ELECTRICAL CIRCUIT PROTECTION
Fuses
A vehicle’s electrical system is pro-
tected from electrical overload dam-
age by fuses.This vehicle has two fuse panels,
one located in the driver's side knee
bolster, the other in the engine com-
partment near the battery.
If any of your vehicle’s lights, acces-
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
indicates an electrical problem. Avoid
using the system involved and imme-
diately consult an Authorized Kia
Dealer.
Three kinds of fuses are used: blade
type for lower amperage rating, car-
tridge type, and fusible link for high-
er amperage ratings.
