Transmitter precautions
The transmitter (or smart key) will not
work if any of following occurs:
 The ignition key is in the ignitionswitch.
 You exceed the operating distance limit (about 90 feet [30 m]).
 The battery in the transmitter (or smart key) is weak.
 Other vehicles or objects may be blocking the signal.
 The weather is extremely cold.
 The transmitter (or smart key) is close to a radio transmitter such as
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
jacket pocket and maintain ade-
quate distance between the two
devices.
