With a smart key, you can lock or
unlock a door and even start the
engine without inserting the key.
The functions of the buttons on a
smart key are similar to the remote
keyless entry. (Refer to the “Remote
keyless entry” in this chapter.)
Smart key functions
Carrying the smart key, you may lock
and unlock the vehicle doors. Also,
you may start the engine. Refer to
the following, for more details.
Locking
Pressing the button of the front out-
side door handles with all doors
closed and any door unlocked, locks
all the doors (and hood, trunk).
The hazard warning lights will blink
once to indicate that all doors are
locked. The button will only operate
when the smart key is within 0.7 ~
1m (28 ~ 40 in.) from the outside
door handle. If you want to make
sure that a door has locked or not,
you should check the door lock but-
ton inside the vehicle or pull the out-
side door handle.

Remote keyless entry system
operationsLock (1)
All doors are locked if the lock button
is pressed. If all doors are closed, the
hazard warning lights will blink and
the chime will sound once to indicate

Also, if the lock button is pressed
once more within 4 seconds, the
hazard warning lights will blink and
the chime will sound once to confirm
that the door is locked.
However, if any door remains open,
the hazard warning lights (and/or the
chime) will not operate. But if all
doors are closed after the lock button
is pressed, the hazard warning lights
will blink once.
Unlock (2)
The driver's door is unlocked if the
unlock button is pressed once. The
hazard warning lights will blink twice
and the chime will sound twice to
indicate that the driver’s door is
unlocked.

button is pressed once more within 4
seconds. The hazard warning lights
will blink (for smart key, the chime
also sounds) twice again to indicate

pressing this button, the doors will
lock automatically unless you open

switch.
You exceed the operating distance limit (about 30 m [90 feet]).
The battery in the transmitter (or smart key) is weak.
Other vehicles or objects may be blocking the signal.
The weather is extremely cold.
The transmitter (or smart key) is close to a radio transmitter such as
a radio station or an airport which
can interfere with normal operation
of the transmitter.

does not work properly, open and
close the door with the ignition key. If
you have a problem with the trans-
mitter (or smart key), contact an
authorized Kia dealer.

If the transmitter is in close proximi-
ty to your cell phone or smart phone,
the signal from the transmitter could
be blocked by normal operation of
your cell phone or smart phone. This
is especially important when the
phone is active such as making
calls, receiving calls, text messag-
ing, and/or sending/receiving
emails. Avoid placing the transmitter
and your cell phone or smart phone
in the same pants or jacket pocket
and maintain adequate distance
between the two devices. This device complies with
Industry Canada licence-exempt
RSS standard(s).
Operation is subject to the following
two conditions:
(1) This device may not cause inter-
ference, and
(2) This device must accept any
interference, including interfer-
ence that may cause undesired
operation of the device.
✽ ✽ NOTICE
Changes or modifications not
expressly approved by the party
responsible for compliance could void
the user’s authority to operate the
equipment. If the keyless entry sys-
tem is inoperative due to changes or
modifications not expressly approved
by the party responsible for compli-
ance, it will not be covered by your
manufacturer’s vehicle warranty.
Battery replacement
A battery should last for several years,
but if the transmitter or smart key is
not working properly, try replacing the
battery with a new one. If you are
unsure how to use or replace the bat-
tery, contact an authorized Kia dealer.
