Driving your vehicle
• After parking the vehicle, check to
be sure the parking brake is not
engaged and that the parking
brake indicator light is out before
driving away.
• Driving through water may get the
brakes wet. They can also get wet
when the car is washed. Wet
brakes can be dangerous! Your car
will not stop as quickly if the brakes
are wet. Wet brakes may cause the
car to pull to one side.
To dry the brakes, apply the brakes
lightly until the braking action returns
to normal, taking care to keep the
car under control at all times. If the
braking action does not return to
normal, stop as soon as it is safe to
do so and have your vehicle inspect-
ed by a professional workshop.
Kia recommends to call an autho-
rised Kia dealer/service partner.
• Don't coast down hills with the car
out of gear. This is extremely haz-
ardous. Keep the car in gear at all
times, use the brakes to slow
down, then shift to a lower gear so
that engine braking will help you
maintain a safe speed.
• Don't "ride" the brake pedal.
Resting your foot on the brake
pedal whilst driving can be danger-
ous because it can result in the
brakes overheating and losing their
effectiveness. It also increases the
wear of the brake components.
• If a tyre goes flat whilst you are
driving, apply the brakes gently
and keep the car pointed straight
ahead whilst you slow down. When
you are moving slowly enough for it
to be safe to do so, pull off the road
and stop in a safe place.
• Be cautious when parking on a hill.
Firmly engage the parking brake
and place the shift lever in P (Park).
If your car is facing downhill, turn
the front wheels into the kerb to
help keep the car from rolling. If
your car is facing uphill, turn the
front wheels away from the kerb to
help keep the car from rolling. If
there is no kerb or if it is required by
other conditions to keep the car
from rolling, block the wheels.
• Under some conditions your park-
ing brake can freeze in the
engaged position. This is most like-
ly to happen when there is an accu-
mulation of snow or ice around or
near the rear brakes or if the brakes
are wet. If there is a risk that the
parking brake may freeze, apply it
only temporarily whilst you put the
shift lever in P (Park) and block the
rear wheels so the car cannot roll.
Then release the parking brake.
• Do not hold the vehicle on the
upgrade with the accelerator
pedal. This can cause the transaxle
to overheat. Always use the brake
pedal or parking brake.
