Electronic brake force distribution(EBD) systemwarning light
If two warning lights illuminate at the
same time while driving, your vehicle’s
ABS and EBD system may have mal-functioned.
In this case, your ABS and regular brake
system may not work normally. We rec-
ommend that the system be checked by
an authorized Kia dealer.
✽✽
NOTICE
If the ABS warning light or EBD warn- ing light is on and stays on, the
speedometer or odometer/tripmeter
may not work. Also, the EPS warninglight may illuminate and the steering
effort may increase or decrease. In this
case, we recommend that the system be
checked by an authorized Kia dealer.
ESC (Electronic Stability Control) indicator(if equipped)
The ESC indicator will illuminate when
the ignition switch is turned ON, but
should go off after approximately 3 sec-
onds. When the ESC is on, it monitors
the driving conditions. Under normal driv-
ing conditions, the ESC indicator will
remain off. When a slippery or low trac-tion condition is encountered, the ESC
will operate, and the ESC indicator will
blink to indicate the ESC is operating. But, if the ESC system malfunctions the
indicator illuminates and stays on. We
recommend that the system be checked
by an authorized Kia dealer.
ESC OFF indicator (if equipped)
The ESC OFF indicator will illuminate
when the ignition switch is turned ON,
but should go off after approximately 3
seconds. To switch to ESC OFF mode,
press the ESC OFF button. The ESCOFF indicator will illuminate indicating
the ESC is deactivated.
WARNING
If both ABS and Brake warning lights are on and stay on, your vehi-cle’s brake system will not worknormally. So you may experiencean unexpected and dangerous situ-ation during sudden braking. In thiscase, avoid high speed driving andabrupt braking. We recommend that the system be checked by an authorized Kia deal-er.

on the LCD display.
✽✽ NOTICE
When the engine automatically starts by
the ISG system, some warning lights
(ABS, ESC, ESC OFF, EPS or Parking
brake warning light) may turn on for afew seconds. This happens because of low batteryvoltage. It does not mean the system ismalfunctioning.

TPMS (Tire Pressure Monitoring
System) indicator (if equipped)
Low tire pressure telltale/ TPMS malfunction indicator
The low tire pressure telltale comes on
for 3 seconds after the ignition switch is
turned to the ON position.
The low tire pressure and position tell- tales illuminates when one or more of
your tires is significantly underinflated.
The TPMS malfunction indicator will illu-
minate after it blinks for approximately
one minute when there is a problem with
the Tire Pressure Monitoring System.
If this occurs, we recommend that the
system be checked by an authorized Kia
dealer.
For more details, refer to the TPMS in section 6.
The low tire pressure position telltale illu-
minates on the LCD display.
Engine oil pressure warn-ing
This warning light indicates the engine oil
pressure is low.
If the warning light illuminates while driv- ing:
1. Drive safely to the side of the road and stop.
2. With the engine off, check the engine oil level. If the level is low, add oil as required.
If the warning light remains on after
adding oil or if oil is not available, we rec-
ommend that you call an authorized Kia
dealer.
WARNING - Safe stopping
The TPMS cannot alert you to severe and sudden tire damage caused by external factors.
If you notice any vehicle instabili- ty, immediately take your foot offthe accelerator pedal, apply thebrakes gradually and with lightforce, and slowly move to a safeposition off the road.
CAUTION
If the engine does not stop immedi-
ately after the engine oil pressure
warning light is illuminated, severe damage could result.

Malfunction indicator lamp
(MIL) (check engine light)
This indicator light is part of the Engine
Control System which monitors various
emission control system components. If
this light illuminates while driving, it indi-
cates that a potential problem has been
detected somewhere in the emissioncontrol system.This light will also illuminate when the
ignition switch is turned to the ON posi-
tion, and will go out in a few seconds
after the engine is started. If it illuminates
while driving, or does not illuminate when
the ignition key is turned to the ON posi-
tion, we recommend that the system be
checked by an authorized Kia dealer.
Generally, your vehicle will continue to be
drivable, but we recommend that the sys-
tem be checked by an authorized Kia
dealer.
CAUTION
Prolonged driving with the EmissionControl System Malfunction
Indicator Light illuminated maycause damage to the emission con- trol systems which could effect dri-vability and/or fuel economy.
CAUTION - Gasoline engine
If the Emission Control SystemMalfunction Indicator Light illumi-nates, potential catalytic converterdamage is possible which could
result in loss of engine power. Werecommend that the system beinspected by an authorized Kia
dealer.
CAUTION - Diesel engine
(if equipped with DPF)
When the malfunction indicator light blinks, it may stop blinking
after driving the vehicle at more than 60km/h (37 mph) or at morethan second gear with 1500 ~ 2000engine rpm for a certain time (for
about 25 minutes).
If the malfunction indicator lightcontinues to blink in spite of the procedure, we recommend that the
system be checked by an author- ized Kia dealer.
If you continue to drive with themalfunction indicator light blinking
for a long time, the DPF system canbe damaged and fuel consumption can worsen.
CAUTION - Diesel engine
If the Emission Control SystemMalfunction Indicator Light blinks, some error related to the injectionquantity adjustment occurs which
could result in loss of enginepower, combustion noise and poor emission. We recommend that thesystem be inspected by an author-
ized Kia dealer.

Engine coolant tempera-ture warning light(if equipped)
The warning light illuminates if the tem-
perature of the engine coolant is above120±3°C (248±5.4°F).
Do not continue driving with an overheat-
ed engine. If your vehicle overheats, refer
to “Overheating” in section 6.
✽✽ NOTICE
If the engine coolant temperature warn- ing light illuminates, it indicates over-heating that may damage the engine.
Glow indicator (Diesel engine)
The indicator light illuminates when the
ignition switch is placed at the ON posi-
tion. The engine can be started after the
preheat indicator light goes off. The illu-
minating time varies with the water tem-
perature, air temperature and batterycondition.
✽✽ NOTICE
If the engine does not start within 10
seconds after the preheating is complet-
ed, turn the ignition key once more to
the LOCK/OFF position for 10 seconds,
and then to the ON position, in order to
preheat again.
Fuel filter warning light (Diesel engine)
This warning light illuminates for 3 sec-
onds after the ignition switch is set to the
ON position and then it will go out. If it
lights up while the engine is running, it
indicates that water has accumulated
inside the fuel filter. If this happens,
remove the water from the fuel filter.
For more details, refer to “Fuel filter” in section 7.
CAUTION
If the preheat indicator light contin-ues to illuminate or flash on and off after the engine has warmed up orwhile driving, we recommend that
the system be checked by an authorized Kia dealer.
CAUTION
When the fuel filter warning lightilluminates, engine power (vehiclespeed & idle speed) may decrease. If you keep driving with the warning
light on, you can damage your vehi-cle's engine parts and injection sys- tem of the Common Rail. If thisoccurs, we recommend that the
system be checked by an author-ized Kia dealer.
