僅 Running out of fuel can expose vehi-
cle occupants to danger. You must
stop and obtain additional fuel as
soon as possible after a low fuel warn-
ing light ( ) appears or when the
gauge indicator comes close to the "E"
level.
CAUTION
僅 For full LCD type cluster (Type B), the
information is displayed after getting
information from a weather informa-
tion provider via GPS. Depending on
conditions of GPS reception, the infor-
mation may be different from the cur-
rent weather in your area. If no
information is received via GPS (e.g.,
not subscribed to Kia Connect ser-
vice), the weather and time will be dis-
played as 'sunny' and 'night' on the
cluster.
僅 Be careful whilst driving as dynamic
themed animation effects can distract
the driver and lead to unexpected
accidents.
僅 Do not operate the engine within the
tachometer's red zone. This may
cause severe engine damage.
僅 If the gauge pointer moves beyond
the normal range area toward the "H"
position, it indicates overheating that
may damage the engine. Do not con-
tinue driving with an overheated
engine. If your vehicle overheats, refer
to "If the engine overheats" on page 8-

the battery power has been inter-
rupted, the distance to empty function
may not operate correctly.

from the actual driving distance as it
is an estimate of the available driving
distance.

additional fuel if less than 6 litres (1.6
gallons) of fuel are added to the vehi-
cle.
