Dual Clutch Transmission (DCT)*
Some Kia vehicles are equipped with Dual Clutch Transmission (DCT) for automatic transmissions. 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, an amber warning light* will be displayed in the instrument cluster. Should this condition occur, pull over and place the vehicle in Park and idle the engine.
Refer to section 5 in the Owner ’s Manual for additional information on DCT operation or call Kia Consumer Affairs for additional information.
•With the seat warmer switch in the ON position, the heating system in the seat turns OFF or ON automatically depending on the seat temperature
•System is OFF by default. To turn system ON again, press the Heated Steering Wheel but ton
•When the Climate Control System’s temperature is turned up to high heat, the Seat Warmers turn on automatically
QUICK TIPSREMINDER: Use extreme caution when using the seat warmers to avoid burns. Refer to the Owner ’s Manual for more information.
