Transmitter precautions
The transmitter will not work if anyof following occur:
- The ignition key is in the ignitionswitch.
- You exceed the operating dis- tance limit (about 10 m [30 feet]).
- The battery in the transmitter is weak.
- Other vehicles or objects may be blocking the signal.
- The weather is extremely cold.
- The transmitter is close to a radio transmitter such as a radio sub-
station or an airport which can
interfere with normal operation of
the transmitter. When the transmitter does not work
correctly, open and close the door
with the ignition key. If you have a
problem with the transmitter, con-
tact an authorized Kia dealer.
If the transmitter is in close proxim- ity to your mobile phone, the signal
could be blocked by your mobile
phones normal operational signals.
This is especially important when
the phone is active such as making
and receiving calls, text messag-
ing, and/or sending/receiving
emails. Avoid placing the transmit-
ter and your mobile phone in the
same pants or jacket pocket and
always try to maintain an adequate
distance between the two devices.
✽ ✽ NOTICE
If the keyless entry system is inoper-
ative due to exposure to water or liq-
uids, it will not be covered by your
manufacturer’s vehicle warranty.
CAUTION
Keep the transmitter away from
water or any liquid as it canbecome damaged and not func-tion properly.

Smart key precautions
The smart key will not work if anyof the following occur:
- The smart key is close to a radio transmitter such as a radio sta-
tion or an airport which can inter-
fere with normal operation of the
smart key.
- The smart key is near a mobile two way radio system or a cellu-
lar phone.
- Another vehicle’s smart key is being operated close to your
vehicle.
When the smart key does not work correctly, open and close the door
with the mechanical key and contact
an authorized Kia dealer. If the smart key is in close proximity
to your cell phone or smart phone,
the signal from the smart key 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
a call, receiving calls, text messag-
ing, and/or sending/receiving
emails. Avoid placing the smart key
and your cell phone or smart phone
in the same pants or jacket pocket
and maintain adequate distance
between the two devices.
Do not leave the smart key near metallic objects such as golf bags,
metal cases and so on.
Door Lock/Unlock failure or poor starting can occur when the smart
key is placed near metallic objects.
Always carry your smart key when you leave the car. An unattended
smart key close to the vehicle can
cause the vehicle battery to be dis-
charged. Internal circuit damage may occur
when the key comes into contact
with moisture (beverage, water etc.)
or heat. Damage to the smart key
due to exposure to liquids or heat is
not covered by the manufacturer's
vehicle warranty.
CAUTION - Transmitter
Keep the transmitter away fromwater or any liquid as it canbecome damaged and not func-tion properly.

Detecting area
The Smart Liftgate operates with a
welcome alert if the smart key is
detected within 50 ~ 100 cm (20 ~
40 inches) from the liftgate.
The alert stops at once if the smart key is positioned outside the
detecting area during the Detect
and Alert stage.
✽ ✽ NOTICE
• The Smart Liftgate function will
not work if any of the following
occurs:
- The smart key is close to a radiotransmitter such as a radio sta-
tion or an airport which can
interfere with normal operation
of the transmitter.
- The smart key is near a mobile two way radio system or a cellu-
lar phone.
- Another vehicle’s smart key is being operated close to your
vehicle.
• The detecting range may decrease or increase when :
- One side of the tire is raised toreplace a tire or to inspect the
vehicle.
- The vehicle is parked on a slope or unpaved road, etc.

There are some conditions that can
cause changes to the vehicle mag-
nets, such as installing a ski rack or
a CB antenna. Body repair work on
the vehicle can also cause changes
to the vehicle's magnetic field. In
these situations, the compass will
need to be re-calibrated to quickly
correct for these changes. To re-cali-
brate the compass:
1. Press and hold the button formore than 6 seconds. When the
compass memory is cleared, a "C"
will appear in the display.
2. To calibrate the compass, drive the vehicle in 2 complete circles at
less than 8 km/h (5 mph). Integrated HomeLink®Wireless
Control System
The HomeLink
®Wireless Control
System provides a convenient way to
replace up to three hand-held radio-
frequency (RF) transmitters with a
single built-in device. This innovative
feature will learn the radio frequency
codes of most current transmitters to
operate devices such as gate opera-
tors, garage door openers, entry
door locks, security systems, even
home lighting. Both standard and
rolling code-equipped transmitters
can be programmed by following the
outlined procedures. Additional

Programming HomeLink®
✽ ✽
NOTICE
• When programming a garage
door opener, it is advised to park
the vehicle outside of the garage.
• It is recommended that a new bat- tery be placed in the hand-held
transmitter of the device being pro-
grammed to HomeLink
®for quick-
er training and accurate transmis-
sion of the radio-frequency signal.
• Some vehicles may require the igni- tion switch to be turned to the sec-
ond position for programming
and/or operation of HomeLink
®.
• In the event that there are still pro- gramming difficulties or questions
after following the programming
steps listed below, contact
HomeLink
®at: www.homelink.com
or 1-800-355-3515.
Standard programming
To train most devices, follow these
instructions:
1. For first-time programming, press
and hold the two outside buttons,
HomeLink
®Channel 1 and
Channel 3 Buttons, until the indi-
cator light begins to flash (after 20
seconds). Release both buttons.
Do not hold the buttons for longer
than 30 seconds.
2. Position the end of your hand-held transmitter 2-8 cm (1-3 inches)
away from the HomeLink
®buttons
while keeping the indicator light in
view.
3. Simultaneously press and hold both the HomeLink
®and hand-
held transmitter button. DO NOT
release the buttons until step 4
has been completed.
4. While continuing to hold the but- tons the red Indicator Status LED
will flash slowly and then rapidly
after HomeLink
®successfully
trains to the frequency signal from
the hand-held transmitter. Release
both buttons. 5. Press and hold the just-trained
HomeLink
®button and observe
the red Status Indicator LED. If the
indicator light stays on constantly,
programming is complete and
your device should activate when
the HomeLink
® button is pressed
and released.
6. To program the remaining two HomeLink
® buttons, follow steps 2
through 5.

How Vehicle Radio Works
FM reception
AM and FM radio signals are broad-
cast from transmitter towers located
around your city. They are intercept-
ed by the radio antenna on your vehi-
cle. This signal is then processed by
the radio and sent to your vehicle
speakers.
However, in some cases the signal
coming to your vehicle may not be
strong and clear. This can be due to factors, such as
the distance from the radio station,
closeness of other strong radio sta-
tions or the presence of buildings,
bridges or other large obstructions in
the area.

AM reception
AM broadcasts can be received at
greater distances than FM broad-
casts. This is because AM radio
waves are transmitted at low fre-
quencies. These long distance,low
frequency radio waves can follow the
curvature of the earth rather than
travelling straight. In addition, they
curve around obstructions resulting
in better signal coverage.
FM radio station
FM broadcasts are transmitted at
high frequencies and do not bend to
follow the earth's surface. Because
of this, FM broadcasts generally
begin to fade within short distances
from the station. Also, FM signals are
easily affected by buildings, moun-
tains, and obstructions. This can lead
to undesirable or unpleasant listen-
ing conditions which might lead you
to believe a problem exists with your
radio. The following conditions are
normal and do not indicate radio
trouble: Fading - As your vehicle moves
away from the radio station, the
signal will weaken and sound will
begin to fade. When this occurs,
we suggest that you select another
station with a stronger signal.
Flutter/Static - Weak FM signals or large obstructions between the
transmitter and your radio can dis-
turb the signal causing static or
fluttering noises to occur. Reducing
the treble level may lessen this
effect until the disturbance clears.
