Features of your vehicle
Engine oil pressure warning light
This warning light indicates the
engine oil pressure is low.
If the warning light illuminates while
driving:
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, call
an authorized Kia dealer. The oil pressure warning light comes
on whenever there is insufficient oil
pressure. In normal operation, it
should come on when the ignition
switch is turned on, then go out when
the engine is started. If the oil pres-
sure warning light stays on while the
engine is running, there is a serious
malfunction.
Parking brake & brake
fluid warning light
Parking brake warning
This warning light illuminates for 3
seconds after the ignition switch is
turned to the ON position and then it
will go out.
Also, this light illuminates when the
parking brake is applied with the igni-
tion switch in the START or ON posi-
tion. The warning light should go out
when the parking brake is released.
CAUTION - Engine damage
If the engine is not stopped
immediately after the engine oilpressure warning light is illumi-nated and stays on while theengine is running, seriousengine damage may result.

Low brake fluid level warning
If the warning light remains on, it may
indicate that the brake fluid level in
the reservoir is low.
If the warning light remains on:
1.Drive carefully to the nearest safe
location and stop your vehicle.
2.With the engine stopped, check the brake fluid level immediately and
add fluid as required. Then check
all brake components for fluid
leaks.
3.Do not drive the vehicle if leaks are found, the warning light remains on
or the brakes do not operate prop-
erly. Have the vehicle towed to any
authorized Kia dealer for a brake
system inspection and necessary
repairs. Your vehicle is equipped with dual-
diagonal braking systems. This
means you still have braking on two
wheels even if one of the dual sys-
tems should fail. With only one of the
dual systems working, more than
normal pedal travel and greater
pedal pressure are required to stop
the vehicle. Also, the vehicle will not
stop in as short a distance with only
a portion of the brake system work-
ing. If the brakes fail while you are
driving, shift to a lower gear for addi-
tional engine braking and stop the
vehicle as soon as it is safe to do so.
To check bulb operation, check
whether the parking brake and brake
fluid warning light illuminates when
the ignition switch is in the ON posi-
tion.Charging system warn-
ing light
This warning light indicates a mal-
function of either the generator or
electrical charging system.
If the warning light illuminates while
the vehicle is in motion:
1.Drive to the nearest safe location.
2.With the engine off, check the gen- erator drive belt for looseness or
breakage.
3.If the belt is adjusted properly, a problem exists somewhere in the
electrical charging system. Have
an authorized Kia dealer correct
the problem as soon as possible.

Auto stop indicator
(if equipped)
This indicator will illuminate when the
engine enters the Idle Stop mode of
the ISG (Idle Stop and Go) system.
When the automatic starting occurs,
the auto stop indicator on the cluster
will blink for 5 seconds.
For more details, refer to the ISG
(Idle Stop and Go) system in chapter
5.
✽ ✽
NOTICE
When the engine automatically
starts by the ISG system, some
warning lights (ABS, ESC, ESC
OFF, ESC or Parking brake warn-
ing light) may turn on for a few sec-
onds.
This happens because of the low bat-
tery voltage. It does not mean the
system is malfunctioning.
