Maintenance for a used vehicle
Purchasing a used vehicle
If any of the digital key devices (such as a smartphone key or card key, if equipped) are registered in the vehicle, the message Digital key(s) active will appear on the instrument cluster once when you turn on the vehicle after unlocking the door.
When purchasing a used car, be sure to check the message and delete the smartphone key and card key (if equipped) registered by the previous user. Notify an authorized Kia dealer when you purchase a used vehicle. Check if the digital key (card key) that came with the used vehicle operates properly. If it does not work properly, delete it and register the smartphone key. Then reregister the card key.
