NOTICE

• If the vehicle is not on level ground or

the battery power has been interrupt-
ed, the “Distance to empty” function
may not operate correctly.
The trip computer may not register
additional fuel if less than 6 liters (1.6
gallons) of fuel are added to the vehi-
cle.

• The fuel consumption and distance to

empty values may vary significantly
based on driving conditions, driving
habits, and condition of the vehicle.

• The distance to empty value is an esti-

mate of the available driving distance.
This value may differ from the actual
driving distance available.

Warnings and indicators

All warning lights are checked by turning
the ignition switch ON (do not start the
engine). Any light that does not illuminate
should be checked by an authorized KIA
dealer.
After starting the engine, check to make
sure that all warning lights are off. If any
are still on, this indicates a situation that
needs attention. When releasing the
parking brake, the brake system warning
light should go off. The fuel warning light
will stay on if the fuel level is low.

ECOMINDER

TM

indicator

(if equipped)

The ECOMINDER

TM

indicator is a system

that informs you to drive economically.
It is displayed if you drive fuel efficiently
to help you improve fuel efficiency.
• The ECOMINDER

TM

indicator will turn

the ECO light green on the instrument
panel when you drive fuel efficiently in
the ECO ON mode. If you don't want
the indicator displayed, you can turn
the ECO ON mode to OFF mode by
pressing the RESET button for more
than 1 second.

• When the instant fuel consumption

mode(if equipped) is displayed on the
LCD display or the system is not work-
ing properly, the indicator turns off. If
the indicator turns off when the instant
fuel consumption mode is not selected,
have the system checked by an author-
ized KIA dealer as soon as possible.

• The fuel efficiency depends on the dri-

ver's driving habit and road condition.

• The system stops operating when the

transmission is in the P (Park), R
(Reverse), N (Neutral) position, sports
mode, or when the instant fuel con-
sumption mode is selected.
