Overview
Description
The trip computer is a microcomput-
er-controlled driver information sys-
tem that displays information related
to driving.
✽ ✽NOTICE
Some driving information stored in
the trip computer (for example
Average Vehicle Speed) resets if the
battery is disconnected.
Trip ModesEnergy consumption
Average energy consumption (1)
The average energy consumption
is calculated by the total driving dis-
tance and the high voltage battery
consumption since the last average
energy consumption reset.
- Average energy consumptionrange : 0.0 ~ 99.9 miles/kwh
The average energy consumption can be reset both manually and
automatically.

Manual reset
To clear the average energy con-
sumption manually, press the but-
ton (MOVE) on the steering wheel for
more than 1 second when the aver-
age energy consumption is displayed.
Automatic reset
To make the average energy con-
sumption be reset automatically
whenever recharging, select the
“Auto Reset” mode in User Settings
menu of the LCD display (Refer to
“LCD Display”).
Under “Auto Reset” mode, the aver-
age energy consumption will be
cleared to zero (---) when the driving
distance exceeds 0.19 mile (300m)
after recharging more than 10%.Instant energy consumption (2)
This mode displays the instant ener- gy consumption during the last few
seconds when the vehicle speed is
more than 10 km/h (6.2 MPH).
- Instant energy consumptionrange : 0.0 ~ 8miles/kwh
Trip A/B
Tripmeter (1)
The tripmeter is the total driving dis- tance since the last tripmeter reset.
- Distance range: 0.0 ~ 999.9 km ormi.
To reset the tripmeter, press the RESET ( ) button on the steering
wheel for more than 1 second
when the tripmeter is displayed.

Average Vehicle Speed (2)
The average vehicle speed is cal-culated by the total driving dis-
tance and driving time since the
last average vehicle speed reset.
- Speed range: 200 km/h or 160
MPH
To reset the average vehicle speed, press the RESET ( ) button on
the steering wheel for more than 1
second when the average vehicle
speed is displayed.
✽ ✽ NOTICE
• The average vehicle speed is not dis-
played if the driving distance is less
than 50 meters (0.03 miles) or the
driving time is less than 10 seconds
since the POWER button is turned
to ON.
• Even if the vehicle is not in motion, the average vehicle speed
keeps going while the vehicle is in
the ready ( ) mode.
Elapsed Time (3)
The elapsed time is the total driv-
ing time since the last elapsed time
reset.
- Time range (hh:mm): 00:00 ~ 99:59
To reset the elapsed time, press the RESET ( ) button on the
steering wheel for more than 1
second when the elapsed time is
displayed.
✽ ✽ NOTICE
Even if the vehicle is not in motion,
the elapsed time keeps going while
the vehicle is in the ready ( )
mode.
One time driving information mode
This display shows trip distance (1),
battery level (2), charging time status
(3, if equipped) and climate time sta-
tus (4, if equipped).
This information is displayed for a
few seconds when you turn off the
vehicle and then goes off automati-
cally. The information provided is cal-
culated according to each trip.
If the estimated distance is below
15km (9.3 mi.), and a recharging
message will appear (5).
To set the charging time and/or cli-
mate time, refer to a separately sup-
plied navigation manual for detailed
information.

Range
On average, a vehicle can drive
about 148km (93miles) when the
high voltage battery is 100%
charged.
Under certain circumstances where
the air conditioner/heater is ON, the
distance to empty is impacted,
resulting in a possible distance range
from 100~230km. (62~143mi). When
using the heater during cold weather
or driving at high speed, the high
voltage battery consumes a lot more
electricity. This may reduce the dis-
tance to empty significantly. After “---” has been displayed, the vehi-
cle can drive an additional 5~15km
(3.1~9.3mi.) (depending on driving
speed, heater/air conditioner, weather,
driving style, and other factors).
Distance to empty that is displayed
on the instrument cluster after com-
pleting a recharge may vary signifi-
cantly depending on previous operat-
ing patterns.
When previous driving patterns
include high speed driving, resulting
in the driving battery using more
electricity than usual, the estimated
distance to empty is reduced. When
the high voltage battery uses a little
electricity in ECO mode, the estimat-
ed distance to empty increases.
Distance to empty may depend on
many factors such as the charge
amount of the high voltage battery,
weather, temperature, durability of
the battery, geographical features,
and driving style.
Natural degradation may occur with
the high voltage battery depending
on the number of years the vehicle is
used. This may reduce the distance
to empty.

Warning lights
✽ ✽NOTICE - Warning lights
Make sure that all warning lights
are OFF after starting the vehicle. If
any light is still ON, this indicates a
situation that needs attention.
Service warning light
This warning light illuminates :
Once you set the POWER button
to the ON position.
- It illuminates for approximately 3seconds
There is a failure with a sensor, actuator, or the electric compres-
sor for the air conditioner related to
the electric vehicle control system.
When the warning light turns ON
while driving, or does not turn OFF
after vehicle has started, have your
vehicle inspected by an authorized
Kia dealer.
Power down warning
light
This warning light illuminates :
When the power is limited for the safety of the electric vehicle.
- When the high voltage batterylevel is below a certain threshold,
the voltage is decreasing, the
temperature of the motor or driv-
ing battery is too high or too low,
there is a failure in the cooling
system, or a failure that is dis-
rupting normal driving.

High voltage battery
level warning light
This warning light illuminates :
When the high voltage battery level is not enough.
When the warning light turns ON,
Charge the battery immediately.
Regenerative
brake warninglight
This warning light illuminates :
The regenerative brake does not operate and the brake does not
perform well. This causes the
brake warning lamp (red) and
regenerative brake warning lamp
(yellow) to turn ON simultaneously.
In this case, drive safely and have
your vehicle inspected by an
authorized Kia dealer.
In this case, operation of the brake
pedal may be more difficult than
normal and the braking distance
can increase.
Air bag Warning Light
This warning light illuminates:
Once you set thePOWER button tothe ON position.
- It illuminates for approximately 6seconds and then goes off.
When there is a malfunction with the SRS.
In this case, have your vehicle
