Driving your vehicle
Shift lock system (if equipped)
For your safety, the Dual clutch trans-
mission has a shift lock system which
prevents shifting the transaxle from P
(Park) or N (Neutral) into R (Reverse)
unless the brake pedal is depressed.
To shift the transaxle from P (Park) or
N (Neutral) into R (Reverse):
1. Depress and hold the brake pedal.
2. Start the engine or turn the ignition
switch to the ON position.
3. Move the shift lever.
If the brake pedal is repeatedly
depressed and released with the shift
lever in the P (Park) position, a chat-
tering noise near the shift lever may
be heard. This is a normal condition.

WARNING
Always fully depress the brake
pedal before and while shifting
out of the P (Park) position into
another position to avoid inad-
vertent motion of the vehicle
which could injure persons in
or around the car.
Shift-lock override
If the shift lever cannot be moved from
the P (Park) or N (Neutral) position into
R (Reverse) position with the brake
pedal depressed, continue depressing
the brake, then do the following:
1. Press the shift-lock release button.
2. Move the shift lever.
3. We recommend that the system
be inspected by an authorized Kia
dealer.
