VIDEOS AND QR CODES
Kia provides a number of video resources to assist you with becoming familiar with the features and functions found in your Kia vehicle. You can access these resources by snapping the QR Codes with your mobile device using the built-in QR Code Reader or a downloaded QR Code Reader App.
After opening the QR Code Reader App on your mobile device, the app will utilize your device’s camera. Center the code in the camera viewing area — with some apps, as soon as the app recognizes the code, it will launch the corresponding video.
With other apps, you will have to snap or “take a picture” of the code. The app will then launch the corresponding video.
For operation specifics, refer to the instructions that come with the QR Code Reader App. You can also view the videos by visiting the following website: www.youtube.com/KiaFeatureVideos

If you’re having trouble scanning codes, check the following:
•
The code should be centered and focused in your mobile device’s camera screen
•
Consider moving your device closer to or far ther away from the code
•
The code should be well lit, without significant shadow
•Avoid scanning from a significant angle
•
Confirm that the device’s app suppor ts 2D QR Code scanning
•
Tr y another QR Code Reader App; not all apps are created equal

After scanning, you may experience a “connection error ” message or a “connecting” message with no subsequent response. These messages t ypically indicate that your device is having trouble connecting to the Internet

The TPMS indicator functions as both the Low Tire Pressure Light and the TPMS Malfunction Indicator .
The TPMS indicator is designed to 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 Low Tire Pressure Position Indicator A is displayed on the LCD screen in the Instrument Cluster when the tire(s) is underinflated . Inflate the tire(s) to specifications using an accurate tire pressure gauge to turn
off the Low Tire Pressure Indicator . See the front driver ’s door jamb for PSI specifications .
When there is a problem with the TPMS, the TPMS Malfunction Indicator will blink for approximately one minute and then illuminate . See the 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 sit ting for 3 hours or more, 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

Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist (BCA)†4
REMINDERS:
•
BCA will not issue a warning if the vehicle speed is 6 mph or more above the surrounding vehicles
•
When BCA is ON and the ignition is cycled, BCA returns to its previous state

BCA uses rear corner radar sensors in the rear bumper to monitor and warn the driver in certain situations if it detects an
approaching vehicle in the driver ’s blind spot area and before changing lanes . Initially, BCA provides Blind-Spot Collision Warning
(BCW) when it detects a potential collision with a vehicle, emitting an audible warning and visual alert on the outside rearview
mirrors . If the system detects that the collision risk has increased, Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist (BCA) automatically applies
the opposite side front brake to try and mitigate a potential collision .
1st-stage warning: When another vehicle is detected within BCW warning boundary A, an indicator
will illuminate on the outside rearview mirrors B .
2nd-stage warning: When 1st stage warning is on and the driver activates a turn signal, a flashing
yellow indicator will illuminate on the outside rearview mirrors and the system will sound a warning .
3rd-stage: When 1st stage warning is on and the 2nd stage warning has already occurred, and the
collision risk has increased, braking is applied to the opposite side front wheel and a visual warning occurs .
BCW User Settings:
•To turn BCA on, go to the User Settings menu in the Instrument Cluster, press the Mode
button C on the Steering Wheel when the vehicle is at a standstill, gear shift in Park and
with the ignition switch or the Engine Start/Stop button* in the ON position, and select User
Settings . Press the Move (OK) button D up/down and select Driver Assistance, Blind-Spot
Safety and then press the OK button D
•
Some models access settings through the Vehicle Settings in the audio head unit . Press the Setup

Electronic Stability Control (ESC) and temporarily apply braking power
– Warning Only: Vehicle will provide a warning only (audible & visual)
– Off: System is off, no warnings provided
•
To set the initial warning activation time, go to User Settings , then Driver
Assistance, Warning Time and press the OK button D . Adjust the warning timing:
– Early: Maximizes the amount of distance between the vehicles before the initial
warning occurs
- Normal: This setting allows for a nominal amount of distance between the
vehicles before the initial warning occurs
– Late: Reduces the amount of distance between the vehicles before the
initial warning occurs
