What to do in an emergency

Jump starting procedure

Absorbent Glass Matt (AGM) batteries

are maintenance-free and should only be

serviced by an authorized Kia dealer. For

charging your AGM battery, use only fully

automatic battery chargers that are spe-

cially developed for AGM batteries.

When replacing the AGM battery, use

only the Kia genuine battery for the ISG

system.

✽✽

NOTICE

If the AGM battery is reconnected or

replaced, ISG function will not operate

immediately.

If you want to use the ISG function, the

battery sensor needs to be calibrated for

approximately 4 hours with the ignition

off and then, turn the engine on and off

2 or 3 times.

1. Make sure the booster battery is 12-

volt and that its negative terminal is

grounded.

2. If the booster battery is in another

vehicle, do not allow the vehicles to

touch.

3.Turn off all unnecessary electrical

loads.

4. Connect the jumper cables in the exact

sequence shown in the illustration.

First connect one end of a jumper

cable to the positive terminal of the

discharged battery (1), then connect

the other end to the positive terminal

on the booster battery (2).

Proceed to connect one end of the

other jumper cable to the negative ter-

minal of the booster battery (3), then

the other end to a solid, stationary,

metallic point (for example, the engine

lifting bracket) away from the battery

(4). Do not connect it to or near any

part that moves when the engine is

cranked.

Do not allow the jumper cables to con-

tact anything except the correct battery

terminals or the correct ground. Do not

lean over the battery when making

connections.

5. Start the engine of the vehicle with the

booster battery and let it run at 2,000

rpm, then start the engine of the vehi-

cle with the discharged battery.

If the cause of your battery discharging is

not apparent, you should have your vehi-

cle checked by an authorized Kia dealer.

CAUTION - Battery cables

Do not connect the jumper cable

from the negative terminal of the

booster battery to the negative ter-

minal of the discharged battery.

This can cause the discharged bat-

tery to overheat and crack, releas-

ing battery acid.

CAUTION - AGM battery

cap

Do not open or remove the cap on

top of the battery. This may cause

the leak of dangerous internal elec-

trolytes.
