To shift the transmission from P (Park) into R (Reverse):

1. Press and hold the brake pedal.

2. Start the engine or place the ENGINE START/STOP button in the ON position.

3. Move the shift lever.

If the brake pedal is repeatedly engaged and released with the shift lever in the P (Park) position, a chattering noise near the shift lever may be heard. This is a normal condition.

WARNING

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.

If the shift lever cannot be moved from the P (Park) position into the R (Reverse) position with the brake pedal engaged, continue engaging the brake, then do the following:

1. Place the ENGINE START/STOP button in the OFF position.

2. Apply the parking brake.

3. Carefully remove the cap covering the shift-lock release access hole.

4. Insert a tool (e.g., flathead screwdriver) 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 your vehicle inspected by an authorized Kia dealer immediately.
