Seat back bolster control(For driver seat, if equipped)
1. Turn the adjustment switch clock- wise, the right/left seatback bol-
sters will be adjusted inward. Turn
the switch counterclockwise, the
seatback bolster will be adjusted
outward. 2. To adjust the bolster height to its
maximum in the default state,
operate the switch for 8 seconds.
After that, release the switch
because there is no change in
height even if you continue to
operate the switch.
3. Once adjustment is done, leave the switch in place.
Driver position memory system
(if equipped, for power seat)
Driver Position Memory System is
the facility that enables driver’s seat,
leg extension, steering wheel, exteri-
or mirrors, cluster and head-up dis-
play (HUD) to be controlled with a
simple button operation, which
allows a driver to recall memorized
driving positions and automatically
control them.
- Driver’s seat/Leg extension/SteeringWheel/Exterior mirrors: Location
- Cluster: Brightness of lighting
- Head Up Display (HUD): Height, rotation and brightness.

Features of your vehicle
Electric power steering (EPS)
The power steering uses a motor to
assist you in steering the vehicle. If
the engine is off or if the power steer-
ing system becomes inoperative, the
vehicle may still be steered, but it will
require increased steering effort.
The EPS is controlled by a power
steering control unit which senses
the steering wheel torque and vehi-
cle speed to command the motor.
The steering becomes heavier as the
vehicle’s speed increases and
becomes lighter as the vehicle’s
speed decreases for optimum steer-
ing control.
Should you notice any change in the
effort required to steer during normal
vehicle operation, have the power
steering checked by an authorized
Kia dealer. When you operate the steering
wheel in low temperature, noise
may occur. If temperature rises, the
noise will likely disappear. This is a
normal condition.
When the vehicle is stationary, and the steering wheel is turned all the
way to the left or right continuous-
ly, the steering wheel becomes
harder to turn. The power assist is
limited to protect the motor from
overheating.
As time passes, the steering wheel
will return to its normal condition.
✽ ✽ NOTICE
The following symptoms may occur
during normal vehicle operation:
• The EPS warning light does not
illuminate.
• The steering gets heavy immedi- ately after turning the ignition
switch on. This happens as the sys-
tem performs the EPS system
diagnostics. When the diagnostics
are completed, the steering wheel
will return to its normal condition.
• A click noise may be heard from the EPS relay after the Engine
Start/Stop button is turned to the
ON or OFF position.
• A motor noise may be heard when the vehicle is at a stop or at a low
driving speed.
• If the Electric Power Steering System does not operate normally,
the warning light will illuminate on
the instrument cluster. The power
steering system will not operate
and steering effort can increase.
Take your vehicle to an authorized
Kia dealer and have the vehicle
checked as soon as possible. (Continued)

• When the charging system warning
light comes on due to low voltage
(when the alternator or battery do
not operate normally or malfunc-
tion), the steering wheel may
require increased steering effort.Tilt and telescopic steering
Tilt and telescopic steering allows
you to adjust the steering wheel
before you drive. You can also raise it
to give your legs more room when
you exit and enter the vehicle.
The steering wheel should be posi-
tioned so that it is comfortable for
you to drive, while permitting you to
see the instrument panel warning
lights and gauges.
Manual type
To change the steering wheel angle,
pull down the lock-release lever (1),
adjust the steering wheel to the
desired angle (2) and height (3) then
pull up the lock-release lever to lock
(4) the steering wheel in place. Be
sure to adjust the steering wheel to
the desired position before driving.
✽ ✽ NOTICE
After adjustment, sometimes the
lock release lever may not lock the
steering wheel. It is not a malfunc-
tion. This occurs when two gears are
not engaged correctly. In this case,
adjust the steering wheel again and
then lock the steering wheel.

WARNING- Steering

Never adjust the angle and
height of the steering wheel
while driving. You may lose

Driving your vehicle
To turn off the engine, re-press the
engine start/stop button to the ON
position, press the [P] button, and
press the engine start/stop button to
the OFF position.
When either the driver's door or the
front passenger's door is opened
with the engine start/stop button in
the ACC position and the shift lever
in N (Neutral) position, the engine is
automatically turned OFF and the
transmission automatically changes
to the P (Park) position.D (Drive)
This is the normal driving position. The
transmission will automatically shift
through a 8-gear sequence, providing
the best fuel economy and power.
WARNING
To avoid inadvertent vehiclemovement, do not shift into
gear unless your foot is firmly
on the brake pedal.
D not permit your vehicle to idle in the N (Neutral) position
for an extended period of
time as this will preclude the
wheels and the transmission
from engaging. While parking
the vehicle with the engine
running, depress the brake
pedal, shift the vehicle to the
P (Park) position and apply
the parking brake.
Do not drive with the shift lever in N (Neutral). The
engine brake will not work
and may lead to an accident.

Driving your vehicle
Exercise extreme caution whendriving on a slippery surface. Be
especially careful when braking,
accelerating or shifting gears. On a
slippery surface, an abrupt change
in vehicle speed can cause the
drive wheels to lose traction and
may cause loss of vehicle control
resulting in an accident.
Optimum vehicle performance and economy is obtained by smoothly
depressing and releasing the
accelerator.
✽ ✽ NOTICE
Kia recommends you follow all post-
ed speed limits.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of SERIOUS
INJURY or DEATH:
ALWAYS wear your seatbelt.
In a collision, an unbelted
occupant is significantly more
likely to be seriously injured
or killed than a properly belt-
ed occupant.
Avoid high speeds when cor- nering or turning.
Do not make quick steering wheel movements, such as
sharp lane changes or fast,
sharp turns.
The risk of rollover is greatly increased if you lose control
of your vehicle at highway
speeds.
(Continued)
(Continued)
Loss of control often occurs iftwo or more wheels drop off
the roadway and the driver
over steers to reenter the
roadway.
In the event your vehicle leaves the roadway, do not
steer sharply. Instead, slow
down before pulling back into
the travel lanes.
Do not attempt sudden or abrupt driving maneuvers on
slippery surfaces. Attempting
such maneuvers can result in
loss of vehicle control and
accidents.

❈ If the front radar for smart cruise
system cannot operate normally,
the inter-vehicle distance and rela-
tive speed condition are automati-
cally ignored.
❈ The Eco-Coasting system works
after the engine is turned on, the
transmission is warmed up, and
the engine sensor selfdiagnosis is
completed after starting.
❈ Depending on the driving situa-
tion, Eco-Coasting operation may
be temporarily delayed even if the
above conditions are met.The Eco-Coasting system

The Eco-Coasting system will be
automatically released when the fol-
lowing conditions are met.
When the drive mode is COM-
FORT or SPORT mode.
In SMART mode, when driver acceleration is SMART COMFORT
or SMART SPORT.
When using the paddle shift of the steering wheel.
When the Cruise Control/Smart Cruise Control button is on (The /CRUISE indicator is on.).
When pressing the accelerator pedal or brake pedal.
When the vehicle speed is outside the rage of 55 km/h (34 mph) to

Driving your vehicle
Using All Wheel Drive (AWD)
The All Wheel Drive (AWD) System
delivers engine power to front and
rear wheels for maximum traction.
AWD is useful when extra traction is
required, such as when driving slip-
pery, muddy, wet, or snow-covered
roads.
If the system determines there is a
need for four wheel drive, the
engine's driving power is distributed
to all four wheels automatically.
ALL WHEEL DRIVE (AWD) (IF EQUIPPED)
WARNING
If the AWD warning light ( )
stays on the instrument cluster,
your vehicle may have a mal-
function with the AWD system.
When the AWD warning light
( ) illuminates we recom-
mend that the vehicle be
checked by an authorized Kia
dealer as soon as possible.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of SERIOUS
INJURY or DEATH:
Do not drive in conditions thatexceed the vehicle's intended
design such as challenging
off-road conditions.
