Features of your vehicle
Power outlet (if equipped)
The power outlet is designed to pro-
vide power for mobile telephones or
other devices designed to operate
with vehicle electrical systems. The
devices should draw less than 12V,
15A with the engine running.Use the power outlet only when the
engine is running and remove the
accessory plug after use. Using the
accessory plug for prolonged periods
of time with the engine off could
cause the battery to discharge.
Only use 12V electric accessories
which are less than 15A in electric
capacity.
Adjust the air-conditioner or heater to
the lowest operating level when
using the power outlet.
Close the cover when not in use.
Some electronic devices can cause
electronic interference when plugged
into a vehicle’s power outlet. These
devices may cause excessive audio
static and malfunctions in other elec-
tronic systems or devices used in
your vehicle.

USING THE USB DEVICE
To use an external USB device,make sure the device is not con-
nected when starting up the
vehicle. Connect the device after
starting up.
If you start the engine when the USB device is connected, it may
damage the USB device. (USB
flashdrives are very sensitive to
electric shock.)
If the engine is started up or turned off while the external USB
device is connected, the external
USB device may not work.
The System may not play unau- thenticated MP3 or WMA files.
1) It can only play MP3 files with the compression rate between
8Kbps ~ 320Kbps.
2) It can only play WMA music files with the compression rate
between 8Kbps ~ 320Kbps.
Take precautions for static elec- tricity when connecting or discon-
necting the external USB device.
(Continued)(Continued)
An encrypted MP3 PLAYER is
not recognizable.
Depending on the condition of the external USB device, the
connected external USB device
can be unrecognizable.
When the formatted byte/sector setting of External USB device is
not either 512BYTE or
2048BYTE, then the device will
not be recognized.
Use only a USB device format- ted to FAT 12/16/32.
USB devices without USB I/F authentication may not be recog-
nizable.
Make sure the USB connection terminal does not come in con-
tact with the human body or
other objects.
If you repeatedly connect or dis- connect the USB device in a
short period of time, it may break
the device.
(Continued)(Continued)
You may hear a strange noise
when connecting or disconnect-
ing a USB device.
If you disconnect the external USB device during playback in
USB mode, the external USB
device can be damaged or may
malfunction. Therefore, discon-
nect the external USB device
when the audio is turned off or in
another mode. (e.g, Radio, CD)
Depending on the type and capacity of the external USB
device or the type of the files
stored in the device, there is a
difference in the time taken for
recognition of the device.
Do not use the USB device for purposes other than playing
music files.
Playing videos through the USB is not supported.
Use of USB accessories such as rechargers or heaters using USB
I/F may lower performance or
cause trouble.

position when speaking voice com-
mands.
• Within the following situations, voice recognition may not function
properly due to external sound.
- When the windows and sunroofare open

Maintenance

At least monthly:
Check the coolant level in theengine coolant reservoir.
Check the operation of all exterior lights, including the stoplights, turn
signals and hazard warning flash-
ers.
Check the inflation pressures of all tires including the spare.
At least twice a year
(i.e., every Spring and Fall) :
Check the radiator, heater and air conditioning hoses for leaks or
damage.
Check the windshield washer spray and wiper operation. Clean
the wiper blades with clean cloth
dampened with washer fluid.
Check the headlight alignment.
Check the muffler, exhaust pipes, shields and clamps.
Check the lap/shoulder belts for wear and function.
Check for worn tires and loose wheel lug nuts.

Maintenance
ENGINE COOLANT
The high-pressure cooling system
has a reservoir filled with year-round
antifreeze coolant. The reservoir is
filled at the factory.
Check the antifreeze protection and
coolant level at least once a year, at
the beginning of the winter season,
and before traveling to a colder cli-
mate.Checking the coolant level
Check the condition and connections
of all cooling system hoses and
heater hoses. Replace any swollen
or deteriorated hoses.
The coolant level should be filled
between F (MAX) and L (MIN) marks
on the side of the coolant reservoir
when the engine is cool.
If the coolant level is low, add enough
specified coolant or distilled (deion-
ized) water to provide protection
against freezing and corrosion. Bring
the level to F (MAX), but do not over-
fill. If frequent coolant addition is
required, see an authorized Kia deal-
er for a cooling system inspection.
Recommended engine coolant
When adding coolant, use onlydeionized water or soft water for
your vehicle and never mix hard
water in the coolant filled at the fac-
tory. An improper coolant mixture
can result in serious malfunction or
engine damage.
The engine in your vehicle has alu- minum engine parts and must be
protected by an ethylene-glycol
with phosphate based coolant to
prevent corrosion and freezing.
DO NOT USE alcohol or methanol coolant or mix them with the spec-
ified coolant.
Do not use a solution that contains more than 60% antifreeze or less
than 35% antifreeze, which would
reduce the effectiveness of the
solution.
WARNING - Cooling fan
Use caution when
working near the
blade of the cooling
fan. The electric
motor (cooling fan) is
controlled by engine coolant
temperature, refrigerant pres-
sure and vehicle speed. It may
sometimes operate even when
the engine is not running.
