To reset the navigation system in the Kia Sportage, press and hold the FM and map buttons at the same time for about 25 seconds until it restarts. The navigation system in the car relies on GPS (Global Positioning System) to pinpoint your location and show it on the digital screen inside the vehicle. While the accuracy of the location displayed by the navigation system may vary, it offers a close estimation of your position on the map and guides you to your desired destination. Additionally, the navigation system can help you choose the optimal route from one point to another. It is necessary to have an internet connection to download and utilize the required maps, but you can also keep the internet connected to download maps on the move.
To reboot the Kia Sportage GPS system, press and hold the FM and Map buttons together for about 20 seconds until it restarts.
How about the 2013 Sportage setup?
Completely worthless piece of junk! I can't input a destination because it only lets me use 2 letters instead of numbers. Spent an hour trying to update the software on my SD card today and got nowhere. Now I'm on this forum and they're suggesting this "hold the fm and radio button for 25 secs" nonsense! The developers of this unusable crap should be held underwater for an hour instead... that would actually be a better solution!
My GPS speed indicator has not been functioning properly ever since the recent update.
Why does my GPS not recognize the highways when I am trying to plan a route?
