text, photos, videos and so much more .

you can snap the code with your phone and you’ll be
provided a video with additional information pertaining
to the topic . For example, in the Fuel Cap section, if
you would like additional information, just snap the
code with your mobile device to view the selected Kia
Features & Functions Video .
How to snap a QR Code
1 . With your mobile device, download a QR Code
Reader App . With many devices, you can do this
through an app store or marketplace
2 . Open the QR Code Reader App on your mobile device
3 . The app will utilize your device’s camera . Center the
code in the camera viewing area:
•
With some apps, as soon as the app recognizes
the code, it will launch the corresponding video
•
With other apps, you will have to snap or take a
picture of the code . The app will then launch the
corresponding video
•
For operation specifics, refer to the instructions
that come with the QR Code Reader App
