Dynamic Bending Light (DBL)
(if equipped)
Dynamic Bending Light (DBL) uses
the steering angle and vehicle
speed, to keep your field of vision
wide by swiveling and leveling the
headlamp.
Change the switch to the AUTO posi-
tion when the engine is running. The
Dynamic Bending Light (DBL) sys-
tem will operate when the headlamp
is ON. To turn off the DBL, change
the switch to other positions. After
turning the DBL off, headlamp
swiveling no longer occurs, but level-
ing operates continuously. If the DBL malfunction indicator
comes on, the DBL is not working
properly. Drive to the nearest safe
location and restart the engine. If the
indicator continuously remains on,
have the system checked by an
authorized Kia dealer.

system checks for the smart key. If
the smart key is not in the vehicle,
a message "key is not in the vehi-
cle" will appear on the LCD display.
And if all doors are closed, the

For safe all wheel drive opera-
tion
✽ ✽
NOTICE- All wheel drive
The road conditions that demand all
wheel drive mean all functions of
your vehicle are exposed to extreme
stress than under normal road con-
ditions. Slow down and be ready for
changes in the composition and trac-
tion of the surface under your tires.
If you have any doubt about the
safety of the conditions you are fac-
ing, stop and consider the best way
to proceed. Do not exceed the ability
of yourself or your vehicle to operate
safely.
Do not try to drive in deep standing
water or mud since such conditions
can stall your engine and clog your
exhaust pipes. Do not drive down
steep hills since it requires extreme
skill to maintain control of the vehicle. When you are driving up or down
hills drive as straight as possible.
Use extreme caution in going up or
down steep hills, since you may flip
your vehicle over depending on the
grade, terrain and water/mud con-
ditions.
WARNING - Hills
Driving across the contour of
steep hills can be extremely
dangerous. This danger can
come from slight changes in the
wheel angle which can destabi-
lize the vehicle or, even if the
vehicle is maintaining stability
under power, it can lose that
stability if the vehicle stops its
forward motion. Your vehicle
may roll over without warning
and without time for you to cor-
rect a mistake that could cause
serious injury or death.
