same rating.
• A higher capacity fus e could
caus e damage and possibly a
fire.
• Never install a wire instead of the proper fuse - even as a temporary
repair. It may caus e extensive
wiring damage and possibly a
fire.
• Do not use a screwdriver or any other metal object to remove
fuses because it may cause a
short circuit and damage the sys-
tem.

located in the driver's side knee bolster,
the other in the engine compartment
near the battery.

sories, or controls do not work, check the
appropriate circuit fuse. If a fuse has
blown, the element inside the fuse will be
melted.
If the electrical system does not work,
first check the driver’s side fuse panel.
Always replace a blown fuse with one of
the same rating.
If the replacement fuse blows, this indi-
cates an electrical problem. Avoid using
the system involved and immediately
consult an Authorized Kia Dealer.Fuse replacement
