Features of your vehicle
Power outlet
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 20
amps 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 peri-
ods of time with the engine off could
cause the battery to discharge.
Only use 12V electric accessories which are less than 20A 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 out-
let. These devices may cause
excessive audio static and malfunc-
tions in other electronic systems or
devices used in your vehicle.
Push the plug in as far as it will go. If good contact is not made, the
plug may overheat and the fuse
may open. Plug in battery equipped electronic
devices with reverse current pro-
tection. The current from the bat-
tery may flow into the vehicle’s
electri cal/electronic system and
cause system malfunction.
Refrain from using the heater or A/C if you need to use the multipur-
pose socket. If the heater or A/C
has to be used simultaneously,
have it to the lowest setting.
Some add-on electrical equipment will induce electromagnetic inter-
ference. This will lead to subse-
quent malfunction or hinder good
reception of the Audio/Video and
electrical system.
Always make sure that electric add-ons are fully plugged into the
multipurpose sockets.
Insecure contacts may lead to
electrical malfunctions.
When using the front power outlet, you can close the center console
cover after pulling out the wire
through the front corner of right
side of the console cover. (Car
charger & Cable is not provided
with your purchase.)

Be sure the exhaust system does
not leak.
The exhaust system should be
checked whenever the vehicle is
raised to change the oil or for any
other purpose. If you hear a change in
the sound of the exhaust or if you drive
over something that strikes the under-
neath side of the vehicle, have the
exhaust system checked as soon as
possible by an authorized K900 Kia

enclosed area for a prolonged
time. Exhaust fumes contain
carbon monoxide, a colorless,
odorless gas that can cause
unconsciousness and death by
asphyxiation.
WARNING- Open trunk
Do not drive with the trunk
open. Poisonous exhaust gases
can enter the passenger com-
partment. If you must drive with
the trunk open proceed as fol-
lows:
1. Close all windows.
2. Open side vents.
3. Set the air intake control at “Fresh”, the air flow control
at “Floor” or “Face” and the
fan at the highest speed.
