All Wheel Drive (AWD) Lock
AWD/ TERRAIN Mode helps the vehicle to maintain its best driving performance by controlling 4 wheels, engine, transmission and braking according to road conditions such as snow, mud, sand, etc.
You can switch from DRIVE MODE to TERRAIN Mode by pressing the DRIVE/TERRAIN mode button 
Then select one of the following:
DRIVE MODE is used when driving on roads in normal conditions, roads in urban areas, and on highways
MUD mode: MUD mode is used to ensure safe driving by appropriately distributing the vehicle’s traction forces when driving on muddy, unpaved or rough roads
SAND mode: SAND mode is used to ensure safe driving by appropriately distributing the vehicle’s traction forces when driving on sandy, graveled or unpaved off-roads
SNOW mode: SNOW mode is used to appropriately distribute the vehicle’s traction forces and prevent wheel slippage when driving on snowy or slippery road
When the TERRAIN mode is deactivated, a vibration may be felt as the traction forces on the front and rear wheels of the vehicle are released. This vibration is not a mechanical failure.
This feature may not be available on all Kia models.
Button configuration may vary. Images are for illustrative purposes only and may not reflect actual feature or operation.
For more information on driving modes, refer to the Owner’s Manual.
