Second stage alert
A warning chime to alert the driver will
activate when:
1. A vehicle has been detected in the
blind spot area by the radar system
(the warning light will illuminate on the
outside rearview mirror) AND
2. The turn signal is applied (same side as where the vehicle is being detect-ed).
When this alert is activated, the warning
light on the outside rearview mirror will
also blink.
If you turn off the turn signal indicator, the
warning chime will be deactivated. - The second stage alarm can be deac-
tivated.
To activate the alarm: Go to the User Settings Mode
Sound and select "BSD" on the LCD
display.
To deactivate the alarm: Go to the User Settings Mode
Sound and deselect "BSD" on the LCD
display.Non-operating condition
The sensors are located inside of the
rear bumper.
Always keep the rear bumper clean for
the system to work properly.

When the BSD canceled warning mes-
sage is displayed in the cluster, check to
make sure that the rear bumper is free
from any dirt or snow in the areas where
the sensor is located. Remove any dirt,
snow, or foreign material that could inter-
fere with the radar sensors.
After any dirt or debris is removed, the
BSD system should operate normally
after about 10 minutes of driving the
vehicle.
If the system still does not operate nor-
mally have your vehicle inspected by an
authorized Kia dealer.
If there is a problem with the BSD sys-
tem, a warning message will appear and
the light on the switch will turn off. The
system will turn off automatically. We rec-
ommend that you have your vehicle
inspected by an authorized Kia dealer.RCTA (Rear cross traffic alert)
The Rear Cross Traffic Alert feature mon-
itors approaching cross traffic from the
left and right side of the vehicle when
your vehicle is in reverse.

Driving on grades
Reduce speed and shift to a lower gear
before you start down a long or steep
downgrade. If you don’t shift down, you
might have to use your brakes so much
that they would get hot and no longer
operate efficiently.
On a long uphill grade, shift down and
reduce your speed to around 70 km/h (45mph) to reduce the possibility of engine
and transaxle overheating.
If your trailer weighs more than the max-
imum trailer weight without trailer brakes
and you have an automatic transaxle,
you should drive in D (Drive) when tow-
ing a trailer.
Operating your vehicle in D (Drive) when
towing a trailer will minimize heat build up
and extend the life of your transaxle.CAUTION
When towing a trailer on steep
grades (in excess of 6%) pay close
attention to the engine coolanttemperature gauge to ensure theengine does not overheat.
If the coolant temperature redwarning light illuminates or the coolant temperature gaugemoves towards “130”, pull overand stop as soon as it is safe to
do so, and allow the engine to idleuntil it cools down. You may pro- ceed once the engine has cooledsufficiently.
You must decide driving speed depending on trailer weight anduphill grade to reduce the possi-bility of engine and transaxle overheating.
(Continued)
(Continued) For vehicles equipped with a dual clutch transmission when towinga trailer on steep grades, theclutch in the transmission could
overheat.
When the clutch is overheated,the safe protection modeengages. If the safe protection
mode engages, the gear positionindicator on the cluster blinkswith a chime sound.
At this time, a warning messagewill appear on the LCD display
and driving may not be smooth.
If you ignore this warning, the driv-ing condition may become worse.
To return to normal driving condi-tion, stop the vehicle on a flat
road and apply the foot brake fora few minutes before driving off.

What to do in an emergency
• Do not use the Tire Mobility Kit if atire is severely damaged by driving
run flat or with insufficient air pres-
sure.
Do not remove any foreign objects such as nails or screws that have
penetrated the tire.
Provided the car is outdoors, leave the engine running. Otherwise
operating the compressor may
eventually drain the car battery.
Never leave the Tire Mobility Kit unattended while it is being used.
Do not leave the compressor run- ning for more than 10 min. at a time
or it may overheat.
Do not use the Tire Mobility Kit if the ambient temperature is below -30°C (-22°F).

TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM (TPMS)
(1) Low tire pressure telltale / TPMS malfunction indicator
(2) Low tire pressure position telltale (Shown on the instrument panel
display) Each tire, including the spare (if pro-
vided), should be checked monthlywhen cold and inflated to the inflation
pressure recommended by the vehicle
manufacturer on the vehicle placard or
tire inflation pressure label. (If your
vehicle has tires of a different size than
the size indicated on the vehicle plac-
ard or tire inflation pressure label, you
should determine the proper tire infla-
tion pressure for those tires.)
As an added safety feature, your vehi- cle has been equipped with a tire pres-
sure monitoring system (TPMS) that
illuminates a low tire pressure telltale
when one or more of your tires is sig-
nificantly under-inflated. Accordingly,
when the low tire pressure telltale illu-
minates, you should stop and check
your tires as soon as possible, and
inflate them to the proper pressure.
Driving on a significantly under-inflat-
ed tire causes the tire to overheat and
can lead to tire failure. Under-inflationalso reduces fuel efficiency and tire
tread life, and may affect the vehicle’s
handling and stopping ability.
Please note that the TPMS is not a
substitute for proper tire maintenance,
and it is the driver’s responsibility to
maintain correct tire pressure, even ifunder-inflation has not reached the
level to trigger illumination of the
TPMS low tire pressure telltale.
Your vehicle has also been equipped
with a TPMS malfunction indicator toindicate when the system is not oper-
ating properly. The TPMS malfunction
indicator is combined with the low tire
pressure telltale. When the systemdetects a malfunction, the telltale will
flash for approximately 1 minute and
then remain continuously illuminated.
This sequence will continue upon
subsequent vehicle start-ups as long
as the malfunction exists. When theTPMS malfunction indicator remains
illuminated after blinking for approxi-
mately 1 minute, the system may not
be able to detect or signal low tirepressure as intended.

Maintenance
3. Checking tire life (TIN : Tire Identification Number)
Any tires that are over 6 years, based
on the manufacturing date, tire
strength and performance, decline
with age naturally (even unused
spare tires). Therefore, the tires(including the spare tire) should be
replaced by new ones. You can find
the manufacturing date on the tire
sidewall (possibly on the inside of the
wheel), displaying the DOT Code.
The DOT Code is a series of num-
bers on a tire consisting of numbers
and English letters. The manufactur-
ing date is designated by the last four
digits (characters) of the DOT code.
DOT : XXXX XXXX OOOO
The front part of the DOT means a
plant code number, tire size and tread
pattern and the last four numbers indi-
cate week and year manufactured.
For example:
DOT XXXX XXXX 1617 represents
that the tire was produced in the 16th
week of 2017.
4. Tire ply composition and material
The number of layers or plies of rub-
ber-coated fabric are in the tire. Tire
manufacturers also must indicate the
materials in the tire, which include
steel, nylon, polyester, and others.
The letter "R" means radial ply con-
struction; the letter "D" means diago-
nal or bias ply construction; and theletter "B" means belted-bias ply con-
struction.
5. Maximum permissible inflationpressure
This number is the greatest amount of air pressure that should be put in
the tire. Do not exceed the maximum
permissible inflation pressure. Refer
to the Tire and Loading Information
label for recommended inflation
pressure.
6. Maximum load rating
This number indicates the maximum
load in kilograms and pounds that can
be carried by the tire. When replacing
the tires on the vehicle, always use a
tire that has the same load rating as
the factory installed tire.
WARNING - Tire age
Tires degrade over time, even
when they are not being used.
Regardless of the remaining
tread, it is recommended that
tires generally be replaced after
six (6) years of normal service.
Heat caused by hot climates orfrequent high loading condi-
tions can accelerate the aging
process. Failure to follow this
Warning can result in sudden
tire failure, which could lead to
a loss of control and an acci-
dent involving serious injury ordeath.
