WelcometotheKiaFamily!
Your new Kia vehicle has been designed, engineered and manufactured to provide you with years
of comfortable and dependable driving. Kia is committed to quality, innovation, safety and — above
all — your satisfaction.
UsingthisFeatures&FunctionsGuide
The information contained in this guide is a brief overview of the operation and features of your new
Kia vehicle.
This Features & Functions Guide and the speci󲛵c operational and safety information it provides
are not a substitute for your Owner’s Manual. In the interest of your safety and that of the vehicle’s
occupants, and to help you avoid risks that may result in death or serious injury, Kia reminds you to
carefully read the Owner’s Manual in order to fully familiarize yourself with the important information
and safety warnings it contains.
While Kia endeavors to ensure that the information contained in this guide is accurate at the time
of printing, Kia may change vehicle speci󲛵cations without notice in advance of or after the fact and
assumes no liability in connection with such changes.
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 speci󲛵cs, refer to the instructions that come with the QR
Code Reader App. You can also view the videos by visiting the following

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 signi󲛵cant
shadow
•Avoid scanning from a signi󲛵cant angle
• Con󲛵rm that the device’s app supports 2D QR Code
scanning
• Try 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 typically
indicate that your device is having trouble connecting
to the Internet

REMINDERS:
• Check the recommended tire pressure label located on the
left side of driver’s door jamb, visible when the door is open
• Consult your dealer for service if the Low Tire Pressure Light
remains illuminated after in󲛶ating 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
•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, safety and optimal fuel
economy, maintain recommended tire in󲛶ation
pressure 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 in󲛶ation pressure during warm
weather

vehicle is traveling slower than 40 mph or when the system does not detect
the lane markers When the system detects the lane markers and can assist
the steering, the LKA icon will illuminate green
If 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
