(1) : It can be used when the ignitionswitch is in ACC or ON position.
(2), (3) : It can be used regardless of the ignition switch position.
Power outlet
The power outlets are designed to pro-
vide power for mobile telephones or
other devices designed to operate with
vehicle electrical systems. The devices
should draw less than 10 amps with the
engine running.
Digital clock
Whenever the battery terminals, related
fuses are disconnected, you must reset
the time.
When the ignition switch is in the ACC or
ON position, the clock buttons operate as
follows:
CAUTION
Use power outlet only when theengine is running and remove theaccessory plug after use. Usingthe accessory plug for prolonged periods of time with the engineoff could cause the battery to dis- charge.
Only use 12V electric accessories which are less than 10A in elec-tric capacity.
Adjust the air-conditioner or heater to the lowest operatinglevel when using the power outlet.
Close the cover when not in use. Some electronic devices can cause electronic interferencewhen plugged into a vehicle’spower outlet. These devices may cause excessive audio static andmalfunctions in other electronicsystems or devices used in your vehicle.

FUSES
A vehicle’s electrical system is protected
from electrical overload damage by
fuses.This vehicle has three fuse panels, one
located in the driver’s side panel bolster,
another in the cargo area, the other in
the engine compartment near the bat-
tery.
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.
Before replacing a blown fuse, discon-
nect the negative battery cable.
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.
Three kinds of fuses are used: blade type
for lower amperage rating and cartridgetype, fusible link for higher amperage rat-ings.

The actual fuse/relay panel label

WARNING - Fuse replace-
ment
Never replace a fuse with any-
thing but another fuse of the
same rating.
A higher capacity fuse could cause damage possibly a fire.
Never install a wire or aluminum foil instead of the proper fuse -
even as a temporary repair. It may
cause extensive wiring damage
and a possible fire.
CAUTION
Do not use a screwdriver or anyother metal object to remove fuses because it may cause a short circuitand damage the system.

CAUTION
After checking the fuse box in the engine compartment, securelyinstall the fuse box cover. If not, electrical failures may occur fromwater leaking in.
CAUTION
When replacing a blown fuse or relay with a new one, make surethe new fuse or relay fits tightlyinto the clips. The incomplete fas-tening fuse or relay may causethe vehicle wiring and electricsystems damage and a possiblefire.
Do not remove fuses, relays and terminals fastened with bolts ornuts. The fuses, relays and termi- nals may be fastened incomplete-ly, and it may cause a possiblefire. If fuses, relays and terminalsfastened with bolts or nuts areblown, consult with an authorizedKia dealer.
Do not input any other objects except fuses or relays intofuse/relay terminals such as adriver or wiring. It may cause con-tact failure and system malfunc- tion.

Maintenance
Inner panel
1. Turn the ignition switch and all otherswitches off.
2. Open the fuse panel cover. 3. Pull the suspected fuse straight out.
Use the removal tool provided on the
main fuse box in the engine compart-
ment.
4. Check the removed fuse; replace it if it is blown.
Spare fuses are provided in the main
fuse box in the engine compartment.
5. Push in a new fuse of the same rating, and make sure it fits tightly in the clips.
If it fits loosely, consult an Authorized Kia
Dealer.
If you do not have a spare, use a fuse of the same rating from a circuit you maynot need for operating the vehicle, suchas the cigar lighter fuse.
If the headlights or other electrical com-
ponents do not work and the fuses are
OK, check the fuse block in the engine
compartment. If a fuse is blown, it must
be replaced.
