Driving while distracted can result in a loss of vehicle control
that may lead to an accident, severe personal injury and
death. The driver’s primary responsibility is in the safe and
legal operation of a vehicle, and any handheld devices, other
equipment or vehicle systems which take the driver’s eyes,
attention and focus away from the safe operation of a vehicle
or that are not permissible by law should never be used during
operation of the vehicle.

QR CODE
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 smartphone/tablet (mobile devices) or by
visiting the following website: www.youtube.com/KiaFeatureVideos. Continue reading for a more
in-depth look at QR Codes and for instructions on how to use them.
What are QR Codes?
A QR Code is a square, 2-dimensional barcode that can be
read by mobile devices loaded with an appropriate barcode
or QR Code Reader App. The app reads the barcode image
and then launches/uploads the specific information the
code contains, such as URLs, text, photos, videos and so
much more.
How to Use QR Codes
If you have a mobile device with a QR Code Reader App, you
can snap the code with your phone and you’ll be provided a
video with additional information pertaining to the topic. For
example, in the Fuel Cap section, if you would like additional
information, just snap the code with your mobile device to
view the selected Kia Features & Functions Video.
How to Snap a QR Code
1. With your mobile device, download a QR Code Reader
App. With many devices, you can do this through an app
store or marketplace
2. Open the QR Code Reader App on your mobile device
3. 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
•Avoid scanning from a significant angle
•Confirm that the device’s app supports 2D QR Code scanning
•Try another QR Code Reader App; not all apps are created equal
REMINDER: When accessing videos
on your mobile device, standard
cellular data rates may apply.

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 Ashowing which tire(s) 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 jam,
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.
