How Does Kia Connected Services Work

Using WiFi on your smartphone, Kia Connected Services provides you with the most recent information on traffic warnings, speed cameras, areas of interest, and weather news. To connect your Kia vehicle to Kia Connected Services, go to settings > WiFi Settings and make sure WiFi is turned on. You’ll also need to set up a WiFi Hotspot on your smartphone. Select your mobile hotspot by clicking on the list of WiFi networks.

Once online, you will be able to see traffic information for your route, which will notify you of your estimated arrival time and any potential delays. Additionally, speed cameras will be visible on your navigation system, warning you of the speed limit and where it is. With only a few touches, points of interest is a useful addition that can provide you with quickly accessible information. For instance, if you type “restaurant” into the search bar, the algorithm will show you places around you. The newest addition to connected services, weather forecasts, provides precise weather information for the upcoming few days at your location. You can also conduct searches in other places, which is useful if you’re organizing a trip.
