Kia Cee'd: Engine start/stop button / Starting the engine

Kia Cee'd JD Owners Manual / Driving your vehicle / Engine start/stop button / Starting the engine

WARNING

Always wear appropriate shoes when operating your vehicle. Unsuitable shoes (high heels, ski boots,etc.) may interfere with your ability to use the brake and accelerator pedal.
Do not start the vehicle with the accelerator pedal depressed. The vehicle can move and lead to an accident.
Wait until the engine rpm is normal. The vehicle may suddenly move if the brake padel is released when the rpm is high.

✽ NOTICE - Kick down mechanism (if equipped)

If your vehicle is equipped with a kick down mechanism in the accelerator pedal, it prevents you from driving at full throttle unintentionally by making the driver require increased effort to depress the accelerator pedal. However, if you depress the pedal more than approximately 80%, the vehicle can be at full throttle and the accelerator pedal will be easier to depress. This is not a malfunction but a normal condition.
