Closing the hood
1.Before closing the hood, check thefollowing:
partment must be correctly
installed.
bustible material must be
removed from the engine com-
partment.
2.Return the support rod to its clip to prevent it from rattling.
3.Lower the hood until it is about 30 cm (1 ft.) above the closed position
and let it drop. Make sure that it
locks into place.
WARNING
Before closing the hood,ensure that all obstructions
are removed from the hood
opening. Closing the hood
with an obstruction present in
the hood opening may result
in property damage or severe
personal injury.
Do not leave gloves, rags or any other combustible materi-
al in the engine compartment.
Doing so may cause a heat-
induced fire.
WARNING

latched before driving away. If
it is not latched, the hood
could open while the vehicle
is being driven, causing total
loss of visibility, which might
result in an accident.
The support rod must be inserted completely into the
hole provided whenever you
inspect the engine compart-
ment. This will prevent the
hood from falling and possi-
bly injuring you.

Electric power steering
Power steering uses the motor to
assist you in steering the vehicle. If
the engine is off or if the power steer-
ing system becomes inoperative, the
vehicle may still be steered, but it will
require increased steering effort.
The motor driven power steering is
controlled by the power steering con-
trol unit which senses the steering
wheel torque and vehicle speed to
command the motor.
The steering wheel becomes heavier
as the vehicle’s speed increases and
becomes lighter as the vehicle’s
speed decreases for better control of
the steering wheel.
Should you notice any change in the
effort required to steer during normal
vehicle operation, have the power
steering checked by an authorized
Kia dealer.
✽ ✽NOTICE
The following symptoms may occur
during normal vehicle operation:
• The EPS warning light does not
illuminate.
• The steering effort is high immedi- ately after turning the ignition
switch on. This happens as the sys-
tem performs the EPS system
diagnostics. When the diagnostics
is completed, the steering wheel
will return to its normal condition.
• A click noise may be heard from the EPS relay after the ignition
switch is turned to the ON or
LOCK position.
• Motor noise may be heard when the vehicle is at a stop or at a low
driving speed.
• The steering effort can suddenly increase, if the operation of the
EPS system is stopped to prevent
serious accidents when it detects
malfunction of the EPS system by
self-diagnosis. (Continued)(Continued)
• The steering effort increases if the
steering wheel is rotated continu-
ously when the vehicle is not in
motion. However, after a few min-
utes, it will return to its normal
conditions.
• When you operate the steering wheel in low temperature, abnor-
mal noise could occur. If tempera-
ture rises, the noise will disappear.
This is a normal condition.
STEERING WHEEL
CAUTION
If the EPS system does not
operate normally, the warninglight will illuminate on theinstrument cluster. The steeringwheel may become difficult tocontrol or operate abnormally.Take your vehicle to an author-ized Kia dealer and have thevehicle checked as soon aspossible.

release lever to lock the steering
wheel in place. Be sure to adjust the
steering wheel to the desired posi-
tion before driving.
✽ ✽
NOTICE

steering wheel. It is not a malfunc-
tion. This occurs when two gears
engage. In this case, adjust the steer-
ing wheel again and then lock the
steering wheel.
Heated steering wheel
(if equipped)
With the ENGINE START/STOP but-
ton in the ON position, pressing the
heated steering wheel button warms
the steering wheel. The indicator on
the button will illuminate.

the button once again. The indicator
on the button will turn off.
It will turn off automatically approxi-
mately 30 minutes after the heated
steering wheel is turned on.

You may lose steering control
and cause severe personal
injury, death or accidents.
