When leaving keys with parking lot and
valet attendants, the following proce -
dures will ensure that your vehicle’s
glove box compartment can not be
opened in your absence.
1. Press and hold the release button (1)
and remove the mechanical key (2).
2. Close and then lock the glove box
using the mechanical key.
3. Leave the smart key with the atten -
dant. The glove box can not be
opened without the mechanical key.
Transmitter precautions
The smart key will not work if any of the
following occur:
僅 Another vehicle’s smart key is being
operated close to your vehicle.
僅 You exceed the operating distance
limit (about 10 m [30 feet]).
僅 The battery in the transmitter is weak.
僅 Other vehicles or objects may be
blocking the signal.
僅 The weather is extremely cold.
僅 The smart key is close to a radio
transmitter such as a radio station or
an airport which can interfere with
normal operation of the transmitter.
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 call, receiving
calls, text messaging, and/or sending/
receiving emails.
Avoid placing 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.
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, Kia recommends to
contact an authorised Kia dealer/service
partner.

ity to operate the equipment. If the key -
