• Hint: Use a descriptive title for your new message
    If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. In other words, "I need help with my SUV" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum. The "Lounge" is for introducing yourself. If you need help with your leather interior, please post in the Interior section - and so on...

I bought my 2020 Telluride last Wednesday and have gotten a couple warnings or error messages that say "VALET." I have searched for this and cannot find anything about this message but would appreciate any information that you may have about it. Also, I wondered if you have successfully used an inverter go from 12 volt DC to 110 volt AC? If you have, where did you buy it?

Search the forum for "valet alert" and you will find info on it.
 
The valet settings can be changed either by your phone or computer. You can create an account here:Kia Owners Portal. It will have a lot of info including the manuals in pdf versions. The section under my car zone will turn on and off the valet.

The dc to ac converter is on the sx, but I don't think it is on the lower versions. Any of the basic units from amazon will work. Remember drawing more then 6 amp through a DC plug on this car is asking for trouble.

Thanks so much. I know practically nothing about electrical matters so this really helps.
