STEERING WHEEL
Electric power steering
Power steering uses the motor to as‐sist you in steering the vehicle. If the
engine is off or if the power steering
system becomes inoperative, the vehi‐ cle may still be steered, but it will re‐
quire increased steering effort.
The motor driven power steering is
controlled by the power steering con‐ trol unit which senses the steering
wheel torque, steering wheel position
and vehicle speed to command the mo‐ tor.
The steering wheel becomes heavier as
the vehicle’s speed increases and be‐
comes lighter as the vehicle’s speed de‐ creases for better control of the steer‐
ing wheel.
Should you notice any change in the ef‐
fort required to steer during normal ve‐ hicle operation, have the system
checked by a professional workshop.
Kia recommends to visit an authorized Kia dealer/service partner.NOTICE
The following symptoms may occur
during normal vehicle operation:
•The EPS warning light does not il‐
luminate.
•The steering effort is high imme‐
diately after turning the ignition
switch on. This happens as the
system performs the EPS system
diagnostics. When the diagnostics
is completed, the steering wheel
will return to its normal condition.
•A click noise may be heard from
the EPS relay after the ignition
switch is turned to the ON or LOCK
position.
•Motor noise may be heard when
the vehicle is at a stop or at a low
driving speed.

•If the Electric Power Steering Sys‐
tem does not operate normally,
the warning light will illuminate on
the instrument cluster. The steer‐
ing wheel may become difficult to
control or operate abnormally. In
this case, have the system inspec‐
ted by a professional workshop.
Kia recommends to visit an au‐
thorized Kia dealer/service part‐
ner.
•The steering effort increases if
the steering wheel is rotated con‐
tinuously when the vehicle is not
in motion. However, after a few
minutes, it will return to its normal
conditions.
•When you operate the steering
wheel in low temperature, abnor‐
mal noise could occur. If tempera‐
ture rises, the noise will disappear.
This is a normal condition.

•When the charging system warn‐
ing light comes on or the voltage is
low (When the alternator (or bat‐
tery) does not operate normally or
it malfunctions), the steering
wheel may get heavy and become
difficult to control operate abnor‐
mally.
Tilt & telescopic steering (if
equipped)
A tilt and telescopic steering wheel al‐
lows you to adjust the steering wheel before you drive.
You can also raise it to give your legs
more room when you exit and enter
the vehicle.
The steering wheel should be posi‐ tioned so that it is comfortable for you
to drive, while permitting you to see
the instrument panel warning lights and gauges.
WARNING
•Never adjust the angle of thesteering wheel while driving. Youmay lose steering control andcause severe personal injury,death or accidents.
•After adjusting, push the steeringwheel both up and down to be cer‐tain it is locked in position.
To change the steering wheel angle,
pull down the lock release lever (1), ad‐ just the steering wheel to the desired
angle (2) and height (3, if equipped),
then pull up the lock-release lever to lock the steering wheel in place. Be sure
to adjust the steering wheel to the de‐
sired position before driving.

Non-operational conditions of
rear parking assist system
The rear parking assist systemmay not operate properly when:
1. Moisture is frozen to the sensor. (Itwill operate normally when the
moisture has been cleared.)
2. The sensor is covered with foreign matter, such as snow or water, or
the sensor cover is blocked. (It will
operate normally when the materi‐
al is removed or the sensor is no
longer blocked.)
3. Driving on uneven road surfaces (unpaved roads, gravel, bumps, gra‐ dient).
4. Objects generating excessive noise (vehicle horns, loud motorcycle en‐
gines, or truck air brakes) are with‐
in range of the sensor.
5. Heavy rain or water spray exists.
6. Wireless transmitters or mobile phones are within range of the
sensor.
7. The sensor is covered with snow.
8. Trailer towing.
The detecting range may decreasewhen:
1. The sensor is stained with foreign matter such as snow or water. (The
sensing range will return to normal
when removed.)
2. Outside air temperature is ex‐ tremely hot or cold.
The following objects may not berecognized by the sensor:
1. Sharp or slim objects such as ropes,chains or small poles.
2. Objects which tend to absorb the sensor frequency such as clothes,
spongy material or snow.
3. Undetectable objects smaller than 1 m (40 in.) in height and narrower
than 14 cm (6 in.) in diameter.
Rear parking assist system
precautions
• The rear parking assist system may not sound consistently depending on
the speed and shapes of the objects detected. • The rear parking assist system may
malfunction if the vehicle bumper
height or sensor installation has been
modified or damaged. Any non-fac‐
tory installed equipment or accesso‐ ries may also interfere with the sen‐
sor performance.
• The sensor may not recognize ob‐ jects less than 30 cm (12 in.) from
the sensor, or it may sense an incor‐
rect distance. Use caution.
• When the sensor is frozen or stained with snow, dirt, or water, the sensor
may be inoperative until the stains
are removed using a soft cloth.
• Do not push, scratch or strike the sensor. Sensor damage could occur.
NOTICE
This system can only sense objects
within the range and location of the
sensors; It can not detect objects in
other areas where sensors are not
installed. Also, small or slim objects,
such as poles or objects located be‐

LIGHTING
Battery saver function
• The purpose of this feature is to pre‐vent the battery from being dis‐
charged. The system automatically
turns off the parking lights when the driver removes the ignition key
(smart key: turns off the engine) and
opens the driver-side door.
• With this feature, the parking lights will be turned off automatically if the
driver parks on the side of road at night.
If necessary, to keep the lights on
when the ignition key is removed,
(smart key: turns off the engine) per‐form the following: 1. Open the driver-side door.
2. Turn the parking lights OFF and ON again using the light switch on the
steering column.

pressing the lock button on the trans‐ mitter (or smart key) twice or turning
off the light switch from the headlight
or Auto light position.
CAUTION
If the driver gets out of the vehiclethrough other doors (except driver'sdoor), the battery saver functiondoes not operate and the headlightescort function does not turn off au‐tomatically. Therefore, it causes thebattery to be discharged. In thiscase, make sure to turn off the lampbefore getting out of the vehicle.
