STEERING WHEEL

Power steering (if equipped)
Power steering uses energy from the engine to assist you in steering the vehicle. If the engine is off or if the power steering system becomes inoperative, the vehicle may still be steered, but it will require increased steering effort.
Should you notice any change in the effort required to steer during normal vehicle operation, have the power steering checked by an authorized Kia dealer.

CAUTION
Power steering pump
Never hold the steering wheel to the extreme right or left for more than 5 seconds with the engine running. Holding the steering wheel for more than 5 seconds in either position may cause dam-age to the power steering pump.

If the power steering drive belt breaks or if the power steering pump malfunctions, the steering effort will greatly increase.

NOTICE

• If the vehicle is parked for extended periods outside in cold weather (below 14°F/-10°C), the power steering may require increased effort when the engine is first started. This is caused by increased fluid viscosity due to the cold weather and does not indicate a malfunction.
  When this happens, increase the engine RPM by depressing the accelerator until the RPM reaches 1,500 rpm then release or let the engine idle for two or three minutes to warm up the fluid.

Electric power steering (if equipped)
Power steering uses the motor to assist you in steering the vehicle. If the engine is off or if the power steer-ing system becomes inoperative, the vehicle may still be steered, but it will require increased steering effort.
The motor driven power steering is controlled by the power steering con-trol unit which senses the steering wheel torque and vehicle speed to command the motor.
The steering wheel becomes heavier as the vehicle’s speed increases and becomes lighter as the vehicle’s speed decreases for better control of the steering wheel.
Should you notice any change in the effort required to steer during normal vehicle operation, have the power steering checked by an authorized Kia dealer.

NOTICE
The following symptoms may occur during normal vehicle operation:

• The EPS warning light does not illuminate.
  The steering gets heavy immediately after turning the ignition switch on. This happens as the system performs the EPS system diagnostics. When the diagnostics are completed, the steering wheel will return to its normal condition.
  A click noise may be heard from the EPS relay after the ignition switch is turned to the ON or LOCK position.
  Motor noise may be heard when the vehicle is at a stop or at a low driving speed.
  The steering effort increases if the steering wheel is rotated continuously when the vehicle is not in motion. However, after a few minutes, it will return to its normal conditions.
  When you operate the steering wheel in low temperature, abnormal noise could occur. If temperature rises, the noise will disappear. This is a normal condition.

If the Electric Power Steering System does not operate normally, the warn-ing light will illuminate on the instrument cluster. The steering wheel may become difficult to control or operate abnormally. Take your vehicle to an authorized Kia dealer and have the vehicle checked as soon as possible.

Tilt and telescopic steering
Tilt and telescopic steering allows you to adjust the steering wheel before you drive.You can also raise it to give your legs more room when you exit and enter the vehicle.
The steering wheel should be positioned so that it is comfortable for you to drive, while permitting you to see the instrument panel warning lights and gauges.

WARNING
Never adjust the angle of the steering wheel while driving. You may lose steering control and cause severe personal injury, death or accidents.

To change the steering wheel angle, pull down the lock-release lever (1), adjust the steering wheel to the desired angle (2) and height (3) then pull up the lock-release lever (4) to lock the steering wheel in place. Be sure to adjust the steering wheel to the desired position before driving.

Heated steering wheel (if equipped)

With the ignition switch in the ON position, pressing the heated steer-ing wheel button warms the steering wheel. The indicator on the button will illuminate and notify you on the LCD display.
To turn the heated steering wheel off, press the button once again. The indicator on the button will turn off and notify you on the LCD display.

The heated steering wheel will turn off automatically approximately 30 minutes after the heated steering wheel is turned on.
If you turn off the engine within 30 minutes while the heated steering wheel is ON, the heated steering wheel will turn on automatically when you set the ignition switch in the ON position.

WARNING
If the steering wheel becomes too warm, turn the system off. The heated steering wheel may cause burns even at low temperatures, especially if used for long periods of time.

CAUTION
Do not install any grip or accessory to operate the steering wheel. This causes damage to the heated steering wheel system.

Horn

HomeLink® Wireless Control System
Your new mirror comes with an integrated HomeLink Universal Transceiver, which allows you to pro-gram the mirror to activate your garage door(s), estate gate, home lighting, etc. The mirror actually learns the codes from your various existing transmitters.

Retain the original transmitter for future programming procedures (i.e., new vehicle purchase). It is also suggested that upon the sale of the vehicle, the programmed HomeLink but-tons be erased for security purposes.
Programming
Your vehicle may require the ignition switch to be turned to the ACC position for programming and/or operation of HomeLink. It is also recommended that a new battery be replaced in the hand-held transmitter of the device being programmed to HomeLink for quicker training and accurate transmission of the radio-frequency.
Follow these steps to train your HomeLink mirror:

1. When programming the buttons for the first time, press and hold the left and center buttons ( , ) simultaneously until the indicator light begins to flash after approximately 20 seconds. (This procedure erases the factory-set default codes. Do not perform this step when programming the additional HomeLink buttons.)
   NOTICE
   For non rolling code garage door openers, follow steps 2 – 3.
   For rolling code garage door openers, follow steps 2 – 6.
   For Canadian Programming, please follow the Canadian Programming section.
   For help with determining whether your garage door opener is non-rolling code or rolling code, please refer to the garage door openers owner’s manual or contact HomeLink customer service at 1-800-355-3515.
   
2. Press and hold the button on the HomeLink system you wish to train and the button on the transmitter while the transmitter is approximately 2-8 cm (1 to 3 inches) away from the mirror. Do not release the buttons until step 3 has been completed.
3. The HomeLink indicator light will flash, first slowly and then rapidly. When the indicator light flashes rapidly, both buttons may be released. (The rapid flashing light indicates successful programming of the new frequency signal.)
   NOTICE
   Some gate and garage door openers may require you to replace step #3 with the “cycling” procedure noted in the “Canadian Programming” section of this document.
4. Rolling code programming
   To train a garage door opener (or other rolling code equipped devices) with the rolling code feature, follow these instructions after completing the “Programming” portion of this text. (A second person may make the following training procedures quicker & easier.)
5. Locate the “learn” or “smart” but-ton on the device’s motor head unit. Exact location and color of the button may vary by product brand. If there is difficulty locating the “learn” or “smart” button, reference the device’s owner’s manual or contact HomeLink at 1-800-
   355- 3515 or on the internet at www.homelink.com.
   5. Press and release the “learn” or “smart” button on the device’s motor head unit. You have 30 seconds to complete step number 6.
6. Return to the vehicle and firmly press and release the programmed HomeLink button up to three times. The rolling code equipped device should now recognize the HomeLink signal and activate when the HomeLink but-ton is pressed. The remaining two buttons may now be programmed if this has not previously been done. Refer to the “Programming” portion of this text.

Erasing programmed HomeLink buttons

To erase the three programmed but-tons (individual buttons cannot be erased):

• Press and hold the left and center buttons simultaneously, until the indicator light begins to flash (approximately 20 seconds).
  Release both buttons. Do not hold for longer than 30 seconds.

PARKING DISTANCE WARNING-REVERSE (IF EQUIPPED)

The parking distance warning-reverse assists the driver during backward movement of the vehicle by chiming if any object is sensed within a distance of 47 in. (120 cm) behind the vehicle.
This system is a supplemental system and it is not intended to nor does it replace the need for extreme care and attention of the driver. The sensing range and objects detectable by the back sensors are limited. Whenever backing-up, pay as much attention to what is behind you as you would in a vehicle without a parking distance warning-reverse.

WARNING

• Parking distance warning- reverse
  Never rely solely on the parking distance warning-reverse. Always perform a visual inspection to make sure the vehicle is clear of all obstructions before moving the vehicle in any direction. Stop immediately if you are aware of a child anywhere near your vehicle. Some objects may not be detected by the sensors, due to the object’s size or material.

Operation of the parking distance warning-reverse
Operating condition

• This system will activate when the indicator on the rear parking assist OFF button is not illuminated. If you desire to deactivate the park-ing distance warning-reverse, press the rear parking assist OFF button again. (The indicator on the button will illuminate.) To turn the system on, press the button again.(The indicator on the button will go off.)
  This system will activate when backing up with the ignition switch ON.
  If the vehicle is moving at a speed over 3 mph (5 km/h), the system may not be activated correctly.
  The sensing distance while the back-up warning system is in operation is approximately 47 in. (120 cm) at the rear bumper center area, 23.5 in. (60 cm) at the rear bumper both side area.
  When more than two objects are sensed at the same time, the closest one will be recognized first.

Types of warning sound

• When an object is 47 in. to 24 in.(120 cm to 61 cm) from the rear bumper: Buzzer beeps intermittently.
  When an object is 24 in. to 12 in.(60 cm to 31 cm) from the rear bumper: Buzzer beeps more frequently.
  When an object is within 12 in. (30
  cm) of the rear bumper : Buzzer sounds continuously.

Non-operational conditions of parking distance warning-reverse
The parking distance warning-reverse may not operate properly when:

1.  Moisture is frozen to the sensor. (It will operate normally when the moisture has been cleared.)
2. The sensor is covered with foreign matter, such as snow or water, or the sensor cover is blocked. (It will operate normally when the material is removed or the sensor is no longer blocked.)
3. Driving on uneven road surfaces (unpaved roads, gravel, bumps, gradient).
4. Objects generating excessive noise (vehicle horns, loud motor-cycle engines, or truck air brakes) are within range of the sensor.
5. The weather conditions produce heavy rain or water spray.
6. Wireless transmitters or mobile phones are within range of the sensor.
7. The sensor is covered with snow.
8. Trailer towing

The detecting range may decrease when:

1. The sensor is stained with foreign matter such as snow or water.(The sensing range will return to normal when removed.)
2. Outside air temperature is extremely hot or cold.

The following objects may not be recognized by the sensor:

1. Sharp or slim objects such as ropes, chains or small poles.
2. Objects which tend to absorb the sensor frequency such as clothes, spongy material or snow.
3. Undetectable objects smaller than 40 in. (1 m) in height and narrower than 6 in. (14 cm) in diameter.

Parking distance warning-reverse precautions

• The parking distance warning-reverse may not sound consistently depending on the speed and shapes of the objects detected.
  The parking distance warning-reverse may malfunction if the vehicle bumper height or sensor installation has been modified or dam-aged. Any non-factory installed equipment or accessories may also interfere with the sensor performance.
  The sensor may not recognize objects less than 15 in. (40 cm) from the sensor, or it may sense an incorrect distance. Use caution.
  When the sensor is frozen or covered with snow, dirt, or water, the sensor may be inoperative until the material is removed using a soft cloth.
  Do not push, scratch or strike the sensor. Sensor damage could occur.

NOTICE
This system can only sense objects within the range and location of the sensors. It cannot detect objects in other areas where sensors are not installed. Also, small or slim objects, such as poles or objects located between sensors may not be detected by the sensors.
Always visually check behind the vehicle when backing up.
Be sure to inform any drivers of the vehicle that may be unfamiliar with the system regarding the systems capabilities and limitations.

Self-diagnosis
If you don’t hear an audible warning sound or if the buzzer sounds intermittently when shifting the gear to the R (Reverse) position, this may indicate a malfunction in the parking distance warning-reverse. If this occurs, have your vehicle checked by an authorized Kia dealer as soon as possible.

NOTICE
Your new vehicle warranty does not cover any accidents or damage to the vehicle or injuries to its occupants due to a parking distance warning-reverse malfunction. Always drive safely and cautiously.
