while pressing the release button (1).
2. Recline the seatback (4) with the recline knob (3).
3. Adjust the headrest to the appropriate height. Active headrest (if equipped)
The active headrest is designed to move

This helps to prevent the driver's and
front passenger’s heads from moving
backward and thus helps prevent neck
injuries.Seat warmer (if equipped)

front seats during cold weather. With the
ignition switch in the ON position, push
either of the switches to warm the driver'sseat or the front passenger's seat.

Each time you press the button, the
temperature setting of the seat will
change as follows :

NOTICE
 When using the air conditioning sys- tem, monitor the temperature gauge
closely while driving up hills or in
heavy traffic when outside tempera-
tures are high. Air conditioning sys-
tem operation may cause engine over-
heating. Continue to use the blower
fan but turn the air conditioning sys-
tem off if the temperature gauge indi-
cates engine overheating.
 When opening the windows in humid weather air conditioning may create
water droplets inside the vehicle.
Since excessive water droplets may
cause damage to electrical equipment,
air conditioning should only be run
with the windows closed.Air conditioning system operation
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 the windows on rainy or humid days,
decrease the humidity inside the vehi-
cle by operating the air conditioningsystem.
During air conditioning system opera- tion, you may occasionally notice aslight change in engine speed as the
air conditioning compressor cycles.
This is a normal system operation
characteristic.
Use the air conditioning system every month only for a few minutes to ensure
maximum system performance.
When using the air conditioning sys- tem, you may notice clear water drip-
ping (or even puddling) on the ground
under the passenger side of the vehi-
cle. This is a normal system operation
characteristic.
CAUTION
The refrigerant system should
only be serviced by trained andcertified technicians to insure proper and safe operation.
The refrigerant system should be serviced in a well-ventilatedplace.
The air conditioning evaporator (cooling coil) shall never berepaired or replaced with one
removed from a used or salvaged vehicle and new replacement MACevaporators shall be certified (and labeled) as meeting SAE Standard
J2842.

Features of your vehicle
Operating the air conditioning systemin the recirculated air position provides
maximum cooling, however, continual
operation in this mode may cause the
air inside the vehicle to become stale.
During cooling operation, you may occasionally notice a misty air flow
because of rapid cooling and humid air
intake. This is a normal system opera-
tion characteristics.
Climate control air filter (if equipped) The climate control air filter installed
behind the glove box filters the dust or
other pollutants that come into the vehi-cle from the outside through the heating
and air conditioning system. If dust or
other pollutants accumulate in the filter
over a period of time, the air flow from the
air vents may decrease, resulting in
moisture accumulation on the inside of
the windshield even when the outside
(fresh) air position is selected. If this hap-
pens, we recommend the climate control
air filter be replaced by an authorized Kia
dealer.✽✽NOTICE
 Replace the filter according to the Maintenance Schedule.
If the vehicle is being driven in severe
conditions such as dusty, rough roads,
more frequent climate control air fil-
ter inspections and changes are
required.
 When the air flow rate is suddenly
decreases, we recommend that the
system be checked by an authorized
Kia dealer.
