The ignition switch must be on for the
turn signals to function. To turn on the turn signals, move the lever up or down
(A).
The green arrow indicators on the in‐
strument panel indicate which turn sig‐ nal is operating. They will self-cancel
after a turn is completed.
If the indicator continues to flash after
a turn, manually return the lever to the off position.
To signal a lane change, move the turn
signal lever slightly and hold it in posi‐
tion (B). The lever will return to the off position when released.
If an indicator stays on and does not
flash or if it flashes abnormally, one of
the turn signal bulbs may be burned out and will require replacement.
One-touch lane change function (if
equipped)
To activate an one-touch lane change
function, move the turn signal lever slightly and then release it. The lane
change signals will blink 3 times.
NOTICE
If an indicator flash is abnormally
quick or slow, a bulb may be burned
out or have a poor electrical connec‐
tion in the circuit.

Features of your vehicle
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

zle, ECE regulation demand several
technical solutions (ex. automatic
change system, adhesive sheet,
down aiming). This headlamps are
designed not to dazzle opposite driv‐
ers. So, you need not change your
headlamps in a country with oppo‐
site traffic direction.
