a radio station or an airport which
can interfere with normal operation
of the transmitter.
When the transmitter (or smart key)
does not work properly, open and
close the door with the ignition key. If
you have a problem with the trans-
mitter (or smart key), contact an
authorized Kia dealer. If the transmitter (or smart key) is
in close proximity to your cell
phone or smart phone, the signal
from the transmitter (or smart key)
could be blocked by normal opera-
tion of your cell phone or smart
phone. This is especially important
when the phone is active such as
making calls, receiving calls, text
messaging, and/or sending/receiv-
ing emails.
Avoid placing the transmitter (or
smart key) and your cell phone or
smart phone in the same pants or

quate distance between the two
