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, accessories,
or controls do not work, check the appro-
priate circuit fuse. If the fuse is discon-
nected, every electrical system protected
by the fuse will not operate. Therefore,
you must change the fuse.
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 dealer.
Three kinds of fuses are used: blade type
for lower amperage rating, cartridge type
and multi fuse for higher amperage rat- ings.

According to electronics option of vehi-
cle, some fuse and relays written in bom
label could not be applied.OBK079042

WARNING - Fuse
replacement
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.
Do not change the electrical
wiring of the vehicle on your own.
CAUTION
Do not use a screwdriver or any
other metal object to remove fuses
because it may cause a short circuitand damage the system.

Aux, USB and iPod port (if equipped)
If your vehicle has an aux and/or
USB(universal serial bus) port or iPod
port, you can use an aux port to connect
audio devices and an USB port to plug in
an USB and also an iPod port to plug in
an iPod.
✽✽
NOTICE
When using a portable audio device
connected to the power outlet, noise may
occur during playback. If this happens,
use the power source of the portable
audio device.

CAUTION
Use the power outlet only when the
engine is running and remove the
accessory plug after use. Using theaccessory plug for prolonged peri-ods of time with the engine off could cause the battery to dis-
charge.
Only use 12V electric accessories which are less than 10A in electriccapacity.
Adjust the air-conditioner or heater to the lowest operating level whenusing the power outlet.
Close the cover when not in use. Some electronic devices can cause electronic interference when
plugged into a vehicle’s power out-let. These devices may causeexcessive audio static and malfunc- tions in other electronic systems or
devices used in your vehicle.WARNING
Do not put a finger or a foreign ele-
ment (pin, etc.) into a power outlet
and do not touch with a wet hand.
You may get an electric shock.

❈ The actual battery label in the vehicle
may differ from the illustration.
Battery capacity label
(see the example)
1. CMF60L-BCI : The Kia model name of battery
2. 12V : The nominal voltage
3. 60Ah(20HR) : The nominal capacity
(in Ampere hours)
4. 92RC : The nominal reserve capacity (in min.)
5. 550CCA : The cold-test current in
amperes by SAE
6. 440A : The cold-test current in amperes by EN Battery recharging
Your vehicle has a maintenance-free,
calcium-based battery.
If the battery becomes discharged in a
short time (because, for example, the
headlights or interior lights were left on
whilst the vehicle was not in use),
recharge it by slow charging (trickle)
for 10 hours.
If the battery gradually discharges because of high electric load whilst the
vehicle is being used, recharge it at 20-
30A for two hours.
(Continued)
The electrical ignition systemworks with high voltage. Never
touch these components with theengine running or the ignition
switched on.
Failure to follow the above warn-
ings can result in serious bodily
injury or death.
CAUTION
When you don’t use the vehicle for a long time in the low temper-ature area, separate the battery
and keep it indoors.
Always charge the battery fully to prevent battery case damage inlow temperature area.
If you connect unauthorised elec- tric devices to the battery, the bat-tery may be discharged. Never use unauthorised devices.
WARNING
Separating the battery from the
vehicle should be done in an autho-
rised Kia dealer.

Example
CAUTION
- AGM battery (if equipped)
Absorbent Glass Matt (AGM) bat-
teries are maintenance-free andwe recommend that the systembe serviced by an authorised Kia dealer. For charging your AGM
battery, use only fully automaticbattery chargers that are special- ly developed for AGM batteries.
When replacing the AGM battery, we recommend that you use parts
for replacement from an autho-rised Kia dealer.
