Smart key precautions
If you lose your smart key, you willnot be able to start the engine.
Towing the vehicle to an authorized
dealer may be necessary.
A maximum of 2 smart keys can be registered to a single vehicle. If a
smart key is lost, take the vehicle
and remaining key to your author-
ized Kia dealer for reprogramming.
This will not allow the lost key from
starting the vehicle and will protect
from potential theft.
The smart key will not work if any of following occurs:
- If the vehicle key is close to aradio transmitter such as a radio
station it can interfere with normal
operation of the smart key sys-
tem
- The smart key near a mobile two- way radio system or a cellular
phone.
- Another vehicle’s smart key is being operated close to your
vehicle.
(Continued)(Continued)
When the smart key does not work
correctly, open and close the door
with the mechanical key. If you
have a problem with the smart key,
contact an authorized Kia dealer.
If the smart key is in close proximi- ty to your cell phone or smart
phone, the signal from the smart
key could be blocked by normal
operation of your cell phone or
smart phone. This is especially
important when the phone is active
such as making calls, receiving
calls, text messaging, and/or send-
ing/receiving emails. Pleacing the
Smart Key and cell phone in close
proximity can disrupt the signals of
the Smart Key This device complies with Part 15
of the FCC rules.
Operation is subject to the following
two conditions:
1.This device may not cause harmful
interference, and
2.This device must accept any inter- ference received, including inter-
ference that may cause undesired
operation.

expressly approved by the party
responsible for compliance could
void the user’s authority to operate
the equipment. If the keyless entry
system is inoperative due to changes
or modifications not expressly
approved by the party responsible
for compliance, it will not be cov-
ered by your manufacturer’s vehicle
warranty.
CAUTION- Transmitter

Other vehicles or objects may be blocking the signal.
The weather is extremely cold.
The transmitter (or smart key) is close to a radio transmitter such as
a radio station or an airport which
can interfere with normal operation
of the transmitter.
When the transmitter (or smart key)
does not work properly, open and
close the door with the ignition key. If
you have a problem with the trans-
mitter (or smart key), contact an
authorized Kia dealer. (Continued)(Continued)

important when the phone is active
such as making calls, receiving
calls, text messaging, and/or send-
ing/receiving emails. Avoid placing
the transmitter and your cell phone
or smart phone in the same pants
or jacket pocket and maintain ade-

How vehicle audio works
AM and FM radio signals are broad-
cast from transmitter towers located
around your city. They are intercept-
ed by the radio antenna on your vehi-
cle. This signal is then received by
the radio and sent to your vehicle
speakers.
When a strong radio signal has
reached your vehicle, the precise
engineering of your audio system
ensures the best possible quality
reproduction. However, in some cases the signal
coming to your vehicle may not be
strong and clear. This can be due to
factors, such as the distance from
the radio station, closeness of other
strong radio stations or the presence
of buildings, bridges or other large
obstructions in the area.

FM reception
OUB041165
Features of your vehicle

AM broadcasts can be received at
greater distances than FM broad-
casts. This is because AM radio
waves are transmitted at low fre-
quencies. These long, low frequency
radio waves can follow the curvature
of the earth rather than travelling
straight out into the atmosphere. In
addition, they curve around obstruc-
tions so that they can provide better
signal coverage. FM broadcasts are transmitted at
high frequencies and do not bend to
follow the earth's surface. Because
of this, FM broadcasts generally
begin to fade at short distances from
the station. Also, FM signals are eas-
ily affected by buildings, mountains,
or other obstructions. These can
result in certain listening conditions
which might lead you to believe a
problem exists with your radio. The
following conditions are normal and
do not indicate radio trouble: Fading - As your vehicle moves
away from the radio station, the
signal will weaken and sound will
begin to fade. When this occurs,
we suggest that you select another
stronger station.
Flutter/Static - Weak FM signals or large obstructions between the
transmitter and your radio can dis-
turb the signal causing static or
fluttering noises to occur. Reducing
the treble level may lessen this
effect until the disturbance clears.

Features of your vehicle
Station Swapping - As a FM signalweakens, another more powerful
signal near the same frequency
may begin to play. This is because
your radio is designed to lock onto
the clearest signal. If this occurs,
select another station with a
stronger signal.
Multi-Path Cancellation - Radio signals being received from sever-
al directions can cause distortion
or fluttering. This can be caused by
a direct and reflected signal from
the same station, or by signals
from two stations with close fre-
quencies. If this occurs, select
another station until the condition
has passed.
Satellite radio reception
You may experience difficulties in
receiving SiriusXM®Satellite Radio
signals in the following situations.
If you are driving in a tunnel or a covered parking area.
If you are driving beneath the top level of a multi-level freeway.
If you drive under a bridge.
If you are driving next to a tall vehi- cle (such as a truck or a bus) that
blocks the signal.
If you are driving in a valley where the surrounding hills or peaks
block the signal from the satellite. If you are driving on a mountain
road where is the signal blocked by
mountains.
If you are driving in an area with tall trees that block the signal (30 ft. /
10m or more), for example on an
road that goes through a dense for-
est.
The signal can become weak in some areas that are not covered
by the SIRIUS repeater network.
There may be other unforeseen cir-
cumstances leading to reception
problems with the SIRIUS satellite
radio signal.

Using a cellular phone or a two-
way radio
When a cellular phone is used inside
the vehicle, noise may be produced
from the audio system. This does not
mean that something is wrong with
the audio equipment. In such a case,
use the cellular phone at a place as
far as possible from the audio equip-
ment.
Care of disc (if equipped)
If the temperature inside the car is too high, open the car windows for
ventilation before using your car
audio.
It is illegal to copy and use MP3/WMA/AAC/WAVE files with-
out permission. Use CDs that are
created only by lawful means.
Do not apply volatile agents such as benzene and thinner, normal
cleaners and magnetic sprays
made for analogue disc onto CDs.
To prevent the disc surface from getting damaged. Hold and carry
CDs by the edges or the edges of
the center hole only.
Clean the disc surface with a piece of soft cloth before playback (wipe
it from the center to the outside
edge).
Do not damage the disc surface or attach pieces of sticky tape or
paper onto it.
Make sure on undesirable matter other than CDs are inserted into
the CD player (Do not insert more
than one CD at a time). Keep CDs in their cases after use
to protect them from scratches or
dirt.
Depending on the type of CD- R/CD-RW CDs, certain CDs may
not operate normally according to
manufacturing companies or mak-
ing and recording methods. In such
circumstances, if you still continue
to use those CDs, they may cause
the malfunction of your car audio
system.
✽ ✽ NOTICE - Playing an
Incompatible Copy-Protected
Audio CD
Some copy protected CDs, which do
not comply with the international
audio CD standards (Red Book),
may not play on your car audio.
Please note that if you try to play
copy protected CDs and the CD
player does not perform correctly
the CDs maybe defective, not the CD
player.
WARNING - Cell phone use
Do not use a cellular phone
while driving. Stop at a safe
location to use a cellular phone.
