Smart key precautions
✽✽NOTICE
If, for some reason, you happen to lose your smart key, you will not
be able to start the engine. Tow
the vehicle, if necessary, and con-
tact an authorized Kia dealer.
A maximum of 2 smart keys can be registered to a single vehicle. If
you lose a smart key, you should
immediately take the vehicle and
key to your authorized Kia dealer
to protect it from potential theft.
The smart key will not work if any of the following occurs:
- The smart key is close to a radiotransmitter such as a radio sta-
tion or an airport which can
interfere with normal operation
of the smart key.
- The smart key is near a mobile two-way radio system or a cellu-
lar phone.
- Another vehicle’s smart key is being operated close to your
vehicle. (Continued)(Continued)
When the smart key does not work
properly, 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 proxim- ity 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 call, receiv-
ing calls, text messaging, and/or
sending/receiving emails. Avoid
placing the smart key and your
cell phone or smart phone in the
same pants or jacket pocket and
maintain adequate distance
between the two devices. CAUTION
Keep the smart key away from
water or any liquid. If the key-less entry system is inoperative due to exposure to water or liq-uids, it will not be covered byyour manufacturer’s vehiclewarranty.
CAUTION
Keep the smart key away fromelectromagnetic materials thatblocks electromagnetic waves to the key surface.

Tailgate unlock (3) (if equipped)
The tailgate is unlocked if the button
is pressed for more than 1 second.
The hazard warning lights will blink twice to indicate that the tailgate is
unlocked.
However, after pressing this button,
the tailgate will lock automatically
unless you open the tailgate within
30 seconds.
Also, once the tailgate is opened and
then closed, the tailgate will lock

The transmitter will not work if any of
the following occurs:
The ignition key is in the ignition
switch.
You exceed the operating distance limit (about 10 m [30 feet]).
The battery in the transmitter is weak.
Other vehicles or objects may be blocking the signal.
The weather is extremely cold.
The transmitter is close to a radio transmitter such as a radio station or
an airport which can interfere with
normal operation of the transmitter.
If the transmitter is in close proximi- ty to your cell phone or smart phone,
the signal from the transmitter 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 call,
receiving calls, text messaging,
and/or sending/ receiving emails. Avoid placing the transmitter and
your cell phone or smart phone in
the same pants or jacket pocket andmaintain adequate distance

FM reception
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 vehi-
cle 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 sta-
tions or the presence of buildings,
bridges or other large obstructions inthe area.

AM (MW, LW) reception
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 radio station
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 anotherstronger 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.

56 Station Swapping - As a FM signal
weakens, 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 astronger signal.
Multi-Path Cancellation - Radio sig- nals being received from several
directions can cause distortion or
fluttering. This can be caused by adirect and reflected signal from the
same station, or by signals from
two stations with close frequencies.
If this occurs, select another stationuntil the condition has passed.
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 notmean 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 equipment.
CAUTION
When using a communicationsystem such as a cellular phoneor a radio set inside the vehicle, a separate external antennamust be fitted. When a cellularphone or a radio set is usedwith an internal antenna alone, it may interfere with the vehi-cle's electrical system andadversely affect safe operation of the vehicle.
WARNING
Do not use a cellular phone
while driving. Stop at a safe
location to use a cellular phone.
