ROAD WARNING
Hazard warning flasher
The hazard warning flasher serves as
a warning to other drivers to exercise
extreme caution when approaching,
overtaking, or passing your vehicle. It should be used whenever emer-
gency repairs are being made or
when the vehicle is stopped near the
edge of a roadway.
Depress the flasher switch with the
Engine Start/Stop button in any posi-
tion. The flasher switch is located in
the center console switch panel. All
turn signal lights will flash simultane-
ously.
The hazard warning flasher oper-
ates whether your vehicle is run-
ning or not.
The turn signals do not work when the hazard flasher is on.
Care must be taken when using the hazard warning flasher while
the vehicle is being towed.

Please note that the TPMS is not a
substitute for proper tire maintenance,
and it is the driver’s responsibility to
maintain correct tire pressure, even if
under-inflation has not reached the
level to trigger illumination of the
TPMS low tire pressure telltale.Your vehicle has also been equipped
with a TPMS malfunction indicator to
indicate when the system is not oper-
ating properly. The TPMS malfunction
indicator is combined with the low tire
pressure telltale. When the system
detects a malfunction, the telltale will
flash for approximately one minute
and then remain continuously illumi-
nated. This sequence will continue
upon subsequent vehicle start-ups as
long as the malfunction exists.
When the malfunction indicator is illu-
minated, the system may not be able
to detect or signal low tire pressure
as intended. TPMS malfunctions may
occur for a variety of reasons, includ-
ing the installation of replacement or
alternate tires or wheels on the vehi-
cle that prevent the TPMS from func-
tioning properly. Always check the TPMS malfunction
telltale after replacing one or more
tires or wheels on your vehicle to
ensure that the replacement or alter-
nate tires and wheels allow the TPMS
to continue to function properly.
✽
NOTICE
If any of the below happens, have
the system be checked by an author-
ized K900 Kia dealer.
1.The low tire pressure telltale/
TPMS malfunction indicator does
not illuminate for 3 seconds when
the Engine Start/Stop button is
turned to the ON or engine is run-
ning.
2. The TPMS malfunction indicator remains illuminated after blinking
for approximately 1 minute.
3. The Low tire pressure position telltale remains illuminated.

Maintenance
Always handle them carefully, andavoid scratches and abrasions. If
the bulbs are lit, avoid contact with
liquids.
Never touch the glass with bare hands. Residual oil may cause the
bulb to overheat and burst when lit.
If a bulb becomes damaged or cracked, replace it immediately
and carefully dispose of it.
Wear eye protection when chang- ing a bulb. Allow the bulb to cool
down before handling it.Headlamp (HID/ LED type), front
position lamp, front turn signallamp, front fog lamp
If the light bulb is not operating, have
the vehicle checked by an authorized
K900 Kia dealer.
✽ NOTICE
If your vehicle is equipped with
High Intensity Discharge (HID)
headlights, these headlights contain
mercury. So if you need to have your
vehicle disposed, you should remove
the HID Headlights before disposal.
The removed HID headlights should
be recycled, re-used or disposed as
hazardous waste.

✽NOTICE
HID lamps have superior perform-
ance vs. halogen bulbs. HID lamps
are estimated by the manufacturer
to last twice as long or longer than
halogen bulbs depending on their
frequency of use. They will probably
require replacement at some point
in the life of the vehicle. Cycling the
headlamps on and off more than
typical use will shorten HID lamps
life. HID lamps do not fail in the
same manner as halogen incandes-
cent lamps. If a headlamp goes out
after a period of operation but will
immediately relight when the head-
lamp switch is cycled it is likely the
HID lamp needs to be replaced. HID
lighting components are more com-
plex than conventional halogen
bulbs thus have higher replacement
cost.
Side repeater light bulb
replacement
If the light bulb does not operate,
have the vehicle checked by an
authorized K900 Kia dealer. A skilled
technician should check or repair the
side repeater light, for it may damage
