Kia Stinger CK: Smart key fu0nctions / Smart key precautions

• If you lose your smart key, you will not be able to start the engine. Tow the vehicle, if necessary, and contact an authorized Kia dealer.
• A maximum of 2 smart keys can be registered to a single vehicle. If you lose a smart key, you should immediately take the vehicle and key to your authorized Kia dealer to protect it from potential theft.
• The smart key will not work if any of following occurs:
  - 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 smart key.
  - The smart key is near a mobile two way radio system or a cellular phone.
  - Another vehicle’s smart key is being operated close to your vehicle.
  If the smart key does not work correctly, you may lock and unlock the door with the mechanical key. If you have a problem with the smart key, contact an authorized Kia dealer.
• 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 calls, 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.
• Do not leave the smart key near metallic objects such as golf bags, metal cases and so on.
• Door Lock/Unlock failure or poor starting can occur when the smart key is placed near metallic objects.
• Always carry your smart key when you leave the car. An unattended smart key close to the vehicle can cause the vehicle battery to be discharged.
• Internal circuit damage may occur when the key comes into contact with moisture (beverage, water etc.) or heat. In this case, warranty repair is not available. Damage to the smart key due to exposure to liquids or heat is not covered by the manufacturer's vehicle warranty.
• When the smart key is left with a bunch of keys, the Lock/Unlock button for doors and liftgate can be accidently pressed. Pay careful attention to key use.

CAUTION - Transmitter

Keep the smart key away from water or any liquid as it can become damaged and not function properly.
