CAUTION
The Emergency Stop Signal systemwill not work if the hazard warningflasher is already on.
Good braking practices
WARNING
•Whenever leaving vehicle or park‐ing, always set the parking brakeas far as possible and fully engagethe vehicle's transaxle into thepark position. Vehicles not fully en‐gaged in park with the parkingbrake set are at risk for moving in‐advertently and injuring yourselfor others.
•All vehicles should always have theparking brake fully engaged whenparking to avoid inadvertentmovement of the car which can in‐jure occupants or pedestrians.
• After parking the vehicle, check to besure the parking brake is not engaged
and that the parking brake indicator light is out before driving away. • Driving through water may get the
brakes wet. They can also get wet
when the car is washed. Wet brakes
can be dangerous! Your car will not
stop as quickly if the brakes are wet. Wet brakes may cause the car to pull
to one side.
To dry the brakes, apply the brakes
lightly until the braking action returns
to normal, taking care to keep the car
under control at all times. If the brak‐ ing action does not return to normal,
stop as soon as it is safe to do so and
have your vehicle inspected by a pro‐
fessional workshop.
Kia recommends to call an authorized Kia dealer/service partner.
• Don't coast down hills with the car out of gear. This is extremely hazard‐
ous. Keep the car in gear at all times,
use the brakes to slow down, then
shift to a lower gear so that engine braking will help you maintain a safe
speed.
• Don't "ride" the brake pedal. Resting your foot on the brake pedal while
driving can be dangerous because it
can result in the brakes overheating and losing their effectiveness. It also
increases the wear of the brake com‐
ponents. • If a tire goes flat while you are driv‐
ing, apply the brakes gently and keepthe car pointed straight ahead while
you slow down. When you are moving
slowly enough for it to be safe to do
so, pull off the road and stop in a
safe place.
• If your car is equipped with an auto‐ matic transaxle, don't let your car
creep forward. To avoid creeping for‐
ward, keep your foot firmly on the
brake pedal when the car is stopped.
• Be cautious when parking on a hill. Firmly engage the parking brake andplace the shift lever in P (Park). If
your car is facing downhill, turn the
front wheels into the curb to help
keep the car from rolling. If your car is facing uphill, turn the front wheels
away from the curb to help keep the
car from rolling. If there is no curb or
if it is required by other conditions to
keep the car from rolling, block the wheels.

Making turns
When you’re turning with a trailer,
make wider turns than normal. Do this so your trailer won’t strike soft should‐
ers, curbs, road signs, trees, or other
objects. Avoid jerky or sudden maneu‐ vers. Signal well in advance.
Turn signals when towing a trailer
When you tow a trailer, your vehicle
has to have a different turn signal flasher and extra wiring. The green ar‐
rows on your instrument panel will
flash whenever you signal a turn or lane change. Properly connected, the
trailer lights will also flash to alert oth‐
er drivers you’re about to turn, change lanes, or stop.
When towing a trailer, the green ar‐
rows on your instrument panel will
flash for turns even if the bulbs on the trailer are burned out. Thus, you may
think drivers behind you are seeing
your signals when, in fact, they are not. It’s important to check occasionally to
be sure the trailer bulbs are still work‐
ing. You must also check the lights ev‐ ery time you disconnect and then re‐
connect the wires.
Do not connect a trailer lighting system
directly to your vehicle’s lighting sys‐ tem. Use only an approved trailer wir‐
ing harness. Have yourself assisted by a professio‐
nal workshop in installing the wiring harness.
Kia recommends to visit an authorized
Kia dealer/service partner.
WARNING
Failure to use an approved trailerwiring harness could result in dam‐age to the vehicle electrical systemand/or personal injury.
Driving on grades
Reduce the speed and shift to a lower
gear before you start down a long or steep downgrade. If you don’t shift
down, you might have to use your
brakes so much that they would get hot and no longer operate efficiently.
On a long uphill grade, shift down and
reduce your speed to around 70 km/h
(45 mph) to reduce the possibility of engine and transaxle overheating.
If your trailer weighs more than the
maximum trailer weight without trailer
brakes and you have an automatic transaxle, you should drive in D (Drive)
when towing a trailer. Operating your vehicle in D (Drive)
when towing a trailer will minimize heat build up and extend the life of
your transaxle.
CAUTION
•When towing a trailer on steepgrades (in excess of 6%) pay closeattention to the engine coolanttemperature gauge to ensure theengine does not overheat. If theneedle of the coolant temperaturegauge moves across the dial to‐wards L

ROAD WARNING
Hazard warning flasher
The hazard warning flasher serves as a
warning to other drivers to exercise ex‐ treme caution when approaching, over‐
taking, or passing your vehicle.
It should be used whenever emergency
repairs are being made or when the ve‐ hicle is stopped near the edge of a
roadway.
Depress the flasher switch with the ig‐
nition switch in any position. The flash‐ er switch is located in the center con‐
sole switch panel. All turn signal lights
will flash simultaneously. • The hazard warning flasher operates whether your vehicle is running ornot. • The turn signals do not work when
the hazard flasher is on.
• Care must be taken when using the hazard warning flasher while the ve‐
hicle is being towed.

zle, ECE regulation demand several
technical solutions (ex. automatic

down aiming). This headlamps are
designed not to dazzle opposite driv‐

headlamps in a country with oppo‐
