Features of your vehicle
- 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 cor-
rectly, open and close the door with the
mechanical key. If you have a problem
with the smart key, contact an autho-
rized Kia dealer.
僅 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 calls, receiv-
ing calls, text messaging, and/or
sending/receiving emails. Avoid plac-
ing 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.
僅 Do not leave the smart key near
metallic objects such as golf bags,
metal cases and so on.
僅 Door Lock/Unlock failure or poor
starting can occur when the smart key
is placed near metallic objects.
僅 Always carry your smart key when
you leave the car. An unattended
smart key close to the vehicle can
cause the vehicle battery to be dis-
charged.
僅 Internal circuit damage may occur
when the key comes into contact with
moisture (beverage, water etc.) or
heat. Damage to the smart key due to
exposure to liquids or heat is not cov-
ered by the manufacturer's vehicle
warranty.
CAUTION

Keep the smart key away from water or
