Driving your vehicle Dual clutch transmission (DCT)
With the shift lever in the manual
mode
Pull the [+] or [-] paddle shifter once to
shift up or down one gear.
If you pull the [+] and [-] paddle shifters
at the same time, you cannot shift the
gear.
Shift-lock system
For your safety, the Dual clutch trans
-
mission has a shift-lock system which
prevents shifting the transmission from
P (Park) into R (Reverse) unless the
brake pedal is depressed.
To shift the transmission from P (Park)
into R (Reverse):
1. Depress and hold the brake pedal.
2. Start the engine or turn the ignition
switch to the ON position.
3. Move the shift lever.
If the brake pedal is repeatedly
depressed and released with the shift
lever in the P (Park) position, a chatter
-
ing noise & vibration near the shift lever
may be heard. This is a normal condi
-
tion.
Always fully depress the brake pedal
before and while shifting out of the P
(Park) position into another position to
avoid inadvertent motion of the vehicle
which could injure persons in or around
the vehicle.
Shift-lock override
If the shift lever cannot be moved from
the P (Park) position into R (Reverse)
position with the brake pedal depressed,
continue depressing the brake, and then
do the following:
1. Place the ENGINE START/STOP but
-
ton in the OFF position.
2. Apply the parking brake.
3. Carefully remove the cap covering (1)
the shift-lock release access hole.
4. Insert a tool (e.g., flathead screw
-
driver) into the access hole and press
down on the tool.
5. Move the shift lever.
6. Remove the tool from the shift-lock
override access hole then install the
cap.
If the shift lever does not move even
after performing this procedure, have
the system inspected by an authorized
Kia dealer.
Good driving practices
僅 Never move the shift lever from P
(Park) or N (Neutral) to any other
position with the accelerator pedal
depressed.
僅 Never move the shift lever into P
(Park) when the vehicle is in motion.
