FUSES
A vehicle’s electrical system is protected
from electrical overload damage by
fuses. This vehicle has 2 (or 3) fuse panels, one
located in the driver’s side panel bolster,
the other in the engine compartment
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 bemelted.
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.
Before replacing a blown fuse, disconnect
the negative battery cable.
If the replacement fuse blows, this indi-
cates an electrical problem. Avoid using
the system involved and we recommend
that you consult an authorised Kia deal-
er.
Three kinds of fuses are used: blade type
for lower amperage rating, cartridge type
and multi fuse for higher amperage rat- ings.
✽✽ NOTICE
According to electronics option of vehi-
cle, some fuse and relays written in bomlabel could not be applied.
✽
✽ NOTICE
The actual fuse/relay panel label may
differ from equipped items.

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 and 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 any
other metal object to remove fuses because it may cause a short circuitand damage the system.

LIGHT BULBS
Use only the bulbs of the specifiedwattage.
✽✽ NOTICE
After heavy, driving rain or washing, headlight and taillight lenses could
appear frosty. This condition is caused by
the temperature difference between the
lamp inside and outside. This is similar
to the condensation on your windows
inside your vehicle during the rain and
doesn’t indicate a problem with your
vehicle. If the water leaks into the lamp
bulb circuitry, we recommend that thesystem be checked by an authorised Kia
dealer.

* The actual lamp in the vehicle may differ from the illustration.
WARNING - Working on
the lights
Prior to working on the light, firmly
apply the parking brake, ensure
that the ignition switch is turned tothe LOCK position and turn off the
lights to avoid sudden movement
of the vehicle and burning your fin-
gers or receiving an electric shock.
CAUTION
Be sure to replace the burned-out bulb with one of the same wattagerating. Otherwise, it may cause
damage to the fuse or electricwiring system.
CAUTION
If you don’t have necessary tools,the correct bulbs and the expertise,
we recommend that you consult anauthorised Kia dealer. In many cases, it is difficult to replace vehi-cle light bulbs because other parts
of the vehicle must be removedbefore you can get to the bulb. This is especially true if you have to
remove the headlight assembly to
get to the bulb(s). Removing/installingthe headlight assembly
can result in damage to the vehicle.OYN079027

WARNING - Halogen bulbs
 Halogen bulbs contain pressur-
ized gas that will produce flying
pieces of glass if broken.
 Always handle them carefully, and avoid scratches and abra-
sions. If the bulbs are lit, avoid
contact with liquids. Never touchthe glass with bare hands.
Residual oil may cause the bulb
to overheat and burst when lit. A
bulb should be operated onlywhen installed in a headlight.

APPEARANCE CARE
Exterior care
Exterior general caution
It is very important to follow the label
directions when using any chemical
cleaner or polish. Read all warning andcaution statements that appear on thelabel.
Finish maintenance
Washing
To help protect your vehicle’s finish from
rust and deterioration, wash it thoroughlyand frequently at least once a month with
lukewarm or cold water.
If you use your vehicle for off-road driv-
ing, you should wash it after each off-
road trip. Pay special attention to the
removal of any accumulation of salt, dirt,
mud, and other foreign materials. Make
sure the drain holes in the lower edges of
the doors and rocker panels are keptclear and clean.
Insects, tar, tree sap, bird droppings,
industrial pollution and similar deposits
can damage your vehicle’s finish if not
removed immediately.
Even prompt washing with plain water
may not completely remove all these
deposits. A mild soap, safe for use on
painted surfaces, may be used. After washing, rinse the vehicle thor-
oughly with lukewarm or cold water. Do
not allow soap to dry on the finish.
WARNING -
Wet brakes
After washing the vehicle, test the
brakes whilst driving slowly to see
if they have been affected by water.
If braking performance is impaired,
dry the brakes by applying them
lightly whilst maintaining a slow
forward speed.
CAUTION
 Water washing in the engine com- partment including high pressurewater washing may cause the fail- ure of electrical circuits located inthe engine compartment.
 Never allow water or other liquids to come in contact with electri-cal/electronic components inside the vehicle as this may damage
them.
OJB037800
CAUTION
 Do not use strong soap, chemical detergents or hot water, and donot wash the vehicle in direct
sunlight or when the body of thevehicle is warm.
 Be careful when washing the side windows of your vehicle.
Especially, with high-pressurewater, water may leak through the windows and wet the interior.
 To prevent damage to the plastic parts and lamps, do not clean
with chemical solvents or strongdetergents.

Underbody maintenance
Corrosive materials used for ice and
snow removal and dust control may col-
lect on the underbody. If these materials
are not removed, accelerated rusting can
occur on the underbody parts such as
the fuel lines, frame, floor pan and
exhaust system, even though they have
been treated with rust protection.
Thoroughly flush the vehicle underbody
and wheel openings with lukewarm or
cold water once a month, after off-road
driving and at the end of each winter. Payspecial attention to these areas because
it is difficult to see all the mud and dirt. It
will do more harm than good to wet down
the road grime without removing it. The
lower edges of the doors, rocker panels,
and frame members have drain holes
that should not clog with dirt; trapped
water in these areas can cause rusting.
Aluminum or chrome wheel mainte-
nance
The aluminum or chrome wheels are
coated with a clear protective finish.
 Do not use any abrasive cleaner, pol- ishing compound, solvent, or wire
brushes on aluminum or chrome
wheels. They may scratch or damagethe finish.
 Clean the wheel when it has cooled.
 Use only a mild soap or neutral deter- gent, and rinse thoroughly with water.
Also, be sure to clean the wheels after
driving on salted roads. This helps pre-
vent corrosion.
 Avoid washing the wheels with high- speed car wash brushes.
 Do not use any alkaline or acid deter- gent. It may damage and corrode the
aluminum or chrome wheels coated
with a clear protective finish.
WARNING
After washing the vehicle, test the
brakes whilst driving slowly to see
if they have been affected by water.
If braking performance is impaired,
dry the brakes by applying them
lightly whilst maintaining a slow
forward speed.

Maintenance
Canister
Fuel vapours generated inside the fuel tank are absorbed and stored in the
onboard canister. When the engine is
running, the fuel vapours absorbed in the
canister are drawn into the surge tank
through the purge control solenoid valve.
Purge Control Solenoid Valve (PCSV)
The purge control solenoid valve is con-
trolled by the Engine Control Module
(ECM); when the engine coolant temper-
ature is low during idling, the PCSV clos-
es so that evaporated fuel is not taken
into the engine. After the engine warms
up during ordinary driving, the PCSV
opens to introduce evaporated fuel to the
engine.3. Exhaust emission control
system
The Exhaust Emission Control System is
a highly effective system which controls
exhaust emissions whilst maintaining
good vehicle performance.
Vehicle modifications
 This vehicle should not be modified. Modification of your vehicle could
affect its performance, safety or dura-
bility and may even violate governmen-
tal safety and emissions regulations.
In addition, damage or performance
problems resulting from any modifica-
tion may not be covered under warran-
ty.
 If you use unauthorised electric devices, it may cause the vehicle to
operate abnormally, wire damage, bat-
tery discharge and fire. For your safety,
do not use unauthorised electric
devices.
Engine exhaust gas precautions (car-
bon monoxide)
 Carbon monoxide can be present with other exhaust fumes. Therefore, if you
smell exhaust fumes of any kind inside
your vehicle, have it inspected and
repaired immediately. If you ever sus-
pect exhaust fumes are coming into
your vehicle, drive it only with all the
windows fully open. Have your vehicle
checked and repaired immediately.
WARNING - Exhaust
Engine exhaust gases contain car-
bon monoxide (CO). Though
colourless and odourless, it is dan-
gerous and could be lethal if
inhaled. Follow the instructions on
this page to avoid CO poisoning.
