SPORTAGE FE ATURES & FUNCTIONS GUIDE*IF EQUIPPED
Driving while distracted can result in a loss of vehicle control that may lead to an accident, severe personal injury and death. The driver’s primary responsibility is in the safe and legal operation of a vehicle, and use of any handheld devices, other equipment or vehicle systems which take the driver’s eyes, attention and focus away from the safe operation of a vehicle or that are not permissible by law should never be used during operation of the vehicle.

Fuel Economy
There are several factors that contribute to your
vehicle’s fuel economy, including maintenance of
your vehicle, driving style, environmental conditions,
vehicle weight and vehicle aerodynamics. Below are
tips on how to help improve fuel economy:
•Keep your vehicle in good condition with
regular maintenance
•Don’t let the engine idle longer than necessary
•Drive at a moderate speed, accelerating
smoothly and at a moderate rate
•Keep tires inflated to the recommended pressure
•Travel lightly, without carrying unnecessary
weight in your vehicles
•Avoid placing large or heavy items on roof racks
•Avoid hilly, winding or poorly maintained roads
REMINDER: Driving range varies depending on a vehicle’s fuel tank size, e.g., 12-gal. vs. 24-gal. Even though the two vehicles' MPG may be the same, the vehicle with the larger tank will have the greater range.
For more information on Fuel Economy, you can snap the QR Code to the right to view a video or refer to the brochure, "GETTING MORE OUT OF EVERY GALLON, FUEL-SAVING TIPS TO DRIVE BY" available at your local dealership.

The TPMS indicator
functions as both Low
Tire Pressure Light and TPMS
Malfunction Indicator.
The indicator will illuminate if
one or more tires is significantly
underinflated, the vehicle has a spare tire installed without TPMS
or the outside temperature becomes significantly lower.
The Low Tire Pressure Position Indicator A is displayed on the
LCD screen in the instrument cluster when one or more of your
tires are underinflated.
Inflate tire(s) to specifications using an accurate digital tire
pressure gauge to turn off Low Tire Pressure Light and Low Tire
Pressure Position Indicator A. See front driver’s door jamb for
PSI specification.
When there is a problem with the TPMS, the TPMS Malfunction
Indicator will blink for approximately one minute and then
illuminate. See dealer for service.
REMINDER: Consult your dealer for service if Low Tire Pressure Light remains illuminated after inflating your tire(s).

•Even with TPMS, tire pressure should be checked manually at least once a month. Only adjust tire pressure on “cold tires” •For proper maintenance and optimal fuel economy, maintain recommended tire inflation pressures and stay within the load limits and weight distribution recommended for your vehicle •In winter or cold weather, the TPMS light may illuminate if the tire pressure was adjusted to the recommended tire inflation pressure during warm weather

CENTER PANEL
Downhill Brake Control (DBC)
DBC helps drivers maneuver down steep hills by automatically braking for
them, allowing drivers to concentrate on steering.
Press button A to turn DBC ON/OFF.

•When on, the DBC will turn OFF when button is pressed again or vehicle speed is over 38 mph •If the red indicator illuminates, the DBC system may have malfunctioned. Take your vehicle to an authorized Kia dealer and have the system checked
QUICK TIPS
REMINDER: The DBC defaults to OFF when ignition is cycled.
AWD (All-Wheel Drive) Lock*
When you select AWD Lock mode by pressing the AWD LOCK button B, the
AWD LOCK mode increases the drive power when driving on wet pavement,
snow-covered roads and/or off-road.
•This mode is used for climbing or descending sharp grades, off-road
driving, driving on sandy and muddy roads, etc., to maximize traction
•This mode automatically begins to deactivate at speeds above 19 mph
(30 km/h) and is shifted to AWD AUTO mode at speeds above 25 mph
(40 km/h). If the vehicle decelerates to speeds below approximately 25
mph (40 km/h), however, the transfer mode is shifted into AWD LOCK
mode again
When the AWD LOCK mode is deactivated, a shock may be felt as the
drive power is delivered entirely to the front wheels. This shock is not a
mechanical failure.
