Backing up
Hold the bottom of the steering
wheel with one hand. Then, to move
the trailer to the left, just move your
hand to the left. To move the trailer to
the right, move your hand to the
right. Always back up slowly and, if
possible, have someone guide you.
Making turns
When you’re turning with a trailer,
make wider turns than normal. Do
this so your trailer won’t strike soft
shoulders, kerbs, road signs, trees,
or other objects. Avoid jerky or sud-
den manoeuvres. Signal well in
advance.
Turn signals when towing a trailer
When you tow a trailer, your vehicle
has to have a different turn signal
flasher and extra wiring. The green
arrows on your instrument panel will
flash whenever you signal a turn or
lane change. Properly connected,
the trailer lights will also flash to alert
other drivers you’re about to turn,
change lanes, or stop.
When towing a trailer, the green
arrows on your instrument panel will
flash for turns even if the bulbs on the
trailer are burned out. Thus, you may
think drivers behind you are seeing
your signals when, in fact, they are
not. It is important to check occasion-
ally to be sure the trailer bulbs are still
working. You must also check the
lights every time you disconnect and
then reconnect the wires.
Do not connect a trailer lighting sys-
tem directly to your vehicle’s lighting
system. Use only an approved trailer
wiring harness.
An authorised Kia dealer can assist
you in installing the wiring harness.WARNING
Failure to use an approved trail- er wiring harness could result
in damage to the vehicle electri-
cal system and/or personal
injury.

WARNING - Diesel Engine
Never work on injection system with engine running or within 30seconds after shutting off
engine. High-pressure pump,
rail, injectors and high-pressurepipes are subject to high pres-
sure even after the engine
stopped. The fuel jet produced by
fuel leaks may cause serious
injury, if it touches the body.
People using pacemakers
should not move than 30cm clos-er to the ECU or wiring harness
within the engine room whilst
engine is running, since the high
currents in the electronic engine
control system produce consid-
erable magnetic fields.CAUTION
Do not put heavy objects or apply excessive force on top ofthe engine cover (if equipped)or fuel related parts.
When you inspect the fuel system (fuel lines and fuelinjection devices), we recom- mend that you contact anauthorised Kia dealer.
Do not drive long time with the engine cover (if equipped)removed.
When checking the engine room, do not go near fire.
Fuel, washer fluid, etc. areflammable oils that may cause fire.
Before touching the battery, ignition cables and electricalwiring, you should disconnectthe battery "-" terminal. You may get an electric shockfrom the electric current.
(Continued)
(Continued) When you remove the interior trim cover with a flat head (-)driver, be careful not to dam-age the cover.
Be careful when you replace and clean bulbs to avoidburns or electrical shock.

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 engine compartment fusepanel.
4. Check the removed fuse; replace it if it is blown.
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 authorised Kia dealer.

LIGHT BULBS
Use only the bulbs of the specified
wattage.
✽✽ NOTICE
After driving in heavy rain or wash-
ing the vehicle, headlight and tail-
light lenses could appear foggy. This
condition is caused by the tempera-
ture difference between the lamp
inside and outside. This is similar to
the condensation on your windows
inside your vehicle during rain and
does not indicate a problem with
your vehicle. If the water leaks into
the lamp bulb circuitry, we recom-
mend that the system be checked by
an authorised Kia dealer.WARNING - Working on
the lights
Prior to working on the light,
firmly apply the parking brake,
ensure that the ignition switch
is turned to the “LOCK” position
(smart key: turn off the engine)
and turn off the lights to avoid
sudden movement of the vehi-
cle and burning your fingers or
getting an electric shock.
CAUTION
Be sure to replace the burned- out bulb with one of the samewattage rating. Otherwise, it may cause damage to the fuseor electric wiring system.
CAUTION
If you do not have necessarytools, the correct bulbs and theexpertise, we recommend that you consult an authorised Kiadealer. In many cases, it is diffi-cult to replace vehicle lightbulbs because other parts of the vehicle must be removed beforeyou can get to the bulb. This isespecially true if you have to remove the headlight assemblyto get to the bulb(s).
Removing/installing the head-light assembly can result indamage to the vehicle.
