VIDEOS & QR CODES - SMART PHONES, TABLETS AND COMPUTERS

Kia provides a number of video resources at your disposal to assist you with becoming familiar with the features and functions found in your Kia vehicle. You can access these resources by snapping the QR codes with your smart phone/tablet (mobile devices) or by visiting the following website: www.KuTechVideos.com/xm13/2013. Continue reading for a more in-depth look at QR codes and for instructions on how to use them.

What are QR Codes?

A QR Code is a square, 2-dimensional Bar Code that can be read by mobile devices loaded with an appropriate Bar Code or QR Code Reader App. The App reads the Bar Code image and then launches/uploads the speciﬁc information the code contains, such as URLs, text, photos, videos, and so much more.

How to Use QR Codes

If you have a mobile device with a QR Code Reader App, you can snap the code with your phone and you’ll be provided a video with additional information pertaining to the topic. For example, in the Kia One Click Fuel Cap section, if you would like additional information, just snap the code with your mobile device to view the selected Kia Features & Functions Video.

QUICK TIPS

1. If you’re having trouble scanning codes, check the following:

• The code should be centered and focused in your mobile device’s camera screen

• Consider moving your device closer to or farther away from the code

• The code should be well lit, without signiﬁcant shadow

• Avoid scanning from a signiﬁcant angle

• Conﬁrm that the device’s app supports 2D QR Code Scanning.

Try another QR Code App; not all apps are created equal

2. After scanning, a “connecting” message appears and then nothing happens or there’s a “connection error” message. These messages typically indicate that your device is having trouble connecting to the Internet

How to snap a QR code

1. With your mobile device, download a QR Code Reader App. With many devices, you can do this through an App Store or Marketplace

2. Open the QR Code Reader App on your mobile device

3. The App will utilize your device’s camera. Center the code in the camera viewing area:

• With some Apps, as soon as the App recognizes the code, it will launch the corresponding video

• With other Apps, you will have to snap or “take a picture” of the code. The app will then launch the corresponding video

• For operation speciﬁcs, refer to the instructions that come with the QR Code Reader App
