Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)†21
The TPMS indicator functions as both Low Tire Pressure Light
and TPMS Malfunction Indicator. The indicator will illuminate
if it detects one or more tires is significantly underinflated, the vehicle has
a spare tire installed without TPMS or the outside temperature becomes
significantly lower.
The LCD screen in the instrument cluster will display the Low Tire Pressure
indicator A showing which tires are underinflated. Inflate tire(s) to
specifications using an accurate digital tire pressure gauge to turn off Low
Tire Pressure Light . See front driver’s door jamb for PSI specification.
When there is a problem with the TPMS, the TPMS Malfunction Indicator
will blink for approximately one minute then illuminate – See dealer
for service.
•Even with TPMS, tire pressure should be checked manually at least once a month. Only adjust tire pressure on “cold tires” that have been sitting for 20 minutes, and tires that are not hot in temperature from direct sunlight or heat
•For proper maintenance and optimal fuel economy, maintain recommended tire inflation pressures and stay within the load limits and weight distribution recommended for your vehicle
•In winter or cold weather, the TPMS light may illuminate if the tire pressure was adjusted to the recommended tire inflation pressure during warm weather
QUICK TIP
REMINDERS:
• Check the recommended tire pressure label located on the left side of driver's door jamb, visible when the door is open
• Consult your dealer for service if Low Tire Pressure Light remains illuminated after inflating your tire(s)
Personal electronic devices (such as laptops, wireless chargers, remote start systems, etc.) may interfere with TPMS system, which may cause the Malfunction Warning Indicator (Check Engine Light) to illuminate.
For more information, refer to section 6 of the Owner’s Manual.

Electronic Stability Control (ESC)†7
The ESC system is designed to help stabilize the vehicle during certain cornering
maneuvers. It is a good idea to keep the ESC turned ON whenever possible.
Press ESC OFF button B to disable Traction Control in ESC (ESC OFF indicator
will illuminate).
To turn both Traction Control and Stability Control†7 off, press and hold ESC OFF
button B (ESC OFF indicator will illuminate, and an alert sounds).
REMINDERS:
•ESC is active by default at vehicle startup
•
The ESC Indicator Light in the instrument cluster will illuminate whenever the ESC is in operation
Refer to section 5 in the Owner’s Manual for more information.
HAC does not replace the need to apply brakes while the vehicle is stopped on an incline.
Refer to section 5 in the Owner’s Manual for more information.

Instrument Cluster Control
Press switch A up or down to adjust display brightness of the instrument
panel illumination.
REMINDERS:
• The dimmer does not change brightness when lights are turned off
• The dimmer does not adjust brightness on the audio system screens; use the system’s setup menu to adjust brightness on the screens
Hill-Start Assist Control (HAC)†7
HAC is designed to help prevent the vehicle from rolling
backward when accelerating from a stop while on a steep
incline.
HAC automatically activates whether the ESC is OFF or ON but
does NOT activate when the ESC has malfunctioned.
REMINDERS:
•
HAC does not operate when the gear shift is in the P (Park) or the N (Neutral) position
•In the event of HAC system malfunction, see Authorized Kia Dealer for service
•
•When HAC is active (e.g., accelerating from a stop on an incline), you may notice that the brakes will momentarily remain engaged after you depress the accelerator. This is normal HAC operation
•HAC provides a 2-second delay before the vehicle may start rolling backward

Dual Clutch Transmission
The Dual Clutch Transmission (DCT ) gives the driving feel of a manual transmission, yet provides
the ease of a fully automatic transmission.
The following are unique driving tips for the Dual Clutch Transmission:
– To hold the vehicle stationary on an incline, the service brake or parking brake MUST be used
or the gear shift MUST be in the (P) Park position. If the vehicle is held stationary by applying
the accelerator pedal on a slope, the clutch/transmission may overheat, resulting in damage
– Avoid aggressive launches on steep grades as this may result in an overheated clutch and
transmission
– A slight time lag may be experienced at takeoff from standstill during aggressive acceleration
maneuvers
– If the clutch is overheating, the first warning, an amber-colored warning light ,
will be displayed in the instrument cluster. When indicator turns red, reduce speed, pull
over and place the vehicle in Park until it cools
Refer to the Owner’s Manual for additional information on DCT operation or call Kia Consumer Affairs for additional information.
REMINDER: When in Manual mode, pulling the left and right paddle shifters at the same time will NOT shift gears.
Paddle Shifters*
Paddle Shifters are operable when the shift lever is moved into the left gate of the D position (manual sport mode).
Paddle Shifting: Pull the [+] or
[-] paddle shifter once to shift
up or down one gear.
