Operation Tips
To keep dust or unpleasant fumes from
entering the vehicle through the venti-
lation system, temporarily set the air
intake control to the recirculated air
position. Be sure to return the control
to the fresh air position when the irrita-
tion has passed to keep fresh air in the
vehicle. This will help keep the driver
alert and comfortable.
Air for the heating/cooling system is drawn in through the grilles just ahead
of the windshield. Care should be
taken that these are not blocked by
leaves, snow, ice or other obstructions.
To prevent interior fog on the wind- shield, set the air intake control to the
fresh air position and fan speed to the
desired position, turn on the air condi-
tioning system, and adjust the temper-
ature control to desired temperature.Air conditioning
Kia Air Conditioning Systems are filled
with environmentally friendly R-134a
refrigerant.
1. Start the engine. Press the air condi- tioning button.
2. Set the mode to the position.
3. Set the air intake control to the outside air or recirculated air position.
4. Adjust the fan speed control and tem- perature control to maintain maximum
comfort.
When maximum cooling is desired, set the temperature control to the extreme
left position, then set the fan speed
control to the highest speed.CAUTION
When using the air conditioning system, monitor the temperaturegauge closely while driving up hills or in heavy traffic when out-side temperatures are high. Airconditioning system operation may cause engine overheating.Continue to use the blower fan but turn the air conditioning sys-tem off if the temperature gauge indicates engine overheating.
When opening the windows in humid weather air conditioningmay create water droplets insidethe vehicle. Since excessivewater droplets may cause dam- age to electrical equipment, airconditioning should only be used with the windows closed.

nals. This antenna can be removed. To
remove the antenna, turn it counterclock-
wise. To install the antenna, turn it clock-
wise.When reinstalling your antenna, it is
important that it is fully tightened and
adjusted to the upright position to ensure

Station Swapping - As a FM signalweakens, another more powerful sig-
nal near the same frequency may
begin to play. This is because your
radio is designed to lock onto the clear-
est signal. If this occurs, select another
station with a stronger signal.
Multi-Path Cancellation - Radio signals being received from several directions
can cause distortion or fluttering. This
can be caused by a direct and reflect-
ed signal from the same station, or by
signals from two stations with close
frequencies. If this occurs, select
another station until the condition has
passed.
Satellite radio reception
You may experience difficulties in receiv-
ing Sirius XM®Satellite Radio signals in
the following situations.
If you are driving in a tunnel or a cov- ered parking area.
If you are driving beneath the top level of a multi-level freeway.
If you drive under a bridge.
If you are driving next to a tall vehicle (such as a truck or a bus) that blocks
the signal.
If you are driving in a valley where the surrounding hills or peaks block the
signal from the satellite. If you are driving on a mountain road
where is the signal blocked by moun-
tains.
If you are driving in an area with tall trees that block the signal (30 ft. / 10m
or more), for example on an road that
goes through a dense forest.
The signal can become weak in some areas that are not covered by the SIR-
IUS repeater network.
There may be other unforeseen circum-
stances leading to reception problems
with the SIRIUS satellite radio signal.
