FUSES
❈ Left side : Normal
Right side : blown
A vehicle’s electrical system is pro-
tected from electrical overload dam-
age by fuses. This vehicle has 5 fuse panels, one
located in the driver’s side panel bol-
ster, the others in the engine com-
partment near the battery.
If any of your vehicle’s lights, acces-
sories, or controls do not work, check
the appropriate circuit fuse. If the fuse
becomes disconnected, the electricalsystem it protected will not function
properly. Therefore, replace the fuse.
If the electrical system does not work,
first check the driver’s side fuse panel.
In order to replace the fuse, turn off
the engine and switch of all electrical
system first. Then, disconnect the
negative battery cable of the fuse and
replace at a level and safe location.
Always replace a blown fuse with
one of the same rating. If
the replace-
ment fuse blows, this indicates an elec-
trical problem. Avoid using the system
involved and we recommend that you
consult an authorized Kia dealer.
Three kinds of fuses are used: blade
type for lower amperage rating, car-tridge type, and fusible link for higheramperage ratings.
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 alu- minum foil instead of the
proper fuse even as a tempo-
rary repair. It may cause
extensive wiring damage and
a possible fire.
Do not arbitrarily modify or add-on electric wiring of the
vehicle.

NOTICE
The actual fuse/relay panel label
may differ from equipped items.
CAUTION
When replacing a blown fuse or relay with a new one, makesure the new fuse or relay fitstightly into the clips. Theincomplete fastening fuse or relay may cause the vehiclewiring and electric systemsdamage and a possible fire.
Do not remove fuses, relays and terminals fastened withbolts or nuts. The fuses, relaysand terminals may be fas-tened incompletely, and it maycause a possible fire. If fuses, relays and terminals fastenedwith bolts or nuts are blown,we recommend that you con- sult an authorized Kia dealer.
Do not input any other objects except fuses or relays intofuse/relay terminals such as adriver or wiring. It may cause contact failure and systemmalfunction.
(Continued)
(Continued)
Do not plug in screwdrivers or aftermarket wiring into the ter-minal originally designed forfuse and relays only. The elec-trical system and wiring of thevehicle interior may be dam- aged or burned due to contactfailure.CAUTION
Do not use a screwdriver or anyother metal object to removefuses because it may cause ashort circuit and damage thesystem.

Maintenance
Inner panel fuse replacement
1. Turn the ignition switch and allother switches off.
2. Open the fuse panel cover. 3. Pull the suspected fuse straight
out. Use the removal tool provided
in the main fuse box in the engine
compartment.
4. Check the removed fuse; replace it if it is blown.
Spare fuses are provided in the
instrument panel fuse panel (or inthe engine compartment fuse panel).
5. Push in a new fuse of the same rating, and make sure it fits tightly
in the clips.
If it fits loosely, we recommend that
you consult an authorized Kia dealer.
If you do not have a spare, use a fuse of the same rating from a circuit youmay not need for operating the vehi-cle, such as the cigarette lighter fuse.
If the headlights or taillights, stop-
lights, courtesy lamp, day time run-
ning lights (D.R.L) do not work and
the fuses are OK, check the fuse
panel in the engine compartment. If a
fuse is blown, it must be replaced.
