
before April 1, 1982.) A garage
door opener which cannot
detect an object, signaling the
door to stop and reverse,
does not meet current federal
safety standards. Using a
garage door opener without
these features increases risk
of serious injury or death. For
more information, call 1-800-
355-3515 or on the internet at
www.homelink
®.com.

select the right side mirror or the left
side mirror, then press a correspon-
ding point on the mirror adjustment
control to position the selected mirror
up, down, left or right.
After the adjustment, put the switch
into the neutral (center) position to
prevent inadvertent adjustment.
CAUTION
Do not scrape ice off the mirror
face; this may damage the sur-face of the glass. If ice shouldrestrict the movement of themirror, do not force the mirrorfor adjustment. To remove ice,use a deicer spray, or a spongeor soft cloth with very warmwater.

rearview mirrors while the vehi-
cle is moving. This could result

ignition switch is turned ON and goes
off in approximately 3 seconds if the
system is operating normally.

comes on while driving, or does not
come on when the ignition switch is
turned to the ON position, this indi-
cates that the ABS may have mal-
functioned.

braking system will still be opera-
tional, but without the assistance of
the anti-lock brake system. Electronic brake

3.Do not drive the vehicle if leaks arefound, the warning light remains on
or the brakes do not operate prop-
erly. Have the vehicle towed to any
authorized Kia dealer for a brake
system inspection and necessary
repairs.
Your vehicle is equipped with dual-
diagonal braking systems. This
means you still have braking on two
wheels even if one of the dual sys-
tems should fail. With only one of the
dual systems working, more than
normal pedal travel and greater
pedal pressure are required to stop
the vehicle. Also, the vehicle will not
stop in as short a distance with only
a portion of the brake system work-
ing. If the brakes fail while you are
driving, shift to a lower gear for addi-
tional engine braking and stop the
vehicle as soon as it is safe to do so.
To check bulb operation, check
whether the parking brake and brake
fluid warning light illuminates when
the ignition switch is in the ON posi-
tion.D150312AAM

ly the shift lever is in the 4th

ing light on is dangerous. If the
brake warning light remains on,
have the brakes checked and
repaired immediately by an
authorized Kia dealer.P
