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 authorised Kia dealer.

If the ABS warning light or EBD warn-
ing light is on and stays on, the

effort may increase or decrease. In this
case, we recommend that the system be
