i
Thank you for choosing a Kia vehicle.
When you require service, remember that your dealer
knows your vehicle best. Your dealer has factory-trained
technicians, recommended special tools, genuine Kia
replacement parts and is dedicated to your complete sat-
isfaction.
Because subsequent owners require this important infor-
mation as well, this publication should remain with the
vehicle if it is sold.
This manual will familiarize you with operational, main-
tenance and safety information about your new vehicle. It
is supplemented by a Warranty and Consumer
Information manual that provides important information
on all warranties regarding your vehicle. If your vehicle
is equipped with an audio system, you will also have a
Kia Integrated Audio System manual explaining its oper-
ation. We urge you to read these publications carefully
and follow the recommendations to help assure enjoyable
and safe operation of your new vehicle.
Kia offers a great variety of options, components and fea-
tures for its various models.
Therefore, the equipment described in this manual, along
with the various illustrations, may not all be applicable to
your particular vehicle. The information and specifications provided in this man-
ual were accurate at the time of printing. Kia reserves the
right to discontinue or change specifications or design at
any time without notice and without incurring any obli-
gation. If you have questions, always check with your
Kia Dealer.
We assure you of our continuing interest in your motor-
ing pleasure and satisfaction in your Kia vehicle.
