•Air Conditioner Refrigerant Charge
Air conditioner refrigerant charge is covered for the
first 12 months of the warranty period regardless of

refrigerant charge is covered only when replenished
as part of a warranty repair.

An original equipment radio, compact disk player,
OE DVD / RSE (Rear Seat Entertainment System)

36months/36,000 miles.
•Battery (Non Hybrid)
The original equipment battery is covered by a
limited warranty for a period of 24 months,
regardless of mileage. During 24 months of the
warranty period, a defective battery will be replaced
at no cost to you. Kia will cover diagnostic,
installation and replacement battery costs.
Kia will not reimburse you for any portion of the
cost of a non-Kia replacement battery.
* Refer to page 24 for Hybrid Battery Pack
Coverage.
•Brake and Clutch Linings
Brake linings, including pads and shoes, and clutch
linings are warranted for 12 months/12,000 miles,
whichever comes first, if they fail to function
properly during normal use. Brake linings are
designed to wear out as part of the process of
stopping your vehicle safely and consistently while
providing reasonable levels of noise and vibration
during normal use. Brake or clutch linings function
properly during normal use even if they need
replacement in less than the full warranty period.
Rather, most replacements at lower mileage are
required by driver usage habits which can cause high
rates of wear. In addition, brake lining wear is
substantially increased by environmental conditions
such as exposure to road salt or due to regular
driving in stop and go rush hour traffic. The more
wear factors which are present, the more rapid the
wear. Resulting repairs and replacements of linings
are not covered by your warranty.
