Are you looking to buy a new Kia with push button start? First off, great choice! The 2016 Kia Optima has been completely redesigned for the 2016 model year and push button start is infinitely more convenient than traditional ignition key start-ups. Here with our team at Frank Boucher Kia, you can see how push button start works with the Kia Optima and its benefits.
Having an Optima with push button start is extremely useful in all types of situations. If you are somebody who always loses your keys in your purse, the push button start system just requires your purse to be in the car. If you hate fishing your keys out of your pocket, again the system conveniently doesn’t require you to do so.
How do I turn on just the radio with push button start?
Having a 2016 Optima with push-button start, you can still use the same functions as if you just had an ignition key. Depending on the number of times you push the button you can turn on just the radio, the dash lights or turn on the vehicle. To turn on just the radio, press the Engine Start/Stop button once without applying the brake. To active the dash lights, press the button twice without brakes and one more push will turn everything off.
Which 2016 Optima trims come with push button start?
On the 2016 model of the Kia Optima, the push button start feature is standard on four out of five trim levels. The system comes with the LX 1.6T, EX, SX and SX Limited trims of the Optima, offering drivers superior convenience.
