Description and operation
Mounted inside the Manifold Absolute Pressure Sensor, Intake Air Temperature
Sensor (IATS) detects the intake air temperature.
To precisely calculate the amount of air, correction of the air temperature is
required as the air density varies with the temperature. So the ECM uses not only
MAPS signal but also IATS signal. This sensor has a Negative Temperature Coefficient
(NTC) thermistor with resistance in reverse proportion to the temperature.

Kia Stinger (CK) 2018-2023 Service Manual: Windshield wipers
Operates as follows when the ignition switch is turned ON.
MIST : For a single wiping cycle, move the lever to this (MIST) position and
release it. The wipers will operate continuously if the lever is held in this position.
OFF : Wiper is not in operation
INT : Wiper operates intermittently at the same wiping intervals. Use this mode
in light rain or mist.
Kia Stinger (CK) 2018-2023 Service Manual: Immobilizer system
Your vehicle is equipped with an electronic engine immobilizer system to reduce
the risk of unauthorized vehicle use.
Whenever the ENGINE START/STOP button is changed to the ON position, the immobilizer
system checks and verifies if the key is valid or not.
If the key is valid, the engine will start.
If the key is invalid, the engine will not start.
