Kia Sorento: Air ventilation seat: (if equipped)

The airflow intensity and cooling ventilation level for the seat cushion and backrest adjust smoothly according to the switch lever positions.

To activate forced air ventilation through your seat surface, press the control levers accordingly.

Each time you press the control lever, the operational airflow mode cycles in a continuous loop:

OFF > High > Medium > Low > OFF

To ensure energy efficiency upon vehicle entry, the seat ventilation and heating systems default to the OFF position whenever the ENGINE START/STOP ignition button is turned ON.

TIP: If the Idle Stop and Go (ISG) system temporarily shuts off the engine during a traffic stop, this function automatically manages the seat temperature settings (shifting from High to Low) to preserve comfortable cabin conditions in your Kia Sorento.

NOTE: Seat Protection Guidelines

• When cleaning the seats, avoid harsh organic solvents like paint thinner, benzene, alcohol, or gasoline, which can ruin the perforated upholstery and clog the ventilation blower channels.

• Do not place heavy or sharp objects on the seating surface that could crush or puncture the internal blower ducts.

• Take precautions to avoid spilling beverages or liquids onto the seats. If liquid is accidentally spilled, wipe the area completely dry with a clean towel before operating the air ventilation system.
