1. 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 farther 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 supports 2D QR Code scanning
§Try another QR Code Reader app; not all apps are created equal
2. After scanning, you may experience a “connection error” message or a “connecting” message with no subsequent response. These messages typically
indicate that your device is having trouble connecting to the Internet
QUICK TIPS
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.

injury and death. The driver’s primary responsibility is in
the safe and legal operation of a vehicle, and 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.

REMINDERS:
• Check the recommended tire pressure label located on the left
side of the driver’s door jamb, visible when the door is opened.
• Consult your dealer for service if the 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 the
TPMS system, which may cause the Malfunction Warning
Indicator (Check Engine Light) to illuminate.

Low Tire Pressure
•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
approximately 20 minutes, and tires that are not hot in
temperature from direct sunlight or heat
•For proper maintenance and optimal fuel economy,
maintain the 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 TIPS

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 Ais 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.
Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)†26
Fuel Economy
Several factors contribute to your vehicle’s fuel economy, such as maintenance of your vehicle, driving style, environmental
conditions, vehicle weight and vehicle aerodynamics. Below are some tips on how to help improve fuel economy:

illuminate green.
If the LKA detects that you are moving outside of your lane, the system may give an audible warning
and display Lane Departure Warning on the instrument cluster. If the vehicle continues to move
outside of the lane, LKA may provide steering inputs, trying to prevent the vehicle from moving
outside its lane.
LKA is the operating mode by default when the Lane Safety/LKA button* Ais depressed to ON.
There are three available modes:
• Active LKA – Provides more frequent steering inputs than standard LKA
• Lane Keeping Assist – Guides driver to keep vehicle within lanes and provides steering inputs
when vehicle is about to deviate from the lane
• Lane Departure Warning – Alerts driver when the system detects the vehicle leaving the lane.
In this mode the system will not provide steering inputs
All systems will operate under the following conditions:
• The vehicle speed exceeds approximately 40 mph
• LKA recognizes both sides of the lane markers the vehicle is traveling in
• The vehicle is between the lane markers
When the front-view camera does not
detect the lane traveling in, the lanes
