• Operation conditions To activate the system, take the fol‐
lowing procedures. Enter your desti‐
nation information on the navigation
and select the driving route. Select
the ECO mode in the Integrated Driv‐ ing Control System. Then, satisfy the
following. - The driving speed should be be‐ tween 60 km/h (37 mph) and
160 km/h (99 mph).
❈ The operating speed may vary due
to difference between instrument
cluster and navigation effected by
tire inflation level.NOTICE
Coasting guide is only a supplemen‐
tal system to assist with fuel-effi‐
cient driving. Thus, the operating
conditions may be different in ac‐
cordance with traffic/road condi‐
tions (i.e. driving in a traffic jam,
driving on a slope, driving on a
curve). Thus, take the actual driving
conditions into consideration, such
as distances from the vehicles
ahead/ behind, while referring to the
coasting guide system as guidance.
Unplug vehicle to start (Plug-in
hybrid)
The message is displayed when you
start the engine without unplugging the charging cable. Unplug the charging
cable, and then start the vehicle.
Shift to P to charge (Plug-in hybrid)

You should refill the fuel tank to pre‐
vent hybrid battery damage.
Refill inverter coolant
This warning message illuminates when
the inverter coolant is nearly empty.
You should refill the inverter coolant.
Check brakes
This warning message illuminates when
the brake performance is low or the re‐ generative brake does not work prop‐
erly due to a failure in the brake sys‐
tem.
In this case, it may take longer for the brake pedal to operate and the braking
distance may become longer.
Stop vehicle and check brakes
This warning message is displayed
when a failure occurs in the brake sys‐ tem.
In this case, park the vehicle in a safe
location and we recommend you to tow
your vehicle to the nearest authorized Kia dealer and have the vehicle inspec‐
ted.
Coasting guide (if equipped)
A chime will sound and the coasting
guide indicator will blink four times to inform the driver when to take the foot
off from the accelerator by anticipating
a decelerating event* based on the analysis of driving routes and road con‐
ditions of the navigation. It encourages
the driver to remove foot from the pedal and allow coasting down the road
with EV motor only. This helps prevent
unnecessary fuel consumption and in‐ creases fuel efficiency. ❈ Example of a deceleration event is
going down an extended hill, slow‐ ing down approaching a toll booth,
and approaching reduced speed
zones.

NOTICE
If there is a malfunction with the
TPMS, the low tire pressure position
telltale will not be displayed even
though the vehicle has an under-in‐
flated tire.
CAUTION
•The TPMS malfunction indicatormay blink for approximately 1 mi‐nute and then remain continuouslyilluminated if the vehicle is movingaround electric power supply ca‐bles or radio transmitters such asat police stations, government andpublic offices, broadcasting sta‐tions, military installations, air‐ports, or transmitting towers, etc.This can interfere with normal op‐eration of the Tire Pressure Moni‐toring System (TPMS).

•The TPMS malfunction indicatormay blink for approximately 1 mi‐nute and then remain continuouslyilluminated if snow chains are usedor some separate electronic devi‐ces such as notebook computer,mobile charger, remote starter ornavigation etc., are used in the ve‐hicle.This can interfere with normal op‐eration of the Tire Pressure Moni‐toring System (TPMS).
Changing a tire with TPMS
If you have a flat tire, the low Tire
Pressure and Position telltales will come on. We recommend that the sys‐
tem be checked by an authorized Kia
dealer.
CAUTION
We recommend that you use thesealant approved by Kia.The sealant on the tire pressuresensor and wheel shall be eliminatedwhen you replace the tire with a newone.
Each wheel is equipped with a tire pres‐
sure sensor mounted inside the tire be‐ hind the valve stem. You must use
TPMS specific wheels. It is recommen‐
ded that you have your tires serviced by an authorized Kia dealer.
If you drive the vehicle for about 10 mi‐
nutes at speeds above 25 km/h after
replacing the low pressure tire with the spare tire, one of the following will hap‐
pen: • The TPMS malfunction indicator may blink for approximately 1 minute and
then remain continuously illuminated because the TPMS sensor is not
mounted on the spare wheel.
(changed tire equipped with a sensor
not in the vehicle)
• The TPMS malfunction indicator will remain continuously illuminated whiledriving because the TPMS sensor is
