■■Lamp part malfunction due to
net-work failure
The headlamp, taillight, and fog light
may lit up when the head lamp switch
is turned ON, and not light up when
the taillight or for light switch is turned
ON. This may be cause by network
failure or vehicle electrical control
system malfunction. If there is a prob-
lem, we recommend the system be
serviced by an authorized Kia dealer.
■
■ Lamp part malfunction due to
electrical control system stabi-lization
A normally functioning lamp may
flicker momentarily. This momentaryoccurrence is due to stabilization
unction of the vehicle's electrical on
control system. If the lamp soon
returns to normal, the vehicle does
not require service.
However, if the lamp goes out after
he momentary flickering, or the flick-
ering continues, we recommend the
system be serviced by an authorized
Kia dealer.
✽✽ NOTICE
If the light bulb or lamp connector is removed from an operating lamp
activated by electricity, the fuse
box’s electronic device may scan it
as a malfunction. Therefore, a lamp
malfunction history may be record-
ed in Diagnostic Trouble Code
(DTC) in the fuse box.
It is normal for an operating lamp may blink temporarily. Since this
occurrence is due stabilization
function of the vehicle’s electronic
control device, if the lamp lights up
normally after temporary blinking,
there is no problem in the vehicle.
However, if the lamp continues to
blink several times or turn off com-
pletely, there may be an error in the
vehicle’s electronic control device.
So we recommend that you have
the vehicle checked by an author-
ized Kia dealer immediately. ✽✽
NOTICE
After driving in heavy rain or wash-
ing, headlamp and taillamp lenses
could appear frosty. This condition is
caused by the temperature differ-
ence between the lamp inside and
outside. This is similar to the con-
densation on your windows inside
your vehicle during the rain and
doesn’t indicate a problem with your
vehicle. If the water leaks into the
lamp bulb circuitry, have the vehicle
checked by an authorized Kia dealer.

(Continued) A bulb should be operated
only when installed in a head-light.

ly and carefully dispose of it.
Wear eye protection when changing a bulb. Allow the
bulb to cool down before han-dling it.

WARNING - Halogen
bulbs
Halogen bulbs contain pres- surized gas that will produce
flying pieces of glass if broken.
Always handle them carefully, and avoid scratches and abra-
sions. 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 burstwhen lit.

✽✽
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 halo-
gen bulbs depending on their fre-
quency of use. They will probably
require replacement at some point in
the life of the vehicle. Cycling the
headlamps on and off more than typ-
ical use will shorten HID lamps life.
HID lamps do not fail in the same
manner as halogen incandescent
lamps. If a headlamp goes out after a
period of operation but will immedi-
ately relight when the headlamp
switch is cycled it is likely the HID
lamp needs to be replaced. HID light-
ing components are more complex
than conventional halogen bulbs thus
have higher replacement cost.Side repeater lamp replacement
