Smart key precautions

NOTICE
• If, for some reason, you happen
to lose your smart key, you will
not be able to start the engine.
Tow the vehicle, if necessary,
contact a professional workshop.
Kia recommends to contact an
authorized Kia dealer/service
partner.
• A maximum of 2 smart keys
can be registered to a single
vehicle. If you lose a smart key,
Kia recommends to contact an
authorized Kia dealer/service
partner.
• The smart key will not work if any
of the following occurs:
- The smart key is close to a radio
transmitter such as a radio
station or an airport which can
interfere with normal operation
of the smart key.
- The smart key is near a mobile
two-way radio system or a
cellular phone.
- Another vehicle's smart key is
being operated close to your
vehicle.
When the smart key does not
work properly, open and close
the door with the mechanical
key. If you have a problem with
the smart key, Kia recommends
to contact an authorized Kia
dealer/service partner.
• If the smart key is in close
proximity to your cell phone or
smart phone, the signal from
the smart key could be blocked
by normal operation of your
cell phone or smart phone. This
is especially important when
the phone is active such as
making call, receiving calls, text
messaging, and/or sending/
receiving emails. Avoid placing the
smart key and your cell phone or
smart phone in the same pants
or jacket pocket and maintain
adequate distance between the
two devices.
CAUTION
Keep the smart key away from
water or any liquid. If the keyless
entry system is inoperative due
to exposure to water or liquids,
it will not be covered by your
manufacturer's vehicle warranty.
